Two classmates. Thirty years of ministry. And one question that wouldn't go away: Am I truly loved by God? Today, Francis Chan sits down with long-time friend, Pastor Ken Murphy to talk about the drift from joy into performance and the moment a revelation of God's grace finally broke through. This is a conversation about moving from “working to be loved” to living from a love that never changes. It's the heartbeat of Francis' new book, Beloved, an invitation to trade insecurity for assurance and worshipful joy. Beloved, is available for purchase now wherever books are sold.
Send us a textWhat happens when you've placed your hope in all the wrong things and they've left you empty? Yvonne Santiago's powerful testimony traces her journey from a fatherless childhood to divorce at 27, career upheavals, and finally discovering authentic hope in Christ.Growing up Catholic in Nebraska after immigrating from Germany, Yvonne knew about God but lacked a personal relationship with Jesus. This distinction would prove crucial as she navigated single parenthood with three young children, feeling marked by what she called a "scarlet letter" of rejection. Like Solomon in Ecclesiastes, she chased fulfillment through career advancement in horse racing, eventually securing management positions with impressive salaries. Yet emotional emptiness persisted beneath her busy schedule of work, school, and parenting.When job loss forced her to move back with her parents—a humbling experience for someone in her thirties—God began redirecting her path. A career change led her to Delaware, where meeting her current husband introduced her to the concept of a personal relationship with Jesus. Reading the Bible systematically for the first time, Yvonne discovered freedom from the constant worry and fear that had characterized much of her life.Most remarkable is how this newfound hope transformed her approach to marriage and parenting. Having grown up without a father figure and experienced divorce, she had no biblical model for relationships. Through books, prayer, and Scripture, she learned principles that revolutionized her marriage and parenting style. Thirty years later, all her children love and serve the Lord, and her grandchildren are growing up without the brokenness that characterized her own childhood.Whether you're struggling with relationships, career setbacks, or simply feeling that your life lacks purpose, Yvonne's testimony reminds us that authentic hope comes only through daily relationship with Christ. Her powerful statement, "I've regretted many decisions in my life, but I've never regretted obeying the Lord," stands as a challenge to all of us seeking lasting fulfillment.New episodes every Mondaywww.lifehousemot.cominfo@lifehousede.com Join us Sundays at 9 & 11 AM Intro music by Joey Blair
In this episode of the Glowing Older podcast, host Nancy Griffin interviews Michael Clinton, founder and CEO of Roar Forward. They discuss his book Roar Into the Second Half of Your Life, and the concept of New Longevity. Clinton shares insights on reimagining life after 50, the importance of health span over lifespan, and the evolving role of age inclusivity in society and business. The conversation also touches on the impact of ageism, the significance of travel, and the need for continuous learning and personal growth. About Michael Michael Clinton, in partnership with Hearst, is founder and CEO of ROAR Forward, a business-to-business intelligence, insights and content platform. ROAR Forward's primary focus is the new demographic segment of individuals aged 50+who are redefining the second half of life in their careers, passions and lifestyles. ROAR Forward offerings include the ROAR Report with proprietary data and research, bulletins, seminars, workshops, along with original content and events that shed light on the dynamically changing market demographic of individuals aged 50-plus who now comprise 35% of the population. Clinton serves on the board of The Stanford Center on Longevity and is a globally recognized speaker about the New Longevity. In December 2023, he was named to Estee Lauder's first-ever Longevity Collective, a curated group of influential experts and global pioneers in longevity science and lifestyle. Clinton's best-selling book, ROAR into the second half of your life, now in its fourth printing, is the springboard for ROAR Forward. As a contributing writer for Esquire, Men's Health and Oprah Daily, Clinton frequently covers the topic of the new longevity movement. In 2024, Men's Health named Clinton “the pivot pioneer” in a feature about the 5 men leading the longevity conversation. In May 2019, Clinton was named senior media advisor to the CEO of Hearst after 21 years at the company. Previously, he was president of marketing & publishing director of Hearst Magazines and was a member of the board of directors of Hearst Corporation. Prior to that, Clinton was executive vice president of Condé Nast Publications. Key Takeaways The New Longevity is about reinventing, reimagining, and rethinking the second half of life. Healthspan plus Wealthspan equals a great Lifespan.The acronym for ROAR is, the R, the reimaginationprocess. O own your numbers. A the action plan, a program that we call life layering, and the final R is your relationships, reassessing the people around you in the second half of life.The huge population of 50-plus impacts company and brands strategies, marketing and advertising, society and culture and infrastructure. Thirty five percent of the US population is currently 50 plus, with 60 million people 65 or older, growing to 80 million by 2040. To put into perspective, 100 years ago there were only seven million people over 65 in the US. Advertising needs to be age inclusive. Imagery and messaging in advertising reinforces ageist thinking, which becomes self-imposed ageism.
