In today's episode, I dive into what needs to happen before you ever start a positioning exercise. I explain why positioning fails when teams skip preparation, ignore alignment, or try to make positioning work for every customer they've ever had. I also walk through how to assemble the right team, let go of outdated assumptions, and create shared language so positioning decisions actually stick.You will learn: (01:53) How the second edition of my book Obviously Awesome restructures positioning into pre-work, core work, and post-work.(03:12) Why positioning is not a marketing-only activity and requires cross-functional input.(05:54) What sales, product, founders, and executives uniquely contribute to positioning decisions.(10:29) How to assemble the right-sized positioning team without derailing facilitation.(11:56) Why identifying obvious bad-fit customers upfront improves positioning clarity.(18:56) How to let go of legacy positioning baggage that no longer fits your market reality.(21:58) Why aligning on positioning vocabulary before the workshop prevents costly confusion.—Connect with April Dunford and learn about practical positioning that accelerates marketing and sales: Work with April: https://www.aprildunford.com/contact April's newsletter: https://aprildunford.substack.com/ April's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aprildunford/ April's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aprildunford/ April's Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/aprildunford April's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@positioningshow—Mentioned in this episode: * Obviously Awesome, Second Edition (forthcoming). —Get April Dunford's books and audiobooks: “Obviously Awesome: How to Nail Product Positioning so Customers Get It, Buy It, Love It.”“Sales Pitch: How to Craft a Story to Stand Out and Win.”Amazon US: https://amzn.to/49l0ZRY Amazon Canada: https://amzn.to/4ac9hgt Amazon UK: https://amzn.to/3vosDzQApple Books: https://apple.co/3xihSzCGoogle Play: https://play.google.com/store/search?q=%22April%20Dunford%22&c=books Barnes & Noble: https://www.bn.com/s/%22April%20Dunford%22 Bookshop: https://bookshop.org/contributors/april-dunford —The Positioning with April Dunford podcast: Want to make your product stand out in a crowded market?

