Today, we are joined by Adam Duckworth, founder of Travelmation, a travel agency aimed at creating unforgettable experiences and one of the most recognizable advisor communities. In this episode he covers Travelmation's intense evolution, from what began as a hobby and love for helping families plan their trips to a community of 2,500 advisors today. He delves deeper into the evolution of the travel industry, highlighting rising and continuing trends such as the use of AI and multi-generational travel, and secret weapons for travel advisors tuning in. Additionally, he offers insight on Sandals and Beaches Resorts' special offerings, why Beaches should be on every family's travel bucket list, and which Sandals and Beaches resorts are at the top of his list.

Send us a textWe're joined today by Katie Ramsay-Gough, a car enthusiast and Director of Driven Minds, a support group promoting mental health awareness in the motorsport paddock.You can find out more about Driven Minds here: Home - Driven MindsKatie, by her own admission has a terrible memory, but with some pre-show reminders from her brother she recalls a green Rover saloon as her earliest car memory. It was an ex-company car, not much to look at by all accounts, although treated to a slippery car valet prior to their purchase, and the greasy residue from the interior treatment remained on the door handles for the entirety of their ownership. After the Rover came a dark blue VW Bora, followed by a VW Passat.We later hear about an Audi A5, which had to be rescued from the Silverstone circuit paddock after a wet British Grand Prix weekend. Whilst there were 4x4's on hand to pull cars out the mud, they were also removing bumpers at the same time! Luckily the local Rugby Club had been called up to do the work by hand, and with Katie asking nicely, she recruited plenty of blokes to free them from the quagmire. Katies husband does some racing in his spare time, and Katie is involved with the Citroen C2 racing club, so talk turns to this relatively cheap and incredibly close series, and how she crashed a C2 on a track day too! Talking of which, her Mum once crashed her car due to a loose sandal, and her feet hitting the wrong pedals.We hope you enjoy this episode. Support the showWe'd love you to hear and share your stories, please tag and follow us on social media. www.instagram.com/mydadscar_podcastwww.Facebook.com/mydadscar podcastwww.buymeacoffee.com/mydadscarIf you'd like to support the podcast and are able to, you can ‘buy us a coffee' which will help towards costs of hosting and purchasing equipment to allow us to record guests in person, rather than just on zoom.

Today's devotion is written by Rocio Hermes.

The fire of God transforms us into true disciples—known not just by name, but by lifestyle. As disciples, we are called to walk not just in the Spirit's power, but also in the peace of God. Peace is not found not in circumstances but in Jesus Himself, and it is what sustains us through trials and challenges in life. So let us walk daily in the gospel—His Word—bearing fruit and bringing His peace wherever we go.

Today, we're diving into the deep end with Tiffany Duong, Scuba Diver, Environmental Journalist and Ocean Advocate. Originally a Renewable Energy Attorney, everything changed for Duong after her first dive. Today, Duong shares her experiences diving at five different Sandals resorts, Curacao, Grenada, and three in Jamaica, highlighting the most memorable sites at each! She also goes into environmental education, giving some helpful and easy tips and tricks on protecting our oceans through simple, everyday choices.

There's been a lot of action in the world of footwear fashion – especially legal action involving claims and counter-claims about cheap fakes of expensive originals, and also expensive rip-offs of cheaper originals. First it was the crocs, the uniquely shaped perforated sandals. The American company which makes them, Crocs Inc., is pursuing legal action against several Indian companies, including the likes of Bata and Liberty, for copying their visual design and “passing off” their product as crocs. Then we have the case of Italian luxury fashion brand Prada, which has been facing heat in India after it showcased men's ‘Toe-ring Sandals' that looked a lot like Kolhapuri chappals. And now we have the German sandal brand Birkenstock getting court approval to inspect factories in India and seize counterfeit Birkenstock sandals. Are these three cases comparable? How exactly does the copyright regime work in the fashion world? And why are Indians crazy for Birkenstocks? In Part 2, we shift focus to the cultural and fashion dimensions of the sandal scandal, examining how Crocs, Birkenstocks, and even Kolhapuris became trend statements.

I don't know about you, but when I hear about travel agents I quickly think about My Big Fat Greek Wedding. Chances are, you do too. Whatever happened to travel agents? They're not just still around but what they offer is changing with the times and helping plan stress free vacations without spending a penny more than DIY bookings. Shocking right? Stephani Izzo, a travel expert specializing in Sandals, Beaches and Disney, breaks down the modern travel agent experience, dispelling myths along the way. The biggest revelation? Using an agent typically costs exactly the same as booking yourself!"When you have an issue, you don't have to call an 800 number and press two to talk to someone. You just call us," Stephani explains. Travel agents often know about flight delays before their clients do, allowing them to solve problems proactively. This level of service becomes invaluable because let's be real- we go on vacation to take a break for managing lists of details. Ready to experience the difference? Stephani and Kayty are leading a girls' getaway to Sandals Royal Caribbean this September—a perfect opportunity to try the all-inclusive experience with a friendly group. Whether you join organized activities or simply relax poolside, this trip offers the perfect introduction to stress-free travel planning.Isn't it time your vacations felt like actual vacations?