While European wind giants like Maersk and Ørsted face cancellations and layoffs, America's offshore wind projects in Virginia and Massachusetts are surging ahead, proving that genuine energy demand trumps political headwinds when the physics and economics align.

And subscribe to Rosemary Barnes' YouTube channel here. Have a question we can answer on the show? Email us! It's an interesting time to be in wind energy....In a shipyard in Singapore, there's a vessel worth four hundred and seventy-five million dollars. It's ninety-eight percent complete, built specifically to install wind turbines off the coast of New York. And it's just floating there... abandoned. Maersk Offshore Wind walked away from the contract last week. Just cancelled it. Left Seatrium, the shipbuilder, holding a near-finished vessel with nowhere to go. The ship was supposed to build Empire Wind, but now lawyers are circling and nobody knows what happens next. This is happening at the same time Orsted, the company that pioneered offshore wind energy, announces it's cutting two thousand jobs. That's a quarter of their entire workforce. In Germany, Eno Energy just filed for bankruptcy, leaving two hundred and eighty workers unemployed and the state government holding thirteen million euros in loan guarantees. You might think the wind industry is collapsing. But, you'd be wrong. Very wrong. Thirty miles off the coast of Virginia Beach, workers just accomplished something remarkable. They hammered one hundred and seventy-six massive foundations into the Atlantic seabed, finishing the job in just five months... ahead of schedule... in what everyone agrees was perfect weather. And the weather along the East Cost of the US has been splendid this year. This is Dominion Energy's Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind project, and when it starts generating power next March, it will be America's largest offshore wind farm. Two-point-six gigawatts of power, enough for half a million homes. But here's what makes this story truly odd in today's US political environment.... Republican Congresswoman Jen Kiggans from Virginia Beach stood up on the House floor last month to defend this wind farm. Not attack it... defend it. She explained that this project provides a five hundred million dollar power grid upgrade to Naval Air Station Oceana. She called it a matter of national security. House Speaker Mike Johnson from Louisiana, oil country, personally told reporters he delivered Kiggans' message directly to the President. "We want to do right by Virginians," he said. Think about that for a moment. In this political climate, a Republican Speaker is defending wind power. Why? Because Virginia desperately needs electricity. Data centers are consuming power at unprecedented rates, the military requires reliable energy, and this project has already created two thousand American jobs while pumping two billion dollars into the economy. Meanwhile, across the Atlantic, something interesting is also developing. Chinese manufacturer Ming Yang Smart Energy just announced they're investing two billion dollars to build a turbine factory in Scotland. They're promising fifteen hundred jobs for Scottish workers, with production starting in twenty twenty-eight. The job creations and investment amount sounds great, but there are still many hurdles to overcome. The reliability and insurability of Ming Yang turbines is still a hot topic amongst wind energy engineers. And security concerns with Chinese turbines will surely raise eyebrows of the UK, EU and US governments. Only time will tell.... Remember that ship floating in Singapore?

It has been a hot minute since the last installment of a discography-series episode dropped, and I couldn't be happier than to share that I was able to convince Sammy Sanchez to join me for a breakdown of the King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard catalog.Sammy and I go all the way back to Two Thousand and Twenty-Two, when I met him for the first time after having his awesome father, Cesar, sit down with me to talk music and life.I've gotten to know Sammy via these (now five total) podcast conversations, and that lane of my life is richer for it.In our initial conversation, we talked LCD Soundsystem, Pink Floyd, and Tom Waits. Our second installment peeked into the Tom Waits discography. We did a Beck episode, and a Radiohead episode, and now...it's Kay Gee & the Elle Double-you, baby!How does one attempt to describe King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard? Well...they're an Australian rock band that has broken the mold of prolific studio recordings. In short, they formed in 2010, and have dropped 30 records in that span, and no, there are no typos in this sentence.Thirty records!Beyond that, you just have to see for yourself. They can get heavy. They sometimes journey. And -- from time to time -- they jam. Here's the collection (to the best of our knowledge):Willoughby's Beach (2011)12 Bar Bruise (2012)Eyes Like the Sky (2013)Float Along -- Fill Your Lungs (2013)Oddments (2014)I'm in Your Mind Fuzz (2014)Quarters!

And in case you were curious, yes, that was exhausting to type and italicize. So, yes, I can imagine how you totally didn't read it at all.Regardless, Sammy and I motored through the thing and did so (in my estimation) with some sense of efficiency; we didn't dawdle and we certainly didn't speed.Needless, to say, I hope there's a way for some folks to find this conversation enjoyable, be they K.G. & the L.W. fans or not. It was certainly fun and rewarding to do it.Many thanks to Sammy for his knowledge and his energy, and thank you to all of you that support the show.Cheers.copyright disclaimer: I do not own the rights to the audio samples contained in this episode (or any other, for that matter).

