Honest feedback, and deliberate practice are the foundations of real self improvement. Episode Summary In this episode, Big Keith and I chop it up with Jon Dufresne of Kinetic Consulting. We explore his ever-evolving approach to firearms training, dive into the challenges and realities of night vision for both civilians and law enforcement, and get his take on gear like ballistic helmets, ear protection mounts, and weapon lights. Plus, we discuss current events around drones, surveillance, and the impact of gun control legislation in New York and New Jersey. We also share some thoughts on the importance of setting goals, practicing regularly, and balancing technology and privacy in today's world. Call to Action 1.

Kings River Custom – Artisan-quality, bespoke firearms and knives. Discover their craftsmanship at KingsRiverCustom.com Key Takeaways Jon's training philosophy treats curriculum as a living document, always updated with improvements and student feedback. "See The Night," Jon's night vision company, focuses on not just supplying night vision gear, but educating users with hands-on integration and white-glove service—mainly for law enforcement, but open to civilians. Deliberate, regular practice (even dry fire for 10 minutes a night) is essential—once-a-year training isn't enough, especially when it comes to high-stress situations like home defense or active shooter response. PCCs (Pistol Caliber Carbines) have limitations—reliability and performance at distance can be serious issues for both civilians and law enforcement. Weaponized Geometry is Jon's class tailored for solo, non-team room clearing, with emphasis on realistic expectations and skill development. Including your kids in training (even in dry fire!) builds healthy lifelong habits. Gear matters: things like helmet covers, counterweights, helmet-mounted lights, and ear protection mounts each have specific pros and cons—Jon breaks it all down. Drones, AI, and surveillance are a double-edged sword, increasing both convenience and risks to personal privacy. Legislative news: New Jersey's assault weapon and magazine ban overturned, and federal efforts push for American-made weapons to equip the military.

Six month later, the game is live on Gamefound, fully funded, and knocking down stretch goals. I've already backed at the Terraformer level and can't wait to get my hands on this stuff.

This headline formula works for every customer...confident or not! This week, Nate breaks down a single copywriting structure he's tested across every brand he's worked with: "Our [product] is [adjective] and [adjective], just like the [customers] who use it." Sounds simple. The psychology behind it pretty complex though! We dig into why this format hits differently, how it flatters the buyer who already sees themselves that way, and motivates the one who wants to. Plus: how to pick the adjectives that actually do the heavy lifting, why customer reviews are the starting point (not the finish line), and how the winning words from a headline test should be dictating your next photo shoot.

