In this laugh-out-loud episode of The Ben and Skin Show, the crew dives into the most Texas thing ever: wall-to-wall storm coverage that turns into a slow-motion letdown. Join Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray as they break down the hilariously anticlimactic Sunday night storm that had all of DFW glued to their TVs — only to be met with… three-mile-per-hour winds.From Pete Delkus' jacket-off urgency to Jesse Hawila's deadpan “three miles per hour” wind report, this episode is a masterclass in comedic timing and local flavor.
Honestly… it's time Greta got a grip. This is a stunt. She's sailing on a yacht with a diesel motor, which they've been using because the sails haven't been up. There's been photos and video, Greta doing the Titanic at the bow, on her merciful mission to save the Middle East onboard the vessel complete with Aircon and TVs and Instagram. As for being kidnapped, this must be the first time a victim has broadcast their own hostage video. How does that work? It's a tiny yacht. How much aid can you actually have on board? There's no doubt Palestinians desperately need aid because of Israel's inhumane blockade. Unfortunately, they're not going to get any from this attention obsessed Swede. This is the problem I think people have with protesters. Not the ones who protest and then do something useful like become scientists and invent a solution to global warming. Protesters who protest for the sake of it and change causes with the wind. One day it's the climate and oil is the devil and the house is burning down. Then the next it's powering through the Med on a diesel laden yacht to rescue Gaza. And it's a bit like a drug. John Minto is a case in point. Serial protester. Most recently seen promoting a bounty tipline for hunting out Israeli's holidaying in New Zealand. You name a cause; he'll get behind it. In Europe they're defacing ancient artefacts, throwing soup on paintings and confetti on the Court at Wimbledon. While they're doing all these ridiculous stunts, hoovering up social media followers along the way, they claim, as Greta did yesterday, that it's not about them. It's about the Palestinian people, not me, said Greta. The lady doth protest too much, methinks.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The USMNT took an early lead against Türkiye but fell 2-1 in their third straight loss under Mauricio Pochettino - the team's worst streak since 2015. Jimmy Conrad and Tony Meola breakdown the good and the bad from a game where costly turnovers proved too much to overcome. The new-look lineup started strong (6:00), Johnny Cardoso's mistake leads to collapse (10:04), and Tony claps back at "riff raff" comment (16:01). The guys evaluate the performances line-by-line (24:28), and cast their gaze forward to Tuesday's game against Switzerland (55:11).

Soooo the podcast is a little late today thanks to Woody forgetting that Cool Beans couldn't do it from the airplane! The good news is the River (Chelsea's kid) is doing better and people are sending in cool stuff. Then we talk about the SNACK WRAP wars that are starting up. There's a throw back that is happening that brings up some sore memories for Woody. You ever have the KNOCK OFF brands of things come back to haunt you? They are for Woody today (and a bunch of other people). The Amish are helping us live with less allergies. Some TV talk about a cool new documentary soon to hit our TVs. And what did we learn today? (Yes I know the segment about gambling got messed up....its a computer thing, and NOT WOODY's FAULT)
In this episode of The Current Podcast, we're joined by Rob Bradley, SVP of digital revenue, strategy and operations at CNN International Commercial. He shares how CNN has evolved far beyond its broadcast roots — and how it's now helping brands tell more impactful stories across everything from connected TV (CTV) and free ad-supported television (FAST) channels to TikTok and LinkedIn. Episode TranscriptPlease note, this transcript may contain minor inconsistencies compared to the episode audio.Damian Fowler (00:00):I'm Damian Fowler.Ilyse Liffreing (00:01):And I'm Ilyse Liffreing.Damian Fowler (00:02):And welcome to this edition of The Current Podcast.Ilyse Liffreing (00:09):This week we're thrilled to be joined by Rob Bradley, the senior vice rresident of Digital Revenue Strategy and Operations at CNN International Commercial.Damian Fowler (00:18):Now, Rob has played a key role in CNN's evolution over the last 10 years from a broadcast powerhouse into a cutting edge digital platformIlyse Liffreing (00:26):That includes launchpad, CNN's AI powered advertising tool that's been driving smarter, more targeted campaigns for nearly a decadeDamian Fowler (00:35):From global banks to tech giants like Samsung and even government launchpad has helped brands show up on CNN's platform in ways that are both innovative and effective.Ilyse Liffreing (00:45):So in this episode we'll explore that journey, how launchpad got its start, what it's become today, and how CNN is helping advertisers navigate a complex digital world using deep audience insights and data at scale.Damian Fowler (01:00):So let's get into it. So Rob, let's start by talking about Launchpad. Not everyone's familiar with it, but it's been designed to help brands market themselves to CNN's audience. So I know it's eight years old. Can you talk about the tool and how it's evolved to this point?Rob Bradley (01:19):Yeah, I mean, to take a step, media companies and news brands today need to be so much more than just a platform where someone can serve a traditional ad to reach an audience. Of course we do that and embrace that, but our audience exists in a multitude of different environments. Now, of course, o and O, which can be TV to digital assets, websites, but of course Fast and CTV now. And of course they're all across social, which means that when we're working with brands today, we need to have tools that enable us to reach audiences in all of those environments. Essentially our clients expect that from us. So we have to innovate to be in those places. And also of course, by utilizing areas our audiences exist in today such as social, it means we get a broader reach. So we try and of course a lot of brands are nervous about social, and of course we do compete somewhat, but I like to flip it on its head and think about how can we use audiences on off platform environments to our advantage?(02:16):So launchpad essentially is a good example of that. It's an in-house social media agency, essentially utilizes latest talent. I would say. I think people do come first that really understand the latest technology to help us understand our audiences both on and off platform. That did launch really just reaching audiences in places like Facebook, but now it's across all the meta platforms, YouTube, LinkedIn, TikTok, and more. And over the years that team, through utilizing technology, have automated processes. We understand sentiment of what people are consuming, how they feel against our content that we distribute both on and off platform. And then we use those insights to indeed empower the next piece of creative, let's say. And it feeds into our brand studio, which is called CNN Create, which actually touches about 70% of our campaigns now. So it's all about the way we go to market is really about selling stories and content and then utilizing the impressions and volume of scale we have around that in a smart way.Ilyse Liffreing (03:15):And today, CNN Parent Company, Warner Brothers Discovery has only massively grown since the launch of launchpad and has so many touchpoint and audience insights. You have the entirety of the Harry Potter world and DC comments to seen in news. How do you make sense then of all that data and how does it come together to benefit a launchpad campaign?Rob Bradley (03:41):So first of all, I'd say there's still a job to do and an opportunity of gathering all that together because there's so many touch points that both can power the marketing of movies that say as well as the targeting of campaigns. And those targeting of campaigns can of course be owned and operated environment. So again, we can push audience insights into social platforms to target through tools like launchpad, but ultimately by understanding who our audiences are means that we can do three things. We launched a product called WBD AIM basically, which was actually born out of CNN, used to be CNN aim, and it stands for Audience Insight Measurement. And really it means that of course we talk about targeting quite a lot, that's where the rubber meets the road. But really as a severe successful media company today, you need to go to market with insight led sales.