“We're all salespeople at the end of the day.”Whether you're pitching a movie, an idea, or yourself, persuasion is about more than the story you're telling—it's also about the story your audience sees for themselves. For Deadpool and Zombieland screenwriter Rhett Reese, that means keeping communication concise, compelling, and centered on what your audience needs. In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Reese joins Matt Abrahams to share lessons from screenwriting that apply far beyond Hollywood. From cutting unnecessary words to crafting pitches that make your audience the protagonist, he explores how storytelling, collaboration, and clarity can make any message more persuasive.Takeaways:Every pitch tells two stories. You're selling the idea itself, but you're also showing your audience how saying yes can solve their problem, reduce their risk, and lead to their success.Brevity makes your message stronger. Cutting unnecessary words and choosing them carefully helps your ideas land with greater clarity, impact, and memorability.Activity:Tell the second story. Take a pitch you're currently working on and write one sentence describing the idea you're selling. Then write a second sentence from your audience's perspective: “If I say yes, what becomes possible for me?” Use that second story to reshape your pitch around their success, not just your idea.Printable Expanded Takeaways & ActivitiesEpisode Reference Links:Rhett ReeseEp.167 Hollywood Lessons For Successful Communication Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedIn Chapters:(00:00) - Introduction (01:18) - Make Every Word Count (03:09) - How to Pitch an Idea (07:38) - Creatively Collaborating (10:35) - Creating Space for Feedback (12:49) - AI & the Future of Hollywood (16:44) - The Final Three Questions (23:15) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.Strawberry.me.

Thi Nguyen, philosopherDrew and Alex have been talking about Goodhart's Law, McNamara's Fallacy, and the tyranny of metrics for a while now. This week they bring in a philosopher who gave them the language to finally explain why — C. Thi Nguyen from the University of Utah, whose work on games and gamification is the missing piece of that conversation.What we get into:Value capture in military human performance — when a unit starts chasing PT scores instead of physical readiness, when a strength coach starts optimizing athlete data instead of athlete outcomes, when a commander starts managing the metric instead of the mission. Value capture is the mechanism behind all of it. It's what happens when a simplified number colonizes your decision-making and you slowly forget what you were actually trying to accomplish.The quantified self problem — HRV, sleep scores, readiness metrics, wearables. All genuinely useful. All capable of becoming the thing you optimize instead of the thing they were supposed to measure. The difference between a tool that informs your judgment and a tool that replaces it is one of the most important distinctions in human performance right now.Why gamification is different from games — games are voluntary, finite, and you walk away from them. Gamification takes the reward loop of a game and attaches it to things that used to have richer value. The PT test was never supposed to be the game. It was supposed to tell you something about readiness. The moment it became a scoreboard, it stopped doing that.The promotion system as a game — what happens to an organization when the people who are best at optimizing the visible metrics rise to the top, and whether military culture has the tools to value what the metrics miss.Echo chambers and epistemic cowardice — why Nguyen's work applies directly to military organizations where rank creates enormous pressure to smooth out disagreement, and what that does to the quality of decision-making over time.Mentioned in this episode:Games: Agency as Art — C.

In this episode of Thoughts From the Chair, Chris dives into a difficult question about modern relationships, friendships, and loyalty: Have we started treating people like they're disposable? We live in a culture obsessed with upgrading, replacing, and moving on to the next best thing, and that mentality has found its way into our marriages, friendships, dating lives, and communities. This conversation explores why relationships fall apart, how unspoken expectations and resentment destroy connection, why uncomfortable conversations matter, and the difference between genuinely loving someone and simply loving what they provide for you. Real relationships require honesty, accountability, forgiveness, boundaries, communication, sacrifice, and the willingness to repair what's been damaged instead of immediately looking for a replacement.The conversation gets even deeper when a community member asks what happens when you're always the giver surrounded by takers. Chris breaks down people pleasing, one sided friendships, toxic relationship dynamics, boundaries, self abandonment, loyalty, sacrifice, dating, marriage, and knowing when helping someone has crossed the line into enabling them. You'll hear why takers often see boundaries as betrayal, why being needed isn't the same as being loved, how poor communication creates resentment, and why healthy relationships require reciprocity instead of one person constantly carrying the weight. If you've ever wondered whether someone actually loves you or simply loves what you do for them, whether you should keep fighting for a relationship, or how to set boundaries without becoming cold and disconnected, this conversation is for youDisclaimer: We are not professionals.