This episode of the Life Legacy Podcast features an in-depth, heartfelt conversation between host Jaxon Cummings and Ben Kjar, Masters World Champion wrestler, speaker, entrepreneur, and subject of the Angel Studios documentary Stand Out.Ben reflects on how his life has evolved over recent years—moving from external success toward deeper internal alignment. He shares powerful lessons on fatherhood, adoption, resilience, faith, intentional relationships, and learning to say “no” to good things to make space for great ones.Central to the episode is Ben's philosophy of showing up—for family, friends, and God—without expectation of return. He recounts pivotal childhood trauma related to his facial difference (Crouzon Syndrome), including a defining “Twix moment” where his mother helped him reframe pain into purpose.Together, Jaxon and Ben explore legacy, team-building, spiritual trust, third-dimensional love, and how life's darkest moments often become the foundation for our greatest impact. The episode closes with Ben outlining his personal framework for 2026—centered on faith, family, fitness, fulfillment, and his theme for the year: “Let Him”.Core ThemesLegacy over achievementIntentional relationships & third-dimensional loveTurning trauma into purposeFaith-driven decision-makingThe power of showing up unaskedTeam, accountability, and communityLetting go of controlSaying no to “good” to create space for “great”Key TakeawaysEvery “yes” is also a “no”—be intentional with your time.Painful moments can be foundations, not failures.True love acts without keeping score.Legacy is built in quiet moments, not public recognition.The right people will call you higher, not keep you comfortable.Trusting God often means releasing the steering wheel.CONNECT WITH BEN KJAR*Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/benkjar/ *YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@benkjar2609 *LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-kjar-91909913/ *Website - https://benkjar.com/ *Movie - https://standoutfilm.com/ *Buy Tickets in Theaters - https://standoutfilm.com/where-to-watch/#tickets LISTEN/WATCH/SUBSCRIBE TO THE “YOUR LIFE LEGACY PODCAST”*Apple Music - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-life-legacy-podcast/id1740167449 *Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/2Cd8XFP59Ar864GcaoEDxW *YouTube Podcasts - https://www.youtube.com/@thelifelegacypodcast *Amazon Music Podcasts - https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/b1949e1f-a973-47da-b1e0-538945afa748/the-life-legacy-podcast *iHeartRadio Podcasts - https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-the-life-legacy-podcast-165910407 CONNECT WITH “THE LIFE LEGACY PODCAST”*LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaxon-cummings-%F0%9F%92%AD%F0%9F%8E%A5-24b40a149/ *Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/lifelegacypodcast/ *TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@lifelegacypodcast *YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@thelifelegacypodcast *Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61558217934317 *Threads - https://www.threads.net/@lifelegacypodcast *X - https://twitter.com/lifelegacypod *Website - https://your-life-legacy.com/ *Email for general messages - lifelegacypodcast@outlook.com *Collab with us - lifelegacypodcast@outlook.comPRODUCTION CREDITS:Recorded at Mindset Content Creation StudiosProduced by Tommy MooreBrought to you by Vodcasts by Tommy Moore Presents - https://www.instagram.com/vodcasts_by_tommymoore/FIND OTHER THINGS LIKE US (Our Friends, People we Support, Products You Should Buy)***Risen Pendant - https://risenshop.com/product/ DISCOUNT CODE: lifelegacyThis episode is brought to you by Your Life Legacy - https://your-life-legacy.com/ #TheLifeLegacyPodcast #yourlifelegacy #jaxoncummings #tommymoorepresents #tommymoore #vodcastsbytommymoore #personaldocumentaries #benkjar #standoutfilm #wrestling #standout#crouzonsyndrome #makeadifference #angelstudios#facialdifference#disobeyaverage#3xsc#borntostandout
The Affiliate Guy with Matt McWilliams: Marketing Tips, Affiliate Management, & More
When it's time to sell, do you suddenly sound… different? A lot of people do. Their tone changes. Their words change. Their confidence changes. And without realizing it, they stop sounding like themselves. They stop sounding confident and start sounding desperate. That shift kills trust, hurts conversions, and slowly damages your brand. In this episode, I'm sharing how to sell in a way that feels natural, confident, and completely on brand… without sounding desperate, awkward, or fake.

Standout tells the inspiring story of Ben Kjar, born with Crouzon Syndrome, a rare craniofacial disorder. From birth, doctors warned that his life would be dominated by limitations, bullying and harsh scrutiny. Despite that prognosis, Ben yearned for an ordinary life free from judgment and harassment. However, each experience of adversity, including relentless bullying and a series of painful surgeries, ignited a fire within him. Wrestling became his proving ground, a place where he learned to transform his facial difference into a source of power. Determined to succeed, he pushed himself relentlessly, breaking through physical, social, and even romantic barriers that once seemed insurmountable. But as unexpected challenges arose and ridicule resurfaced, Ben found himself at a defining crossroads: fade into the background of a “normal” life, or fully embrace his difference and boldly stand out. The post Standout – Ben Kjar – Tanner Christensen – 1005 appeared first on The Cultural Hall Podcast.

