Prix Médicis en 2020 pour " Le cœur synthétique ", Chloé Delaume en reprend les personnages ainsi que ceux de " Pauvre folle ", son livre précédent. Soit 5 femmes, qui vont passer un week-end dans une ville où 20 ans auparavant, lʹune dʹelles, Clotilde, a vécu une relation mortifère avec un homme que lʹautrice appelle Monsieur. Ses amies Adélaïde, Judith, Bérangère et Hermeline ne connaissent pas cette histoire. Et pour cause, Clotilde en a honte, car dépouillée dʹelle-même par Monsieur. Violences, viol conjugal, elle se demande si libérer sa parole pourrait aider la honte à enfin changer de camp.

Alex m'a demandé comment se préparer mentalement à courir une longue distance. J'ai décidé de la généraliser en ajoute une PLUS longue distance. Car je crois que ce sont les mêmes stratégies qui s'appliquent du moment que l'on souhaite courir un peu ou beaucoup plus longtemps que ce dont on a l'habitude et ce que l'on a déjà fait.Liens :Tous les liens et anciens épisodes : https://km42.soulier.xyz/366Le Protocole Perte de Gras : https://go.soulier.xyz/protocolekm42Je pense que c'est une question universelle dans nos parcours de coureur et coureuse. On cherche pendant un bon moment comment allonger les distances, comment courir plus longtemps. Et ça commence dès nos débuts. Quand je courais 1 minute, je voulais courir 2 minutes, puis 5, 10, 30 et une heure. Puis j'ai eu peur de courir mon premier trail de 13km. J'ai dit que je pourrais jamais courir un marathon car c'est trop long et ennuyeux. Et pourtant j'en ai couru 3 et j'ai aussi fait un 24 heures (137km) et des défis ultra à vélo avec les gravelman et le voyage bikepacking. Et tout au long de ce parcours j'ai découvert que j'avais de moins en moins peur. J'avais rempli mon réservoir de confiance avec l'expérience et l'accumulation progressive de défis. J'avais compris comment me rassurer via l'entraînement. Avec la préparation mentale j'avais intégré des stratégies pour mieux vivre les moments difficiles de la course. Et même compris que parfois la meilleure chose à faire, c'est une pause, marcher ou même dormir.C'est ce que vous partage dans cet épisode :mon parcours de mes premières minutes de running aux défis ultrale principe du réservoir de confiancepourquoi il y a toujours une zone inconnue à explorercomment on peut réduire l'inconnu sans jamais le supprimerpourquoi il faut comprendre qu'il y aura forcément des moments difficilesl'intérêt de l'expériencece que nous pouvons transposer d'une course à l'autrepourquoi la difficulté ne vient pas que de la distance mais aussi du terrain, de l'objectif, des heures de départ, de la nuitpourquoi parfois la meilleure chose à faire est de marcher, s'arrêter un peu ou même dormirles anecdotes personnelles et de mes invités sur ces sujetsNouveau : Le protocole Perte de Gras 2025 ❤️ Me suivre Tous les liens sont ici

De retour hier du fort de Brégançon, sa résidence de vacances varoise, Emmanuel Macron doit retrouver, ce mercredi, François Bayrou et son gouvernement pour un Conseil des ministres de rentrée. Libération à Paris, s'interroge : « le Président s'efforcera-t-il de regonfler le moral des troupes ? Se gardera-t-il d'évoquer l'issue a priori fatale du vote de confiance du 8 septembre ? Tristes mines de condamnés autour de la table. Depuis que les oppositions ont unanimement claqué, lundi, la porte au nez du Premier ministre qui compte engager la responsabilité du gouvernement sur le principe d'un effort de 44 milliards d'euros pour 2026, "on a fait nos calculs, soupire un conseiller ministériel. C'est plié, il n'y a aucun suspense. On se retrouve encore dans la machine à laver, à se demander ce que nous réserve la suite" ». Chaos ? La presse étrangère ne peut que constater les dégâts… « Et la France replongea dans le chaos », soupire Le Soir à Bruxelles. « Les mots tenus par François Bayrou durant sa conférence de presse lundi ne peuvent que bousculer. Oui, creuser sans cesse la dette hypothéquera l'avenir des générations futures. Mais la gravité du moment n'appelait-elle donc pas justement à débattre, à tenter d'arracher à tout prix un compromis, s'exclame le quotidien belge, même si cet accord semblait quasiment introuvable ? Une partie du Parti socialiste, sa frange la plus modérée, incarnée par l'ancien président François Hollande, était encore prête à discuter. Tant que le gong de l'échec n'avait pas retenti, il était encore possible d'espérer conjurer le chaos. François Bayrou a choisi une autre voie, pointe encore Le Soir. Il a préféré une sortie théâtrale, désormais plus que probable. Partir avant d'être chassé ». Incompréhension… Le Temps à Genève exprime son incompréhension… « On notera l'utilisation répétée par le Premier ministre du mot "clarification" pour expliquer sa démarche. C'est le terme exact qu'avait utilisé Emmanuel Macron en 2024 pour justifier sa dissolution (complètement ratée) de l'Assemblée nationale, celle-là même qui a enfoncé la France dans cette crise, avec des élections législatives anticipées qui ont parachevé l'explosion du paysage politique français et laissé le pays sans la moindre majorité sur laquelle s'appuyer. Emmanuel Macron avait fini par reconnaître l'échec de ce premier coup de poker et il validerait désormais le pari fou de son Premier ministre ? », s'exclame Le Temps. « Soit le président ne retient aucune leçon, soit il a autre chose derrière la tête. Autre chose de nécessairement très risqué. Qui a dit que chat échaudé craint l'eau froide ? » Courage ? Pour le Times à Londres, François Bayrou a fait preuve de courage… « Le Premier ministre français risque sa tête pour rétablir des finances publiques désastreuses. Il faut féliciter François Bayrou pour avoir appelé à un vote de confiance afin de sortir ses compatriotes de leur état de rêve ». Et le Times de détailler par le menu l'état catastrophique des finances publiques françaises… Et de signaler au passage que si une majorité de français refusent la suppression de deux de leurs onze jours fériés, l'Angleterre, elle, n'en compte que huit… Coup de froid… « Adieu l'été », soupire pour sa part le Wall Street Journal à New York : « coup de froid à Paris pour le début de la saison budgétaire française. Les investisseurs sont transis à l'idée que le gouvernement pourrait bientôt tomber comme une feuille morte à l'automne, car après toutes ces années, Paris n'arrive toujours pas à maîtriser son budget et son économie. (…) On aurait pu penser, déplore le quotidien financier américain, que la situation budgétaire française désastreuse susciterait une explosion de créativité en matière de politique. Au lieu de cela, la plupart des politiciens français s'accordent à dire qu'ils préfèrent augmenter les impôts plutôt que de réduire les dépenses ou de réformer les droits sociaux. (…) Il n'y a aucune discussion sur la croissance économique, qui est le seul moyen pour la France d'échapper à un marasme fiscal, constate encore le Wall Street Journal. Les premiers succès d'Emmanuel Macron en matière de réformes ont montré que le changement était possible, mais son style impérieux n'a pas réussi à rallier les électeurs ».

Mamari, humoriste, chroniqueuse et autrice, signe un spectacle qui bouscule, émeut et fait éclater de rire : Trop drôle pour mourir. En tous cas, j'ai adoré allé la voir au théâtre! Et pour cette rentrée, je me suis que nous avons vraiment besoin de rire un peu parce que le moment est tellement grave.Un épisode de rentrée pas vraiment léger mais léger quand même vous allez voir :)Dans cet épisode nous avons abordé ensemble des sujets à la fois lourds et essentiels : l'hospitalisation psychiatrique, le génocide rwandais, l'inceste, les troubles alimentaires, la dépression... Mais toujours avec cette légèreté propre à Mamari, cette intelligence de la nuance et ce sens rare de l'autodérision.Ce que j'ai trouvé fascinant dans notre échange, c'est à quel point Mamari incarne cette capacité de transformer la douleur en force, les blessures en moteur artistique. Elle ne cache rien : son passé, ses traumatismes, ses luttes quotidiennes, mais elle les offre au public, non pas dans une démarche de victimisation, mais avec une volonté profonde de partage, d'authenticité, et, surtout, de transmission.Nous avons parlé de son parcours atypique, de son besoin viscéral d'être vraie, des injonctions familiales, de la place de la honte et du corps, de la puissance de l'humour pour déjouer les stigmates. J'ai aussi questionné Mamari sur ses origines rwandaises, sur ce que signifie être l'enfant de survivants d'un génocide, et comment cela façonne une identité.Mamari, c'est une voix qui compte, une artiste à suivre absolument. Cet épisode est à la fois dur et lumineux. Il fait réfléchir, il bouleverse, et il donne envie d'aimer plus fort, de rire plus sincèrement et d'écouter avec plus d'empathie.5 citations marquantes :"L'humour, c'est un outil de survie, mais pas de vie.""Je tombe en dépression à chaque fois que j'emprunte une route qui n'est pas la mienne.""Soit je reste dans la honte, soit je le dis en premier, et on crève l'abcès.""Le corps, lui, ne ment pas. Il dit stop bien avant la tête.""Peut-on rire de tout ? Je pense que oui, mais il faut trouver le bon angle."10 questions posées dans l'interview :Est-ce qu'on peut rire de tout ?Comment te présentes-tu sur scène ?Comment fais-tu de ta honte une force ?Quel a été le déclic pour assumer pleinement ton identité ?Est-ce que l'humour peut vraiment tout guérir ?Quel est le poids d'être l'enfant de survivants d'un génocide ?Pourquoi n'es-tu jamais retournée au Rwanda ?Est-ce qu'on peut se remettre de l'inceste ?Quel est ton rapport à l'authenticité ?L'humour est-il un masque ou un révélateur ?Timestamps clés pour YouTube :00:00:00 – Introduction de l'épisode et présentation de Mamari00:02:00 – Mamari se présente : humoriste, autrice, survivante00:05:00 – L'humour comme outil d'acceptation et d'authenticité00:14:00 – La pression familiale et l'injonction de réussir00:22:00 – Être l'enfant de survivants d'un génocide : mémoire et transmission00:35:00 – Le lien au Rwanda et à la Côte d'Ivoire00:40:00 – Parler d'inceste avec humour : une thérapie nécessaire00:45:00 – Les conséquences durables des violences sexuelles00:50:00 – L'espoir d'une vie pleine après les traumas Suggestion d'autres épisodes à écouter : #253 Une interview médiocre avec Guillaume Meurice (https://audmns.com/YStNaBN) #355 La santé mentale decomplexée avec Psykocouac (https://audmns.com/IELEJEC) [REDIFF] Pourquoi les artistes peuvent changer le monde avec Abd Al Malik (https://audmns.com/pZswfnp)Hébergé par Audiomeans.

