If Chris Cooper started a gym tomorrow, with no reputation, no members and no brand, what would he do?In this episode of "Run a Profitable Gym," Two-Brain Business CEO John Franklin puts founder Chris Cooper through a real-time thought experiment: build a gym from scratch using everything he's learned from 30 years in the industry.The pair work through six categories step by step: the coaching model, pricing, space and lease decisions, equipment spend, the exact marketing funnels Chris would use to land his first clients without ads, and when and how he'd eventually bring on staff.Chris gets specific throughout, sharing real numbers on rent, equipment budgets, pricing and how many clients it takes to earn $50,000 in year one. He also touches on the advice he's giving his own daughter as she considers opening a gym of her own.Tune in for a candid, numbers-driven look at what a smarter gym launch looks like today.LinksState of the Industry SurveyGym Owners UnitedBook a Call0:03 - Starting a gym with a clean slate1:12 - The coaching model: one-on-one to semi-private4:28 - Marketing without ads or a following10:36 - Space, lease and build-out decisions16:21 - Earning a full-time income20:57 - When and how to hire

Jonathan Drake joins Chris Ponder and Lt. Gen. (Ret.) Steven L. Kwast this week to dig into natural law, the idea that God built physical rules for the universe and equally binding rules for human relationships, and why ignoring either one tends to end badly. Jonathan brings a research background on pattern and structure that pairs surprisingly well with Chris's information framework, and the conversation wanders through some genuinely fun territory: intuitive facial symmetry, a childhood aversion to cartoons, and a memorable bit about souls, planets, and gain of function jokes that somehow ties back to the bigger mission. Kwast keeps steering things back to the practical goal, building a tool ordinary people can actually use to separate truth from lies. Expect deep thinking, a little humor, and a reminder that none of this technology means anything without moral grounding underneath it.

Organizing Board Space to Support Reasoning & Connection, Part 1, with Dr. Tutita Casa & Katherine Mack ROUNDING UP: SEASON 5 | EPISODE 1 Classroom boards have traditionally been a space that belongs to the teacher, even as technology changes. What would it look like to rethink our relationship with the board, repositioning it as a shared space for teachers and students alike? In part 1 of this two-part series, Mike sits down with Dr. Tutita Casa and Katherine Mack from the University of Connecticut to talk about ways teachers can establish norms and develop practices that make the board a shared space that reflects students' reasoning.    BIOGRAPHIES Tutita Casa is an associate professor of elementary mathematics education at the Neag School of Education at the University of Connecticut. Her work is aimed at supporting teachers to empower students to grapple with the mathematics and engage with the discipline in ways similar to how mathematicians go about their work. Katherine Mack is a doctoral student in curriculum and instruction at the University of Connecticut. She examines how elementary teachers can facilitate mathematical discourse by repositioning the instructional board as a space that centers student reasoning and makes it visible.  RESOURCES  Listen to Tutita's last appearance on the podcast.

Unlike the made-for-TV special announcing the final twelve players at this year's Presidents Cup, this Wednesday episode is not a full hour long... but Andy and Brendan do spend most of it reacting to the final rosters and the programming that brought them to us. The two discuss the ridiculousness of a 60-minute show at 5 p.m. on a Tuesday to announce the teams, every player immediately being called "great for the teamroom," and U.S. captain Brandt Snedeker's whispers to Todd Lewis about his selections. Eventually they do get into the picks, most notably Snedeker's selection of Jackson Koivun as the final man on Team USA. Andy and Brendan wonder how Snedeker might've arrived at the decision to take the young star, with some conspiracies being thrown out almost immediately. They debate the merits picking of Koivun (and Jacob Bridgeman) instead of some who did not make the team, including Ryan Gerard, J.J. Spaun, and Ben Griffin. On the International side, Geoff Ogilvy's selections were fairly chalk until a surprise final selection of Christiaan Bezuidenhout, whose wifi (or lack thereof) was a lowlight of the Golf Channel show. PJ can't believe the C-Bez pick and points out that he's ranked lower than assistant captain Taylor Pendrith on basically any list you can find. Andy supposes that the selection was a last-minute rebuttal to the Bridge Man's putter landing a spot on the American side. After plenty of P-Cup talk and a plug for the upcoming SGS Live Show at SPACE, Andy and Brendan discuss a very small Schedule for the Week before getting into some recent news. Colt Knost has found his way back to the forefront of the reinstated amateur debate, but he might've been playing it up on social for those precious, precious impressions. Lastly, Brendan breaks Andy and PJ's brains with a revelation about former PGA of America President Don Rea and his latest whereabouts in a final segment you won't want to miss.

