Send us a textWelcome back, peasants. In this spicy no-ads-needed episode, the Ones Ready crew tears into the mind-numbing chaos that is the DoD's budgeting incompetence. From canceled bonuses to SkillBridge chaos and the eternal mystery of why military uniforms fit nobody, this is your front-row seat to the clown show that is Pentagon-level “planning.”Also? If you thought complaining about gear was just a “female” issue, strap in. We're about to tell you why literally everyone from PJs to SEALs has been modifying crap for decades—and no, it's not the patriarchy, it's just government contracts. Plus, the AC-130 gets its flowers, JC's got Overwatch, and somehow we talk about dental X-rays and slings made from Pelican hooks.

Send us a textIn this high-velocity “WTF is happening?” episode of the Ones Ready podcast, Jared pulls no punches breaking down the latest Pentagon finance dumpster fire—because apparently, the Air Force's solution to a budget shortfall is to hit pause on YOUR retirement and nuke the Selective Retention Bonus mid-fiscal year. Classic.We're talking cancelled bonuses, delayed separation orders, SkillBridge chaos, and the mind-blowing revelation that even the Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force got blindsided. If you thought Big Blue had a plan, lol, think again.This isn't normal. This isn't routine. And it sure as hell isn't okay. Jared brings receipts, ETP breakdowns, and a warning to every operator banking on a transition plan that just went up in bureaucratic flames.

Po osmdesáté slavíme konec druhé světové války. Zdánlivě o ní všechno víme, přitom ale je pořád mnoho neznámých příběhů i jenom u nás ve střední Evropě. Třeba příběh nejmenšího slovanského národa, Lužických Srbů: slovanští občané Německa byli germanizováni, měli zakázáno používat svou řeč, muži museli sloužit ve wehrmachtu. Na jaře 1945 přišla sovětská armáda a pod ní začleněná 2. polská armáda Lužici osvobodit, na což ženy vzpomínají jako na největší hrůzu svých životů. Sověti znásilňovali, Poláci kradli. Drážďany hořely, Budyšín byl rozstřílen, Lužice vydrancována. Zlato ztratilo veškerou cenu, rodiny byly rozbité, lidé se vydali na cesty. Mnoho z nich i do Čech, válkou dotčených málo. Lužičtí Srbové válku vyhráli, přesto jsou dnes na poražené straně. Poslechněte si příběh, který by vám neměl zůstat utajen, protože v něm jsou významně přítomni i Češi. Jakub a Lukáš Novosadovi v dalším díle svého sourozeneckého podcastu přibližují historii, která neprávem stále stojí stranou pozornosti.„Dovolím si prohlásit, že druhá světová válka zdechla v Hórkách, neboť útok polního maršála Schörnera byl posledním nesmyslným útokem Hitlerovy armády. Její nejvyšší velitel se totiž mezitím v Berlíně zastřelil,“ napsal spisovatel Jurij Koch a konstatoval tak, že Lužičtí Srbové by měli být plnohodnotně přítomni u oslav konce druhé světové války. Leč nejsou. Neslaví je, protože neslaví ani Německo. V Německé demokratické republice, pod níž Lužice spadala, se do roku 1965 slavil 8. května Tag der Befreiung (Den osvobození). Později na oslavy došlo už jen dvakrát při kulatých výročích: při čtyřicátém v roce 1985 znovu 8. května pod zavedeným názvem, při třicátém v roce 1975 o den později pod hlavičkou Tag des Sieges (Den vítězství). Jinak nikdy, od německého znovusjednocení v roce 1990 už vůbec – až před pěti lety svátek vyhlásila spolková země Berlín.Nacismus v Lužici trval od roku 1933 do roku 1945 a Slované, které Hitlerův režim nejprve vábil k volbám, byli postupně víc a víc šikanováni. Byly zakazovány jejich tiskoviny, finančně byly podporovány rodiny, které se zřekly slovanského jazyka, naopak ty, které na něm trvaly, byly pronásledovány. Učitelé a faráři byli odesíláni do ryze německojazyčných oblastí, zatímco do Lužice naopak přicházely prověřené kádry, neschopné slovanského slova. Po nacistické buzeraci přišlo jaro 1945 a rovinatá země posloužila jako prostor pro vpád sovětské armády na Berlín. Operovaly tu polské jednotky spolu se sovětskými, padly stovky Poláků.Pamětnice dodnes říkají, že nacisté se chovali strašně, ale že to, co předváděli Sověti, bylo daleko horší. Známé jsou cedulky, které si Lužičtí Srbové vyvěšovali na dveře domů a na nichž azbukou byly vyvedeny nápisy: „Zde bydlí Slované, ne Němci.“ Nepomáhalo to – zabitých a znásilněnýchbylo mnoho. Asi je to logické: Němci tu byli doma, území neokupovali, nerabovali na něm ani neznásilňovali, zatímco Rudá armáda ano. Navíc v chaosu války zřejmě nikdo nehleděl na to, kdo je kdo, ostatně Rudoarmějci patrně nevěděli, že by v Lužici, tedy v Německu, mohli Slované žít.Pamětníci také vzpomínají na rudé nebe, když hořely Drážďany – vidět ho bylo i daleko z Čech. Fronta celou zemi zničila, byl hlad, všechno zničené a vypálené. Nebyla práce, proto lidé odcházeli do Čech, kde naopak byla a poptávka po lidech také. Už zůstali, šlo o ryzí ekonomickou migraci. A zároveň byla dotvořena další zkáza: odsun Němců z Čech znamenal, že někam ti lidé jít museli. A tak šli mimo jiné do Lužice, kterou germanizovali. Dotvořili Češi, kteří se po staletí snažili pomáhat Lužickým Srbům a podporovat je, jejich zkázu? Aneb konečně podcast, který klade zásadní otázky.

This episode tackles the complexity of Sino-Serbian relations vis-à-vis the EU from a historical and regional perspective. Serbia is a European EU-candidate country, but it has a long history of advocating for a non-aligned international position. Furthermore, in recent years Serbia has emerged as a key Chinese partner in Europe, with intensified economic and socio-political cooperation and the gradual establishment of a so-called “Ironclad Friendship”. In 2024, Serbia was one of three countries on Xi Jinping's European tour and the first in Europe to commit to building a “community with a shared future” with China. Based on extensive empirical research, the development of Sino-Serbian relations is presented with a special emphasis on the role of culture in international relations, e.g. the role of discourse and public opinion. In this episode hosted by Dr Outi Luova, Senior Instructor Jelena Gledić from the University of Belgrade, Serbia, highlights lessons for a resilient and sustainable future of China-Europe relations and the potential enlargement of the EU.

V nejnovějším díle sourozeneckého podcastu se bratři Novosadovi zabývají aktuálními masovými protesty, které už více než tři měsíce probíhají po celém Srbsku a šíří se i do okolních zemí západního Balkánu. Studentům vysokých škol se podařilo probrat společnost z dlouhodobé letargie a rozpoutat jedinečnou revoluci, s níž si dosud suverénní autokratický režim Aleksandra Vučiće neví rady. Toto téma, které se nejen v Česku, ale i v západních médiích bohužel málo akcentuje, probírají sourozenci spolu s balkanisty Pavlem Trojanem a Františkem Šístkem, kteří vzpomínají i na srbské demonstrace v roce 2000, které položily režim Slobodana Miloševiće. Prvního listopadu 2024 se na nádraží v Novém Sadu zřítila střecha na zrekonstruovaném železničním nádraží v Novém Sadu. Zemřelo pod ní patnáct lidí. Tato událost se stala katalyzátorem dlouhodobé frustrace srbské společnosti a vyústila v dnes už tříměsíční masové protesty proti systémové korupci a bezpráví, které desetiletí provázejí vládnoucí režim prezidenta Aleksandra Vučiće. Ačkoliv v Srbsku mají demonstrace silnou tradici, tyto protesty se od předešlých v mnohém liší. Do jejich čela se totiž postavili vysokoškolští studenti, jejichž odhodlání a zatím bezchybná strategie (ne)komunikace s vedením státu získávají sympatie napříč dosud rozdělenou společností. Podporuje je čím dál širší spektrum lidí a skupin, zatím největšího protestu v Novém Sadu se prvního února podle odhadů zúčastnilo přes 300 000 lidí. Vlna celonárodní solidarity atmosférou v mnohém připomíná českou sametovou revoluci. Bratři se svými hosty udávají celou situaci do kontextu, detailně osvětlují fungování a pozici dominantní vládnoucí Srbské pokrokové strany a jejího lídra Aleksandra Vučiće, dlouhodobou privatizaci veřejných institucí a jejich rozprodej zahraničním mocnostem, přebujelé korupční zakázky a všudypřítomný klientelismus. Uvádějí také konkrétní zájmy USA, Německa, Číny a Ruska v tomto prostoru a s tím spojené důvody Vučićovy pevné pozice v zahraničí. Pavel Trojan připomíná své zážitky z demonstrací proti Slobodanu Miloševićovi, František Šístek blíže vysvětluje nástup Aleksandra Vučiće k moci, Jakub přidává poznatky z terénu ze své aktuální cesty do Srbska a detailně popisuje zlomové momenty současného protestního hnutí, jeho fungování i hlavní cíle a požadavky. Na závěr probíhá diskuze nad možným řešením situace. Nabízely by se předčasné volby, jenže ty překvapivě nejsou cílem studentů. O co jim tedy jde především? Čím si získali takovou podporu? Můžou se stát inspirací, jak účinně bojovat proti populistům a autokratům také jinde v Evropě? A v čem je nová generace Srbů nová?

