In this episode, Mike and Ben break down the creator subscriptions, software, and tools they personally pay for, and which ones are actually worth it for Amazon Influencers and content creators.As you grow in the Amazon Influencer Program, YouTube, or content creation in general, it's easy to feel like you need to pay for every tool that promises faster growth. The truth is, most creators can go very far using free tools, and upgrading too early often leads to wasted money without improving results.We talk through the free tools every creator should start with, including Canva, iMovie, CapCut, and cloud storage, and when it actually makes sense to upgrade to paid software like Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or other editing platforms.We also break down the tools that can directly improve efficiency and increase earnings, including Oink and Viral View for Amazon Influencer product research and Creator Connections, Geniuslink for international affiliate linking, vidIQ for YouTube optimization, Keepa for product research, and ChatGPT for workflow efficiency.In addition, we share how we personally manage our creator subscriptions, including how to audit tools regularly, avoid unnecessary monthly expenses, and evaluate whether a tool is truly saving time or making money.We also discuss real-world creator tool costs, what we currently spend per month and per year, and how we decide whether a subscription is worth keeping or canceling.If you're an Amazon Influencer, YouTube creator, or content creator trying to grow your income while avoiding unnecessary expenses, this episode will help you understand which tools matter, which ones can wait, and how to build your creator stack the right way.________________________JOIN THE COMMUNITYIf you are looking for deeper strategy, accountability, and honest conversations with other serious content creators, the Creator's Leverage Guild was built for exactly that.Learn more and join here:⁠⁠⁠Creator's Leverage Guild⁠⁠⁠WORK 1-ON-1 WITH MIKE AND BENGet personalized guidance on content strategy, monetization, brand deals, and scaling your creator business.• Book a 1-hour coaching call• Save with a 4-session coaching package⁠⁠⁠Sign Me Up!⁠⁠⁠_________________________JOIN OUR FREE FACEBOOK COMMUNITYConnect with other Amazon Influencers and content creators, ask questions, and stay up to date on what is working right now.⁠⁠⁠Amazon Influencer Success Facebook Group⁠⁠⁠_________________________TOOLS AND RESOURCES FOR CREATORSViral VueMake smarter content decisions and grow faster.⁠⁠⁠Try Viral Vue here⁠⁠⁠Use code STRAHL10 for 10% off for lifeOinkTrack earnings and performance across platforms.⁠⁠⁠Try Oink here⁠⁠⁠Use code STRAHL10 for 10% off for lifeDescriptEdit podcasts and videos faster and easier.⁠⁠⁠Check out Descript here⁠⁠⁠Geniuslinks: Our #1 Deeplinking Pick!Try Geniuslinks!VidiQ: Our #1 pick for YouTube channel Insights!Try VidIQKeepa: Makes advanced product research for AIP a breeze!Try KeepaLasso: Deeplinking for Blogs & YouTubeGet LassoKadence WP: Great amazing websites for blogsNotion: Super helpful AI Agenthttps://www.notion.com/productCanva: So many uses!

Credit Crisis Stage 2 has been observed. Stage 1 is when money flows out of a bubble but is roughly still balanced meaning some uncomfortable fund managers but no big consequences like forced selling. Stage 2 is when that balance unbalances leading to bigger problems like forced selling. Today, we got confirmation of forced selling for the first time...and a LOT more. --------------------------------------------------------------------------This is the kinds of material we've been covering - at length and in depth - at Eurodollar University in our Deep Dive Analysis and memberships.

Stock market volatility has been moving higher since Christmas Eve as this undercurrent of anxiety refuses to go away. Some of it is AI related, sure, but deep down there is this nagging feeling the economy isn't turning the corner like they all said it would. So where do you go to find clues whether or not that has been the case. A perfect place to start is global bellwether Switzerland – which just confirmed it is in recession. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis--------------------------------------------------------------------------EDU's Memberships and Subscriptions. Go from getting blindsided by the markets to reading the eurodollar signals weeks before they hit.

From a polish standpoint, I think it does for sure. But personally? Ehhhh....Prime 2 is objectively a well made game. The polish is there, great story, graphics, soundtrack, exploration. It splits the game's map into 2 distinct worlds, and on paper that's a great idea (as Link To The Past proves). But in execution it seems to be little more divisive. And while some people love this game, I found the maps and dark world equal parts brilliant and frustrating as fuck.My guest this week is our resident Metroid junkie, Stpd Mnky.

