On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with John Franklin Rinehart, founder of Austin Film Crew. We talk in depth about his latest project in Gonzalez, Texas, and the Texas Legacy in Lights project, a full-scale live-action film projected onto the Gonzalez Memorial Museum. With the film, John is helping the community prepare for future visitors by developing new branding and digital assets that reflect the community. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How John moved from a career in music to becoming a leader in experiential storytelling How thinking differently can create breakthroughs for small destinations What inspired the Texas Legacy and Lights project in Gonzalez, Texas, and how live-action projection mapping was used to tell a unique local story How John and his team rebuilt Gonzalez's tourism platform after the city lost its website, and what went into creating digital assets for community branding Why translating tourism websites into dozens of languages creates new opportunities to attract international visitors, even for small towns How leadership, vision, and empowering local talent can transform ordinary community assets into extraordinary tourism attractions Lessons John has learned about overcoming skepticism and inspiring communities to believe in bold, world-class projects Challenging the Status Quo in Tourism Marketing Tourism marketing often feels like a tightly-packed field, but John believes the space is less competitive than it is stale. Many marketers follow in others' footsteps, replicating strategies instead of innovating. Real breakthrough requires a willingness to "break your brain a little bit"—to stop asking what everyone else is doing and start challenging your own assumptions. The key is to create something so unique that people and the media cannot help but take notice. If no one is willing to write about your idea or pay attention to it, then it's not bold enough to rise above the noise. The Texas Legacy in Lights Project Gonzalez, Texas, is steeped in history, forever linked to the "Come and Take It" flag and the beginning of the Texas Revolution. But its story has long been overshadowed by the likes of the Alamo. The city's challenge is to tell its tale in a way that stands out not just locally, but on the global stage. Enter Texas Legacy in Lights: a full-scale, live-action film projected using cutting-edge 3D mapping technology onto the city's Memorial Museum. John and his team tackled the much harder task of using live-action film to bring history to life right on the building's facade. The project required extensive technical, creative, and engineering skill, from building accurate period costumes and sets to installing a sound system that's immersive within the venue but virtually silent outside, because of the residential community nearby. Rethinking the Ordinary Tourism Website Tourism starts online, but most tourism websites are mere directories meant for visitors who have already chosen their destination. John's challenge is to ignite aspiration and connection long before travelers decide to visit. Gonzalez's new digital hub goes well beyond the norm: it features content in 50 languages, each tailored and not just run through Google Translate. The site provides unique guides for different cultures, practical tips for international visitors (like where to buy good bread or how to navigate transportation-less Texas), and locally-flavored stories that spark emotion and imagination. This strategic move recognizes overlooked audience segments searching the web, making Gonzalez visible to the world and accessible in unprecedented ways.

The hardest part of changing your yard isn't the shovel work, it's the moment you decide the “perfect lawn” game isn't worth playing anymore. I'm continuing our three-part series on growing a rebel garden with the second phase: Reject. If you've ever felt stuck between keeping 100% turf and going 100% native, I'll show you the wide, realistic middle ground where a small, intentional garden can shift your whole landscape over time.We dig into the real reasons people don't start: fear of what neighbors will think, fear it'll look messy, fear you'll kill plants, and fear you're signing up for more work. I make the case for rejecting perfection and choosing participation instead. Your first rebel garden can be small (I recommend staying under 250 square feet), flexible, and designed for easy wins. I'll also walk you through a quick site reality check so you pick a spot you'll actually see, enjoy, and maintain while it establishes.Then we get practical: safety and planning. Before you dig, call 811 for utility locates. It's free, it's simple, and it protects you and your property. Finally, we tackle the most controversial step for many homeowners: removing turf. I explain the tension around using glyphosate as a one-time transition tool, why purpose and frequency matter, and what alternatives look like if you want to avoid chemicals. The goal stays the same: move away from ongoing chemical dependency and build a low-input, wildlife-friendly native plant garden that supports pollinators, birds, clean water, and healthy soil.If this matches your values, join me for the 10-day Rebel Garden Challenge starting June 19th. Subscribe, share this with a neighbor who's tired of lawn upkeep, and leave a review so more people can find a better way to grow.Join A Rebel Garden in Ten Days Challenge!Learn more about getting your own Rebel Garden at ABetterYard.org.