C'est une enquête de Jeune Afrique sur la vague d'arrestations de ces derniers jours qui a frappé plusieurs hauts-gradés. Une cinquantaine d'officiers, dont au moins deux généraux, ont été mis aux arrêts pour tentative de déstabilisation. Les autorités militaires du pays n'ont donné aucune explication. Silence radio total. Alors, s'interroge le site panafricain : « que se passe-t-il dans les rangs des Forces armées maliennes ? Une division interne secoue-t-elle l'équilibre des cinq colonels putschistes ? Ceux-là mêmes qui se sont toujours affichés soudés depuis le putsch du 18 août 2020 ? » En fait, affirme Jeune Afrique, tout serait parti d'une « réunion dans la nuit du 25 au 26 juillet au camp militaire de Kati entre une dizaine de hauts-gradés et le chef de la junte ». Contestations et récriminations… Réunion au cours de laquelle, « la générale de brigade Nema Sagara ainsi que le général Abass Dembélé, le colonel Famouké Camara, et d'autres officiers auraient contesté certains choix stratégiques pris par la junte. Ils se seraient plaints auprès d'Assimi Goïta du manque de reconnaissance envers les soldats tombés sur le champ de bataille qui ne reçoivent pas les honneurs nationaux, et dont la mort est passée sous silence. S'ils sont d'accord avec la guerre de communication menée par Bamako, précise encore Jeune Afrique, de plus en plus d'officiers estimeraient que les mensonges autour des pertes réelles de l'armée portent atteinte au moral des troupes, qui ont le sentiment de se sacrifier pour rien ». Le site panafricain poursuit : « après cette réunion, percevant un risque de mutinerie, le patron des renseignements, le général Modibo Koné, aurait suggéré au président Goïta d'étouffer dans l'œuf toute velléité contestataire, afin de ne pas laisser place à l'organisation d'un coup d'État. Le président, conscient du risque, aurait déclenché quelques jours plus tard une purge préventive dans les rangs des officiers critiques. En concentrant ses efforts sur l'entourage des généraux Nema Sagara et Abass Dembélé ». Lignes de fractures… Il faut dire aussi, rajoute Jeune Afrique, que « depuis plusieurs mois déjà, une certaine fébrilité parcourt les rangs de l'armée malienne. Promu président de la République par une loi qu'il a lui-même promulguée le 10 juillet, lui conférant un mandat de cinq ans renouvelable “autant de fois que nécessaire“ et sans élection, le chef de la junte malienne s'est offert un règne sans partage. De quoi échauder une partie de ses soutiens au sein des forces armées, qui voient dans cette décision une dérive autoritaire éloignant la transition de ses promesses ». Et « une ligne de fracture se dessine au sein de l'armée, pointe encore le site panafricain, entre les soutiens du chef de la junte, Assimi Goïta, et ceux du ministre de la Défense, Sadio Camara. Ces derniers mois, le fossé s'est considérablement creusé entre les deux hommes au point qu'ils ne se consultent presque plus. Alors que certains le surnommaient “le président bis“ ou bien “le cerveau de la transition“, le pouvoir de Sadio Camara s'est réduit à mesure que la transition avançait ». Eswatini : un règne sans partage… À lire également, cette fois dans Le Point Afrique, cette enquête sur le dernier monarque absolu du continent… Le roi Mswati III qui règne sans partage sur l'Eswatini, l'ex-Swaziland, petit pays enclavé en Afrique du Sud. « Les sujets ont pour ordre de vénérer leur roi, assimilé à un dieu vivant, écrit Le Point Afrique, et d'oublier leurs malheurs, pourtant accablants. 60 % de la population vit en dessous du seuil de pauvreté, autrement dit avec moins de 2 dollars par jour. Le chômage des jeunes dépasse les 45 %, l'un des taux les plus élevés d'Afrique australe. Le sida frappe 27 % des adultes, le taux le plus élevé au monde ». Et pendant ce temps, le roi Mswati III mène grand train : « en poursuivant à sa guise la spoliation du pays, constate Le Point Afrique. La holding royale baptisée Tibiyo, indépendante du budget, contrôlerait 60 % de l'économie, dont l'essentiel des revenus issus de la production de cannes à sucre. Soit des centaines de millions de dollars destinés à financer le train de vie fastueux du monarque, propriétaire de 19 Rolls-Royce et de 120 BMW, ainsi que celui de ses 16 femmes et de ses 36 enfants ».

Des chaussettes qui allient technique et style : l'histoire de trois passionnés

L'un veut la paix entre la Russie et l'Ukraine, même au prix d'un accord favorable envers Moscou. L'autre veut prendre le contrôle total de Gaza, malgré une levée de bouclier nationale et internationale. On commence par Trump qui ouvre donc un boulevard à Poutine… Le Figaro à Paris peine à y croire… « En annonçant sans conditions une rencontre au sommet pour décider du sort de l'Ukraine, le président américain donne à son homologue russe la possibilité de sécuriser ses gains territoriaux dans une guerre qu'il a lui-même déclenchée. » En fait, résume le journal, « Donald Trump prend le risque d'offrir à Vladimir Poutine une victoire diplomatique inespérée ». À lire aussiRencontre Trump-Poutine sur l'Ukraine: la Russie se prépare, Zelensky rejette tout compromis territorial Le sommet en Alaska : « un pari risqué pour la paix… » Pour Le Monde, toujours à Paris, « le président russe ne renoncera pas à ses ambitions maximalistes, formulées dans le mémorandum d'Istanbul en juin dernier. Soit la reconnaissance par Kiev de la souveraineté russe sur cinq régions occupées : Crimée, Donetsk, Louhansk, Kherson et Zaporijia ; l'interdiction pour l'Ukraine d'adhérer à l'OTAN ; la démilitarisation du pays ; l'arrêt des livraisons d'armes étrangères et un retour à une forte influence de Moscou dans le pays ». Interrogé par le quotidien français, l'ancien diplomate ukrainien Oleksandr Khara affirme : « les Russes n'ont pas bougé d'un iota. Ils ne seraient prêts à un cessez-le-feu que dans le cas où Poutine prendrait conscience des énormes problèmes structurels auxquels son économie fait face, ou aurait besoin d'une pause pour reconstituer des forces militaires. Je ne vois aucune autre raison pour laquelle Poutine renoncerait à ses ambitions impérialistes de conquérir l'Ukraine ». Et Oleksandr Khara de déplorer que « toute l'idée du sommet repose en réalité sur l'incompétence de [l'émissaire du président américain, Steve] Witkoff, qui a mal compris Vladimir Poutine en laissant penser que les Russes étaient prêts à un retrait partiel de leurs troupes ». Pour le Washington Post, cette rencontre Trump-Poutine en Alaska « est un pari risqué pour la paix. Le moment est venu de discuter des concessions territoriales, estime le quotidien américain, mais l'Ukraine a également besoin de garanties de sécurité ». Et « Trump serait mal avisé de ne pas tenir compte de Zelensky. Naturellement, Poutine ne veut traiter qu'avec Trump. Toutefois, pour qu'un accord tienne la route, il faut que les Ukrainiens y adhèrent. Idéalement, bien que cela semble peu probable, Zelensky peut encore obtenir une invitation au sommet de l'Alaska ». À lire aussiRencontre Trump-Poutine sur l'Ukraine: quels moyens de pression ont les États-Unis sur Moscou? « Emporté par sa folie guerrière » Netanyahu à présent… Le Premier ministre israélien veut en finir avec le Hamas et pour ce faire, il veut prendre le contrôle de Gaza. Levée de bouclier international et levée de boucliers dans les médias… « Cette prise de contrôle de Gaza par Israël serait un acte destructeur et futile, dénonce le Guardian à Londres. Elle ne résoudrait absolument rien. Elle ne ferait qu'ajouter de nouveaux problèmes militaires, humanitaires et politiques à ceux déjà créés par le conflit. Elle aggraverait la souffrance humaine, au lieu de l'améliorer. Les gouvernements du monde entier doivent faire tout ce qu'ils peuvent – les États-Unis en premier lieu – pour y mettre un terme ». « Emporté par sa folie guerrière et son obsession de rester au pouvoir, renchérit Libération à Paris, Netanyahu n'a, dans sa propre logique, plus d'autre choix que celui de s'obstiner et de poursuivre sa fuite en avant, c'est là le drame. Ses ministres d'extrême droite, qui souhaiteraient recoloniser Gaza et trouvent son plan trop léger, l'accusent de s'être “rendu aux faibles“ et le chef de l'opposition lui reproche de “démanteler le pays de l'intérieur“. À force de jouer avec le feu, conclut Libération, le Premier ministre israélien va finir par s'y brûler ». Enfin, même le Jerusalem Post à Tel Aviv, plutôt favorable à la ligne gouvernementale, exprime ses doutes… « Le plan de Netanyahu menace de déchirer Israël, affirme le journal. Il ne satisfait pleinement aucun camp, en renforçant la méfiance entre les dirigeants et les citoyens. (…) La nation est divisée sur la stratégie, les objectifs et les implications morales de ce plan. En l'absence d'une vision unificatrice portant à la fois sur la sécurité et la conscience, le plan Gaza de Netanyahu, prévient encore le Jerusalem Post, risque de devenir non pas une voie d'avenir, mais plutôt une ligne de faille aggravant les crises internes et externes d'Israël ».

Le pays peine à mobiliser trois ans après l'invasion russe, alors écrit Marianne le Parlement a autorisé il y a un an le recrutement dans les prisons. Et depuis, c'est parmi 37 000 détenus que l'armée peut aller chercher de nouvelles recrues. C'est le cas dans une prison de la région de Kiev. Les soldats recruteurs s'y rendent pour rencontrer une dizaine de prisonniers volontaires au milieu des murs rose pastel d'une bibliothèque aux rayonnages qui débordent de livres. « Je vais être clair, chez nous, il y a des règles strictes qu'il ne faut pas enfreindre sinon la sanction est sévère : pas d'alcool, pas de drogue, pas de désertion », peut-on lire dans les colonnes de Marianne. Et le recruteur de poursuivre « vous vous ferez bombarder fort, ce qu'on vous propose, c'est une excellente formation et du sérieux ». Parmi les prétendants ce jour-là, Sasha, 35 ans, qui a tué une femme qui tenait des propos pro-russes en 2024. Mais il n'a pas purgé le tiers de sa peine de neuf ans et ne pourra donc pas intégrer l'armée. 100 000 morts en trois ans, un conflit qui n'en finit pas de durer. En un an, 8 500 prisonniers ont été recrutés de la sorte. Combien rentreront chez eux en vie ? Difficile à dire, mais les surveillants de prison font de la résistance, poursuit Marianne, pas fan du dispositif, car s'il y a moins de prisonniers il y aura moins de postes de matons et donc plus de chances qu'ils soient, eux aussi, envoyés sur le front… Le Nouvel Obs s'intéresse aussi à un ancien prisonnier des geôles ukrainiennes entré dans l'armée. Mais son parcours est nettement plus atypique, pour ne pas dire chaotique, parce qu'il a été soldat russe avant. Pour V, il préfère l'anonymat, tout commence en 2023 détaille le Nouvel Obs, il se fait arrêter pour fraude fiscale, et est emprisonné. Et c'est là qu'en premier lieu l'armée russe s'intéresse à lui. « Soit tu vas te battre et tu touches la prime d'engagement, un million de roubles, 11 000 euros et 200 000 roubles par mois, 2200 euros. Soit, tu rempiles pour huit ans de prison ». Le choix est vite fait et le jeune homme se retrouve en camp d'entraînement avant de rejoindre le « hachoir à viande ». C'est le terrible surnom donné aux lignes d'assaut, un taux de survie très faible, les soldats envoyés en première ligne servent de chair à canon. Il se souvient que sur le front de nombreux corps de soldats russes morts pourrissent, jamais ramassés par les autorités qui évitent ainsi de devoir dédommager les familles des morts au combat. V. finit par s'échapper, poursuit le Nouvel Obs. Il se rend aux Ukrainiens, devient prisonnier de guerre, étonné du relatif bon traitement que lui réservent les soldats de Zelensky, il finit par s'engager à leur coté. « Mon rêve, c'est de faire venir ma mère et mon frère en Ukraine, conclut-il, je ne veux plus rien avoir à faire avec la Russie ». Les coulisses du G7  Au-delà des photos soigneusement préparées et des prises de paroles millimétrées, l'écrivain Emmanuel Carrère a suivi Emmanuel Macron dans les coulisses de ce sommet des plus puissants des puissants. À la mi-juin, au Canada, « l'exercice d'un tel sommet, c'est de se faire entendre sans donner l'impression qu'on fait la nique à Trump » rapporte Carrère dans le Nouvel Obs. Son récit, c'est celui des coulisses, des tractations silencieuses, des protocoles qui pèsent, des volontés de ne froisser personne. Costumes sombres et cravates pour les hommes, tailleurs stricts pour les femmes. Ils sont 1 500 dans les délégations à arpenter les salons d'un hôtel façon Shining flanqué au beau milieu de nulle part dans les plaines du Canada. Et le romancier de poursuivre « au bout d'une heure et demi, on est donc comme prévu arrivé à rien ». Dans Le Point, on s'intéresse au phénomène Meloni Qui s'affiche tout sourire en Une avec un petit village de Ligurie en fond, carte postale et géopolitique un combo toujours gagnant. Et on y lit qu'en mille jours la cheffe du gouvernement a su « imposer son pragmatisme ». Arrivée au pouvoir en septembre 2022, son gouvernement est rentré dans le top 5 de ceux avec le plus de longévité. Alors comment caractériser le style Meloni ? Le Point parle donc d'un « pragmatisme » revendiqué, d'une chef de gouvernement qui a su « imposer son équilibre politique de haute lutte », dans un pays habitué au chaos. Et même dans les rangs de la droite européenne, on salue son sérieux : elle devient « une partenaire sérieuse, crédible et raisonnable », là où on l'attendait isolée. Le Point rappelle que ses adversaires se font rares. À mi-mandat, aucun contre-projet ne perce, aucune figure n'émerge. Et quand elle parle, elle imprime. Exemple : au Conseil européen de février 2023, elle revendique l'introduction de « sept à huit propositions italiennes » sur l'immigration, et parle d'une « grande victoire pour l'Italie ». Une sortie qui avait laissé « un peu souffler » les diplomates français. Trois ans après son arrivée au pouvoir, Giorgia Meloni est toujours là, plus centrale que jamais. Elle agace, mais elle avance. Et, comme l'écrit Le Point, elle pourrait bien, d'ici 2027, doubler la mise.

