Yes, there are black bears in Door County, but we don't yet know where the one that washed ashore in Egg Harbor came from. Myles Dannhausen Jr. talks to Debra Fitzgerald about that bear, but first they dig into the news that the U.S. Navy has cancelled contracts for four Constellation-class frigates being built by Fincantieri Marinette Marine with assistance from its Sturgeon Bay yard. What does it mean for local workers when a multi-billion dollar contract ends?

Not anymore.In this episode of The Car Wash Growth Playbook, I break down why modern SEO isn't the magic lever operators think it is, how Google has changed, and why the real growth engine for your wash has nothing to do with keywords, backlinks, or blog posts.Instead, we dig into the actual drivers of car wash revenue in 2025:✅ How customers really choose a car wash✅ Why proximity, reviews, and your Google Business Profile beat SEO every time✅ The massive advantage big chains have (and why you shouldn't try to outspend them)✅ Why a simple, clear StoryBrand website outperforms “SEO-optimized” sites✅ And most importantly…Why your text club is the most powerful growth tool you ownIf you want predictable revenue, stronger retention, and more members — this episode is for you.Want to grow your car wash?

Whitney shares her path from early house hacking to building a diverse portfolio across asset classes and layers of the capital stack. She explains why express car washes (not gas-station automatics or high-labor full-service models) can be a high-margin, subscription-friendly business—when you buy right, operate at scale, and choose the right corner. We dig into seasonality, water-use rules, equipment choices, and competition, plus how her team centralized third-party management across 30 locations in ~15 communities to gain purchasing power and in-house tech talent. Whitney also lays out how passive investors can evaluate these deals, target a healthy mix of subscription vs. single-pay customers, and balance cash flow today with equity plays when market cycles turn. Key Takeaways Express car wash ≠ automated gas-station bay. It's a long, smart tunnel with minimal staff and strong unit economics. Subscriptions smooth revenue. Targets around 75–80% recurring, while keeping single-pay volume for new-customer flow. Location is everything. Right submarket, right side of the road, and strong daily traffic (convenience wins). Scale matters. Centralized ops, in-house techs, and bulk contracts can lift margins beyond mom-and-pop levels. Risk & fit for LPs. Understand seasonality, local water policy, equipment vintage, and whether you're taking development risk. Portfolio strategy. Diversify across asset classes and up/down the capital stack to ride different market cycles.   - Get Interviewed on the Show! - ================================== Are you a real estate investor with some 'tales from the trenches' you'd like to share with our audience?

Look around at society today and it's easy to see the corruption of sin. Each day it feels like the world is going further and further off the rails. Violence is rising, truth is ignored, and faith seems like a relic. But what if I told you this was nothing new? When you see faithlessness and violence rising and believers experiencing mockery and increasing persecution, know that none of this is surprising to God. In Genesis 7 we continue the account of Noah and the flood. God promised a flood in judgment—and now it's raining. This isn't just ancient history. It's a wake-up call that sin and disobedience rightly draw God's wrath, but even amid judgement God shows grace.  The Rev. Dan Eddy, pastor of Messiah Lutheran Church in Beloit, WI, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Genesis 7.  Genesis isn't just the start of the Bible; it's the foundation of everything. Creation, sin, judgment, grace, covenant, and promise all take root in this remarkable book. The stories are ancient, but their truths are eternal. In this new series from Thy Strong Word, Pastor Phil Booe and his guests walk verse by verse through Genesis, exploring how God reveals Himself as Creator, Judge, and Redeemer. From the grandeur of the cosmos to the struggles of ordinary families, Genesis introduces us to a God who speaks, acts, and keeps His promises. So, whether you've read it a hundred times or are just now cracking it open for a serious look, this series will help you see Genesis with fresh eyes—and a deeper faith. Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

#SWAMPWATCH – Trump physical. Judge hearing arguments in Menendez brothers resentencing petition. Dead whale washes ashore in Huntington Beach. Why CDC cuts are being called ‘the greatest gift to tobacco industry in the last half-century'.

Okay, this was an important one on The Patrick Madrid Show. Molly from Tampa called in with an admission: she secretly baptized her niece and nephew because their parents weren’t raising them Catholic. Now she’s wondering: Does she need to go to confession? Let’s unpack it. Right Intentions, Wrong Move Patrick immediately reassured Molly that her heart was in the right place. She wanted her niece and nephew to receive the grace of baptism, which is huge. After all, baptism: -Washes away original sin -Makes us part of Christ’s Church -Gives us rights to the other sacraments But, and it’s a big BUT: She shouldn’t have done it. Why Not? -It went against the parents’ wishes. Parents have the God-given right to raise their kids in the faith (or sadly, not). -It put the kids in a tricky spot. They’re now baptized Catholics but won’t be raised in the Church, won’t receive the sacraments, and won’t have any record of their baptism. -Future complications. If they later want to become Catholic or even marry a Catholic, their missing baptismal record will cause issues. What’s Next? Damage Control. So, what should Molly do now? Patrick laid out a game plan: Step 1: Go to Confession. She should bring this to a priest: not because she was being malicious, but because it wasn't her duty. Jesus knows her heart, and confession will bring peace. Step 2: Talk to a Priest About Documentation. She needs to speak with her parish priest and explain exactly how she performed the baptism. If it was valid (water + the correct words), the priest might record it in the Church so there’s a record if the kids ever need it. When Is a Secret Baptism Okay? Patrick did say there’s one exception: If these kids were in immediate danger of death, she would have been totally right to baptize them, no questions asked. In extreme situations (think: war zones, life-threatening illness), baptism is an emergency action. But in ordinary circumstances? It’s not our call. Final Thoughts: Trust in God’s Timing If you’re ever tempted to do a secret sacrament… don’t. (Unless it’s life or death.) Instead, pray for the kids, be a strong Catholic witness, and trust that God’s got this.