The latest episode of the Center for Immigration Studies podcast examines a recent U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) memo emphasizing that adjustment of status - the process allowing certain aliens, either temporary visa holders or unlawfully present, who are eligible for permanent residence to obtain it without leaving the United States - is a discretionary benefit and not a guaranteed alternative to consular processing abroad.The discussion between Senior Legal Fellow George Fishman and Director of Policy Studies Jessica Vaughan is accompanied by a new report and a policy blog on the subject.Among the key findings:Congress created adjustment of status under section 245 of the new Immigration and Nationality Act in 1952 largely to eliminate the need for temporary visa holders already in the United States to travel outside the U.S. for immigrant visa processing to permanent status.In FY2023, which is the most recent year for which statistics on adjustment of status admissions are available, the number of adjustments was 608,260 out of 1,172,910 total immigrant admissions, or 52 percent. Of these adjustments, by far the largest share were in the category of Immediate Relatives (315,830). In contrast, in 2023 only 146,880 people adjusted in all the employment categories combined, although this represented 75 percent of all employment LPR admissions.The policy change is expected to have its greatest impact on certain family-based applicants, including some who overstayed visas, violated the terms of admission, or entered illegally and received parole.While USCIS has broad discretion in adjustment decisions, courts have held that such discretion is not unlimited and may be reviewed for abuse of discretion.Existing legal precedent does not clearly support treating the mere act of seeking adjustment of status as a negative factor weighing against an applicant.USCIS has indicated that it may exercise discretion and offer some applicants the opportunity to adjust if it is in the national interest, such as in the case of applicants with meaningful employment or for humanitarian considerations.Fishman's report concludes that the legal significance of the directive will depend on how USCIS implements it in practice. If denial rates rise substantially or applications are denied absent meaningful adverse factors, litigation challenging those decisions is likely to follow (if federal courts allow legal challenges to adjustment denials outside of removal proceedings).Vaughan argues that the policy could strengthen the integrity of the immigration system as overstayers and parolees will no longer apply for fear of being caught for extended unlawful presence.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestsJessica Vaughan is the Director of Policy Studies at the Center for Immigration Studies.George Fishman is a Senior Legal Fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies.LinksUSCIS Upends the Status Quo for Adjustment of StatusUSCIS Blocks Green Card Shortcut for Overstayers and ParoleesIntro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

"The status quo is in all of our hands," says TRUFF co-founder Nick Guillen — a mindset that has guided the brand since day one. TRUFF built its reputation by breaking the rules. Now, as the company expands beyond its viral hot sauce with a major rebrand, new product lines, and a retail-focused growth strategy, Nick and co-founder Nick Ajluni are focused on scaling the business without losing the edge that made it a phenomenon. In this episode, the entrepreneurs discuss the strategy behind TRUFF's refreshed packaging, more accessible pricing, and new aioli line, as well as how they balance data and instinct when developing products. They also explain why bringing in an experienced CEO was a pivotal move for the company's next chapter and share their vision for evolving TRUFF from a disruptive startup into a lasting, category-defining condiment brand. Show notes: 0:20: Nick Ajluni & Nick Guillen, Co-Founders, TRUFF – The founders reflected on TRUFF's evolution from a digitally native, Instagram-driven luxury hot sauce brand into a broader premium condiment company focused on making "elevated culinary experiences more accessible" and a mission to become America's leading premium condiment brand. They also discussed TRUFF's recent brand refresh, describing it as a careful "renovation" rather than a reinvention and one that could support a more accessible pricing strategy without sacrificing the premium quality, distinctive branding, or culinary standards that built the company's reputation. They talk about the brand's innovation strategy which balances data, retailer feedback, consumer trends, and intuition while maintaining rigorous product development standards. The founders also highlight investments in talent, operations, and product quality and praise new CEO Essy Wolbe for her combination of CPG expertise, culinary passion, and cultural alignment with the founders' vision. Looking ahead, they say that their goal is not simply distribution growth or a potential acquisition, but building an enduring brand that reshapes how consumers think about condiments.