Great teams are not built by talent alone. They are built by people who are committed to each other, committed to the mission, and willing to bring the right attitude every day. Pastor Q shares four traits every great team player needs: give your best, stay positive through challenges, keep getting better, and stay connected. The goal is not perfection. It is commitment—giving 100% of what you have, choosing your mindset, learning from every experience, and building strong relationships with the people around you. Great teams do not happen by accident. They are built through small, consistent choices made over time. The four questions Pastor Q's team uses to get better: What went well? What could have been better? What did we learn? What are we going to do differently next time?

This week on Catalyst, Tammy is joined by Adam Zaouague, Automation & Data Specialist at Reata Engineering & Machine Works and a finalist for the Next Generation Leadership Award at the Manufacturing Leadership Council Awards Gala. Adam traces his path from a high school CNC machining program to being recruited by Reata's owner (at the age of 17!) and eventually leading the company's engineering department. He reflects on why trust and emotional intelligence matter as much as technical skill when leading others, then turns to AI, arguing that as machines take on more of the workload, intention and focus become the real differentiators. He shares Reata's philosophy of slowing down to speed up, the internal AI tool the company is building to let subject matter experts create their own solutions, and how integrity and teamwork remain the values that hold it all together.

This episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast tackles one of the hardest questions anyone can face, how do you keep moving forward when life won't stop hitting you? Chris and Peaches discuss the difference between trauma and hardship, surviving season after season of crisis, supporting a partner through serious illness, maintaining emotional connection when your own needs aren't being met, and why your mindset determines whether life's challenges become your identity or your catalyst for growth. They also share practical advice on communication, emotional resilience, love languages during illness, and how to avoid falling into a victim mindset while still honoring genuine pain. The conversation also goes behind the scenes of their growing business, homeschooling plans, building a botanical extraction laboratory, reducing technology and news consumption, preparing for the future, and why they are shifting the direction of their content toward meaningful personal growth instead of relationship drama. If you're interested in relationships, mental health, resilience, emotional maturity, self improvement, accountability, communication, trauma recovery, or creating a more intentional life, this episode offers honest conversations and practical perspectives you can apply immediately.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

The internet lost its mind. So Drew and Alex went and got one of the most knowledgeable people in the field — Dr. Jordan Feigenbaum of Barbell Medicine — to actually explain what's going on.What we get into:Are testosterone levels really dropping? The short answer is probably not in the way the internet says. The long answer involves a testing methodology problem — older immunoassay tests read artificially high compared to the more accurate mass spectrometry tests that replaced them around 2000. When you only use mass spec data across 100,000 people and 30 years, there's no decline. The real culprit, to the extent there is one, is obesity — specifically visceral adipose tissue, which BMI is terrible at detecting.The DOD testosterone testing mandate — what it actually says, what it doesn't say, and why the Army endocrinology community is about to have a very bad time. Jordan breaks down the difference between having a low lab number and actually having testosterone deficiency, why both criteria have to be met before treatment makes sense, and why testing people without symptoms is going to generate a flood of unnecessary clinical encounters.TRT — who actually benefits, what the evidence says, and what it doesn't. The difference between restoring someone who is genuinely deficient to a normal level versus using it as a performance enhancing drug. What happens to your natural production when you go on exogenous testosterone.

In this episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast, Chris answers real relationship questions submitted by listeners and tackles the conversations most people are afraid to have. From marriage, submission, leadership, boundaries, trust, jealousy, financial struggles, social media addiction, and protecting intimacy, to maintaining connection when work keeps couples apart, these emails expose the everyday problems that can quietly destroy relationships when people refuse to communicate. Chris breaks down the difference between submission and control, requests and demands, insecurity and legitimate boundaries, while challenging both men and women to take accountability for the role they play in their relationships.This isn't traditional relationship advice. These are raw, unfiltered answers about marriage, masculine leadership, feminine submission, communication, personal accountability, dating, trust, intimacy, money, and becoming a better partner. You'll hear why your partner can't read your mind, how unspoken expectations create resentment, why boundaries require communication, how social media can distort your perception of relationships, and why being present with your partner matters more than trying to recover time you've already lost. If you're trying to build a stronger marriage, improve communication, understand relationship dynamics, or stop repeating the same destructive patterns, this episode will give you plenty to think about.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

You'll learn how to separate conflict from abuse, communicate boundaries effectively, recognize when someone is capable of change, and understand the emotional consequences that come with going no contact.

