Bryan Barletta of Sounds Profitable is known for being a guy that explains complicated podcasting ad-tech in a helpful, generous way. Ryan Rose of JoneKiri is an up-and-comer in the industry who has already made a mark by helping talent communicate across multiple platforms. Both started in podcasting. Both quit their day-jobs in podcasting mid-pandemic (!) to launch their own businesses. And both are succeeding wildly. In this conversation they discuss with host E.B. Moss everything from how advertisers can go beyond traditional podcast ad exposure and pricing, to the implications of a "cookie-less world" to the better mousetrap of content marketing cross screen*. These are smart young turks who share a lot of wisdom. We discuss: How Bryan went from McDonalds to History Major to a major force in the developer space before landing in podcasting...and starting Sounds Profitable Why this quote from his recent newsletter post sums up Bryan's mission...and value: When buyers have a hard time translating tools, metrics, and services between advertising channels we get friction, and friction prohibits more buyers from choosing podcast advertising as a viable channel. But that friction can be soothed with education. How slowing down to focus on that education in the business can help speed up revenue Why Megaphone, Advertisecast and Podcorn got snapped up... And why HotPod and PodNews are read voraciously... The imperative for diverse podcasters and the effort to support them by, e.g., former Insider Interviews guest, Juleyka Lantigua-Williams Our "surprise mystery guest", Ryan Rose makes his entrance and explains the what (and pronunciation!) of JoneKiri (hint: discipline and passion...) The opportunity for talent to help offer presence across podcasting + + +...all screens! Why a "cookie-less world" is not such a bad thing...especially in the podcasting world. (Guess who answered THAT one?!) Why Bryan thinks Ryan "fits into a category of people that I think are going to be the next and hottest things in the next two years in podcasting" and why Ryan thinks beyond the pre- or mid-roll, and in fact staked his current career on it The world beyond the CPM or CPA Why they think I'm great. (Kind of love that.) There's a lot more. These are smart guys. You'll want to listen. Again. And maybe again. You can find Bryan on Twitter and https://soundsprofitable.com/ And Ryan and JoneKiri are on LinkedIn If you found THESE tips valuable from Bryan and Ryan, I don't mind if you virtually tip ME, and "buy me a coffee"!

We use Clay Christensen's framework of marginal costs vs full costs to talk about what's wrong with the way so many Americans are thinking about the coronavirus:- Bryan shares his day-to-day experience of being in Japan and how much more unified the Japanese response compared to America- The bad logic many people use when they distrust organizations who don't get everything right from the beginning- The problem of too many voices and too much distrust- Why Bryan is cynical about the media and its structural bias toward manipulating emotions to sustain attention- The responsibility we need to take to make good decisions for everyone in our community- Clay Christensen's idea of marginal costs and full costs, and how we tend to put a lot of emphasis on the marginal costs and not enough attention on the full costs- What may have been true about the coronavirus three months ago can be different today, and the full costs need to be taken more seriously now- The importance of seriously asking the question: "What will I do if somebody in my life gets it?" and having a plan for that unlikely scenario because even though it's unlikely, the effects are huge- The reality of how we overestimate the effect of marginal costs and why that leads us to make bad decisions- Why we can think this way even if we don't believe the worst case scenario is going to happen; and why using driving is a good way to compare the current situation to something we do consistently- Why we felt it is important to address these topics as a mission-based company focused on helping people chase their dreams- Why it's important to stick with it, don't get yourself down about the inconveniences and sacrifices, and make sure you come out of this healthyIf you liked this episode, you may also like our interviews with Ben Auerbach and Ron Sarmiento.Recorded July 15, 2020.ReferencesJapan's "3 C's" - Ministry of Health, Labor & WelfareHow Will You Measure Your Life? by Clay Christensen, James Allworth & Karen Dillon - AmazonYou Can't Go Be More if You're Dead - Go Be More BlogCoronavirus is a Local Challenge and Your Actions Matter - Go Be More BlogPlans are Worthless but Planning is Everything - Go Be More BlogHosts:Bryan Green, @sendaibry, Go Be More BlogJon Rankin, @chasejonrankin, Go Be MoreLinks:Go Be More websiteGo Be More YouTube ChannelFeedbackSubscribe on your favorite player:Simplecast

“Care is just a conscious decision that we all have to make.” Bryan Meehan is the CEO of Blue Bottle Coffee - a sustainable, environmentally conscious company that’s transforming coffee experiences across North America and Asia. As well as achieving huge success as an entrepreneur, what impresses me about Bryan is his ability to devote so much time and attention to his wife and children. A true family man, Bryan is proof that you don’t have to sacrifice relationships for work. Instead, you can create extraordinary success in both. I discovered one of the reasons Bryan has created harmonious balance in his life is his commitment to caring. The level of care he shows to everything from his colleagues to the environment is inspiring. But dive into his backstory, and you understand why. Raised in a very poor Irish family, both Bryan’s parents experienced tough childhoods. They wanted more for Bryan, and while they didn’t have money, they did have an endless ability to care. This legacy infuses through everything Bryan does, and his belief in the power of caring is crystal clear in this episode. He has a lot to teach us [and we have a lot to learn]. “You only have one life and I think those who choose to be all family or all work... it’s a shame because you can do both.” Tune into this episode now and discover how caring has the power to change the world. From seemingly insignificant actions [such as bringing a refillable cup when you buy a coffee], to the bigger decisions [such as Bryan’s intentional decision work with Nestle], Bryan’s insights give me hope that caring really does have the ability to help solve a huge spectrum of global problems.

