You follow Demetri Papanicolau's winding path from Fidelity financial consultant to full-time booking agent and working musician, discovering how taking risks, saying yes to scary gigs, and learning from every stage moment shaped his career. You hear how singing AC/DC and Zeppelin in high school, drilling Beatles harmonies, and navigating the evolution from originals to covers built the chops he still relies on today. As you ride through stories of surprise band formations, COVID-era pivots, and the birth of Rotten Apple, you're reminded that you must Always Be Performing, even when the gig you expected turns into something entirely different. You also step inside Demetri's world at Notso Costley Productions, where booking is equal parts diplomacy, coaching, and reading the room. He breaks down what venues actually want, what musicians consistently get wrong, and how reliability wins more than draw. You learn how he balances the needs of solos, duos, trios, and full bands; why non-verbal communication and a good hang matter; how to build an EPK that gets you on a roster; and what happens when rates rise across the scene. Through it all, Demetri shows how being both booker and performer lets him guide bands and venues toward smoother nights, stronger partnerships, and gigs that keep everyone coming back. 00:00:00 Gig Gab 512 – Monday, December 15th, 2025 December 15th: National Cupcake Day Guest co-host: Demetri Papanicolau from Notso Costley Productions NAMM coming up!

This week on Perfectly Twisted, we welcome Dr. Suraj Samtani, featured expert from the powerful documentary Chris Hemsworth: A Roadtrip to Remember. We kick things off with a brief breakdown of the documentary, which follows Chris Hemsworth as he explores cutting-edge science, lifestyle changes, and longevity practices aimed at protecting brain health and reducing the risk of neurodegenerative disease—while confronting what it really means to live well, not just longer. Dr. Samtani joins us to discuss natural, practical ways to support brain and body health, including lifestyle habits that may help reduce dementia risk, support cognitive function, and improve quality of life. We talk movement, nutrition, stress, sleep, and the small daily shifts that can make a meaningful difference—at any age. It's an empowering, informative conversation focused on prevention, awareness, and hope, without fear or  overwhelm. #PerfectlyTwisted #BrainHealth #Longevity #CognitiveHealth #PreventativeHealth #DementiaAwareness #WellnessJourney #HealthyAging #MindBodyConnection #ChrisHemsworth #ARoadtripToRemember #NeuroHealth Give us a subscribe, like and review!

Send us a textA father that gives birth, a horse that says “no,” and an ER doctor who wants to keep you out of the hospital—this episode brings science and everyday choices into sharp focus. We start with a mind-bending dive into seahorses, where males carry the pregnancy and build a placenta-like environment from skin. New research shows familiar pregnancy genes at work inside the brood pouch, but with an unexpected hormonal switch: androgens, not estrogens, drive gestation. It's evolution repurposing its toolkit—and a powerful reminder that sex roles in nature are more flexible than we think.From there, we move into animal-assisted therapy and the role of consent in touch. A new study comparing dogs and horses found that forced interactions with horses raised heart rate and lowered HRV, signaling more stress, while choice calmed people down. Dogs showed no significant difference between conditions, suggesting human perception and species-specific behavior shape outcomes. If you run therapy programs, the insight is simple and humane: build animal choice into sessions, especially with horses, and track long-term welfare alongside human benefits.Then ER physician Dr. Shazma Mithani joins us to turn insight into prevention. We talk helmets for anything on wheels or snow, why e‑scooters drive more severe injuries per use than bikes, and how regular checkups and screening prevent emergencies before they start. We break down wildfire smoke—how particulates inflame lungs and harm the heart and brain—plus when to wear a well-fitted N95 outside and how to upgrade home air with MERV 11–13 filters or HEPA purifiers. Finally, we tackle measles: an airborne virus that lingers for hours, demands 95% vaccination for herd immunity, and is best stopped with two doses of MMR. Unsure where to get trusted answers? Talk to your doctor, pharmacist, or public health nurse, and lean on credible sources rather than influencers.If this helped you think differently about biology, safety, or public health, tap follow, share it with a friend, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway—we'll feature our favorites next week.Dr. Shazma Mithani's links:Her websiteHer PodcastInstagramOur links!Support the showFor Science, Empathy, and Cuteness!Being Kind is a Superpower.