Today let's talk about something I’ve been asked many times over the years. “Why warehousing?” Or “Why transportation?” Or “Why the supply chain?”  After unloading trailers, pulling orders, operating forklifts, supervising teams, managing operations, and on to the executive team, I’ve been asked that question hundreds of times. People usually expect me to answer with one of the obvious reasons. That there’s good money, great benefits, opportunities for overtime, or the Job security and Promotion opportunities, and how the works stable, sometimes even considered essential. And those are all true, and they’re all important. But if I had to narrow everything down to just one reason? Just one thing that makes this industry different than almost every other career?  Well, I'd have to go with how this industry rewards the person you’re willing to become. Not who you are today or where you came from. Not what grades you made or where you went to school or who your parents were. This industry has always rewarded effort. It rewards people that keep showing up and that continue learning. It rewards people that become more valuable every year. And to me anyway, that’s something incredibly special.  When someone asks me what they should do with their career, I often tell them that warehousing isn’t just about moving boxes and transportation isn’t just about trucks and how the supply chain isn’t just about inventory. It’s about solving problems. It’s about making businesses successful and it’s about making sure families receive what they need. Every package is delivered. Every grocery shelf is stocked. Every hospital was supplied. Every manufacturing plant receives their raw materials. Every online order arrives on someone’s porch. All of that happens because thousands of us workers choose to become professionals. One of the things I love about this industry is that there are very few ceilings. As I've said many times, you can literally start today sweeping floors and next year you might be operating equipment. A year later you’re training others and soon you’re a lead. Then a supervisor. Maybe an inventory analyst. Perhaps a dispatcher or transportation coordinator or a safety professional. Even an operations manager, director, or Vice President. I’ve watched people make that journey. I’ve had the pleasure of hiring several of them and the honor of promoting many of them. Not because they had the fanciest résumé. But because they earned the opportunity.  First off, our industry notices consistency. I know I sound like a broken record sometimes. I keep repeating these things because they are that important and just that simple. Showing up everyday matters. Being dependable and taking ownership matters. If your supervisor never has to wonder whether you’ll be at work, if they know you’ll do quality work and they know you’ll help solve problems instead of creating them, you’ve already separated yourself from many others. Consistency becomes your resume.  Then comes learning. Every new skill increases your value. Learn a second department. Learn receiving, Shipping, Inventory Control, Quality Assurance, Cycle counting, Forklift operation, the Reach truck. What else, here's a few of my go too's, the order picker. Yard management. Transportation planning. Warehouse Management Systems. Excel. Everyone should feel comfortable working with Microsoft word and excel. And Leadership. Communication, and of course Safety. Every skill is another tool in your toolbox. And no bad manager or company can take those skills away from you. Even if you change employers, those skills travel with you.  One lesson I’ve learned throughout my own career, and try to share with every new boot I meet, is that companies don’t simply promote experience. They promote confidence and our confidence comes from preparation. I think being prepared comes from learning everything we can. The more you understand the operation, the more valuable you become. Eventually people begin asking for your opinion and that’s when your career really starts to grow.  Another reason I love this industry is because every day is different. No two days are exactly alike. One morning you may have weather delays, all your trucks and loads are running late. On another day we'll have equipment issues. A customer changes an order. A shipment arrives early. A truck breaks down. The inventory doesn’t match. The team is short-handed. Problems appear every single day!  Some people see stress. I've always tried to see opportunities.  Seriously, every problem solved teaches you something. Every challenge develops another leadership skill, and every difficult day prepares you for greater responsibility. Young people often ask me how to become successful, and my answer seems to surprise them. Just Become the person people trust. Trust opens doors. Trust gets assignments and earns promotions. Trust creates opportunities. Trust is built one decision at a time. A decision from us. Being on time. Following through. Owning mistakes. Helping our teammates. Doing the right thing when nobody’s watching. Those habits are noticed.  I also appreciate something else about our profession. You don’t have to wait for someone to allow you to grow. Growth is largely in your control. Read books. Watch training videos, there’s thousands on YouTube. Volunteer for projects. Crosstrain. Ask questions. Observe great leaders. Practice communication. Improve your safety knowledge. Become certified. Nobody can stop you from investing in yourself. The people who grow the fastest are usually the ones who never stop learning.  I’ve met warehouse associates making six figures. transportation professionals earning incredible incomes. Supply chain analysts traveling the country. Operations leaders running million-square-foot distribution centers. Safety professionals influencing thousands of employees. Corporate trainers teaching nationwide. None of them started there. Most started exactly where someone listening today may be standing. The difference wasn’t luck. It was growth.  You know, one of my favorite moments is watching someone realize they have more potential than they ever imagined. Maybe it’s the forklift operator who becomes a trainer. The selector who becomes a supervisor. The receptionist who becomes a recruiter. The dispatcher who becomes a transportation manager. And I could go on and on.  I’ve watched those transformations happen over and over again.  The warehouse is an incredible classroom. It teaches discipline, Communication, Teamwork, Safety, Accountability, Time management, Customer service, Leadership, Conflict resolution, Problem solving. And These aren’t just warehouse skills. They’re life skills. Skills that help in every profession and every stage of life.  People sometimes say they don’t want to work in a warehouse forever. I understand that. But don’t overlook what the warehouse can do for you. It can build confidence. Teach responsibility. Develop leadership. Provide financial stability. Introduce lifelong mentors. Open doors you never knew existed. The warehouse may not be your final destination. But it can absolutely become the foundation of an incredible career.  As I look back over my own career, I don’t remember every shipment. I don’t remember every inventory count. I don’t remember every dock schedule. What I remember are the people. The mentors who challenged me. The associates who inspired me. The supervisors who believed in me. The teams that accomplished incredible things together. That’s another gift this industry gives us. Relationships. And those relationships often last an entire lifetime.  So, if someone asked me today, Marty, what’s the one thing that makes this industry so great? My answer would be simple. Because this industry rewards the person you’re willing to become. It rewards effort. It rewards learning. It rewards reliability. It rewards character. It rewards ownership. It rewards growth. And the beautiful part is, every one of us gets to decide who we’re becoming tomorrow.  Ok, I've got to get back to work myself now. But I wanted to add that if you’re just beginning your career in warehousing, manufacturing, transportation, or supply chain, don’t focus only on the next paycheck. Focus on becoming the person everyone wants on their team. The promotions will come. The opportunities will come. The raises will come. The career will come. It's my opinion or my belief, in this industry, your greatest value isn’t the equipment you operate or the building or department you work in. It’s the person you choose to become.    I'm Marty T Hawkins and I want to thank you for checking in on Warehouse and Operations as a Career today. Until next time, be safe, keep learning, help someone else grow, and never stop investing in yourself.