以下のようなトピックについて話をしました。 01. DeepSeekが低コストで高性能な推論モデルを公開 DeepSeekが2025年1月20日に公開した推論モデル「DeepSeek-R1-Zero」と「DeepSeek-R1」が、AIの開発に対する業界の見方を大きく変えました。これらのモデルはMITライセンスの下でオープンソースとして公開され、トレーニングコストがOpenAIの推論モデル「o1」の約3％程度だと伝えられています。 R1は、Mixture of Experts(MoE)アーキテクチャを採用したAIモデル「DeepSeek-V3-Base」をベースにしており、総パラメータ数は6710億、コンテキスト長は128Kです。特にコーディング、数学、ロジックの分野で高品質な結果を生み出すことが確認されています。 DeepSeekの革新的な点は、AI開発におけるブレークスルーを達成したことです。従来の大規模言語モデルが人間のフィードバックによる強化学習(RLHF)を用いていたのに対し、R1-Zeroは人間によるフィードバックを削除し、ほぼ強化学習(RL)のみでトレーニングを行いました。この新しいアプローチにより、モデルの性能と効率が大幅に向上しています。 DeepSeekの登場は、AI業界に大きな影響を与え、株式市場にも影響を及ぼしています。その低コストと高性能は、AI開発の新たな可能性を示唆しており、今後のAI技術の進化に大きな期待が寄せられています。 02. 準天頂衛星みちびき6号機を打ち上げ成功 2025年2月2日、宇宙航空研究開発機構（JAXA）と三菱重工業は、国産基幹ロケット「H3」5号機を種子島宇宙センターから打ち上げ、日本版GPS衛星「みちびき」6号機を軌道に投入することに成功しました。H3ロケットはこれで2号機以降、4機連続での打ち上げ成功を記録しています。 打ち上げ後、固体ロケットブースター「SRB-3」や第1段・第2段機体の分離が順調に行われ、約29分後に「みちびき」6号機が静止トランスファー軌道に投入されました。この衛星は、準天頂衛星システム「みちびき」の一部であり、位置情報や時刻情報を提供する社会インフラとして機能します。 今回の6号機は、既存の4機体制を7機体制に拡張するための追加3機のうちの1機目です。この拡張により、日本上空に常に4機以上の衛星が滞空することが可能となり、他国のシステムに依存せず「みちびき」単独での持続測位が実現します。また、新たな高精度測位システムの実証も行われる予定です。 将来的には、バックアップ強化のために11機体制への拡張が計画されており、1機が故障しても測位機能を維持できる体制を目指しています。この成功は、日本の宇宙技術と測位システムの自立性向上に大きく貢献するものです。 03. 小惑星と誤認されたテスラ車、宇宙で再発見 2025年1月2日、ハーバード・スミソニアン天体物理学センターの小惑星センターが新たな小惑星「2018 CN41」を発見したと発表しました。この天体は地球近傍天体として登録されましたが、後に小惑星ではなくイーロン・マスクのテスラ・ロードスターであることが判明し、登録が取り消されました。 この「小惑星」はトルコのアマチュア天文家が開発したソフトウェアを使って発見されました。天文家たちは軌道を計算し、地球に接近する可能性があると考えました。しかし、軌道の3D表示を見た際に、火星に向かう宇宙船の軌道に似ていることに気づきました。 調査の結果、この天体は2018年2月にSpaceXのFalcon Heavyロケットで打ち上げられたテスラ・ロードスターであることが判明しました。このロードスターには「スターマン」と呼ばれる宇宙服を着た人形が乗っており、当初は火星を目指していましたが、予想以上に加速して小惑星帯まで到達してしまいました。 この出来事は、地球の周回軌道を越えた範囲で運用される宇宙船の追跡と透明性の問題を浮き彫りにしました。専門家は、このような未追跡の物体が増えると、地球を危険な小惑星から守る取り組みや、小惑星の研究に支障をきたす可能性があると警告しています。 本ラジオはあくまで個人の見解であり現実のいかなる団体を代表するものではありません ご理解頂ますようよろしくおねがいします

Today's Story: Selective Retention Bonus List

Od začátku války na Donbase se už deset let běžně opakuje přirovnání, že k ní ani k ruské anexi Krymu by nedošlo, kdyby předtím nedošlo k jednostrannému vyhlášení samostatnosti Kosova na Srbsku, za které prý může Západ. Zároveň se dění na Kosovu hodnotí běžně jako protislovanské. To vše jsou přitom sice zažité, ale veliké nesmysly, protože jde o naprosto odlišné příběhy. Spletité, ale odlišné. Alespoň to vzkazuje posluchačům devětadvacáté epizody sourozeneckého podcastu Hej, Slované Václav Štěpánek – balkanista a vedoucí Ústavu slavistiky brněnské Filozofické fakulty Masarykovy univerzity. A protože vztah mezi Srby, kosovskými Srby a kosovskými Albánci je složitý, věnujeme kosovské otázce hned dvě epizody, aby v ní už nikdo nemohl tápat. V té první se dozvíme především všechno o tom, jak to začalo: tedy zevrubně probereme staré dějiny, třeba bitvu na Kosově poli a její následky. „Dění na Kosovu je střet dvou koncepcí: ta slovanská, neboli ta srbská, je založena na historickém právu. Vzpomíná se slavná minulost a historie. A na základě historie se transponuje do současnosti a tvrdí se, že tato oblast by měla být Srbů. A druhý princip je princip práva národa na sebeurčení. To je zase ten albánský princip, který praví, že my Albánci dnes máme v zemi většinu, my tady žijeme, takže historická podstata nás nezajímá,“ říká Václav Štěpánek. Problémy na Kosovu, tak jak je vnímáme dnes, vidíme podle něj asi sto padesát let. Zároveň dodává, že dnes operovat historickým právem v podstatě nejde – protože to by si každý mohl nárokovat území podle libosti z minulosti, kdy jeho stát byl největší, takže třeba Češi by si mohli požadovat kupříkladu italské Udine. Bitva na Kosově poli neboli konflikt mezi Osmany a Srby z roku 1389 dnes vnímáme jako zásadní okamžik slovanských dějin, jako bod, od něhož má slovanské obyvatelstvo na kosovské území nárok – ostatně proto tak zemi doposud také říkáme. Jenže bylo to tak? Ostatně víme vůbec, kdo tuto první bitvu na Kosově poli vyhrál? (V průběhu dalších staletí totiž následovaly, dokonce až do 19. století, ještě čtyři velké bitvy na zhruba témže místě.) Nebo to, co o ní dnes víme a co si předáváme dále v básních, románech, publicistice i politice, je výsledek literárních báchorek? Dávného mnišského mytizování jedné události, které se chytlo a po staletí rozvíjelo, až dnes vyjma historiků pouze málokdo tuší, že dějiny byly jednou opět složitější, než si běžně myslíme? Barvité vyprávění o Kosovu a jeho dějinách se postupně dostane až do dvacátého století, kde si uděláme přestávku – k současnosti se dostane až druhý kosovský díl. Ale i tak se ještě dozvíme, že z chudého kosovského území slovanské obyvatelstvo kvůli tíživému životu odcházelo, ale přitom pole bylo potřeba nadále obdělávat, a tak do Kosova začali z hor sestupovat albánští obyvatelé. Původně to byli křesťané, kteří poté, co přišli do Kosova, konvertovali k islámu. Dozvíte se ovšem i jiné perly: že například jedno z povstání kosovských Albánců proti Království Srbů, Chorvatů a Slovinců za první světové války vedla žena. Nebo že Kosovo bylo opakovaně místem inženýrských pokusů osidlovat území novým obyvatelstvem nebo to staré přesidlovat jinam. Napříkald k naplnění plánu vystěhovat po první světové válce kosovské Albánce do Turecka místo odtamtud odsunutých Řeků ovšem už nedošlo, jelikož zemřel nostiel této ideje, turecký prezident Atatürk. Dění na Kosovu zkrátka bylo a je velmi dobrodružné, nejednoznačné a vrstevnaté. Aneb konečně podcast, který vám ve věci udělá jasno tak, jako žádný jiný.