Anika sat down with Katie Krimitsos to explore one of the most counterintuitive business pivots in podcasting history. The conversation revealed the realities of walking away from a successful coaching business to launch the Women's Meditation Network, the process of recognizing the difference between intuition and fear, and how she scaled one podcast into a massive 24-show network. Katie's journey offers a masterclass in alignment, strategic audience building, and honoring your creative evolution while prioritizing family.In This EpisodeThe origins of Biz Women Rock and the power of being a first-mover in the podcast spaceThe terrifying moment intuition told Katie to walk away from her first six-figure yearWhy the most powerful business strategy is distinguishing between your true "voice" and the "noise"The messy, 18-month transition of running two businesses while raising a toddler and a newbornHow to utilize paid ads, app features, and cross-promotions to guarantee podcast growthThe strategy behind building a 24-show network and why not every podcast has to be a massive moneymakerLicensing content, internal product building, and creating a robust, high-converting funnelWhy creative expression—not just profit—must remain the driving force of your workTimestamps00:00 Introduction: The counterintuitive pivot to a 170-million listen empire 01:14 Discovering the power of podcasting in 2013 and launching Biz Women Rock 05:36 The defining moment of intuition: Walking away from a six-figure business 10:30 Launching the Women's Meditation Network and recognizing the open market gap 14:41 How to separate the true voice of intuition from the noise of ego 22:05 Tactical podcast growth: Using paid ads on smaller podcast apps 26:28 The power of cross-promotions and episode swaps for audience sharing28:39 Expanding from one show to a 24-podcast network 38:08 Internal product building and licensing content to third-party apps 46:28 The mind-body-soul connection and finding new creative fulfillment 51:43 Favorite mantra: Why "It's all a game" is the best mindset for successKey Insights & TakeawaysInsight 1: True Intuition Requires Stillness and Practice The voice of intuition is often drowned out by the "noise" of ego, fear, and external expectations. Katie emphasizes that distinguishing between the two requires daily practice in small things—like listening to what your body actually wants to eat—so you can trust the voice when it asks you to make massive business pivots.Insight 2: Strategic Investment is Necessary for Scale While organic growth is important, Katie actively invested in paid advertisements on smaller podcast apps to acquire listeners at a defined cost-per-subscriber. She also leveraged cross-promotions and episode swaps with complementary shows (like sleep podcasts) to consistently bring in highly targeted new listeners.Insight 3: The Network Model Allows for Niche Experimentation Building a 24-show network means that not every podcast has to carry the financial weight of the business. Massive shows (like Sleep Meditation for Women) generate the primary revenue, which affords Katie the freedom to launch highly-niched shows (like Meditation for Panic Attacks or Meditation for Kids) that serve smaller, specific audiences without financial stress.Insight 4: Your Product Can Be Monetized in Multiple Ways Katie recognized early on that her meditations (the MP3/MP4 files) were the actual products. Instead of relying solely on podcast advertising (CPM), she distributes and licenses her content to third-party apps (like Insight Timer and Aura), creating multiple, passive revenue streams from the exact same content.Insight 5: Creative Expression is the Ultimate Driver of Business A business can be highly profitable, but if the founder feels "gray" or "blah," it's often a sign of suppressed creativity. Katie highlights the importance of continually evolving the business—such as incorporating physical well-being into her mind-soul offerings—to ensure the work remains fulfilling and energetically aligned.Resources & Links MentionedWomen's Meditation NetworkMeditate to Magic CourseAbout Katie KrimitsosKatie Krimitsos is the founder and CEO of the Women's Meditation Network, a massive media empire that has garnered over 170 million listens. A pioneer in the podcasting space, she previously hosted the successful Biz Women Rock podcast before making a radical pivot in 2018 to follow her intuition into the meditation space. Today, she manages a network of 24 distinct meditation podcasts while prioritizing time freedom and raising her two daughters.Connect with Katie KrimitsosWebsite: https://womensmeditationnetwork.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/katiekrimitsos/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/womensmeditationnetworkFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/womensmeditationnetworkSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Sebastian breaks down his Father's Day weekend in Austin, highlighted by a questionable online knife-shopping purchase. Then, the guys debate a serious party faux pas: is it ever okay to have your own personal booze delivered to a party where you're just a guest? Plus, existential dread hits the show as they argue over how to answer heavy questions like "What keeps you up at night?" (Sebastian loves the vulnerability and Pete hates it). Finally, Pete complains about the overuse of the word "amazing," fears barefoot summer concert musicians, and questions the etiquette of asking a friend where the free tickets actually are.

A man walked into a room with a gun, a grievance, and nothing left to lose. The person who talked him down had spent 20 years learning one thing: the moment you make someone feel understood, the whole situation changes.Meet Derek Gaunt; he spent 29 years in law enforcement, 20 of those on hostage negotiation teams in the DC metro area. Now an instructor and expert coach at the Black Swan Group — Chris Voss's firm — Derek brings the same tactical empathy that resolved life-or-death standoffs into every boardroom, difficult conversation, and parenting moment he trains. He's the author of Ego Authority Failure and the newly released Fight Less, Win More — a practical companion to Never Split the Difference.

