In this episode of Hurdle, host Emily Abbate sits down with two-time Olympian and 2018 Boston Marathon champion Des Linden for a conversation about redefining limits. Fresh off completing the legendary Marathon des Sables (MDS)—a grueling, self-supported 167-mile stage race across the Sahara Desert—Des takes listeners directly inside her tent. She shares the realities of surviving on grit, managing endless blisters, and navigating the longest run of her life: a staggering 62-mile day. Des breaks down the exact mindset it takes to avoid "negotiation mode" when the going gets tough and explains how her recent transition into the ultra-trail world has altered her relationship with the sport. Plus, she gives us a behind-the-scenes look at running the Boston Marathon as a "commoner" alongside her husband, Ryan, and her recent trip to the London Marathon. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS The Reality of MDS: Why Des swapped the roads of Michigan for the Sahara, how she managed self-supported gear, and what it’s really like to share a rudimentary tent with seven other runners. Silencing the Inner Negotiator: Des outlines her mental strategy for pushing through low moments and why reaching a state of self-pity only slows down forward momentum. The Blister Protocol: A look at managing the inevitable physical toll of a multi-day desert race and choosing to stay positive through the discomfort. Boston as a one of us: What it felt like to start further back in the corrals, weave through massive crowds, and burn extra matches to finish right before her husband, Ryan. The Next Chapter: Des chats about her strategic pivot to media and storytelling with her podcast Nobody Asked Us, her upcoming plans for the Chicago Marathon, and her sights set on the Havlina 100. QUOTABLE MOMENTS "The guardrails are off. Let's see where this goes." "This is literally what you signed up for... make the decisions to make the right choices because that's really what the event for me is all about." "As soon as we start to feel sorry for ourselves, it's like, you're just not going to be productive. So, take the little wins." "No one's going to fight for you as much as you... if you're not believing in yourself even more than everyone else, you've got to really think about what you're doing."

Social media makes it easy to compare your business to everyone else's highlight reel. New trucks. Bigger shops. Record revenue. Growing teams. But what you don't see is the balance sheet behind the post. Debt, cash flow, profit, payroll, stress, and the sacrifices it took to get there. In this episode, we're talking about why the numbers that matter most are usually the ones nobody shares, and how to stay focused on building the business and life you actually want.

With Toy Story 5 introducing a new villain, Movie Mike explores a surprising Pixar pattern: many of the studio's greatest heroes and villains started with the exact same emotional wounds. From Jessie and Lotso to Buzz Lightyear and Syndrome, he breaks down how Pixar proves that it's not what happens to you that defines you…it's how you choose to respond! In the Movie Review, Mike gives his thoughts on Toy Story 5 starring Tom Hanks and Tim Allen. Woody, Buzz, Jessie and the crew find themselves going up against a new tablet named Lilypad, who thinks she knows what's best for Bonnie, setting up a battle where Toys vs. Tech. Mike shares how they tricked us into watching a remake, if it’s worth paying money to see in theaters and where he thinks it ranks in the franchise. In the Trailer Park, Mike talks about The Social Reckoning, a companion piece to The Social Network which came out in 2010. It focuses on the fallout of the 2021 Facebook leaks, following whistleblower Frances Haugen and Wall Street Journal reporter Jeff Horwitz as they expose the company's internal secrets. Mike wants to know if it’s too late for this movie and why Jesse Eisenberg turned it down. New Episodes Every Monday!

Ashley Barnes is back for her fourth appearance on The Bourbon Life Podcast, and as always, she brings plenty of insight, honesty, and exceptional whiskey along for the ride. Matt and Mark catch up with Ashley to discuss her recent departure from The Spirits Group and her exciting new chapter as an independent blending consultant, while continuing her role as Master Blender for The Blending House. Ashley shares what this transition means for her career, the opportunities it creates, and why she's more excited than ever about the future of whiskey. The conversation then turns to one of the most anticipated bourbon releases of the year—Jacob Spears Bourbon. Named in honor of one of Kentucky's earliest distillers, the whiskey was distilled by Bourbon Hall of Famer Jim Rutledge and blended by Ashley. Matt and Mark even have the unique opportunity to taste and weigh in on two different small batch blend variations before discussing the final direction of the brand, along with a standout single barrel expression. Ashley also previews the upcoming Grand Slam Bourbon Fest, taking place August 27 at League Stadium in Huntingburg, Indiana, where bourbon and baseball come together to celebrate America's 250th Anniversary with an unforgettable day of great whiskey, great history, and great fun. And, of course, no episode of The Bourbon Life would be complete without a lineup of incredible pours. This week, the crew tastes and reviews: 2015 Four Roses Small Batch Limited Edition (a release Ashley helped blend alongside Jim Rutledge during their time at Four Roses) Two Jacob Spears Bourbon Small Batch blend variations Jacob Spears Bourbon Single Barrel Two Worlds Whiskey Alliance Whether you're interested in the art of blending, the story behind an exciting new bourbon brand, or simply enjoy hearing from one of the industry's most respected blenders, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