V Sasku se blíží zemské volby, které patrně budou převratné, jelikož v nich výrazně posílí strana Alternativa pro Německo (AfD). O trendu nadcházejících voleb není pochyb, bude se jen čekat na konkrétní čísla a výsledky. Přesto v Sasku existuje oblast, která volí jinak. Je jí katolická Horní Lužice, kde žije původní slovanské obyvatelstvo, národ Lužických Srbů. Proč volí jinak? Čím je to dáno? Jak vlastně Lužičtí Srbové smýšlejí o politice? O tom všem a mnohém dalším hovoří v jedenácté epizodě svého podcastu Hej, Slované bratři Lukáš a Jakub Novosadovi. Vysílá Rádio Prostor, na svých poslechových aplikacích včetně YouTube také Echo24. Najdete nás rovněž na Spotify. Na začátku chce Jakub vysvětlit po Lukášovi, co jsou to vlastně zemské volby a zda k nim v Česku máme ekvivalent. Kromě toho bude ozřejmeno, jak Sasko funguje v zahraničí, co je zač jeho Kontaktní kancelář a proč jste se nikdy nedozvěděli, že k nám na výjezdní zasedání může přijet celá vláda sousední země. Lukáš také přiblíží své vztahy s někdejším saským premiérem Stanisławem Tilichem a krátce shrne jeho kariéru, aby doložil, kam až to v současném Německu může politicky dotáhnout Lužický Srb a zda přitom smí dávat najevo své srbství, anebo zda ho musí spíše cudně skrývat a vystupovat jako „premiér všech“. Ostatně jaký vztah mají Němci, respektive Sasové k Lužickým Srbům? Co to znamená autochtonní menšina a stačí toto označení na to, aby měli Lužičtí Srbové v Německu ústavně uspokojující postavení? Na to vše Lukáš svému sourozenci odpoví a následně krátce vylíčí porevoluční lužickosrbské fungování v německé spolkové i zemské politice. Včetně takových paradoxů, jako je to, že lužickosrbský kandidát ve volbách klidně porazí předsedu saské AfD. Tato poznámka přivede sourozence k úvaze o německo-sasko-slovanské nevraživosti, o stále přítomném českém protiněmectví i o tom, proč to Lukáše otravuje nejen ve vztahu k Lužici. V další části starší bratr mladšímu líčí, proč je v Sasku na vzestupu neonacismus a jak se to odráží v Lužici. Následuje několik znepokojivých historek z běžného lužickosrbského života, ať už se týkají dětí, mládeže nebo dvou učitelů, kteří se vloni snažili zabránit svým žákům o přestávkách ve škole hajlovat. Šokovaný Jakub tomu odmítá věřit a nutí Lukáše více a více vysvětlovat, jak je možné, že v Německu nacistické projevy dávno nejsou tabu. Lukáš se tedy pustí do exkurzí sociologických, ekonomických i vzdělávacích. Ostatně v jakém stavu je saské školství? Není jeho úroveň jednou z hlavních příčin napětí, které v Sasku sledujeme? Jak je na tom lužickosrbské školství v porovnání se saským? A jaká jsou jeho specifika? Třetí část Lukáš otevírá poznámkou, že Lužičtí Srbové budou v nadcházejících zemských saských volbách patrně znovu volit CDU neboli stranu, která jim doposud nabízela jakž takž bezpečné životní a kulturní zázemí. Zároveň to znamená, že původní slovanské obyvatelstvo Saska volí a znovu bude volit jinak než skoro celý zbytek země. Není to výjimka, nýbrž setrvalý trend – vždyť naposledy Lužičtí Srbové ukázali svou vůli jít proti zbytku saské společnosti na jaře při volbách evropských. Také teď Lukáš předjímá, že obce, kde hlavní živel tvoří Lužičtí Srbové, budou modré, což znamená křesťanskodemokratické. Následně bratři rozebírají, proč mají Lužičtí Srbové rezervovaný vztah k AfD a dalším posilujícím stranám německého spektra, jako je například Aliance Sahry Wagenknecht. Lukáš přitom podotkne, že Dolnolužičtí Srbové v Braniborsku volí ještě jinak než Hornolužičtí Srbové v Sasku. Zároveň se snaží vyjádřit své pochopení pro lužickosrbskou volbu, objasňuje systém lužickosrbské společnosti v souvislosti s jejím fungováním na státní podpoře, sám ji ale problematizuje. Leckoho možná překvapí proč. Aneb konečně podcast, který každou epizodou dokazuje, jak barevný a nejednoznačný je svět Slovanů. X: http://twitter.com/echo24cz Facebook: http://twitter.com/echo24cz

Příprava na první kolo je ta nejdůležitější. Alespoň na tom se shodují v novém pořadu Mistři Fantasy redaktoři Bartoloměj Černík a Pavel Baláž, kteří budou trenéry iSport fantasy provádět nadcházející sezonou. V úvodním díle dávají své tipy na hráče a představují vlastní soupisky. „Kdo nemá Vlkanovu v sestavě za tuto cenovku, je blázen. Hradec je za mě černý kůň ligy,“ říká Baláž. Řeč byla i o nejdražších dostupných hráčích – Pavlu Šulcovi a Veljku Birmančevičovi. „Šulc v desítce nejkupovanějších hráčů není, Birmančevič tam je. Srb může být pro iSport fantasy něčím jako je Salah nebo Haaland pro fantasy Premier League,“ míní Černík.

The PM team are on the road again, joined by Mark Owens, they head off to Manchester for a weekend with The Steve Rothery Band, at the Band on the Wall! Listen in for reviews of both SRB gigs, interviews with Leon Parr, Martin Jakubski and Steve Rothery from the SRB and a chat with Mike Barton, on merch duties for the weekend.

Hlavní hvězda ligy. Baller. Veljko Birmančevič, opravdová přestupová bomba Sparty. A trefa, co potvrdila úspěch dlouhodobější cesty, kterou se letenský klub vydal. Zprvu totiž srbský hráč přišel z Toulouse na hostování, které na jaře Sparta stvrdila v permanentní přestup. “K dnešnímu dni, čtvrtek 9. května, je to nejlepší hráč FORTUNA:LIGY,” má jasno Michal Kvasnica v novém díle iSkautu.“Vůbec se nedivím, že na něj Sparta uplatnila opci, přišel ji dohromady zhruba na 80 milionů korun. Myslím, že už teď se to ukázalo jako dobrá investice - a ještě ukáže,” soudí Jiří Fejgl. “Sparta tenhle systém jede. Hancko, Haraslín, Vindahl, Kuchta… Je to chytré,” dodává.V čem tedy Sparta ukazuje cestu pro další velké transfery? Co jsou Birmančevičovy přednosti a slabiny? Chtěl by ho před angažmá ve Spartě i Jindřich Trpišovský do Slavie a mohl by ještě Srb přestoupit do top evropské soutěže? Celý díl iSkautu o Veljku Birmančevičovi najdete na liganaruby.cz.