(04:29):So use that data to inform sales to the clients, proving upfront why you've got the right audience and why they should trust you. And then of course there's the targeting the audience piece, and then there's the measurement of proving what you have done has worked. And so that aim piece all comes together as one kind of data play. And where we have had success of bringing that together so far internationally is CNN Eurosport D plus in the UK and TNT Sport in the UK now exists in one platform. And also of course that's really good for programmatic as well. We can push those audience insights, put them into the marketplace and enable brands to buy programmatically against that. So very much in the programmatic space, we're aiming at the more premium PG programmatic direct marketplace.Damian Fowler (05:16):Can I just ask you off the back of that, do you see news as part of that whole package or it's not a sort of siloed separate piece of what you are offering?Rob Bradley (05:27):Yeah, that's a really good question. I think if you are a brand that wants an engaged audience and you want to be part of a conversation that's happening today or drive a conversation, news obviously makes sense. But of course I wonder if this is where you're going. News environments are challenged at the moment in some respect. There is a prevalence of I think, unfair news avoidance in the industry, particularly with very blunt keyword block lists that are being used, which is pretty well covered in the press and that is a major challenge. However, sports has a similar issue, right? Because words like shoot and shot and attack are used all the time just as though are news. So actually sometimes if people think of news straightaway, but there's a broader issue with that. And the reason why I mention that because actually news and sports is both live, it's what's happening today, it's audiences certainly where we sell it can be sports enthusiasts across both platforms at the broader end, it can be business decision makers, it can be C-suites, it can be high net worths bringing those audiences and ultimately linking it to what WBD has an abundance of is very premium, very trusted, very brand suitable environments you could say.(06:39):And that marketplace of WBD and WBD Connect is the programmatic marketplace will keep growing.Ilyse Liffreing (06:47):Now you talked about how your bridging basically social to programmatic. Have you seen one success in that so far and interest from the brands you've been working with?Rob Bradley (07:00):I think it's basically it was quite an early adopter of programmatic in the belief that it enables the human led work media owners to grow. And that has been proven in embrace technology to do what it does well, highly scaled targeted impressions that started on the website that say ever increasing on CTV and FAST for us, joining all that together, putting our own data into those environments, trying to work at the premium end of it so that we get the yield up and really embracing the technology to do that married with what only we can do best, which is linking directly with a brand, understanding a brand on their agency. In many markets we go brand direct though really understanding what their challenges are and what stories they've got to tell. And then coming up with this multi-platform strategy that can include programmatic maybe at the mid funnel or the performance end, but also linking it to a full multi-platform strategy, which may include CTV, fast Web and tv. And actually 80% of our direct campaigns include all of those platforms and include that social piece. And I think the reason why I've sort of spoken about social in is I think people often wonder about how we can utilize it to make money, but actually it's a really important part of our business where we're kind of using the best of what programmatic can offer, the best of what social can offer and then the best of storytelling.Ilyse Liffreing (08:27):Yeah, perhaps I would love to hear about a brand that perhaps you guys have been working with and how you are really measuring that success. I'm curious if any platform or audience perhaps outperformed your expectations.Rob Bradley (08:43):Sure. Well, I spoke about linking CNN storytelling that could have social impact in some way or drive conversations or change opinions. And that is when we have a really strong partnership with the brand, that's what we do for them. Really it's about how can we change perhaps a view or input a view into someone's mind that they may not have had about a brand based on facts or something that brand is really genuinely doing to try and make the world a better place beyond just perhaps selling a product. So CNN Embarks on a really bold program with Samsung recently, it was exactly a campaign that I said truly multi-platform include tv, digital, social, so use launchpad for off platform distribution and it really highlighted how Samsung technologies are being used to make the world a better place. Everything from the way they t trawl the ocean to dig up fishing nets and some of those fishing net parts are used in their mobile phones to a great story around how their TVs add access for the heart of hearing where we had a gentleman that was on stage with Beyonce who was doing sign language while she was performing, who went viral because he's an incredible character that really can literally make you hear the song using his hands.(09:54):It's amazing with hisIlyse Liffreing (09:55):MovementsRob Bradley (09:55):And he uses a Samsung TV at home, he feels it gives him what he needs considering that his hard of hearing challenges. So all those stories, it does involve a product, but really it's about a person, a human led story. We know that human led stories cut through a cluttered internet more particularly if they have some sort of emotional response that they offer, I can make you sad, happy, and ultimately the goal was to shift opinions about that brand. So looking at the data that we have, but 81% agreed that seeing the branded content that Samsung made made them think they were a more socially responsible company. 86% agreed that the branded content salt told them something about Samsung they didn't know before. And 84% agreed that branded content showed the value of Samsung as being more attention grabbing. So there's those hearts and minds movements that these campaigns at the brand's level kind of goals that they have. And that's really what we did with this campaign.Damian Fowler (10:53):That was great. Yeah, that's an interesting convergence of values and emotion and storytelling, but if we could sort of maybe look at some of the takeaways from the Launch Bank campaign and then get bigger from there. How did you measure success? I know you just mentioned some metrics right there for Samsung specifically, but did any platform or audience outperform your expectations?Rob Bradley (11:19):Yeah, I think we try to be platform agnostic somewhat when it comes to what the campaign goals are. So take within social, if the campaign of course is reaching consumers, we're more likely to use meta talk environments, YouTube, however of course if the campaign is more skew towards as a business audience, LinkedIn is more increasingly used. So it's not necessarily that one platform surprises because we'd set up the campaign at the start to meet those specific goals of that campaign. And within Samsung of course this was a consumer campaign, so those consumer platforms