Ian Munsick (@ianmunsick) sat down with Bobby Bones to talk about his music journey coming from Wyoming. Ian grew up doing ranch work but was encouraged young to start music and played in his family band. He shares the struggles of leaving Wyoming to chase his music dreams in Nashville and attend Belmont University where he met his manager turned wife, and why they kept their relationship private in the beginning. Ian also reveals why his speech impediment goes away when he's on stage and how he overcomes it. He also shares working with his hero, Cody Johnson, and getting his first cut as a songwriter when he asked for his song "Leather."

Contributor: Meghan Hurley MD Educational Pearls: Pearls about labor: Labor is split into 3 stages. Stage 1 starts when the first persistent contractions are felt and goes up until the cervix is fully dilated and the mother starts pushing. Stage 1 is split into two phases: the latent phase (cervix is dilated from 0-4 cm), and the active phase (cervix dilates from 4-10 cm). The latent phase can take between 6 and 12 hours with contractions happening every 5 to 15 minutes. The active phase usually lasts 4-8 hours with contractions occurring as close as every 3 minutes. Stage 2 is the birth itself, lasting between 20 minutes and 2 hours. Stage 3 is the delivery of the placenta and typically takes 30 minutes.  37 weeks gestational age is the cutoff for preterm. Placenta previa: Condition when the placenta overlies the cervix. Classically presents as painless vaginal bleeding in the 3rd trimester. If suspected placenta previa, avoid a speculum exam. Placenta previa can be confirmed on ultrasound.  If the baby is crowning in the ER then the baby should be delivered in the ER. The ideal presentation on crowning is head first (Vertex), specifically ‘left occiput anterior'. In this position, the baby is head first and the head is facing towards the gurney at a slight angle. If the baby is coming out in a breech position then the provider should “elevate the presenting part” by maintaining pressure on the baby as the mother is wheeled to the OR for an emergency C-section. If a vertex-presenting baby is being delivered vaginally, after the head has been delivered an event called ‘restitution' must occur to align the baby's shoulders properly. During this event, the baby goes from facing down towards the gurney to facing sideways. After restitution, the anterior shoulder should be delivered, followed by the posterior. After complete delivery, the cord should be clamped (after a 1-3 minute delay), with something sterile. Gentle downward traction on the cord helps to deliver the placenta. You can place pressure above the pubic bone to prevent the uterus from involuting during this process. This is not the same as a fundal massage which happens after the delivery of the placenta to help the uterus clamp down and prevent postpartum hemorrhage.

Part 2 of our back to back AMA episodes for the week and this is a can't miss! Caller #3 is Maya who is 28yrs old from Japan.  Maya has 3 jobs trying to support her 2 young children.  Her husband isn't working and doesn't show any ambition to get stable.  That's not the worst of it though.  This call turns pretty dark but it's a can't miss. Caller #4 is Anna who is 25yrs old from Manila.  Anna has been a listener for two years so she's not that versed in Mo's FUBU formula.  There's a guy showing conflicting moves but he's just a FWB, so what should she do with him?