On this week's show we compare Mini-LED vs OLED and we put a high end listening room based on products that were exhibited at this year's AXPONA show. We also read your email and look at the week's news. News: DirecTV and Dish Back Fubo in Its Spulu Antitrust Suit | Next TV Roku Upgrades Viewing Experience with New Features | TV Tech Hub: Smart TVs Now in Nearly 8 of 10 Homes | TV Tech Disney Plus Looking To Integrate Always-On Linear Channels Other: Credit cards abused again in second Roku hack affecting 576,000 - FlatpanelsHD NBCUniversal Launches Personalized, Hyperlocal Services via ATSC 3.0 | TV Tech Mini-LED vs OLED We are asked from time to time to recommend a particular TV or in some cases a technology. Right now, in our opinion, the best TV technology is OLED. But is it really the best overall? Let's take a look at OLED vs mini-LED in six important criteria. Sharpness and Resolution: Both OLED and Mini-LED TVs typically offer 4K resolution, with some models supporting higher resolutions. Therefore, in terms of sharpness and resolution, it's a tie between OLED and Mini-LED. Black Levels: OLED TVs excel in producing true blacks by individually turning off pixels. Mini-LED displays have not completely achieved this level of per-pixel control. In this aspect, OLED emerges as the winner for its superior black levels. Brightness and Contrast: OLED TVs offer deep blacks for infinite contrast ratio, while Mini-LED TVs can achieve higher brightness levels. Mini-LED takes the lead in brightness, while OLED wins in terms of contrast ratio. Color Quality: OLED TVs typically exhibit excellent color quality, often surpassing 100% of the sRGB color gamut. Although Mini-LED TVs may not reach these levels, this is more due to other factors like color filters rather than the Mini-LED technology itself. The winner in color quality is OLED. Viewing Angles: OLED TVs generally have wider viewing angles compared to LCD TVs, including those using Mini-LED technology. While Mini-LED TVs can vary based on the type of display used, OLED usually outperforms them in terms of viewing angles. Size and Price: In terms of size, both OLED and Mini-LED TVs are available in various sizes to suit different preferences. However, traditionally, OLED TVs have been more expensive compared to Mini-LED TVs, which could be a consideration for some buyers. Price and size considerations may vary based on individual preferences and budgets. So which one wins? It's our opinion that OLED has the absolute best picture but mini-LED is very close and unless you are looking at them side by side you won't notice. It really comes down to cost and since you can buy some really big mini-LED TVs for a quarter of the price, we give the nod to mini-LED. AXPONA 2024 AXPONA 2024 wrapped up last week. What is AXPONA you might ask? From their website:  AXPONA is a three-day experience featuring multiple hotel floors packed with over 200 listening rooms. The Expo Hall featuring The Record Fair, The Ear Gear Experience, and seminars. Whether you're a serious audiophile, a newcomer to high-end audio or simply a music lover, you'll find everything you need to immerse yourself in your favorite sounds.  It's very similar to “The Show” that we have out here in CA every year. This year it will be June 7-9 in Costa Mesa so come out and let's all go! While AXPONA exhibited products that most of us can buy, there are some that, quite frankly, are priced for people fly on their own jets. They probably don't even listen to podcasts, so let's make fun of them!! Kidding of course. Today, our very rich uncle who has $150,000 laying around has asked us to put a system together so he can listen to his extensive vinyl collection! Transrotor Tourbillon FMD The Tourbillon FMD is a premium turntable model with high-end features designed to deliver exceptional performance in the audio playback experience.  The Transrotor Tourbillon FMD stands out as a top-of-the-line turntable with innovative features and premium construction materials aimed at audiophiles seeking unparalleled sound quality and precision in vinyl playback. With its advanced FMD bearing technology, dual tone arm support, and included accessories, it offers a premium and comprehensive audio experience for discerning enthusiasts in the high-end turntable market. $60K with Cartridge Fern and Roby Amp No. 2 Amp No. 2 is our second collaboration with Michael Bettinger who has been designing and building amplifiers for nearly 40 years. Integrated amps make building a great high fidelity audio system easy. Our goal in this project was to produce something that will turn your living room into the best listening room possible. Fewer components, cables, and cost, but delivering world class audio into your home. $8500 (Add $350 if you want Isolation Feet)  Acora SRB Reference Loudspeaker Acora Acoustics loudspeakers are constructed using hand crafted, specially treated granite enclosures. The rigidity of granite far exceeds that of traditional particle board or wood enclosures. One of the benefits of this is as the SRB's drivers move to push air / create sound, the enclosure isn't absorbing this energy and dulling or smearing the sound. Another benefit of the Acora enclosure is it does not need internal bracing to “stiffen” the enclosure. This means no additional reflections inside the enclosure that will vibrate the low frequency driver and smear the sound. The SRB also utilizes world class drivers and a hand built crossover network, however the real secret to the Acora Sound is that you only hear these, not the enclosure. Sensitivity 86.5 db  Frequency Response 43Hz - 35KHz  58 lbs each $37,000 pair

The Underground Taxi by Maurice Hall BuchananA taxi driver named Harry Johnson, is about to be forced into bankruptcy when a beautiful mysterious African woman offers him a substantial amount of money to drive her from Miami to Boston. He accepts her offer only to find that two-gun wielding Africa men, members of Idi Amin notorious SRB were pursuing her, along with the police, FBI, and a private investigator. To Harry's dismay, he found that he got more than what he bargained for.As an author, Maurice published a screenplay named Amos and Red Deer and entered it in several contests.  He wrote his first book The Underground Taxi which is published by Gotham Books.  He was married for 26 years raising three children, all who are now adults.  As a child Maurice used to play with toys making up stories as he played along.  He later drew comic books making up storylines and characters.  When in high school his classroom was given an assignment of writing a play as a project.  He jumped at the opportunity and wrote a play named Trapped In A Corner.  The teacher loved it and gave him three A's.  He printed copies and had the play performed in class.  Born into a Jamaican family, hard work was always stressed in the household, and writing was just something to do as a hobby.  He wrote so many stories that a friend advised him that he should publish them.  He heeded his advice and published his first screenplay, Amos And The Red Deer.  He is about to publish Three Spades And A Joker, Straight In The Army, and The Reluctant Informer.  He is now residing in Boca Raton, Florida with his pet dog Ralphie.https://www.amazon.com/Underground-Taxi-Maurice-Hall-Buchanan/dp/B0C9L9YZ48/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1S10XZ9XQ3U6K&keywords=maurice+buchanan+the+underground+taxi&qid=1690418987&s=books&sprefix=maurice+buchanan+the+underground+taxi%2Cstripbooks-intl-ship%2C300&sr=1-1https://booksbymauricebuchanan.com/http://www.GothamBooksInc.com   http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/10523goth1.mp3   

Vladimír Dzuro působil více jak devět let v týmu pověřeném vyšetřováním válečných zločinů Srbů v Chorvatsku a západní Bosně. Z toho důvodu kniha pojednává převážně o zločinech Srbů na území Chorvatska, Bosny a Hercegoviny. Letos mu na toto téma vyšel komiks a byl natočen i film. Válečné zločiny jsou skutky, kdy se k sobě válčící strany chovají krutě. Přitom jde o národy, které spolu žily léta v míru, de facto v jednom státu. Jak lze nastavit, aby se ze sousedů a ze známých stali nepřátelské entity? Válka není jenom boj mezi vojsky. Především se dějí zločiny proti civilnímu obyvatelstvu. Co vede ozbrojené jednotky k tomu, že zabíjí nevinné, včetně dětí? O tom všem si povídáme s bývalým vyšetřovatelem válečných zločinů v bývalé Jugoslávii.

Join Dave and Nick as they talk about cyber security and keeping yourself safe. They go over some of the steps that they take for their clients to make sure that they maintain safety. Watch on YouTube HERE As you age, there is a real threat of being targeted for different kinds of risks, scams, and abuses out there that are targeted toward the older population. It can be difficult to have these chats it's important to know. SRB goes through Cyber security training as a team every year. Our team also did an elder abuse program that covered things like how to spot, prevent and help with financial abuse. We decided it was an important topic to share on our podcast because we want folks to know what we're doing and what they might be able to do. Elder abuse doesn't just touch us and our clients. Many people are touched by it by the fact that they're taking care of elderly loved ones. Younger people can also be vulnerable to scams just because they hit at the right time and in the right context. You can get caught off guard by something that maybe in other circumstances they would have said, “Oh no, that doesn't seem right.” Scams to Watch Out For: Emails asking for money Subscription renewals for things you didn't subscribe to (or already deleted) Virus software companies trying to get you to sign up for their software Emails that impersonate your bank or bank statements People stealing checks out of mailboxes Grandkids calling their grandparents from jail requesting money (it's not really them) If someone calls you with a sense of urgency and encourages you to do something within the next few minutes, it could be a scam. Emails that are poorly worded Listen to the full episode for more scams and ways to avoid them. Please share with friends and family who need to be aware of these scams so they don't fall victim.

Join Nick as he chats with the SRB summer intern, Cade Cambell, while Dave is on vacation. Watch it on YouTube HERE Cade is a senior at Michigan State studying finance and minoring in insurance and risk management with a second minor in financial planning and wealth management. He grew up in a little town in the middle of Wyoming called Riverton, in the heart of the Rocky Mountains.  Cade is a big outdoorsman who loves to hunt, fish, hike, and just about anything outside. He found himself at Michigan State through a scholarship program and he loves it out here. Nick: So tell us a little bit about the wealth management program at Michigan State and how you got interested in pursuing that. Cade: "The wealth management program is really cool. So Professor Steve started that program. I don't know what it's been four or five years now. I think and it's and it's really cool because it's aligned with the CFP. So the certified financial planning standards for their education requirement. As you progress throughout the program if you pass all the classes it satisfies those education requirements. So it's really a good way to get a jump start on a financial planning career. There are not a lot of schools that offer that." Check episodes with two of our past interns.