Father Shawn McCain Tirres on July 13, 2025 Reflecting on Resurrection South Austin's 10th anniversary, Father Shawn explores Jesus' sending of the 72 disciples with nothing but faith and God's provision. Drawing from his own family's leap of faith in moving from California to start this church, he challenges the congregation to consider how we pursue God's mission - not through worldly means of power, possessions, or strategic planning, but through radical dependence on God's ways. He examines the tension between effectiveness and faithfulness, warning against the temptation to compromise the gospel message for comfort, growth, or to avoid upsetting the powerful. The sermon calls the church community to continue "traveling light" with Jesus, pursuing both the aims and the means of God's kingdom as they announce God's peace and healing to their South Austin neighbors.

Fulfillment does not come from external achievements or possessions, but from offering your true, flawed self to the world. Jesus sends us, empowered by grace.By Rev. Simon Park

Why would the Creator of the universe wear dusty sandals and walk among the people He made? This thought-provoking piece explores how Jesus’ incarnation redefines our understanding of humility, authority, and the nature of true leadership. Far from distant, the divine stepped into history — with skin, sandals, and scars.

Send us a textThis week, I sit down with Ray Ahn, founding member and bassist of the iconic Aussie band Hard-Ons. From their early days tearing up Sydney's underground scene to their lasting impact on alternative and skate culture, Ray shares stories from the road, reflections on identity and art, and the resilience it takes to stay true to your craft for over four decades.We talk about the band's bold decision to bring Tim Rogers on as lead vocalist, life lessons learned along the way, and why Hard-Ons' music has always been a perfect match for skateboarding and DIY culture. Recorded on location at their Marrickville studio, Ray told me, "This will be the last podcast I ever do."

Picture a young girl planting grapevines at age ten, later rushing to shower and change so she could conduct wine tastings, occasionally interrupted by phone calls about escaped goats reaching the local Walgreens. This storybook childhood, filled with family meatball subs, gardening, and winemaking, formed the foundation for her multifaceted career.Unexpected connections are a recurring theme throughout her life which led her through restaurant ownership, culinary achievements, and eventually to a devastating period during COVID when she lost her 18-year restaurant business through divorce.The turning point? A chance conversation with a stranger on an airplane that connected her to Provocativo, where she now serves as executive winemaker, partnering with pop star Bebe Rexha to create organic sparkling wines that rival champagne at half the price. Her story serves as a powerful reminder that resilience, openness to unexpected opportunities, and the courage to embrace multiple passions can transform even our hardest moments into stepping stones toward fulfilling work.Ready to taste what Brianna has created?

18 restaurants, feeding countless A-List celebrities and leading the plant based food scene sounds like the making of a riddle, but is the reality of our guests Mark. Over the years we've all heard the term plant based but what does it actually mean? Can it actually be good enough that it's highly sought after by foodies worldwide? A health crisis transformed Mark's relationship with food forever. After receiving a rare blood cancer diagnosis, he immersed himself in nutritional research while undergoing treatment. What emerged was not just a personal healing journey but the foundation for culinary innovation that would reshape Australia's plant-based dining landscape.Mark's approach is refreshingly approachable. Through his 18 restaurants  across Melbourne, Sydney, and Byron Bay—he aspires to create vibrant spaces where food brings people together without dietary labels creating division.His debut cookbook, "This Cookbook is a Huge Mistake" (named after a neon sign in one of his restaurants) emerged during Australia's lengthy COVID lockdowns. Quarantined alone in a hotel room for two weeks, Mark reflected on his culinary journey, documenting recipes and life lessons that had shaped his path. The result combines practical plant-based techniques with personal stories and his trademark pun-filled humor.Beyond business success, Mark's most treasured accomplishment is the community he's built—including unexpected friendships with the Hemsworth family, who began as regular customers and became devoted supporters. Through beautiful, thoughtful food that momentarily transports guests away from daily stress, Mark reminds us that gathering around a table is ultimately about connection, not just nutrition.Try something from this cookbook. Your taste buds will thank you, and you might just find yourself reimagining what plant-based eating can be.This Episode is Sponsored by: Travel with Stephani- Are you looking to plan a vacation for your family this Summer?

In 1984, in a small city in northeastern China, a security guard stood outside of a warehouse, working an overnight shift. The guard heard a noise coming from some bushes nearby, but he didn't think much about it. This was a safe town, and usually the hardest part of his job was staying awake. But suddenly, two thieves in ski masks emerged from the bushes, and rushed the guard. They grabbed him, and slammed his head against the outside wall of the warehouse, and the guard fell to the ground in a daze. One of the thieves quickly gagged the guard, bound his hands and feet, and said he needed to keep his mouth shut if he wanted to stay alive. Terrified, and struggling to keep his eyes open, the guard watched as the two thieves opened the warehouse door and ran inside. This robbery would shake the local community, but it was nothing in comparison to the horrific crimes it would set off, and the gruesome discovery the police would soon make on the outskirts of town.For 100s more stories like these, check out our main YouTube channel just called "MrBallen" -- https://www.youtube.com/c/MrBallenIf you want to reach out to me, contact me on Instagram, Twitter or any other major social media platform, my username on all of them is @mrballenSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