In this bonus episode of Banking on Fraudology, powered by Safeguard , Hailey Windham talks with Ben Graf, a self-taught AI expert in the neobank space. Ben embodies the spirit of curiosity and courage driving the next wave of fraud-fighting transformation.The conversation dives into what it really looks like to learn AI from the ground up, emphasizing that the future of fraud prevention isn't about replacing people, but empowering them through technology.Key Takeaways: AI, Innovation, and Fraud-Fighting EmpowermentUsing AI to Learn AI: Ben explains how he used varying LLM chats (like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini) as a coach or mentor, experimenting for hours to understand their capabilities, consistency, and how to effectively prompt them.This approach helped him translate technical language and practices (like data analysis, SQL, and JavaScript) into actionable knowledge for his team, breaking down communication barriers.The hardest part was knowing where to start, but the key was realizing that "something is better than nothing" and compounding knowledge quickly breaks down barriers.Practical AI Applications for Eliminating Busy Work: AI should be used to make teams more efficient and help professionals focus strategically.Automating Document Verification: AI can use OCR to pull data, flag inconsistencies, and serve up summaries for identity, business, and income documents, which are often the most time-consuming parts of a review.Data Retrieval and System Silos: AI can help team members write their own SQL queries to retrieve data from data warehouses, dramatically reducing requests to the data team.Product and Feature Proposals: AI tools can mock up full dashboard concepts and even provide code snippets to give engineers a visual and break down communication barriers between fraud and technical teams.The Power of Empowerment and Buy-In: Leadership should create a culture where fraud fighters are empowered to explore and innovate.The magic of time savings lies in filling the time freed from "busy work" (like false positives) with new, high-impact tasks, whether that's cost savings in fraud loss or better customer retention.Teams are advised to keep proprietary or PII information out of the loop and find safe spaces to explore, remembering that everyone is still figuring out what AI can do.Get in the mood of being grateful for the fraud-fighting community, and be reminded of how strong the fraud-fighting community truly is. About Hailey Windham:As a 2023 CU Rockstar Recipient, Hailey Windham, CFCS (Certified Financial Crimes Specialist) demonstrated unbounding passion for educating her community, organization and credit union membership on scams in the market and best practices to avoid them. She has implemented several programs within her previous organizations that aim at holistically learning about how to prevent and detect fraud targeted at membership and employees. Windham's initiatives to build strong relationships and partnerships throughout the credit union community and industry experts have led to countless success stories. Her applied knowledge of payments system programs combined with her experience in fraud investigations offers practical concepts that are transferable, no matter the organization's size.