Enter the Ur-Guest, the man who's performance in Lehman Trilogy made Jonny fall back in love with theatre, the OG inspiration for Stage Door Jonny and one of the undisputed greats of the modern stage- Sir Simon Russell Beale. It feels entirely fitting to end this inaugural series of SDJ with a chat with SRB, an actor who has performed more great roles than even Wikipedia can count. If you want to know how palatial his dressing room at The Bridge theatre was while he was playing the title role in John Gabriel Borkman, whether he has sacrificed love for his career, who made his very first costume, the role of sniffing in his famous collaborations with Sam Mendes, how many pints can get him to bed before most of the audience and how certain parts get him to a magical place beyond caring, this is the episode for you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Dave and Nick are joined by Ashley Sajor, Associate Financial Planner here at Shotwell Rutter Baer. Ashley started her career at SRB as an intern and after graduating from MSU became a full-time employee. Check out Ashley's previous visit to our show in the episode titled, Helping Your College Student Budget. Today, we are exploring the concept of a first-time home buyer savings account for the state of Michigan. Which actually was passed into law around June of 2022, so we're a little over six months into this new home buyer savings account. Ashley and Nick have been working on researching it so they can provide the details in this episode. Their information includes some strategies you might consider.   What is a First Time Homebuyer's Savings Account? The first-time homebuyer savings account is a tax incentive savings account dedicated towards the purchase of a first home in Michigan. A first-time home buyer is anybody who has not owned a principal residence in the past three years. So you could rent but as long as you haven't owned your own home in the past three years you can count towards this savings account can. It can be in your own name or in the name of your beneficiary. As long as the beneficiary is the person who qualifies for the credits and has not owned their residence in the past three years. The savings account must be at an institution that's eligible to do business in Michigan. You can claim an annual tax deduction on your yearly contributions and tax-free growth on any gains in the account. As long as it is intended for, or used purchase of the first -time home. Twelve other states also have this but Michigan is one of the best so far for tax benefits. It's similar to the 34 Michigan education savings plans for this account. Listen to the entire episode as they talk about strategies and go over some of the elements of how  these first-time homebuyers' savings accounts work. If you are interested in setting up one of these accounts or would like more information, please contact us at 517-321-4832 or email us at info@srbadvisors.com.

Barikády na kosovsko-srbské hranici byly rozebrány. Protesty tamějších Srbů policií potlačeny. Vyhráno ale není. Napětí, vyvolané údajně recipročním rozhodnutím Prištiny neuznávat dokumenty pocházející z Bělehradu, trvá dál.

Vláda o tom sice oficiálně vyjednává, ale podpora ze strany obyvatel stále klesá. Co Srbsku brání stát se součástí Unie, proč se mění postoj samotných Srbů a proč by naopak měla chtít sedmadvacítka, aby bylo Srbsko na její straně, je tématem pořadu Víta Pohanky.

Teddy Goes to the USSR explored American tourism, KGB surveillance, consumerism, race, and daily life through Teddy Roe's trip to the USSR. And many of Teddy's observations were inevitably informed by the Cold War and American tropes. So, what to make of Teddy's journey and what it says about Soviet life? In this final episode, TGU host Sean Guillory and historian Leah Goldman highlight key moments in the series to tease out the contradictions, and reflect on America's and the Soviet Union's entangled relationship.

American tourists expected few chances to meet Soviet people. You'd only see what Soviet officials wanted to show you. Touring the USSR, many assumed, was nothing more than a front row seat at a big show. And real Soviet life was hidden under layers upon layers of propaganda. So, if you wanted to see the truth of Soviet life—avoid officials and seek out “regular people.” Teddy wanted to seek out “regular” Soviet people. And he had a few chances to visit people's homes. What did Teddy discover about “regular Soviet life and people” as a result? And what did it say about the Soviet system as a lived experience?

Teddy had few “official” meetings in the USSR. A factory here. A collective farm there. Maybe a school or two. And there was one question Teddy's hosts always asked: “Why are you still lynching Blacks?” American racism was a global issue during the Cold War. And pointing to it was a strike at America's Achilles heel. Soviet media devoted a lot of time to the Civil Rights Movement. And Teddy arrived in the USSR just when Martin Luther King was assassinated. So, just what was this Soviet concern for American Blacks? Was it merely a whataboutism, a way to deflect American criticism of Soviet life? Or was there something more to it? Teddy Goes to the USSR is written, edited and produced by Sean Guillory.