Dan interviews Central Connecticut State coach Charlie Hickey, the longest-tenured Division I coach in New England, about how college baseball has changed with the transfer portal, NIL, and accelerated recruiting. Hickey discusses CCSU's late-February start, training indoors during winter, and challenges recruiting in the Northeast. He shares what he looks for in players, balancing freshmen development with experienced transfers, and replacing key pitching innings. They cover fall practice benefits, conference title expectations, and the difficulty mid-majors face in NCAA regionals versus SEC/ACC depth.

Everyone is talking about how AI will change your business. Almost nobody is asking whether it actually should. In this episode, Blaine breaks down what he's seeing across the professional world. Appraisers, agents, coaches, and business owners chasing every new AI tool that hits their feed. Subscriptions pile up. Hours disappear. Stress increases. Profit does not. Blaine is not anti AI. He uses it daily. He believes it is one of the most powerful tools we have ever had access to. But most tools on the market right now fall into three categories: time wasters, solutions looking for problems, and margin thieves. So how do you separate real leverage from shiny distraction? Blaine introduces the AMPLIFY Framework, a seven filter test to evaluate any AI tool before you spend another dollar or another hour. A is Autopsy. What dies when this lives? M is Multiplier. Does this give you life or steal it? P is Paycheck. Show me the money in 90 days. L is Love. Will your clients thank you? I is Investment. Are you building equity or renting a trick? F is Friction. Can you implement it today? Y is Yes. Can you say yes with full integrity? This is not just about software. It is about protecting your human advantage in a world racing toward automation. If a tool does not amplify your judgment, relationships, expertise, and impact, it is not leverage. It is noise. Stop chasing shiny objects. Start building something real. If you want to use AI without losing your edge, this episode is for you.

In this episode, we're diving into the "hellscape" (as we like to call it) of Google's AI Overviews and the rise of zero-click searches. While Google is celebrating record search revenue, publishers are seeing traffic drops of up to 38% as AI "sucks up" content and keeps readers from ever hitting your site.We break down a real-world case study of The Fisherman, a niche publisher that successfully pivoted by tightening their walls and leaning into their true superpowers: Content and Audience

I dig into the Kentucky Auditor's report that found over $133 million in questionable spending by the Beshear administration. The report found issues with:

If Netflix or Spotify doubled their price tomorrow, would you really cancel—or would you grumble and keep paying? In this conversation, we use subscription services we all rely on to explain a powerful investing concept: pricing power. We'll break down why some companies can raise prices without losing customers, what that tells us about their business models, and why pricing power matters when evaluating long-term investments—especially in an inflation-conscious world.Big Tech is opening the checkbook for AI. Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, and Microsoft are on track to spend nearly $650 billion in 2026 alone, even if it means taking a hit to free cash flow today. We'll unpack why this spending surge is happening, where the money is going, and what it could mean for earnings, valuations, and investors navigating the AI boom. In this week's Market Segment, we break down sector performance across the S&P 500 amid heightened volatility in software stocks, driven largely by renewed concerns over AI's disruptive impact. We also zoom out to examine how AI is influencing industries more broadly, and what a healthy market rebalance across sectors could signal for investors. Plus, we discuss the growing gap between consumer sentiment and actual economic activity and take a closer look at January's employment data to see what it may mean for the path ahead.Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C.

