For OTL this week, we have Brandon Forsyth, a book buyer at Indigo. This episode of On The Line is brought to you by Airbnb. It's no secret that Canada is in a housing crisis. Some think that short-term rentals such as Airbnbs are the problem. But the closer you look, the clearer it gets. Attempts to lower rents by regulating short-term rentals have failed in cities like New York City – which is experiencing record high rents a year after doing so. Canada doesn't need more regulation; it needs more supply. And Airbnbs that could be converted into long-term homes account for only 0.6% of Canada's housing stock. Learn more at Airbnb.ca/closerlook.In this wide-ranging conversation Jen Gerson and Forsyth chat about his recommendations for fiction and non-fiction summer reads. This episode is also brought to you by the Métis Nation of Ontario. It's Sault Ste. Marie in the 1850s. The Upper Great Lakes and rivers of northern Ontario are bustling during the summers with the sound of paddles. Sault Ste. Marie, Fort William, Fort Frances. For Métis voyageurs, these were the highways of a growing trade. Summer was for moving canoes packed with salted fish and furs. Stops were made at supply depots run by Métis families. And a thriving economy was built on a network of Métis communities stretching across the Upper Great Lakes westward. These Métis routes became the arteries of Canada's first economy. This July, while Canadians enjoy their vacations, remember the Métis who spent summers building Canada's first economy. To learn more, visit OntarioMetisFacts.comThen they get spicy, talking about deeper trends driving book sales in the culture. Gerson offers a host of opinions on what genres of books are good and bad, as well as whether or not Millennials have a writing voice. Strong arguments are offered on whether adults should be reading childrens' books. Forsyth's book recommendations: FICTIONSLOW HORSES by Mick HerronMURDERBOT by Martha Wells KATABASIS by R.F.

It's July 4th! And we're celebrating by pretending it's July 5th. Hey, anything to get another day closer to the end of the Trump regime! But to be more precise about it, we're pretending it's July 5, 2019. Why? Well, July 5, 2024 wasn't a particularly uplifting moment in time for us. But the day after Trump's first attempt at a Washington, DC “military parade?” That's entertainment! So we're re-running the July 5, 2019 episode, which Scott Anderson originally summarized this way: But… Did. They. Get. Off?  The rain was almost… almost like a “sign” from above that yesterday's greatest show in history would be the hugest lesson in irony. In that, it did not disappoint.  David Waldman takes us through Donald Trump's history lesson on ramming the ramparts at airports during the Revolution. If you think Trump sees history in a strange way, wait until you hear how he sees himself. Profile in courage Donald Trump wishes he could be the good person he really is inside... it's just that you provoke him so. An open letter to the director of the US Holocaust Memorial Museum states why we again need to say Never Again. Trump tries to come up with a way to rig the Census that someone will believe, but why bother when lies work so well? Oregon's governor uses her executive powers for good. Cheese and whiskey are targeted in the US's latest proposed tariffs on EU, as the Jim Beam bourbon warehouse is allowed to burn down to keep from polluting the water. What will the Gop do without the NRA? The Indian government already has a plan in place for dealing with Ivanka Trump-like intrusion. Serena Blaiz—Daily Kos' peacearena—reports on the expanding local news desert, and the unexpected hits on your local economy.

“I was following my North Star and definitely loving what I was doing—just not how I was doing it.” ~ Molly CarrollI'll never forget waking up one morning in Costa Rica while leading a women's retreat. Surrounded by yoga, healthy food, and meaningful transformation, I should've felt alive and fulfilled. But instead, I felt utterly exhausted.So I took a solo walk on the beach—not to escape, but to survive.Even though I was in my zone of genius—supporting others and sharing tools for healing—I was deeply burned out. At the time, I had over 30 clients, was writing books, had just finished a TED Talk, was running retreats, parenting two kids, and helping care for my mother as she battled cancer. I was giving everything I had to everyone else.But underneath it all, I was fighting internal demons: shame, perfectionism, fear I wasn't doing enough—or being enough—as a therapist, mom, wife, and daughter.I was experiencing what Scott Anderson, our guest this week on the Cracking Open podcast, calls burnout.And wow… do I wish I had Scott's work back then.But lucky for all of us—he's here now. And he's here to help you.Scott Anderson is the author of You're Not Toast and founder of DoubleDare, a coaching organization helping high-achieving professionals break free from burnout. With 30+ years of business ownership, therapy training, and ICF coaching credentials, Scott's work blends business acumen with a deep understanding of the emotional and mental toll burnout takes.Scott's own story is one of profound transformation. After losing his son Max to addiction, Scott found himself broken, exhausted, and questioning everything. That grief led him to reevaluate his life, uncover his values, and rebuild with more humility and purpose.From this space, the Burnout Breakthrough Method was born—a framework that helps people reconnect with their energy, release emotional weight, and create sustainable, joyful success.In today's conversation, we talk about:✨ What burnout really is (hint: it's not just being tired)✨ Why high-achievers are most at risk✨ The intersection of grief, purpose, and healing✨ How to recover quickly and permanently from burnout✨ Why passion isn't enough—and how to work in a way that doesn't cost your health or soulIf you're feeling exhausted, disconnected, or like you're carrying the weight of the world, let this episode be your own beach walk—an invitation to slow down, reflect, and reconnect.Because there's more joy available to you than you could ever imagine.