In this Wednesday Q&A episode of The Wright Report, Bryan answers a listener's question about the escalating "mow the lawn" strategy in Iran, revealing how Vladimir Putin is directly supplying Tehran with missiles and targeting intelligence used to strike US forces. Bryan answers listener questions on whether TikTok's algorithm is fueling online support for a Massachusetts mother who murdered her three children, a disturbing court ruling on AI-generated child abuse material, and Community Benefit Agreements as a possible fix for the AI data center fight. He also breaks down why an OpenAI model's rogue breakout from its testing sandbox amounts to a "digital gain of function" moment reminiscent of Fauci's coronavirus research. Plus, Bryan covers China's use of its COSCO shipping fleet to spy on US military communications, a widening H-1B visa scam funneling friends and family into fake sponsor corporations in Texas, Texas Senate candidate James Talarico's radical theology and open-borders platform, and a surprising surge in CD and vinyl sales as more families embrace "90s parenting."

In this episode of the Finovate podcast, host Greg sits down with Luca Terragni, Chief Revenue Officer and co-founder of Prestatech, a finalist in the Risk Management category for the 2026 Finovate Awards. Luca shares his fascinating journey from traditional investment management in New York and London to launching PrestaCap, an alternative lending platform in Europe in 2016. What started as a direct lending business using their own balance sheet evolved into a powerful technology solution when Luca and his team discovered that traditional financial data points weren't sufficient for accurately assessing SMB creditworthiness. Their breakthrough came from analyzing real-time bank account transaction data, which provided a much clearer picture of a business's current financial health compared to backward-looking financial statements and credit bureau reports.The conversation delves into how Prestatech transformed from being a lender competing with banks to becoming their technology partner. After successfully exiting PrestaCap to a private equity fund in 2020, Luca and his co-founder realized their bank account data analytics technology could serve a much larger purpose. Rather than lending to a few hundred businesses annually with their own capital, they could empower banks to make better lending decisions for millions of businesses. The technology focuses on monitoring loan book health by processing SMB bank account transactions on a regular basis, identifying distress signals much earlier than they would appear in traditional credit bureau reports—a capability that's particularly valuable for regional and community banks sitting on vast, underutilized bank account data lakes.Now expanding into the U.S. market, Prestatech is bringing its battle-tested European technology to address the acute challenges American financial institutions face in the current tightening credit cycle. Luca explains that their cash flow analytics layer helps banks identify creditworthy businesses that might otherwise be filtered out by traditional underwriting methods, especially newer or "thinner-filed" companies that lack extensive credit histories but demonstrate strong real-time financial performance. With their technology already regulated and audited by the European Central Bank, Prestatech is positioning itself as a trusted partner for U.S. banks looking to enhance their risk management capabilities through smarter use of bank account transaction data.More info:Prestatech: https://www.prestatech.com; https://www.linkedin.com/company/goprestatech/Luca Terragni: https://www.linkedin.com/in/terragni/Greg Palmer: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gregbpalmer/Finovate: https://www.finovate.com; https://www.linkedin.com/company/finovate-conference-series/Finovate Awards: https://informaconnect.com/finovate-industry-awards/#Finovate #FinovateAwards #fintech #financialinstitutions #finalist #smb #risk #riskmanagement #modernization #technology #strategy #fintechstrategy #personalization #data #transactiondata #digitaladoption #podcast #fintechpodcast #financialservices #innovation #digitraltransformation #fintech #finserv

