In this episode, Church history and doctrine professor Casey Paul Griffiths discusses his book The Four Loves and the Latter-day Saints: The Nature of Love in All Facets of Our Lives. Drawing on C.S. Lewis's framework and restored gospel teachings, he explains the four forms of love—familial, friendly, romantic, and divine—and why understanding their differences matters for Latter-day Saints. Professor Griffiths highlights the limitations of the English phrase "I love you," noting how it carries multiple meanings that other languages express more precisely. He teaches that distinguishing between these types of love deepens our understanding of ourselves, our relationships, and God. Using scriptural and prophetic insights, he shows how divine love forms the foundation of all human connections. Throughout the episode, Griffiths offers practical ways to apply each form of love, helping listeners strengthen marriages, friendships, families, and their relationship with God. Ultimately, the conversation provides an inspiring look at what it means to love as Christ taught and how a clearer grasp of the "four loves" can elevate every relationship in our lives.

How can joy be more than a just feeling of gladness? When we understand joy more fully through the birth, death, and resurrection of Jesus, we begin to experience resilient joy that can coexist with any feeling.   Taught by Ryan Doucet

In this episode of Dog Works Radio, Robert sits down with longtime friend and client Dr. Lisa DeVore, calling in from South Korea, to talk about her new book Paw Prints on Leadership: What My Service Dog Bailey Taught Me About Leadership. Lisa shares how Bailey, a once-stray dog who became her trained psychiatric service dog, helped her navigate life, work, military contracting, and the stress of living abroad. Together, Robert and Lisa revisit Bailey's early days in training, the challenges of public access, how a dog can change someone's presence and confidence, and how those lessons mapped directly onto her doctoral work in strategic leadership. They talk about approachability, responsibility, accountability, empowerment, adaptability, and what it means to lead and follow at the right moments. Lisa also walks through the long process of writing her book through her DSL program and why she finished it the morning after Bailey passed away. There's also a giveaway: the first five listeners who identify the food Bailey steals in the story will win a copy of the book sent directly from Amazon. 00:00 Intro 03:00 The origins of Bailey 07:40 Beginning the doctoral journey 11:20 Turning grief into a project 14:00 What Bailey taught about leadership 18:45 Duo extraordinaire 21:10 Responsibility and accountability 24:00 Empowerment and trust 26:30 Flight toward presence 29:45 Rapid-fire questions 32:40 How to find Lisa's book 33:15 Giveaway details

As we close out the year, it's so tempting to skip straight to the goals, the vision boards, and the shiny new planner… but if we don't pause to reflect, we often repeat the same patterns. In this short episode, I'm kicking off a 3-part end-of-year series to help you reflect, reset, and step into 2026 with clarity and intention. We'll take a "look back" with curiosity (not judgment) and walk through powerful reflection prompts like: what went well, what surprised you, what challenged you, what you learned about yourself, what you want to let go of, and what you want to carry forward. Because reflection isn't "woo woo" — it's leadership. It helps you lead grounded instead of reactive, build confidence from real evidence, and strengthen connection by reconnecting with yourself first. Enjoy!

Expositional style teaching on the book of Romans CH 1:28-32 that will begin by first finishing our expounding on verse 28 from our most recent teaching. Afterwards, we are going to begin doing a pointed look at this list of 21 sinful acts that are captured within our text, with the hope that we can have a better understanding regarding how these acts look, when a mindset becomes full of sinfulness absent the knowledge of God, as well as what we can learn from this as believers in order to enhance our walk with the Lord. Taught by Assistant Pastor Mac at Calvary Kaneohe Hawaii.

Expositional style teaching on the book of Romans CH 1:29-32 that will continue expounding on this list of 21 vices captured here in the word of God in order to witness the true depth of this level of depravity for non-believers, while at the same time reviewing how we as believers can still fall victim to these vices on a lesser scale, that still have damning consequences as well as how we should be walking in the righteousness of Christ based on the word of God, opposed to minds that are filled with sin. Taught by Assistant Pastor Mac at Calvary Kaneohe Hawaii.