to reach and actually for that, TikTok did provide, and I think it was one of the first times that they'd ever worked with TikTok with a media owner and they trusted us because of the relationship that we have to deliver that campaign on TikTok. So that did have for one of the first times we've used it, a really important play within our overall multi-platform strategy.Damian Fowler (12:15):You mentioned insight-led sales, that means you have a good view of audience segments. Could you talk a little bit more about that and how you think about audience and how you break it down? And then the second part of that I guess is was there any unexpected reaction or behavior response from campaigns from these different areas of viewership?Rob Bradley (12:39):Yeah, I think we've had to get really sophisticated with understanding audiences and I'm linking who our audiences with our content. It touches on something I was talking about previously when it comes to the changes around news and news avoidance and brand safety and brand suitability. But that doesn't mean that all politics content should be blocked, for example. So I suppose there's the traditional side that we have of understanding our audiences of, okay, this is someone that's interested in reading a lot of business articles around finance. And then we can layer in personal identifying data where we have it and define and target that audience. But now we also add a layer in, we built a tool called sam, which is a sentiment analysis moderator, which also now kicks out a positive and negative sentiment score on our articles. So we know that if an article is about a scientific breakthrough, for example, that's a cure for a disease that may have innovation, technology may be very positive, but actually the word disease might have been blocked if you're using a more blunt keyword list. So with our clients, they trust us to use SAM to use more positive and negative targets. So we layer the kind of contextual element as well as the data element, and that runs on pretty much every single one of our direct campaigns.Ilyse Liffreing (13:56):Very cool. It sounds like a use of AI right there, if I'm not mistaken.Rob Bradley (14:00):It's an interesting one because we've had it for about five years and it is AI is machine learning and the reason we built it is because it ultimately unlocks more impressions than perhaps some of the off the shelf tools do.Ilyse Liffreing (14:11):Very true. Because also you're not just selling content to, you're selling a sustainable digital business. Would you say is your North Star when balancing that audience trust with monetization being CNN is such as a storied publication and company with multiple digital touch points?Rob Bradley (14:38):Yeah, good question. I mean, first of all, CNN's a global brand that's built on trust. We have some of the world's greatest journalists here and in a world that's growing in myth and disinformation is vital for society that they can rely on a trusted voice and reputable news organizations like CN. So I suppose our North Star is to of course lead with that trust but then make sure that we're essential for customers every day. So there's this sort of trust, but then there's also a premium environment and experience and that kind of goes hand in hand with advertisers going back to that storytelling piece or even putting an ad in an environment that has news. Brands want to be in a trusted place, so we really need to make sure that we're premium and that we're trusted first and foremost. But then also we need to embrace new ways of driving revenue.(15:29):We can't just rely on advertising, which is why we're embracing this direct-to-consumer business model to succeed over long-term. Linear in TV is still really, really important as of course is web, but exploring new digital monetization models that complement all those revenue streams are really important. So look fast is one of them, and CTV audio is one of them. We have CNN underscored in the us, which is kind of product recommendations and review sites, so e-commerce and of course as mentioned, the subs business, this direct to consumer business we're building. So we have to kind disrupt ourselves and embrace that to build a sustainable future.Damian Fowler (16:10):Rob, your role is you work for CNN International. So you look at the big picture obviously, and this is about a big picture question here, it's global, but it's also personal. So how do you think about that interaction, building digital products and content that both may be relevant at scale but also have to have local impact?Rob Bradley (16:31):I'll give you a kind of recent example. We announced plans to launch some CNM weather as our first standalone digital lifestyle product very recently, the upfront over in the us. So it is about expanding our content beyond news. As I mentioned, we already have travel, business style and tech and all of these different areas, but essentially builds on what we're good at, which is best in class live coverage of what's happening. Immense resources dedicated on the ground locally in this instance can of course be weather reporting and visual storytelling around weather. It's a way for CNN to bring these major weather events. So it may happen locally, so relevant information locally, but also huge interest globally. Think about the LA fires as a mass audience around the world, but also allows just simultaneously up to date weather forecast to help consumers get up to speed of what's going on there each day. And that's just a good example of something we've launched recently that has that both local, national and global relevance.Damian Fowler (17:29):I think it's always been a staple of good local news. Talking about right here in the US right now, there's some challenges to public broadcasting and one of the things that they have are these local stations that inform people about local weather events and that's crucial, especially in the tornado belt for instance. So I think weather obviously is key. And it's interesting to hear you say that obviously this is a fast moving space, the digital commercial space. As you look ahead, what are the biggest opportunities you see for CNN to lead here in this space? I guess AI is one of those things, immersive content. What else are you thinking about?Rob Bradley (18:10):Well, the CNN synonymous with video led journalism. Ultimately we're a video company that started on cable and is now in all these platforms that are ever expanding. But really we obviously want to continue and focus on that legacy if you like. So expanding our current subscription offering in the fall, as you guys say over there, autumn, as we say across the pond in the uk, essentially the launch of a new streaming product that's due ultimately in the US then but will soon be rolled out internationally as well. Providing a individual one stop place where audiences can access our journalism, our original programming, they can choose from live channels, catch up on features, a video on demand, and it'll be on all platforms from mobile apps, CTV and the.com websites. And it's going to be part of a new subscription, which is called CNN's All Access subscription.