What do buyers and sellers really need an agent for, beyond opening doors and filling forms In this episode of the Real Estate Excellence Podcast, Tracy Hayes sits down Maria Raymer. Maria's journey from a young agent who questioned her value to a market leader known for straight talk and service. She explains how treating people with honesty and investing real time in them creates momentum that money follows. She shares how early office mentorship and daily reps built skill and confidence, plus how to communicate value even when you are new and your clients are older than you are. Maria then lays out practical, battle tested playbooks. Prep sellers so inspections do not derail deals. Favor quality over quantity in lead gen. Build durable referral flywheels through useful quarterly touch points not holiday spam. And when growth hits, hire a transaction coordinator first so you can stay in your zone on listing appointments while files move flawlessly to close.

This week, Gare and I got to talk with Jennifer Fawcett about her serial killer thriller Keep This For Me! We dive into her inspiration for the story, how she was drawn to writing about the aftermath of a serial killer's actions, and how grief and trauma effect families for generations.Keep This For Me SynopsisOne hot August night in 1993, a young couple go to a party. When their car breaks down, they are picked up by a truck driver who attacks the man and abducts the woman. She is never seen again.That woman was Fiona Green's mother.When the trucker, Eddie Ward, is caught, a mass grave of bodies is discovered in his backyard but Fiona's mother isn't there. Thirty years later, on his prison deathbed, Ward insists that he didn't kill her, so Fiona finds herself back in the small town where her mother disappeared. Fighting demons of her own, she's shocked when history repeats itself: another woman, another roadside breakdown, and another disappearance. Only this time the primary suspect is Jason Ward, Eddie's son. Desperate, Fiona hunts down answers, unaware that she is being drawn into a dangerous trap.With Jennifer Fawcett's signature “suspenseful and immersive” (Library Journal) prose, Keep This for Me is a fresh, spellbinding exploration of what we unwillingly inherit from our parents and how one random act can send ripples years into the future.

A Washington Post poll reveals that 47% of Americans blame President Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress for the government shutdown. Thirty percent point to Democrats, while 23% remain unsure. The poll also shows strong support for extending subsidies under the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare — the central issue Democrats cite for backing the shutdown.

Is this the way they say the future's meant to be?It's November 1995. Pop was pulling in many different directions. But predominantly, it was swaggering its way towards the end of the century in a confident, Union Jack draped fashion. Whilst dance music, boybands, TV based retro crooners and a range of other co-stars were vying for our well earned pounds in the likes of HMV and Virgin, it was the guitar driven sounds of Britpop that were sitting at the heart of most CD wish lists as Christmas approached. As always, the team at NOW were on hand to make sense of the latest and greatest hits from 1995 and successfully curate another selection of Top Chart Hits for us. Volume 32, graced with a wonderful wintry sunsheeeine (sorry) setting, welcomed listeners into two CDs (or cassettes or even vinyl!) containing forty of them. Legacy acts such as Queen, Meat Loaf, U2, Tina Turner and Cher provided the familiarity. A sparkling range of great (and, lets be honest, a few not so great) dance bangers including N-Trance, Berri and The Original. But for most purchasing or unwrapping NOW32 in 1995, it was the allure of the likes of Pulp, Radiohead, Cast, Paul Weller AND, of course, the chart battle of blur and Oasis that makes this particular volume of our favourite compilation so iconic. A moment in time?A moment when Britpop demonstrated that it has outgrown NME and was now on the Nine O' clock news.Joining me for this episode is music and travel journalist Emma Harrison.Together, come back with us THIRTY years to revisit a time when Pulp were the biggest pre-selling artist on Island records, when Jimmy Nail was a genuine pin up for 12 year old girls(!), when Bono and The Edge were writing Bond themes and something called Sacred Spirit was breaking out of aromatherapy rooms into the (very low end of the) charts!Rediscover some genuine 90s classics from the likes of McAlmont & Butler and Everything but the Girl. Revel at how wonderful the HELP compilation album still is. Amaze yourself at a time when Christmas TOTP was presented by Bjork and Jack Dee (and they got away with it, spectacularly) and as always, argue with the presenters and their ‘missing' track selections from 1995. And celebrate (yes, CELEBRATE) the total lack of Robson and Jerome!Sometimes, NOW really do get it completely right. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro is expanding on his promise to preserve vaccine access across the commonwealth… after a reversal on recommendations from the federal government. Pennsylvania researchers are pushing back against the recent announcement from the White House of a direct link between autism and the use of the painkiller acetaminophen, the active ingredient in Tylenol. Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania are exploring a treatment that uses a patient’s own body in a surprising way to fight cancer. CAR T-Cell Therapy: A Breakthrough in Cancer Treatment and the Path Ahead | The Spark House lawmakers approved background checks to purchase any type of firearm in Pennsylvania. The proposal faces long odds of passing the state Senate. Property owners in Pennsylvania who are worried about landslides and sinkholes may soon be able to breathe easier, after the state House voted to create a state-backed insurance program to cover them. As the federal government shutdown enters its third day, access to 400 National Park Service sites is varying on a park-by-park basis. Here in Central Pennsylvania, the Gettysburg National Military Park Museum and Visitor Center is remaining open and maintaining its regular hours for visitors. It's a different scene in Philadelphia. Thirty-three Pennsylvania counties will elect a sheriff on November 4th. And Lancaster is named to the list of "best small cities in America" as determined by WalletHub.