How should couples split newborn nights? (And does “sharing the nights” actually mean the same thing to both of you?)In this episode, Chelsea walks expecting couples through several ways to divide overnight newborn care, from split-night shifts and alternating wake-ups to feeder/support-partner roles and evening-and-morning coverage.More importantly, this isn't about finding the perfect newborn sleep schedule.It's about making sure both partners understand what they are agreeing to, protecting each person's basic need for rest, and knowing how to adjust when your original plan stops working.Chelsea covers:Different ways couples can split newborn night shiftsWhether both parents need to wake up for every feedingHow breastfeeding changes nighttime responsibilitiesWhat the non-feeding partner can fully ownHow returning to work affects the conversationWhy paid work and postpartum recovery both deserve considerationWarning signs that your current system isn't workingHow to avoid sleep scorekeeping and resentmentQuestions to discuss before your baby arrivesHow to safely say, “I'm not functioning well anymore”Why the ability to revise the plan matters more than creating the perfect planOne important reminder from this episode:Teamwork does not always mean doing the same task at the same moment.The goal is to build a system where one person's sleep, recovery, or needs do not automatically become less important than the other's.Use these questions after listening:What does each of us imagine nighttime care will look like?How much uninterrupted sleep does each of us need to function?How will feeding affect the division of nighttime care?What can the non-feeding partner fully own?How will we handle nights before a workday?How will either of us say, “I am no longer functioning safely”?When will we review and revise our plan?Prep for Us is Chelsea's six-week program for expecting couples who want to prepare for more than birth and baby gear.Together, you'll clarify expectations, understand your stress responses, divide responsibility more intentionally, communicate needs earlier, and create systems that can flex when real life looks different from the plan.Prep for Us: How to Prepare Your Relationship for a Baby | Postpartum TogetherLearn more from Chelsea at Postpartum Together.About Relationship Coaching with Chels + Mike | Postpartum TogetherInstagram: @postpartumtogetherQuestions to discuss with your partnerPrepare for parenthood as a team