(19:01):So an example of embracing streaming video led alongside the other channels. And of course embracing the fact that our audience exists on mobile vertical video has been a huge investment for us. It's what consumers want, we understand their behavioral patterns. So we've basically grown our vertical video capabilities across our platforms and will be a key pillar as we continue. I also think it's about fostering direct relationships with audience, which is something that social does really well. Actually. We've already established some of these areas. Take Anderson Cooper's All there is podcast, which is fantastic, it's around grief, but literally has led to thousands of voice notes and interactions. Ranson himself so much that he built. And we built an online grief community, which essentially is where you can hear voices and other stories of people respond to comments and stories of their own grief and there's a really engaged community around that. And then of course podcasts and audio exists in audio, but more and more they're being recorded. And actually if you look at all areas podcast as well as the assignment of Cornish and Chasing Life of Doug, Sanjay Gupta, they're all video now as well and available there. So I think you're going to see news brands like seeing and leaning into this kind of personality led kind of opportunities as well.Ilyse Liffreing (20:18):Yeah, that's really exciting. The streaming space has exploded, obviously. And I'm curious how CNN All Access is going to differentiate itself enough or stand on its own in order to get those subscribers.Rob Bradley (20:38):Yeah, it's not necessarily a part I manage directly to be honest, to be honest with you, but I say CNN, it goes into another something we spoke about previously, which is around the history of the brand, the legacy of the brand, the power of a brand, right? No one can deny that CNN is a brand that doesn't touch all corners of the world and it's still highly, highly relevant. And it's funny, when you look at sometimes when you use the word a legacy brand or traditional media, it's almost used in some sort of negative connotation. Stay with me. You asked me a question, I'm going in a different direction. But sometimes it's used in this kind of negative connotation. But if you look at other areas like Luxury UMES or Rolex Legacy has a value. Auto Rolls Royce technology, I would say even like IBM or Apple, even their legacy is important because that brand stands for something as it does for CNN.(21:42):So those brands also innovate and make sure they're relevant for today. And I'd say streaming is just an example as well as podcasts as well as what we're doing. Launching the weather app is an example of CNN disrupting itself, making sure it's relevant today, but as well, not giving up on that legacy of who we are because that brand stands for something. So how are we going to stand out is having some of the best journalists in the world having one of the biggest brands in the world and making sure that what we do is authentic, fact-driven and trust base.Damian Fowler (22:15):That's great. So we've got a few quick questions here to hit you with to close this out. So alright. First off, what brand or publisher is doing something unexpected that you admire?Rob Bradley (22:30):Arnold Schwarzenegger's Pump Club. What love that You should have seen my comms team face when I said I was going to say that he's a yes. Firstly, I know this is an audio recording or a video recording, I'm not, if you can see me, I'm not someone that is a bodybuilder, but I do really, oh, I dunno. I do really like Arnold Sch and actually his pump club. I use it for the emailers, but there is a podcast as well. He is got an emailer, he's utilizing an ever-growing medium, let's say, from sending out email news. He uses his personal brand to form a relationship with an audience, his heritage in fitness, the rise of emails, as I said. And he shares really valuable information to a defined audience. It's really fact driven, it's really science driven today, which proves we do read it. He was reading, basically sharing a study on potassium and the benefits of increasing your potassium intake and how it can have on the heart. So he's got lots of links to real studies. The commercial model does mean he's trying to sell you a few things along the way as well. But I find it interesting and I think it's a great use of someone using all these tools that are available today to connect with an audience.Ilyse Liffreing (23:52):Yeah, that's a fun one. I like that.Rob Bradley (23:54):I love that there's oneDamian Fowler (23:54):Guy who knows how to connect to an audience. It's Arnie.Rob Bradley (23:57):Yeah. And do you know what? I saw him in New York last time I was there and he was sitting two meters away from me for at least two hours. And I didn't have the guts to say hello, but I was happy just being in Arnie's presence.Ilyse Liffreing (24:10):Yeah, amazing. If you could fast forward five years, what would you want CNN's digital presence to feel like to a 25-year-old?Rob Bradley (24:23):I mean, look super relevant, both from a personal point of view to also giving that individual information they need to know or should know about what's happening in the world. I think you don't want it too personal so that people are in their record chambers that say it should be video led. And of course it should be accessible on the platforms that that person wants. It should be ubiquitous, but it also should be predominantly on owned and operated platforms. It's important that we continue to invest in the core. And I know we spoke about social work, important to invest in the course, it should be owned and operated platforms that CNN has predominantly.Damian Fowler (24:59):And finally, late night breaking news alerts or morning deep dive newsletters. What's your personal preference or should we say news ritual?Rob Bradley (25:10):It sounds like a question as a news kind of person I should think about all the time, but I've realized, I go so deep in the mornings. I'm like within 15 minutes I've checked obviously CNN, but I've probably checked BBC, the Guardian New York Times. I check Fox News to see how they're approaching a story and then I'll go into podcasts on the way to work and then I'll probably check things like The Economist and things like that to go deeper as I've got more time. So I kind of utilize everything and I go pretty deep, but it probably tails off towards the end of the day. I think I've had enough by the evening, and that's more when I want to chill out of a glass of wine and watch a movie. I have some nice food.Damian Fowler (25:52):So, what was your what take, what was your big impression from that conversation with Rob?Ilyse Liffreing (25:59):Yeah, my big impression was really how, and this isn't surprising from CNN, but how they lead with storytelling when it comes to their managed brand campaigns. I love the example that he gave was Samsung who found when they managed their campaign across multiple digital touchpoints, they found that the audience 86% agreed that branded content told them something new about Samsung that they didn't know before. And that's really powerful when you're a brand like Samsung.Damian Fowler (26:34):Yeah, I thought that was very telling and I think even more the idea that CNN is really looking at and audience reaction, not just in terms of its own content, but in terms of the branded content. I thought that was also very interesting when we asked him about campaigns that have kind of caught them by surprise. And that idea that CNN International had launched a campaign that was targeted specifically a young affluent demographic in the city of London. But actually when they looked at the backend and looked at the measurement, it was hitting beyond London, outside of London to empty nesters whose kids had already left home, which was a surprising insight, but also allowed him to pivot the campaign to target that group. So I think the idea of audience strategy, being nimble with audience strategy and the fact that the digital frame allows a brand like CN International to be much more nimble right now. I guess that's an interesting takeaway for me.Ilyse Liffreing (27:39):Also, it helps that you have the breadth of data that a company like Warner Brothers Discovery does have across its multiple properties.Damian Fowler (27:51):And that's it for this edition of The Current Podcast.Ilyse Liffreing (27:54):This series is produced by Molten Hart. The Current Podcast theme is by Love and caliber. The Current team includes Kat Vesce and Sydney Cairns.Damian Fowler (28:03):And remember,Rob Bradley (28:03):If you look at other areas like Luxury UMES or Rolex Legacy has a value Auto Rolls-Royce technology. I would say even like IBM or Apple, even their legacy is important because that brand stands for something as it does for CNN.Damian Fowler (28:21):I'm DamianIlyse Liffreing (28:21):And I'm Ilyse, and we'll see you next time.