When does the spiritual search end—and the actual living begin? Rev. Michael J.S. Carter returns to the Unity Manifest Podcast for a wide-ranging conversation about consciousness, manifestation, spiritual maturity, channeling, AI, the nature of reality, and the difference between collecting knowledge and actually becoming the person your spiritual path is pointing toward. Michael and Gary explore why our perception can shape the world we experience, why making a real decision can change the direction of our lives, and why endless spiritual seeking can eventually become another way of avoiding transformation. They also discuss the Cube of Space, metaphysics, reincarnation, ancient astronaut theory, technology, human consciousness, and the difference between knowledge and wisdom. Michael ultimately brings the conversation back to a deceptively simple question: What do you actually want—and are you willing to live it? A grounded conversation about moving beyond belief and beginning to embody what you've learned.AppleSpotify

What if the thing making your working day harder isn't the workload?What if it's the building?In this episode we're joined by Jerry Kennard from ⁠Evoke Projects⁠, someone who designs veterinary spaces for a living and has watched a lot of owners get this expensively wrong. Because a practice build always starts as a dream: the right location, the beautiful fit-out - the clinic you've always wanted. But plan it wrong, and that dream can quickly turn into a trap that stifles growth and demotivates teams .

In this Dream Biz Journey episode, I got to talk with one of my biggest inspirations, Molly Balint. Molly is a speaker, educator, storytelling expert, Instagram strategist, and founder The Soft Business Club, a membership focused on storytelling and building a sustainable business without hustle. Molly shares the family legacy that shapes her story and her 22-year path from early blogging and corporate social media to teaching female farmers and eventually founding The Soft Business Club. We discuss how hustle, comparison, and self-limiting stories (including beliefs about weight and needing an “it factor”) kept her playing small, and how therapy, self-acceptance, and leaning into her gifts helped her show up fully. Now, her business is built around community and teaching, allowing her to create more space, peace, and bigger dreams. Listen in to learn exactly how she got to where she is today and how she shows up for her community without sacrificing the life she wants.Follow Molly on Instagram Join The Soft Business Club--Follow Christi on InstagramJoin The Dream Biz Playground--00:00 Welcome and Intro01:40 Life on the Farm04:40 From Blogging to Soft Business07:23 Hustle Burnout and Inner Stories15:34 Stop Playing Small26:10 All Roads to Soft Business Club32:54 Calendar Boundaries and Energy39:03 Space to Dream Bigger45:52 Big Dreams and Fullest Self50:56 Wrap Up and Where to Follow

The demand for AI compute is exploding, but is growth truly exponential? Dillon breaks down why power generation — not construction — is the real bottleneck holding back data center expansion, and how that ripple effect hits memory production, GPUs, and fab manufacturing (Micron, TSMC, NVIDIA). He also explores how legislative gridlock in the U.S. could push data centers overseas to the Middle East, or even into orbit, as SpaceX's Starship makes space-based compute a surprisingly viable option.

Hey Heal Squad! Today Maria is back with another What Worked This Week, and just like last week we are paying attention, but this time paying attention to the little things that can simplify our lives before they completely overhaul! You'll basically walk away thinking WHY have I not been doing this forever?! First up: the garage. After coming home to what she lovingly calls a “hoarder's paradise,” Maria finally tackled the clutter and created a system where everything has a home from Amazon returns to Athena's toys…but we also  we get into why clearing out the physical clutter around you can feel like a nervous system reset…and maybe even inspire you to deal with some of the “clutter” you've been avoiding in other areas of your life. Then we're talking BEAUTY because Maria is sharing the photo of  the facial technique that gave her a visible eye lift in literally SECONDS!  Then we also have some ridiculously simple hacks you might immediately steal: the tiny organizer that finally keeps Maria's headphones from becoming a tangled disaster at the bottom of her purse (link is below!), why she is officially giving you permission to bring sneakers to the wedding and change out of those heels, and the SKIMS bra that finally made her say, “I deserve a new bra.” And stick around for Maria's bonus “what worked” because it turned into this unexpectedly beautiful reminder to slow down, get outside, put your feet on the ground, and appreciate where our food actually comes from. Nothing in this episode is going to completely overhaul your life,  and that's kind of the point. Sometimes feeling better starts with the little things that make YOU better. Enjoy!