Hello everyone. Welcome to the latest episode of The Matchbox Podcast powered by Ignition Coach Co. I'm your host, Adam Saban, and on this week's episode we're talking about our perspectives on various forms of periodization, how to think about and deal with cramping, and whether or not the HR data you see while watching World Cup XCOs is accurate.   As always, if you like what you hear, share this with your friends and leave us a five star review and if you have any questions for the show drop us an email at matchboxpod@gmail.com or head over to ignitioncoachco.com and fill out The Matchbox Podcast listener question form.    Alight let's get into it!   For more social media content, follow along @ignitioncoachco @adamsaban6 @dizzle_dillman @dylanjawnson @kait.maddox       https://www.youtube.com/c/DylanJohnsonCycling https://www.ignitioncoachco.com  https://www.youtube.com/@DrewDillmanChannel   Intro/ Outro music by AlexGrohl - song "King Around Here" - https://pixabay.com/music/id-15045/    The following was generated using Riverside.fm AI technologies   Episode Summary In this episode, the hosts answer listener questions about wave periodization, cramping, and heart rate data in elite mountain bike racing. They break down why traditional periodization still tends to outperform more randomized approaches, explain why cramping is often more neurological than nutritional, and discuss why pro athletes' heart rates can look surprisingly low on broadcast overlays. Throughout the conversation, they emphasize that structure, specificity, and training consistency matter more than trying to overcomplicate the plan.   Timestamps 00:01 — Introduction and first listener question on wave periodization 01:16 — Comparison of normal, reverse, and randomized periodization in a study 03:12 — Why standard periodization appeared to work best 04:49 — Caitlyn's perspective: keep it simple unless race specificity demands otherwise 05:46 — When wave-like training might make sense for endurance mountain biking 08:33 — Why randomized training can still work, but may be less optimal 10:08 — How mid-season training can accidentally resemble wave periodization 11:01 — Why base blocks don't necessarily erase VO2 max gains 12:44 — Recovery and fatigue concerns with repeated threshold blocks 14:17 — New question: what to do about cramping 15:27 — Pickle juice, mustard, and why sharp flavors can help cramps 16:25 — Cramping as a fatigue and genetics issue, not just electrolytes 18:27 — Adam shares his experience as a chronic cramper 19:54 — Pushing through cramps versus stopping or stretching 22:42 — Caitlyn mentions a study on spinal cord signaling and fatigue 25:26 — Why cramping is likely a neurological “stop signal” 27:08 — Next question: why elite riders' heart rates look so low on broadcasts 28:33 — Heart rate variability between athletes and why the numbers can be misleading 31:06 — Elite mountain bikers train for rapid recovery during race surges 32:31 — Broadcast lag and heart-rate lag can affect what viewers see 33:12 — Comparison to elite Ironman athletes and very low heart rates under load 34:27 — Tactical racing can make heart rates look lower than expected 35:01 — Short track racers are so evenly matched that effort can look more controlled 36:28 — Wrap-up and call for more listener questions

Send us Fan MailIn S2E38, we start with a creepy Skype story from Ian's time in Korea before getting into Robby sleeping thirteen and a half hours, waking up sore but mentally refreshed, and somehow turning that into a theory about humans tossing and turning for survival. From there, we talk Fortnite mobile players being way too good, self-revives, Ian taking Kai and Asher metal detecting, finding absolutely nothing but nails and earthy “steaks,” and the difference between kids who love getting dirty and kids who want nothing to do with it.

This week we get back to MLS action which includes a return of a worrying trend from the first half of the season: only playing one good half of soccer and getting dominated in the xG battle, this time to the rivals to the east in pink.Coach Rapha Wicky made some...choices...in his setup and lineup in the first half, and outside of the first 10 minutes or so, they generally didn't work. He fixed the problems of his own making in the 2nd half and the team looked much better, but had also dug a hole that was eventually too large to get out of and they lost the match 3-2. We'll discuss the why, as well as our general disagreement with his usage of Ian James tactically.Finally, we discuss what has gone wrong with the KC Current, which also feels like some galaxy-brained overthought and meddling, and get into a quick preview of this week's action vs. Minnesota and LAFCMusic by The Spin Wires