Target Market Insights: Multifamily Real Estate Marketing Tips
Sherry Peel Jackson is a retired IRS agent, CPA, and Certified Fraud Examiner who now dedicates her work to helping everyday people understand how to reduce their taxes, protect their income, and build wealth. With over 35 years of experience and a mission to educate the middle class, Sherry teaches strategies used by the wealthy to keep more of what they earn—including how to legally avoid taxes, structure businesses wisely, and protect assets. Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here. Key Takeaways Sherry exposes the disparity in how the IRS treats mom-and-pop businesses versus large corporations. Starting a home-based business opens up powerful tax deductions not available to W-2 employees. Keeping thorough records, especially receipts, is essential for audit protection—credit card statements alone won't cut it. The KPG system (Keep, Protect, Grow) is Sherry's core framework for achieving financial independence. Protecting assets through proper legal structuring, including out-of-state LLCs and foundations, shields wealth from lawsuits and unnecessary taxes. Topics From IRS Agent to Advocate Worked for the IRS from 1988–1995 before launching her own CPA firm. Witnessed firsthand how small businesses were targeted while corporations often negotiated huge tax reductions. Left the IRS to empower middle-class earners with insider knowledge the wealthy use every day. Home-Based Businesses and Tax Deductions Employees are severely limited in tax deductions—no mileage, phone, or home internet write-offs. By launching a simple home-based business, individuals gain access to numerous write-offs. Sherry encourages clients to start a business they enjoy to unlock these tax benefits without burnout. Recordkeeping and Audit Preparedness Debit and credit card statements are NOT valid proof during audits—receipts are required. Recommends either scanning receipts into apps or making photocopies to preserve them. Supports clients during IRS audits and often helps them overturn excessive assessments. The KPG System: Keep, Protect, Grow Keep: Slash unnecessary expenses, eliminate debt, and live frugally while building income. Protect: Use legal structures (e.g., LLCs in Wyoming, NM) to shield assets and ensure anonymity. Grow: Reinvest profits into physical gold/silver and real estate—not depreciating assets like TVs or cars. Advanced Wealth Strategies Uses infinite banking policies to store wealth and acquire real estate tax-efficiently. Leverages the Augusta Rule—renting her home to her business for up to 14 days tax-free. Teaches the use of trusts and foundations to legally reduce taxes and protect generational wealth.

Send us a textIf you're reading this, chances are you grew up with cartoons. We all grabbed a bowl of Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs on Saturday mornings, and sat cross-legged in front of our family TVs as kids to watch generation-defining 'toons — ranging from Bugs Bunny to My Little Pony to He-Man. But at some point, "cartoons" crossed a tipping point and became "animation." The Flintstones, The Smurfs and Scooby-Doo evolved into South Park, Ren & Stimpy and The Simpsons. And just like that, cartoons weren't just for kids anymore. So to what do we attribute the staying power of animation? Is it nostalgia? Is it that we embrace our entertainment growing along with us? How did we get from Steamboat Willie to Pickle Rick? Pop this particularly wide-ranging edition of FYF into your earholes, and kick it around with the boys.

Next in Media spoke with Conor McKenna, partner at Luma Partners, about what's held ad tech back from exploiting the creator economy, and why creators themselves - along with a new competitive dynamic among the tech platforms - may lead the industry in a whole new direction.
Poor sleep, brain fog, fatigue, fertility issues, premature aging, and even cancer—did you know these can potentially be linked to EMF (electromagnetic field) exposure? From cell phones and Wi-Fi to smart TVs and Bluetooth devices, we are constantly bombarded by invisible frequencies in today's digital world. And if you've ever thought, “There's nothing I can do about it,”—think again. In this episode, I sit down with Arthur, founder of HAVN Wear, to break down the science behind EMFs, their impact on the body, and how HAVN's NASA-inspired “space-tech” apparel blocks up to 99.7% of wireless radiation. Backed by scientific studies, HAVN isn't just protective clothing—it's health-enhancing gear designed to safeguard your body and support optimal function at the cellular level. If you're ready to stop absorbing damage and start living with intention—this episode is an increble health solution. ✴️ Connect with HAVN on Facebook, Instagram, or TikTok
Tony Meola and Benny Feilhaber take the reins of the show - and there's plenty to talk about. The USMNT drops its 60-man preliminary Gold Cup roster, and once again there's no Gio Reyna (04:23). Meanwhile, it was a silverware-stacked weekend for Americans abroad: Chris Richards and Matt Turner made FA Cup history at Wembley, four Yanks helped PSV lift the Eredivisie title, and Damion Downs sealed promotion and a 2. Bundesliga championship (27:06). On the flip side, AC Milan miss out on Europe - could that actually benefit Christian Pulisic (34:50)? Plus, a U.S. Open Cup Round of 16 preview (48:17) - can the Pittsburgh Riverhounds play giant-killer again? - and a head-scratcher from LA Galaxy - why announce Greg Vanney's contract extension now (55:20)?

It's the Zenspath Entertainment Network Podcast Episode 173! Jeremy, Rachel, Stephen, & Chase talk about Nintendo back tracking about Switch 2 VRR support for TVs, Nintendo stating games they develop won't be on Key Cards, information about the 12 free Switch game updates for Switch 2, Fortnite's AI Darth Vader gets pushed to the Dark Side by users, Bungie is caught stealing art for their upcoming game "Marathon", & more. Our "Big Question" for this week is "With Nintendo announcing that no media groups will be getting the Switch 2 before launch for review because of the day one patch, how do you feel this will affect players in regards to buying Switch 2, or does the sold out preorders make hardware reviews almost pointless at launch & ,more importantly, do you think this will hurt particular titles that likely won't have day 1 reviews for people to check out more?"

Where’s the inflation? With this week’s Consumer Price Index coming in softer than predicted (inflation at its lowest level since 2021, according to government data), a lot of people are wondering why tariffs haven’t pushed prices up. In the debut episode of Everybody’s Business from Bloomberg Businessweek, hosts Stacey Vanek Smith and Max Chafkin tackle President Donald Trump’s trade war, inflation and when the rubber will (if ever) hit the road. Consumer spending columnist Amanda Mull takes Stacey on a tariff tour through Target, explaining why import taxes have yet to show up in inflation data and how you’re likely to see them in the future. It turns out flatscreen TVs, pineapples and mascara will all manifest tariffs in different ways. Mull concludes tariffs could very well ruin Christmas. Then sports reporter Randall WIlliams joins to talk about why private equity has started buying up sports teams. It turns out teams are becoming more valuable as games dominate live television, attracting bigger audiences (and commanding higher ad rates). That’s got private equity sneaking into the game, pumping up prices and injecting billions of dollars into teams. Randall concludes that private equity won’t ruin sports (but Max and Stacey are skeptical). Finally, for the underrated story for the week, we look at the rising trend of rising sneaker soles. Shoe brands are creating ever puffier soles even as racing authorities try to put restrictions in place. Ultramarathoner Max realizes his beloved sport is in the crosshairs of controversy.

The U.S. exports billions of dollars worth of agricultural products each year — things like soybeans, corn and pork. And over the last month, these exports have been caught up in a trade war. U.S. farmers have been collateral damage in a trade war before. In 2018, President Trump put tariffs on a bunch of Chinese products including flatscreen TVs, medical devices and batteries. But China matched those tariffs with their own retaliatory tariffs. They put tariffs on a lot of U.S. agricultural products they'd been buying, like soybeans, sorghum, and livestock. That choice looked strategic. Hitting these products with tariffs hurt Trump's voter base and might help China in a negotiation. And in some cases, China could find affordable alternative options from other countries.Today on the show: what happened in 2018, how the government prevented some U.S. farms from going bankrupt, and what was lost even after the trade war ended.This episode was produced by Sylvie Douglis and edited by Jess Jiang.