more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2026-08-12-22-34-01-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A nyár arany sugarai bearanyozták Aquincum ősi romjait.En: The golden rays of summer illuminated the ancient ruins of Aquincum.Hu: A növényzettel benőtt kövek és omladozó építmények mind arra utaltak, hogy ez a hely egykor egy pezsgő város volt.En: The vegetation-covered stones and crumbling structures all hinted that this place was once a bustling city.Hu: Most azonban csak három lelkes régész járt itt minden nap: Árpád, Katalin és Zoltán.En: Now, however, only three enthusiastic archaeologists visited it every day: Árpád, Katalin, and Zoltán.Hu: Árpád minden reggel izgatottan ébredt.En: Árpád woke up excited every morning.Hu: A történelem szenvedélye hajtotta.En: His passion for history drove him.Hu: Elképzelte, hogy valami különlegeset talál, ami elhozza számára a hőn áhított elismerést.En: He imagined finding something special that would bring him the much-desired recognition.Hu: Árpád sosem állt meg.En: Árpád never stopped.Hu: Fáradhatatlanul kereste a titkot rejtő nyomokat a kavicsok és kövek alatt.En: Tirelessly, he searched for clues hidden beneath the pebbles and stones.Hu: Katalin, a mindig támogató és pragmatikus kollégája, Árpád mellett dolgozott.En: Katalin, his always supportive and pragmatic colleague, worked alongside him.Hu: Ő sosem engedte, hogy a lelkesedés elragadja a valóságtól.En: She never allowed enthusiasm to detach them from reality.Hu: Figyelmesen követte a térképeket, és mindig tudta, hol állnak éppen a kutatás során.En: She carefully followed the maps and always knew their exact location during the research.Hu: Zoltán, a csapat vezetője, a hézagok közti értékeket kereste.En: Zoltán, the team leader, sought value in the gaps.Hu: Az egyensúlynak kellett pontosnak lennie.En: The balance had to be precise.Hu: Óvatos, ám határozott volt.En: He was cautious yet decisive.Hu: Nem engedhette meg, hogy a romok kárt szenvedjenek a túlzott kapkodás miatt.En: He couldn't allow the ruins to suffer damage from excessive haste.Hu: Egy júliusi napon Árpád felfedezett egy rejtett sarkot.En: On a July day, Árpád discovered a hidden corner.Hu: A szíve gyorsan vert, amikor észrevette a lehetőséget.En: His heart raced as he noticed the opportunity.Hu: Úgy érezte, itt rejlik valami jelentőségteljes.En: He felt there was something significant hidden there.Hu: De Zoltán hangja az elméjében csendült: „Lassan, Árpád.En: But Zoltán's voice resonated in his mind: "Slowly, Árpád.Hu: A múltat nem siettethetjük.En: We cannot rush the past."Hu: ”Árpádnak döntenie kellett.En: Árpád had to decide.Hu: Hallgasson Zoltánra, vagy kövesse a szenvedélyét?En: Should he listen to Zoltán or follow his passion?Hu: Egyedül maradt a romok között.En: He was left alone among the ruins.Hu: A csend, csak a madarak és a szellő hangja, körülölelte.En: The silence was only broken by the sound of birds and the breeze surrounding him.Hu: Végül is, nem tudott ellenállni.En: Ultimately, he couldn't resist.Hu: Óvatosan folytatta a feltárást a rejtett sarkon.En: He cautiously continued the excavation in the hidden corner.Hu: Keze remegett az izgalomtól.En: His hands trembled with excitement.Hu: Rögzítette az új kamrát.En: He documented the new chamber.Hu: A szeme könnybe lábadt, amikor észrevett egy fényes tárgyat.En: His eyes filled with tears when he noticed a shiny object.Hu: Egy rég elveszettnek hitt dísztárgy került a napvilágra.En: A decorative object thought to be long lost came to light.Hu: Ám az öröm mellé aggodalom vegyült.En: Yet, alongside the joy, worry emerged.Hu: A kihívások miatt a tárgy részben megsérült.En: Due to the challenges, the object was partially damaged.Hu: Az egész csapat csodálta Árpád munkáját, de a módszer kérdése is felmerült.En: The entire team admired Árpád's work, but the question of method also arose.Hu: Zoltán sietett oda.En: Zoltán quickly approached.Hu: Halkan, de nyomatékosan azt mondta: „Megtanultad a leckét, Árpád.En: Softly but emphatically, he said, "You have learned the lesson, Árpád.Hu: A történelem tisztelete mindennél fontosabb.En: Respect for history is more important than anything."Hu: ”Árpád bólintott.En: Árpád nodded.Hu: Habár az elismerés ígéretes árnyéka ott lebegett, megértette, mit jelent a valódi tisztelet a múlt iránt.En: Although the promising shadow of recognition hovered there, he understood what true respect for the past meant.Hu: A jövőben Zoltán útmutatásait követte, a megőrzés iránti elkötelezettséggel.En: In the future, he followed Zoltán's guidance, with a commitment to preservation.Hu: A nap lassan lenyugodott, a romok pedig aranyszínben pompáztak.En: The sun slowly set, and the ruins glowed in golden hues.Hu: Árpád már nem csak remélt, hanem tudta is, hogy megtalálta a történet valódi értékét: az egyensúlyt megtalálni a szenvedély és a megőrzés között.En: Árpád no longer just hoped, but he knew he had found the true value of the story: finding the balance between passion and preservation.