In this episode of Sober Stories from Everyday People we explore one of the most asked questions: when does sobriety actually get better?The truth is, there is no single timeline. The journey begins with what can feel like a muddy and overwhelming start, with cravings, exhaustion, emotions running high and a sense of loss that can feel like saying goodbye to your best friend. Social pressures and the fear of missing out only add to the challenge, but this stage is temporary. Think of it as planting a seed. Change is happening beneath the surface, even before you see the growth.Then come the subtle shifts. The first genuine belly laugh. The first deep night's sleep. The first morning you look in the mirror and see brightness return to your eyes. These breadcrumb moments are small but powerful reminders that things are changing, one step at a time.Sobriety does not get better because of a date on the calendar, it gets better through the moments you live. A sober birthday. Dancing at a wedding without a drink. Handling stress and realising you survived it sober. Brick by brick, a new life is built.We also talk through the milestones many people notice. Thirty days when your body thanks you. Ninety days when the fog begins to lift. Six months when new rhythms feel stronger than old habits. One year when you can look back on a whole cycle of life without alcohol. Beyond that, sobriety shifts into something bigger. It becomes your normal.The turning point comes when the focus moves from what you have lost to what you have gained. Peaceful mornings. Money saved. Stronger connections. Self-respect. Trust in yourself. Joy in the little things. From there, the bigger payoffs shine through, such as better health, deeper relationships, more freedom, and the space to create the life you want.Helpful links: Get help from me directly by visiting www.sassysobermum.com Visit THRIVE Sober Coaching for sobriety guidance & resources here www.thrivesobercoaching.com Get access to my new online sobriety self-paced course here https://checkout.teachable.com/secure/1930842/checkout/order_jmr0kg9w(use coupon code HALFPRICE) Join my super friendly and safe online women's sober community here: https://thrive-af-community.circle.so/checkout/thrive-subscription Email sassysobermum at thrive@sassysobermum.com Alcohol Change UKWebsite: https://www.alcoholchange.org.ukHelpline: 0800 917 8282 (Available Monday to Friday 9 AM - 8 PM)Mind (Mental Health Support)Website: https://www.mind.org.ukHelpline: 0300 123 3393NHS Alcohol Support ServicesWebsite: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/alcohol-misuse
This is the sequel to my episode on what makes a good man. That one was about character. This one is about the daily work. The things you earn. The things you can't buy. Three things every man needs to work on every single day. A fit body. A calm mind. A house full of love. None of these come easy. None of these stay without consistency. All of them are temporary without intention. A fit body isn't about six-pack abs. It's about showing up. Five days a week. Thirty minutes minimum. Watching what you put in your body. The formula is simple. Your target weight times ten equals your calorie intake. Add some dumbbell work. That's it. Stop overcomplicating it. A calm mind doesn't mean you're not an entrepreneur with twenty-seven ideas in the shower. It means emotional stability. Being grounded. You can get angry and still have a calm mind. You can get pissed off and still have a calm mind. It's about bringing yourself back to baseline. Making choices instead of reacting. That's what leads to a house full of love. Theodore Roosevelt said it best. The only man who never makes mistakes is the man who never does anything. You want to know why you're stuck. You're playing it too safe. You think you need fifty grand saved before you start. You think you need all your ducks in a row. That's bullshit. Risk is the only way to gain everything you want. Big things are only obtainable by people who make big screw-ups. The third thing is patience. A man who is a master of patience is a master of everything else. Not patience with everyone else. Patience with yourself. You can't be patient with your kids driving you crazy if you're not patient with yourself. You miss a deadline. You yell at someone you love. Be patient with yourself. Apologize. Tell them you're working on it. Tell them you'll do better. That's how you build a huge heart.

