A confrontation with the Hexcloak Commander, whose ominous air suggests dire motives. A conversation with the living god of metal, whose curious mind pries into their own. A conflict with an ancient draconic mole, whose thunderous anger threatens the city of chains. Antistrophe Landrace, Bronte Adelvys, and Caoimhe Wake have faced all of this and more during their stay in Cenn. And yet, for now, they've remained to help the city—now blocked off from the rest of the world by a massive sphere of pure iron—as it rebuilds from the dragon's earth-shaking attack. A city as great as Cenn can recover, but it needs more than time. People need healing. Structures need mending. Fearful spirits need to be calmed. But mysteries abound. Where is Kley Kaina? What is the sourcerot? How are the hexcloaks involved? Lost, they turn to a pair of surprising allies. Johnny Cakes and Jimmy Cones. Mango Chili Chutney. Pineapple Basil. Matcha Sesame Brittle. Mango Habanero. Lavender Lemonade. Coconut Lime Sorbet. Lemon Basil Sorbet. Beetroot Ginger Swirl. These are the leading flavors of Cakes and Cones Ice Cream this year. Sold and delivered across Cenn by the Dessert Brothers' team of noble White Caps, whose confectionary comportment gives them access to the lowest of gutters and the highest halls of power. Perhaps these ice cream boys will have the perspective that team ABC needs to crack their investigation wide open. Or, perhaps, the clue is closer than that, mixed in with the dairy and the fruit and the flavor extract and the sugar, buried in the tasty, tasty cream itself. This week on Perpetua: In Too Deep 01 Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.055] Some Feedback [Page 25 of 27] Doom_Tree_Anne What do you think every party member's favorite flavor of Ice Cream is? Personally, I think Veile likes Mango Chili Chutney and Elena likes Mango Habanero. For obvious reasons. CarlsJr The best flavor is chocolate. Doom_Tree_Anne But chocolate isn't on the list of available flavors from the Desert Bros., which is actually FASCINATING because of the lore implications. It suggests one of two things is true: Either the people of Cenn (or perhaps the Elevana League, or even the whole Eastern Continent) don't have a taste for it (which is hard to believe!), OR they don't have access to the cacao plant, which would mean no chocolate. In fact, the inclusion of TWO mango flavors might suggest that the flora of Perpetua is more closely tied to that of the Indian Subcontinent and the rest of Southeast Asia. I visited my grandmother in Indonesia when I was on summer break between high school and college, and she had a HUGE mango tree in her back yard! XxZelgadyskXx That's really cool Anne, but remember, Elena did mention chocolate in the marshmallow scene! :3 Anyway, I think Antistrophe probably likes the Matcha one. I haven't had it, but I looked it up and it looks green and healthy, and he seems like someone who takes care of his body in that way. And I think Jonathan would do the Pineapple Basil. I don't know why, I just do. TheUnforgivenIII Sorry Doomtree, we don't really have a good answer for this. Maybe if Nei actually kept this FAQ updated like it was SUPPOSED TO BE then we'd know what all the flavors do and what the the best ones are for each character. TheDiamondRanger I read in a preview that all the flavors get randomized when you start the game, so that doesn't make sense. Alukard83 I think that's only for Nicky's abilities. Anyway, Bronte likes the most expensive flavor for sure. And I think Unforgiven doesn't like getting any dessert at all because he's always so rude!