Ever sat in a meeting where the same problem gets rehashed for the nth time, only for nothing to change? Welcome to the world of organisational inertia—where analysis paralysis, over-collaboration, and a pathological fear of doing anything turn workplaces into graveyards of good intentions. This week, Jimmy and James dissect why companies (and the people in them) would rather sit on a nail than move an inch, and—more importantly—how to stop the rot.From the “Plan Z” demand for impossible certainty to the “frozen middle” of middle managers trapped between reality and corporate delusion, they expose the absurdity of systems that reward inaction and punish risk. But it's not all doom: they also serve up hard-won advice for breaking the cycle. Small changes beat grand transformations, persistence builds trust, and—yes—you do have more influence than you think.Five key points:Analysis paralysis: Endless data-gathering as a substitute for decision-making.Over-collaboration: When “everyone must agree” means nothing ever happens.Fear of error: The career-saving art of doing nothing (and why it's killing progress).Diffused ownership: The “Everybody-Somebody-Anybody-Nobody” fable, alive and well in your office.Small wins: How tiny, visible changes can outperform a 150-slide “transformation” deck.Dry, unflinching, and packed with the kind of stories that'll have you nodding (or weeping) in recognition.Got a question - get in touch.

In this episode of Connecting the Dots, Matt sits down with Jill Vitale-Aussem, President and CEO of Christian Living Communities, to explore a powerful shift in senior living: moving from a hospitality-driven model to a citizenship model rooted in purpose, belonging, reciprocity, and shared ownership.Jill reflects on her early experiences in nursing homes, the moment she began questioning the “we'll do everything for you” promise often found in senior living, and why true community is built when residents are seen not just as customers, but as citizens with gifts, agency, and something meaningful to contribute.Together, Matt and Jill discuss how this model changes daily life inside communities, how residents and team members care for one another, and why leaders should begin with better questions instead of ready-made answers.Guest Bio:Jill Vitale-Aussem is the President and CEO of Christian Living Communities, where she leads the organization's vision, culture, and growth across a continuum of services for older adults. With more than 30 years of experience in senior living, Jill has served in leadership roles across nursing homes, assisted living communities, and life plan communities. She previously served as President and CEO of the Eden Alternative, advancing a global movement focused on improving quality of life for older adults and their care partners.Jill is a licensed nursing home administrator, reframing aging facilitator, Eden Alternative educator, and graduate of the LeadingAge Leadership Academy. She is also the author of Disrupting the Status Quo of Senior Living: A Mindshift and speaks internationally on leadership, culture change, and ageism.Chapters:02:00 — Introduction to Jill Vitale-Aussem03:14 — Jill's path into senior living06:07 — Questioning the hospitality model07:14 — Purpose, independence, and ageism09:06 — What citizenship means in senior living10:18 — Citizenship in everyday community life13:07 — Doing things with residents, not for residents15:15 — Purpose in action17:02 — Helping people recognize their gifts19:02 — Resident ownership of team member experience22:01 — How citizenship reshapes leadership23:34 — Reciprocity between residents and team members25:34 — Where leaders should begin27:45 — Closing reflections

Elbridge Colby explains that the binding strategy addresses the psychological aspect of war by preparing for the resolve and morale required for a larger conflict. It aims to force China into a dilemma: accept the status quo or take actions that inevitably catalyze the coalition's collective resolve. By integrating the defense of allies like Japan and Australia, the U.S. ensures that a Chinese move against Taiwan precipitates a wider war China would likely lose. This strategy leverages Thumos, or spiritedness, to ensure that Chinese aggression triggers a "don't tread on me" reaction from nationalistic regional powers. (7/8)SEPTEMBER 1932