Tiff and Dana discuss the numerous innovations happening in the field of pediatric dentistry, specifically minimally invasive care and maximizing shortened attention spans. Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: Tiffanie (00:02.2) Hello Dental A Team listeners. We are so excited to be back here with you. If you listened to an earlier podcast, I alluded to the fact that Dana and I were going to have some fun with a really cool podcast. I'm excited for this one. I think it took a little bit for us to prep for this one, but I think that's the world of dentistry for us. Dana, thank you for spending so much time with me this afternoon busting out a few podcasts here for the... For the listeners, how are you this lovely afternoon? Dana (00:33.698) Doing good, doing good. I'm excited to be here. I've had to reframe my podcast time to Tiff time because it helps really get me pumped up and excited for it. Tiffanie (00:39.768) I'll make it. Tiffanie (00:44.986) I appreciate that. I love that so much. It is our time together. Kristy started saying the same thing too. And, I love getting you guys on here and I can't wait to get some with Trish and all the other consultants that, that we have. think it's just so valuable for us to get the time together, share ideas. Cause you know, we have, we have our consultant co-labs, but this seems to be where the most ideas just like randomly spur out. Cause it's almost like we're coaching. when we talk about these things. So you're welcome to the world. Thank you to the world for joining us for our consultant time. It's my Dana time, my Britt time, my Kristy time. So thank you, Dana. I appreciate it. Today, I thought it would be fun. And I want to caveat this before I truly talk about what we're talking about. This is for everyone. We want to focus today on pediatric dentistry innovations. But I really think that there's some valuable tips and tricks in here for everyone and not just pediatric practices. I know a lot of GP practices see many children. I know a lot of pediatric practices that refuse GP referrals, which I think is really funny. And I totally understand because when I was in my GP practice, it was like we would take kids, but the worst kids we did not. And so I totally get it. It just makes me chuckle every time. Regardless, my oral surgery practices, you guys are seeing kiddos and by kiddos, mean like realistically 16 and under is what we're talking about here today. I know my my periopractices, sometimes you guys are seeing them too. My son plays lacrosse and gosh dang those teeth. just cringe every time something happens, mouth guard or not. I have seen, I don't know how many mouth guards fly across the field and they have stopped play because it's thank God. I thank God for this for these. rules and regulations, but it's part of the uniform. And so if they're missing, if they if if the ref see it fly out of their mouth, they'll call the bell stop the game so they can go get it. But I'm like, you got hit so hard your mouth guard blew out. Anyway, it's periodontist. I know you're seeing kiddos too. So everyone's seeing kiddos. And today it's just pediatric dentistry innovations and Tiffanie (02:57.342) I think, Dana, you said it well just before we got on here. There's not a lot of exciting new things for pediatric dentistry or realistically right now for dentistry in general. We've kind of hit the space of, we're gonna try this stuff out for a little while. So I agree with you there, but I think we've come up with some really good things and tested and seen some amazing things that are working for the generations of kids that we have right now. we were talking attention spans. So I know that that will come into play with some of the stuff we're speaking on today, but really, really honing in on, I think it's, again, it's going to come back to like that trust and that value and making sure that emotionally we're, we're emotionally evoking things for our patients, whether they're adults or children, so that they're comfortable, they're confident, they trust us and they want to return. For the kiddos, I get really emotional and I just love on the pediatric practices. I myself could never work in a pediatric practice full time. There's no way. I don't have the patience for it, but man, do I value and appreciate the work that all of you guys are doing and Dana, that you were able, that you've done and are continuing to do in your efforts as well. Because to me, I've done mostly GP and oral surgery. And I really had so many patients. I've met so many people that are so afraid of the dentist because they had a horrible experience as a child or because they had a parent who had a bad experience as a child that passed it on to them. Those were the worst for me, but I just value and appreciate the amazing pediatric practices who are out there doing amazing work and creating lasting. impressions for people because you've really set them up for success in so many different places. So whether you're a GP, a specialty, a pediatric specialty, no matter what a lot of these pieces we're going to talk about today are really going to help you set the stage and the tone for these people's lives. And Dana, you've done pediatric dentistry. Thank you. Praise to you. I just, you know, I love kids, but this Tiffanie (05:13.536) I just don't have it in me and I know that about me. I can consult them and I can spend a day and a half in office with them and love on those kids while I'm there and then I'm exhausted and need to go home. So I love it. Thank you, Dana for being there. Dana, I actually I really loved some of the things you were talking about, like the continuation of products and services and stuff that we're already utilizing. think GP and pediatric offices are using a lot of those. Tell me here with everyone listening a little bit about some of those pieces that you used and that you're seeing still lot of your pediatric practices are using and what have you seen just continue to innovate in the world of that. Dana (05:53.472) Yeah, I think one of the biggest things that pediatric practices are always looking at ways to innovate is minimally invasive care. So how can I get this kiddo treatment that they need improve what they came here with in a way that is as minimally as invasive as possible because of exactly what you said. think pediatric practices beyond yes, all practices have to work on experience pediatric practices are unique and they've got a parent experience and a patient experience and oftentimes the patient experience impacts the parents. experience, as I can tell you my mom heart, just for my mom heart too. So I feel like they have worked really, really hard in trying to find ways to treat kiddos as minimally as they can, right? And but yet still getting some really great results. So they have found a lot of things, you know, we're even starting to see a little bit of like, you know, non injection. Tiffanie (06:26.552) Yeah. Dana (06:49.088) anesthetizing and things like that that really really, know, SDF has made huge leaps and bounds. There's Cura.now for... What's the word I'm looking for, Tiff? Tiffanie (07:01.784) Keep going. Dana (07:02.7) Yeah, and so there's just all sorts of ways that we treat kiddos now that like didn't exist before and that is truly because we're looking at ways to treat them that helps create that positive experience and doesn't put them fearful in the dental chair. Tiffanie (07:16.492) Yeah, well, even Dana, I'm thinking too, even fluoride has come world so that they're not swallowing it or it's not as toxic, I guess is the best word to use there, or difficult because remember it used to, gosh, I remember the trays, right? I remember trying to shove those trays in kids' mouths in my office and I'm like, this does not fit. The doctor's like, no, it's supposed to be too big and it's just like fluoride foam is everywhere. So thank heavens those are. hopefully a thing of the past. But even in the world of fluoride for kiddos, like what have you seen in that world, Dana, that has transpired over the course of last few years? Dana (07:57.036) Yeah, I think, you know, obviously the big switch to the varnish, think to like, I mean, I've even seen some pediatric offices, like I had a