    On this episode of Truth From The Stand, Aaron Hepler and I catch up after a long season and miles on the boots, talking about how seasons evolve and expectations need to with them. We get into adapting under pressure, trusting your gut when plans fall apart, and why dogs and bird hunts can be the best reset a big-game hunter can get. It's a conversation about balancing technology with instinct, passing on what matters to new hunters, and learning when to let go of old goals so the hunt stays honest and fun. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM PODCAST 473 Hunting pressure forces flexibility—new spots and fresh thinking often pay off. Technology can help, but instinct and woodsmanship still drive success. Hunting is about the journey, lessons learned, and time spent outdoors—not just the kill. Hunting with dogs and bird hunting offer a mental reset from big-game pressure. Mentoring new hunters strengthens the community and reshapes perspective. Letting go of rigid expectations makes hunting more rewarding and sustainable.

    In Episode 382 of The Bowhunter Chronicles Podcast, host Adam Miller sits down with Josh Teulker, creator of the Before the Echo YouTube channel, for an in-depth conversation on traditional bowhunting, modern hunting culture, and the ethical challenges facing today's hunters. Josh shares his background growing up in a hunting family and how those early experiences shaped his approach to whitetail deer hunting and eventually led him to transition from compound bows to traditional archery. The discussion covers the differences between traditional and modern hunting styles, realistic expectations for success, and why patience, discipline, and woodsmanship still matter. The conversation dives into e-scouting, hunting pressure, and what it's like to hunt multiple states while navigating changing hunting regulations, access issues, and public land challenges. Josh and Adam also discuss the growing influence of social media on hunting, how technology is reshaping the sport, and whether innovation is helping or hurting the future of ethical bowhunting. Additional topics include Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD), Michigan's hunting culture, and the importance of protecting hunting traditions while adapting to a rapidly changing landscape. This episode is packed with insight for bowhunters, traditional archers, whitetail hunters, and conservation-minded outdoorsmen who care about the long-term integrity of the sport. 00:00 Podcast Notes 02:19 Introduction02:45 Before the Echo Origin Story05:29 Traditional vs Compound Bow Hunting08:00 Growing Up in a Hunting Family10:41 Transition to Traditional Archery13:10 Bowhunting Strategies & Techniques16:06 E-Scouting & Out-of-State Hunting18:42 Locating & Tracking Whitetail Deer21:21 Expectations & Standards in Hunting23:56 Social Media & Hunting Pressure26:27 Hunting Ethics & Regulations37:37 Changes in Hunting Regulations39:01 Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD)40:27 Michigan Hunting Culture42:26 Technology's Role in Hunting48:43 Future of Hunting & Access01:01:28 Family Traditions & Hunting Legacy https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoEUun2B14oDuAdhWJoSEtA Painted Arrow Outdoors – BHC15 (15% off)https://www.paintedarrow.com Spartan Forge – BOWHUNTER (25% off)https://www.spartanforge.ai Latitude Outdoors -BHC (15% off)https://www.latitudeoutdoors.com Genesis 3D Printinghttps://genesis3dprinting.com BigShot Targets - BHC (10 % off)https://www.bigshottargets.com Vitalize Seedhttps://vitalizeseed.com Zinger Fletcheshttps://www.zingerfletches.com Additional partners:https://huntworthgear.comhttps://waypointtv.com/#podcast Patreon: http://bit.ly/BHCPatreon The Bowhunter Chronicles Podcast – Episode 382Hunting in the Echo Chamber | Josh Teulker (Before the Echo)⏱ Episode Chapters▶️ Check Out Before the Echo

    Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing how work gets done across nearly every industry. As automation accelerates and technology reshapes careers, parents and educators are asking pressing questions. What kinds of jobs will still exist? How should students prepare for an uncertain future? And what kinds of skills will truly endure?In this episode of BaseCamp Live, host Davies Owens is joined by Tami Peterson, founder and CEO of Life Architects Coaching. Together, they explore how AI is transforming college admissions, career pathways, and workforce expectations, and why human formation matters more than ever.Davies and Tami discuss how colleges are already responding to AI's influence, particularly in admissions. With AI-generated essays becoming commonplace, many schools are rethinking how they evaluate applicants and are placing renewed emphasis on in-person writing, oral exams, classroom engagement, and mentorship-driven learning environments. These shifts highlight a growing desire to see how students actually think, reason, and communicate.The conversation then turns to the workforce and what lies ahead for today's students. While some technical roles may decline or evolve, employers increasingly value qualities that technology cannot replicate.