Title: Rare Earths to Truffles: Diversified Investments You've Never Heard Of with Louis O'Connor Summary: In this episode of Raise the Bar Radio, Seth Bradley welcomes back Lou, an international investor, to discuss diversification, rare earth metals, and a unique agricultural investment opportunity. Lou, who splits his time between Europe and Latin America, emphasizes the importance of global diversification for peace of mind and flexibility. He highlights the geopolitical dynamics affecting rare earth metals, where China dominates the refining process, and discusses the increasing demand due to restricted exports. Transitioning from metals to agriculture, Lou introduces his truffle farm investment. Leveraging agri-science and Ireland's favorable climate, the project offers investors ownership of inoculated truffle trees with professional farm management. Returns are projected to begin in year 4-5 and continue for up to 40 years, offering IRRs between 14% to 69% based on historical truffle prices. Risks include mismanagement and natural elements, though strong biosecurity and proven success mitigate concerns. Lou finishes with a valuable mindset tip: improve by 1% daily to compound results over time. Bullet Point Highlights: Diversification across countries and industries provides flexibility and peace of mind China's control of rare earth refining and export restrictions create scarcity and opportunity Truffle farm investment offers strong IRR potential, with returns starting in years 4-5 and lasting 30-40 years Minimum $30K investment includes 400 saplings and full farm management with a 70/30 profit split Primary risks are mismanagement and nature, mitigated through biosecurity and replacement guarantees Lou's golden nugget: Focus on improving 1% daily to unlock exponential long-term growth Transcript: (Seth Bradley) (00:02.062) What's up, builders? This is Raise the Bar Radio, where we talk about building wealth, raising capital, and all in all, raising the bar in your business and your life. This is the No BS podcast for capital raisers, investors, and entrepreneurs who are serious about scaling their business and living life on their own terms. I'm Seth Bradley, securities attorney, real estate investor, and entrepreneur, bringing you world-class strategies from the best in the game.   If you're ready to raise more capital, close bigger deals, build a better you and create true financial freedom, you're in the right place. Let's go. Lou, what's going on, brother? Welcome back to the show.   Thank you very much Seth. Thank you. I'm very happy to be here. Good to see you again.   Yeah, absolutely man. Great to catch up with you. Are you tuning in from where?   Well, in Europe still, you know, I'm back and forth between Ireland, Germany, mostly, a little bit of time in Panama as well, because my wife's from there, but I'm in temporary in Ireland, horse breeding country and agricultural heartland actually of Europe. And at the moment anyway, yeah, so in Europe.   (Seth Bradley) (01:16.664) awesome, awesome. That's the beauty of being on a video conference call that you can talk to anyone from anywhere in the world now. That's the one good thing that came out of COVID is it made it normal to do it.   Yeah, it's funny, unbelievable. Just yesterday I was contacted actually by CNBC in the US, I'm in Europe, about the metals. We're not talking about metals today, but I've spoken with you before about the rare earth metals. And I guess the US chamber, secretary chamber of commerce is in China this week because China is restricting the export of certain technology metals and that's their area.   And within a day, there's like an hour after I speak with you, I'm doing an interview with CNBC on, I think it's Power Launch or something they call it. So it's fascinating really how quickly you can sort of ping around the globe and find somebody and do this.   Yeah, yeah, very cool, very cool, man. Well, thanks for taking the time to tune in with us today. And we've got a brand new thing to talk about and we'll jump into that. But before we do, just for listeners who didn't listen to your previous episode, give us a little bit about your background and your story. Just a general synopsis,   Sure, thank you. Yeah, so I'm obviously, you can tell from the accent, I'm Irish or Scottish or Australian, but it's Irish. And I suppose you could say I'm bit of a world traveler who has come back home specifically for this project we're going to talk about. Ireland is known as sort of the breadbasket of Europe. But yeah, I lived in Germany for 10 years, lived in Central America and traveled extensively in South America during that time.   (Louis O'Connor) (03:05.422) But my niche, if you will, you know one other business we're involved in. And my niche, what I'm looking for is always what I call, I don't know what you might call it in the US, but we sort of call it a path of progress play here, which is if you sort of look at an industry or a product, what's happened in the last 10 years, or even a country or even a business for that matter, if you look at what's happened in the last 10, you can sort of   have a look at likely what's going to happen in the next 10. So I'm always looking for somewhere where demand is increasing and supply is either going to be limited or subject to disruption and somehow, and that's what we will be talking to an agricultural product and we'll talk more about it. But I like to be diversified in every way. So I have business in Germany, this agricultural product is in Ireland.   I do my banking in Belize and Panama and different parts of Europe. So just trying to be as diversified as possible.   Right, right. And that's part of your kind of plan as well, right? Like to be kind of this international man of mystery, right? Like you have different ties to a couple of different countries, which gives you flexibility in case something goes wrong in one of them, right? Like, you know, I think a lot of people were worried here for a while and I think it's still in the back of people's minds in the United States about, you know, the strength of the dollar and   You know, people were talking about getting a second citizenship and things like that. Can you speak to that a little bit about kind of, you know, how you've done that and what your kind of thoughts and feelings are around that?   (Louis O'Connor) (04:46.552) Sure, sure. Well, you my feeling always has this peace of mind, you know, I just want peace of mind. I want to be at peace with myself and the world around me. that's, I mean, I'm probably talking about more philosophically and spiritually as well, but also, you know, in business or residencies or banking. I suppose it's because I left Ireland quite young and I did live.   I didn't just go on a vacation somewhere. lived in Germany for 10 years. I learned the language. Ireland is an island, even though we're part of Europe, continental Europe is completely different. And then I went to Latin America, which is a completely different kettle of fish altogether. And I suppose it was those experiences that the perspective that gave me was that, that sounds very simple, really, root of entry, but there's...   there's good and bad, know, you we do certain things in Ireland very well, and maybe other things not so well in Germany, they do, you know, they've made better cars and better roads. And we do and you know, Latin America, I think they dance better and drink better maybe than you know, but so yeah, what I learned is, you know, you know, you can pick is a bit like life can be a bit like a buffet, and you can pick what you like, and you know what you don't like leave behind, you know, so and the idea, I suppose the point I should make is that   What I've learned is it's not expensive or difficult to be diversified. Like have your banking in different jurisdictions really doesn't cost anything. Having a second or third residency if you do the right homework on I'll go into more detail if you want. have residency still in Panama and I three passports. I'm working on the fourth and it has been a little bit of effort but not expensive or costly.   And will I ever use it? I worried that the world's going to end? No. But it's just that peace of mind you have when you've got these other options that, God forbid if something did happen here in Ireland or Europe, I have a residency in Panama, I banking there. So it's just that, suppose it's like having a parachute or a safety net that's always there.   (Seth Bradley) (07:00.13) Yeah, yeah, I agree. mean, that's, you know, especially the way that things are today and people kind of just worry about things generally, right? If you have that peace of mind and you have that, you know, second or third option, it's just something that can kind of let you sleep at night a little bit better. It's like having a nest egg or, you know, having a second, third, fourth, fifth stream of income.   things like that that can let you sleep at night and while other people are panicking and worrying and making, you know, maybe even bad decisions based on that, you know, based on those worries, you can sleep soundly and make decisions that are best for you.   Yeah, yeah, and you're not limited, know, if you're just, you know, like, I mean, it's funny though, as well, I think it's timely. I think the time has come. I you see people, you know, we were chatting earlier, you know, being involved in multiple different industries and, you know, with technology, we're allowed to do that. We can reside in one country, we can do our bank in another, we can do our tax responsibility somewhere else, we can do our business. So it's probably just in the last 20, 30 years that we can move so freely.   with all this stuff, know, you know, only maybe 25, 30 years ago, I wanted to, I couldn't really do business in Germany, but live in Ireland, it'd have to be one or the other. There was no internet, you know, everything. So, so yeah, I think, I think we're heading in that direction anyway. And it's just, yeah, there's great freedom in it and great peace of mind, even though, you know, I mean, I'll be in Ireland for, you know, my two kids are, there's another six or eight years.   before they finish school. So I plan to be here, but I just have other options as well, you know.   (Seth Bradley) (08:41.42) Yeah, yeah, that's fantastic. And speaking of diversification, mean, your investments are very diverse, right? I mean, in the previous episode, we jumped into rare earth metals. And then in this episode, we're going to jump into something new. Before we jump into the new thing, though, give us a little update on what has changed in your business with the rare earth metals or if anything has changed or how those things are going.   Yeah, well, thanks. Thanks for asking, Seth. Since we spoke, actually, the big news is just in the last 60 days, I think I mentioned to you that China pretty much sort of dominates the rare earth industry. it's, I think really, it's possible and we understand now that China sort of saw before the EU and maybe before the US or they understood at least that rare earths would become   the backbone of manufacturing in the 21st century and they've been, you know, they've taken action on that. So we're in a situation now and it's not really an economic strategy. It's more of a geopolitical strategy that China has big plans for electric cars, big plans for solar, big plans for wind. you know, they, they've hundreds of million people, they're, taken out of the poverty, into the middle class all the time. So sort of   thinking strategically and long term, they rightfully secured their supply of rare earths. And what happened just in the last 60 days is the US sort of initiated a sort of a block. Now it was also supported by Holland and Japan and they're blocking sort of the latest sort of semiconductor technology from going to China. And in retaliation for that, China   You know, they have, you know, an ace up their sleeve, which is where it hurts. So the West has the technology and China has the raw materials. And just in the last 60 days, China has said they're going to, well, effective August 1, which is a month ago, they're restricting the export now of gallium and germanium, which is two of these technology metals, and that China, you know, is responsible for 95 % of the global production. so we're seeing the prices go up and this is sort of.   (Louis O'Connor) (10:57.826) what I talked to you about that these metals are in demand on a good day, you know, you will make a nice return. But if something like this happens where China sort of weaponizes these metals economically, then you'll see prices increasing quite dramatically, which they are. Yeah, that's that's what's happening there. It's basically a market where there's surging demand and you have sort of political landscapes affecting as well. So   It makes for interesting investment.   Yeah, yeah. Are these rare earth metals, are they not something that we can mine or is it something we're not willing to mine, like let's say in the West?   (Louis O'Connor) (11:44.142) Yeah, good question actually. that actually gets right to the heart of it, Seth, because despite the name rare earths, they're not all that rare. Some of them are as sort of common as copper and stuff, but there's about eight or ten of them that are rare and they are available in the US. But this is what's changed dramatically in the last 30 years is the rare earths don't occur naturally. So they always occur as a byproduct of another raw material.   They're sort of, they're very chemically similar. they're, sort of all stuck together. So they have to be extracted and separated and then refined and processed into, you know, high purity levels for jet engines or smartphones or whatever the case might be. what's happened where China dominates is, is China is responsible for 95 % of the refining. Now there's about 200 or sorry, $390 billion available in subsidies in the U S.   from the Inflation Reduction Act, which despite the name is all about energy transition. And that's all very well, except the human capital and the engineering expertise to refine rare earths is depleted in, it doesn't exist in Europe, and it's very much depleted in the US. Just to give you some context, there's 39 universities in China, where they graduate degrees in critical minerals.   So the Chinese are graduating about 200 metallurgists a week, every week for the last 30 years. I think the US has a handful of universities. I'd say there's probably 300,000 metallurgists in China and there might be 400 in the US and probably none in Europe at all. So it's not just a question of if they're there, it's how do we get them into 99.99 % purity? Without the engineering expertise, we can't, not anytime soon anyway.   Wow, yeah, yeah. mean, that just alone sounds like a recipe for a pretty good play for an investment. you know, there's these bottlenecks, right? Whether that's people that can refine it or the actual element itself or willingness to mine it, you know, all these different things come into play to make it a good investment. All right, let's switch over a little bit here. Let's talk about the new investment vehicle.   (Seth Bradley) (14:06.99) that you talked to me about. It's an agricultural play, correct? we're talking about truffles, talking about mushrooms, right? Tell me a little bit about it just to get started here.   Okay, well, you probably I mean, you know, truffles are in the culinary world, they're known as the black diamond of the kitchen, you know, they're, they're a delicacy going back to, you know, thousands and thousands of years. Traditionally, the black perigord, which is the Mediterranean truffle would have originated in France, but for the last sort of, you know, the last 100 years or so,   they've been growing abundantly in sort of South, Southwestern France, Northern Spain and Italy. So traditionally, you know, that's where they grow and they sort of, know, because the truffle, as you said, it's a mushroom that has a symbiotic relationship with a a native tree, an oak tree or hazel tree or sometimes beech. So it's a very delicate balance, you know.   And although I have invested in agriculture before, we started, we, I mean, a collective does not just me involved here, and I don't want to sound like I take credit for any of this really. I was just a part of a team where we had some agri-science people, and we had sort of four generational farmers involved. But we were looking at, it is no question that climate, there's a climate change, right?   It doesn't matter to me whether people, whatever the causes of that are, the reality is if you talk to an olive grower or a truffle grower in Italy or France, they'll tell you the climate has changed because their harvests have been decreasing for about the last 30 to 40 years actually, but really more so in the last 10. So we were sort of, I'll tell you basically the AgriScience partner involved in this.   (Louis O'Connor) (16:10.958) As a test back in 2005, they started to plant and the trees inoculated, the baby trees inoculated with the truffle sort of in the root system as a test all over different countries, not just Ireland, England, UK, also the US. So this has been in sort of research and development since about 2005.   And we got seriously involved in about 2015 when history was made and this Mediterranean truffle was grown here in the British Isles for the first time. we then with our agriscience partner in 2015 planted a thousand trees in five different locations in Ireland where I am.   and one of them is about 20 minutes away from me here. They're all secret locations. I won't even tell you where they are because they really are. They're highly valued or highly prized. And so it takes about four or five years to see if you're a business. So yeah, we now are growing the Mediterranean truffle, not just in Ireland, but in other parts of the UK. But the real interesting thing, Seth, it's just now ready for scale. And all of the farmers,   who were involved in the original research. None of them are going to take it to scale. The one that's local to me is a lovely gentleman. in his 60s and he planted a thousand trees really just as a retirement. His daughter works in banking in Switzerland and so there's nobody really to take over the farm. So we're the first to do it with scale. So we're inviting in...   a portion of some investors in as well.   (Seth Bradley) (18:05.87) Gotcha. Are there specific, I assume there are, are specific growing conditions where these things can prosper? Like I can't, I'm in San Diego, I can't just plant them in my backyard and wait five years and be a millionaire.   Well, if you you if I hear you're growing truffles death, you know, we should assign an NDA we should assign. You could try but no, they wouldn't grow in San Diego because I mean, there's a very delicate balance and you're what you're you're what you're using here is agri science and nature. You're working with nature. And because the reason they've grown so well in demand is   No way.   (Louis O'Connor) (18:48.738) just because of that balance up they get a sort of a dry season or sort of they got to get a lot of rain and then they get the dry season and what's happened is they're getting more drought and less rain and it's just upset the balance. So it's a very, very delicate balance. But what people wouldn't know, I think, is that truffles have always grown wild in Ireland.   There was a time five or 600 years ago when Ireland was 85 % forest and our native tree is the oak and the hazel tree, is the tree that's also where the fungus grows. And what happened was when the Brits were before, you know, when shipbuilding was the thing and the British Navy were, you know, the Spanish were, so the Brits sort of chopped down a lot of the forest for the wood for shipbuilding. you know, our forests were depleted. But to this day,   Truffles do still grow wild here, but we're doing it differently. know, we're only planting on land where you have like certain protein and pH levels and limestone. And then we're planting baby saplings that are already two years old that were inoculated with the truffle fungus like at birth, like in the root system. And we only plant them after we see that the root system and the fungi are already thriving.   So if you get into the right soil and it's already thriving, then two, three, four years later, you'll get truffles.   (Seth Bradley) (20:17.216) the interruption, but we don't do ads. Instead, know that if you're raising capital for real estate, my law firm, RaiseLaw, is here to give you the expert legal guidance you need to raise capital compliantly and structure and close your deal. And if you're looking for a done-for-you fund-to-fund solution, Tribest is the industry's only all-in-one setup and fund administration solution. Visit Raise.Law and Tribest.com to learn more.   That's awesome. just, I think about like wine and like, you know, you can grow it, you know, vines in different places. Some places they grow, some places they don't, some places they grow and the result isn't good and some places they grow and the result is awesome. It's probably a very delicate balance between, you know, environment plus how they're raised, how they're taken care of and all those sorts of things.   It is 100%. I mean, first and foremost, mean, because of angry science and technology today, you know, I mean, we can plant baby saplings that are already and not, I mean, we're playing God a little bit with nature, but you know, I mean, it's just amazing, you know, like you could do it. And then, you know, the biggest threat is actually mismanagement. You know, if you don't then manage it correctly. If you have a root system inoculated with the fungus and you have the right soil conditions,   after that and it's management and it's sort of bio security meaning they have a very pungent smell. mean, squirrels and pigs and they love them. They love to eat. So you have to, mean, you're literally it's like protecting a bank, know, you have a bio security fence. You've you know, you limit visitations to the farm, you've, know, special footwear and cleaning and stuff. so yeah, it's serious stuff, you know.   Yeah. Yeah. Wow. That's awesome. Well, let's dive in a little bit to the kind of the investment itself. Like what does that look like for an investor? Like what are your projected returns? You know, what, how does it all kind of, how does it all shape out? Like you've grown these wildly valuable truffles and now I guess the first step would be what's the business plan? Who are we selling these truffles to? What makes them so valuable? And then get into kind of the investor   (Seth Bradley) (22:33.794) portion like how would someone get involved in whether projector returns.   Okay, so we sell, first of all, the estate that the farm is, it's called Chan Valley Estate. People can Google it, it's beautiful. It's 200 acres of north-temporary farmland. The estate itself, it's a bit like a smaller version of Downton Abbey. It's a Georgian.   a three story Georgian home, it's over 200 years old. It's also a museum and we have events there and it's also a working farm. And it's a herbal farm. So we grow plants and herbs there that we then we have our own, we work the value chain where we also sell those herbs for medicinal purpose and we convert them into medicinal oils and things like that. So the location is already up and running.   And what we're doing with the truffles is for every acre, we can plant 800 trees. And so what we're doing is we're offering investors, well, a client, the minimum investment is $30,000 and the investor for that price gets 400 baby saplings already inoculated with the truffle fungus. And then they get the farm management   included up to the first four to five years. takes about, there'll be truffles after, bearing in mind that the sapling, the baby tree is two years old. So after three years in the ground, it's already five years old and there'll be truffles then and the returns don't begin until then. But what's included in the price is all the farm management, know, all the, you know, the,   (Louis O'Connor) (24:23.508) implementation of the farm, the irrigation, the electricity, the hardware that's needed. So all the management right up until there is production and then when they're producing, the investor gets 70 % of the growth and the farm management company, we get 30%. So it's a 70-30 split. Now the great thing about the oak and the hazel is they'll produce   for 30 to 40 years. it's a long term, it's a legacy investment, you might call it, because you won't see returns until the fourth or fifth year. But once you do, you'll see returns then for another 30 to 35 years. And they're very, very good. mean, we have three numbers in the brochure. We looked at what's...   price half the truffles never dropped below. So we have the very low estimate, which is they've never gone below this price. That brings in an IRR, which would be from day one of about 14%. And then the highest that they've sold for, you're looking at about 69%, but the average is about 38%.   So the returns will be very, very good once production kicks in and then they'll maintain. We've included an inflation for 30 to 40 years. I hope, I think I answered everything there.   Yeah, definitely. sorry. I gave you about six questions there to answer in a row. But yeah, I think you covered everything. And having an IRR, which is time-based on something that has this long of a horizon and even takes four or five years to even start producing, those are really, really strong numbers.   (Louis O'Connor) (26:23.63) Yeah, well, again, even the, you know, one of the reasons obviously we like truffles because they're very, very expensive. mean, they're a luxury product. You know, we're about an hour from Shannon Airport here, which is the transatlantic hub between Europe and the U.S. So we can have truffles in U.S. or anywhere in Europe or even the Middle East or the Far East, for that matter, in less than 24 hours. that's important as well. But they're a luxury item. There's huge demand for them. mean,   You know how the world is. mean, there are, unfortunately, you know, there's always sort of, people are getting richer and some people maybe are getting poorer. But the luxury, you know, high end market and the culinary, international culinary explosion means that, you know, there's huge demand for truffles. And also you have to factor in the fact that the harvests in the Mediterranean are less and less every year. And I mean, very, very sadly,   I mean, it's an opportunity for us, but very sadly that they've done very specific scientific studies and it's going to over the next 50 years, the truffle harvests in the Med will go will decline between 73 and 100%. So literally, they will not be growing truffles there in 50 plus years from now. So that's an opportunity for us. you know, again,   We've been working on this really since 2015. And it was only, you know, it was only 2019, 2020 when we began to get to truffles we knew because there was no guarantee, you know. But yeah, now that we're growing them, we just need to scale up.   Gotcha. Gotcha. what's kind of the I see that you know, for that minimum investment, you get X number of baby saplings. How many was that again? 400. That's what I Okay, 400. What's kind of the survival rate, I guess, of those saplings? Do you have kind of a percentage on that? Is it like?   (Louis O'Connor) (28:17.102) 400   (Louis O'Connor) (28:27.086) Yeah, well, we expect you got what's happening so far is within in about year three, which is actually year five, because the sapling, you should get three of the five trees producing. But once you have production, once that fungi is thriving, it will just continue to grow. So in year four, you should have four of them. In year five, you should have all of them producing.   Now we also put a guarantee in the farm management contract that if any tree, you know, if it dies or if it's not, you know, producing truffles, we'll replace it free of charge at any time. in the event, you know, for some reason, I mean, we put a tree in that's inoculated and it doesn't take, then we just replace it. So either way, over the first four to five years, we get them all. And the great thing is if you protect that soil from   pests and diseases and other sort of unwelcome sort of mycorrhizal or fungi, then it will thrive. It will thrive. It'll keep, you know, it'll spread, you know, it's a symbiotic relationship underground between the tree and the fungi.   Got it. Yeah, that's awesome to know. like survival is not one of the things that we should consider because if for some reason it wouldn't survive or is not producing, then it just gets replaced. So you actually are getting those full 400 saplings turning into trees that will be producing.   almost they mature and produce and you know as I said barring you know any pests or diseases or you know interference then they just continue you just protect them you just allow nature then to do its work.   (Seth Bradley) (30:18.848) Yeah, yeah. So what are some of the risks then? What are the downsides that you can foresee if something were to go wrong? What would it be?   Well, the greatest threat is mismanagement, literally. I obviously we're doing this with scale, so it's a professional endeavor, you know, people from time to time, know, I mean, some of the test sites here, mean, I don't know, it seemed like a good idea at the time, and they're not that hard to manage, but people just lose interest, or the younger kids don't want to farm. But the greatest threat is mismanagement. So as long as you put in these biosecurity measures,   and manage, you know, there's got to be some clearing done, there's got to be some pruning done, there's got to be tree guards. So there is a process involved in bringing them to nurturing them along and then keeping everything, you know, neutral, if you will. that's first, weather is always, you know, factor in agriculture. We don't feel it's as much of a threat here, because although we're for the first time,   growing the Mediterranean truffle. Truffles have grown, they grow here wild anyway. So the climate is right and has been right for thousands of years in Ireland. So, you know, and again, we'll have irrigation as well. You know, we get a lot of rain here. It's not likely we'll need any more rain, but yeah, we, you know, the agri-science will kick in there as well. And then, you know, as I said, like,   you know, biosecurity we call it, which is, you know, very, very serious fencing, limited visits to the farm, know, special footwear if people are going up to the area and sort of rinse. We have a pool area where they have to disinfect before they go into, you know, it's a very, very, very protected area from pests and from diseases or anything, you know, that could be brought in from the outside on whether that's machinery or humans.   (Louis O'Connor) (32:22.892) So yeah, it's almost like a laboratory. mean, you keep it very, very delicate balance and keep it very limited on who visits and, you know, people are a visit, but they have to be properly, you know, the feet have to be cleaned and footwear has to be worn and stuff like that. So, but, know, at the end of the day, Seth, it's, you know, well, any investment really, but agriculture, you know, the final say is in nature's hands, you know, not ours. mean, we...   We like to think, suppose, we're in the results business, but the reality is we're not. in the planning business and all we can do is plan everything as well as we can. It's just like, you if you planted a rose, you know, bush out in your backyard there today, you wouldn't stand outside and will it to grow, right? You know, grow quicker. You know, we have to allow nature and the cosmos to do its work. so yeah, nature has the final say, you know.   Yeah, yeah, no, totally, totally understand. And any investment has its risks, whether you're investing in truffles or real estate or any of the above. Quick question on this. Don't want to paint you like in a bad way at all, but we have had and it's not you, of course, of course, but we've had an influx of bad sponsors and people that are anything from mismanaging investor capital on one end, which can happen pretty easily. And there's not a whole lot of   Not a lot of bad blood there. Things happen. And then on the other side of the spectrum, we've seen everything from fraud to Ponzi schemes and all kinds of stuff lately. One thing that I tell investors is to make sure you know who you're investing with and make sure your investing dollars are actually getting invested where they're supposed to. Could an investor invest with you and actually go to the farm?   and see their saplings or see the farm and see this business.   (Louis O'Connor) (34:24.654) 100 % in fact, we would rather people do I mean, I it's not always possible. Right. But Shan Valley Estate, I mean, I'll give you the website and stuff after Shan Valley Estate. It's a 200 acre farm. It's already a museum. have events there. It's a herb dispensary as I said, as I said, it's our our manage our farm management partner is the Duggan family, their fourth generation farmers and they're being in temporary, you know,   longer than that even. absolutely, you you know, of course, there's legal contracts. mean, people get a legal contract for the purchase of the trees and then we have a legal contract for the farm management that we're responsible for implementing the project, we're responsible for bringing the hard, the trees to truffles to harvest. But we do, we just beginning, we just had our first tour, but it was sort of Europe from Germany. Last, sorry,   the 18th, 19th of August. But we will be having tours every quarter. And if anybody wants to come at any time, we'd be delighted to have them because it's like I said, it's like a smaller version of Downton Abbey. And we've accommodated, we converted the stables into accommodation, you know, because we have weddings and events and stuff there as well. It's not just a field that we bought.   Yeah.   And so it's a big deal. I'll give you the website. The location is spectacular and clients can, you know, stay the night, you know, and there's a three story Georgian estate house and the bottom floor is a museum. So it's like walking into a pharmacy from 1840, all the bottles and the counter is 200 years old, you know, and then the middle level, we've an organic vegetarian restaurant, all the   (Louis O'Connor) (36:17.24) food is grown on the farm. There's an old walled garden that they used to wall the gardens years ago to keep out the pests. And all the food that's served is grown on the farm. And then the top floor is accommodation as well and the stables have been converted. look, it's all about trust, Seth. And, you know, I would say to anybody, you've   I mean myself, if I have any doubt about anything, don't do it. And it might not be that somebody's a scam or a fraud, it's just if you're not 100 % sure about it, don't touch it. But what I would recommend is people do their due diligence because we've done ours. We've eight years invested in it, put a lot of time and effort into it. And at the very least, we'd like people to check it out and see it all the way through.   for what it is. yeah, we'll be, we're hoping to, we have a partner in Europe and we're to connect with somebody in North America. I don't want name anybody here because it might not come off, but there's a few sort of marketers and there's plenty obviously that we might sort of do a sort of an agreement with where they'll, you know, I mean, we could even have sort of investment real estate conferences on the farm.   you know, and do farm tours as well. so definitely 100 % we'd love for people to visit and, and they get to drink some Guinness and they're really brave, they can swim in the Irish sea.   Yeah, and I'm looking at the website right now. We'll drop that in the show notes, but it is absolutely gorgeous. I mean, it's making me want to get on a plane right now and check it out. It's incredible.   (Louis O'Connor) (38:00.046) Yeah, that's the estate, shambali.ie. I mean, what I love about it's 100 % organic or members of the Irish Organic Association, track ref, fourth generation. You know, this is not me, I'm a part of this, but the farm management team are, you know, they're already like growing herbs and plants and converting them to medicinal, you know, oils and things. And this is just another, it's more of a farming enterprise, I suppose, than a farm.   And then the other partner is the Agri Science Partner, which is this team of scientists who basically made history by growing for the very first time eight years ago, the black, the Mediterranean truffle in Ireland, you know, so there's a lot of professionalism and thought and effort being put into a chap.   Love that. Love that man. Is there anything else about this type of investment that I didn't ask about that I should have?   I think you know Seth, you should be on CNN or something because I you did. I'm pretty sure you did, you definitely covered it. I mean I may have left something out but I think it's a good foundation for somebody if they're interested, I'll give them my email and you know it's not that expensive to get to Europe and it's a great way to mix a holiday and you know come to the farm and stuff you know.   Absolutely, absolutely. Well, since you're repeat guest of the guest of the show, we won't go into the freedom for but you have one last golden nugget for our listeners.   (Louis O'Connor) (39:34.446) You know, I knew you were going to ask me that, Seth, you caught me off guard. So I have one ready and I stole this from someone else. So I'm not going to take it. But I was listening to a guy last week and he, sort of a big operation in Europe. And he was talking about a phrase they have in the office and it's 1%. And they always look at each other and when you pass them, they go 1%. And I love what it's about. It's about the idea that in a way it sort of comes back to what we talked about earlier, which is forget about.   Yeah.   (Louis O'Connor) (40:04.664) the fact don't think you're in the results business. You're in the planning business. And the 1 % is every day, try and improve every little action. I'm not just talking about work. I'm talking about family, your spiritual practice, if you have one, increase it by 1 % every day. And you know, it's like compound interest, isn't it? That in a way, then you don't have to worry about the big picture. And the results will just look after themselves then, you know.   Yeah, yeah, I love that man. Always improve. mean, you you've got to take small steps to get to those big goals. And a lot of times you just need to ask yourself, did I improve 1 % today? If the answer is yes, then it was a successful day.   Yes. Yeah. Yeah. And it's great because, you know, if I was to try and think now, or you were to try and think now, everything you have to do in the next three weeks, right, you just be overwhelmed, right. And sometimes my head is like that, you know, I mean, I've got meditation practice and stuff, but I watch my thoughts and you know, I mean, it's it's a fact. I mean, it's a human condition. I don't know, some disestimates of how many thoughts do we have a day? How many are repetitive and how many are useless?   A lot of them are repetitive, a lot of them are useless. So it's good just to narrow it right down to what's the next thing I can do right now and can I do it 1 % better than I did yesterday, you know?   Absolutely. Love that man. All right, Lou, we're gonna let us find out more about you.   (Louis O'Connor) (41:34.954) Okay, so they can email me. It's Truffle Farm Invest. Sorry, it's a new website www.trufflefarminvest.com or they can if somebody from your your audience wants to email me directly, it's louis at trufflefarminvest.com   Alright, perfect man.

Welcome to Raise the Bar with me, your host, Seth Bradley, where we have elevated conversations on raising capital, real estate, and entrepreneurship. Today, we have an incredible guest, Joe Fairless. If you've been living under a rock, then maybe you haven't heard of Joe, but everybody in my industry knows Joe as an industry leader, a thought leader.   real estate entrepreneur, extraordinaire, marketer, master marketer, all of the above. So Joe, welcome to the show.   Joe Fairless (03:10.36) Looking forward to our conversation, Seth.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (03:12.884) for sure man. So, you know, I like this question because it's kind of unusual and I have a hard time answering it and you might too, but we'll see. you know, when a stranger asks you what you do and it just comes up to you maybe at a conference or on the streets, what do you say?   Joe Fairless (03:28.398) I'd I buy apartment buildings.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (03:30.546) I love it. Keeping it simple, man. I guess that was an easier answer than I anticipated.   Joe Fairless (03:35.182) Well, yeah, I've been to in my early days I went to seminars and they have much longer more thought-provoking responses like, know, I help high income earners create passive income or something along those lines, but I keep it simple. I buy apartment buildings and then, you know,   let the conversation go where it naturally would go.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (04:06.366) I love that man. Yeah, and you know, to be honest, know, that response that you just mentioned is a little bit played out. Don't you think? I feel like if you're on LinkedIn or if you're on, you know, conferences, everybody's like, yeah, I raised capital from passive investors so I can help them do this and do that. Do you think that's a little bit played out? Do you think that people need to kind of change that marketing strategy at this point?   Joe Fairless (04:25.697) Well...   I think you should just be authentic. think just go with what feels right for you and what you'll enjoy talking about. Just go with what feels right for you. That's what I do. I am not a salesy person.   I feel uncomfortable if I'm trying to sell someone something. I believe in what I do, but I feel uncomfortable if I'm trying to force it. And so if I'm like, I was just at a dad-daughter dance this past Sunday and we met up with some couples that I didn't know any of them. was just couples that, you know, my daughter...   goes to their parents of the kids who go to school with my daughter. And so I was talking to one of the dads and he said, what do you do? I I buy apartment buildings. And he said, that's interesting. Then we started talking about what I do because he was naturally interested. And I enjoy that much more than trying to intentionally bait a hook. I'd just rather just have a conversation.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (05:40.03) Yeah.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (05:43.57) Yeah, yeah, I think that's the key, right? Especially in today's world where everything's online and you just get marketed to and advertised to all the time. You've got to be authentic and you need to have an elevator pitch, it's got to be authentic. It's got to be really who you are. And it can't be sales because people are so sensitive to that nowadays, whether you're raising capital or whether you're W2 doing your job. And we're all salespeople to a certain extent, whatever we do.   But people are very sensitive to that. So you've got to really focus on being authentic and coming from a place of genuineness.   Joe Fairless (06:20.91) Nobody in the world can do you like you do you. You've got a unique strand of DNA that no one else can be the Seth Bradley that you are, the Joe Farrells that I am, because it's impossible. It's impossible. There is no one like you. There is no one like me.   And it's just the more magnetic, the more genuine and true to who I am, the more magnetic I feel like I become because people enjoy authenticity and it's just the right way to play it, right way to do it.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (07:01.684) Totally, totally, totally. For our audience, just tell us what you're doing nowadays. mean, there's been kind of some changes in the market with the interest rates going up, those sorts of things, maybe starting towards the end of 2022. I know for myself, I was in the capital raising game for a number of years and then I kind of slowed down there towards the end of 2022, beginning of 2023, just to kind of see what the market was gonna do, just to see if we could still get some really good deals going, see if some of the other deals were going bad.   you know, what, what are you up to nowadays? Like what's your focus? right now.   Joe Fairless (07:36.77) The focus has been and always will be on our current portfolio and the deals that we have and operating those deals the best that we can and continuing to improve the NOI. So that is the focus.   There we have some deals that have floating rates with rate caps and the focus is to figure out how not to have floating rate with rate caps that you have to continue to renew once they expire. So that comes with refinancing and in order to refinance and sometimes you have to do a capital call or if you don't do a capital call you gotta bring in equity in some form or fashion to refinance.   