In this powerful and enlightening episode, I sit down with Dr. Aimee Duffy, triple-board-certified functional medicine physician and regenerative health expert, to uncover the deeper biochemical, hormonal, and cellular factors driving bone loss. Dr. Duffy shares how chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, gut dysfunction, emotional trauma, immune imbalance, and mitochondrial decline all impact the body's ability to repair — including the repair of your bones.We talk about the connection between stress, trauma, and physical degeneration; how the nervous system affects hormone balance; and why rebuilding bone health requires more than calcium supplements and heavy weights. Dr. Duffy explains that bone loss is rarely an isolated condition — it's a downstream effect of a body that's inflamed, depleted, stressed, or biochemically out of balance.This episode will give you hope, validation, and a deeper understanding of how to support your bones from the inside out.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeThe biochemical and cellular drivers of bone lossHow stress, trauma, and nervous system dysregulation affect bone-buildingWhy inflammation and oxidative stress accelerate aging and degenerationHow gut health influences nutrient absorption and hormone balanceThe role of mitochondria in energy, healing, and bone remodelingHow emotions and past experiences impact physical healthWhy restoring internal balance must come before advanced therapiesPractical, everyday steps to support your healing and strengthen your bonesAction Steps You Can Take TodaySupport your gut with whole foods, hydration, minerals, and fiber-rich meals.Regulate your nervous system through deep breathing, meditation, grounding, or yoga.Reduce inflammatory loads by limiting sugar, alcohol, processed oils, and stress.Strengthen your mitochondria with sunlight, movement, quality sleep, and clean nutrition.Address emotional stress or unresolved trauma that keeps the body in survival mode.Incorporate minerals and antioxidants for cellular support (magnesium, potassium, trace minerals).Seek functional testing to understand hormones, oxidative stress, gut health, and inflammation markers.Resources & LinksLearn more about Dr. Aimee Duffy: https://www.aimeeduffymd.com/Debi Robinson Wellness: https://debirobinson.comHealthy Gut Healthy Bones Program: https://debirobinson.com/healthy-gut-healthy-bones/Debi's TakeawayYour bones are not the problem — they are the result of what's happening inside your body. Bone loss is a message, not a failure. When you reduce inflammation, strengthen your mitochondria, heal your gut, regulate your stress, nourish your cells, and support your emotional wellbeing, your bones receive the signal that it's finally safe to rebuild. Healing begins the moment your internal environment becomes supportive of repair.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Sarah Frampton, who conducts research on, amongst other things, improving how we teach, learn, and organize information using behavior-analytic strategies. We explore her career journey, her research on graphic organizers and the Cover, Copy, Compare (CCC) strategy, and the broader implications for stimulus equivalence, educational technology, and effective teaching. In This Episode, You'll Learn: How Sarah's unconventional path led her from economics and psychology into Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). Why note-taking and structured learning strategies, like CCC, matter for retaining and applying complex information. How stimulus equivalence principles can enhance learning beyond direct instruction. Insights from Sarah's research combining CCC with graphic organizers, including practical takeaways for educators and learners (see Frampton, Vesely and Jackson, 2025). How visual learning tools and educational technology can improve engagement and retention. Strategies for training learners to use these approaches independently and effectively. Highlights From Our Conversation: Sarah's Path Into ABA Sarah shares how a thesis requirement and a Craigslist job posting led her to ABA, including formative experiences working with Dr. Alice Shillingsburg at the Marcus Autism Center. These experiences sparked her interest in efficient, broadly applicable learning strategies. Why Note-Taking Strategies Matter We discuss the value of graphic organizers and the Cover, Copy, Compare (CCC) strategy: Graphic organizers visually display relationships between concepts. CCC is a structured, active-response method that strengthens memory, similar to flashcards. Sarah emphasizes how behavior-analytic techniques can support higher-order thinking processes often considered "cognitive." CCC and Stimulus Equivalence Sarah walks through stimulus equivalence with clear examples, showing how teaching certain relations can produce broader learning without direct instruction. She also highlights a study where CCC and graphic organizers helped learners prepare for tests—even under intentionally challenging conditions. Graphic Organizers in Action Key findings from Sarah's research: Learners who drew more structured organizers performed better. Teaching organizer use during test conditions did not hinder performance. Visualizing relationships among stimuli predicted task success. Training Learners to Use These Strategies Sarah outlines her training sequence, including pre-tests, video instruction, practice with familiar material, and application to abstract stimuli. A core goal was strategy generalization—ensuring learners could apply CCC to new material independently. Fig. 1 from Frampton, et al. (2025) Fig. 2 from Frampton, et al. (2025) Research Findings Most participants quickly mastered abstract relations and passed post-tests after brief training. Notably, all participants used the CCC strategy—some even more meticulously than required. Educational Technology, Engagement, and Mediation Participants reported the educational technology intervention was easy to use and helpful, contrasting with high dropout rates in similar studies. Sarah also describes how participants naturally used private verbal behavior, such as naming stimuli or creating stories, to aid learning. Visual Learning Tools in ABA We discuss the broader application of visual supports—graphic organizers, flashcards, handwriting—and their role in enhancing learning efficiency for both adults and children with autism. Looking Ahead Sarah previews her upcoming presentation at the Verbal Behavior Conference, covering generative learning and assessment tools. We also explore how collaboration and community can reduce burnout and increase long-term job satisfaction in ABA in the "advice for the newly-minted" segment.