Is it time to let it go?Whether it's a grudge, resentment, disappointment, or a story you've been telling yourself for years, holding on can take a tremendous amount of energy. It can impact your relationships, your peace of mind, and your ability to move forward.In this episode of The Almost Daily Podcast, I explore the idea of forgiveness, letting go, and the expectations we place on both ourselves and others. We discuss why people hold on to old hurts, how our stories become reinforced over time, and why seeing our own blind spots can be one of the most challenging and rewarding parts of personal growth.This isn't a conversation about excusing bad behavior or pretending difficult experiences didn't happen. It's a conversation about the freedom that can come from releasing what no longer serves you and deciding what kind of life you want to carry forward.Topics Covered:• Is it time to let go?• The emotional cost of holding grudges• Why forgiveness can be difficult• The stories we tell ourselves• Expectations and disappointment• Seeing your own blind spots• Extending an olive branch• Taking responsibility for your part• Letting go without reconciliation• Social media and reinforced beliefs• Choosing peace over being right• The value of self-reflectionThank you for listening to The Almost Daily Podcast.Sometimes the heaviest things we carry are the stories, resentments, and disappointments we've held onto for years. Letting go doesn't change the past, but it can change what you carry into the future.

The Strangest Secret was released in 1956. Earl Nightingale’s 35-minute, six-and-a-half-thousand-word recording was one of the earliest motivational tapes. It sold more than a million copies and became the first spoken-word recording to achieve Gold Record status. The recording was released during a period of post-war economic expansion in the United States. Consumer culture was booming, and suburban home ownership was rising. The promise of upward mobility felt tangible for a growing American middle class encouraged to live a story about abundance, opportunity, and individual advancement. In this episode of The Gentle Rebel Podcast, I look at some of the ideas and assumptions running through The Strangest Secret, and how they echo themes that have become deeply embedded in self-help culture over the past century. https://youtu.be/-t_aynxdw9E What interests me is less whether Nightingale’s advice works than the story he tells about success, failure, responsibility, and human potential. It’s a format followed by generations of motivational speakers, coaches, entrepreneurs, and personal development enthusiasts. It continues to influence how many of us think about ourselves and the world today. I heard about The Strangest Secret through a video by Sean Munger titled The Tools Cult: History of the Amway Motivational Tape Scam. My attention was caught by a reference to Napoleon Hill, who inspired Nightingale when he read Think and Grow Rich in 1948. That book, as well as Nightingale’s tape, became important resources on the Amway reading list. Nightingale’s Definition of Success “When we say about 5% achieve success, we have to define success, and here's the definition. Success is the progressive realization of a worthy ideal.” This is a reasonable concept. To act in the service of bringing a worthy ideal into being provides a flexible definition that can be applied in many ways. Nightingale says he believes that success is a life lived with a specific sense of purpose and direction. So it’s confusing when he seems to undermine this by viewing success through a financial lens. He suggests that if you follow 100 men between the ages of 25 and 65, you would witness a desire for success at the start of life, but by the time they’re 65, one will be rich, four will be financially independent, five will still be working, and 54 will be broke. This underpins his position that only 5% of people are successful. So which is it? Being financially independent by age 65 or progressively realising a worthy ideal? Those things are not necessarily linked. An artist, a teacher, a carer, or a community organiser, and anyone who does something despite the lack of guaranteed financial reward. By Nightingale’s own definition, these people may well be successful. They are realising a worthy ideal. Yet his framework shifts from an existential definition of success to an economic one, where in reality, a person can only be deemed successful if they make lots of money. Self-Help Tropes Nightingale’s talk conforms with many of the self-help tropes we are becoming familiar with on this journey. The Secret “If you understand completely what I'm going to tell you from this moment on, your life will never be the same again. You will suddenly find that good luck just seems to be attracted to you. The things you want just seem to fall in line and from now on you won't have the problems, the worries, the knowing lump of anxiety that, perhaps, you have experienced before. Doubt, fear, well they'll be things of the past.” The idea of a secret runs through the history of self-help. There is always some missing piece, some hidden principle that, once understood and applied, will change everything. The details vary slightly from book to book, but the structure remains remarkably similar. The reader is invited to believe that happiness, peace, prosperity, confidence, healing, or fulfilment are all waiting on the other side of a single insight. It’s a compelling promise. Nice if true. Metaphor As Evidence Self-help authors often lean on metaphors in ways that make them seem like evidence for a position. Nightingale says, “People with goals succeed because they know where they’re going,” and compares successful people to ships sailing towards a predetermined destination. He then imagines a ship without a captain, crew, or destination and concludes that it will drift aimlessly. The comparison sounds persuasive until you stop and think about it. A ship is designed for a destination. Human beings are not. Some of the richest experiences in life emerge through experimentation, curiosity, accident, and changing direction. A ship without a crew and a destination isn’t fulfilling its literal purpose and reason for existing (built by humans as a logistical tool). A human is not the same. There are many reasons people choose not to structure their lives around the pursuit of goals. “The man who has no goal, who doesn't know where he is going and whose thoughts must therefore be thoughts of confusion and anxiety and fear and worry, becomes what he thinks about. His life becomes one of frustration, fear, anxiety and worry and if he thinks about nothing, he becomes nothing.” I would suggest that many successful people function effectively without the kind of goals Nightingale advocates. And people who have focused so obsessively on a single drive that they’ve lost important things like their health, relationships, and meaningful hobbies. Cherry-Picked Quotes Like many self-help authors, Nightingale draws on the authority of famous thinkers. One example is his quotation of Marcus Aurelius: “a man’s life is what his thoughts make of it.” I couldn’t find this in any of the translations of Meditations I checked, suggesting it is more likely a paraphrase than a direct quotation. The same pattern appears in his use of William James. Nightingale focuses on James’s claim that if you wish to be rich, learned, or good, you can become those things. “If you only care enough for a result, you will almost certainly ascertain it. If you wish to be rich, you will be rich. If you wish to be learned, you will be learned. If you wish to be good, you will good. Only you must then really wish these things and wish them exclusively and not wish at the same time a hundred other compatible things just as strongly.” To achieve something extraordinary requires excluding countless other possibilities. What happens when wealth becomes the exclusive organising principle of a life? What gets pushed aside? Relationships? Leisure? Health? Community? James seems at least as interested in that question as he is in achievement itself. Nightingale doesn’t acknowledge this. The Strangest Quote of Them All Perhaps the most confusing quote he uses is from George Bernard Shaw, who said, “People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want and if they can't find them, make them.” It sounds like Shaw was spouting a self-help slogan. But this sounded strange to me because Shaw was a committed socialist and a leading member of the Fabian Society. He spent much of his life criticising the idea that individuals simply rise or fall according to personal merit. He repeatedly explored how economic and social structures shape people’s lives in his plays. Throughout his work, Shaw explored the relationship between individual agency and the social conditions people inherit. So where did this quote come from? It is actually a line spoken by the character Vivie Warren in Mrs Warren’s Profession, not by Shaw directly. As with any playwright, author, or comedian, we need to be careful about treating a character’s words as the artist’s personal philosophy. Charles Dickens (Fagin – Oliver Twist) The Obligatory Call To Action (and disclaimer) Like any good self-help talk, Nightingale finishes with a challenge. Write down what you want more than anything else. Carry it with you. Look at it every day. Maintain a positive outlook and give more than you’ve ever given before. The framework handles failure with a familiar disclaimer. If the method works, it gets the credit. If it doesn’t work, responsibility falls back on the individual. You didn’t believe enough, weren’t committed enough, lost focus, or didn’t give what was required. This secret is neither particularly strange nor surprising. It is a derivative of Napoleon Hill. In fact, it’s almost identical to what he wrote in Think and Grow Rich. There is always another level of effort required and another reason success remains just beyond reach. The possibility that the promise itself might be flawed rarely enters the conversation. My Enduring Question There is a gap between the question Nightingale starts with and the answer he arrives at. As a child growing up in poverty, he wanted to understand why some people prospered while others struggled. It’s an interesting question to explore. It opens up the potential to probe into themes of opportunity, power, ownership, luck, and the socio-economic landscape of society itself. Yet by the end of The Strangest Secret, that complexity has been replaced by a one-dimensional explanation and cure. Inequality is a direct product of our thoughts, goals, and willingness to work in the service of our personal dream. This move has become so familiar within self-help culture that it can be difficult to notice. Social questions become personal. Structural problems are solved by mindset. Inequality becomes a failure of ambition, and burnout becomes a failure of attitude. More than seventy years after The Strangest Secret was released, people are still being sold variations of the same promise.