Looking backwards to go forwards: what rowing taught me about big tech and what big tech taught me about rowing with Matt Brittin. Timestamps 01:00 From schoolboy to the Olympics - from a family of ball sport heros. Matt was inspired by Martin Cross to row to a high level - he was his school teacher. Later he was President of his university club where he led the introduction of professional coaching. 04:00 Rowing teaches skills Matt was running Google in Africa, Middle East and Europe for the past 10 years - he tells a lot of anecdotes about rowing. Steve Gunn (a harsh coach) taught how to take responsibility for what you are doing. Are you a piece of sh*t on the end of the oar? When the mindset is right but the self-appraisal was not. The things Matt learned at rowing were the human things - more useful than Business School, Consultancies and University. I wouldn't be where I am in the business world without the rowing lessons. 08:30 Act like an owner The unique side of rowing is that when I'm seat racing, I'm against you. When we are in the crew, I'm with you. Act like an owner at Google - take responsibility for what you're doing and win as a team. We collaborate hard - and sometimes a collaborative competitiveness gives a better outcome. 11:00 High Pressure Situations The start line of a Henley Royal Regatta final is where Matt felt the most intense pressure. Take confidence from the feeling of nerves and the adrenaline surge - this is a sign you are ready for a big performance. Get the attention off yourself - focus on the process is helpful. Know there is someone there who wants you to succeed. 14:45 Henley Royal Regatta Progress Matt is a Henley steward - he marks the progress over recent years. Sir Steve Redgrave asked Matt to help the committee to plan a 10 year strategy. It looks unchanging yet it's always evolving. Three new womens quad scull events were announced - near parity in Open events and Womens events. Since 2015 every race has been on YouTube live and on demand. You Win or You Learn. 20:00 Returning to Rowing It has been a joy and a recalibration too. The gains as you come back are lovely - rediscovering the joy. A lot is about remembering the feelings. How to balance training and travelling for work. How you manage your time at work is important. Matt blocks his diary to take kids to school twice a week - the most important time of the week. He does the same for rowing training. The discipline when traveling of visiting the hotel gym. The more senior you get the more important it is to show up refreshed and feeling great - in good shape. Leaders need to be in the moment and to have time for staff. Matt is planning to mentor people in business, improve his sculling, rowing strength training this year. Masters rowing is "running up the down escalator". It doesn't have to be the same each year - unlike younger rowing years. Choose something fun to plan for your future rowing.

I don't talk about this much, but my grandpa was a severe alcoholic. And I mean severe. He would disappear for days on benders. As a kid, I never saw it directly, but I lived with the fallout. It shaped my family in ways that are still raw decades later.He was also a World War II veteran. He saw heavy fighting. He came home injured. And he came home to a world that told him to man up and never talk about it. Drinking became his way of surviving what he couldn't process.Here's the thing I've learned with time. I would not be who I am without that experience. Not because it was good, but because I was lucky enough to have parents who were steady, square, and deeply values-driven. They didn't hide what was happening. They talked about it. They taught me that someone else's failure is not your fault.That's why I study learning from failure. That's why I believe people can change. And that's why I believe small steps matter. If you're struggling, one less drink. One honest conversation. One boundary. One tiny step sustained over time.You are not broken. You are not evil. You are responding to pain the best way you know how. And you can choose a different path, one small step at a time.

In the final episode of From the Honeycomb for 2025, Katerina and her husband Jesse reflect on a year that brought both unexpected challenges and meaningful wins. In this honest conversation, they share what it looked like to run their businesses through shifting economic conditions, client and consultant dynamics, and increasing responsibilities—while staying grounded in purpose and discipline. They pull back the curtain on the less-visible parts of entrepreneurship: raising fees, expanding and trusting a team, managing uncertain timelines, and navigating external pressures that impact daily decision-making. Along the way, they make space for gratitude, acknowledging the simple joys that helped anchor them through it all. This episode is a thoughtful close to the year—rooted in reflection, resilience, and the lessons learned from uncertainty. It honors the progress made, the challenges faced head-on, and the steady commitment required to keep moving forward.