In this episode, host David Mandell welcomes Dr. Paul Lynch, a double board-certified anesthesiologist and pain management specialist, entrepreneur, and business leader. Dr. Lynch shares his remarkable journey from aspiring psychiatrist to pain medicine innovator—a shift inspired by his mother-in-law's battle with cancer and the discovery of interventional pain treatments that could transform patients' lives. His early experiences at the Mayo Clinic shaped his belief in comprehensive, integrated care—a philosophy that became the foundation for his first practice, Arizona Pain, which quickly became one of the nation's leading pain management centers. Dr. Lynch details how entrepreneurial thinking, coupled with strategic use of digital tools, drove his success. His story of launching a medical website during fellowship—eventually ranking number one on Google before opening his doors—illustrates how physicians can use education-based marketing to reach patients and grow responsibly. As his career evolved, Dr. Lynch founded U.S. Pain Care, intentionally designed to avoid the mistakes of his first venture. Through introspection and what he calls his "Manifesto of 53 Errors," he now builds companies around lessons learned, focusing on empowering other physicians with ownership, autonomy, and ethical profitability. The discussion also delves into real estate, private equity, and long-term business strategy in medicine. Dr. Lynch explains how owning medical real estate can be one of the most impactful and ethical ways for physicians to build wealth—separate from clinical care—highlighting the benefits of property ownership, long-term leasing, and physician-owned REITs. He closes with advice to doctors: never make fortunes "on the backs of patients." Instead, focus on providing excellent care while building wealth through smart business decisions, integrity, and surrounding yourself with expert advisors in law, finance, and real estate.

Jay Knight, managing member of Templar Development and co-founder and chair of the Georgia Residential Land Development Council (GRLDC), joins Host Carol Morgan on the Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio podcast to discuss Georgia's housing challenges, including affordability, land-use policy and strategies to support first-time homebuyers. Housing Affordability Challenges Knight said, “70% of Georgians who would like to buy a house cannot afford one.” Affordability remains a central concern across Georgia. Rising construction costs, high interest rates and restrictive zoning have constrained the supply of homes for first-time buyers. Knight highlights one municipality where public employees earning an average of $54,000 could afford only a home priced around $206,000. Yet the market offered just 13 homes under $250,000, most of them older modular units. Where are the “missing middle” options? These smaller, attainable homes often bridge the gap between entry-level and higher-end properties but are difficult for homebuyers to find. Zoning restrictions often prevent these homes from being built, delaying household formation and limiting wealth-building opportunities for younger buyers. While demand is strong, builders face restrictions on where they can place this product. The margins may be solid, but accessing the land needed to make these homes profitable often discourages newer builders from pursuing them. “‘Can you just build a smaller house?' That's not always an option,” Knight said. “A neighborhood may have zoning conditions that don't allow smaller homes.” GRLDC and Legislative Advocacy GRLDC was founded to address shared industry challenges and promote access to quality, affordable housing across Georgia. A key initiative is House Bill 812, which aims to streamline permitting processes and reduce unnecessary delays. In many jurisdictions, development approvals can take up to a year, limiting supply and increasing costs. HB 812 calls for shorter review timelines and clearer procedures, which could significantly increase the number of lots available without compromising safety standards. Knight highlights the value of collaboration between private developers and local governments to advance housing affordability concerns. When municipalities actively engage developers in shaping policy, practical and effective solutions often emerge. Renting vs. Buying High rents present a barrier for prospective homeowners. While renting can provide flexibility, it often limits the ability to save toward a down payment. Knight explains that increasing housing supply and allowing more flexibility in lot and home sizes could ease rent pressures and expand homeownership opportunities for working Georgians. “The answer to everything in housing is supply,” Knight said. “If we had enough supply and flexibility in house size, it would create pressure on apartment owners to lower rents and give more Georgians—especially younger ones—the option to buy a home.” Education Through Build Baby Build Knight also hosts the Build Baby Build podcast, an educational platform for the residential development community. Episodes address issues facing today's homebuyers and work to bridge the gap between industry expertise and public perception. The goal is to help listeners better understand the operational and financial factors that shape housing affordability. A recent episode examined the “land-light strategy” used by many builders. Despite national claims that large builders hoard land and worsen the affordability crisis, Knight said the opposite is true. Knight said, “They want to be light on land and on time for the delivery of houses.” Outlook for Georgia Housing Despite ongoing challenges, Knight expressed cautious optimism about Georgia's housing future. Growing attention to affordability issues—among policymakers and community leaders—signals a willingness to address long-standing obstacles. Knight said efforts such as HB 812 could streamline permitting and reduce regulatory delays, potentially doubling the number of lots brought to market in the near term.