The Tenpenny Files – Marketed as safe and empowering, a widely used birth control injection conceals a troubling history of secrecy, influence, and harm. This powerful investigation exposes how women are steered into medical decisions without full consent, while long-term health consequences are dismissed, ignored, or misdiagnosed by institutions designed to protect them...
Kate Assaraf tried every plastic-free shampoo bar on the market. They sat in her shower like, and I'm quoting here, "tombstones." Failed products. Dead ends. So she decided to make her own. Without Instagram ads. Without Amazon. Without any of the things you're supposed to need to build a business. Today on our program, we follow Kate's journey from beauty industry veteran to the woman who said no to everything, and built a million-dollar company anyway.In this episode, we explore how Kate sold 250,000 shampoo bars in 4 years while refusing Meta ads, Amazon listings, and influencer partnerships. When her contract manufacturer went under, she didn't find a new one—she built her own factory and hired the displaced workers. Now with 400+ retail partners and 7-figure revenue, Kate proves that sometimes the best growth strategy is saying no to growth hacks.GUEST BIOKate Assaraf is the founder of DIP Haircare, a plastic-free beauty brand that's redefined sustainable haircare without compromising performance. With 20 years in the beauty industry, Kate launched DIP from her kitchen table in October 2021 after discovering that existing eco-friendly alternatives failed to deliver. Her shampoo and conditioner bars compete directly with luxury salon brands while lasting up to a year. By refusing traditional DTC tactics and focusing on local retail partnerships, she's built a 7-figure business that champions American manufacturing and community-first commerce.SPONSORSSwym - Wishlists, Back in Stock alerts, & moregetswym.com/kurtCleverific - Smart order editing for Shopifycleverific.comZipify - Build high-converting sales funnelszipify.com/KURTLINKSDIP Haircare: https://dipalready.com/Find DIP in stores: https://dipalready.com/pages/stockistsKate on Instagram: @kateassarafWORK WITH KURTApply for Shopify Helpethercycle.com/applySee Our Resultsethercycle.com/workFree Newsletterkurtelster.comThe Unofficial Shopify Podcast is hosted by Kurt Elster and explores the stories behind successful Shopify stores.

Code MGO15 -Swampfox https://www.swampfoxoptics.com/shop-all-bfcm25 Dear WLS NightWasher Tx - I was looking for a holsters for my FNS-9 long slide with a griffin ez-lock comp on it. And I found this holster company that will make any custom holster you want. They do something that if have not seen before in adding leather to the inside for a smooth draw. I love the fact that they will make a custom holster for non stock guns, because none of my pistols are the stock setup. Like my S&W Shield 45 with a threaded barrel, ez lock comp, and a red dot.Sense this is supposed to be a question, what do you all think of holsters with leather lined inside, and not I don't care about Aaron's thoughts, so that question is for everyone else. www.giholsters.com/product-p/hst1490.htm Roger B - So I have a CZ BREN 2 and I was wondering if yall have come across a 3D printed lower that accepts standard AR parts? I know that HAGA defense makes them but they are $450. The lower on the BREN isn't the serialized part so that's not the problem and it's polymer anyways so I was thinking a 3D printed one should work just fine. Thanks for the help. Lance D - Is Cloud Defensive going the same route as BRC? I ordered a light that was in stock on August 1st 2025. It is now almost October 1st with no light in hand. All they've said is, “Due to a leaked coupon code, we are trying to catch up on orders.” I call BS! If an item was in stock, it shouldn't take 2+ months to ship! Never again will I purchase one of there products! Mind you this was off of their actual website Mike H - Planning an sbr build around 8"" for when the tax goes to $0, debating between a 9mm (probably a mat9k or sp9a3), a brn-180 gen3 in .300blk, but also thinking other calibers like 10mm, 45, and willing to consider other options. Not wanting direct blowback but roller delayed is great, small overall package preferred. P.S. Don't make too much fun of Aaron's small package, it's why he grabs other peoples' packages Desert D Deagleton - Does the cast consider the Ruger Blackhawk to be a cowboy gun? It's quite different from a Colt. Adjacent question, were there aftermarket adjustable sights for Colt SAAs or the competition back in the day? Perhaps Lyman made something in the 20s or something. I really like having real sights on a revolver cause of my garbage vision. Are there any other SAA clones that have taller adjustable sights but look less modern like the Blackhawks do? Warren Peace - Youz guyz, Do you prefer a fixed blade or folder for every day/pocket carry? Thank you for your wise counsel, magic 8 ball, Severely, Warren Peace Nate L - Is it just me, or does that deal bro jiggle get stuck in your head as well? I find myself randomly humming it or singing it sometimes... Jeremy's Bitch - Do you guys have any fixed blade knives mounted to plate carriers or battle belts? If so, which ones? What is your go to choice for everyday pocket knifes? Do you ever carry a knife for self defense if you're ever “not carrying” in any places like banks or schools?