What happens when the mission changes, but the drive to keep moving forward remains?Combat Vet Vision welcomes Giovanni Perez, a retired U.S. Army combat engineer, wounded veteran, adaptive motorcycle and off-road competitor, and veteran advocate whose post-service journey has taken him from Afghanistan to some of the toughest terrain in off-road racing.Giovanni lost his left arm while serving with the Army in Afghanistan. After returning home, motorcycles became more than recreation. Through adaptation, determination and the veteran community, riding became another place to find challenge, camaraderie and purpose.Giovanni has competed in desert and off-road events including the Baja 500, Baja 1000 and Vegas to Reno. His adaptive riding includes motorcycle modifications that allow him to ride with a prosthetic left arm. In the 2018 Baja 1000, he was part of a six-rider team that officially finished the legendary event.His story also extends beyond racing. Giovanni has been connected with the Warrior Built Foundation, an organization serving combat veterans and wounded service members through vocational and recreational opportunities, including fabrication, mechanics and off-road racing. He has also participated in Wounded Warrior Project advocacy activities supporting issues affecting post-9/11 veterans.In this episode, we explore:• How the combat-engineer mindset can translate into adapting to life after a major injury• The transition from military service to finding a new mission• Returning to motorcycles after losing his left arm• Adaptive riding and the challenge of desert and off-road competition• The role of camaraderie, machines and racing in rebuilding purpose• Why continuing to serve and advocate for other veterans mattersThis conversation is not simply about overcoming an injury. It is about adaptation, teamwork and discovering that purpose can take a different form when the original mission changes.GuestGiovanni PerezRetired U.S. Army Combat EngineerWounded Veteran | Adaptive Motorcycle & Off-Road Competitor | Veteran AdvocateGuest LinksFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/giovanni.perez.353803LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/giovanni-perez-54847797Instagram (@oggio31): https://www.instagram.com/oggio31/Warrior Built Foundation: https://www.warriorbuilt.org/Featured ResourceDrive On, Echo Bravo ProductionsA documentary project following combat veterans competing in the Baja 1000.https://echobravoproductions.com/drive-onCrisis SupportIf you or a veteran you know is in crisis, contact the Veterans Crisis Line.

In this episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast, we tackle one of the biggest relationship struggles couples face, emotional disconnection. Using a real listener email, we explore why loving each other isn't always enough to feel close, how resentment quietly builds, why communication breaks down, and what happens when two good people slowly become roommates instead of partners. We dive into emotional loneliness, marriage after kids, stay at home parenting, masculine and feminine roles, intimacy, security, boundaries, self worth, and the hidden ways unresolved wounds shape our relationships.If you've ever wondered why your partner doesn't seem to "get" you anymore, why intimacy fades, or how to reconnect without blame, this conversation is for you. We share practical relationship advice on rebuilding emotional connection, communicating needs without resentment, understanding different emotional perspectives, and creating a marriage where both people feel seen, valued, and supported. Whether you're married, dating, or trying to save your relationship, you'll leave with actionable insights that can help you build a stronger, healthier partnership.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

We start a new series of quotes today. This series is on Humility. It is a great follow-up to last month's series on Pride, as the two are a great balance to one another. As I said last month, pride can be a good thing if not taken too far. When we go too far with it, though, it becomes arrogance, and arrogance is ugly on everyone. Humility on the other hand is always welcome and appreciated by anyone who encounters someone else displaying it. And it is an absolutely essential quality for leaders to possess. You will hear 5 quotes in today's episode.As always, I am so grateful to all of you who support the podcast! I do this show because of you. While I enjoy the quotes myself, I do this podcast because many of you who are looking for inspiration and impact from these quotes come back and listen to it on a consistent basis.

Drew and Alex sit down with him to find out what he learned.What we get into:Gloios — ancient Greek athletes would scrape the sweat and oil off their bodies after competing, funnel it into a jar, and sell it at the gymnasium for medicinal purposes. Warts. Hemorrhoids. The price depended on how good the athlete was. Christiane Amanpour interviewed Bill on CNN and said nothing had ever seemed so gross to her. She was correct.Exercise began as war training — tenth century BC, not that different from what we do now. Running, endurance testing, strength work. Sparta was the only place that let women train. The Olympic Games formalized competition in the eighth century BC and athletes became cultural heroes — which is why their sweat was worth buying.Bill's dad was a West Point swimmer, Korean War vet, Purple Heart recipient who lost an eye in combat. Bill chose poetry over a military career — an act of rebellion he's pretty honest about. But his dad dragged him to the Spokane Athletic Club every Sunday after church, and that's where the love of exercise started.Girolamo Mercuriale — a Renaissance physician who wrote the first systematic text on exercise, De Arte Gymnastica, in 1569. Bill tracked down a transcription of his manuscripts in a library in Kansas City, Kansas, that hadn't been checked out in 35 years.The Vatican Library story — Bill had a Guggenheim Fellowship and letters of recommendation and still got interrogated in a small room because he didn't have a PhD. He got in. Everything he needed was already in Kansas City.Staying in it across a lifetime — injuries, aging, motivation, and the underrated importance of rest. Bill has herniated discs, a severed rotator cuff, and is still going. The answer isn't finding the perfect program.