After 100 episodes of diving into the messy, hilarious, emotional and utterly human world of retirement, I return with the rawest and most powerful episode yet. This milestone isn't a celebration; it's a challenge. A wake-up call. A bold invitation to stop drifting, stop delaying, stop hiding behind old identities… and finally step into the second half of life with honesty, courage, and intention. This episode strips retirement down to what it really is: not money, not timing, not spreadsheets, but the ongoing evolution of you. Who you are when the job title disappears. Who do you dare to become next? And what you're no longer willing to tolerate in the life you have left. What You'll Learn The biggest insight 100 episodes have revealed about human beings and retirement Why retirement isn't actually about retirement, it's about identity The hidden question sitting under nearly every conversation I have ever had Why most people drift through the second half of life instead of designing it How self-honesty becomes the true starting line of retirement Why courage, not money, is the single biggest predictor of a fulfilling future What it really means to write the next chapter of your life on purpose Challenge of the Week

If you want to understand the future of learning and equip yourself with the best possible tools for operating at the top of your game, I believe becoming polymathic is your best bet. And to succeed in mastering multiple skills and tying together multiple domains of knowledge, it’s helpful to have contemporary examples. Especially from people operating way out on the margins of the possible. That’s why today we’re looking at what happens when a poet decides to stop writing on easily destroyed paper. Ebooks and the computers that store information have a shelf life too. No, we’re talking about what happens when a poet starts “writing” into the potentially infinite cellular matter of a seemingly unkillable bacterium. This is the story of The Xenotext. How it came to be, how it relates to memory and the lessons you can learn from the years Christian Bök spent teaching himself the skills needed to potentially save humanity's most important art from the death of our sun. Poetry. But more importantly, this post is a blueprint for you. The story of The Xenotext is a masterclass in why the era of the specialist is over, and why the future belongs to the polymaths who dare to learn the “impossible” by bringing together multiple fields. What on earth could be impossible, you ask? And what does any of this have to do with memory? Simple: Writing in a way that is highly likely to survive the death of the sun changes the definition of what memory is right now. And it should change what we predict memory will be like in both the near and distant future. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwQiW1XDAvI Encoding Literature Into Life: The Xenotext Christian Bök, often described as a conceptual poet, has run experiments with words for decades. For example, Eunoia is a univocal lipogram. That means, in each chapter, Bök used only words containing one of the vowels. This is a constraint, and it leads to lines like, “Awkward grammar appals a craftsman.” And “Writing is inhibiting.” There are other “programs” or constraints Bök used to construct the poem. As a result, you hear and feel the textures of your own mother tongue in a completely new way as you read the poem. But for The Xenotext project, Bök wondered if it would be possible to discover the rules and constraints that would enable himself, and conceivably other poets and writers, to encode poetry into a living organism. That leads to a fascinating question about memory that many mnemonists have tackled, even if they’re not fully aware of it. Can a poem outlive the civilization that produced it? If so, and humans are no longer around, how would that work? The Science of How Biology Becomes Poetry As far as I can understand, one of the first steps involved imagining the project itself, followed by learning how it could be possible for a poem to live inside of a cell. And which kind of cell would do the job of protecting the poetry? It turns out that there’s an “extremophile” called Deinococcus radiodurans. It was listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the most radiation resistant bacterium on planet Earth. As a life form, its DNA was sequenced and published in 1999. According to the Wikipedia page on The Xenotext, Bök started conceiving of encoding poetry into DNA and then inserting it into the bacterium circa 2002. But the project is about more than having poetry persist within a cell so it can transmit the work without errors later. It’s a kind of combinatory puzzle in which the bacterium acts as a kind of co-author. In order to pull this project off, Bök needed to enlist the help of scientists while mastering multiple skills many people would not normally consider “writing.” But as we head into the future, we definitely should. Radical Autodidacticism: Reaching New Heights Through Deep Discipline To this day, many educators talk about the importance of being a specialist. But The Xenotext project and the work Bök put into it forces us to redefine what it means to be a self-directed learner in the 21st century. When Bök decided to encode a poem into the DNA of an extremophile bacterium, he didn’t just “dabble” in science or explore various interests as a multipotentialite. Nor did he read a few pop-sci books and expect an organism to write a poem in return. No, he spent many years studying genomic and proteomic engineering. He coded his own computer program to help him “unearth” the poetry, all while writing grants and collaborating with multiple experts. The Skill Stack If you’re a lifelong learner with big dreams, it’s useful to examine how people with autodidactic and polymathic personality traits operate. One of the first skills is to allow yourself to dream big. Giving oneself permission like this might not seem like a skill. But since we can model any polymath or other person who inspires us, you probably won’t be surprised that many of the most inspiring polymaths regularly daydream. Picking a dream and pursuing it despite any obstacles is also a skill. And once you’ve got a project, the next step is to take a cue from a polymath like Elon Musk and break your goal down into the most basic principles. No matter how unusual or unlikely your dream, it’s a useful exercise. When it comes to analytical thinking and breaking a goal down so you can start pursuing it, it’s often useful to look at your existing competence. In Bök’s case, I believe he wrote Eunoia by culling words manually from dictionaries over many years. But he couldn’t brute force The Xenotext in that way due to all the biological chemistry involved, so he had to become what you might think of as a computational linguist. My point is not to