What's the secret to making a great event come together? Today I'm chatting with my friend and event co-host Anita Guerini. Together, we hosted The Pink Skirt Project event in 2025 with over 300 women in attendance. It was a magnetic experience that changed lives, and we can't wait to do it again.

In this episode, you will learn about: Why we decided to go big with our first event, and how it paid off. What actually made our event a sold-out success.

The detailed planning process behind putting a first-time event together. What the energy of the room was like that morning and what it meant to me.

Have you ever felt like you're giving your gifts away for free because you love what you do but deep down, you know something's out of energetic balance? Maybe you've built your business around what feels safe or familiar, while the work that actually lights you up feels “too risky” to sell.

Gorgeous humans!This week I'm having the MOST delicious chat with my mate Jana Kingsford — author of Big Dreams (with eight more books in the works!) and the creator of the Beliefetics Method.Jana's one of those humans who actually DID the thing most people dream about but never do. She was stuck in the morning school run traffic, feeling like she couldn't do another 15 years of this… and went home and asked her husband if they could sell the house, buy a caravan, homeschool the kids and travel Australia full-time.His response? "I'm keen."That was the beginning of four laps of Australia, homeschooling three kids on the road, live streaming from cafe corners and literal trees, and building a million-dollar business from a caravan that didn't even have a toilet or shower!!!We'll cover:✨ The exact moment Jana knew her life had to change (driving home from school drop-off, crying kid, morning traffic, the works)✨ The reality of selling everything in 3 months and hitting the road✨ Homeschooling truth bombs: from distance ed panic to shutting the laptop because we're literally here✨ Why both her daughters are now thriving at uni after years of unschooling✨ Her 13-year-old son who taught himself everything from hyperfixations (unschooling magic!)✨ The morning routine that made it possible✨ How that one belief shift took her from $1K to $11K months in 5 months (and that was over 10 years ago!)✨ Why manifesting "big dreams you can't buy" is completely different to manifesting parking spots ✨ The seven stages of manifesting and why advice that works in stage one will sabotage you in stage sevenThis ep is for you if:

They share the unvarnished truth about their journey: surviving the dot-com crash, buying Golf.com back from bankruptcy, founding and scaling Buddy Media (eventually acquired by Salesforce for $745 million), and raising three kids while raising capital. They talk about the choices that shaped them, including why they walked away from a bigger offer from Google and how radical transparency kept their team committed during a three-month period when they couldn't make payroll.We also dive into the patterns they see in the 100+ startups they've backed like how ego, secrecy, and shiny-object syndrome derail founders along with the essential habits that help leaders stay grounded. And because they work together and live together, they open up about how they divide responsibilities, handle stress, and stay connected through exits, pivots, health scares, and everything in between. Their upcoming book distills 50 hard-earned lessons about leadership, resilience, and building a life that actually works. This episode gives you a powerful preview and a reminder that the entrepreneurial path is messy, human, and absolutely worth it.Where to find Kass and Mike:InstagramFacebookMike's LinkedIn Kass' LinkedInTimestamps:(00:00) The beauty in the struggle: why entrepreneurship is a love story(01:10) Resilience as identity and getting punched 10 times for one win(19:19) Creating a workplace people stay in through loyalty and learning(20:16) Radical transparency: telling the team you might not make payroll(21:06) Bad news vs. surprises: the leadership rule that protects trust(22:21) Benevolent dictatorship vs. democracy: choosing decisive leadership(23:53) Honesty as the most valuable currency in a downturn(37:30) The pivot mindset: knowing when to throw things away(52:23) Life after a big exit and leaving ego at the door(53:45) Why working under others made Mike a stronger leader(58:26) Founders and the guilt tax: the emotional cost of ambition(01:08:45) The long-term power of paying it forward(01:10:01) When cofounding goes wrong: misalignment, fallout, and repair(01:12:50) Picking the right partner—in life and in business(01:13:29) Cofounder “prenup” talks: values, work ethic, commitment(01:14:05) No shortcuts: filtering for grit and willingness to shovel(01:15:16) Why overlapping founder roles create conflict(01:21:12) A simple lens for evaluating opportunities without the jargon(01:22:14) Imposter syndrome and grounding yourself under pressure(01:24:22) What they wish they'd kConnect with Alisa!