pediatric dentist and she basically like reached out to all the pediatricians in the area and was like, fluoride these kiddos as early as possible. I'll teach you how I'll so it's just expanding like the reach on that too has been incredible. And I think just the education to the parent because kiddos, you know, they expose themselves to a lot of acidic things now. Diets have changed a lot over recent years and things in our food have changed a ton. And so as much as they can also just educate the parent on those choices and like, hey, we can kind of counteract some of those choices with Laura. really want to... do a ton of nutritional counseling happens in pediatric practices too, but it just kind of reinforces the need for as we see these things change, we've got to make sure that kiddos get access to that too. Tiffanie (09:05.462) Yeah, and I think that's space of innovation as well that you just mentioned, the nutritional counseling. That's not something that's always been there. It's been there to a level, right? We know like soda, and I remember telling kids or being told to swish with water after I ate my lunch at school because I wasn't going to carry my toothbrush, you're supposed to brush. Like I remember all of those pieces. But I think in the recent years, nutrition, I think nutritional counseling in general, in the health industry has become bigger. situation. It's become a bigger conversation and I know even standing in office with my pediatric practices, consulting them, watching them work with patients. I've been just amazed at the level of nutritional counseling that they're giving the kids and the parents. And like you said, we're working with the parents. It's two experiences there, but really honing in on what are you eating and how it's affecting. And I think one of the biggest spaces that I love the most, is really being able to see like... acid reflux, right, for one thing, but even just like the tongue thrusting, the different habits that they're able to see because of what the mouth looks like, and then they're able to correct it so early on and really build lasting changes. They can tell just by different visual things within the mouth, right? If there's gut issues, does your kid have an allergy? Like, maybe you should go check this out. And they're referring them back to their there are pediatricians to get nutritional counseling or to get these tests and things done, or there's a lot of them that can be done in dental practices now as well, but really honing in and looking further than we've ever looked before to ensure that these patients are as healthy as possible. And I think that's massive. That's a huge innovation within the pediatric world. And I think it's a really easy space for dentists and... Tiffanie (10:58.924) for pediatric dentists specifically to really get extra training in. It's offered, you know, everywhere. I've got, you know, we've got gym. trainers doing stuff like that, taking courses like that. So to be able to have your degree that you've got, your doctorate that you've got, and then add that aspect to it is just really, really freaking cool, in my opinion, and saves so much time and trouble and probably saves the parents a lot of time and trouble in figuring things out or finding out too late. So that was a huge one that you mentioned there. I think one space One, I love that you highlighted again that it's two experiences. It's the parent's experience and it's the patient's experience. And when I work with pediatric practices, like we're building out avatars to attract the parents that we want because they're gonna have the kids that we want. So we're not talking to the kids, they're not making the decision, we're speaking to the parents. One thing that I hone in on is the avatar, but then the second step to that is how do we ensure that the parent wants to come back? How are we making them comfortable in the practice? How do we make them comfortable with the diagnosis, the conversations? How are we integrating them into all of this as well? And making sure, like you said, my mom at heart, that the patients are well cared for. one space we're hitting with the generations, you know, the generations are getting further and further from us. But those generations that we're hitting now, there's a huge attention span differential between even our you know, teens right now already have like pretty low attention span compared though to like our Tiffanie (12:40.408) are four to eight to 10, like that 16, 13 to 16 is like, gosh dang it, this is kind of kind of annoying, you know, but then you get under 13. And it's like, holy cow, I've got about five seconds to grab your attention. And then you're gonna we were saying like, our kids keep saying, I'm bored. I'm bored. I'm like, oh my gosh, did I hear you say I'm bored before we get to the industry one more time, I'm gonna freak out. But their attention spans are so low. They're so small, because there's so much stimulation, constantly going around, that we have to take that into consideration, I think, within the dental practice, because we've got to keep their attention, we've got to keep them excited and interested and build an experience that they don't walk away frustrated by, because the parents are taking into consideration their experience. Like, did you have coffee on hand? That's a huge one for the moms out there. And then did the kid have a good experience? So I think those aspects are massive. And Dana, what did you, we talked earlier and you actually wrote this newsletter. So if you're getting this newsletter, good job, Dana wrote this one. If you're not getting our newsletters, you should go subscribe because they're pretty freaking awesome. and they're written by the consultants if you didn't catch that there. So Dana, what are you suggesting the practices are seeing practices? I think this works for all practices, by the way, these ideas here, but specifically pediatric dentistry is going to thrive with it. What are you suggesting right now to a lot of your clients that they integrate and innovate within their practice to help keep those attention spans? like here, that they're excited and interested? Dana (14:14.38) Yeah. Yeah. And I think it's like a twofold. How do I keep them engaged and interested and excited and make dentistry fun? But then also, how do I kind of distract them so that I can do what I need to do in that short amount of time so that they stay comfortable and calm? And so I feel like we're looking kind of at a bunch of different tools. see, you know, I know there's lots of TVs on the ceilings and and I'm even seeing some virtual reality. You know, kids are always like loving those oculus as I have a nephew that he's constantly like banging into the wall and you hear him on phone calls and I'm like, what's he doing? My sister was like, that's his oculus, his virtual reality game. And so it does allow you to kind of transport kiddos into the next world. So I think that it's, it's just coming up with how can we make dentistry fun? How can we make it engaging and make the patient feel like they're a part of the process? So these Tiffanie (14:42.808) Yeah. Dana (15:08.494) things that we use in general too but taking photos and showing them and talking about the icky bugs and like making it fun and in their terms and then also having tools on hand to be able to distract the kiddos that you can really do what you need to do very quickly very easily without minimal hands and minimal squirming so that again it creates that experience that you want them to have quick seamless easy in and out for them. Tiffanie (15:33.344) Yeah, yeah, the headphones are massive, right? I think the Oculus for the waiting room is brilliant. I know I've got to practice. beautiful practice and she has a theater room and so they she's got like comfy chairs in there and that's dark and the movies going it's the same movie that's playing in the back and so the kids can go into the theater room but that oculus idea or the VR headsets whichever one you you choose is a great idea to have a little room where it's obviously the kids by themselves for exactly what Dana said about her nephew, right? Kids are by themselves, but they're playing with that. used to do, I mean, gosh, this