Susan Guthrie welcomes two extraordinary guests whose combined perspectives offer something rarely seen in the world of divorce. Bill Eddy, LCSW, Esq., returns to the show alongside author Matthew A. Tower, whose new book Love Wars: Clash of the Parents gives listeners an unprecedented inside look at what high-conflict divorce feels like through the eyes of a child. Together, their insights reveal the emotional reality children carry, the predictable patterns behind high-conflict behaviors, and the steps parents can take to protect their kids from the fallout. Love Wars follows Matthew's journey from ages six to eleven as he navigated two volatile households, emotional unpredictability, parentification, negative advocates, and the relentless pressure to choose sides. His story is raw, illuminating, and at times difficult to hear, yet it is also deeply important. Bill helps contextualize Matthew's lived experience through High Conflict Personality Theory and offers guidance parents and professionals can use immediately. This conversation is a powerful companion to Bill's book Splitting and the perfect next step for anyone committed to changing the emotional climate for their children. Why This Conversation Matters High-conflict divorce leaves a lasting imprint on children, but the full internal experience is almost never visible to parents, courts, or professionals. Matthew's story pulls back the curtain on what children absorb, what they fear, how they cope, and why the conflict shapes them long after the legal case is over. Bill explains how splitting, emotional volatility, and personality-driven dynamics create confusion, fear, and reactivity for children who do not yet have the capacity to regulate intense emotions. He also highlights why professionals often miss what is really happening, and how parents can change the trajectory by lowering conflict, creating predictability, and becoming the steady emotional anchor their children desperately need. Together, Bill and Matthew offer clarity, compassion, and a path forward for families caught in high-conflict cycles. In this episode, you will learn: What children internalize during high-conflict divorce and why they absorb the emotional intensity around them Why parentification is so damaging and how children become emotional caregivers when adults are dysregulated How high-conflict parents recruit negative advocates and why these dynamics intensify the conflict Why kids shut down, freeze, or dissociate when the emotional environment becomes overwhelming How calm, consistent adults like Matthew's stepmother Holly can become a lifeline What courts and professionals often overlook when evaluating children's preferences or resistance What parents can do right now to lower reactivity, reduce conflict, and create safety for their children About the Guests:  Bill Eddy, LCSW, Esq. - Bill Eddy is a lawyer, therapist, mediator, best-selling author, co-founder, and Chief Innovation Officer of the High Conflict Institute. He pioneered the High Conflict Personality Theory (HCP Theory) and has become an international expert on managing disputes involving high conflict personalities and personality disorders.

What two words can make you smarter? In this episode of Remarkable TV, I share the surprisingly simple phrase that helps leaders think more clearly, make better decisions, and avoid the trap of automatic responses. These two words invite us into curiosity, reflection, and wiser choices—and they can change the way you lead starting today. When we say "It depends," we pause long enough to consider context, challenge our biases, and explore new solutions. And when we do that consistently, we become more flexible… and smarter. If you want to navigate uncertainty with clarity and confidence, this is a simple but powerful mindset shift.

On this week's Money Matters, Scott and Pat help a caller streamline her financial life by consolidating accounts — discussing key differences between IRAs and 401(k)s, asset protection considerations, and how annuities can fit into a broader financial planning strategy for long-term freedom. Next, they talk with a caller navigating what to do with a $1 million 401(k) after a career transition. Scott and Pat break down the pros and cons of rolling funds into an IRA versus keeping them in an employer plan, with an eye on long-term tax flexibility, investment control, and strategic financial planning. Finally, Allworth's Head of Wealth Strategies, Victoria Bogner, joins the show to share powerful financial planning insights — including strategies for handling stock options, Roth conversions, tax-loss harvesting, donor-advised funds, and how business owners can better position themselves for lasting financial flexibility.