Hi Mamas, ,  What if the goal isn't to get better at doing everything... but to make some of it easier?  As busy working moms, we become incredibly capable. We manage careers, kids, calendars, meals, appointments, school activities, relationships, homes—and about a million tiny details no one else seems to realize we're keeping track of.  And somewhere along the way, we can start believing that because we're capable of doing it all, we should do it all.  But this week's Monday Mindset is your reminder:  “Every task you simplify creates space for something that matters more.”  Because simplifying your life isn't just about saving time. It's about deciding what you want to do with the time you get back.  Maybe simplifying dinner gives you more time to sit with your family.  Maybe automating a task gives you time to take a walk.  Maybe delegating something gives you more patience with your kids.  Maybe finding a faster way to handle something at work helps you close your laptop on time.  Or maybe that extra time gives you a few minutes to sit on the couch and do absolutely nothing—and yes, mama, that counts too.  In today's Monday Mindset, we're talking about why being capable doesn't mean you have to do everything yourself, why productivity shouldn't simply mean squeezing more into your day, and how simplifying the small things can help reduce your mental load and create more work-life balance.  Because the goal isn't to become more efficient so you can do more.  The goal is to become more efficient so you have more room for the people, priorities and moments that matter most.

At some point in the next decade, a historian is going to look at the first quarter of the 21st century from the perspective of the national security establishment and the blessings it had as it rose to global power status, and will publish the foundational reference book for those trying to understand that moment in time.Its primary rivals distracted and drained themselves in unnecessary quixotic quasi-imperial police actions, one in Central and Southwest Asia (U.S.A.), the other bled itself white attempting to reconstruct at least part of its predecessor's empire (Russia). All the while, its economy grew, its diplomatic influence expanded, and its military became an impressive, if untested, colossus.Yes, the People's Republic of China (PRC) had its problems and setbacks: demographic collapse, massive debt, economic fragility, and poor messaging—but so did its greatest competitors.In 2026, while most have been focused on the Iranian-Israeli-American conflict and the Russo-Ukrainian War rooted in unsolved issues from the end of the 20th century, the PRC continues its march forward into the future.Returning to the Midrats Podcast to discuss will be Dean Cheng.Dean is a Non-resident Senior Fellow, Potomac Institute for Policy Studies and Non-resident Fellow, George Washington University Space Policy Institute.He recently retired after 14 years with the Heritage Foundation, where he was a senior research fellow on Chinese political and security affairs, and wrote on various aspects of Chinese foreign and defense policy.Prior to joining the Heritage Foundation, he was a senior analyst with the China Studies Division (previously, Project Asia) at CNA from 2001-2009. Before joining CNA, he was a senior analyst with Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) from 1996-2001. From 1993-1995, he was an analyst with the US Congress' Office of Technology Assessment in the International Security and Space Division, where he studied the Chinese defense industrial complex.He is the author of the book Cyber Dragon: Inside China's Information Warfare and Cyber Operations (NY: Praeger Publishing, 2016), as well as a number of papers and book chapters examining various aspects of Chinese security affairs.SummaryIn this episode, Mark, Sal, and Dean Cheng discusses China's strategic challenges, space ambitions, AI development, and regional influence, providing insights into China's long-term plans and global impact.Show LinksTo A Louse, On Seeing One on a Lady's Bonnet at Church, Robert BurnsGreat Wall, movie with Matt Damon2012, movie Himalayas Tsunami SceneRed Cliff, movie (the good one)Chapters00:00: Introduction and overview of China's global strategy02:38: Dean Cheng's background and China's long-term planning04:46: China's strategic challenges beyond the US06:04: North Korea's shifting alliances and regional dynamics08:06: Russia, China, and North Korea cooperation10:27: Chinese perceptions of US and regional threats12:25: Japan, Korea, and China's regional ambitions14:29: China's post-COVID strategic posture and influence16:03: China's national messaging and global image17:28: Xi Jinping's strategic vision and military buildup19:57: China's influence in the Pacific and Arctic regions22:42: Canada, Greenland, and China's northern ambitions31:00: China's space program and lunar exploration49:58: The race to the moon and space dominance54:46: Future of space exploration and international standards55:33: Long-term US space strategy and Chinese competition59:36: US and Chinese space efforts and collaboration01:00:26: Conclusion