Sign up for Practi, a new platform that helps law firms use subscription billing.Here are the top 5 takeaways from this episode:1. Start Early for Maximum Lifestyle Benefits. Chris started his subscription model in 2008 during the Great Recession, which allowed him to build his practice alongside his family life. The timing meant he never missed his sons' games or important moments – a work-life balance that would be much harder to achieve if transitioning from big law partnership later in your career.2. Niche + Brand Name = Credibility. FFL Guard (Federal Firearms License Guard) became the gold standard in its niche. The trade name made Chris's solo practice appear larger and more established than it was, while his deep specialization in federal firearms law created a defensible market position. Regulators even recommend his services off-the-record.3. Monetize Your Work Product Repeatedly. Chris built an online library, training courses (via Thinkific), and client portal where the same legal knowledge gets sold multiple times. As he learned from a mentor: “No man ever made millions billing by the hour.” The key is creating systems that generate revenue while you sleep.4. Annual Subscriptions with Payment Flexibility Work. Chris requires minimum one-year engagements but offers clients the choice to pay annually (at a discount) or monthly. This SaaS-style approach provides cash flow flexibility while ensuring enough time to build proper compliance infrastructure for clients. He ethically provides opt-out notices before renewal.5. Selling Prevention is Harder Than Selling Cures. The biggest challenge is convincing clients to pay $2,500/year proactively rather than $25,000 when disaster strikes. Chris positions himself as an “exterminator” – the reason clients don't see problems is because he's preventing them. This requires strong sales skills, public speaking, and building long-term trust and reputation.Bonus insight: Chris's tech stack evolved from Salesforce to Zoho (CRM), uses Grasshopper for phones, Thinkific for courses, and even adapted a debt collection tool (CHAX) for recurring check payments - proving you don't need perfect systems to succeed, just functional ones that work for your practice.__________________________Want your question to be answered on a future show?

We really, really messed up the jobs data the past few years, we got it almost completely wrong, but trust us, we're good now. That's what the BLS is saying today about its estimates for jobs and employment and right now no one is buying it. Why should they? The agency screwed up so badly it now admits there were 1.03 million fewer payrolls as of December than it previously thought.

Is Leftist Rage About to Turn as BLOODY as the French Revolution?!  The Glenn Beck Podcast Watch this video at- https://youtu.be/X5trx7DtdtE?si=jMNcv2NZydqM2xpb Glenn Beck 1.67M subscribers 66,023 views Premiered 7 hours ago The Glenn Beck Podcast What if the rage tearing through America today is the exact same rage that turned the French Revolution into a bloodbath? Nationally acclaimed legal scholar Jonathan Turley sits down with Glenn to unpack his new book, "Rage and the Republic: The Unfinished Story of the American Revolution." Through the sharp lens of Thomas Paine — the revolutionary firebrand who played a role in both the American triumph and the French catastrophe — Turley delivers a chilling warning: We've been here before. He draws parallels between the mob-driven chaos of history and today's furious calls to trash the Constitution, pack the Supreme Court, and let raw majorities run wild. Turley spotlights the Minnesota riots: Are they an "insurrection" or a stark symptom of something far more dangerous? Turley suggests the Clinton-Epstein scandal should be "the world's fastest trial" and confronts the AI and robotics revolution head-on, warning of mass unemployment and proposing a solution. The American experiment hangs in the balance. Will we repeat the French nightmare or rediscover the genius that saved us the first time?

So I finally fired it up for a Valentine's week episode of RTG, and dammit, it's true. Sega did what Nintendidn't.For the record, I really like both games. But the Sega version looked better, sounded better, and killed me better. I found it much harder than its SNES counterpart, and that's a good thing. Great fucking game.Pending RTG Hall of Famer Mark McCue is my guest this week (as he was for the SNES episode all those years ago), and we both agree that while any Aladdin is good Aladdin, this is the premium experience.And before we make a wish, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week someone asks why games have such short times in the spotlight these days and why the gaming world is so quick to move onto the next big thing?

It was a trio of reports that turned an already shaky market into a disorderly mess. Private credit stocks were hit hard as were cryptocurrencies after ADP, Challenger and a delayed release from the BLS each overwhelmed expectations.

Sign up for Practi, a new platform that helps law firms use subscription billing.Here are the top 5 takeaways from this episode:1. The Transformation Economy is the Future of Professional Services. Professional services are evolving beyond commodities → goods → services → experiences to transformations. Clients will pay for meaningful life/business changes (opening a business, planning legacy, scaling to $1M) rather than just deliverables. Transformations subsume all previous economic levels and are best monetized through subscriptions.2. Subscription vs. Recurring Revenue: A Critical Distinction. There's a fundamental difference between recurring (predictable repeat billing) and reoccurring (periodic invoicing). True subscription models create 5-10x higher business valuations and require upfront payment, automation, and a membership mindset—not just monthly invoicing for the same service.3. Nature of Work Trumps Scope of Work. Instead of selling defined scopes (hours, tasks, deliverables), professionals should sell nature of work (bookkeeper vs. controller vs. CFO; pair of hands vs. expert vs. collaborator). This shifts focus from transactional outputs to strategic relationships and enables premium subscription pricing.4. The Billable Hour Persists Due to Inertia, Profitability, and Technology Gaps. Despite decades of criticism, hourly billing survives because: (1) it's still profitable enough, (2) switching requires overcoming massive inertia, and (3) existing legal/accounting tech is built to optimize billable hours rather than enable alternative models. Bottom-up transformation (solo practitioners first) is more feasible than top-down.5. AI Won't Replace Human Expertise—It Will Enhance It. While AI can handle execution (like robotic surgery or document drafting), clients will still want human subject matter experts for consultation, strategy, and decision-making. The key is “prescription before diagnosis”—professionals must diagnose before prescribing solutions, and AI should augment rather than replace that consultative relationship.__________________________Want your question to be answered on a future show?