How does immigration impact the environment? There are ideological arguments against open borders both right and left of center, and yes, the economic growth that would likely result from such a liberal policy would increase emissions—at first. But there is an environmental argument FOR allowing more and more people to immigrate to rich countries.   Dr. Bryan Caplan is a Professor of Economics at George Mason University and New York Times Bestselling author. His most recent release is a collaboration with Zach Weinersmith called Open Borders: The Science and Ethics of Immigration. On this episode of Reversing Climate Change, Bryan joins Ross and Paul to discuss the thesis of his new nonfiction graphic novel and explain his view that open borders would ultimately double the productivity of humankind.   Bryan introduces us to the value of his Ideological Turing Test and practice of public betting, discussing why he likes to hold people accountable for their views in objective, quantifiable ways. Listen in for Bryan’s insight around how open borders are likely to impact the climate, the responsibility rich countries have to climate refugees, and the best keyhole solutions to social issues around immigration and the environment.   Nori Podcasts has a Patreon!

Description: Yosemite National Park in all of its wonder-- from Cook's Meadow and Glacier Point to hiking the Vernal and Nevada Falls Trails and beyond-- is stunning. However, it wasn’t simply the awesome views, granite walls and falls that stunned our family, but the sheer amount of people immersing themselves in the Yosemite National Park experience. Danielle, Bryan and the girls reminisce about their trip in early May 2019 and offer tips and recommendations for others wanting to visit and avoid crowds. Our Discussion Includes the Following: Why Bryan feels that planning is important when visiting Yosemite (2:45) How we spent our time in Yosemite-- after hitting the “weather lottery” (5:23) Challenges to planning your trip in Yosemite (6:32) How adjusting your expectations may help you enjoy the crowds and camaraderie in Yosemite Valley (7:19) Arriving in the park and getting our bearings at the Visitor Center (10:00) Court settlement - original names of several iconic lodging are reinstated (13:00) Mirror Lake (14:15) Advantage of visiting in spring - waterfalls (15:09) Unforgettable Vernal-Nevada Falls - strenuous, popular hike that is worth testing the limits of your kids! (15:53) Biking around the Valley to Happy Isles  (25:16) Ansel Adams Gallery Camera Walk (30:48) Yosemite Conservation Heritage Center (Sierra Club) (32:27) Housekeeping Camp Beach (33:06) The Ahwahnee (34:20) Starry Night Skies over Yosemite through Yosemite Hospitality in Cook’s Meadow (36:18) Stops along the way from Yosemite Valley to Wawona starting with El Capitan, including tips for viewing climbers and parking (38:34) Bridalveil Falls, Tunnel View, Glacier Point (39:44) Wawona and the Wawona Hotel (42:14) Tom Bopp’s Yosemite Music at the Wawona Hotel (42:56) Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias (45:11) Tip: Check the date of The Yosemite Half Marathon when choosing dates and planning your trip!

There is 20 minute parking at the Camp Store. Plan around the Yosemite Half Marathon if you wish to participate or avoid it. In cooler months, you may want to pay up for a heated tent at Camp Curry. It gets chilly. Plan ahead! It will likely be crowded as there seems to be no true “shoulder season” in Yosemite. Many of the waterfalls do not flow year-round, so if that is something you would like to see, plan to visit in spring. Bring plenty of water, especially on a hike like Vernal & Nevada Falls in warm weather. Check the park newspaper for special programs in Yosemite. You need a permit for back-country camping in the High Sierras. Don’t touch the large pinecones in Mariposa Grove! They will stain your clothes. Don’t forget your camera for some gorgeous and dramatic natural photos. In Yosemite, whenever you see those information signs, there is a photo opp! When traveling with family, schedule a day of solo photography ahead of time. Use a hotel shower cap to protect your camera from the rain in a pinch. Use what you have on hand, like a wallet or boulder, if a tripod isn’t available to you. Always backup your photos Always check the weather!

TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR NARRATIVE. What stories are you telling? The ones you repeat will end up shaping your life. When you’re building a work culture, storytelling is key.

How can you harness the power of storytelling to create an ideal environment for you and your company? For this Five Minute Friday, I revisited a conversation I had with Bryan Johnson where he shared how he used town hall meetings, stories, and unconventional hiring methods to make his ideal work culture. Bryan Johnson is the founder of Kernel, OS Fund and Braintree. In 2013, he sold Braintree to Paypal for $800 million. Bryan set a high standard for his employees that let them know they had to be at the top of their game at all times. Learn how to build an amazing work culture on Episode 831.