This week, the AI industry continues its speedrun toward becoming the tech equivalent of a late-stage casino. Elon Musk insists reports of aid-cut-related deaths don't exist despite mountains of evidence, SpaceX stock slides far enough to knock him out of the trillionaire club, and a startup is literally suing the U.S. government because Anthropic's Fable 5 model got turned off after three whole days of availability. Once again, we revisit the First Commandment of Grumpy Old Geeks: never build your company on someone else's platform.Meanwhile, gas stations are being accused of using AI to coordinate prices, corporations are discovering that AI tokens cost actual money, and a Microsoft researcher used goats in Age of Empires II to demonstrate that maybe, just maybe, people are projecting way too much intelligence onto chatbots. The goats emerge with their reputations intact. The AI industry, less so.The workforce bloodbath rolls on as Oracle quietly sheds 21,000 employees while blaming AI, Norway bans generative AI for elementary school students after discovering that children should probably learn to read before outsourcing their homework to robots, and the FCC flirts with rules that could effectively kill anonymous burner phones in the name of fighting scams. Over at Meta, an employee surveillance program accidentally exposed sensitive data to the entire company because of course it did, while Zuckerberg continues his relentless quest to strap cameras to everyone's face and call it progress. Add in YouTube settling another social-media-harm case, Chrome finally kneecapping traditional ad blockers, and prediction markets spreading across tech like mold in a college apartment, and it's becoming increasingly clear that every bad idea eventually gets funded.In transportation news, autonomous vehicles continue demonstrating that "mostly works" is not a reassuring phrase when attached to two tons of moving metal. A Tesla on Autopilot crashes into a home and kills a grandmother, Rivian faces lawsuits over self-driving promises its hardware allegedly can't fulfill, and Waymo recalls thousands of robotaxis after they developed an unfortunate habit of driving into closed freeway construction zones. Elsewhere, Elon and Bezos are eyeing billions in broadband subsidies, Polymarket is accused of paying influencers to fake betting videos and climate data archivists are preserving public information from political interference.Media recommendations include The Mandalorian, Silo, Strange New Worlds, Dungeon Crawler Carl, and a reminder that Firefox may soon be the last refuge for people who enjoy both the internet and ad blockers. Some weeks the future feels exciting.