Jimmy and Tyler sit down with James, the International Distributor for Carbon Off-Road — a 10-year-old Australian winch and recovery gear company quietly making a lot of noise in a space dominated by legacy brands. James is a Kiwi who grew up on farms in New Zealand’s Taranaki region before moving to Australia 22 years ago. He found off-roading the same way a lot of adults do: by needing friends and buying a Suzuki. He joined a Suzuki club, met Carbon founder Dan through those connections before Carbon even existed, and eventually joined the company. Now he’s traveling the US in what Tyler accurately describes as a “homeless American gypsy” role — meeting wheelers, attending grassroots events, and slowly building the Carbon Off-Road name in the US market. He stopped in Sacramento on a layover to come on the show, having spent a week with Jimmy and Tyler at Trail Hero Expeditions. Carbon’s pitch is three words: lighter, faster, stronger. Their 12,000 lb flagship is the lightest 12K winch in the world — just under 58 lbs fully installed, aluminum housing, 480 amp max current draw, lifetime mechanical warranty on the gearbox, 5-year electrical on the motor and control box. It retails at $899 USD. The RS9 is their race-spec winch — 9,000 lb capacity, 80 feet per minute unloaded, and James jokes it should come with a parental advisory sticker because it will unspool 78 feet of spectra fiber rope in about a minute if you don’t have tension on the line. On the recovery gear side: Carbon just launched a full lineup available in three colorways — High Viz (orange, commercial/heavy equipment), Blue, and Tactical (so popular it exceeded all expectations). Their Essential Recovery Kit ($349 USD) includes soft shackles, kinetic rope, tree saver, recovery ring, gloves, and a bag that doubles as a winch blanket. The Tac 4×4 Kit ($599 USD) upgrades to spectra-fiber soft shackles rated at 18,000 kg working load limit, adds a utility rope (replaces the tree saver — works as a bridle, rock anchor, winch extension, or general purpose rope), and comes in a MOLLE-style bag. Everything is designed in-house in Australia, third-party tested to minimum breaking strength, and not white-labeled — James is emphatic about this. The show also covers: Carbon’s 10th anniversary camping weekend at Black Duck Valley (120 vehicles showed up despite two weeks of rain), what it’s like trying to sell winches at a trade show for 14 hours in a row, why James hasn’t been able to drive his own trailer-queen Suzuki Sierra much lately, King of the Hammers 2026 (“we saw a lot of winches stalling out — caveat: none of ours”), the Australia/New Zealand land access crisis vs. US land access fights, and why the name Carbon has nothing to do with carbon fiber. Bonus content includes the full Australia ongoing-topics segment: Vegemite vs. Marmite (James sides with Marmite, the New Zealand version), camping vs. glamping (coffee machine in the tent = crossed the line), and the fanny pack question that previously required Australian listeners to call in and educate Jimmy about what the word “fanny” actually means. James’s closing advice: In a recovery situation, don’t rush it. Take a breath, assess, and figure out how to do it safely.

Live from Atlanta, Christian Polanco and Alexis Guerreros deliver an immediate, high-energy live reaction show following Argentina's thrilling 2-1 comeback victory over England in the World Cup semifinal. The hosts launch directly into a scathing critique of England manager Thomas Tuchel, placing 100% of the blame squarely at his feet for executing an incredibly cowardly low-block game plan after Anthony Gordon put the Three Lions up 1-0. They highlight an embarrassing statistic showing that England averaged a meager 12% possession between Gordon's opening goal and Lautaro Martinez's dramatic match-winner. The guys break down the pivotal tactical adjustments and execution blunders that allowed the reigning champions to completely manipulate the second half of play. They analyze Enzo Fernández's spectacular equalizing strike against Jordan Pickford, set up by a composed pass from a slow-walking but deeply calculated Lionel Messi. The tactical breakdown extends to England's fatal defensive lapse in the 92nd minute, where a fresh Ezri Konsa and John Stones were caught completely asleep on the far post, allowing the shorter Lautaro Martinez to secure the victory with an open header. Beyond the action on the pitch, Christian and Alexis read through viral social media reactions from figures like Wayne Rooney, Iker Casillas, and Zito condemning England's hyper-pragmatic approach. They break down Enzo Fernández's standout performance as their "Stock Up" player while labeling Thomas Tuchel's decision-making as total coaching malpractice for "Stock Down". Finally, they react to a breaking medical report regarding Arsenal center-back William Saliba undergoing back surgery before looking ahead to the massive Argentina vs. Spain final matchup and sharing their closing tour details for New York City's Webster Hall.   Timestamps: (00:00) — Initial Reactions to Argentina's 2-1 Semifinal Comeback Over England.

He contrasts this with historic deterrence during the Cuban Missile Crisis, where Kennedy provided Khrushchev a "way out."