This episode is for anyone navigating the pain of a breakup, divorce, or the end of a long-term relationship and wondering, "What now?" We break down how to know when you're actually ready to date again, why healing is more important than waiting a certain amount of time, and the biggest mistakes people make after a relationship ends. We discuss loneliness versus companionship, trauma bonds, rebound relationships, emotional healing, codependency, self-worth, boundaries, journaling, therapy, and why so many people repeat the same relationship patterns without realizing it. If you're trying to move on after a breakup, recover from divorce, or build healthier relationships in the future, this conversation will help you understand what real healing looks like. You'll also learn the signs that you, or someone you're dating, may not be emotionally ready for another relationship, how to rebuild your identity after years of being with one person, and why self-awareness is the foundation of lasting love. We share practical advice on creating boundaries, recognizing red flags, avoiding rebound relationships, healing attachment wounds, and becoming the kind of person who attracts healthy relationships instead of repeating old cycles. Whether you're recovering from an abusive relationship, ending a marriage, or simply trying to move forward without carrying your past into your future, this episode offers honest conversations and actionable tools to help you heal before you love again.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

Welcome back to the Hangar Z Podcast, brought to you by Vertical HeliCASTS and Valor Plus.On today's episode, we're honored to welcome Deputy Jonathan Lazada and Deputy Chase Gomez of the Indian River County Sheriff's Office Aviation Unit. Jonathan and Chase are the recipients of the Airborne Public Safety Association's Aircrew of the Year Award, as well as the FLIR Vision Award in the Life Saving category, recognizing their extraordinary efforts during a search that ultimately saved three lives.What began as the search for a downed aircraft several miles offshore quickly became a race against time. Operating within the limitations of their aircraft and mission equipment, they relied on disciplined Crew Resource Management, sound decision-making, and an unwavering commitment to the mission. Their persistence paid off when they located three survivors floating in the ocean and directed U.S. Coast Guard rescue assets to their position, leading to a successful rescue.In this conversation, we take a deep dive into every aspect of the mission. Jonathan and Chase walk us through the initial response, the challenges of searching over open water, the limitations of their airframe for this type of operation, and the critical decisions they made while balancing mission success with flight safety. We also discuss the importance of effective Crew Resource Management, maintaining situational awareness under pressure, staying determined when the odds seem stacked against you, and how teamwork became the defining factor in a successful outcome.One of the most rewarding moments came after the rescue, when Jonathan and Chase had the opportunity to meet all three survivors back at the hangar—a powerful reminder of why public safety aviation professionals do what they do.This is an incredible story of professionalism, perseverance, and teamwork under the most demanding conditions. We know you're going to enjoy this conversation.Watch the 2026 FLIR Vision Awards | Life Saver Award with Jonathan and Chase at this link.Thank you to our sponsors Precision Aviation Group, Spectrolab and Summit Aviation.

Each former student shares what drew them to Sargent, often through family connections to the company, and describes their experiences going through the Academy between 2016 and 2019. They talk about their first days on the job, the mentors who helped them grow, and the moment each of them stepped into more responsibility on their crews. The conversation shifts into leadership, with Pete Perrizo noting that leadership isn't tied to title; it's something everyone practices every day, for better or worse.If you liked this week's episode and are interested in becoming an Employee-Owner at Sargent, please visit our careers page on the Sargent website.https://sargent.us/apply/If you have an episode suggestion, please send your idea to:sbennage@sargent.us

Most teams don't fail because they lack knowledge. They fail because nobody acts when it matters. Captain Brad Newbury has spent 40 years in firefighting and prehospital medicine studying the difference between people who freeze and people who move. As President and CEO of the National Medical Education & Training Center and author of The Saved Effect and The First Responder Advantage, he's trained thousands of lifesavers worldwide. Joining him is his daughter Kiera Newbury, an EMT carrying that mission into the next generation.In this episode, Brad and Kiera break down how high-stakes teams build the trust, clarity, and shared standards that make action automatic under pressure, and what it takes to pass a culture of readiness from one generation to the next. If your team hesitates, overthinks, or waits for permission, this conversation shows you what the best crews in the world do differently.TranscriptBrad Newbury FacebookBrad Newbury InstagramBrad Newbury LinkedInThe Saved Effect TikTokKiera Newbury LinkedInKiera Newbury InstagramKiera Newbury Facebook

