Ripley's Believe It Or Not - 1 Minute Episodes xx-xx-xx (336) Unusual Coincidence

Staging is a proven way to attract buyers, but it isn't one-size-fits-all. Let's look at when it pays off and when it might not. One of the most common questions I hear from homeowners is, “Should I stage my home before putting it on the market?” The honest answer? It depends. In some cases, staging can make a significant difference. In others, thoughtful preparation and presentation can go a long way on their own. The key is knowing when staging is worth the investment and how to do it smartly without overspending. Over the years, I've worked with all types of sellers. I've seen homes linger on the market because they felt dark, cluttered, or simply didn't connect with buyers. I've also seen homes that sold within days with no costly staging required because the seller took a few strategic, high-impact steps. At the end of the day, staging isn't about perfection; it's about helping buyers picture their own life in the space. That connection is what creates momentum and ultimately offers. When staging makes the most sense. There are a few situations where staging can make a major difference: • Vacant homes: Empty rooms can appear smaller and colder, making it hard for buyers to visualize the layout and scale.• Unusual layouts: If your home has a unique floor plan, staging can help show how each space functions.• Competitive markets: In areas where buyers have options, staging can help your home stand out. That said, full-scale professional staging isn't always necessary. Sometimes, light staging or thoughtful decor updates are enough, especially if your home is already well-maintained and in a hot market. “Staging is a tool, not a requirement. The key is knowing when it actually adds value.” Budget-friendly staging alternatives. Full staging packages can be pricey, but you don't need to go all-in to make your home shine. Here are a few practical, cost-effective steps that often deliver a strong return: • Declutter: Remove excess furniture and personal items to make rooms feel bigger and more neutral.• Depersonalize: Take down family photos and niche decor so buyers can focus on the home, not the current owner.• Add light: Swap dim bulbs for brighter ones, open curtains, and use mirrors to reflect natural light.• Fresh touches: Add inexpensive updates like a bowl of fresh fruit in the kitchen, new towels in the bathroom, or crisp bedding in the primary bedroom. If you're staging on a budget, focus on high-impact areas like the living room, kitchen, and main bedroom; those are the spaces buyers pay the most attention to. When staging may not be necessary. In some situations, staging won't dramatically affect your sale: • Low inventory markets: If demand is high and homes are selling quickly, staging may not move the needle.• Tight budget: If you're already pricing aggressively or investing in repairs, staging might not be the best use of resources.• Strong condition: If your home already shows well and photographs beautifully, a deep clean and light touch may be enough.• Staging is a tool, not a requirement. It works best when it's part of a thoughtful, strategic approach tailored to your home and your market So, should you stage your home before selling? If you want to sell quickly and for top dollar, some level of staging usually helps. But it doesn't have to be expensive or over-the-top. The right approach depends on your home, your timeline, and your market conditions. Thinking of selling and not sure where to start? Feel free to call or email me. I'd be happy to walk through your home, offer honest recommendations, and help you decide whether staging would add value in your case.

The purpose behind this fast moving and moderately funny show is to spotlight the way that the simple and involuntary act of being born causes us to act and think differently. Ray Miller-Still is a Millennial. He is also the editor of a major Northwest Newspaper. This causes him to be fussy about facts. Jason Falls produces this podcast but like any good wizard, wears many hats. Someday we'll get him to tell us about it. He belongs to Gen-X. Dorothy Wilhelm (she ducks her head modestly) is the originator of this podcast and belongs to the Silent Generation. The usual response is "Huh, you've never been silent a day in your life." But the Silent Generation followed the rules, didn't protest so that at age 92, she is still wondering what she'll do when she grows up. Good thing there's plenty of time. Unusual facts about Generation Gap - it's been on the air almost ten years, so Ray was very young when we started, but most unusual it has the distinction of being taught as a college Course at Green River Community college near Seattle. The class is still available. Let me know if you're interested. That class was called Communication between the Generations and one senior student revealed that the reason she was taking the class was that she couldn't get her grandson to answer the phone or return her calls. We went through two days of conversation techniques, as the class was ending, her phone rang. It was her grandson she said with tears in her eyes. So the generation gap can be bridged. We certainly encourage our audience to let us know if there are questions you'd like us to tackle. About today's show - we're talking about Trick or Treat and Halloween of all things. A big difference was that Dorothy's generation NEVER bought costumes and looked down on people who did. Trick or Treating was very rare up until the mid 50s. It seems as if young people now vie for the most elaborate costume. At that point Dorothy tells the story of how her daughter, a baby boomer, created an incredible horse costume for Trick or Treating . More amazing, she was able to convince her baby boomer brother that he should go along as the rear end of the horse. The valuable lesson we learned is that people do not give treats to the rear end of a horse. She came home with a basket full of treats. She did not share. So that's the show, we hope you'll drop in any time. bring your questions, college songs, favorite recipes , and remember as the generations change, favorite foods change too. The Food Business News says The "generation gap" in favorite foods reflects different generational values, with Baby Boomers favoring classic, savory comfort foods like steak and ham, Generation X bridging the gap with familiar yet adventurous options like pizza and meatloaf, and Millennials embracing globally inspired, customized, and fresh dishes such as sushi and burritos. Younger generations like Gen Z and Alpha show a growing interest in plant-based, spicy, and global flavors, with adventurous tastes influencing kids' menus.