In this episode, Karl Bryan and Rode Dog riff about what truly motivates business owners, the mental models and frameworks that drive business growth, and how to keep both your coaching career and your client's businesses thriving for the long haul. Listeners get practical advice for marriage as entrepreneurs, lessons on why "no" is success, and a fascinating debate about profit priorities versus scaling. The hosts tackle both mindset and concrete tactics—delivering their trademark mix of humor and real-world wisdom. Key Topics Covered The Myth of the Status Quo as a Motivator Karl explains that improvement and "better than average" don't sell—people buy "new" and "next." Business coaches should frame offers and client conversations around transformation, not just marginal gains. Balancing Marriage and Entrepreneurship Entrepreneurship is tough on relationships. Karl shares candid marital advice for business owners, highlighting the power of vulnerability, touch (both emotional and physical), and remembering that you must do your own personal work. The Power of Saying No "No" is equated to success and focus. Karl draws examples from Warren Buffett's philosophy and iconic companies, illustrating that strategy is about what you refuse to do—not just what you commit to. Ask Better Questions—Create Authority Great coaches ask the questions that drive self-reflection and responsibility. The four questions from Jim Rohn ("Why? Why not? Why not you? Why not now?") become coaching frameworks to unlock motivation and action. Reinvesting in the Business vs. Paying Yourself The classic dilemma of "I reinvest all profits to scale" is debunked. The Profit First method is championed—automatically pay yourself, just like you pay rent, to avoid burnout and maintain passion. Profitability Before Growth Scaling doesn't solve margin problems. Most owners want to chase revenue milestones (like $2M) but end up vulnerable. The message: build profit into the business at every stage, control expenses, and understand your numbers. When to Dig In, When to Pivot Karl urges seasoned coaches (and their clients) to dig in and take advantage of compounding in business and career, rather than chasing constant change. Endure the "boring" parts for outsized long-term rewards. The True "Wonder Drug" for Life and Business In the Zen moment, Karl reminds listeners that exercise (not a mythical pill) is the secret to longevity, mental clarity, and business strength. Notable Quotes "In a word, no. Improvement is not a powerful motivator—sell 'new' and 'next' for higher conversion." — Karl Bryan "No is success. Focus equals the things you say no to." — Karl Bryan "Business is hard on marriages. Enjoy the wild bucking bronco ride, don't fight the ups and downs." — Karl Bryan "When profit goes, passion erodes." — Karl Bryan "If it's not profitable at a million, don't assume it magically will be at two million—growth often eats into margins." — Karl Bryan "Success is the same movie over and over for ten straight years." — Karl Bryan "The drug you really need? Exercise. It gives you everything—energy, longevity, social connection." — Karl Bryan Actionable Takeaways Lead with "New" or "Next" in Your Messaging Frame your programs and marketing around transformation, not incremental improvement. Coach Clients to Pay Themselves First Embrace the Profit First approach. Build profit in as a fixed "expense," automating wealth creation and reducing stress. Get Ruthless About Saying No Define what fits your strategy—and cut everything else. Borrow from Warren Buffett and Michael Jordan: focus relentlessly. Use Better Questions to Unlock Action Adopt Jim Rohn's four questions. Coaching is about guiding clients (and yourself) from thinking to doing. Prioritize Margin, Not Just Revenue Goals Don't be seduced by heady revenue milestones. Keep a laser focus on margins, expense control, and profitability at every stage. Lean into Boredom for Compounding Results Long-term success comes from consistency and sticking to the process—don't chase shiny objects or pivot too soon. Make Physical Health Part of Business Coaching Model and encourage exercise for yourself and for clients. It builds mental and business resilience.