Welcome back to the Hangar Z Podcast, brought to you by Vertical HeliCASTS and Valor Plus.On today's episode, we're honored to welcome Deputy Jonathan Lazada and Deputy Chase Gomez of the Indian River County Sheriff's Office Aviation Unit. Jonathan and Chase are the recipients of the Airborne Public Safety Association's Aircrew of the Year Award, as well as the FLIR Vision Award in the Life Saving category, recognizing their extraordinary efforts during a search that ultimately saved three lives.What began as the search for a downed aircraft several miles offshore quickly became a race against time. Operating within the limitations of their aircraft and mission equipment, they relied on disciplined Crew Resource Management, sound decision-making, and an unwavering commitment to the mission. Their persistence paid off when they located three survivors floating in the ocean and directed U.S. Coast Guard rescue assets to their position, leading to a successful rescue.In this conversation, we take a deep dive into every aspect of the mission. Jonathan and Chase walk us through the initial response, the challenges of searching over open water, the limitations of their airframe for this type of operation, and the critical decisions they made while balancing mission success with flight safety. We also discuss the importance of effective Crew Resource Management, maintaining situational awareness under pressure, staying determined when the odds seem stacked against you, and how teamwork became the defining factor in a successful outcome.One of the most rewarding moments came after the rescue, when Jonathan and Chase had the opportunity to meet all three survivors back at the hangar—a powerful reminder of why public safety aviation professionals do what they do.This is an incredible story of professionalism, perseverance, and teamwork under the most demanding conditions. We know you're going to enjoy this conversation.Watch the 2026 FLIR Vision Awards | Life Saver Award with Jonathan and Chase at this link.Thank you to our sponsors CENTUM, MD Helicopters and Quantum Helicopters.

Start your free trial at trainheroic.comThe Core Four — Four Cognitive Traps Killing Military Human PerformanceDrew and Alex gave a standing-room-only breakout at the H2F Symposium on this. Now they have time to actually unpack it. Four heuristics that show up everywhere in military human performance — and in every human-run organization. You can't escape them, but you can at least recognize them. What we get into:Goodhart's Law — when a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure. The AFT was designed to signal readiness. The moment it became an incentivized metric, people started optimizing the score instead of the fitness. Same thing happened in Vietnam with body counts. The cure: use multiple metrics, reward more than test scores, and acknowledge what the assessment was actually supposed to tell you.McNamara Fallacy — only what can be quantified matters. The first step is measuring what's easy. The second is disregarding what can't be measured. The third is assuming the unmeasurable isn't important. The fourth is deciding it doesn't exist. Sound familiar? Social cohesion, trust, culture, the music playing in the gym — none of these show up on a dashboard. All of them matter enormously. Every minute a coach spends measuring is a minute they spend not coaching.Hammond's Corollary — what gets measured gets managed, but what most needs managing isn't always measurable. The soldier with a perfect AFT score who can't pick up a ruck without throwing out his back. Fitness versus capability. Athleticism versus fitness. You know it when you see it — and just because you can't put it on a graph doesn't mean it doesn't exist.Nazareth syndrome — no man is a prophet in his own home. The one place Jesus got the most skepticism was Nazareth, because they knew him as the carpenter. The embedded human performance team dealing with real constraints gets ignored. The outside consultant with slick branding and a two-day seminar gets the senior leader's full attention. You can't eliminate this one — but you can use it to your advantage.Mentioned in this episode:Drew's article — The Death of Periodization at mopsandmoes.comChris Frankel — assessment framework: camera, map, crystal ball, engineVF Ridgway, 1956 — the actual origin of "what gets measured gets managed"Justice Potter Stewart, 1964 — the porn quote.

If you've ever wondered whether Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) causes abuse, or whether someone is using their diagnosis to avoid accountability, this conversation tackles one of the most misunderstood topics in mental health and relationships. We break down the difference between emotional dysregulation and abusive behavior, explain why a diagnosis is never an excuse for manipulation, and discuss how untreated trauma can create destructive relationship patterns. You'll also learn about splitting, emotional reasoning, fear of abandonment, codependency, walking on eggshells, gaslighting, boundaries, attachment styles, DBT, accountability, and what genuine recovery actually looks like.Throughout this discussion, we share personal experiences with BPD, healing, therapy, and the work it takes to build emotionally healthy relationships. Whether you're living with Borderline Personality Disorder, dating someone with BPD, recovering from an abusive relationship, or simply trying to better understand trauma and emotional regulation, this episode offers practical insights without shame or stigma. Our goal isn't to label people as good or bad. It's to separate explanation from excuse, compassion from enabling, and help people recognize that healing begins when we take responsibility for what our pain produces.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.