  The end of a romantic relationship, particularly for the initiator or the "dumper," marks a complex and pivotal moment in their life. Often seen as holding the "position of power," the initiator's journey, contrary to common focus, is as profound as that of the person left behind. This article, complemented by an in-depth video, explores the myriad emotions and behaviors experienced by the dumper, beginning with the "Relief Stage."   The Complex Emotion of Relief   The Relief Stage is characterized by a sense of liberation from an unfulfilling relationship and the resolution of internal conflict regarding the breakup. The dumper often feels a mix of liberation and regret for the pain caused. They anticipate improvement in their lives post-breakup and expect their former partner to eventually be fine, ironically leading to discomfort at the thought of their partner moving on.   Freedom and Social Renaissance   Post-breakup, dumpers often experience a surge in social activities and a pursuit of new interests, appearing as a celebration of newfound independence. This behavior, however, sometimes masks a deeper pursuit of another romantic connection, reflecting the complexity of human nature in seeking connection while relishing newfound freedom.   Our Catalog Culture and the Illusion of Choice   Today's digital era influences the dumper's perspective, with the "Catalog Culture" of dating apps and social media presenting endless romantic possibilities. This often leads to unrealistic expectations and a misunderstanding of the depth required in meaningful relationships, contributing to breakups and divorces.   Lingering Emotional Ties and Guilt   Despite outward expressions of freedom, dumpers often grapple with thoughts of their ex-partner, sometimes reaching out to alleviate guilt rather than a desire to rekindle the relationship. This highlights the complexity of their emotional state, torn between moving forward and the remnants of their past relationship.   The Decline of Patience and Alleged ‘Need for Space'   As the Relief Stage progresses, dumpers' tolerance for continued interaction with their ex-partner often diminishes. They may initially respond with understanding but repeated contact can lead to frustration and hostility. This shift signifies the dumper's need for space and time to navigate their post-breakup journey. Continued contact from the ex-partner can lead to a further drop in attraction due to perceived negativity and feeling trapped.   Reflection and Self-Discovery   This stage is also a time of introspection and self-discovery for the dumper, reflecting on the relationship's shortcomings, personal growth, and future aspirations. The No Contact Rule is emphasized, preventing further plummeting of attraction and forcing the dumper to consider the possibility of their ex moving on. This realization that the breakup has consequences is often what propels them to the next stage, "Curiosity."   The Illusion of Immediate Happiness   Dumpers often anticipate immediate happiness post-breakup, but the reality involves a gradual process of self-exploration and acceptance. They start questioning whether true happiness lies with the partner they left.   Societal Influences and Expectations   Societal norms also influence the Relief Stage, with external pressures to move on quickly often downplaying the complexity of the dumper's emotions. This pressure can hinder the natural progression of their post-breakup experience and sometimes even prompt a return to their former partner.   Preparing for Future Relationships   As the Relief Stage evolves, dumpers begin laying the groundwork for future relationships, learning from past experiences, understanding their role in the previous relationship's breakdown, and developing a clearer picture of what they seek in a partner.   Conclusion: A Journey Towards Emotional Maturity   The Relief Stage is a journey of emotional maturation and self-awareness, involving a complex interplay of emotions, behaviors, and societal influences. Understanding this stage is crucial for the dumper to navigate their post-breakup journey effectively, gaining deeper insights into themselves and their relationships, and ultimately setting the stage for their real decision.   On YouTube at "Your Ex In Relief Stage of Breakup"    Accompanying article at "Your Ex In The Relief Stage After Breakup"   On Medium at, "Your Ex In The Relief Stage"

Join me as we explore the closing chapters of the Old Testament, specifically Malachi 3 and 4, and uncover how they paved the way for the arrival of Jesus Christ. In these lesser-known yet profoundly significant verses, we'll discover the promises, prophecies, and messages that foreshadow the coming of someone who would change the course of history. We'll discuss the relevance of Malachi 3 and 4 in shaping the context for Jesus' arrival and how these verses continue to resonate with us today. This episode invites you to explore the bridge between the Old Testament and the advent of Jesus. Once we are done reading, I will be answering a few questions from my audience.

On Thursday night, it's a battle of the red states versus the blue states. On Fox News, Sean Hannity will moderate a debate between Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and California Governor Gavin Newsom. During the event, Governor DeSantis, a candidate for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination, is sure to be speaking directly to primary voters about his vision for the country. Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds is a red state governor herself, and she has endorsed DeSantis ahead of her state's first-in-the-nation caucus. On the Rundown, Gov. Reynolds previews what red state strengths DeSantis is likely to emphasize during the debate and unpacks her decision to endorse Governor DeSantis.