Rob and Rizgod also break down key moves—like surviving by social awareness after the Kyle medevac, the infamous Mr. Beast coin flip that turned Tribal Council on its head, and the strategic calculus behind blindsides and idol plays. The interview takes a personal turn as Rizgod explains how he processed his jury vote, his take on endgame strategies, and what it's like to be seen as both a superfine strategist and a target. – Rizgod's approach to back-to-back seasons and mentally resetting between games – Social slip-ups and adaptation after falling out of favor with early allies – The formation of the Cirie-Ozzy-Rizgod alliance—a modern echo of old-school strategy – Wildcard moments like the Mr. Beast advantage and the shifting post-merge landscape – Candid discussion about final tribal council, jury perceptions, and Rizgod's vision for his Survivor future As Rob and Rizgod analyze the highs and lows of Survivor 50, they ask: What does it really take to play—and win—against a cast of legends?

https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/ins.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM732_FINAL.mp3   The striving set point is the pattern I see most often in high-performing business owners — and it’s one of the most frustrating to live with, because from the outside it looks like everything is working. You work harder than anyone you know. You implement new strategies and push your team. And you keep hitting the same ceiling. In this episode, Steph Tuss and I break down why effort alone can’t break through a set point, where the striving pattern comes from, and what it actually costs you. This is Part 4 of the Financial Setpoint Series. Episode 729 introduces the full framework and the free Psychological Set Point Analyzer. Episodes 730 and 731 cover the scarcity and survival set points. If you’re new to the series, start there. Striving Set Point: The Belief That Struggle Equals WorthinessAt the core of the striving set point is a belief that most people have never consciously examined: if it isn’t hard, I don’t deserve it. The effort you put in becomes the measure of your self-worth — not the result. Consciously, you hate the struggle. You say you want more time, more freedom, more ease. But your inner operating system has tied those things together so tightly that when something actually becomes easy, it doesn’t feel earned. It feels suspicious. This pattern almost always originates in families where love and security had to be earned through achievement. The straight-A student. The child who held the family together. The one whose role was to be the responsible one, the good one, the one who had it handled. You strived for approval as a kid — and even when you got it, it was never quite enough. So you kept going. And now, decades later, the pattern is still running. The business has just become the new arena. Striving Set Point: Three Ways It Shows Up and What It Costs YouThe first place the striving set point shows up is the income ceiling. You implement a new strategy, see a short burst of growth, and come right back to the same number. You pivot, hire, and add a new offer. The ceiling stays. That’s because the ceiling isn’t about your tactics — it’s about your set point. Until the internal thermostat is reprogrammed, the external results keep resetting. The second is what Steph and I call throwing a hand grenade into the business. When things are actually going well — when the struggle lifts — strivers don’t trust it. If something comes easily, it doesn’t feel real. So they unconsciously create new chaos: a team conflict, a strategic pivot, a major decision that blows up what was working. It feels like control. But it’s the set point protecting its territory. The third is comparisonitis. You watch someone else achieve what looks like comparable results with half your effort, and something in you goes sideways. The resentment builds, then the stress, then the burnout. And through all of it, the income ceiling holds — because the ceiling was never about how hard you worked. It was always about what you believe you deserve. The physical cost of this set point is significant. Steph noted in this episode that strivers tend to accumulate more health issues than any other type — the body simply isn’t built for the level of sustained pressure this pattern demands. Slowing Down Is the Fastest Way ThroughOne of the more counterintuitive insights from this episode is that strivers often need to slow down to move faster. The fly beating itself against the glass window — a metaphor from Price Pritchett’s You² — doesn’t need to work harder. It needs to pull back six inches and see that the door is right there. The answer has been available the whole time. The set point just makes it impossible to see. Awareness is the first step, but as Steph and I have both said throughout this series, awareness alone doesn’t change anything. You need new behaviors. The free Psychological Set Point Analyzer at lifeisnowinc.com/setpoint will identify whether the striving set point is your primary pattern and give you a seven-day plan to begin reprogramming it. For deeper work, Steph and I are hosting The Elite Mind Intensive on August 18th and 19th in Charlotte, North Carolina — two days focused entirely on set point transformation. Details and tickets are at lifeisnowinc.com/clarity. Episode 733, the final episode in this series, covers the Emerging Success Set Point — what it looks like when you’re doing the work and starting to break through. Join us. Episode 624 – The Starting Point is Desire Episode 372 – I Choose How I Feel Episode 204 – Burnout, Balance & B.S. YOU'VE LEARNED THE STRATEGIES… SO WHY DOES YOUR REVENUE STILL CONTINUE TO PLATEAU?Here’s what I know about most business owners: They’re working hard, doing the right things, and still hitting the same income ceiling year after year. That ceiling has a name — it’s your Financial Set Point. It’s the unconscious limit you’ve placed on what you believe you can earn, and until you see it clearly, it runs the show no matter what strategies you put in place.That’s what we work on at my upcoming Business Intensive in August.  Over two days, I'll help you identify your financial set point, understand why it’s there, and break through it so you can finally earn what you want without the constant struggle and hustle that’s been getting you nowhere.If that sounds like exactly what’s been missing, you don’t want to sit this one out.