is so long ago, but I remember we used to have like a PlayStation one, you know, and it honestly drove me crazy. told you kids are not, I love kids, but. Dana (16:06.446) you Tiffanie (16:20.728) kids are not my jam for dentistry, but I would go crazy because it was the PlayStation one. So we had to flip the discs out, right? And so we had like 10 different games, but I had to keep them behind the counter and the kids would come up. But this is a little bit different where one, the kids know how to use this stuff. When we had the PlayStation, the kids did not know how to use a PlayStation. Kids were not like, they didn't understand it and they didn't get it. But now they're teaching us how to use this stuff. Like a six and eight year old could tell you how to use a VR headset. My kid, he looks at something and he just knows. And I'm like, how did you figure that out? He's like, it's obvious. It's not obvious. I didn't get it. Right? Like, that was not obvious, but it's fine. So all these these spaces of really making sure that they are super entertained. Like are we making them sit out there on their own phones or do we have things that they can do? Even as simple as like a coloring table. I know I had my boyfriend's kids the other day were walking through. It was old Navy and they were doing some sort of safety something. They had a table set up over the side with crayons and coloring sheets, those kids flipped. They were so excited, screaming. It lasted about 10 seconds, right? Because it's going to be over quickly. But even just having something like that or having iPads with the color by number app, kids are obsessed with that right now. But making sure there's some sort of, like you said, that distraction, but also in the waiting area, like where are they sitting? And what are you making the parents do? You know, the parents are sitting in their school on their Instagram. So how are you keeping the kids entertained so that both parents or both sides right are enjoying their time. So I love the VR headset. I love the the movies are still a pretty decent hit as long as you get bluey on there or something. I know it's got to be super relative. Apparently, the Disney movies are not super relative anymore. It's got to be bluey or bust. Tiffanie (18:10.552) But making sure we have those, think headsets in the back are really fantastic if they're going to be back there for a while. Or if you're going to be using the drill or anything like that, mean noise, have those noise canceling headphones so that they don't understand what's going on. And then one space too, Dana, that I think all practices are starting to implement. And I think it's brilliant for pediatric care because it makes it seamless and easy as the AI tools. So making sure you've got those AI tools, Pearl or whatever it is that you decide to utilize, download it and working because I mean, Dana, how often did you see, I know just in our practice we'd be like, shoot, like that was hard to see or we just couldn't get to it that something could have been missed, but also like you said, super non-invasive attempts. Dana (18:58.966) Yeah, yeah, I think AI tools are great clinical AI tools are fantastic as far as helping us diagnose again with like minimal contact within the teeth or in the mouth for the patients. And then even AI for like having a chat for parents because parents right typically work when the office is working. That's why those middle hours are so hard to fill and ding ding pediatric practices, right? So if I've got an AI bot that can chat with my parents after work can get them scheduled can do those things. That makes it so much easier because again, like Tiff said, we've got two experiences here but our target experience is that parent and so the more that we can make those things easy and again pediatric practices rely on volume right so bones are constantly Last time I was in a pediatric practice for a visit I was just like the phone does not separate in there are hundreds of phone calls every single day and so having an AI tool that can get the ones that we miss or that can chat with the parent via text or can be available for after hours those types are crucial for pediatric practices because that is when the parent has free time Tiffanie (20:00.504) So. Yeah, that's brilliant. That's brilliant. I think that's a wonderful tool. So AI in a lot of different areas. We've got the virtual reality headset, the Oculus or whichever you choose, AI pearl or whatever chair side to get as much value out of that appointment and that chair time as you can. And then also the AI communication tools. think that's brilliant. Virtual assistance is also a great way to handle that because they can work any hours. And so we've got a lot of practices Pediatric or not that are utilizing virtual assistance to catch those after hours and also I know a lot of practices especially pediatric practices are closed on Fridays or they're closed on Mondays open on Friday So you've got that you've got that four-day work week three or four days and so The AI tools, the communication tools or the virtual assistant can grab a lot of those missed opportunity phone calls. And I know from the marketing standpoint, working closely with the marketing company for a few of my clients, that is massive. being able to bring either of those tools in to grab those calls has drastically changed the marketing efforts and increased their results tenfold just because the opportunities were getting missed while we were closed. So I love those and that's brilliant. I think there's a ton of tools here. think kids are digital natives. Kids know what's out there. They know when you're not a digital native. So watch out for that. They will tell you they will call you on it. And if your VR headset is Tiffanie (21:33.07) is like, I don't know, an Amazon $20 ordered one, they'll tell you. tell you. I'm not saying go spend a ton of money on it. I'm just saying make sure whatever you get is going to keep the attention span of the child and that the games that are on there are quality. I think movies, things like that are fantastic. So my suggestion, my action items for you, really look at the patient experience. Take your dentist cap off. and say if I had to come here, what would I expect if my kid were coming here? What would I expect? And really look at what your systems and all the pieces that are keeping people's attention, what are those things doing to create that experience for your patient and your parent? and really take inventory of those spaces. Is there something that we can innovate on that we can just make it better, make it new? You always want to have that seamless experience and make it high end. And if we stay where we are, never innovate or change, we will eventually just die. So don't let that happen. Dana, thank you so much for your nuggets.

In a preview of this week's Pop Pantheon: All Access episode, Taylor Swift's eleventh studio album The Tortured Poets Department— a sprawling, 31 song, two disc, two+ hour melange of music from the superstar— arrived last April amidst peak Taylor cultural overload: her landmark Eras Tour had been globe-trotting for a year, she'd just recently dominated the Grammys winning her record-breaking fourth Album of the Year trophy for previous album Midnights, her non-stop fountain of re-releases of previous works seemed ceaseless, and her new relationship with football star Travis Kelce was plastered all over our TVs and social media feeds constantly. All of that made the album a lot to stomach for many outside of the artist's (massive) core fan base and Poets, though hugely commercially successful, was broadly seen as one of the pop icon's weaker efforts, including by the makers of the podcast. But with the power of hindsight, how does Tortured Poets hold up removed from all of that context? Louie, Russ, and friend of the pod Shaad D'Souza gather to discuss just that, plus each share their... um.. "tailored" versions which help prune the massive tracklist into something more manageable, and maybe good?To hear the rest of the this episode plus receive weekly bonus episodes of Pop Pantheon, gain access to our Discord channel and so much more, subscribe to Pop Pantheon: All Access at the Icon Tier.