State Farm's Head of Marketing, Alyson Griffin, breaks down making the company's iconic jingle a bigger deal next year and diving more into retail media. Episode TranscriptPlease note, this transcript  may contain minor inconsistencies compared to the episode audio. Damian Fowler: (00:01)I'm Damien Fowler. AndIlyse Liffreing: (00:02)I'm EIS Lfr. AndDamian Fowler: (00:03)Welcome to this edition of the current podcast.Ilyse Liffreing: (00:10)This week we're delighted to talk with Allison Griffin, the head of marketing for State Farm.Damian Fowler: (00:15)State Farm Insurance Group has been around for more than a hundred years, but thanks to its high profile marketing campaigns, it remains a household name in the us. Over the years, companies had many entertaining creative campaigns, and the latest of course features the affable character of Jake from State Farm, who was present at a certain NFL game that made headlines in 2023. AndIlyse Liffreing: (00:36)We'll get to that with more than 25 years of experience leading teams at top Tech brands. Allison became head of marketing for the Iconic brand in May, 2021. She has a motto which goes like this, always curious, always learning, always happy to share my insights.Alyson Griffin: (00:59)State Farm is a 100 year old brand. You know, we've gotta try to figure out how to remain relevant, not only to our current big tried and true customer base of all. I'm pointing at myself, I know we're on a podcast, the Gen Xers of the world and older, but also that next generation. And one of the ways we do that is through life stages. And of course, every marketer knows you have to be relevant to the target that you're going after. Look, people don't think about insurance at all, ever. Maybe , if I could say, with a big smile on my face. So we've gotta think about, you know, your first apartment or your first car, or having a baby or buying a home, or those life stages matter because they matter to the person that they're happening to. They're big events. And for us, dissecting who the target is, what stage they're in, and how, you know, what do they care about? That has started to shape our media strategy. It started to shape how we think about capturing current demand, generating future demand, and retention and loyalty for our customer base.Ilyse Liffreing: (02:05)Now there's a lot of strategy, obviously behind your marketing campaigns. For instance, when you're selling auto or life insurance, there's a product for sale. But the genius of your campaigns is that you don't really talk about the product like it's there. Obviously you're selling it, but it's not, you know, in your face. This is auto life insurance. Um, what is the concept you are marketing exactly, would you say? And how does that vary, I guess, based on the demographic?Alyson Griffin: (02:33)Yeah, so it's different than, you know, if you hold up your phone or something, it's different than a product that somebody needs to understand how much it costs. How long is the battery life? I'm sort of making this up, this is different. The, the insurance, what we're selling is in part the policy, but it's also in part a relationship with the agent. We have almost 20,000 agents across the United States who are independent contractors, you know, not State Farm employees, and they're running small businesses and trying to be meaningful and are meaningful in the communities where they live and work and offer basically advice services, et cetera. So for us, from a national campaign perspective, we've gotta make sure the brand is strong and branding is not product advertising. We need to make sure that our assets are known and appreciated. And asset is Jake from State Farm that you already mentioned, but also our jingle or even just the words like a good neighbor State Farm is there. And so we dial up and dial down each of those assets in real life or in the virtual world, depending on the life stage. The person that we're targeting, do they know us or not? Are we trying to bind a policy today or not? And that's, you know, the mix with which we're trying to buy media and showing up in places where these current and potential customers are. It'sDamian Fowler: (03:54)Interesting to hear you talk about big national campaigns and that that awareness that you drive and done it so successfully over the years. And, and the latest iteration of course is is Jake from State Farm, that character, what, why has he proved such a strong character in campaigns?Alyson Griffin: (04:09)He started out over 10 years ago as Jake, a real State Farm employee, and it was back when we were putting agents and employees in our ads. And you may recall the original campaign where it's a middle of the night phone call and the husband is talking on the phone, the wife comes downstairs, who are you talking to? And it's Jake from State Farm. And the question is, what are you wearing? And he says, uh, khakis, . So we got a lot of play out of that