SUMMARY In this episode of Whistlekick Martial Arts Radio, Jeremy and Andrew explore the question of what defines a real martial artist. They discuss the importance of personal definitions, the role of discipline and character, the significance of rank, and the impact of social media on perceptions of martial arts. The conversation emphasizes that being a martial artist encompasses more than just combat skills, highlighting the importance of personal development and the need for a supportive community.   TAKEAWAYS Training makes us better and can improve lives. The definition of martial arts varies for everyone. Martial arts is not solely about fighting. Discipline and character are key components of martial arts. Rank signals progress but does not define character. Social media has distorted perceptions of martial arts. Real martial artists should uplift others, not tear them down. Personal definitions of martial arts are essential. Engagement in training is what makes a martial artist. Criticism of others often stems from personal insecurities.   Join our EXCLUSIVE newsletter to get notified of each episode as it comes out! Subscribe — whistlekick Martial Arts Radio

In this Farm4Fun episode, the crew is joined by North Dakota farmer and social media creator Beet Farmin' Mitch, along with Arts Way's Jim Cronk, for a deep dive into the world of sugar beet production. Mitch shares the story of his family's six-generation farming operation in the Red River Valley, where they grow sugar beets, wheat, corn, soybeans, sunflowers, and edible beans. He explains how sugar beets are planted, managed, harvested, stored, and ultimately processed into the table sugar Americans use every day. The conversation covers: The history of Mitch's family farm dating back to an 1800s wagon train from Iowa to North Dakota What makes sugar beets different from traditional row crops How sugar beet seed is produced and planted Disease, insect, and fertility management in sugar beet production The unique harvest process involving defoliators, lifters, and pilers Why sugar beet harvest becomes a 24-hour operation How sugar beets are stored through North Dakota winters The role of American Crystal Sugar Cooperative Sugar beet pricing, quotas, and marketing Why sugar policy matters to American farmers The difference between beet sugar and cane sugar The challenges facing today's sugar industry Social media, agriculture advocacy, and telling agriculture's story Listeners will also hear about the specialized equipment used during harvest, including Arts Way sugar beet harvesters and defoliators, along with some entertaining stories about sugar beet crews, harvest culture, and life in the Red River Valley. Whether you're a farmer, consumer, or simply curious about where sugar comes from, this episode delivers a fun and educational look at one of agriculture's most misunderstood crops. Most importantly, Mitch shares how faith, family, and farming continue to guide both his operation and his mission to educate consumers about modern agriculture. Want Farm4Profit Merch?

For more than a year, alcohol sales in the on-premise (restaurants, bars, stadiums, and hotels) have outperformed sales in the off-premise (grocery, convenience, and liquor stores). On the surface, this trend contradicts many of our explanations for the industry's struggles. If people are broke, why are they spending money in the channel where alcohol costs the most? If people are spending more time alone, why are they drinking in venues driven by socialization? A mystery this big requires more intellectual firepower than RaboResearch alone can provide. So we invited two PhDs and an economist on the show to help us figure it out. Our guests: Bart Watson, President & CEO, Brewers Association Andrew Heritage, Chief Economist, Beer Institute Lester Jones, Chief Economist, National Beer Wholesalers Association Relevant time stamps:  Why are on-premise sales outperforming off-premise sales? Round 1: 7:42 – The K-shaped economy is widening the gap between on-premise and off-premise sales: Middle/lower-income consumers feel squeezed and cut back more during at-home (off-premise) occasions, while protecting meaningful social occasions (on-premise). Higher-income consumers continue spending, widening the gap. 16:04 – Rising wealth is leading to an overall increase in on-premise spending: The US is getting richer over time; historically that drives more spending "away from home." As incomes rise, consumers shift toward experiences like bars/restaurants. 24:01 – Post-Covid socialization is normalizing: People want to reconnect after Covid. Younger consumers especially over-index in out-of-home alcohol spend, supporting on-premise demand through social experiences. 32:54 – Health and wellness trends are driving people to cut back on banal, at-home occasions: Consumers drink less overall, especially at home, but keep social drinking occasions. Alcohol becomes more "occasion-based," benefiting on-premise while hurting off-premise volumes. 42:02 – Inflation in the on-premise is massively outpacing off-premise: On-premise prices are rising faster than off-premise. Even if behavior doesn't change much, higher pricing inflates on-premise performance in dollar terms. Round 2:  45:18 – Travel and experiences are rebounding: Increased travel drives on-premise consumption (restaurants, bars, concessions). Social and vacation contexts strengthen on-premise relative to at-home drinking. 47:24 – The on-premise has more innovation, driving increases in productivity: Restaurants and bars have innovated (tech, formats, efficiency) post-Covid, improving service and experience. Better venues lead to stronger performance versus relatively static off-premise retail. 52:10 – There are more women in the workforce: More women in the workforce = more income + stronger social consumption patterns. Women may drink less, but have more money to spend per serving, suggesting they may be a driver of on-premise strength. 57:48 – Staying at home is more stimulating than it used to be: Consumers don't have to drink because they're bored. Competing activities (cannabis, online gaming, etc.) replace at-home drinking occasions – especially for younger males – more than on-premise drinking occasions. 1:03:02 – Several final factors may also be contributing to the on-premise performance gap: With the last pick of the draft, Bourcard mops up some of the final potential factors behind the on-premise performance gap, including young adults living with their parents, the decline of underage drinking, and GLP-1 drugs reducing the desire for casual drinking while leaving social occasions intact.