In a live conversation on May 30, Lawfare Editor in Chief Benjamin Wittes sat down with Lawfare Senior Editors Anna Bower, Scott Anderson, and Roger Parloff to discuss legal challenges against President Trump's executive actions, including two court rulings finding President Trump's IEEPA tariffs to be unlawful, the government's appeal of those rulings, the Supreme Court allowing Trump to end humanitarian status for 500,000 migrants, updates in CREW's Freedom of Information Act lawsuit against DOGE, and so much more.You can find information on legal challenges to Trump administration actions here.

Burnout is more than exhaustion—it's often a sign that we're clinging to outdated roles, habits, or expectations. Scott Anderson, a licensed mental health therapist and founder of Double Dare, views burnout as a form of “self-inflicted suffering” that can serve as a wake-up call for personal transformation. His work redefines success, urging individuals to listen to their internal signals rather than push harder through stress. Through tools like the Genius Zone framework and the R&R Technique, Scott helps high achievers realign with what truly matters. He guides clients in identifying the few tasks that create the greatest impact, while also addressing emotional blocks like perfectionism, guilt, and resentment. By combining strategic delegation with emotional clarity—especially the power of self-forgiveness—Scott enables people to reduce overwhelm and reconnect with meaning in their work and life. For anyone feeling burnt out, disengaged, or overwhelmed, Scott's book You're Not Toast offers a powerful, practical roadmap to recovery. It's designed for entrepreneurs, leaders, and professionals ready to reclaim control and restore clarity. Visit his website to learn more and access his proven burnout recovery resources.

Have you ever wondered if your drive for success could be holding your business back? In this episode of Predictable B2B Success, host Vinay Koshy sits down with Scott Anderson, serial entrepreneur, author of You're Not Toast, and founder of Double Dare, to expose the hidden dangers of burnout for high-achieving professionals and founders. Scott shares his raw journey: from launching 10 companies and selling eight to hitting a wall of exhaustion that sleep, weekends, and vacations couldn't fix. You'll discover why the very grit and hustle that fuel growth in the early days can quietly transform into a ceiling on your revenue—and even endanger your health and business. Scott unpacks the subtle signals leaders often miss, explains why hustle culture is not a strategy for scalable success, and reveals actionable techniques, like his 5-second R&R method, to break the burnout cycle quickly. If you're secretly feeling stuck, tired, or can't scale past that next revenue milestone, this conversation will challenge everything you think you know about perseverance, leadership, and growth. Tune in to learn how saying no and letting go might be your smartest business move this year. Some areas we explore in this episode include: Scott Anderson's Personal Burnout Experience: How Scott recognized his own burnout and began seeking solutions.Burnout in High Achievers: Why successful professionals are especially at risk of burnout.The Double-Edged Sword of Perseverance: How traits that drive business success can also lead to burnout.Scaling Challenges and Revenue Plateaus: Mistakes entrepreneurs make when trying to grow their businesses beyond early milestones.Early Warning Signs of Burnout: Key symptoms and overlooked indicators of burnout in leaders.Delegation and Building Systems: The need for founders to delegate and build scalable systems to prevent burnout and enable growth.Shifting Leadership Mindsets: Moving from founder-centric leadership to a more humble, team-oriented approach.Hustle Culture vs. Sustainable Growth: Debunking the myth that nonstop hustling leads to long-term success.Practical Burnout Prevention Techniques: Tools like the R and R Technique for managing stress on the go.Implementing the Burnout Breakthrough Method: How Scott's approach boosts cognitive capacity and resilience for leaders and their teams.And much, much more...

From January 16, 2024: Over the last two months, Houthi militants have waged more than 27 attacks against merchant shipping and U.S. and partner forces in the Red Sea, the Gulf of Aden, and the Bab al-Mandeb Strait, purportedly in response to the war in Gaza. These attacks have significantly disrupted global shipping and surged the Middle East into an even more precarious security situation. Following a large-scale Houthi attack on U.S. and British ships, the U.S. and U.K. on Jan. 11 launched over 150 munitions targeting almost 30 Houthi sites in Yemen. The U.S. on Jan. 12 carried out another strike on a Houthi radar facility. The Houthis have since retaliated with multiple strikes targeting U.S. forces. Yesterday, the Houthis for the first time successfully struck a cargo ship owned and operated by the United States.Lawfare Research Fellow Matt Gluck sat down with Gregory Johnsen, the Associate Director of the Institute for Future Conflict at the U.S. Air Force Academy and Lawfare Senior Editor Scott R. Anderson to discuss the spate of Houthi attacks, the U.S. response and the associated domestic and international law questions, and where the fighting is likely to go from here. What can history tell us about the possible paths forward? Why did the U.S. act when it did? What's in it for the Houthis? They chewed over these questions and more.