diminish the originality of this project in any way. But I think it’s helpful to recognize that The Xenotext is not wildly divorced from the skills Bök already had. It’s an evolution that draws from them. There’s also the skill of what Waqas Ahmed calls synesthetic thinking in his book, The Polymath. Not to be mistaken with synesthesia, synesthetic thinking involves imagining an outcome through at least one other sense. In Bök’s case, The Xenotext involves imagining the use of living beings other than human as being part of art. And he has described the possibility that his work could reach “a sufficiently intelligent civilization that has fast computers and smart cryptographers.” This is the skill of sensing beyond our own species and taking the risk of trying to reach them. Even if we’re long gone. We Need Deathless Memory Now, I have a confession to make. One of the many reasons I’m so fascinated by The Xenotext is that my memory is incredibly weak. That’s why I use mnemonics with such passion, including for memorizing poetry. Recently, I had the chance to interview Christian Bök, who you can probably tell by now, I consider to be one of the most rigorous intellects alive. And right in the middle of the interview, I started reciting one of his books from Book I of The Xenotext. For all the mnemonics in the world, I choked. Now, sometimes, this happens just because I have mouth problems and things get a bit sticky. Other times, it’s exhaustion and yet other times, I manage to recite poems with no problem at all. I’m mentioning this human moment in my career as a mnemonist not because I have a deep need to confess. No, this fragile, ephemeral human moment while talking about encoding and retrieving information perfectly from its placement within a living cell suggests the possibility that life really can be the most durable storage device in the universe. And to see this project come to fruition after all the years Bök pushed through multiple struggles inspires me in countless ways. For one thing, Bök’s project strikes me as the ultimate memory strategy. Was Poetry the Original Hard Drive? As Bök reminded me during our discussion, poetry was a memory technology long before writing existed. Rhythm, rhyme, and meter were engineering tools used to ensure information survived the “game of telephone” across generations. In Bök’s words: “We certainly owe every great epic story of the sort like the Epic of Gilgamesh or the Iliad… stories that were intended, of course, to transmit important cultural information over long periods of time. We need poets to be able to create that work and make it memorable enough… to persist over time.” And it is in this context that Christian Bök realized something terrifying: “There’s nothing that we’ve built so far on the planet Earth that would probably last more than a few tens of billions of years at most.” Until his work on The Xenotext succeeded, we have had nothing to rely on apart from our brains assisted by techniques like the Memory Palace, or silicon prostheses. But the computers and servers we now use to store our collective memory are just as subject to rot as paper. Even our homes would be ground into “an almost undetectable layer of geological dust” in just a few million years. So Bök’s selection of a deathless bacterium isn’t just a petri dish stunt. By choosing a specific bacterium that is “widely regarded as one of the most unkillable things ever to have evolved on the planet Earth,” Bök has created a memory inside a “message in a bottle thrown into an enormous ocean” that might actually survive the death of our sun. How to Develop Your Own Polymathic Persistence  Reading this, you might be thinking, “I’m just a student,” or “I’m just a writer.” Bök could have thought that too. As he told me: “My assumption was that I’ve got training in English literature… Obviously, in order to embark upon such a project, I had to acquire a whole set of new skills, familiarize myself with a lot of very difficult discourses.” And so he made the decision to step outside of his lane, joining other innovators who have done the same. But how do you engage in a project that takes decades without burning out? Bök gave me three specific clues you can apply to your own learning journey. One: Embrace the Unknown Bök told me that if he had known how hard the project would be, he might not have started. He called this his “saving grace,” yet how many times do we turn away from our dreams because we don’t know the size of the mountain. Nelson Dellis told me something similar once about memory training. He’s a memory champion, but also a climber who has summited Everest. He said you don’t have to worry about whether the top of the mountain is there or not. Just focus on where you’re going to place your hands next. Two: Focus on Incremental Achievement Even as Bök’s project threw new obstacles at him, he told me: “I gave myself accomplishments or achievements that were incremental, that I knew I could probably fulfill, and would embark upon those doable tasks in an effort to acquire the required skill set in order to accomplish the remainder of these tasks.” In other words, he stacked small, doable wins on top of each other. And kept stacking until he had built a ladder to the impossible. Three: Tunnel Through the Noise Bök was candid about some of the loneliness on the path of the polymath. Sadly, he noted: This project, especially, has been beleaguered with all kinds of obstruction and difficulty that were added to the already difficult task at hand and the improbable kinds of risks that I had to adopt in order to be able to accomplish it. His advice having pushed through and made it to the other side? “If you’re going through hell, keep going. Don’t stop, because otherwise, you’re in hell… Just keep going, try to tunnel through.” Bök's work definitely makes a big statement when it comes to 21st century poetry. But for me, it's also a statement about memory and human potential. The Xenotext challenges us to stop thinking of computers as something that has eclipsed the human brain as the ultimate storage and retrieval device. It places our attention squarely back on the relationship between poetry and life, and the aspects of language that were in so many ways already a technology “infecting” our cells. If you want to become a polymath and enjoy a legacy that lasts, you must be willing to endure what Bök described as “36 different side quests” of complex projects, you must be willing to look at subjects and skills that seem “impossible” and learn them anyway. Ready to start your own “impossible” learning project? I have a guide that will help you develop your own curriculum: This Self-Education Blueprint will help you transform scattered curiosity into tightly interwoven levels of expertise. That way, the knowledge you accumulate gets put to use, and above all, helps others too.