In the U.K., the government developed a group tasked with “dreaming up psychological tricks to alter our behaviour” without the people being aware of it. The Behavioural Insights Team, known unofficially as the “Nudge Unit”, set the narrative for the COVID-19 fiasco. They were the team behind the infamous slogan, “Stay Home, Protect the NHS, Save Lives”, which was astroturfed into existence at the behest of 10 Downing. Thirty years earlier, Hollywood also “nudged” a generation of people to consume endlessly, seek disposable relationships, and build nothing during their time on Earth. The apathy of the Seinfeld characters towards premarital commitments prepped a generation to become a very comfortable, lonely, and sterile civilization. Social engineers seeking to lower population rates have continued to use television as a tool to adjust cultural norms and change behaviors without anyone noticing.---Macroaggressionswww.Macroaggressions.ioMerch StoreLink Tree Video ChannelsRumble | YouTube | BrighteonActivist PostNewsletter Sign UpAudiobooksHypocrazyThe Octopus of Global ControlSupport Our SponsorsReplace Your Mortgage: www.WipeOutYourMortgageNow.comGround Luxe Grounding MatsC60 Power | Promo Code: MACROChemical Free Body | Promo Code: MACROWise Wolf Gold & SilverLegalShield: www.DontGetPushedAround.comChristian Yordanov's Health ProgramThe Dollar VigilanteNesa's Hemp | Promo Code: MACROAugason Farms

In this week's mini episode, Madigan will discuss what is known about the female demonstrator intentionally hit by a car outside of the Delaney Hall Detention Center, Donald Trump's intentions to dismantle the Department of Education (and what that would mean for students), as well as how a bunch of algae swimming in the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool is fighting back against the Trump administration.

Starting June 28, 2026, Walt Disney World is implementing major changes to transportation leaving Disney Springs. Buses and Sassagoula River Cruise boats to the resorts now require proof of a valid hotel stay, dining reservation, or Enchanting Extras booking. Social media has erupted with complaints, claims that resort hopping is dead, and accusations of Disney being greedy.But what's really happening? In this episode, we break down exactly who this change affects (and who it doesn't), how the verification process works, and why Disney is cracking down now.Going deeper, we'll explore how the last 10+ years — especially the COVID-era population boom, remote work migration to Central Florida, and the explosion of Annual Passholders and locals — have fundamentally changed how people use the resorts and transportation system. What started as occasional “beignet runs” or convenient loopholes has scaled into real capacity problems for paying resort guests. Is this the end of the magic for locals and passholders, or a necessary step to protect the experience for guests paying hundreds per night?If you love thoughtful Disney discussion that goes beyond the headlines, this episode is for you. I'll share personal stories from living minutes from the parks and offer a balanced perspective on why prioritizing resort guests might actually be the right move.

Have you hired people who look great on paper only to later discover the skills do not actually transfer? Today's featured guest built her agency deliberately, one client at a time, carrying systems from her years at L'Oréal before anyone told her those systems would matter. She talks about how she structured accountability on her team from the beginning, how she filters out candidates who cannot think without AI holding their hand, and why she stopped caring about working with the sexiest beauty brands and started caring about working with the right ones. Mimi Banks is the founder and CEO of MB Social, a New York-based social media agency specializing in beauty. She spent years at L'Oréal, where she was among the first people to build social media infrastructure at the company, then moved to a Paris-based startup before eventually launching MB Social. Her team of 25 now handles social strategy, community management, and content for beauty brands across the market. In this episode, we'll discuss: Starting off with a vision on accountable vs responsible Can your team do 80% of what you do? Then you're set Why she stopped chasing the wrong clients Subscribe Apple | Spotify | iHeart Radio Sponsors and Resources E2M Solutions: Today's episode of the Smart Agency Masterclass is sponsored by E2M Solutions, a web design and development agency that has provided white-label services for the past 10 years to agencies all over the world.