Dicken Bettinger, Ed.D., received his undergraduate degree from St. Lawrence University and began his career teaching high school students. Many students came to Dicken with problems that they were experiencing. This began his search for something to teach people that would increase their well-being. He received his master's degree from Pennsylvania State University and his Doctoral degree in counseling psychology from Boston University. He became licensed as a clinical psychologist in 1983 and retired from his psychotherapy practice after working as a psychologist for 31 years. Thirty-three years ago, he met Sydney Banks who had an enlightenment experience where he realized the Three Principles that underlie all human experience. Dicken had finally found universal principles that he could teach anyone. He was grateful to find something that was simple in nature yet had the profound effect of raising the quality of a person's life. He feels fortunate that for 23 years he was able to learn directly from Sydney Banks. In 2008 Dicken received a Certificate of Competency from Mr. Banks authorizing him to teach the Three Principles.Dicken co-founded and was the director of a center in Vermont that was the first center in the Northeast to teach the Three Principles. He served as one of the original nation-wide Core Three Principles Faculty and is currently a faculty member for the Three Principles Global Community. In 1996 Dicken joined Pransky and Associates, a Three Principle-based institute in La Conner, Washington. Dicken was instrumental in developing and teaching leadership and staff development programs for universities, hospitals, publishing companies, defense contractors, health departments, banks, and non-profit organizations. He taught company employees what it takes to be resilient and agile in the face of today's business challenges and rapidly changing environments. He mentored CEOs and their leadership teams in raising the bar on their productivity, teamwork, and business success. He now specializes in developing 3 Principle practitioners, as well as leading group seminars on the Principles and their relationship to spiritual/psychological well-being.In January of 2012 Dicken founded Three Principles Mentoring to deepen peoples' understanding of the 3 principles, develop 3P practitioners globally, and offer seminars in countries throughout the world. Dicken wrote a book with Natasha Swerdloff, Coming Home: Uncovering the Foundations of Psychological Well-being which is now available in 10 languages.Dicken also deeply values his work as a director on the board of the Three Principles Glogal Community. This organization was formed to spread the teachings of Sydney Banks around the world. Dicken enjoys public service work and has worked with refugees from South and Central America. He was an integral part of the Tibetan Resettlement Project in Vermont. Dicken has been happily married for 55 years and loves teaching 3P Practitioners and running seminars worldwide on spiritual/psychological well-being. He has two adult children, Nina and Ben, and adores spending time with his four grandchildren. He enjoys photography, hiking, canoeing, traveling, and his dog, Oliver.
Victoria says…“That is so gross!”And it might be. If you don't like eggs.My name is Mr. Twenty Twenty.That's the length of a daydream.And daydreams don't manifest.They dissipate.Remember, don't make the Mind Movie Mistake…Because movies feel good then fade away.That's why I am BIG into…One Sip Simple.Watch the video…Notice how I surrendered into a BLINK…That's what we call an Author moment.It's the blink where the Producer…The spark meets the Author…The one who writes the final One Sip Simple scene.The Author writes the final scene.And the final scene is easy…if you begin with,“Wouldn't it be cool?” And you let it be something - simple and sweet.Anyway… Tat's from Neville Goddard's Four Mighty Ones.More on that later.Reach out if you want more. I have a really cool little chart you'll love…And I'm writing two books and designing a course on The Core Four right now.So let's get gross.Here's what I do.I crack a duck egg into my cup.Not just any egg.A duck egg.Because I found these wonderful local farmers…A local couple who are amazing.They sell me duck eggs at chicken egg prices.And they're huge.So I crack one into my coffee cup…Then I grab this little gadget — a spring whisk.Four bucks at Kohls's.It's like my best friend.Still grody… Because it's got some egg on it.Anyway. Gross.But here's what I've noticed…Order matters.Cup first.Egg goes in.Spring whisk goes up and down.Thirty-nine seconds.Not less. Not more.Much less, and it's egg-drop soup coffee. Gross.Much more, it gets frothy and never settles. Gross.But at the exact right amount of time?I can feel it.Right then.Ahhh.That release.Then I add the hot water.Shake like hell.And what comes out is glorious.That's why I'm sharing this today.Because manifesting is the same.Same ingredients.Wrong order = gross.Right order = glory.And just like using the spring whisk…Some people stop too soon.Some people go way too long.Both get gross results.Neville gave formulas for a reason.We keep exploring them.Neurology.Biology.Nature.The sacred order shows up everywhere.And here's the deal…Most people won't even bother cracking a duck egg into coffee.Much less test the order.And I'm fine with that.This is just something I enjoy.In the “real” world?I imagined being the Kung Fu King.And suddenly I lost all interest in carbohydrates.And I'm not blaming the diet.I'm not blaming the eggs.What I noticed is this:Two years ago I was functionally crippled.Walking stick.Painkillers.Two hip replacements looming in my future.Now?I do Kung Fu - Wu Shu on the staircases I used to avoid.That tells me something.Not diet.Not time.Not technique.I changed.In the twinkle of an eye.You've got a choice to make today…You can make stuff up on your own.Crack an egg in coffee, slam it back.Gross!Or you can follow Sacred Order.Whisk it just right.Enjoy the richness and gobble up the glory.Same with manifesting.Stop too soon? Soup. It never feels real.Go too long? Froth. Because daydreams dissipate.That's the Mind Movie Mistake. Fix that with the first 2 videos at HowToFeelitReal.comAnd if you're ready for some real fun…Go to ManifestingMasteryCourse.com the 90-day adventure.At least grab the free videos at HowToFeelItReal.com.So you don't waste years making up your own recipe…and wondering why it's gross.That's my gift to you today.I'm Mr. Twenty Twenty.You've been enjoying the Power of Imagination Podcast.Where we explore one thing, and one thing only…The wonder-working power of the human imagination.And it all begins with that little Producer moment.“Wouldn't it be cool…”Blink.Producer meets Author.Possibility becomes Proof.And I already feel your comments,your emails, your thank-yous.See ya.