Join me in welcoming vince warnock Trina: So whew!, all right, this conversation is just amazing. I wanted to ask you. A couple of things we haven't gotten to either of the two things that we said we were going to talk about, but we talked to Vince Warnock: them so much gold. Yeah. As soon as you and I started talking, this is going to be like five hour long episode. Trina: Ah, all right. So I want to pop in and talk about some of the mental health challenges that being an entrepreneur can present because and I know that one of them, which is a combination of mental health challenges is imposter syndrome. And that's one of the things that I'm passionate about. And I know you are too , Vince. Vince Warnock: Yeah, no, I always say imposter syndrome is my old, old friend. And yeah, for those. I'm pretty sure every entrepreneur [00:03:00] knows what imposter syndrome is, but every now and then you find some of the doesn't and it is just that feeling. Isn't it of, I don't belong here. I don't deserve what this is and people are gonna find out I'm a complete, and utter fraud. They're going to find out I'm making this up as they go along. And when you grow up in a family where you don't have role models, you don't have people like anybody. Basically, when I was a kid, anyone who had success was the enemy because my parents would look at anybody that had made money and go, well, they obviously don't deserve that money. We do, but we never get the opportunity, which is a really unhealthy view around money and success and Trina: things. I think it is quite common. Sadly, I think you're right. Yeah. But it was, it was really difficult growing up in there. And I had to break through that myself. And as a result, anytime that you succeed, you feel like you don't belong there. I feel like I'm an imposter of these scenarios. And I remember early on I, I was I was quite young back in the day, as my son says, when it's black and white, you know? But I went to, I went to gets to this business breakfast and they had one of the heads of Adobe speaking, there, for Oceania [00:04:00] and, and he was going to be talking about his journey and how success comes, all this kind of stuff. And I'm like, oh my goodness , first of all, I had no money. Right. I was real young businessperson. I had no money whatsoever. So I'm going somewhere with this free food and free drink. I'm like, yes, sign me up. I'm going to eat and drink everything, but also get to hear from this legend. And I'm like, right. So I knew if I'm going to this business breakfast I'm going to have to dress up. I didn't own a suit. I, in fact, basically. Jeans or track pants and a t-shirt was pretty much all I ever owned. So I went down to a Goodwill shop and down to a secondhand shop and I found a suit there for $10. It was disgusting. It was gray. Like this light shiny gray, it was double breasts. I had no idea what fashion was back then. Um, my daughter would argue, I still don't. So I bought this suit there. It was ill fitting. Like honestly, the sleeves went down to my lower knuckles. It was, it was horrible. And I had a long hair at the time, which I turned up at, tied up in a ponytail. So nothing about this scream, success or, or fashion or anything whatsoever. But I turned up at the [00:05:00] Event and the second I walked down and I went, what am I doing here? I stand out like a sore thumb. I don't belong here. Everybody else looks like they do belong here. I sat at this table that were allocated for, I got my food and everything, and I was enjoying the food and I thought, you know what, screw it. I'm just going to enjoy the food. And obviously this is not for me, but you know, I'm going to do this. And I remember looking around the table and in my mind, like picture it right now. It just looks like everybody's wearing Armani suits or Tom Fords. Everyone looked distinguished and I'm here in this tacky, shiny gray piece of crap. So I'm like, no. So I felt like a complete outsider. And anyway, the speaker got up and he shared his journey and, oh my goodness. It was inspiring. Like really was. And I just loved it. I'm like, I want to be the sky I want to, I want his life. Why can't I have that? There's a new company, cars a brand new Audi and this is way back then, and I was just like, oh man. And at the end of his presentation, he went around to every table and he asked the same question, which has, have you got any questions? And I heard him a couple tables away and I'm like, right. And I remember this, I can still picture it. This conversation right [00:06:00] here. My brain goes, OK, Vinny,, listen up. You have a one shot man. One shot to ask something intelligent to at least like, look like you're partially belong here. And then we got one shot. You got one shot. That's don't let me down. I won't let you down. I will leave that. Okay. Yeah. I turned around and realize he's standing right next to me. And he goes, have you got any questions? And then my mouth does this thing where I just speak words. And then my brain kicks in afterwards and I just went, oh, at what point did you know, you'd made it? And my brain just went you moron. And I looked around the table and there's a lot of people rolling their eyes, like, amateur question. And I was like, ah, damn it. And he just turned around and he shocked me. Just said, actually, that's a very good question. Knowing what my brain was like, walking out the door, just went, wait, what? Come back. And he said, I'm going to let you in on a little secret. And the moment you hear that from someone successful. You're like, if I'm hearing a secret from someone successful, I'm writing this stuff down. So I grabbed my peanut paper and he told me, he goes, I've got this morning routine. I go through events and I'm like, I've heard that morning routines are really important. So I started writing down every word out of his mouth. He gets [00:07:00] every morning I get up deliberately early and I'm like, Ooh, I like this deliberately early. And he says, ah, I get out of bed. And I go to the bathroom. I said, interesting, not the kitchen straight to the bathroom. Gotcha. And he goes, I fill up the sink with cold water and I'm like, Hmm. So I ask him what temperature exactly is already in cold water. Yes. Yeah. And I fill out the single cold water. I splashed that water on my face. I look in the mirror and I go, ha today's the day they find out you're a fraud. And I went, what? And he goes, I've never felt like a success. I've never felt like I fit in that's. He said most of us, he indicated around the table. He said, most of us feel the exact same. And I looked at these people that I felt like I didn't belong with a lot of the, all these people that I was looking up to essentially at this table. And they're all nodding as well. And I was like, oh my goodness. And that's when I realized a couple of things. First of all, we're all as much of a hot mess as each other. And I realized that I had judged all these people as being these perfect business people, these like super successful people, but all of them [00:08:00] felt like they didn't belong. What's up with that. And that made me also realize that actually exposing that thinking really helped me, but also, I mean, I had as much right to be at that table as everybody else. Um, now I'd love to say that that kind of cured imposter syndrome and everything. Obviously I struggled with that for the rest of my career. Even when I published my first book Trina, that was the emotional roller coaster I was talking about was I should've felt amazing publishing that book. Right. Vince Warnock: I poured my heart and soul and sweat and blood into that book. Trina: How'd you feel, instead? Vince Warnock: I was depressed. Because I went to the book launch, everyone said, don't do a book launch. I'm like, oh, I'm a Marketer, hold my beer. So went into this book, launch, got a hundred people there to sign copies. It was an amazing atmosphere. It was a beautiful event. Everyone was so supportive, but people kept telling me I can't wait to read the book and that stage. Yeah. And I felt very vulnerable and very exposed. And I really, Trina: You write a book, then think...Oh shit, they might read it. Vince Warnock: I know, I know. I know. So I went to bed that night. I should have been, cause I'm a high extrovert when I'm around that many [00:09:00] people, I should be buzzing all night, but no, I was, I couldn't sleep in the bad way. And I had these conversations going over and over my head saying, who do you think you are? What makes you think you have the right to write about what makes you think anyone wants to read this rubbish ? In fact, they're going to read it and think what an amateur. So in the morning I made a dumb decision. I decided that I was going to sabotage myself. Because I had lined up interviews with Forbes, with CIO magazine Diginomica they all wanted to profile me in my book and I'm like, ah, so I contact them all and said, look, super appreciate it. But I'm way too busy at the moment, which was a lie I could have made it. I was really busy, but I could have made the time for this. And I went back, I didn't talk about it on social. I turned down any press. I just didn't want to talk about my book anymore. And it wasn't until I got called out by one of my mentors. And he's the type of mentor by the way that he doesn't call you. You've got to book time with him. But he called me out of the blue and he said, look, I'm just checking in on you. How's the book sales going? I told him, he was like, oh, okay, good numbers. But I haven't seen [00:10:00] anything at the events. Like you've gone down, there's no social posts. It's no press what's going on. And I said, oh, you know, it's all good. I'm just relying on word of mouth. Cause I'm so busy. And he goes, yeah, No he called me out, but he said to me like, now this is a guy, by the way, who's an eight times best-selling author and I'm not doing an Amazon business. I'm talking New York times bestselling author. Right. Every book he puts out there just goes ballistic. And I've, I've really, really like this. Guy's a legend. And he, he said to me, I'm going to tell you the process. I go through every single time I publish a book and I'm like, oh, okay. And then you just relayed my story back to me the same, self-doubt the same Imposter syndrome, the same everything I'm getting, but that doesn't make sense. Cause you're so successful. And he goes, I never feel like I'm successful. And that's when I realized that talking about this as really, really important, this is why I'm writing a book on it at the moment is actually the more we talk about an imposter and the more we shine light on it, more we realize something and that's something.  Why Imposter Syndrom isn't a "Bad" thing...