Building From the Beginning with Systems, Not Just Instinct Mimi came into agency ownership with something most founders spend years trying to build after the fact: a working model for how things should get done. Her time creating social media infrastructure at L'Oréal gave her a process orientation before she had a team to apply it to. When she started bringing people on at MB Social, the systems came with her. The ways of working, the documentation, the clarity around who was responsible versus who was accountable: those were in place because she had already built them once somewhere else. For instance, she started off with clarity on the distinction between responsible and accountable. She positioned herself as accountable from day one while making sure there was always a specific person responsible for each piece of work. That structure kept her from becoming the default executor on everything, which is the trap most founders walk into when they hire without clarifying ownership. The 80 Percent Standard That Actually Frees You Mimi is far enough along in her evolution that she no longer reviews most of what her team produces. She trusts the people leading each department to make judgment calls without routing them upward. Getting there required learning to live with the gap between what she would do and what her team does, and deciding that gap was acceptable. This is a framing every mastermind member knows: if your team does 80 percent of what you would do, that is good enough. Because you cannot do a hundred percent of everything, and the cost of trying is that you stay in the operator role indefinitely. The coaching method Mimi asks her leadership team to apply is asking questions. Similar to the Mastermind's 1-3-1 method, it's basically about asking questions that will help your team come up with options they have already considered, which leads to them coming up with the solution on their own. Do that enough times and the team stops treating the founder as the answer key. Hiring for Beauty When Everyone Says They Know Social The challenge Mimi keeps running into in hiring is the gap between what candidates say they can do and what the work actually requires. Social media for enterprise beauty brands is not the same skill as posting on a personal Instagram. The strategy is more complex, the client demands are higher, and the responsiveness required is relentless. Candidates do not always know that going in, and some of them figure it out in ways that are expensive to the team. The hiring process she built with Hireflex added a video interview layer with no retry option that filters for candidates willing to do the uncomfortable thing even when it is not required. From there she takes the transcripts, runs them through AI against a scoring rubric tied to the job description, and uses that data alongside her own read to make decisions. What she is testing for is the ability to think, not just to produce a clean output with AI assistance. The perfect presentation that does not match the resume tells her nothing useful. The candidate who works through a problem imperfectly, in their own words, tells her a great deal. Designing the Agency Around the Clients You Actually Want Mimi stopped chasing the sexiest beauty brands. Not because she cannot get them, but because sexy and right are not the same thing. Payment terms that stretch to 120 days, clients who treat the team poorly, brands that want work done yesterday and deliver assets a month late: those are not problems that prestige solves. She now runs the agency with a no bullshit attitude and is quick to address when a client's behavior affects her team. That boundary is what makes it possible to keep the team she has built. The version of client selectivity that actually holds is based on being clear enough on what you are building that you can recognize a client who does not fit before the contract is signed. After all, client relationships are like dating: you have to see if you get along before you commit, because the worst version of a client relationship looks a lot like a bad marriage, and the damage it does to a team is not undone when the contract ends.

Murray N. Rothbard was a system builder in the mode of Ludwig von Mises, Frank H. Knight, and F. A. Hayek. Social, economic, and political problems are intertwined and complex and require a grand theory to address them. For Rothbard, the unifying theme of social theory was liberty.Original article in The Misesian: https://mises.org/misesian/murray-n-rothbard-toward-science-liberty