Most grassroots candidates overlook the power of faith and boldness—Stephanie Trussell refuses to hold back. Running for Illinois State Representative, she shares how divine calling, unwavering faith, and connecting with her community are fueling her fight to restore Illinois' values. In a political landscape dominated by elitism and neglect, Stephanie reveals her heartfelt journey from a nomination as lieutenant governor candidate to knocking on doors in a deeply blue district. She talks about the importance of standing firm on pro-life and pro-family principles, and how she leverages her Christian beliefs to challenge entrenched liberal policies—from high taxes and unsafe cities to woke school mandates.… Continue Reading

Tramaine has a rule for herself and everyone she manages: what you allow will continue. She learned by watching what happened when she didn't set a boundary, and what happened when she did.With +15 years of managing teams across industries and seven countries around the globe, she spent a lot of that time being called difficult for doing things like putting her own phone number on an emergency contact list so her junior team members could have Christmas or pushing back against a request that would disrupt her team's weekend.Tramaine is a leader who runs toward the hard conversation, takes the consequence that comes with it, and has taken a demotion more than once because she decided the price of staying was higher than the price of leaving. We talked about what it costs to be called difficult as a woman in corporate, how she decides what's worth the fight, and why everything - every choice, every boundary, every stance - has a price. The only question is whether you've made peace with paying it.Links to learn more about Tramaine Teo:LinkedInAny thoughts?

This week, Shaun was messing around on MAL (like most Friday evenings) when he came across a particular theme entitled “Love Status Quo” which caused him to crash out on his daki date & he eventually decided to have Remington watch 3 episodes of a random show that's tagged with the theme to see if that's a valid way to classify a show's overarching thematic elements. Meanwhile Remington has eye drops all over his face. If you'd like to give us feedback, ask a question, or correct a mistake, send an email to AnimeOutOfContext@gmail.com. Like our show?

Michael is joined by Roger Zakheim, Washington Director of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation, and Rich Goldberg, Senior Advisor at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, to discuss the high-stakes blockade of Iranian ports by the US Navy.

Roger and Rich also discuss the realistic prospects for a future diplomatic agreement and the outlook for impacts on the global energy trade.

A disciplined approach to product, experience, and real estate is fueling a fast-growing food and beverage conceptPalmetto Superfoods didn't grow by chasing trends. It grew by challenging them.Hessam Shirmohammadi, co-founder and COO, built the brand around a simple idea: if the product is real and the experience is intentional, customers don't just visit, they come back daily. What started in San Francisco in 2019 is now a fast-scaling concept with 18+ locations, expanding across California and into Texas, with a clear path toward national growth.The differentiator isn't just açaí. It's how Palmetto thinks about retail.Instead of treating real estate as a necessity, they treat it as a strategic lever. Location isn't just about traffic, it's about community alignment. College markets, fitness-driven consumers, and dense residential pockets consistently outperform because they reinforce habitual use.At the same time, Palmetto is leaning into a model that most brands avoid: no two stores look the same. While others scale through uniformity, they scale through experience, keeping operations consistent but making each space feel unique. It's harder to execute, but it builds stronger brand connection.There's also a bigger play unfolding.Palmetto isn't positioning itself as just a food and beverage operator. With CPG products in development and a long-term goal of going public, the brand is building toward a lifestyle platform that extends beyond four walls.For retail real estate owners and operators, the takeaway is clear: food and beverage isn't just filling space anymore, it's becoming the draw. And the concepts winning today are the ones creating repeat behavior, not one-time visits.This isn't about smoothies. It's about building a brand that people integrate into their daily lives.What You'll HearWhy food and beverage is becoming the new anchor in retailHow repeat behavior drives real growthWhy location strategy is about community, not just trafficHow college markets consistently outperformWhy second-generation space accelerates expansionWhy experience matters more than efficiencyHow strong brands build daily habits, not one-time visitsWhere AI actually improves operationsChapters00:02 – Introduction and backgroundHessam shares his upbringing, early career, and path into entrepreneurship.04:31 – What is Palmetto SuperfoodsBreaking down the concept, product differentiation, and early growth.05:26 – Scaling the brandFrom one location to 18+, including expansion into new markets.06:35 – Long-term visionPlans for national growth, CPG, and building a lifestyle brand.08:05 – Unit economics and real estate strategyHow store size, location, and performance vary across markets.09:30 – Origin storyHow a Brazilian café and authentic açaí sparked the concept.13:05 – Day-to-day as COOWhat leadership looks like in a fast-scaling brand.15:02 – Using AI and systemsHow technology is improving efficiency and decision-making.16:34 – choosing Sacramento (UV)Why college markets and demand signals drove site selection.21:37 – Site selection strategyWhy second-generation spaces are a key growth lever.23:14 – Differentiation in retailWhy every store is intentionally designed to feel different.26:16 – Nostalgia and retailA conversation on extinct retailers and emotional connection to brands.