--- Vince Warnock: That it's not actually a bad thing. And this is a crazy thought, but bear with me when I say this imposter [00:11:00] syndrome in itself, isn't actually bad. If you look at what it is, all it is is your brain going, Hey Trina, Hey Vince, Hey listeners. You're outside of your comfort zone right now. You're in fact, you're way out of your comfort zone and I want to keep you safe. So I'm going to use fear to get you come running back to me so I can wrap you up in my arms and keep you nice and comfy and cozy. Now the problem with that is we're entrepreneurs. You know, when we talk about the fact that we're worried that we're making this up as, we go along, guess what? We are making them up as we go along, this is exactly what we should be doing. We should be out of our comfort zone. Trina: Oh my God. I absolutely love this. And it is absolutely true. We are a little bit of the imposter because we're making, we're creating something that hasn't been created before. Vince Warnock: And that's a good thing. Yeah. But we don't get breakthrough in your comfort zone. You don't get success and prosperity and your comfort zone, you get it outside of there. So when you can recognize that, that's when that's, when something interesting happens, because you realize that imposter syndrome itself is just a bunch of signals from your brain to [00:12:00] say, you're outside of your comfort zone. So in other words, it's your brain go, Hey, guess what? You're exactly where you need to be. Well done, and you get to choose what to do, what you want with that information. So you can either choose to do what I did, which is sabotage myself and go, okay, I'm going to run from those feelings or you get to reframe it and go, you know what brain really appreciate you. I appreciate you telling me I'm exactly where I need to be. I know you worried about this, but you know what? I've got this I'm good at this. It's okay. So hi, honestly, imposter syndrome strikes every entrepreneur, unless you're a sociopath and then you're probably okay. Trina: Or very new. I remember being very new and just not knowing. Wasn't I'm using air quotes, listeners, what isn't supposed to be possible, and I'm going to do, and people saying it's not possible. It's like, but I'm doing it. It's actually happening. I wasn't already, pre-programmed pre programmed that it wasn't [00:13:00] supposed to get done. And so then you get some more experience under the belt and you realize that, Hey, there's this entrepreneurial thing and I can do it. And, but now, you know, The trip wires and the falls and the, and the scary things and what could actually happen if you fail and then what could possibly happen if you succeed. And that's scary too. Vince Warnock: Well, you know what it's like? Cause I was talking about this concept of curiosity, which is one of the superpowers of every entrepreneur. But we are born curious, we're born without limits. If you think about it, right when we were a kid and anyone who's a parent knows this, every question when you get, why, why, why, why, why until you like, ah, because I said so, but they born naturally curious the problem with it is if we get it beaten out of us and what, by that, I mean, we get to the point where we go. If I ask a question about that, someone's going to judge me on that. Think you probably should know that by now or someone's going to go, why you dumb? Trina: And they're going to ask that question because either they don't know [00:14:00] themselves and they can't answer the question or they're intimidated because. They have their own fears. They have their own lack of understanding of how important they are or how valuable they are. Vince Warnock: I said, I still remember Trina. So I used to work at a not-for-profit called education in New Zealand and the government looked at it and went, Hey, you guys are just smashing it with all the money we give you, but we've got these government departments that are failing with the money we give them. So we're going to, we're going to bind you all together and create what's called a crown agency, which is a new government department here. And I'm like, wait, I now work for government. Oh man. But we're bringing these companies together and we didn't have an IT person there, but I was the person who knew how to turn on the computer. So even though I'm the marketing guy, I was also the proxy IT guy. So I'm sitting in this room for these super nerdy IT people, and I'm a nerd myself. But they were talking about these systems and these things that we need to set up in a new environment because we've got a new building, we've got to bring all the computers in and they were talking about this SRB, [00:15:00] something, something, something system. And I'm, I'm no idea what that is. So I asked the question, I said, oh, sorry, can someone explain to me what the SRB system is? You all keep saying, we need this, but I don't know what it actually does. And around the room that everybody did the same thing. They'll roll their eyes and go, oh, like you don't know. And I'm like, I'm sorry, guys. I didn't grow up in your environment. You know, I'm, I'm actually a marketing guy. I'm fulfilling this roles. I'm here, as part of this. So you're going to have to work with me here. Just, I know I'm dumb around this, but, and they were like, oh, well, let's see. So what does it actually do? Art? It's hard to explain. Well, humor me explain it, no, not a single person and funniest part of it. It was something that this project group for the last 10 years, every time they set up a new agency or set up a new thing, we're bringing the system with it because obviously we need to pay for that. We need to bring it on board, but no one had actually used it for the last 10 years. They were just implementing it to all these organizations and it had no function, but no one knew that. And nobody questioned it. Took it dumb, guy coming in there going, I don't know what I'm doing then, then. [00:16:00] Maybe we don't actually need this. So, oh, it was the best feeling ever. Honestly, Trina: the curiosity, the beginner's mind because frequently we have our habits of acting our habits of believing. This is what has always been done in business or what has always been done in my life. This is how I've always done it. That's not a good enough answer anymore. Especially not if you want something different than what you already have. Vince Warnock: Yeah. Oh, you've just got to get curious honestly, and not just in business as well. I genuinely do believe. That if we can get curious in every aspect of our life, we're just going to become better people. And if you look at, I mean, the world's a mess in the moment. If we get really honest about it, the world's a mess. You got pandemics everywhere. You've got, political and social divides. You've got people who don't want to talk to others. But if we got really curious and tried to understand people, try to ask questions that would normally embarrass ourselves. Like, I don't understand why that is, please explain then honestly, you will [00:17:00] start to grow as an individual. And I, I remember this is something that from my childhood where, so growing up in an abusive house, School for me was a happy place, right? So it was a place where I was always, I was safe until I got to that age 11. It was quite a pivotal year for me. Then I went to a transitional school. It's called an intermediate, which has just two years, 11 and 12, before you go off to high school. And I'm at this intermediate and I encountered something in the classroom that I've never come across before, other than at home. And that was a bully. And this guy made my life hell for two years, I had no safe space anymore. I was tormented at home. I was tormented at school. I was, I didn't even want to exist. I thought it was an alien for a long time. I thought somehow someone's going to come and rescue me and take me off the stupid planet. It was horrible. But then when I got to age , 12 were in their last year intermediate or found out that he was going to a different high school and I'm like, yes, I am free. So I went to mine, he went to his, there was all good. Never had to see him again in my life, but also realize I was sick of being a victim. And I was [00:18:00] sick of people being able to take advantage of me. So I threw myself into learning how to box and handling, learning how to do martial arts and do that for a number of years. And I would train every single day. And I wasn't, I wouldn't say I'm any good at it, but enough to be able to defend myself. Definitely. Yeah. And age I think it was just about 17 I'm at school and I found out he got transferred back to my school. And I'm like, oh my goodness. I had seen every eighties movie. I'd seen all the revenge of the nerds, all these things about the underdog. Finally coming out on top of like, this is going to be a glorious day. I could play it out of my head. I knew what was going to happen and sure enough, he walks past me and I'm like, so I yelled his name and a few expletives and I knew what was going to happen. He turned around, he took a swing at me and I'm like nope to another swing at me I'm like "Ha, ha, ha!", and then finally I laid him out. I, and I'm not a violent person at all. In fact, I abhore violence, but I hit him, knocked him out. He was on the ground unconscious. And this moment where the underdog finally came down on top of him, like, yes, except I felt terrible. [00:19:00] Yeah. And I remember suddenly finding myself in the principal's office, which funny enough is what happened when you fight and I'm there with the principal and he turns to me and he said, look, do you know why he got transferred to the school? And I said, no, I don't care. I'm trying to be all staunch. You know, I'm not very good staunch person, "I don't care". And he goes, well, you probably should care. I mean, oh. And he said he started explaining this, this guy's back story in his life. And he said, look, he grew up in an abusive household, I'm thinking Yeah same. So what, he goes so much so that his dad used to beat him, his mum and his sister every day, since he was a baby. And recently what happened was the father beat the mother so badly in front of the two children that she actually passed away. So he murdered the mom in front of the two of them now, rightfully he got arrested and he went to jail, which is great. And they went to stay with an auntie and uncle and their, and the auntie and uncle were closer to our school. And that's when he got transferred there. And I was like, but I didn't know that. And he goes, no. And I wouldn't expect you to know that Vince, he goes, but funny enough of all the people that I thought might [00:20:00] understand what he went through. And all the people that might've been able to actually talk to them about that you were the one. And that's when I had this big revelation that I'm not the hero in the story. I'm not the underdog coming out on top. And by the way, all those eighties movies lied to us. Like they are horrible movies. But an extra fact, I'm the villain of this story because I'm the one person that had the opportunity now, not, I'm not saying I would have turned his life around anything. He may not have chosen to talk to me about these things, but I had the opportunity to be there for him. If I had taken the time to try and understand why he behaves the way he does, why he was doing what he does. And that's when I realized we just have to understand each other, we have to get super curious and in doing so, by the way, your businesses will grow, your connections will grow. You will understand people a lot more deeply. You understand yourself more deeply. You'll just be a better human being. So we just have to do that. Trina: Amen and amen, Vince, you're speaking, you're speaking the truth.[00:21:00] When you work on yourself, when you know why, when you go into the depths and you understand yourself more and how you respond and know that you're safe, you have the ability to be curious and to ask and to stop mind reading, because it's not mind reading, you're actually putting thoughts into your, putting your thoughts and your thinking. Other people are thinking your thoughts and they're not, and, and when we to pull it back to imposter syndrome, I think we often go into a room or an environment or a niche thinking everybody already knows what we know. And we know such a small portion of. Yep. When instead what it, we know we have like this vast well of knowledge and we know a little bit about everything and everybody knows a little bit about what we [00:22:00] have, but there's the magic that, that you bring to your industry, whatever that is. Vince Warnock: I'll tell you something I found interesting, Trina. So getting recognized by Adobe as one of the top 50 marketers is an interesting thing. When you suffer from imposter syndrome, by the way, because I'm sitting there again, I could list, I could run a list of a hundred people, more talented than me. What are you on about? And then they, so how it kind of played out was Adobe had this big conference, they asked me to speak at it and I said, yep. So they're going to fly me to San Francisco business class, five star hotel, all the whole shebang. And I went, No, I can't do that. I'll come and speak at your conference, but I'll pay my own way because I was chief marketing officer. I didn't want anyone to think there's conflict of interest. Luckily Cigna found out about it and they're like, this is a massive opportunity. We'll pay for it. I'm like, yes, back to business class. I couldn't justify it otherwise. Yeah. They adamant with me. You have to come and speak at this conference. I'm like, yeah. Okay, chill. I'm going to be there. So finally I get over to this conference and they, the way they structured it, they had 25 keynotes plus what they call celebrity [00:23:00] keynotes. So the celebrities were like Jamie Fox. They had. Flo rider, some Olympic athletes, and this is amazing. You get to hobnob with all these people. It's like, this is awesome. Every one of my heroes, I realize those 25 keynotes I'm to me, I'm the one that stands out here. I'm the, I'm the sore thumb, because I had Brian solace and Henry I think Seth Goden was it. Incredible speakers. I'm like, this is going to be awesome. I get to hear them all. And then we got there and then they turned around that day, they opened up the