Your stress, fatigue, pain and overwhelm aren't random, they're messages from your nervous system.

Why do we accumulate possessions, chase promotions, and fill our schedules with endless tasks, yet feel no deeper satisfaction? Pastor Dorrell confronts the epidemic of spiritual emptiness that Solomon identified thousands of years ago—the disease of pursuing life apart from God. Using Ecclesiastes 6, he argues that abundance without God produces three devastating symptoms: the inability to enjoy what we have, meaningless labor that feeds only the body, and a life that impacts no one. The antidote is radical: insert God and people into the equation of your life. Choose to love those around you and receive their love in return, recognizing that happiness is not sold separately from relationship with God and genuine human connection. This holiday season, stop waiting for perfect circumstances and decide right now to make your life about people and the Lord.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Why does accumulating more possessions often leave us more restless rather than more satisfied? Pastor Dorrell confronts the cultural epidemic of discontent by examining Solomon's grand experiment in seeking happiness through wealth, pleasure, and power. Using Ecclesiastes, he argues that true satisfaction cannot be purchased or obtained externally—it is a spiritual gift found only through connection with God. The sermon reveals how possessions without God are like toys without batteries: promising but powerless. Listeners are challenged to shift their focus from acquiring the next thing to genuinely enjoying what they already possess, recognizing that contentment comes not from changing circumstances but from cultivating a heart rooted in God's provision.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Bankrupt subprime retailer Tricolor's 10,000 remaining vehicles may be sold by March 2026 if trustee Anne Burns' motion is approved.Tricolor backup servicer Vervent and vehicle management company Holman will sell all remaining vehicles, if the motion is approved by Judge Michelle Larson. This includes vehicles that may belong to Tricolor's creditors, through third-party auctioneers, according to court documents.The proposal came ahead of former Tricolor Chief Executive Daniel Chu's motion seeking to shore up $15 million in legal defense funds, according to U.S. Bankruptcy Court of the Northern District of Texas Dallas Division court documents. The funds are from insurance payments made by Tricolor before it went bankrupt, according to the documents.Across the subprime auto industry, credit health is declining. Early-stage delinquencies across nonprime securitized auto loans rose 88 basis points year over year and the rate of nonprime securitized loans more than 60 days past due rose 65 basis points YoY in October, according to Kroll Bond Rating Agency's auto loan asset-backed securitization index.Meanwhile, new-vehicle sales were down in five of the 12 regions covered by Federal Reserve banks, according to the most recent edition of the Fed's Beige Book. New-vehicle sales were weighed down by declining consumer demand and EV sales.Automakers offered low APR options and cash-back incentives for Black Friday to stay competitive on rates while balancing affordability concerns. Dealers also expect a short-term dip in wholesale used-vehicle inventory through December as fleet management companies hold onto cars longer.In this episode of “Weekly Wrap,” Auto Finance News Editor Amanda Harris, Senior Associate Editor Truth Headlam and Associate Editor Aidan Bush discuss trends across the subprime auto market, vehicle incentives and Tricolor's Chapter 7 bankruptcy for the week ended Nov. 28.