some cases, it just depends on the deal. So the focus is on the portfolio and always will be. And then the secondary thing that we look at is acquisitions. How do we capitalize on the market that we're at right now? mean, the best way to describe it that I've read is it's stagnant. You know, it's just...   Not sure. The water, there's stuff growing in the water, but not sure if you really want to be part of what's growing in the water right now. Like it's just, it's stagnant and what will, but we also know what is coming.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (09:00.486) Yeah.   Joe Fairless (09:12.264) and that is the supply demand shift in multifamilies favor depends on the sub market and the market obviously. But generally the Sun Belt is going to greatly benefit in the next year, year and a half, in some cases six months from now.   with the supply-demand dynamic with new supply drying up and increasing the demand for the existing supply. Again, depends on the market, depends on the sub-market. So how do we capitalize on that? is there any way to be opportunistic with what's happening with some deals from other operators that   didn't work out. know, there haven't been a lot of foreclosures, but there have been some. And we have relationships with our lenders that are pretty strong. And in fact, one, a large lender that we have a really good relationship with, that we have properties with, they foreclosed on someone else's deal. And I won't name names on who they foreclosed on, but they foreclosed on someone else's deal and they came to us   Afterward and said hey here here. Here's a here's an opportunity. It's in a great area of Fort Worth and I'm from Fort Worth so I know we have a lot of property there too, but I know the market also I grew up there and We'll give you this special financing of around 3 % or so interest rate fixed interest rate   for year one and then it's fixed through the whole period of the loan but then the interest rate steps up to around four, four and a half percent over the five years. So to get that type of essentially seller financing but it's lender financing direct from the lender lending institution that foreclosed on the deal in a very good area of Fort Worth.   Joe Fairless (11:29.326) There are opportunities out there also. So it's how do we become opportunistic and find these deals. And so we're in the process of closing on that deal or doing due diligence on that deal. We're under contract and we're scheduled to close in about a month and a half from now.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (11:49.316) Awesome, awesome. Have you found it difficult at any point in time, kind of over these last couple years where the market has slowed down?   Joe Fairless (11:56.654) Whatever you're gonna say, yes. So finish your question, but the answer is yes. Yes, I found it difficult over the last couple years, but what exactly are you asking about that's difficult?   Seth Bradley, Esq. (11:59.732) Yeah. Sure. Specifically, should say sticking with multifamily because you are a multifamily guy and you you've seen you've seen where everyone, you know, everybody wanted that on that multifamily train for, you know, a decade, if not longer.   Joe Fairless (12:15.598) Mmm. Man.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (12:23.696) And now you've seen a lot of these same people change their tune and say, okay, well, you know what? Let's pivot to something else. Let's pivot to car washes or private credit funds or all these other things.   Joe Fairless (12:29.998) Man, I'm actually, I know you're an attorney, but can I strike my yes actually from that question? Cause no, actually the answer is no. I haven't found it difficult to stick with multifamily. Hell no. No. You know, you go to a restaurant at a diner and they offer lasagna, California roll and what else?   Seth Bradley, Esq. (12:41.16) Hahaha   Seth Bradley, Esq. (12:49.107) Ha ha.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (13:01.204) Ha   Joe Fairless (13:01.356) Pad Thai, you know, are they gonna have the best lasagna, California roll, and pad thai? No, no. They've got something for everyone, but they're not gonna be great at any of it. I'd rather go to an Italian restaurant that makes their own noodles, right? Makes their own pasta. And where they specialize in one thing.   Not at all. No, we I believe in the fundamentals of multifamily. I believe in the supply demand that is here. I mean we had a record number of supply across the board and multifamily and the occupancy maintained 90-91 percent depending on the market but it maintained in the 90s in a record number of supply and by the way at the same time you got   the capital markets raising interest rates the way they did. And a lot of people have been able to hold serve. And the fundamentals of the supply demand and how much...   how many renters there are out there and how that will continue is there. That's cold hard facts. There is demand, a lot of demand, and there will continue to be even more demand because the supply is trailing off. We have never looked.   outside of multifamily because it's so strong. I think that is a cultural thing actually because if you, anyone who's in the sports, college sports, they'll know about the NIL and   Joe Fairless (14:54.784) how you can bounce from one team to another year after year. And so you'll find some people who aren't starting and if they put in the work then, and I'm for NIL, I think players should be paid, but I don't think that they, I don't think they should, I don't think it serves them as young men and young women.   mostly young men in this case who are bouncing from place to place, to not compete and not work for a starting position and instead just go somewhere else the path of least resistance. That's not how you build character. There's a really good book, it's called The Road to Character.   and they talk about in the book, they give different examples of people throughout history. And they're not exceptional, like saintly people. They're people who are normal people, but what they did that is atypical for what our culture does now is they stuck with things even when it was tough.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (16:09.682) Mm-hmm.   Joe Fairless (16:09.998) and instead of bouncing from thing to thing because what happens is when you bounce from thing to thing you don't get an expertise you don't get the the depth of knowledge the scars that that you need in order to be truly exceptional at that one thing and it's just surface level   And it'd be like if you feed your kids candy for every meal. I mean, it's same thing. You can't live on mental candy, right? You gotta have some substance. You gotta go through things.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (16:43.06) Yeah, I love that man. I love that metaphor. I love that. Like you've got to get reps, whether the times are great or an easy or whether they're hard. And those hard reps are the ones that are really going to set you up for success down the line. Like if you're able to execute in the hard times, then when times turn good again, you're going to be at the top, right? You're going to be cream of the crop. What do you, what do you think it is about you and maybe your company that's enabled you to do that, to stick?   to multifamily and not say, ooh, you know what, I'm a really good marketer so I can raise capital for anything if I really want to, right? You're in that position and what is it about you and your company that's been able to allow you to stick to multifamily and just stick to it during these hard times?   Joe Fairless (17:32.762) the fundamentals are there. I mean, you could make an argument that if we were office investors, and I have some friends who are really keen on investing in office now and in the future, but you could very easily make an argument that with the amount of office space that people have currently, you don't need as much of that space.   It's not a five, you know, three to five to seven year play. Maybe it's a 20 to 50 year play. I don't know. Who the hell knows what's going to happen with office and working from home and AI and automation and all that. But with multifamily, the challenge is capital markets. Now there are some other aspects like the hyper supply, which has tapered off.   because of the higher interest rates increase in you know insurance which has tapered off back to the single digits by and large but that that was a big thing property taxes depending on where you're at but the fundamentals are there people are renting and consumers for yeah unfortunately for generally you know for the general consumer their credit card debt   is going up. They're still paying off their credit card debt from purchases almost 12 months ago. More than half of people are paying off purchases for more than 12 months ago. that's so right now they've been out earning their income because income has been increasing. But what happens if that income stops increasing the way it has been?   the debt's not going anywhere, especially credit card debt, and that's certainly not going to make more first-time home buyers that dynamic. So the fundamentals are there, and not to mention we already have a housing shortage deficit, major deficit.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (19:50.866) Yeah, so it's the belief and it's the knowledge like it's the education like you you know that the fundamentals are there you you're you're basing your resilience in the market to What you're seeing in the data like hey, it's you know We we believe in this asset type because of the data that i'm Well educated and well versed in   Joe Fairless (20:09.752) Mm-hmm.   Joe Fairless (20:14.346) Absolutely.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (20:16.168) That's incredible. That's incredible. Has anything changed in the way that you potentially because you've got a deal that might be going through in the way that you either have raised capital recently or how you are going to raise capital for your next deal as compared to when it might have been a little bit easier, let's say five years ago from passive investors?   Joe Fairless (20:38.612) Yes, we have implemented a system that I'm sure a lot of your listeners have heard of EOS, Entrepreneur Operating System, and that has been very helpful. We just did our focus day a month ago, but we've hit the ground running and we have our, I think, Vision Day part one later this month and Vision Day two.   next month and that has allowed ownership among the team members to really thrive because team members are responsible for rocks or their goals but if you say goals instead of rock they'll the EOS person will slap your hand so I'll continue to say rock so they're responsible for rocks and it's just   It takes more, the individuals on the team have more ownership. So that's not something sexy or flashy that I think your question was getting to. So I'll say something else that has been helpful would be doing Facebook ads for getting new accredited investor leads.   at scale. That's the best way that we found to get credit investor leads at scale is through Facebook ads. And we have an agency that we work with. And I just hired a director of marketing who has some really good experience and he's overseeing them and the marketing team. And then   Another thing that has been helpful that where I'd say just scratching the surface I'm a big proponent of AI and how I believe We are in the middle of a major change for our society with because of AI I think it is just as major of a change as it as it as when we all got internet in our homes   Joe Fairless (22:51.602) on a personal computer. I think it's that big to have access to, just think about phone books to Googling something on your computer. So with AI we've incorporated it and are incorporating as much as possible in one aspect to address your question about how we're doing things differently. One aspect.   is that on our investor calls, our prospective investor calls, we record them. They know it's being recorded and on a recorded line. We have an AI service that then takes the information from the call and grades the call. But then not only that is we look at, those investors, which ones of those investors invest?   What did we say? What did they say on those calls? What are some common commonalities? Which ones didn't invest? What did they say? What did we say? And starting to identify trends and words and topics to talk about and to address on the calls to increase the conversion rate.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (24:07.048) That's great, man. I love it. You kind of went full circle there. You've got EOS, which I'm a huge proponent of. We use that across the various companies that I have, some form or another. There's got to be a framework of organization and accountability and being able to look back and say, hey, we've had this problem before and here's how we solved it before. Or hey, this problem is still occurring from last week's L10 meeting. What do we need to do to improve it? How do we solve that issue?   Joe Fairless (24:33.166) Mm-hmm.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (24:36.712) How do we keep moving forward rather than, what did we talk about last week or what did we talk about last month? You've got to have a way to organize things and a way to solve issues organizationally, especially as you grow. So EOS, huge proponent of it, man. I mean, it's awesome. Like you have to have some form of it, even if it's not to a T with the book, Traction is where that comes from. You have to implement some form of organization and framework for your company. And then like you said,   Joe Fairless (24:41.389) Yeah.   Joe Fairless (24:56.575) Mm-hmm.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (25:03.284) you know, with AI, everyone has to stay on the forefront of what's going on right now. I know I was even a little resistant myself. was like, chat GPT, is that? Eh, you know, and put it off for a little bit. And then once you start using that, along with all the other things as well, I'm just using that as kind of a baseline, but just learning how to use chat GPT in your everyday life, it's just a game changer. Because now your whole thought process changes. It's not like,   Joe Fairless (25:08.547) Yep.   Joe Fairless (25:20.14) Mm-hmm.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (25:31.22) I need to put together this entire article or blog post. It's like, how do I prompt it correctly to to produce this blog post or this article in my voice and then edit it through that or, you know, all these different things you figure out, like how to prompt rather than how to actually take this solution all the way from start to finish. Let that technology tell you how to do it. So it's awesome. And then Facebook ads as well.   Joe Fairless (25:45.206) Mm-hmm.