Why is it that everyone, men and women included, are always so ready to believe the worst in women.

In 2025, the Deaconess Foundation partnered with St. Louis nonprofit Vision for Children at Risk to launch the NextGen Grantmaking Initiative. The approach reimagines philanthropy by placing decision-making power in the hands of young people. Led by VCR's Youth Advisory Council, the initiative awarded a total of $100,000 to five local programs dedicated to community-building, housing, mental health services, and substance use intervention for young people. Alicia Selmon, a Harris Stowe State University junior, describes how she and fellow VCR Youth Advisory Council peers approached the grantmaking process. Rob Donnelly, founder and executive director of Opportunity House — one of the initiative's awardees — speaks to how NextGen Grantmakers has impacted his organization's work providing long-term housing and mental health support to queer young people ages 17-24.

In this episode of John Solomon Reports, we engage in a candid conversation with Congressman Tim Burchett from Tennessee. Burchett shares his straightforward views on the urgent need for voter ID laws and the troubling state of government inefficiency. He expresses his frustration with the Senate's slow response to critical issues, including alarming findings about non-citizens voting and the necessity of protecting election integrity.Burchett highlights recent developments, such as a grand jury subpoena in Maricopa County and a raid in Fulton County, and emphasizes the importance of addressing voter fraud. He draws a compelling analogy between illegal voting and serious crimes, urging Americans to recognize the significance of every vote. The congressman believes that public pressure can lead to meaningful change in the Senate, and he discusses the misconceptions surrounding voter ID requirements.Additionally, Burchett reveals his plans to introduce legislation aimed at eliminating the capital gains tax on property sales, a move he believes will benefit retirees and stimulate the economy. He also addresses the challenges of navigating a Congress that often prioritizes bureaucracy over efficiency.Next, we explore the intriguing developments in California politics as Democrat Party chair Rusty Hicks calls for candidates unlikely to win to withdraw from the race. With midterm elections approaching, a petition for voter ID requirements has garnered significant support, potentially changing the political landscape in the state. Legal expert and conservative commentator Sam Mirejovsky joins John and Amanda to discuss the implications of these developments, including the possibility of a Republican victory in the governor's race and the impact of voter ID laws.Sam provides insights into the upcoming Supreme Court cases that could reshape electoral dynamics, including issues surrounding ballot counting, racial gerrymandering, and the representation of illegal immigrants in apportionment. He emphasizes the potential consequences for the Democratic Party if these cases are decided in favor of conservative positions.The conversation also touches on the recent actions of Democrats in Congress regarding Iran, revealing a surprising divide within the party on foreign policy. Sam critiques the Democratic stance and highlights the disconnect between party leaders and the American public's views on terrorism.Finally, Shannon Davis, CEO of American Alternative Assets, provides insights on navigating the current economic landscape. Shannon explains the limitations of the Social Security cost of living adjustments and how retirees are effectively losing ground financially. He shares valuable strategies for protecting retirement savings through tangible assets like gold and silver, which historically outperform traditional investments during times of market volatility.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