Back in 1990, a Silicon Valley entrepreneur called Jim Fruchterman chose purpose over profit. In his new book, Technology for Good, Fruchterman explains how nonprofit leaders like him are using software and data to solve our most pressing social problems. Thirty five years ago, when his investors vetoed a reading machine for the blind because the market was only $1 million annually, Fruchterman walked away from his $25 million-funded AI company to start his first nonprofit. Today, he's still on the front line of the battle to show that technology's greatest potential lies not in making billionaires richer, but in serving the 90% of humanity that big tech conveniently ignores.1. When profit and purpose clash, profit usually wins Fruchterman argues that when companies face a choice between social good and making money, they “pretty much always pick making more.” His own experience—investors vetoing a reading machine for the blind despite having the technology ready—exemplifies this. Even OpenAI, which started with a nonprofit mission, ultimately flipped to prioritize profit when Sam Altman was briefly fired then reinstated.2. The nonprofit sector is 15 years behind in technology adoption While companies like Uber and banks have essentially become software companies, most nonprofits are still operating with outdated technology. This creates what Fruchterman calls a “target-rich environment” for improvement—nonprofits don't need cutting-edge AI to transform their operations, just the basic data and software tools that for-profit businesses mastered years ago.3. Effective altruism has gone “out of control” Some philanthropists focus so narrowly on measurable impact that they dismiss causes like women's rights or education as “immoral” investments compared to deworming programs. Fruchterman advocates for diversity in philanthropic approaches, arguing that the complexity of global problems requires varied solutions, not just those with the cleanest metrics.4. U.S. foreign aid primarily benefits Americans Contrary to isolationist arguments, 80% of U.S. foreign aid money goes to American staff and American products. Cutting aid doesn't help American farmers—it just leaves their grain piling up in silos. Fruchterman sees nonprofit work as “market development capital for the capitalist system,” turning aid recipients into future customers.5. Mental health represents AI's most promising social application Within five years, Fruchterman believes AI could revolutionize mental health support—not because the technology is revolutionary, but because “we'll never have enough people to help solve our mental health issues.” While big tech's algorithms have exacerbated mental health problems for profit, the same tools could be redesigned to provide accessible support at scale.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Next time you are in Broadus, Montana, you may notice some new artwork as you drive past the Broadus Corner Store...where two young ladies from Kirby, Montana have spent the past few months creating a giant mural that celebrates some of the history of Powder River County.The creator is Miah Chalfont, a Northern Cheyenne artist who told KGHL that her mural honors the history of homesteading and the enduring presence of indigenous peoples in Powder River Country. The 15-foot by 60-foot mural named “PA'EO'HE'E (Powder River), The Good Hunting Grounds”, depicts a faded parchment page from the 1920 US Census forPowder River County, overlaid by a herd of 13 colorful bison, with the images of two of the most famous Cheyenne Chiefs, Dull Knife and Little Wolf.KGHL's Taylor Brown interviewed artist Miah Chalfont, and her assistant Shawnee Real Bird, about the project. On Monday September 22nd a huge crowd gathered in downtown Broadus to celebrate the completion of the project made possible by the “Building a Better Broadus” pilot Community Tourism Grant from the Montana Department Commerce Office of Tourism. Local supporters include the Broadus Corner Store, Yellowstone Bank, the School Community Development Council, and the Kingsley History Project.--------------------------------------------The following additional details were provided by Clara Caufield, Northern Cheyenne Columnist:A journey of healing begins. On Monday, September 22, a historic event occurred at Broadus, MT, where 150 people representing Powder River County and the Northern Cheyenne joined to celebrate the unveiling of a mural at the Broadus Corner Store. The mural commemorates the Northern Cheyenne, and was created by Northern Cheyenne artist Miah Chalfont Realbird at the request of the Kingsley History Project.A small pioneer town named Kingsley once existed near what is now Broadus, where many conflicts occurred between the Cheyenne, Sioux and U.S. Calvary. The Kingsley History Project has the mission of making that a historic site and wishes to involve the Northern Cheyenne and Sioux peoples in that effort. Thirty-six Northern Cheyenne tribal elders, including traditional Chief Leon Seminole and Tribal President Gene Small attended and even provided rides for some elders to get to the event.Speakers included: Shawnee Realbird, a pilot (first Indian woman in Montana to do that); photojournalist; and poet; Miah Chalfant Real Bird (Artist); Leo Seminole (Prayer); Henry Real Bird (Former Poet Laureate of Montana); Jade Sooktis,Northern Cheyenne (Montana State Rep. District 41); Tribal President Gene Small and warrior society headsman; Kingsley History Project: John Amsden; Mina Seminole (the Reynolds Battle); a Broadus County Commissioner; and Clara Caufield, Chair, Northern Cheyenne Elderly Commission. All the speakers addressed the need for healing and forgiveness between the two diverse communities of Broadus and Northern Cheyenne. They all have historical roots and ties to that area, it being the site of many engagements between the military, Northern Cheyenne and Sioux, especially the Reynolds Battle, 1976, a great precursor and influence upon the Battle of the Little Big Horn. Perhaps, not all people in each community will agree, but the leaders have decided that 150 years is long enough to hold a grudge. As one speaker reminded, our forebearers were human beings, caught in the grip of historical forces beyond their control, both sides trying to do what was right for them at the time.Clara Caufield can be reached at acheyennereview@gmail.com.-------------------------------------------------(Crowdscene photo credit: Dani DrainePhotography)(Nightpainting scene photo credit: Shawnee RealBird)