for many, many, many years. But that was of real employees, not an actor, doesn't, he has a job and a family and a life and isn't a trained actor. So fast forward to about 2019, um, maybe 2018, the company was looking to say, Hey, we have some equity in the, in the asset or the one word, I'll call it Jake from State Farm, all one word.Alyson Griffin: (04:56)And you know, how do we dial that up and make that asset work harder and be more meaningful for, for us, because we thought it could be the personification of what it means to be a good neighbor. And we're very fortunate, he is thought of as a real person, and he's not a cartoon or a caricature. He's really Jake from State Farm, he's a guy, he's doing good neighbor stuff, he's got a TikTok account just like regular influencer or regular person would. And for us, making him bring to life the values of what it means to help more people in more ways and to be that good neighbor in the country, uh, really mattered to us. And so we put a lot of effort into making that a cultural icon. Yeah,Damian Fowler: (05:43)I mean he really has cut through and he's a very competitive world i, I gather so, and State Farm is very much present in the culture and um, one of the ways that you've done this so successfully is leaning into major sporting personalities, um, over the last several years, uh, including a campaign featuring,Alyson Griffin: (06:03)Uh,Damian Fowler: (06:03)Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelsey for instance.Alyson Griffin: (06:06)What'sDamian Fowler: (06:07)The playbook there when you, when it comes to partnering with sports stars?Alyson Griffin: (06:11)We've been in sports for a very long time and it's important to us because it's tied to real passion. It's one of the last bastions of eyeballs all watching the same event at the same time. Right? Live television doesn't much exist anymore. If you're watching a Netflix episode and I'm watching one, we might not be at the same spot at the same time, for example. But live sports, you get people who are engaged across generations and, and a lot of viewership also don't forget from an advertising perspective, there's also highlights the replays, et cetera. So for us, sports has been long something we've leaned into and the advertising we realized performs better when, if you're not an endemic brand to sports, and we are not. And so for us, aligning our brand with brand ambassadors who match our values and are at the top of their game, showed us that we could cut through. So we have football, you know, Patrick Mahomes, you mentioned Travis Kelsey, he was with us this current football season. Um, and Coach Reed, you know, in football spots and Chris Paul and other NBA players in basketball spots. We have women for women's sports, et cetera. So the idea is if we match the passion and a relevant player and create a spot that leans into endemically where the ad is showing, it just performs much better.Damian Fowler: (07:31)Hmm, that's interesting.Ilyse Liffreing: (07:33)Now, speaking of sport and Travis Kelsey, let's talk about that viral moment that was created when Jake from State Farm was spotted chatting with who else? The Donna, Kelsey,Alyson Griffin: (07:43)TravisIlyse Liffreing: (07:44)Kelsey's mom, of course in the NFL Suite.Alyson Griffin: (07:47)WhatIlyse Liffreing: (07:47)Kind of reaction did you get from this, like viral moments and seeing all the elements come together? Can you walk us through how you kind of seized the moment?Alyson Griffin: (07:55)Yeah, that was really interesting. So the week before, we know that Travis Kelsey had a special guest in the box with his mom, and that was Taylor Swift. So I like to say we acted swiftly, . And within a week, um, we were able to place Jake from State Farm at Jason Kelsey's game, the Eagles. And we didn't want, you know, Jason, Kelsey's mom not to have a superstar celebrity sit with her. Uh, I say with a big smile on my face, . And it was great. We, we did have to act really fast. We that came together in less than 48 hours and, and for us capturing a cultural moment, and again, we have this asset that looks like and acts like and feels like a real human being. Jake from State Farm, so he could show up in the stands sitting with Mama Ma Otto, I'll call her as a nod to Travis Kelsey playing Mahomes and Mato in our current ads. Um, but with Donna Kelsey and, and him sitting there, you know, he sits, uh, courtside at NBA Allstar games, he shows up at Bravo con Twitch Con, right? Like, so Jake shows up in the world. And, and so the magic of saying we could really capitalize on this quickly and the fact that all the stars aligned and it came together was really, really fun for us.Ilyse Liffreing: (09:12)What does like a viral moment like that though mean for your brand? Because I know you talked about being like culturally resonant brand in insuranceAlyson Griffin: (09:21)AndIlyse Liffreing: (09:21)This would seem like a perfect