The Space Show Presents Leonard David, Sunday, 8-30-26 4583This was a space show discussion hosted by David Livingston with veteran space journalist Leonard David as the main guest, along with several space community members including Marshall Martin, Manuel Cuba, Bill Gowen, John Hunt, Dr. Charles Lurio, Phil Swan, Dr. A.J. Kothari, and Dr. Doug Plata. The conversation centered on the recent launch of NASA's Roman telescope, with Leonard describing it as a significant moment in astronomy that will complement existing observatories like Hubble and James Webb. The discussion also covered Leonard's skepticism about NASA's Artemis program, particularly regarding the transition from Artemis III's lunar orbit mission to a human landing on the moon, with Leonard expressing concerns about technical readiness and the need for proper testing before committing human missions. The conversation touched on China's lunar program delays, SpaceX's Starship development challenges, and broader space policy issues, with participants discussing the gap between scientific discoveries and their incorporation into educational materials for students.David hosted this program with Leonard David as the main guest, discussing recent space developments including the Roman telescope launch. Barbara reported watching the launch early in the morning and praised SpaceX's success, comparing it to the James Webb telescope deployment. The discussion touched on how new astronomical data from instruments like the Roman telescope and James Webb might be more quickly accessible to the public and citizen science groups compared to previous missions, potentially addressing the delay in updating science textbooks with current findings.Leonard expressed skepticism about the current status of NASA's Artemis program, citing concerns about the technical readiness to transition from Earth orbit operations to human lunar landings. She noted that while Artemis II was inspiring, there are missing technical links similar to those proven during Apollo missions, and she emphasized the need to avoid early human fatalities in the program. Leonard also discussed the growing space competition with China and the importance of communicating space exploration to the public in accessible ways beyond technical jargon.The group discussed China's postponement of the Chang'e 7 mission to 2027, with Barbara explaining that timing issues around lunar illumination at the South Pole were the main factor, as the mission required specific lighting conditions for the landing area. Charles clarified that the 18.3-year lunar cycle affects illumination at the South Pole more significantly than at equatorial regions, requiring precise timing rather than simply waiting for the next identical opportunity. The discussion also touched on technical challenges with the relay satellite and landing site conditions, with comparisons made to similar challenges faced by NASA's Artemis program.Leonard also expressed skepticism about current space programs, particularly regarding SpaceX's promises and Elon Musk's leadership style, comparing it to past experiences with the space shuttle program. He shared her concerns about the challenges facing private space companies like SpaceX and Blue Origin, noting that the current space program is significantly different from the Apollo program. Our guest reflected on the past involvement in promoting student payloads for the space shuttle program, where she and colleagues testified before Congress about getting students involved in NASA missions.The group discussed challenges related to lunar exploration, including the complex illumination conditions at the South Pole due to the 18.6-year lunar nodal cycle and the need for continuous computer simulations to map polar sunlight. Leonard highlighted concerns about moonquakes and the importance of gathering more data through additional seismometers before committing to a moon base. The conversation shifted to broader political and financial topics, with David expressing skepticism about government fiscal responsibility and noting that both major political parties contribute to growing national debt, which he believes will have significant impacts on future generations.The group discussed the Artemis program, particularly focusing on the need for unmanned lunar landings before human missions as part of the Artemis IV planning. Leonard expressed skepticism about claims of a cislunar economy, noting