Saturday morning vibes and the podcast table is BACK, baby. The studio feels right again.We kick things off with a reggae report: John Brown's Body + Giant Walking Robots = one of the best shows we've seen in ages. The openers were solid for a young band, but when the headliners hit the stage? Thirty years of experience slapped you right in the face. So rootsy, so groovy, and one of the best bass players Tony has ever heard. Meanwhile, the weed was next-level nuclear. Mike and Tony were absolutely barbecued. About 40% of the patio was passing joints around like candy, and only one person had a cigarette. Times have changed.Of course, guns came up again—cue the internet comment section meltdown. But the real bombshell? Tony's new album finally has a release date: November 7th. After three cover/name changes, Huckleberry Surprise is locked in stone. He explains what it's like recording brand-new songs versus ones you've played for years. Possible live release party? Maybe solo acoustic with some guest artists. Stay tuned.Tony also resurrected his “doomed” Facebook page after nearly a year of hacker hell, thanks to one random phone prompt that actually worked. Miracles exist.We round things out with:Tony's traumatic paper route story (toxin exposure is real, people).A horrifying tale of an entire family wiped out by… potatoes?!And astronauts, who apparently live inside a time warp.It's a weird one, folks. Pour some coffee, spark one if that's your lane, and buckle up.Cheers!m&t

Thirty minutes north of Kansas City is Excelsior Springs, Missouri. This town was formed around natural springs that attracted Native American populations for centuries. Europeans eventually discovered them, settled here and marketed the waters for what they believed were their curative effects. The Elms Hotel was one of several lodgings offered in the city. The location burned down twice before this third version that stands today was built. There have been deaths here and that has led to hauntings. Join us for the history and hauntings of The Elms Hotel! The Moment in Oddity features The Tombstone House. Our location was suggested by Jared Spangler.

Most recruitment firms stall at $1M revenue. Greg Fischer broke through by building a high-retention offshore team, embedding himself inside client organizations with RPO, and using LinkedIn commenting as a smarter BD strategy. As Co-Owner of AMI Network, Greg scaled from $1M to $4.2M revenue and $1.4M profit sustaining 30–40% margins. His model: hire offshore staff directly, integrate them as equals, and use a 2:1 sourcer-to-recruiter ratio to free recruiters to bill more. Alongside that, he mastered RPO pricing, transforming a $30K placement into a $1.5M account. Today, as founder of Well Oiled Machine, Greg helps other firms replicate this approach. In this episode, he shares how to structure offshore teams for 85%+ retention, qualify RPO opportunities, and win clients through LinkedIn commenting. Episode Outline and Highlights 6:42 From solo founder's first hire to 40-person team. 7:40 Breaking the $1M ceiling with offshore hiring after failed BPOs. 12:37 Why sourcing was the first offshore function and how it lifted billings. 23:18 Landing a $50K/month RPO by reframing a client's hiring challenge. 28:07 How that grew into an $80K/month RPO account with 30–40% margins. 30:45 When to pitch RPO: the minimum job volume that makes it viable. 33:47 The “open + close” fee model that stabilized cash flow. 36:23 How a 2:1 sourcer-to-recruiter ratio frees recruiters to bill more. 39:08 Why most agencies fail with offshore—and how to do it right. 47:19 Choosing the right country: Mexico vs Philippines vs South Africa. 54:51 Greg's daily LinkedIn commenting routine that built an inbound pipeline. Key Takeaways Offshore Done Right Fuels Scale Greg's agency was stuck at $1M for four years. BPOs failed, freelancers flaked. The breakthrough came when he hired offshore staff directly, trained them thoroughly, and treated them as equals. Within three years, AMI scaled to $4M+ revenue with 30–40% profit margins and 85% retention. Offshore wasn't a cheap fix; it was the lever that freed recruiters to focus on revenue-driving work. The RPO Question That Unlocks Recurring Revenue A referral asked for an internal recruiter. Greg's partner asked: “Why now?” The answer—50 hires in six months—turned a $30K placement into a $50K/month retainer that ran three years, worth $1.5M. His rule: RPO only works with 5–10 requisitions/month and $15K+ revenue. Anything less is contingent search. Over time, he moved to an “open fee + closed fee” model that kept revenue flowing and profit margins at 30–40%. LinkedIn Strategic Commenting Works Greg built AMI Network through cold outbound. For Well Oiled Machine, he went another route: commenting daily on posts from 60 recruitment thought leaders. Thirty minutes before posting, thirty minutes after. The results? Comments hitting 20,000+ impressions—often outperforming original posts. On LinkedIn, comments are content, and for agency owners this is a repeatable, low-cost BD strategy that beats cold calling. Greg Fischer Bio and Contact Info Greg is the former Co-Owner of AMI Network, a healthcare recruitment agency that did $1.4M in Profit on just $4.2M in revenue. His secret? 18 of his 40 team members were Offshore high-performing employees, with annual retention over 85%. Now his firm, Well Oiled Machine recruits Offshore & Nearshore staff for Recruitment Firms & Staffing Agencies.