Join Here: https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0KThe latest Notorious Mass Effect segment examines Zach Bryan's bold sixth studio album, With Heaven on Top, released January 9, 2026, via Belting Bronco/Warner Records. Hosted by Analytic Dreamz, this in-depth review covers the 25-track project (runtime ~78 minutes), entirely written and produced by Bryan in Tulsa-area Oklahoma homes, blending raw Americana, folk, and outlaw country with themes of sobriety, recovery, marriage, past relationships, loss, addiction, fatherhood doubts, and American identity tensions.Just three days later, on January 12, Bryan dropped a 24-track acoustic version—raw, one-take recordings with intentional imperfections—to counter overproduction critiques, preserving his authentic roots. Standout tracks include "Skin" (addressing his 2023–2024 breakup with Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia, tattoos, and sobriety), "Plastic Cigarettes" (emotional depth), "Runny Eggs" and "Camper" (softer nods to his New Year's Eve 2025 marriage to Samantha Leonard in Spain), and the controversial "Bad News" (politically charged ICE references and fading American dream).Critical reception praises Bryan's vulnerability and storytelling—Rolling Stone calls it his "most considered and accomplished," Pitchfork notes his growth on a "larger canvas" (7.0 rating), while others highlight emotional power amid excessive length causing fatigue. The album reinforces Bryan's status as a generation-defining force in Americana, post-Navy service (honorably discharged 2021), with massive catalog success (~$350M sale in 2025), billions in streams, and a 2026 stadium tour featuring MJ Lenderman, Dijon, and Alabama Shakes.Analytic Dreamz breaks down personal reflections, buzz tracks, controversies, and why With Heaven on Top delivers an unflinching portrait of flux in modern life, solidifying Bryan's raw honesty despite debates over sprawl.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In this episode of UNSCRIPTED, host Sarah Nicastro sits down with Stand Out 50 2025 leader Adam Gloss, Chief Operating Officer at Impel, to explore why self-awareness is your greatest leadership asset. The two discuss how to identify what truly drives you (and what doesn't) and the strategies to build a career aligned with your values—not just your ambitions.
Professional search firms play a big role in discovering and choosing leaders for senior roles. That's why anyone with C-suite ambitions needs to understand the recruiting process and what these evaluators are looking for. Mark Thompson, chairman of the Chief Executive Alliance, and Byron Loflin, global head of board advisory at Nasdaq, explain the ins and outs of recruitment, how to develop your narrative and navigate formal assessments and reference checks, and the best ways to build ongoing relationships. Thompson and Loflin are authors of the HBR article "How to Stand Out to C Suite Recruiters" and the book CEO Ready: What You Need to Know to Earn the Job and Keep the Job.
In this episode, Sarah chats with Ben Peck, Director of Product Design & Global Strategy at nCino and a longtime community builder in the UX and product world, to demystify how UX hiring really works, from the perspective of someone who's hired again and again.Ben brings over 20 years of experience across agencies, tech, leadership, and community building. As the co-founder of Front Conference and former Executive Director of Product Hive, he's reviewed hundreds of portfolios, partnered closely with recruiters, and built high-performing design teams across industries.Together, Sarah and Ben unpack what actually happens after you click “apply,” how hiring managers scan portfolios, why storytelling matters more than polish, and how community and relationships quietly shape most UX careers.If you've ever wondered what's going on behind the scenes of UX hiring, or how to stand out without burning yourself out, this episode is for you.What You'll Learn in This Episode:✔️ What hiring managers actually look for in UX portfolios✔️ Why your portfolio needs a hook—and what that hook should be✔️ How recruiters and hiring managers split screening responsibilities✔️ The biggest mistakes candidates make when telling case study stories✔️ Why generalists are thriving in today's UX job market✔️ How to make industry or role pivots without starting over✔️ The smartest way to reach out to companies (and who not to DM)✔️ Why community—not cold applications—is the real career accelerant✔️ How hiring managers evaluate experience beyond “years on paper”Timestamps:00:00 Introduction and Purpose of the Podcast00:38 Guest Introduction: Ben Peck03:25 Ben Peck's Career Journey05:31 The Value of Being a Generalist10:22 Hiring Insights and Job Market Trends20:59 Portfolio Tips for Job Seekers28:57 The Importance of Storytelling in Portfolios30:42 Balancing Content and Design32:21 Effective Use of Prototypes and Videos40:00 Transitioning to a UX Career43:22 The Role of Community in Career Growth48:37 Advice for Job Seekers49:33 Lightning Round: Fun and Personal Insights53:13 Conclusion and Final Thoughts