AI is changing how leaders think, decide, and work with their teams. But as John Cutler points out in this conversation, the real shift is not simply about faster answers or more productivity. It is about becoming more aware of the judgment systems we already use, often without noticing.In this episode of the Unlearn Podcast, I'm joined again by John Cutler, product thinker, systems explorer, and Head of Product at Dotwork. We explore how AI can help leaders expose their thinking, pressure test decisions, and build stronger team judgment, while also making it easier to accelerate poor habits, shallow work, and false confidence.John shares practical examples from product prioritization, survey design, objection handling, and team collaboration to show where AI can genuinely improve decision quality. We also get into the tradeoffs: why AI can make work feel like “hard mode,” why downtime still matters, and why intentionality is becoming one of the most important leadership skills in this moment.Key TakeawaysAI exposes how leaders make decisions: AI tends to amplify the decision system already there. When a leader's thinking is clear, AI can help make it visible and reusable; when it is vague, AI can make that vagueness move faster.Judgment is built differently depending on the situation: John explains that some judgment comes from repetition and tacit pattern recognition, while other judgment develops through coaching, discussion, and working alongside people with more experience.AI can help turn intuition into something teams can use: John's example of documenting his product prioritization heuristic shows how AI can help make internal judgment concrete. The value comes from helping others understand why certain decisions matter, not just what the decision is.Better AI use starts with knowing what you know: John contrasts product prioritization, where he has deep experience, with survey design, where he knows there is established expertise to draw from. The skill is recognizing whether AI should extend your own judgment or help you borrow from a domain expert.Teams using AI well can raise decision quality: Barry shares how AI can help teams pressure test assumptions, run scenarios, and ask disconfirming questions without losing momentum. The real advantage comes when AI strengthens collaboration rather than replacing it.AI can also accelerate bad instincts: John warns that AI can make poor thinking look polished. A team can paste AI onto an existing process and call it transformation without changing how decisions are actually made.Intentionality matters more than productivity: AI can reduce friction, but it can also remove the pauses where judgment forms. Leaders need to design space for reflection, not just optimize for more output.Additional InsightsIndividual metacognition: This is understanding how you think and make decisions. John's examples show that leaders get more value from AI when they can first make their own judgment system visible.Social metacognition: This is understanding that other people think, perceive, and engage differently. AI becomes more useful when it supports the conversation between people instead of flattening everyone into the same process.Computational metacognition: This is understanding what LLMs are good at, where they fail, and how to work with them responsibly. John argues that leaders need this skill so they know when to trust AI, when to challenge it, and when to bring in human expertise.Objection handling as a repeatable system: John's team did not ask AI to create a generic sales guide. They role-played real objections, captured the discussion, compared their responses against best practices, and turned that into a system that could review future calls.The deeper lesson: AI becomes more useful when it is connected to real work, real context, and a team's actual judgment. Without that grounding, it risks creating more output without improving the quality of decisions.Episode Highlights00:00 – Episode RecapJohn Cutler opens with a story about how judgment often comes from repetition and tacit signals, not neat frameworks. The episode explores what happens when AI starts making those hidden decision systems visible.02:02 – Guest Introduction: John CutlerBarry welcomes back John Cutler, product thinker, systems explorer, and Head of Product at Dotwork, for a conversation about judgment, decision making, and collaboration in the age of AI.04:59 – How Judgment Gets BuiltJohn explains that judgment develops differently depending on the context: through individual practice, repeated exposure, mentorship, team discussion, and comparison against examples of quality.08:58 – Making Prioritization Thinking VisibleJohn shares how he used AI to document his own scoring heuristic for product prioritization, giving a teammate deeper insight into why certain ideas mattered more than others.12:11 – Knowing When to Borrow ExpertiseUsing survey design as an example, John explains how AI can help access existing expert knowledge when you are not the expert yourself. The key is being honest about the limits of your own judgment.13:56 – From Answers to Better QuestionsBarry reflects on the shift from using AI to get answers toward using it to challenge thinking, improve decisions, and bring stronger questions to colleagues.18:04 – Why Better Surveys Lead to Better DecisionsJohn explains how improving a survey from average to strong can materially change the quality of insight a team gets back, which then affects the quality of product decisions.23:04 – Teams, AI, and Decision AdvantageBarry shares how AI can help teams maintain momentum during ideation by quickly pressure testing scenarios, asking disconfirming questions, and bringing outside information into the room.27:48 – Turning Objection Handling into a SystemJohn describes how his team recorded a live objection-handling exercise, analyzed it against best practices, and turned the team's collective knowledge into a reusable system.31:32 – The Three Forms of MetacognitionJohn introduces individual, social, and computational metacognition as three skills leaders need to work effectively with AI and with each other.35:19 – AI Exposes Leadership SystemsBarry and John discuss why AI can feel uncomfortable for leaders: it reveals whether there is a real decision-making system underneath the confidence.37:34 – When AI Makes Every Decision Feel HardJohn raises an important limitation: AI can remove small pauses in the workday, leaving people constantly operating at high cognitive load.41:58 – Productivity Fatigue and Agent OverloadBarry and John discuss the temptation to run too many AI-assisted tasks at once, and why that can create more noise rather than better outcomes.44:23 – Designing Time to ThinkBarry shares how he intentionally creates time for walking, exercise, and reflection to avoid over-optimizing for fast, reactive decisions.46:38 – Intentionality Over Process TheaterJohn explains why intentionality is different from rigid process. The opportunity is to design better systems without flattening the richness of how teams actually work.50:11 – Closing ReflectionsBarry wraps the conversation by reflecting on the opportunity for leaders to use AI not just to move faster, but to become more aware of how they think, decide, and scale judgment across teams.Useful ResourcesDotwork – John Cutler's work focuses on helping teams and organizations better understand how work, decisions, and systems connect.Artificial Organizations – Barry references the book and the CSTA loop as part of his work on AI, decision making, and organizational performance.Daniel Kahneman's System 1 and System 2 Thinking – Referenced in the discussion on snap decisions, deeper thinking, and productivity fatigue.Pugh Analysis – John mentions this as an example of a prioritization approach originally intended to help experts independently rate options and then discuss differences in judgment.Follow the HostLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/barryoreillyPersonal site:

AI is a transformational technology impacting education, business, law, and productivity. The U.S. and China are in a high-stakes race to dominate AI development with the U.S. slightly ahead (estimated months, not years). 1.