What future literacy is and why it's crucial for understanding the role humanity will play in the decades to come. The steps being taken to comprehend what makes biological systems fail in order to improve their capabilities. How privacy inequality could create more of a disparity between people than economic disparity ever could.

“If I’m going to make a dent in this world, I have only a certain amount of time… So rather than watch that time be wasted away, I’d rather be intentional with it.” Along with his wife Shannon, Bryan Miles is committed to rewriting the workplace mindset. Driven by his manifesto that “the way we work doesn’t work anymore”, Bryan inspires businesses to liberate their employees and transform their culture with remote working. Far from losing control over staff, Bryan argues home-based workers are happier and more productive. With more autonomy over their day, working from home allows people to contribute more to their family life - as well as someone else’s place of work. As a result, they’re more motivated to do their best work for their employer. This is something Bryan has experienced first-hand. With over 600 remote-working employees, Bryan believes working for his company - BELAY Solutions - ruins staff for anyone else! When people experience a culture of trust, autonomy, and freedom, they don’t want to settle for anything less. “When I pray I don’t just beg for wisdom. I beg for the courage to act when I get that wisdom.” One of the reasons Bryan has been able to build such a successful virtual culture for so many people is because he’s a master of organization. Intentional with his time and committed to be the best steward possible in all his roles, Bryan is able to achieve success in both his personal and professional life. I was filled with gratitude after interviewing Bryan. He crushed my belief that big companies need an office and left me with a stack of insights that will help JavaPresse grow. He’s also inspired me to be a better man with some simple, yet smart organizational strategies. I’m certain Bryan will inspire you to leverage the benefits that more order can bring for your life too. “Organization makes me happy. Happiness for me is having things in order.” Some questions I ask: Why is having a virtual culture important to you and how does it affect the happiness of you and your employees? (3:13)How does your day begin? Talk me though your daily routine. (6:10)What part of your day is non-negotiable and sacred? (9:20)How do you make yourself a priority when you have so many priorities on your plate? (12:03)How does gratitude play a part in your day-to-day? (15:10)How often do you reflect? (18:50)How did you cultivate a practice of being intentional with your time? (22:00)Tell me more about your new book - Virtual Culture. (28:08)With your book and your business you’re disrupting a mindset about the way we work. What practices help you keep dreaming? (31:20)How do you stay grounded on a daily basis?

Compound Effect is so amazingly powerful, and ,my guest today, on the Steve Jobs inspired Join Up Dots free podcast interview is a man who uses it daily. He overcame adversity, lost nearly 100 pounds, ran a marathon, dramatically changed his diet and created an approach to help others live a better life, every day. He calls it the Do a Day method and through his book flying off the shelves of Amazon and other good book stores, and his thriving online business he now shows us the steps to doing this. Changing our lives by small, doable steps, leading to overcoming the impossible, instead of tackling huge challenges head on which just wear us out. Now this wasn't a process that was obvious to our guest right from the start, although it is true that although ingrained in the corporate world, he has certainly had a foot in the entrepreneurial motivational camp right from the start Leaving Bowdoin College with an AB in Economics, Chinese and Philosophy, he started work as a Senior Associate Consultant at Liberty Mutual, before going back to school to get an MBA in Business. From then on he tackled many different positions for a multitude of companies leading to holding the Executive Vice President Head of Claims for Hiscox Insurance down in Atlanta. And you can see the ambition clearly as he climbed quickly the corporate ladder. all the time balancing the work ethic with keeping his personal and physical side on an even keel. He has faced challenges in life, such as obesity, depression, work stress, the responsibilities of parenthood, the potential of losing his wife to illness, and more. And he struggled, like anyone else. But as we see on Join Up Dots every-time, through that struggle, he learned the secret to not just overcoming any individual challenge, but creating a life of achievement, happiness and harmony. Do a Day will free you of the burden and judgement of yesterday‘s choices, while relieving you of the pressure of what tomorrow may bring. By teaching you how to identify your true motivation and how to use that to focus on what you have to do today, Do a Day will help you change your life. So is he now 100% entrepreneurial of does he see a combined approach to his workload going forward? And what has been the biggest learning from living the life that he has had so far? Well lets find out as we bring onto the show to start joining up dots with the one and only Mr Bryan Falchuk. Show Highlights During the show we discussed such weighty topics with Bryan Falchuk such as: How he has managed to juggle so many things in his life, to get his business running, even whilst working a fulltime job. Why Bryan never gives answers to someones problems, as he is a great believer that the individual has to work out the answers himself. We discuss why it is so hard for anyone to kick start their lives, as they really have to dig down and understand their own personal self value first. and lastly…. Bryan shares an amusing story about a veggie burger that emphasises that no matter how a life seems from the outside, people still have to deal with the little annoyances.