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (25:58.964) you've got to really dial those things in, right? It can be a money pit, but at the same time, if you can master that, and it sounds like you hired an agency that's very industry specific, which helps out a lot. And from what I've seen, we have gems, we have a capital raising business, we have all these different things, and finding somebody that's niche to that industry is super important.   Joe Fairless (26:22.434) That's right.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (26:25.756) I'd love to go back and stay on this capital raising subject, especially for people that just started out. So like now you're doing EOS, now you're using AI, now you're using Facebook ads, do you have some capital to be able to invest in those ads? What about for somebody that's just kind of starting out? they're, you know, maybe this is their first fund to fund or, you know, their first property that they're raising capital for. Like how do they effectively launch their first   Capital Race.   Joe Fairless (26:56.59) Well, I would read the book that I wrote on syndication because I walked through the whole process of that best ever syndication book. So, but for this this relatively short conversation, I'd say first,   Seth Bradley, Esq. (27:04.404) Great book.   Joe Fairless (27:19.606) People have to make sure you have to make sure that people perceive you and you are actually a real estate expert and That because you might have you might have been if this your first one first deal then I'm assuming you came from some other industry or   If it was real estate, maybe you're a property manager, they don't know about all aspects of your expertise as it relates to real estate. you've got to, by having a thought leadership platform, you'll interview others who have that experience, you'll continue to learn, hone your skills, and then you'll also be associated with those who have those skill sets, and that will be helpful for you.   Once you do that, assuming that you are the expert and you are also perceived as the expert, then what I would do, and what I did actually on my very first one is I created a spreadsheet. And the spreadsheet had the name of the person, how I knew them, and then,   What I did is I wrote down all the different names and then how I knew them. So for example, I was on the alumni advisory board for Texas Tech. I was on a flag football team in New York. I wrote someone's name down there. On my flag football team, was working at different companies. I worked at different companies, so I wrote down different coworkers at different companies.   the key here for doing it this way is identifying the person. So then you sort them by how you know them. all the people from the flag football team would be sorted together. All the people from XYZ company would be sorted together. And then you identify the most influential person within that group. And you talk to him or her.   Joe Fairless (29:39.306) about your opportunity. And once you talk to him or her about the opportunity, and if they find it appealing or at least they want to learn more about it, then you can go to the next person in that group and you can name check. You can say, I was just talking to Seth about this and he's got some follow-up questions about it and I thought it also would make sense to talk to you about it too.   So then you come in a little warm with the group dynamic versus if you come in cold on an individual level.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (30:11.924) Mm-hmm.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (30:18.822) I like that man. That's a very, very nuanced strategy tidbit there. What I really heard was, you know, authenticity and authority, authenticity in that. Yeah, you've got to educate yourself. You've got to be a real estate expert if that's what you're raising capital for and authority. And then you've got to show people, you know, why you're the expert, why you know all these things, why they should listen to you to invest in something like this and even leveraging the authority of others with that.   that strategy where you go to this influential person and say, look, this person likes this deal too, and here's why. And then they can go to them and they kind of look to them as additional authority because they kind of look to them as that thought leader or that leader in general. So pretty great, man. Start wrapping this up, but this is kind of a nuanced question that I love to ask and ...   Because once upon a time I went to I went to med school for a little while and then I dropped out and because I just I hated it knew it wasn't for me and I'm going to law school and then got into real estate. So you know in a parallel universe tell me about a different version of you a different but likely version of you if you didn't exist as you do today because right now you know you're you're an apartment buyer you're a great marketer you're an entrepreneur.   Joe Fairless (31:38.164) I'd say I really enjoy coaching my daughter in soccer. I do not know soccer. I grew up in Texas. I played football. I played baseball. I ran track in that order. There wasn't a soccer option or maybe even a soccer ball in Texas when I was growing up. But I enjoy coaching and in an alternative universe, I would   I would do more of that because time is, it flies whenever I'm doing that.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (32:15.036) Awesome, awesome. All right, Joe, for our listeners out there, what can they find out more about you?   Joe Fairless (32:21.494) You can go to AshcroftCapital.com and if you're looking at passive investing or if you're an operator or someone who is partnering with others, then my conference is a good place to be. It's besteverconference.com. It's gonna be March 3rd and 4th in Salt Lake City this year.   I can get a discount code to your people too.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (32:52.51) Great, yeah, I'll drop that in the show notes and I'll see you there, Joe. So we'll shake hands in person. So thanks again for coming on the show. Really appreciate it and we'll catch you next time.   Joe Fairless (32:57.304) Sweet. Awesome.   Joe Fairless (33:05.518) You know what, in just a second, I'm gonna just tell you the code, that way you don't have to do any work. Whenever I do a podcast and someone says, I'll send it to you, I'm like, more work for me to do later. So, all right, here's a code. Hurry 25, it'll be 25 % off all ticket types. H-U-R-R-Y, all lowercase, and then number 25, you get 25 % off all tickets, except for the LP ticket.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (33:09.917) Okay.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (33:13.808) Yeah, I know then you gotta follow up.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (33:35.924) Let's roll right into these million dollar questions and then I'll let you go.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (33:44.884) Alright Joe, let's jump into this. So, how did you make your first million dollars?   Joe Fairless (33:52.185) Same way I made my last one so spoiler alert. It's it's selling when a deal exited so The is probably The seventh or eighth Deal I had one million dollars on one transaction, right? Like is that chunk about? Yeah, I   Seth Bradley, Esq. (33:55.56) Hahaha   Seth Bradley, Esq. (34:12.767) Really million dollars in your net worth   Seth Bradley, Esq. (34:17.96) What puts you over the edge there? How did you grow that first million?   Joe Fairless (34:21.626) I lost my first million before I ever came across it. That was on the very first deal. It would just be, it'd probably be through an exit of a deal.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (34:26.056) Ha   Seth Bradley, Esq. (34:35.614) Sure, yeah, and I'll bet it's probably similar. mean, how are you gonna, how are you planning on making your next million dollars? Same thing, the apartments, all about apartments, man. I love it, singular focus, that's where it's at. mean, riches are in the niches.   Joe Fairless (34:41.144) Same thing. Yep. The apartments. All apartments. That's right.   Yep.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (34:52.564) All right, you're clearly in the top 1 % of what you do. What is it about you that separates you from the rest of the field?   Joe Fairless (34:58.958) Mmm.   I do what I say I'm gonna do. And sadly, that separates me from a lot of people, not all people.   but that's a big focus of mine. And it's not about my, I recently read something that resonated and that was don't focus on your reputation, focus on your character. Reputation is such a vanity metric, but the character is who you are when no one's looking and being proud of who you are. And that's vital to me.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (35:37.524) Yeah, and it's not just saying what you're going to do to other people, but also with yourself, right? To yourself.   Joe Fairless (35:43.726) Mmm good point. Yeah when you're when when I'm on those runs and I can just stop Whenever I want But then I'll be I'll know I'll know I didn't go through this, you know, you know made up finish line that I had predetermined in my head and And that's that's there's there's something to be said there. I'm glad you brought that up   Seth Bradley, Esq. (36:10.644) Yeah, that's that's the key right? It's not just when somebody when it's dependent on somebody else or somebody else is watching It's you know, what do you do when nobody's watching and what do you do when it's just a promise to yourself? Do you follow through do you keep those promises things as easy as hey when you set your alarm in the morning and you wake up Do you do you get up or do you hit the snooze button? Like you made a promise to yourself the night before to wake up and get up when that alarm goes off Do you keep that promise?   Joe Fairless (36:15.415) Mm-hmm.   Joe Fairless (36:25.229) Yeah.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (36:39.12) Awesome. All right, brother. I think that should do it. I will see you. I'll see you at BC, man.   Joe Fairless (36:46.42) Awesome. I appreciate it. yeah, if anything you can do to help get to get the word out about the conference to your email list, I'd appreciate that also. All right. Thanks, Seth. All right. Bye.   Seth Bradley, Esq. (36:57.404) Absolutely. All right, brother. Talk soon. See you.

Maybe I'm not afraid because it just feels temporary. The noise in the apartment made it easy to let go, and better yet, because of the noise— the only way a pro bono lawyer might speak with me is if I was evicted— then, explaining away that from the day I moved into the apartment my mental health began to spiral and, that recovery from homelessness and having left an abusive relationship became impossible with motorcycles and modified cars circling like buzzards, gangsters slanging on the corner banging music I hated, and an all around environment of unwellness, in which I was unable to cope with the mechanisms of even the simplest tasks, after being bombarded by these hellish people. I was sure that speaking with one sort of lawyer and explaining my heavily documented case would eventually lead to meetings with another kind of lawyer who would see my case and agree that I had been attacked, and severely wounded— and eventually, probably, compensated. It simply wasn't facet of my imagination but seemed there was sort of hate group targeted to stalk and harass me— even in Manhattan, after visiting the Apple Store, a random pair of motorcycles approached and revved their engines thunderously as I walked back to the studio, even startling another passerby, as she shook her head as if to say “that was horrible”, with this look of fear and disgruntlement. It had been two years of this for me, though, and so I was somewhat used to it. It still hurt, but not the way it used to. Inside, sort of like the way a boxer knows how to take a punch because he's trained for it. But this was not my job, and I was not getting paid, unless I could actually put my mind together enough to assimilate some sort of strategy; a lawsuit against the property management and the city itself for allowing the harassment, and at the end of the day, it didn't much care who was responsible, and whether it was politics or street theatre— I just wanted it to stop. I could honestly say that any sort of legal action was indeed not about the money, but rather an escape. Would I live in New York if I did not have to? Not by any means, anyway, in the way I did. Just the view alone set me off, and anytime one of the foam panels fell out of the window from sun or dust and the lot of cars and busy intersection peered through, a gut wrenching anxiety came over me like the way it did when I first saw it; even then, when I first viewed the apartment, I knew that something bad had happened here before I even moved in— and it was bad, the constant motorcycle attacks, and at one point they were not at all writeable enough off as “normal noise”, the way they used to wait until I was almost a sleep to rip through the block and create sonic booms that sounded like bombs—eventually these kinds of attacks stopped but it was around the first year that I started to realize due to these series of traumas my brain was wired differently.i understood that she's were acts of war, but why? I had no intentions of stirring anything up in this place and honestly, from the start, because I was stuck, I had just wanted to get out. Hold on. I got two jokes. Ok. What was the one about— Oh, it's so simple but since they hate black women so much it would probably make a white audience laugh. My ex punched me so hard, I thought I was going to run for president in 2028. That's it? That's the joke. That not a joke. You're right. That's not a joke. I'm not though. I realized that. Please. Don't hit me. [beat] Unless you hit me hard enough that I actually become the actual president. Then, you're free to assassinate me. Thats the joke? Yeah. What a horrible joke. Yeah. Kind of. Okay. What's the other one? It's the—it's that enter the multiverse joke on the Sean Evans timeline. Ok. (Who is Sean Ryan) Idk. [Sean Ryan was the Showrunner of The Shield, Starring Michael Chiklis and Walton Goggins__which ran from 2001-2007, and also fostered the writing career of Kurt Sutter, who went on to create Sons of Anarchy.] Anyway. One of the contestants from hot ones calls Sean and goes, Sean! And Sean's like: Whaddup? Sean! How do you do this bro? [sean is eating ghost pepper cereal for breakfast with ice cold horchata ) Ew. Nice. It was gonna be milk but SEAN EVANS (Aside) The cinnamon gives it a nice schwing. Apparently, The training for hot ones is a non-stop tolerance-topper. Sean RYAN is always doing his best to outdo himself. Yeaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh! Thats right. Any fucking way. Sean! How do you do this everyday, buddy! Do what? My butthole is burning! I don't have one. You— what? I do not any longer have a butthole. Beg your pardon. I got it removed. What. What. Hold on, it's a multilayer joke. 2x Joke multiplier! Are we still playing this game? OH