CES 2026 trends take center stage in this conversation with tech journalist Jon Cohen. You hear how AI has shifted from hype to practical, on-device use, why privacy now matters more, and which products feel close to real-world adoption.From the show floor in Las Vegas, Marc Aflalo sits down with Jon Cohen to unpack what CES 2026 actually delivered. AI is still everywhere, but the tone has changed. Companies now focus on local, on-device AI instead of cloud-first systems, driven by privacy concerns and faster processing power.Jon highlights two future-facing ideas that stood out. The first is a non-invasive breath sensor that aims to estimate blood glucose levels using molecular analysis. It is still in clinical trials, but the potential impact for people with diabetes or pre-diabetes is clear. The second is a new generation of exoskeletons designed for daily life, work environments, and aging in place, rather than extreme activity or sports.They also explore the rise of assistive and age-focused tech, the growing accessibility presence at CES, and why augmented reality glasses are evolving more quietly than expected. Jon shares insights on new smart glasses designs that address privacy concerns, the explosion of robots on the show floor, and even a blackjack-playing robot built for Vegas.The conversation wraps with hands-on impressions of the Clicks physical keyboard phone, nostalgia-fueled BlackBerry design cues, and a clever new audio concept from Soundcore that blends open-ear listening with active noise cancelling.

On this edition of the Orange and Brown Talk podcast, Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe talk the future of the Browns' coaching staff. Defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz has expressed interest in being a head coach again. What are the pros and cons of promoting Schwartz, considering his experience and the success of the defense, versus the league trend of hiring younger, offensive-minded coaches? Could promoting Schwartz or offensive coordinator Tommy Rees provide stability, or do the Browns owe it to themselves to conduct a full, comprehensive coaching search if they move on from Kevin Stefanski? They also explore the argument for keeping Stefanski as a CEO coach to maintain the continuity of his successful coordinators. Then, Lance Reisland joins Dan to break down the film from the win over the Steelers. - How the Steelers game-planned to stop Myles Garrett and whether it was more than usual. - The decision-making of Aaron Rodgers and the plays he left on the field. - The continued development and areas for improvement for QB Shedeur Sanders. - Standout performances from defensive players like Carson Schwesinger, who played through injury, and the impressive physicality of Tyson Campbell.

Send us a textWelcome back to DMR!This year's top ten movies of the year reflects a powerful mix of blockbuster spectacle, bold storytelling, and franchise reinvention that dominated the film conversation. Standout titles like The Naked Gun, Mission: Impossible, Avatar Fire & Ash, F1, Weapons, Sinners, and One Battle After Another showcase how studios leaned hard into recognizable IP while still taking creative risks. From high-octane action and jaw-dropping visuals to darker, character-driven thrillers, these films fueled nonstop discussion among movie fans, critics, and podcast audiences alike. Searches for best movies of the year, top ten films, and must-see blockbusters surged as audiences returned to theaters looking for cinematic events worth the big screen experience.This year was also packed with major events in film, including massive opening weekends, long-awaited sequels, and filmmakers pushing technology and storytelling forward. Avatar Fire & Ash continued to redefine visual effects and world-building, while Mission: Impossible proved practical stunts still draw crowds. The surprise buzz around films like Sinners and Weapons highlighted the growing appetite for original, edgy cinema alongside tentpole releases. Meanwhile, industry moments such as record-breaking box office performances, renewed debates around theatrical vs. streaming releases, and the rise of filmmaker-driven franchises made this a landmark year for movies. At DMR Deweys Movie Reviews, these films didn't just entertain—they shaped the conversation about where cinema is headed next.Be sure to grab your 30 Day Free Audible Trial - Link in the showThank you for all the support this year!Support the showThe audio clips used in this podcast, including excerpts from movie/series/documentary trailers, are used under the principles of fair use and fair dealing for the purpose of criticism, commentary, and review.

Johnny Newton had a really good game yesterday amongst others.
In this episode of My Weekly Mixtape, I spotlight 10 cover songs released this year that turn already familiar tunes into something fresh, unexpected, and conversation-worthy.Cover songs have always been a litmus test for creativity — and something I've always had a personal affinity for — but in 2025, artists are pushing reinterpretation further than ever. By reworking melodies, reshaping arrangements, and reframing the overall vibe, these versions give the originals entirely new meanings. This episode breaks down why these performances resonated, how they differ from (or pay homage to) the originals, and what makes a great cover song connect with fans today!