Martin Black discusses ranching, horsemanship and making a living in the southwestern corner of Idaho. The lifelong horseman has deep roots in the region, as both sides of his family settled in Owyhee County more than 150 years ago and raised and sold thousands of horses to ranchers and buckaroo outfits throughout the Great Basin. Black himself ran cattle and trained horses for many years before he began conducting horsemanship clinics, a livelihood pioneered by his former father-in-law, Ray Hunt. Black's reputation as a teacher of practical horsemanship skills has taken him throughout the United States and into Australia, Brazil and Europe. In addition to working as a rancher and clinician, he has competed successfully in colt starting competitions, won major ranch horse events, claimed a Ranch Horse Association of American National Championship, and started multiple performance horses that went on to win titles in cutting and reined cow horse. He has also released several DVDs, written numerous articles and co-authored the book, Evidence Based Horsemanship with Dr. Stephen Peters. Today, Black continues to ranch in Idaho and conduct private and public clinics.

Peso Pluma BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Peso Pluma has had quite the eventful week, mixing triumph with setback. The Mexican corridos tumbados superstar kicked things off with a massive success, selling out two consecutive nights at YouTube Theater in Inglewood on Wednesday and Thursday this week. Fans from across Southern California flocked to the venue, with attendees ranging from die-hard longtime supporters to newer converts discovering the genre. The energy was palpable, with concertgoers emphasizing what his rise means for Mexican representation in mainstream American music.However, the celebration was tempered by a significant injury. During his headlining performance at New York's Governors Ball last week, Peso Pluma broke his foot while performing on stage. The injury was serious enough to require surgery, which he underwent immediately following the festival. On Instagram, he provided fans with a reassuring update, posting that the surgery went well and stating he'd be back on stages soon, signing off with his characteristic enthusiasm. Despite the pain, he continued performing that night at Governors Ball, telling the audience he could barely stand but was committed to finishing his set.The injury has already begun impacting his schedule. He has canceled three scheduled performances across Latin America in Peru, Paraguay, and Chile that were planned for the following week after the Governors Ball incident.On a lighter note, there's been renewed speculation about potential reconciliation in the corridos world. At a show in Los Angeles this week, artist Netón Vega brought out both Peso Pluma and JOP as surprise guests, fueling rumors among fans that the artists might be patching things up after previous tensions.Meanwhile, his personal life continues to garner attention. Singer Nicki Nicole, who previously dated Peso Pluma from late 2023 through early 2024, has recently made headlines of her own, debuting as an actress and earning her eighth Latin Grammy nomination for her album "Get On."Despite the foot injury requiring surgery and forced tour cancellations, Peso Pluma's momentum remains undeniable. His album Genesis debuted at number three on the Billboard 200, and his cultural impact continues to reshape how regional Mexican music is perceived in the United States and globally.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
AI systems change constantly. Models get deprecated, APIs shift, and what works today might fail tomorrow. Instead of trying to keep up with everything, I've built my systems for permanent adaptability. That means migration patterns that let me run old and new prompts side by side, using OpenAI's hidden Flex tier to cut costs by 50%, front-loading repeated data in prompts to maximize cache savings, and implementing circuit breakers so runaway AI costs can't blow up my bill. These aren't optimizations — they're how you run AI in production without losing your mind or your money.I'm running a time-limited Black Friday sale of The Bootstrapper's Bundle: all my books, all my courses, all formats, for $25 instead of $100+.

Guests: Toronto Star journalists Ben Mussett and Omar Mosleh A Toronto Star investigation uncovered a troubling loophole inside Meta's advertising system. Reporters Ben Mussett and Omar Mosleh found illegal drugs being advertised and sold to Canadians through paid Meta ads on Facebook and Instagram. With one click, the Star was linked to online shops offering cocaine, Oxycodone, MDMA, Xanax, ketamine and more, and discovered how easily these drugs could be ordered and shipped. The investigation raises urgent questions about Meta's ad moderation, platform safety and how drug traffickers are exploiting automated tools to reach users. Meta, the tech giant that owns Facebook and Instagram, says it has "zero tolerance" for the ads and works to find and remove the illegal drug posts. In this episode, we unpack what happened when Star journalists tested the system themselves, why Meta's detection tools aren't stopping illicit drug ads, and who these ads are targeting the most.