conference and then the CEO came out and he's like, welcome to the conference, blah blah. And he said, we've got a very special thing that we're launching here because there's, there's a reason that we've got these 25 people as the keynotes. And I'm like, huh. And he goes, because these are part of our new program where we recognize the top 50 marketers in the world. We've chosen the top 25 of those, but I'm like, oh, there must be 25. And me and I really, my brain did not cope. It really didn't cope with this very well at all. I was really, I was struggling with this whole concept, but then it got even worse because he goes, and I really want to highlight three of those that I think [00:24:00] are challenging the industry in the right way. And he goes in the first, it was all the way from New Zealand. I'm like, oh, another Kiwi. And then suddenly I see my face on the screen. That Kiwi looks exactly like me and then my name come up, knowing what the hell he's got the same name as me. Like my brain's just disengaging, but it was because of the work I've done around morality and ethics, ethics to marketing, and actually challenging the industry to be decent custodians of care, you know, for, for people that we market to. And I'm like, oh man. So some at this conference, I'm getting recognized, I'm struggling with this, but I got to go out to dinner with all of my heroes. I got to hear them speak. And it was, it was better than I even thought. Like honestly, Brian solace blew my mind and handy was just one of the sweetest people ever. Seth Goden, anytime you get to hear him, he's like, yeah so I'm just like, this is incredible. And I've got to go out to dinner with these people. And the more that you start talking to them, the more you start drinking lots of whiskey, by the way, love my whiskey also found that Americans I'm sorry, but Americans, a lightweight drinkers compared to Kiwis, putting it out there. We can drink all the top shelf stuff and you guys are on the floor, [00:25:00] sucking the air again. But the more, the more we were, well, we were getting into this center. It was just such a wonderful time. Some of the sweetest people ever, but they started opening up about their problems. And when they start talking about relationships, falling apart, struggling, financially, all these kinds of things were coming out and I'm going, but these are the people I look up to. These are the people that I want to be. And weirdly they're as much of a hot mess as I am. And that's what I realized. None of us are really that different. All of us are dealing with things. All of us have our own struggles and our own stuff. So why don't we just actually try and support each other? Why don't we talk about this kind of stuff? Why don't we be honest about I had this with a peer of mine in the UK. She was really struggling. At one point, she went kind of dark on me and I'm like, Hey, hang on, jump on zoom. She's not up to zoom. Haven't done my hair and makeup , and I'm like ha! Neither have I.. So I finally got her on a zoom call and she just burst into tears and said, look, I'm just really ashamed. I'm really embarrassed. I've been asked to put together this [00:26:00] this press release for Forbes. I've been asked to put together this quote for the slash corporate over here, but I procrastinated so much on both of those because I was overwhelmed that now I'm at the point where I'm really embarrassed and really ashamed. And so I'm avoiding all of the calls. I'm avoiding all of their emails. And I was like, oh man, I did that last week. And she was like, what I said, yeah, that happens to me all the time. But you know, I'm not surprised. And then we realized that by talking about it with each other, we remove the shame from it. We removed our assessment and we realize, hang on a minute, this can't be then uncommon. So we started asking other entrepreneurs and sure. Just about everybody started with struggles with the same thing, but we don't talk about it because of that embarrassment. So yeah, we're all, that was one of the questions that I was going to bring up eventually was because all of my questions have gone out the window. The conversation has been amazing. But absolutely imposter syndrome that the guilt for. Stepping away from what isn't working for you, [00:27:00] the embarrassment is like, you know, this, isn't making me happy and how does this, how dare this, where I am not make me happy, look at where I am. Anybody else who would be here would be thrilled. And if I gave this up, people would think I'm crazy. And then getting to the point of, being recognized or something and like thinking I, I can't even go forward with this and finding subtle ways to self-sabotage and not asking for help. I think this is a common thing. For pretty much everyone who has a certain degree of success. Yeah. You know, can I ask for help? Because if I ask for help, that means I'm not successful or that means that has some kind of story. Yeah, we totally need to reframe that though, because, and I know, you know this as well, but yeah, it's this weird mentality we have that if we, if we asked for help, we're failing or if we ask for help, then you know, we can't do an actual fact. I'll tell you now. And this is the weird [00:28:00] thing. So I always talk to people about getting a coach and yes, I'm biased because I am a coach and you're some awesome ones. So if you want one, Hey, you know, but the fact is everybody should, every business, every entrepreneur or business person should have a coach. And the reason is because guess what? All of the top coaches have coaches all the top entrepreneurs have coaches are. Yeah, exactly. Richard Branson has multiple coaches. I know for a fact, I know that Russell Brunson, he's got his own ones, I'm trying to think about the high profile names. I know Seth Godin has at least two mentors and two coaches that speak into his life. There's all these people that have. All the support. And yet we think if we do that for ourselves, it makes us less, or it takes away from us the best entrepreneurs, the most successful people surround themselves with those that can help and ask for that help, which means we need to reframe asking from help, asking for help is weakness or failure. And actually as a success, in fact, we should be asking for it more often and getting advice more often as well. I agree. [00:29:00] I agree. Nobody has nobody is an island. It was a cliche. When you look at the most successful people, they did not do it. Yeah, they may have been the figurehead, but they did not do it alone. Yeah. And, and having those people speak India as well as really important because I mean the civil multiple purposes, I, I, so I have two coaches and I have an accountability coach and I've got four peer coaches where we coach each other and help each other out. And honestly, that's probably the best relationships of all, because you get to send a quick message going. And they're like, quick jump on zoom. I remember doing that. I had a summit where one of my VAs just went Mia, like honestly, and just lift me in the lurch. And I had to do everything myself while trying to move house into this place while also preparing for a wedding for a friend of ours, all this stuff and, and watching my group program. So all of this happening at the same time, and I had to fulfill their roles. Couldn't just hand it over to someone straight away, the whole policy stuff behind it. And I was just like, oh my goodness, this, this is not, [00:30:00] this is nuts. And I hit the wall one night where I had to get this email out and I was trying to, trying to think of the wording. And I just went by. And I just seen it. So is to one of my peer coaches and just said help. And she's like, what's up? And I said, I'm trying to wipe words, English not good, tired out. Now she goes, jump on zoom. And we co-wrote that. And I tell you now she didn't look at me as a failure at all. She didn't look at me and go, oh, I can't believe that's going to do this. She was like, I'm so glad I got to help. I'm so glad I got to be part of this as well. And then I returned the favor. I see many times where as well, but it's that whole thing of, I surround myself with these people and I can tell you now I wouldn't be where I am. If I didn't have these people surrounding me, because they will, they will encourage you when you hit the wall and you're going to hit the wall a lot. You're an entrepreneur. That means you have days where you're crushing it. And days where you're like, I can't get out of bed. These are the people that get you out, be in a case, they remind you why you're doing what you're doing, but they also see your blind spots. They see the areas that you don't even know are problematic and they call you [00:31:00] out on that. And they bolster the areas where you're weaker as well. And more than that, they're just become ridiculous friends. So just got to do it anyway. Trina: Yeah. Well, yeah, it's the power of community and creating your own community, creating your own little mastermind. That's beautiful. Yeah. Listeners, if you don't have a community of peers who are on the same journey in some degree or another, I encourage you to find one. I know that I've had made the biggest growth as when being part of a community when I'm surrounded by people who are on a similar journey, because family, friends, strangers on Facebook, that they do not understand what you're going through, what you're experiencing, what your struggles are. And when you have those peers, you can just say a few words [00:32:00] and they will know exactly where you're coming from and be able to support you. And you will be able to do the same for Vince Warnock: them. Definitely. It's super important. And it's funny because family and friends is a really good example of it. They mean? Well, like family and friends. Yeah, yeah, exactly. But the thing is they can't see your vision. They've never been where you're going. And this is why you get people that have been where you're going, you know, because they were, their thing is I want to protect you. So therefore, that's never going to work. What are you doing? Come on trainer. You're never going to be successful if you do that, Trina: your inner critic on the outside of your body. Vince Warnock: Yeah, exactly. So you want to surround yourself with people that have been there, done that and go TriNet. You're on the right track. Please keep doing. Trina: Yeah. Awesome. Yeah. And for the family, just tell them it's going to be okay. Vince Warnock: I got this. Yeah, I got this. I know what I'm doing. Yeah. Or come and talk to me when you've done this before one doesn't go down well at dinner parties. Trina: Well, [00:33:00] Vince, this has been an absolute pleasure. You mentioned during our conversation that you have at least what four new books coming out. Vince Warnock: Yes. I've got two new books coming out in December and as well as republishing my first book, because I made some changes to it. And then two other books which are going to be published in January and then another two by the end of 20, 22 and two children's books as well. Cause I love just the cheesy dad jokes that are in there Trina: Vince, this conversation we could go on for hours, but I want to respect your time. And would you be willing to come back for another interview? At some point, Vince Warnock: Ahhh, let me think about that for more than two seconds. Of course I would come on, any time with you Trina is devine.. Trina: Fantastic. Because it's an absolute pleasure. There's nothing but gold that happens during our conversations. [00:34:00] And it's been that way from the very beginning, which was not that long. And I expect it to continue. So this has been an absolute pleasure having you. How can people find out more about you, Vince? Oh, man, I made this so complex, nasty marketing expert. Exactly. Just go to Chasingtheinsights.com. You'll see a few things on their pages. Obviously the home of my podcast and that's the home of my books. But you'll see on there, two things really important. One.

And just book some time with me, they are no obligation whatsoever. In fact, like I said, nine times out of 10, I'm going to forget to tell you about what I do anyway. So it's really just there to serve you. Vince Warnock: I'm on a massive mission Trina. Help as many entrepreneurs as I possibly can. I [00:35:00] just think it's a high calling. I think it's something that's really special as the backbone of our economy and entrepreneurs of just bad ass. Awesome individuals. Yeah. That's a beautiful end listeners.