Clarity doesn't come from cramming more into your calendar; it comes from reflection, structure, and the courage to trust your leadership intuition. We open up about three lessons that reshaped how we coach, lead, and build: embracing a blended coaching-consulting style, designing structure that expands capacity, and elevating intellectual property into true authority assets. These shifts turned an overloaded schedule into a focused operating system and reframed “scale at all costs” into “build with intention.”First, we dig into leadership identity and how it evolves when you move from formal titles to influence, impact, and results. You'll hear how reading the moment—offering space and questions when needed, or providing frameworks and direction when it matters—creates better outcomes for high performers. This is the practical art of discernment: serving clients and teams with the right approach at the right time, and trusting your intuition to guide the switch.Next, we tackle a common myth: time isn't the problem, structure is. We walk through specific practices that reduce overwhelm, from externalizing tasks and estimating realistically to protecting deep-work blocks and asking for real timelines before committing. You'll learn how structure supports energy, sharpens decisions, and prevents reactive mode, even during demanding weeks. The result is capacity you can feel and results you can measure.Finally, we reframe assets like courses, frameworks, and templates as strategic tools that strengthen authority and client experience. Instead of chasing scale for every asset, we show how codifying what already works accelerates onboarding, reinforces workshops, and creates consistency across engagements. You'll leave with prompts to identify your own underused IP and a path to leverage it with confidence.If this conversation sparks momentum, subscribe, share with a peer who leads, and leave a quick review so more high performers can find the show.

As a coach to independent financial advisors, I see a lot of advisors struggling with the same issue—they blend in with the advisor down the street. And when prospects can't see what makes you unique, it becomes a lot harder for them to understand why they should choose you over anyone else.That's why I loved today's conversation with Glenn Street. Glenn built one of the most differentiated businesses I've ever seen—Street Characters, the company behind many of the most iconic mascots in the NFL, NHL, MLB, and major college sports. But the real lesson from this episode isn't about mascots. It's about how he picked a niche, went deep, and created a level of expertise and service that big competitors couldn't match.Glenn didn't try to be everything to everyone. He focused on a narrow lane, understood his customers better than anyone else, and delivered a product and experience no one else in his space could touch. Advisors can do the exact same thing—especially in a market where most firms look and sound identical. When you specialize with intention, understand your audience on a deeper level, and build a brand that feels unmistakably yours, you become the advisor people talk about, remember, and seek out.3 of the biggest insights from Glenn Street…#1.) Niching Down in a Commoditized IndustryOne of the things I loved about Glenn's story is how he didn't try to compete with the Disneys of the world. He found a narrow lane—sports mascots—and went deeper than anyone else. That's exactly what most advisors need today. When you pick a niche and truly understand the people you serve, you stop blending in and start becoming the advisor everyone talks about.#2.) Core Values Don't Matter Unless You Actually Live ThemA lot of firms have core values, but very few bring them to life the way Glenn does. His team starts and ends their day with them. They use them to make decisions, solve problems, and hold each other accountable. It's a simple reminder that culture isn't something you write, it's something you practice.#3.) The Right Incentives Turn Good Teams Into Great OnesGlenn has built a culture where A-player behavior is recognized and rewarded—whether that's through peer shoutouts, clear performance targets, or a team trip to Mexico when they hit their goals. These aren't random perks; they're intentional systems that reinforce what “great” looks like.