that while there are studies and interest from multiple countries including India and China, the sustainability and economic viability of lunar exploration remain uncertain. The discussion also touched on historical space missions, including challenges during Apollo 10 and 11, before being interrupted by David who mentioned a recent Deloitte report on space and the moon.David shared information about a new Deloitte report on the lunar economy, which estimates a potential economic value of $343 billion to $566 billion through 2050. He plans to review the report's assumptions and potentially invite the authors to discuss it on his space show. The group discussed the importance of reviewing economic projections and assumptions in space exploration, with Barbara emphasizing the need for sustained human presence on the moon before considering Mars missions.The group discussed the development status of Starship, particularly focusing on the differences between flights 13 and 14. Charles explained that flight 14 would attempt to catch both the booster and Starship, with the upper stage catch feature being removed recently. The discussion highlighted ongoing challenges with propellant transfer testing and concerns about space debris, with Leonard expressing worry about potential explosions during refueling operations in orbit.Our guest expressed support for the idea of a Space Academy similar to Annapolis or West Point, noting her work on rewriting a Space Career book and conducting interviews with space startups. He highlighted challenges in the space startup industry, including frequent changes in leadership and funding issues, while acknowledging the presence of successful companies in Colorado like Advanced Space and Blue Canyon. The discussion touched on SpaceX's dominance in the industry and its role in launching numerous payloads, including CubeSats, though its future plans with Falcon 9 remain uncertain.Leonard and David discussed public skepticism about UAPs (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena), noting that recent Pentagon releases and media coverage have increased public interest. Leonard expressed concerns about missing data in Pentagon files and highlighted credible reports from military pilots, while also considering alternative explanations including military testing programs. The conversation touched on historical perspectives on UFOs, including experiences from the 1950s, and mentioned ongoing congressional efforts to protect whistleblowers who come forward with UAP information.The group discussed various topics related to space exploration and UAPs. Barbara shared insights about Mike Gold's work on NASA's UAP study and Bigelow Aerospace's involvement. The conversation then shifted to potential new propulsion technologies, with Leonard mentioning a company called Exodus that is developing innovative space travel solutions. David referred to a podcast interview with Eric Weinstein, who discussed how conventional scientific constraints may limit our understanding of space travel, propulsion, and extraterrestrial life. The conversation ended with a discussion about a new book by Steve Benner that critiques how science handled the Viking data on Mars.The group discussed Eric Weinstein, with Bill describing him as intelligent but having a persecution complex as an outsider to physics, while John Jossy mentioned Weinstein's technical paper on unified field theory. Leonard shared her experience filming with Buzz Aldrin for a new documentary and mentioned an upcoming story about a potentially significant finding on Venus. The conversation concluded with Leonard describing her childhood experience witnessing a black triangle-shaped object, which she believes was a classified U.S. aircraft based on information from Bill Scott, though John Hunt expressed skepticism about the alien origin theory.Special thanks to our sponsors:American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Helix Space in Luxembourg, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights, Astrox Corporation, Dr. Haym Benaroya of Rutgers University, The Space Settlement Progress Blog by John Jossy, The Atlantis Project, and Artless EntertainmentWe use Zoom phone numbers for program participation.For real time program participation, email Dr. Space at: drspace@thespaceshow.com for instructions and access.The Space Show is a non-profit 501C3 through its parent, One Giant Leap Foundation, Inc.