example ofAlyson Griffin: (09:24)DoingIlyse Liffreing: (09:24)Just thatAlyson Griffin: (09:25)For us. Um, being culturally relevant matters. And it's not that any brand tries to be if you try too hard and for us, it's not that we're trying too hard, it's Hey, Jake would be there and we thought that we would be true to who we are. He shows up in those kinds of, um, situations regularly. And so let's just try it. And it wasn't because we were trying to be culturally iconic, it was because it just fit.Damian Fowler: (09:55)I mean, I wonder how do you measure something like that? I know it is a viral moment and it goes big, but do you see kind of the results of that?Alyson Griffin: (10:02)Yes. You can't pick a viral moment, right? It goes viral because it goes viral. And, and so then all of the, you know, there's the regular stuff you would think the reach, the syndication, the press, the chatter on, you know, X and other social media platforms of course were part of it. Engagement hashtags. That was all obvious. But what we were super excited about is a company EDO does measurement around search volume and correlating the exact second that Jake from State Farm was on camera to search volume was astonishing. Astonishing. And the results of all six of those spots increased in awareness by 15 times because of the viral moment. So it was like something that you wouldn't know, that you can't test and you don't get the opportunity to learn from very often, right? 'cause those don't happen very often. But we saw meaningful increase and value from a very innocent, just let's put Jake from State Farm next to Donna Kelsey.Damian Fowler: (11:12)I know you are exploring other channels as well to reach, you mentioned Gen X and Gen Z, the Gen Z audience, which is obviouslyAlyson Griffin: (11:19)GonnaDamian Fowler: (11:20)Be looking for insurance too. Um, in particular your gamer hood challenge, which launched last year, and I'm interested to talk about gaming and eSports and why is that an important part of your playbook?Alyson Griffin: (11:31)I'm fairly new to State Farm. I've been at State Farm for two and a half years, but I spent almost 30 years in the tech industry. And I say that to say gaming. I was at Hewlett-Packard and Intel for most of my career, and they're endemic to gaming. And so I had a lot of experience in the gaming world when I stepped in the door at State Farm, the insurance category other than maybe a logo sponsorship on a gamer or a game that's pretty much all the insurance industry was doing. And I was like, look, if we can, because the audience mattered these gamers, not eSports teams, but a casual fun gamers, much bigger universe. And we thought if we could tap in for generating future demand, again, these are not people who are buying policies today, but to get and show up at the place they already are with, um, an interest that they already have.Alyson Griffin: (12:23)It's very similar to the playbook of sports, but this is a different kind of audience and showing up for them in gaming. And so we created our own intellectual property around a gaming competition. It's run two years in a row now in the month of June for five episode, five weekly episodes and have gamers competing. And we've got Jake from State Farm in there, our assets and we loosely tie insurable moments. So think the gamers have to cope with distractions and still try to win. And some of the distractions are pipes in the house will burst or um, some of them went on a little road trip and they got a flat tire, right? So just loose and fun. We're not selling anything, we're not trying to shove anything down the throats, but to watch these, I'll call them insurable moments, hinder the forward progress of a gamer in a fun, interesting way. And the gamers had a lot of fun with, it was a really cool experience, uh, for us. And it's done quite well. That'sDamian Fowler: (13:21)Interesting. It goes back to your sort of ways of reaching customers at these different life stages and you're very nuanced about it and, and kind of smart the way you, you're doing it.Alyson Griffin: (13:31)Well, exactly where they are on Twitch and YouTube, right? Mm-Hmm. from a gaming perspective. So be where they are, don't make them come to me. Mm-Hmm. , they're not gonna go seeking out an insurance brand. I better go be there. Mm-Hmm. with something fun, interesting and different. And that's what we attempted to do.Damian Fowler: (13:45)I also noticed that you had created some Pinterest pins aimed at educating viewers around why they should get life insurance.Alyson Griffin: (13:53)CanDamian Fowler: (13:53)You talk a little bit about that campaign as well?Alyson Griffin: (13:55)Yeah. That's another life stage, right? So these media partners of ours are great because we wanna lean in and be, I'm gonna call it, I've never used this before, but endemic to the partner, right? Mm-Hmm. . So a Pinterest board. Mm-Hmm. . And if you can notice what somebody