Lithium-ion battery devices are just about everywhere in our homes, from smartphones to cordless power tools. While the devices are convenient, it's important to know safety tips to prevent lithium-ion batteries from overheating and starting a fire. What should I look for when buying rechargeable items? Look for a safety certification from a nationally recognized testing laboratory like UL (Underwriters Laboratories) or ETL (Intertek). These certifications show the lithium-ion battery inside the product meets minimum U.S. safety standards for electrical and fire safety. When are lithium-ion batteries most at risk of catching fire? Charging is the riskiest time for lithium-ion batteries. To stay safe, always use the charger that came with the device or one that's approved by the manufacturer. Using an incompatible charger can lead to overheating, which increases the risk of fire. What are the warning signs that a charging battery might be unsafe? Watch for these common signs of battery failure: Unusual heat. A bulging or swollen battery. A strange, sweet, or metallic smell. If you notice any of these, stop using the device right away and unplug it from the charger. Where is the best place to store lithium-ion battery-powered devices? Store devices in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid keeping battery-powered items in cars, garages, or outdoor sheds, especially during very hot or cold weather. What's the safest way to dispose of lithium-ion batteries? Never put lithium-ion batteries in the regular trash or recycling bin. Damaged or improperly discarded batteries can ignite and cause fires in garbage trucks and landfills. Instead, take them to a certified battery recycling center. Find a location near you at Call2Recycle.org. Can I safely charge an e-bike and scooter indoors? No. The safest place to charge e-bikes and scooters is on a hard surface outdoors out of direct sunlight in a dry place. How do I safely charge devices with lithium-ion batteries? While no method is completely risk-free, you can reduce the fire risk by: Charging on a hard, non-flammable surface. Keeping devices away from flammable materials (such as beds, rugs, and couches). Monitoring the device. Unplugging after charging. How do I know if my device has a lithium-ion battery? Many everyday rechargeable devices use lithium-ion batteries, including: Smartphones, tablets, and smartwatches. Laptops. Power tools. E-bikes, e-scooters, and electric vehicles (EVs). Electric toothbrushes. Check the product manual or labeling for battery information.

Taylor Swift's twelfth album has sparked endless speculation about who each song is "really about," but that might be the wrong question entirely. The Life of a Showgirl isn't biography, it's polyphonic auto-fiction, where Swift writes from multiple character perspectives while blurring the lines between autobiography and theatrical performance. The album's "showgirl sound" traces from Shakespearean tragedy (Ophelia's drowning rewritten as salvation) through Golden Age Hollywood orchestration to contemporary pop production with Max Martin and Shellback. Unusual musical choices like the jarring five-measure phrase in "Fate of Ophelia" reinforce the album's central theme: the tension between public performance and private reality. By treating the album as a theatrical show rather than a celebrity tell-all, listeners can finally hear what Swift is actually saying… or can they?