YEAH! goddamn. I really wanna see this fictional koolaid movie. WHERE'S SETH ROGEN? ROB LOWE is directing an episode of ENTER THE MULTIVERSE. DIRECTOR Quiet on Set! He turns to DRAKE BELL who is reprising his role as TIMMY TURNER. ROB LOWE Sorry, is that triggering to you? Nothing is said but instead he just shoots him a look. really on it with the zingers today. What can I say. I juice fasted and then ate like a normal person so maybe— I don't know. What's that supposed to mean. Everything is temporary. My next run isn't scheduled until after midnight but I might climb on the Peloton for an ironic spin. I owe everyone money. Not in the way that I ever wanted to be this bum, but in the way that all of my jobs have been awful enough that— honestly, I never quit, it just eventually all falls apart. I've been almost fondly remembering the— {Season 5} —summer in Las Vegas I had two awful jobs, no car, no place to live, and One boss who looked like Dillon Francis— And well. INT. LAS VEGAS ATHLETIC CLUB. WHENEVER. ITS OPEN 24 HOURS!!! WHEEEEEE!! Omg that guy looks just like Jimmy Fallon. BEFORE Oh, hi Jimmy. Hey! You finally noticed. I been noticing. You know I'm in a screen, right? You're in all the screens. Not all of them. ALL THE SCREENS A large wall of paneled Televisions hangs above the cardio center. … … MEANWHILE For while, the dude was everywhere. And I mean— Yo! I swear to God— —don't do that! — every time I look at a fucking tv, you're on it! shhh—watch your language! For what! You're on the Telivision, I'm not. You are on the Television! I'm not! —look just— trust me I don't have enough time before we're about to cut to co—[mmerciial!] [cuts to commercial] That dude is weird. Hm. That dude does look like Jimmy Fallon. — and one boss that looked like— Well, you get it. Yes he does. Very much so. Hm. Should I fuck him? Ew! No! What! Gross . No. Take his job! What? This incompetent drunken loser was, for a very short time— my manager. Just then when the car alarm when off, I express my not so subconscious, and must remark To remind my dear audience that this SUPACreature Is exponentially explicit, hence the Sexual exploitation of he who is hereby known As [Not] Jimmy Fallon. He was maybe the worst boss I ever had. If not the worse, definitely one of them. He was always drunk, Slept on the job, Was inappropriately explicit, Sexualized everything, And bitterly racist, Lived with his mother, Had social problems And was, Of course— Completely incompetent. Two hosts sit watching the serason premiere with popped corn. Oh. That's clever That's funny. See, those redactions could have been anybody. They were anybody. M— Jimmy!? Which Jimmy?! Last time I had a visionary dream about Jimmy Kimmel he was holding a white candle. At any rate, they were out of black, and I have no idea what that's supposed to mean, but I can only assume that when any host takes an extended hiatus, it's some kind of Contractual agreement. Ah-hem… Sign it. I don't know… about… that. And why not? This creature is one of the most powerful in the multiverse. [Jimmy Fallon] TINA FEY What. Are you serious. —and that's my time. Just trust me on this— NO. Pretty please! Oh, welL, since you made it pretty. Really? NO. Absolutely not. You are increasingly difficult. I learned to brew at thought at wishing wells Again, I gallop, striving to dance past the forced illusions of a non-corrupt decision, The end is near and also, simply The Division. ENTER THE MULTIVERSE: L E G E N D S — The Rock and And the Kite Part X: The Division Bell Part 10?! Yes. How is it part ten? Where are parts 6 through 9 I don't know. I have no clue. (You have no idea) Oh. I get it. The parenthesis are the voice of God. (It's all the voice of God, These are just more strong dictations.) Fix your diction! Fix your Dick Nixon if it don't swing left; On a finite curve, It switches with any direction, Irregular, my guest; I could have asked that. I have no tact, And no talent, No candles left, I can't relax! I just happen to have What I know I can't stand, And that's— High standards for a man. So I imagined a fantasy. My next run was scheduled for midnight but I'd spent the month suffocating and suffering in waist trainers navigating vampires and I had even been stood over by the actual Devil herself on the subway ride home. What even was the point of running all this way and eating all this well If no matter who I tried to love would really turn to the same old evil thing that wanted me dead in the first place? Being honest, I still didn't know what it was at all— but maybe it was always going to try to bite me no matter what I did. So It didn't matter much when the overdue balance came equal to the amount I needed to purchase club standard CDJs, I didn't care about anything because I was never treated fairly with honest or good intentions. Not even from my birth, or my mother, and perhaps that was the problem. My human perception of the world was trained by this thing who could never really see my value or worth in the way that it would take to be fully loved. Something was always wrong with me, and so something was always wrong with the world. All I knew was, I wasn't panicking though it had been an obvious attack— the email had sent as I orgasmed, after a series of the same old system of stress I'd been in for years— revving engines and long bangs and other methods of keeping me from reaching climax— but it was my body, and so just because I was under surveillance for whatever reason; perhaps they were listening and this self release made them uncomfortable, but I needed it. It had been years since my last loving embrace— since my last touch, or stroke, or kiss— and so yes, while admittedly my senses were out of place, they were also heightened in that I knew what was happening in my apartment was wrong, and the worse it got, the more I kept track of the things that were happening, the better off I'd eventually end up, just by respecting myself and my own time. I needed recovery; running down the the gym to be hatestalker by some half naked model or some egotistical little man throwing and slamming things around was going to do no better for my psyche even with a run considered; instead of a mile of mantras, it would instead become a mile of trying to ignore whatever whoever had followed me into the gym was doing to get my attention. Luckily I had a Peloton in my room and with any luck at all, by the afternoon I'd have all the focus in the world to ride it— but for now I was writing, and thinking, and feeling my insides out after a long month sonic alchemy, which had also resulted in my finally reaching the conclusion that I was indeed being followed around. But why? Lil bitz Yo imagine if Amazon had a comment section. Not like reviews but an actual like— Comment section for the ads and products. Don't act like it wouldn't be the little place to just, like, go.

Aujourd'hui, Fatima Aït Bounoua, Charles Consigny et Antoine Diers, débattent de l'actualité autour d'Alain Marschall et Olivier Truchot.

En République centrafricaine, les inquiétudes sur l'état de santé du chef de l'État se sont dissipées. Faustin-Archange Touadéra se porte bien et sera candidat à l'élection présidentielle de décembre prochain. C'est ce qu'affirme l'un de ses proches sur RFI. Évariste Ngamana est à la fois le premier vice-président de l'Assemblée nationale et le porte-parole du parti au pouvoir MCU, Mouvement Cœurs Unis. En ligne de Bangui, il répond aux questions de Christophe Boisbouvier et s'exprime d'abord sur la catastrophe qui a provoqué la mort de 20 personnes dans la capitale centrafricaine, le 25 juin dernier. RFI : Le 25 juin, c'était le jour des examens au lycée Barthélemy Boganda de Bangui. Il y a eu une bousculade mortelle qui a tué 20 personnes, dont 19 lycéens. À l'origine de cette tragédie, il y a eu l'explosion d'un transformateur électrique. Que répondez-vous à l'opposition qui dénonce votre irresponsabilité, à vous les autorités centrafricaines, et qui vous accuse d'avoir « failli à votre devoir de garantir la sécurité des élèves » ?  Évariste Ngamana : C'est faux et archi-faux, ce que dénonce l'opposition. Il s'agit ici d'une récupération politique. Nous regrettons tous ce qui s'est passé au niveau du lycée Barthélemy Boganda, mais cet accident malheureux est dû à une explosion du transformateur qui se situe dans l'enceinte même de ce lycée. Et au moment où les élèves composaient, le personnel de l'Enerca, la société nationale d'électricité, est passé faire des travaux d'entretien et c'est par la suite qu'il y a eu cette explosion. Donc une enquête est en cours. Le directeur général de l'Enerca, il est mis aux arrêts et il est entendu, ses collaborateurs sont entendus et si leur responsabilité est établie, à ce moment-là, ils vont être placés sous mandat de dépôt. Mais le cas échéant, ils vont être purement et simplement relâchés. Donc, nous laissons la justice faire son travail et, à l'issue, nous saurons qui a fait quoi.  Pour la première fois depuis 1986, c'est-à-dire depuis presque 40 ans, l'État centrafricain veut organiser cette année des élections locales. La date est fixée au 31 août, mais l'expert des Nations unies Yao Agbetse dit que cette date est compromise par « de sérieux obstacles opérationnels » ...  Vous savez que nous avons des calendriers qui ont été établis par l'Autorité nationale des élections et, effectivement, l'ANE a connu quelques problèmes liés à des questions techniques. Le gouvernement, ainsi que l'Autorité nationale des élections, sont à pied d'œuvre. Une alternative est en train d'être trouvée et, pour ce qui me concerne, je pense qu'il y aura un léger décalage par rapport à cette date, lié à ces problèmes techniques qui sont en train d'être réglés. Dès lors que la liste définitive va être publiée, à ce moment-là, nous saurons à quelle date ces élections locales vont être organisées.  La liste définitive des électeurs ? Effectivement. Alors, vous dites que ces élections locales vont sans doute être décalées. Est-ce à dire qu'elles auront lieu après l'élection présidentielle et les élections législatives prévues le mois de décembre prochain ?  Oui, pourquoi pas. Nous avons attendu depuis plus de 40 ans. Je pense qu'il n'y a pas feu en la demeure. L'essentiel, c'est que ces élections soient organisées.  Lors de cette élection présidentielle, est-ce que le président Touadéra sera bien candidat à un nouveau mandat ?  Le parti MCU a prévu d'organiser son congrès du 25 au 26 juillet et c'est au cours de ce congrès-là que le Mouvement Cœurs Unis va investir son candidat. Et pour moi, il ne fait aucun doute que cela soit le président Touadéra.  Alors, il y a tout de même eu des inquiétudes au sujet de la santé du chef de l'État, puisque le 21 juin, il est parti en Belgique pour se faire soigner. Qu'est-ce qui s'est passé ?  Pour moi, le chef de l'État reste un humain susceptible d'être malade, d'avoir eu quelques maux de tête, ce n'est pas un extraterrestre. Mais cette rumeur vient du fait de la manipulation de l'opposition qui n'espère que la mort du président. Mais c'est Dieu qui détient la vie de tout le monde. Donc, puisque l'opposition est en perte de vitesse, donc cette rumeur, cette manipulation est du fait de l'opposition. Mais le président se porte bien, vous l'avez vu, il a participé au sommet de l'Alliance Gavi [à Bruxelles le 25 juin]. Il est revenu au pays. Il était au chevet des accidentés du lycée Boganda. Le week-end, il a reçu les parents des élèves qui sont décédés. Il est en train de mener à bien sa mission. Il se porte bien et, au moment venu, il sera candidat.  Il y a quand même eu une certaine inquiétude, je crois, le 21 juin. Nos confrères d'Africa Intelligence précisent qu'il a été évacué en urgence vers la Belgique à bord d'un jet médicalisé Bombardier Challenger… Ce que Africa Intelligence dit n'engage que Africa Intelligence, mais je vous dis que le président a profité de son séjour à Bruxelles pour faire quelques bilans de santé. Et la preuve, c'est que, quelques jours après, vous l'avez vu, il était présent à ce sommet de l'Alliance Gavi. Il est rentré au pays, il se porte bien. Voilà.  N'a-t-il pas eu un malaise soudain lors d'une réunion ministérielle à Bangui, comme le disent nos confrères d'Africa Intelligence ? Je dis que ceux qui parlent là, ils n'ont jamais eu quelque chose dans leur vie, ne serait-ce qu'un mal de tête. Donc pour moi, ce sont des détails inutiles. Aujourd'hui, il y a un élément factuel qui est là. Le président de la République se porte très bien, il est en train de travailler comme d'habitude et le reste n'est que des supputations pures et simples.

En dessous de 100 degrés : voilà la clé de la vapeur douce. Universelle, cette méthode de cuisson ne connait pas de frontière, elle est considérée comme la meilleure pour les aliments et pour la santé. La vapeur cuit sans qu'il faille ajouter quoi que ce soit, les fibres sont restructurées, le fruit est fondant, et il n'est nullement nécessaire d'ajouter du sucre.   Tous les fruits peuvent être cuits, le jus des fruits cuit avec les fruits et donne un sirop naturel. Les déclinaisons ne manquent pas : du flan aux clafoutis, aux pains, aux gâteaux nuages, aux mousses, pickles et fruits réhydratés.  Avec Stéphane Gabrielly, cuisinier, formateur à l'École Ferrandi Paris, sourceur de paysans producteur, et auteur de 2 livres autour de la vapeur douce, aux éditions Albin Michel : plats gourmands, vapeur douce et sublimez les produits du marché à la vapeur douce.   EN IMAGES   Pour aller plus loin - Desserts à la vapeur, de Jennifer Hart Smith - Autour du vitaliseur de Marion et les recettes - Pour la vapeur douce, utilisez une couscoussière, un panier vapeur, un panier vapeur en inox ou encore une marguerite. - À toute vapeur ! sur RFI.   Programmation musicale : Love High, de Gaby Hartman.

The Tragically Hip Top Forty Countdown: Song 19 – Jeff from BellevilleWelcome back, Hip faithful. This week on the Countdown, I'm joined by one of our most beloved Sunday Evening Jam regulars — the witty, wise, and wonderfully loquacious Jeff from Belleville. You know him. You love him. And if you've ever caught a live stream where he was in the comments, you've probably laughed out loud.But today? Today, we go deeper.Jeff takes us back to his teenage years, up in a century-old Belleville coach house where Road Apples first took hold and never let go. From bootleg tapes and roadside attractions to mosh pits, surprise shows, and backstage encounters — Jeff's Hipstory spans 31 shows and countless life moments tied to the soundtrack of this band.Along the way, we talk memory, meaning, and mortality — including the two cardiac arrests Jeff survived (yes, you read that right), and the unexpected video message he received from Paul Langlois while recovering. This episode reminds us why we do this show in the first place: for the love, for the connection, for the community.We even get a bonus English Lit breakdown of King Lear — and how defiance, irony, and Shakespearean tragedy might be woven into one of the Hip's most poetic tracks. (And yeah, we manage to keep the actual title of that track on the DL. You're welcome.)