 It seemed like over the past few weeks EVERYONE was talking about the new release, Pretty Delicious created by Food Dolls, and I knew I had to have them on the show to talk more about the book and the heart behind it! Our conversation takes you behind the scenes with this dynamic sister duo who, surprisingly, didn't always love cooking. Growing up as first-generation Americans with Egyptian parents, they actually avoided helping in the kitchen whenever possible! Their journey to becoming well loved recipe developers and food stylists began when they had families of their own and started calling each other daily with the question: "What are you making for dinner tonight?" They introduce listeners to game-changing ingredients like sumac (a lemony herb), za'atar (an earthy spice blend), and pomegranate molasses (a must try if you love balsamic glaze). When they describe tahini as "the Middle Eastern version of peanut butter" that you can spread on toast with honey, you'll immediately want to explore these flavors in your own kitchen.Rather than pursuing Instagram perfection, we frame beautiful food as "carving out moments of joy" in everyday life, instead of striving for perfection. Ready to bring Mediterranean magic to your table?  Follow the Food Dolls @fooddolls on all platforms and grab their cookbook for 110 approachable recipes that will transform your everyday cooking with minimal effort and maximum flavor.This Episode is Sponsored by: Travel with Stephani- Are you looking to plan a vacation for your family this Summer?

I'll be honest, for years my knowledge of Mexican cuisine consisted of Tortilla chips, salsa and If I really wanted to live on the edge, some queso, too! It wasn't until I went to Mexico my Senior year of high school that I experienced REAL authentic cuisine and the flavors that quickly showed me what I was missing! Today's guest Freddsters shares how his families recipes can give you these very flavors at home...with ease! Freddsters worked as a private chef for MLB players before turning his culinary talents to social media during the pandemic. What began as casual posting evolved into a full-fledged career after landing his first brand partnership.The conversation turns to his cookbook, which brilliantly bridges traditional Mexican recipes with incredible fusion dishes like Mexican chicken parmesan and street corn potato salad. Discover the story behind Fredddsters' signature product, Salsa Macha (a Mexican-style chili crisp), and learn why this versatile condiment works splendidly on everything from traditional Mexican dishes to pasta, pizza, and fried chicken.

We all can remember a time in our lives when we felt inadequate for something—parenting, a new job, or an unexpected life event. It's during these times that we can't help but think, "I can't do this."In this message, Jill teaches us how we can follow God's will for our lives by not only saying, "I can," but also saying, "I will." Jill tells the story about Stuart, at the age of 17, being asked to teach about the Church at Ephesus. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1141/29

Send us a textI dive into the complex world of narcissism—what it really is, how it shows up in ourselves, and the impact it has on mental health and relationships.

I sat down with Kris Dehnert, founder of Dugout Mugs and the man behind MLB's fastest-growing licensee. This conversation hits different. Kris shared his journey from getting fired from nearly every job to building a $30 million company selling mugs made from baseball bat barrels. What struck me most was his near-death experience with a ruptured appendix that completely transformed his mindset about business and life. His story of almost dying with a poison ball the size of a football inside him led to a complete shift—from chasing money to designing a lifestyle focused on family and experiences. Kris now lives unapologetically authentic, building deep relationships instead of shallow connections. We talked about the illusion of time and control, how failure is actually "entrepreneurial yoga," and why focusing on money actually creates money problems. This episode is packed with real talk about what actually matters when building a business and a life worth living.We Meet:Connect:Connect with Rick: https://linktr.ee/mrrickjordanConnect with Kris: http://Facebook.com/DugoutMugSubscribe & Review to ALL IN with Rick Jordan on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/RickJordanALLINAbout Kris: Over the last 14 years, I have found success in numerous verticals, including real estate, apparel, hard goods, affiliate marketing, strategic partnerships, etc... but my focus has really been rooted in eCommerce and social media where I have managed to surpass $60 million dollars in sales online. What makes my story a little more unique is that I did it on my terms. Sandals, shorts, backwards hats, and just being as genuine as I could be. I literally was FIRED from every (except one) job I ever had because I insisted on doing it my way... What I found is that I needed to create the "job" I wanted.

Send us a textThis week, we hangout with Jorge Tichbon — aka Swellbows — to talk slams, soundtracks, digital animation, and the originality he brings to a genre of skateboarding that may lack it at times. From early days goon-bagging around the skate parks of the Gold Coast to the years he spent living in Texas USA, Jorge breaks down the injuries that earned him his nickname, the mental grind of bouncing back, and the constant stream of creativity flowing through him.  We get into skate crews, DIY culture, and how music and skating have always been two sides of the same coin. If you know, you know. Stories, laughs, and pure love for the scene, this is Swellbows (with a hang-over).ShanWATCH: Swellbows mic'ed up skating Bar Beach bowlSupport the show and get discounts (Click on the links):FINANCIALLY SUPPORT THE SHOW  in exchange, I will get the HIGHEST CALIBRE guests MORE OFTEN.