is doing, whether they're redecorating a room, like looks like, oh, this person might be remodeling their bathroom, or oh, this person might be having a baby, or oh, this person might be buying a new house or cars or whatever. Pinterest is such a great, uh, media outlet for passion points. And we thought, well, these are life moments. And as we talked about at the top of the podcast, these life moments, um, are a way in for us to meet a person where they are and not just say, get a quote for auto insurance, but to go offer them up something that's contextually relevant to what they're doing. And because Pinterest is what Pinterest is, we're able to do that in a meaningful way. Now when itIlyse Liffreing: (14:51)Comes to more like big TV buys and like maybe CTV buys, do you think like holistically about campaigns and connect those big TV buys with like more performance driven plays? Oh,Alyson Griffin: (15:05)A hundred percent. So State Farm, you know, is a prolific advertiser, right? Our category demands that. And television was the way, let's say, I don't even know, it's probably wasn't that long ago if I really stopped to think about it. The world's moving so fast.Ilyse Liffreing: (15:18)It is, it is.Alyson Griffin: (15:20)Goes quickly, but we know that digital matters and so do the, the media partners. They know that, um, digital and the even live shows that get streamed for the week after, they know that they can target that there's a lot of value that they can sell to advertisers for that long tail of their own, even a live experience. So we know that we need to do both. We still are big advertisers in live tv, mostly sports, but also working with the media partners who are putting really great content online and targeting. And that data matters so much and we're working more and more and more with partners to figure out how do we catch the right person at the right time with the right message, um, that's contextually relevant and that helps us be relevant to the person at the time that they need it.Damian Fowler: (16:13)Retail data is really come into its own, should we say, and especially for non-endemic brands, again, inside that ecosystem. How has that made a difference? Um, you know, in the last two years,Alyson Griffin: (16:24)A lot, it's funny, and I can say this out loud because Home Depot themselves said it, we're the first non-endemic partner of Home Depot, and we're partnering with them not only for their stores and the environment, they have a lot of small businesses as their customers, as well as home ownership, right? Mm-Hmm. and Car Repair and Home and Auto, yeah. Um, and so we are partnering with the Home Depot who knows very deeply about who their customers are and what matters from a data sharing perspective. And, uh, we think there's nowhere to go but up on that. Of course, we do it with media partners, of course. Uh, Disney being a very big one, right? Just because of all of their properties. It, it's on both levels is my point. So a big media partner that knows their audience, but someone like Home Depot or Walmart, those are really important to us so that we can continue to offer the best message to these customers and around things like small business or home improvement or auto care that matters to us. We sell those products.Ilyse Liffreing: (17:25)How are you thinking about 2024? Do you think you can actually like build upon this year's viral moments,Alyson Griffin: (17:32)? Yeah, I mean, we hope so, right? So Jake from State Farm isn't going anywhere, but we are going to dial up, you'll start seeing, um, more around our jingle. So I'm not saying our jingle is not known like a good neighbor. State Farm is there. I won't sing it here,Ilyse Liffreing: (17:46), although I'llAlyson Griffin: (17:47)Tell you, I'll give you a little fun fact That Jingle was written in 1971 by none other than Barry Manalow.Ilyse Liffreing: (17:53)No, really?Damian Fowler: (17:54)Yes. Does Barry get royalties?Alyson Griffin: (17:55)I don't know. , , probably , but we, you know, it's known and there's a lot of TikTok. You can go out and look at our, look at that jingle and see a lot of people playing with the content. We wanna kind of kick that into high gear again and, um, not only talk about Jake from State Farm, but have some fun playing with our jingles. So the notion of being a good neighbor and being there for people is one part of it. But the actual notes, the song of it is another.Damian Fowler: (18:25)And that's it for the current podcast. We'll be back next week with our guest, Jonathan Stringfield, the VP of Global Research and Marketing at Activision BlizzardJonathan Stringfield:Gaming is increasingly going to be a hobby that is divorced from gaming devices virtually anywhere that there is a screen that's smart, there's probably gonna be an opportunity to play a game. Ilyse Liffreing: (19:02)And if you love this podcast, be sure to subscribe and leave a review While you're at it.