HACK THE PLANET!Thirty years ago, that was the catchphrase for a high-energy youth culture movie focusing on a diverse crew of good-looking, well-dressed, "teenage" hackers in New York City. All these kids wanna do via modems and computers is to have fun....until they discover a criminal conspiracy with plans to use a computer virus which eventually result in an ecological disaster. Directed by Iain Softely (Backbeat, K-Pax, The Skeleton Key), this techno-fueled romp eventually became a cult classic powered by its danceable soundtrack (Massive Attack, Prodigy, Orbital) and its cast of up-and-comers including Jonny Lee Miller, Angelina Jolie, Jesse Bradford, Laurence Mason, and Matthew Lillard. So let's rewind back to a specific time AND place....when the only options available for enterprising youth....were to Boot Up or Shut Up!Host: Geoff GershonEdited By Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a textSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
Ed Werder's authoritative voice on all things Dallas Cowboys brings three decades of perspective to our deep dive into the franchise's most pressing issues. The veteran reporter, who began covering America's Team in 1989, doesn't mince words about the controversial Micah Parsons trade: "Almost nothing the Cowboys can do can justify trading Micah Parsons." Werder compares this move to the historic Herschel Walker deal but notes a crucial difference—Parsons is entering his prime at 26, while Walker was further along in his career.The conversation shifts to a fascinating exploration of Jerry Jones' true motivations. Does the owner define success as Super Bowl victories or simply keeping the Cowboys at the center of the NFL conversation? Warder suggests the latter might be true, noting that while Jones claims he'd "write any check" for another championship, he refuses to make the one sacrifice that might matter most—relinquishing his general manager role. "He'll never do that," Warder states definitively.We dive into the Netflix docuseries "America's Team," where Werder features prominently, sharing firsthand accounts of the dynasty years. He reveals the inside story of how he broke the news of Jimmy Johnson's firing after Jones personally told him, "I'm going to fire that MF-er." Thirty years later, the Jones-Johnson relationship remains fractured, with neither man having fully moved past their bitter split. Werder also provides sobering insights into Troy Aikman's playing career, revealing the quarterback suffered so many concussions he sometimes couldn't remember playing entire games—a stark reminder of how NFL player safety has evolved.For Cowboys fans wondering what to expect this season, Werder offers a measured assessment of the team's prospects without Parsons, projecting around nine wins given their challenging schedule. His encyclopedic knowledge of the franchise brings historical context to current challenges, delivered with the candor and insight that has made him a trusted voice in sports journalism for decades.The Try That in a Small Town Podcast is powered by e|spaces!

Thirty years ago, on Sept. 23, 1995, President Gordon B. Hinckley, then the President and Prophet of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, stood at the pulpit in the Salt Lake Tabernacle and gave a proclamation to the world on the sacred importance of the family. Over the next three decades, this powerful document, titled “The Family: A Proclamation to the World,” has guided members of the Church, and others, in strengthening home and family by adhering to its prophetic principles in an increasingly changing world. On this episode of the Church News podcast, Church News reporter Mary Richards continues the discussion of “The Family Proclamation” and the family itself. She is joined by co-directors of Brigham Young University’s American Families of Faith Project, Loren Marks and David Dollahite, both of whom are professors of family life at Brigham Young University. They highlight their 25-year interfaith research on religiously active families and how resilience is built through faith practices. The Church News Podcast is a weekly podcast that invites listeners to make a journey of connection with members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints across the globe. Hosts Jon Ryan Jensen, editor of the Church News, and Church News reporter Mary Richards share unique views of the stories, events, and people who form this international faith. With each episode, listeners are asked to embark on a journey to learn from one another and ponder, “What do I know now?” because of the experience. Produced by KellieAnn Halvorsen.