How do we live with God's peace through the chaos of life?     Taught by Margaret Rhoads and Jose Zayas  

What happens when your dream business nearly destroys you, and then teaches you everything you needed to know about money?   We don't usually talk about this. The early days. The subway rides hauling coffee beans across Chicago. The polar vortex brought us to the edge of bankruptcy. The moment we realized we'd been doing money completely wrong.   But Perry asked us to get real. So we did.   In Part 1 of this two-part conversation, we're pulling back the curtain on our entrepreneurial journey, from bootstrapping a coffee shop with zero financial backing to discovering the principles that would eventually reshape how we help business owners build wealth.   You'll hear: Why we delivered coffee beans on the subway before our shop even opened (and what that taught us about building a business with no money) The brutal wake-up call that came during a Chicago polar vortex—and the single lesson that saved everything What our financial planner told us contradicted everything we thought we knew about "saving for retirement." The three things every entrepreneur needs to survive (hint: passion isn't enough) Why we were told we were "too entrepreneurial" to get hired and how that rejection became our biggest opportunity   Key Quote: "We were naive about how hard it would be. But that naivety is also what kept us going when smarter people would have quit."   This isn't a polished success story. It's the real version—the good, the bad, and the ramen. If you've ever wondered whether you're cut out for this entrepreneur thing, or if you're doing money all wrong, this one's for you.   Coming next week: Part 2 dives into what's broken in the financial planning world and how we're using Profit First, Infinite Banking, and AI to help business owners build wealth differently.   Resources mentioned: Find Your Flow Quiz — 10 questions to discover your financial personality Financial Nervous System Diagnostic — A deeper 54-question assessment Get more info about Perry Marshall's Roundtable here.

In preparing to close the chapter on another year, I find myself reflecting on the innumerable ups and downs of 2025. If your year looked anything like mine, it held moments of soaring joy but also heartbreaking loss. Let me explain.

Today one of the most vulnerable, challenging, and meaningful videos I've ever made... A deep dive into how you can experience breakthroughs in your running and life.   This episode is different than usual. It's a presentation I recorded while trying to run a Sub 3 hour marathon and let's just say, not everything always goes exactly according to plan. It's how we respond to these situations that matters most.   This episode has many visual examples that are better experienced while watching the video, vs listening to it. It could probabably still work as a podcast too.   After about 27 minutes something unexpected happens on this run.

On this week's episode, the Coven is clocked in. Bunnie XO and the girls are back in full group-chat mode, diving headfirst into everything from health and hygiene to the unhinged conspiracy theories the internet cannot let go of. They kick things off complaining about the freezing studio, then spiral into laughter over body hair confessions, beauty routines, and the products they swear by — or absolutely refuse to use.Bunnie breaks down her husband's dramatic weight-loss journey and the wild rumors that followed, including theories that he's been replaced by a clone. From there, the convo shifts from funny to genuinely helpful as the Coven shares real-world self-care advice: shaving hacks, clean makeup tools, hair and hygiene routines, and why baby oil might be an underrated beauty secret.They also get unfiltered about women's health, covering UTIs, BV, period products, and why teaching kids proper self-care early actually matters. Plus, the girls unpack skincare myths, skin cancer awareness, collagen, and why doing too much to your face might be aging you faster.It's chaotic, honest, unexpectedly informative, and very Coven-coded — the kind of episode that feels like a late-night group chat with your smartest, funniest friends.Watch Full Episodes & More:YouTubeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
