Episode 208 of the What Are We Doing podcast is pure chaos in the best way. I kicked things off, reminding everyone that yes, it's October. I said it about 47 times because apparently, I can't believe calendars exist. Then I dove right into the big releases of the week: Soulja Boy dropping his third album of 2025, Swag 7, and Taylor Swift's new album The Life of a Showgirl. I gave both their flowers, but let's be real, Taylor hijacked the whole cultural moment. From her track Wood (we all know who that's about) to the Jonas Brothers and Jackson 5 “inspirations,” Swifties are eating while Soulja Boy's somewhere trying to sell us crank dat NFTs.Then we hit the halftime show drama. Everyone thought Taylor was locked for the Super Bowl. She teased it, the NFL hinted at it, and we all gaslit ourselves into believing she was confirmed. Turns out, it's Bad Bunny. And I'm here for it. The boomers are going to lose their minds when they realize the biggest artist in the world only sings in Spanish. This is the Super Bowl, not a Lynyrd Skynyrd reunion. Sit down, dad.After that, I took aim at Tai Lopez. Remember the guy in his garage with the Lamborghini and the books? Yeah, he's being dragged by the SEC for running a $112 million Ponzi scheme. Turns out “Here in my garage” was code for “Here in my court hearing.” If you invested in RadioShack crypto, that's on you, babes.We also talked about my son's new obsession with AI-generated YouTube slop. He's six years old, and instead of watching Paw Patrol, he's glued to a video about a capybara setting off a fire alarm and then saving the company. Parents, stop gatekeeping iPads. Give your kids the tech. They're already building Google Doc chatrooms in school. You can't fight it.Then we checked in on Lil Wayne, who may or may not be releasing another rock album if this unreleased track is any indication. Spoiler: it's bad. Maybe it's time Weezy hangs up the guitar. Or maybe Los from 280 Plus can convince me otherwise.And finally, the cherry on top: I got the best YouTube comment of the year. Shout out to Joshua Bradshaw for telling me to nap in traffic. Your hate fuels this machine, my friend.This episode is stacked with Swifties, Soulja Boy, scammers, Super Bowl conspiracies, Bad Bunny truth bombs, AI capybaras, and Lil Wayne midlife crises. You already know what to do. Hit like, hit subscribe, leave a comment, then go get your kid an iPad before they fall behind on learning what sigma means.

They sold unsecured notes that promised returns of up to 25% a year, and ownership shares that offered monthly payouts as high as 2%, according to the complaint.| - To pay interest, dividends and maturing note payments, Mehr and Lopez resorted to using a combination of loans from outside lenders, merchant cash advances, money raised from new and existing investors,

Dave discusses the recent SEC allegations against Tai Lopez, who is accused of running a Ponzi scheme through his acquisition of legacy retail brands. He dives into the details of the accusations, the flaws in Lopez's business model, and comparisons to other entrepreneurs like Alex Hormozi. What happens to Tai Lopez now?

LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ What if 90% of entrepreneurs are doomed to fail in 2025... but you could beat the odds? In this explosive episode of Dropping Bombs, I sit down with Ryan Pineda—ex–pro baseball player turned real estate mogul, investor, and digital disruptor—who went from broke rookie to building multiple 7- and 8-figure companies before age 35.   Ryan doesn't sugarcoat it: talent won't save you, hustle alone won't scale you, and why most people stay broke. From flipping hundreds of homes and launching a 200-agent brokerage to building Wealthy Investor and his newest play, Mastermind 19, Ryan's blueprint is simple—stack recurring income, leverage brand, and make your money work harder than you do. He even drops bombs on why YouTube golf may mint more millionaires than the PGA Tour—and how faith, free will, and discipline are the ultimate edge in business and life. Ryan also drops truth bombs on Tai Lopez's alleged Ponzi scheme involving bankrupt businesses—discussing investor risks, accountability, and why due diligence is key in a rigged economy.   This isn't motivation—it's a wake-up call. If you're tired of watching others win while you grind in circles, Ryan's story proves you don't need a league, a lottery ticket, or luck. You need the right playbook—and the balls to run it.

Why I Own 5 Homes But Never Travel (Multi-Home Living Strategy Explained) Most wealthy people get lifestyle design completely wrong. They think more travel = better life.

Norwegian filmmaker Audun Amundsen, director of Click the Link Below, which premiered at Doc Edge in Auckland, follows online gurus like Akbar Sheikh and Tai Lopez to show how engagement algorithms reward extremes and blur value with hype. Audun traces an unlikely path from renewable energy engineer and backpacker to documentarian, surviving a stroke at 23 before returning to Indonesia that resulted in his previous documentary Newtopia, a 15-year chronicle of a community's shift from barter to money, with a focus on human nature over gloss. He also cites his earlier feature Help! I've Gone Viral, plus inspirations like Juan Carlos Rulfo's In the Pit and Tarantino's Pulp Fiction. Audun champions smart self-distribution, keeping VOD rights and building film funnels, and urges filmmakers to research financial backers, lead with value, and market your film as thoughtfully as you shoot.What Movies Are You Watching?Introducing the Past Present Feature Film Festival, a new showcase celebrating cinematic storytelling across time.

"If you could watch one video and finally understand all of life… this is it. I break down money, love, happiness, and why we’re all anxious in the modern world. This is my attempt at the unified theory of human existence."What if you could understand all of life in one framework? In this video, Tai Lopez dives deep into what he calls the Grand Theory of Everything—the tension between three forces that shape human existence: Your ego (the self at the center of your experience) Your tribal instincts (family, survival, and primal drives) The global society (laws, morals, and systems much larger than the tribe) Tai explains how this clash between the “small world” and the “big world” explains modern struggles like anxiety, relationships, money, morality, and even politics. From ancient tribes to the industrial revolution to today’s hyper-connected cities, he reveals how our DNA still pulls us toward tribal living—even while society pushes us into global conformity. Learn why so many people feel confused, anxious, and unfulfilled in modern life, and how to manipulate your environment to regain balance, happiness, and success.

In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I sit down with Tai Lopez… Someone I've watched, learned from, and admired from a marketing and sales perspective for years. We go deep into the mechanics of success, from how to model winning frameworks, to why curiosity is the overlooked engine behind big breakthroughs. We talk about what it really takes to scale businesses fast, how Tai thinks about brand arbitrage, and why speed of execution matters more than having the perfect plan. Tai also opens up about the environments that shaped him early on and how that affects the way he operates today. This is one of those episodes that hits on mindset, strategy, and practicality all at once. Key Highlights: Why learning frameworks is more valuable than memorizing tactics Tai's “four levels” of understanding and how to move up the ladder faster How curiosity drives decision-making, speed, and skill acquisition The role of environment and peer influence in long-term success Why imperfect action always beats perfect planning One thing that stuck with me in this conversation is how intentional Tai is about absorbing ideas (books, mentors, observations) and turning them into frameworks he can use. If you're feeling stuck in the mud with overthinking, slow execution, or wondering what separates good entrepreneurs from great ones… this episode lays it all out. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://sellingonline.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://clickfunnels.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Special thanks to our sponsors: NordVPN: EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://nordvpn.com/secrets⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!