Send us a textAI is everywhere. Subscriptions are everywhere. And somehow, everyone feels more tired than helped. In this episode of the Mike & Blaine Podcast, we dig into the very real rise of AI fatigue and subscription fatigue—and why tools that promise speed and leverage often end up doing the opposite. Businesses keep layering on AI features, dashboards, and monthly tools, assuming more capability automatically means more value. Spoiler: it doesn't.We unpack how companies unintentionally train customers to cancel by over-selling potential and under-delivering practical outcomes. When software value lives in theory instead of day-to-day use, it's always the first line item to get cut. We talk about why underused tools feel expensive no matter the price, how AI has become a checkbox instead of a strategy, and why “just add AI” is not a business model.This conversation goes beyond tech trends and into real business strategy. If you're building products, pricing subscriptions, or running a company that relies on recurring revenue, this episode breaks down what real value actually feels like to customers—and how clarity, simplicity, and outcomes beat novelty every time. We also connect the dots between tool overload, decision fatigue, and why leadership teams are quietly overwhelmed even while spending more than ever on software.If you've ever looked at your stack and thought, “We should be getting way more out of this,” or wondered why customers churn even when your product is objectively powerful, this episode will hit uncomfortably close to home.Grab a drink, listen in, and if you enjoy the conversation, help keep the podcast going—visit https://mikeandblaine.com to buy us a beer

This game's pretty sick.If you haven't played it, it's a standard sidescrolling shooter/platformer, but with one catch: no jumping. All your platforming is done with a grappling hook. It's a really ambitious concept with a learning curve to be sure, but for the most part I think it works great. Add in a map to explore, a story (kinda) and hitler's exploding head (seriously), and you have yourself a Commando that's Bionic, my friend.My buddy David Rae makes his return to the show this week and we're finally talking the game he's been holding me to play since RTG started. We're getting into the map, the difficulty, the grappling hook adventures, and yes of course, killing Hitler. All par for the course when it comes to the NES.And before we grapple I deliver another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week someone asks if RTG will ever join the video podcast ranks? What forgotten series needs a revival next? And am I planning to check out the Virtual Boy games on the Switch 2??Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too!

What is a “ReView” episode, you might ask? Well, it's my highly-clever (ok not really) name for episodes where I go back and revisit an older title I haven't seen in a long time, and see if what I remember (and what my opinions on it) are still the same now that some time's gone by. This month, Animeigo's Kickstarter bluray for Dagger of Kamui found it's way to my doorstep one cold December morning...so what better time to revisit this 80s Rintaro classic? This movie truly has everything: Ninja, monks, psychedelic flashing colors, cowboys, treasure hunts, a banger soundtrack, and even Mark Twain! But is that truly enough to make this movie great?

I played half of the first game back in the day, checked out and never came back. So I fired the OG up last week and played most of it, and while I can't call myself a super fan or anything, I'm intrigued to see what comes next with the series.The concept itself is rock solid, and there's some really fun mechanics here. The problem is you use them to do the same 5 things over and over again. I like the idea but I need a bone with some more meat on it.My buddy Andre is my guest this week. He's an Assassin's Creed junkie and I think he made it his mission to make sure I played more of these games down the road. Let's unpack Assassin's Creed's rookie year.And before Ass Creed, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week someone asks if/how I think DS games will ever start showing up on the Switch 2? Are there any games I like ti play just for the world itself? And does the Xbox 360 belong in the "best console library" conversation??Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features Ubisoft games: Splinter Cell, Fr Cry 3, and Watch Dogs.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