    Technology doesn't fail, systems do.In this episode, Jay sits down with David Levine to explore the core of systems through the lens of technology and how the tools we build, adopt, and rely on quietly shape behavior, culture, and outcomes inside organizations. This is not a conversation about software features or trends—it's about how technological systems influence the way people think, communicate, and make decisions.David breaks down why most tech frustrations aren't caused by bad tools, but by poorly designed systems around them: fragmented workflows, unclear ownership, misaligned incentives, and a lack of intentional architecture. Together, they discuss how technology should support human behavior, not complicate it and why leaders must take responsibility for the systems they allow to exist.The conversation challenges the assumption that more technology equals better results. Instead, it reframes progress as clarity, integration, and purpose. When systems are intentional, technology becomes an amplifier of culture. When they're not, it becomes noise.This episode is for leaders, operators, and builders who want technology to create leverage not friction and who understand that culture, efficiency, and execution all live downstream from the systems we design.A practical, thoughtful discussion on building technological systems that actually work for people—not against them.

    As we head into 2026, leaders are facing a familiar challenge in a new form. Expectations are higher. Attention spans are shorter. Technology is accelerating. And yet, the differentiator hasn't changed. In this episode I talk about what is needed to drive employee experience, customer experience, and hospitality to drive business results. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why leadership, hospitality, and CX are no longer separate conversations • How employee experience directly shapes customer behavior and loyalty • Why hospitality is a strategic growth lever, not a "soft" skill • The rise of premiumization and intentional moments that matter • How technology should enable humanity, not replace it • The leadership behaviors that will differentiate brands in 2026 • Practical questions every leader should be asking right now Perfect for: hospitality leaders, business owners, CEOS, COOs, CX/EX professionals, operational managers, retail and service teams, training and development leaders, and anyone responsible for people and performance (and sales growth) in 2026. If you are ready to start 2026 with clarity, confidence, and momentum, this episode is your launch point.

    In Episode 350 of My EdTech Life, Dr. Alfonso “Fonz” Mendoza sits down with Lindy Hockenbary (LindyHoc), a K–12 EdTech advisor, strategist, and professional learning leader known for helping teachers make technology work for real learning. This conversation goes straight to the issues educators actually face, the “one more thing” overload, AI misconceptions, and how to move beyond AI detectors toward authentic assessments students can't fake. Lindy breaks down how AI literacy fits inside core instruction (not as a separate add-on), why we must redesign assessment to emphasize process over product, and how tools with guardrails + teacher dashboards change what “safe classroom AI use” can look like. You'll also hear why Lindy's work is especially grounded in small and rural schools, where staffing, compliance review, and budget constraints make AI adoption harder, but also more urgent.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Guest Introduction02:05 Lindy Hockenbary's Educational Journey04:57 The Impact of Technology on Education09:19 Changing Mindsets in Education11:00 Integrating AI into Core Curriculum16:42 Redesigning Assessment in the Age of AI23:37 Authenticity in Learning and AI Challenges24:24 Misconceptions About AI in Education25:52 AI Literacy and Compliance in Teaching31:58 The Impact of ChatGPT on Educators36:00 Challenges in Rural Education and AI Adoption40:39 Final Thoughts and Future DirectionsLindy's website: https://www.lindyhoc.com/Make EdTech 100 podcast page: https://www.lindyhoc.com/podcastSponsors ShoutoutThank you to our sponsors: Book Creator, Eduaide.AI, and Peel Back Education for supporting My EdTech Life.Peel Back Education exists to uncover, share, and amplify powerful, authentic stories from inside classrooms and beyond, helping educators, learners, and the wider community connect meaningfully with the people and ideas shaping education today.

This isn't about following optimistic forecasts; it's about mapping a strategy based on the actual trends and ground-level shifts we are seeing as 2025 draws to a close.These insights aren't coming from a crystal ball, but from the practical realities we are actively using to shape our own investment strategy for the year ahead.If you're planning acquisitions, dispositions, or operational changes in 2026, this episode provides a practical framework for adjusting expectations and positioning your business accordingly.The 8 Predictions Covered in This Episode#1: Real estate is becoming a highly politicized asset class#2: C-class valuations will struggle to rebound#3: Light value-add becomes the new standard#4: The property management divide will explode#5: The market trades more efficiently (especially for smaller assets)#6: Price beats amenities in B/C class assets#7: The homeownership gap widens#8: Multifamily valuations stay flatThe investors who understand these shifts and position accordingly will be the ones who generate returns in 2026. The ones who keep underwriting (and more importantly, operating assets) like it's 2022-2025 are going to struggle.Are you looking to invest in real estate, but don't want to deal with the hassle of finding great deals, signing on debt, and managing tenants?