Retailers who have sold children's coloured play sand potentially laced with asbestos need to be held to account, according to Labour's consumer Affairs spokesperson. The contamination scare has prompted a recall of several brands, including another one just this afternoon. It's illegal to import any products with asbestos and its up to sellers to make sure any toys are up to safety standard. Labour Consumer Affairs spokesperson Arena Williams spoke to Lisa Owen.
Kamil Philip was born in post-Communist Poland and came to the U.S. with his family on a one-month visa that turned into a lifelong fight for survival. Growing up in a Long Island junkyard, Kamil's version of the American dream spiraled into gun charges, forged documents, and years of run-ins with the law. But his biggest battle wasn't prison—it was deportation. After losing his mother and being targeted by a detective determined to ruin his future, Kamil faced being sent back to the country his family risked everything to leave. Against all odds, a judge let him stay, and he rebuilt his life from scratch. Today, he's a successful business owner who employs ex-cons, mentors young people, and teaches others how to build their own second chance. From selling guns and fake documents to nearly being deported, Kamil's story is a powerful journey of survival, redemption, and what it really takes to overcome the system. #LockedInWithIanBick #TrueCrime #DrugTrafficking #DeportationStory #PrisonStories #Immigration #RedemptionStory #realstories Thank you to RULA & PELIPOST for sponsoring this episode: Rula: Rula patients typically pay $15 per session when using insurance.

From child murderer to instant drug-dealing recidivist, proof once again that some people are simply determined to find out the hard way.

Wait, you're telling me that a $100 million plus acquisition just occurred in the North American protein bar market…and I've never once mentioned the brand name throughout its almost decadelong existence? That simply cannot be TRU! Though, before anyone tries to ignorantly throw dirt on my name…I'll finally reveal why I've been publicly ignoring TRUBAR! However, it was just announced that TRUBAR would be acquired by Eti Gida, a Turkish CPG company, for approximately $142.5 million. And if you were trying to understand the valuation…as of the 2025 third quarter closing (dated September 30, 2025), trailing twelve months revenue from the TRUBAR segment would be just shy of $61 million. So, this would imply a 2.3x trailing twelve-month revenue multiple. And this is why I suspect TRUBAR “retail investors” are unhappy with the M&A transaction, as it would mark what I believe to be one of the lowest revenue multiples in the last decade of the protein bars market. Yet, for several varied reasons…TRUBAR isn't ONE Brands, Quest Nutrition, FITCRUNCH, Barebells, Power Crunch, or a few other protein bar companies involved in recent M&A activity. Firstly, unlike the negative EBITDA (on a trailing twelve-month basis) at TRUBAR, these other protein bar companies actually made money. Next, while customers might enjoy the taste (and consumption experience) of TRUBAR products, there isn't anything differentiated about them. If you weren't familiar, protein bars are mostly a contract manufacturing “follow the leader” dominated category with a “sea of sameness” market composition. But even if TRUBAR differentiation could've been gained by form factor uniqueness (complexity), it still requires creating (or owning) the manufacturing process if a protein snacking company really hopes to secure longer-term defensibility (and competitive advantage). Then, with Big CPG jumping heavily into “protein-ified variants” of their leading snacking brands, it will further deepen the competitive landscape and transform “protein” into a battleground category as it proliferates across the entire grocery store. And you can argue that most of the beforementioned protein bars are dealing (at some level) with this same challenge (as the market evolves, expands, and segments further), but mainstream buyers don't know about TRUBAR. Yes, retail availability has grown substantially in recent years…and revenue growth has largely accompanied it, but TRUBAR still has an extremely low U.S. protein bars market share and brand household penetration percentage overall. But to understand if new ownership can materially improve the likelihood that TRUBAR will become culturally relevant with the next generation of modern protein snacking customers, I'll more closely examine Eit Gida...which is among the top CPG manufacturers based in Turkey (becoming well-known in multiple geographies across various bakery and snacking categories). Though, you might be wondering…why is a Turkish Big CPG strategic acquiring a relatively small Canadian public company selling plant-based protein bars mainly in the U.S. market? But more importantly if Eti Gida can really help TRUBAR carve out a distinct niche in the crowded North American protein bar market.