Sponsored By ClickFunnels Live - Las Vegas Date: October 22nd I will be speaking and teaching this material live on stage with exclusive bonuses for attendees. Virtual seats available. Join me In this episode, Sean breaks down the single most important element of your marketing: the hook. Learn why the first seven words you write can literally determine whether your content gets ignored or generates sales. This is the foundation episode of Season 7's 16-episode roadmap to building a growth engine that pays for itself every 30 days. Key Takeaways What Is a Hook? A hook is whatever people see, read, or hear first. It's the opening line of your video, the first words in your headline, your email subject line, or the visual that pops up before you speak. Without a killer hook, nothing else in your marketing matters. The Two Types of Hooks Verbal Hooks: Labels that call out your audience Sharp questions Conditional statements ("If you're struggling with X...") Commands Bold statements Lists Mini stories Provocative statements Nonverbal Hooks: Pattern interrupt visuals Unusual props Surprising camera cuts Distinctive sounds Pro tip: Combine verbal + nonverbal for "multimodal" hooks that hit attention from multiple angles. The 70-20-10 Rule 70% - More of what's already working (your proven winners) 20% - Winner-adjacent content (variations on proven hooks) 10% - Big, crazy, new experiments The Hook Tracker System Create a simple spreadsheet with: Hook name Actual hook copy Outcome/results Link to where you used it Always test at least 2 hooks per campaign - never just pick one and hope. Resources Mentioned Free Tools (Available in Show Notes): Hook Tracker Template - Simple spreadsheet to track what's working AI Hook Generator Prompt - Generates 55+ world-class hooks in under 2 minutes across 11 categories including: Pattern break hooks Open loop hooks Identity ping hooks Status and safety hooks Reward preview hooks Proof hooks Pricing hooks Fast cash/lightning hooks Closing hooks Branding hooks The 30-Day Payback Engine Connection Strong hooks = Better attention = Cheaper clicks = Better show-up rates = Faster upsells The Goal: Make your gross profit in the first 30 days cover your customer acquisition costs, so your growth pays for itself. Hook Examples by Business Model SaaS Companies: "Launch fully configured in 4 hours, or we pay your first month" Course Creators: "One module in 7 days that fixes your most urgent pain—and you keep it forever" Service Providers: "Strategy session booked in 60 seconds + $197 credit if we can't help" Weekly Hook Creation Rhythm Monday: Research - Collect 10-20 outlier hooks from your niche Tuesday: Write 50 hooks total (35 from winners, 10 winner-adjacent, 5 moonshots) Wednesday: Record 10 hook variations per content package Thursday: Edit - Pair hooks with content sections and CTAs (assembly line style) Friday: Ship across platforms and update your hook tracker Weekly: Keep top 10%, kill bottom 10%, repeat Critical Hook Rules ✅ For email subject lines: 7 words or less ✅ For social: You have 0.007 seconds to stop the scroll ✅ Clear beats clever - Every. Single. Time. ✅ Shorter is stronger - If you can cut words and keep impact, do it ✅ Split test everything - Use A/B testing (10% one hook, 10% another, winner gets 80%) Common Hook Mistakes to Avoid Vague hooks - If your audience can't self-identify instantly, it's too broad Fancy words over simple promises - Don't get cute All verbal, no visuals - Make it multimodal when possible Guessing instead of tracking - Log everything Starving the 70% - Stop reinventing weekly; repeat what works 100x more than you think This Week's Homework Write These Hooks (Manually or Using AI Tool): 3 identity hooks ("If you're a [blank]...") 3 question hooks ("What if you could [blank]?") 3 conditional hooks ("When you finally [blank]...") 3 command hooks ("Stop doing X and start...") 3 strong statements ("Here's the truth nobody's telling you...") 3 list/step hooks ("The 5 ways to...") 2 nonverbal ideas (weird prop, unusual sound, visual element) Deploy This Week: Pick your top 5 hooks Read them out loud Tighten each one (cut every unnecessary word) Add to your hook tracker Test at least 5 hooks this week DM Sean your top 3 and tell him which one you think will win What's Next Next Episode: Building Your Content Factory Learn how to take 50 hooks + 5 content sections + 3 CTAs and create 150+ content variations per week without burning out.

On Tuesday, the top U.S. generals will meet at Quantico for an audience with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and President Donald Trump. Hegseth's order for the gathering comes on the heels of the firing of top military officers. It also lands in the middle of Hegseth's attempts to purge the military of DEI initiatives and programs that he sees as not aligned with the military's core mission of “lethality.” President Trump is expected to address the group. His speech comes after his recent order to send the National Guard into “war ravaged” Portland, Oregon, over the objection of local officials. Host Colby Itkowitz speaks with Pentagon reporter Dan Lamothe about how The Post broke the story of the generals' meeting, the logistics of gathering so many senior military officials in one place, and the optics of the president and defense secretary speeches to the top brass.Today's show was produced by Rennie Svirnovskiy with help from Laura Benshoff. It was edited by Ariel Plotnick and mixed by Sean Cater. Subscribe to The Washington Post here.

This week on Gastropod, a feast of fruits! Specifically, feijoa and durian—and, if you haven't heard of either, you're not alone. Unlike the ubiquitous strawberry or banana, durian and feijoa are only popular in a handful of countries and almost unknown in the US, and we wanted to know why—especially because the people who love them really love them. For New Zealanders, like journalist Kate Evans, feijoa is *the* taste of home, even though it's almost forgotten in its original homeland, in Brazil and Uruguay. Meanwhile, the smell of the durian is so intense and distinctive—Julia Child likened it to “dead babies mixed with strawberries and Camembert”—that it's famously banned from public transportation in Singapore. But for durian lovers, like the cancer expert who decoded the fruit's genome, it inspires something close to obsession. Join us this episode for a weird fruit adventure, as we discover why the durian and feijoa inspire such strong feelings, and why they never made it big in the US. Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, Ron Steslow and Greg Brower (Fmr. Assistant Director of the FBI and U.S. Attorney in Nevada) unpack what's real—and what isn't—in the Epstein investigations.     They walk through the unusual non-prosecution agreement for Epstein in Florida, how victims' rights weren't honored, and why additional prosecutions may not have materialized.  Then, they dig into the politics: the House Oversight investigation, whether it's for show, and the discharge petition that could force a vote.  In Politicology+ they discuss how the Epstein scandal intersects with the Speech and Debate clause of the Constitution and whether lawmakers could read the Epstein “list” in congress.  Not yet a Politicology+ member?

HEADLINE: UK Labour Party Faces Crisis as Starmer's Leadership Falters GUEST NAME: Anatol Lieven SUMMARY: Sir Keir Starmer faces "extremely unusual" unpopularity despite Labour's large majority. Potential replacements include Andy Burnham and Lucy Powell. Discontent stems from poor judgment, lack of progressive vision, and resentment over Jeremy Corbyn's removal.