    Not every hairdresser wants to be self-employed, and in this episode, I explain why that's not only okay, but why it creates a real opportunity for salon owners to rethink what an employee-employer-based business can and should look like today. Too often, self-employment is sold as the only path to freedom, flexibility, and financial success, without anyone stopping to talk honestly about the real costs involved.In today's episode, I talk about what many stylists don't calculate before they make the leap: rent, tax, product, tech, training, marketing, lost holiday pay, and the time spent working on the business instead of in it. For plenty of people, the reality is that they end up earning about the same or less than they did as an employee, but with a lot more responsibility and pressure.I also talk about what salon owners must do if they want to attract and keep great people in 2026 and beyond. The old rules don't apply anymore. Being good at hair isn't enough. If you want to build a business that thrives, you need leadership skills, business skills, and the willingness to adapt.On a final note.

He talks about how AI is reshaping business and why human connection remains essential for both customers and employees.  This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more:    What is the difference between customer experience and customer service?  Why is the concept "the customer is always right" often considered misguided?  How can companies benefit from shifting their focus from internal processes to customer-centric thinking?  What role does behavioral science play in improving customer experience?  How is artificial intelligence affecting customer service and employee roles in modern organizations?  Top Takeaways:    Customer experience isn't just a buzzword or a fancy way of saying customer service. It is not just about the moments where the customer needs help. It is about every interaction throughout the entire customer journey.  Customers are not always right, but they are always the customer. Customers sometimes have complaints or requests that don't align with the business's offerings, especially if they're not the target audience. Treat everyone with respect, even when you can't give them exactly what they want. Even when they are wrong, let them be wrong with dignity and keep the relationship open for the future as much as possible.  Behavioral science helps explain why customers act the way they do, make certain choices, and even how they respond to situations. Knowledge about how humans think and feel is just as essential as knowing how to organize teams or create new products. Understanding human behavior helps leaders make decisions that truly connect with employees and customers.  Success isn't just about financial results, but also about making life better for people inside and outside the company. Leaders who keep the well-being of employees, customers, and communities in mind make decisions that will have a positive impact on everyone.   AI is changing how work gets done, especially in customer service. AI helps humans do higher-level, creative, and caring work. AI can handle simple tasks, so humans can focus on building real relationships and solving complex problems.  Technology creates new opportunities. AI will not replace humans. It will change the type of work that humans do. Just like how the internet created tons of new jobs, AI will reshape the workplace and introduce new careers.   Plus, Shep and Bruce discuss why it is important for individuals and companies to make sure they are always moving towards their "North Star." Tune in!  Quote:   "One of the absolute misguided beliefs is that the customer is always right. They aren't. All you have to do is look at yourself in the mirror. Everyone's been a customer and not always been right when they've complained or seen a problem."  About:    Bruce Temkin is widely recognized as the "Godfather of Customer Experience," helping to shape customer and employee experience and advising leaders on how to keep people at the center of their organizational processes. He is the host of the podcast, Humanity at Scale: Redefining Leadership.    Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and host of Amazing Business Radio.    Learn more about your ad choices.

    This episode features Dr. Glen Broderick and Dr. May Beth Hall, speakers at the 2025 ADSA Ruminant Nutrition Symposium: Anomalies in Analyzed Nutrient Composition of Feedstuffs.Dr. Broderick's presentation was titled “Protein analysis methodology.” The high points of his talk include recommendations for nitrogen analysis in feeds, potential improvements in determining protein degradability and undegradability in the rumen, and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) analysis of amino acid composition of feedstuffs. (7:57)Dr. Hall's presentation was titled “Success and continuing challenges in analyzing nonfiber carbohydrates.” She gives some history of the analysis of non-fiber carbohydrates and talks about starch assays and how water-soluble carbohydrates are not solely composed of sugars. She also explains how microbes make decisions on which substrates to ferment and which to store for later. (12:47)The panelists talk about challenges in obtaining real-time nutrient analyses in order to make ration changes. They recommend using rolling averages rather than a single sample and using milk urea nitrogen as a way to evaluate if something is not quite right with a ration. (21:17)Dr. Broderick notes he recommends that scientists no longer use the Kjeldahl method of nitrogen analysis, that we look for new or alternative methodology other than in situ digestibility to determine protein degradability, and that NIR analysis of amino acids be used to make ration decisions when calibrated for the feedstuff under consideration. (27:10)Dr. Hall recommends using the appropriate carbohydrate standard when measuring water-soluble carbohydrates: sucrose for fresh forages, fructose for cool-season grasses with high fructan content,  etc. She also notes that some feeds, like bakery waste or amylase-modified grain, contain soluble starch, which shows up in both the starch category and the water-soluble category in a feed analysis, essentially double-dipping. Lastly, she suggests that nonfiber carbohydrates remain a bit of a nutritional black box and we continue to learn more with improved technology.   (29:36)Panelists share their take-home thoughts.