Edward English grew up between Houston and Ohio in a turbulent home marked by an absent father and an abusive stepfather. Put on Ritalin from ages 7 to 17, he struggled with confidence and identity — eventually turning to drugs as a way to escape. What started as experimentation spiraled into an eight-year heroin addiction that led to his arrest in 2011 for possession, distribution, and trafficking. Sentenced to nearly eight years in prison, Edward served 4.5 before being released in 2016. Behind bars, everything changed. Through faith, mentorship, and personal growth programs, he transformed his mindset and rebuilt his life from the inside out — a journey he documents in his memoir Emersion. Today, Edward is 14 years clean, a husband, father, and commercial plumber in Columbus, Ohio, dedicated to helping others overcome addiction and find purpose after prison. His story is one of pain, perseverance, and the power of true transformation. #LockedInWithIanBick #PrisonStories #TrueCrime #AddictionRecovery #HeroinAddiction #OhioPrison #RedemptionStory #realstories Thank you to DAWS for sponsoring this episode: Go to http://www.daws.org/ to donate, adopt or send items from their wishlist.

Advocates, Not SalespeopleDutch's relationship-based shop model stands in stark contrast to transactional sales environments. No Salespeople:Dutch does not employ “salesmen,” he employs “advocates.”Role of an Advocate:Advocates collaborate with customers to understand what they want for their vehicle and their long-term plans, then help design solutions that support those goals.Eliminating Pressure:The shop enforces a strict “no pressure, ever” philosophy. There are no commissions, no sales quotas, no whiteboards, no competitive bonuses—removing any incentive that could create a conflict of interest. The episode also dives into several controversial but important topics: The need to revisittechnician licensing, with Dutch arguing current standards are “window dressing.”Theflat-rate paradox, especially when contrasted with the younger generation's desire for work-life balance rather than solely financial incentive.Determining anoptimal labor ratein a way that supports sustainability and talent retention. The TakeawayThe conversation reinforces that effective sales—better yet, advocacy—are rooted in trust. When customers feel supported rather than sold to, they embrace their decisions with confidence. This shift from selling to serving creates a healthier, more sustainable customer experience and business model. https://astausa.org/pages/asta-expo Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Learn more about NAPA Auto Care and the benefits of being part of the NAPA family by visiting https://www.napaonline.com/en/auto-care NAPA TRACS will move your shop into the SMS fast lane with onsite training and six days a week of support and local representation.

Most Americans have little understanding of the vast amount of private data harvested from their smartphones by third parties, said Joe Weil, a former Apple product manager and the founder of Unplugged.Where you go, who you associate with, what you like, is all easily discoverable, Weil said.“It's publicly available. It's purchasable.”What's even worse is that the Fourth Amendment does not protect this advertising data, he said. The U.S. government, for example, does not require a warrant to access it.Data brokers sell this data freely, and by applying just a few filters, anyone—foreign governments, intelligence services, criminal cartels—can easily triangulate it to surveil and target individual people or groups, Weil said.“We can't do [surveillance] in China. They can do it here, and it's a huge vulnerability. They can easily find the people they want to take off the board—it's mapped out from our phones,” he said.Weil worked for 10 years at Apple in product strategy before founding Unplugged, a tech company that has built a smartphone designed to block tracking, data harvesting, and behavioral profiling at the system level.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.
