Excited to present Chef Tim Blankenship whose tasty treats I hope you have had the chance to imbibe. And if you haven't, it can be a little hard to convey the hearty delight of his Japanesey Tex/Mex fusion fresh tapas. Tim can be found chefing at local taproom Provisions and is now offering wine-paired foods at Yorba's tasting room just around the corner! You may also remember his bomb breakfasts from the days of Element or before my time here in Sutter Creek when J&D's Steakhouse was still around. This isn't the first episode to be recorded in two parts (see "Truth about Cats & Dogs of War" with Kevin Conklin who is also mentioned in this chat), but it is the first two-parter recorded in the same day and my very first episode to have music in the background--which is one of my favorite things about being untethered: we can do whatever we want! Tim is an avid sports fan and our podcast was scheduled the same day as the Texas elementary school shooting that happened a little over a month ago. After we finished the first interview, Steve Kerr, a coach of one of his favorite sports teams who was playing in Texas that day, released a statement that inspired Tim to want to hit the record button again. And I'm really glad we did! Part I has the feel of a daytime interview; we discuss how he arrived to the county, what made him want to be a chef, and how he gets creative about working without an industrial kitchen. Part II shifts to a casual evening vibe, where discussion gets a little more philosophical and a LOT more sportsy. I can't help but relish Tim's disdain at how little I know about sportsball(: Accompanied by Timothy's vinyl pick: "The Dead Set"-- Hope you enjoy the talks! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/heather-strobel/support

If you want a succession plan to work, start building it years before you retire. That's the strategy of the team behind Weber Wealth Advisors in Yorba Linda, California. Founder Mark Weber has taken a whole-team approach, in which everyone has the same client and investment information, and everyone shares in the revenue. The strategy helped make Weber Wealth a top 10 firm within Woodbury Financial Services, a group with 1,500-plus offices. In this episode, we talk to Mark's son, Kyle Weber, and fellow advisor Nick John about how the team approach to succession, branding and personalized client service has helped the business grow while supporting the next generation of advisors.

How do we balance worldly awareness with our own personal sanity? This year more than ever, Miss Kelsey Mort finds solace in the mushroom “promise lands” in our little chunk of the Sierras. A county native, she can usually be found sharing her wealth of knowledge with locals and tourists alike at the Yorba tasting room, where she and I have carved a relationship of deep conversations based on curiosity and jest. In this episode, Kelsey shares insight into the magical world of mushroom foraging: “Until I see that first morel of the day, I always worry that I can't see them anymore. It's like magic how they almost come into being like ‘there you are!' and until you see that first one you always worry that maybe you don't have the magic anymore.” We also discuss small town life, leaving things better than you found it, and how the movie Zoolander was way ahead of its time. Kelsey says, “Rewatch it now, Nerds, ‘cause it's going to hit a lot of buttons!” Somewhere in the middle of our conversation, we get a brief cameo from Lucy the Dog and the Yorba meister herself, Ann Kraemer, which is hopefully a foreshadowing that we can get her on the show eventually, too (: And, if I didn't freaking say it enough throughout this episode… mushrooms are aliens. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/heather-strobel/support

In the case of Robert Stupack, an art aficionado who decided to invest in a Norman Rockwell painting in 1999, one of Rockwell’s studio in West Arlington, Vermont, painted after his studio burned in 1943, it was a combination of curiosity, determination, tenacity and his forensic accounting background that led to the answers that enabled him to successfully make a patent application for authenticating all Norman Rockwell paintings since 1942.

Conor Delaney got his securities licenses at age 19 while attending Alvernia University, switched to night classes and began to grow his practice during the day from nothing. In just five years’ time, his partner, Courtnie Nein, had joined him and they ended up building one of the largest practices at their prior firm out of 1,500 advisors. They rose to the top and decided they wanted more. His successful partnership with Courtnie led the team to start Good Life Financial Advisors. This gave them the ability to do more for their current and future clients, while also creating the opportunity to roll out a national platform that is intuitively designed to accommodate successful advisors who share in the same desire - serving their clients, community and family. The service organization to support other financial advisors was formed shortly after, and they began to add the other entities to fill the needs of their advisors. He has since built a firm of independent financial advisors serving more than 15,000 people around the U.S. in more than 30 different states. Since 2012, Good Life has grown from two advisors and $253,000 in assets to more than 135 advisors and almost $3.5 billion in AUM.

GoldenCoin Suisse is a family owned Private Swiss Nonbank. The family has been engaged in business and law for generations, including defending the gold standard and its right in constitution.Incorporated in Switzerland and the United States, the company started its operations with a vision of providing a safer alternative for clients seeking Wealth Preservation without the financial risks, using vaulted and segregated gold bullion coins, with technology that provides clients with instant liquidity through a mobile app connected to a payments card.The only difference between a "Bank" and a "Nonbank" is that Nonbanks do not engage in savings and lending out clients money, and do consequently not have the same high risks as other financial institutions.Banking has suffered a lot in recent years, from insolvency, hardened regulations and a heavy cost structure with many of them closing down. In 2013 it became so bad that Cypriot banks had to seize client deposits in order to stay afloat, and bank deposit guarantees do not cover deposits over specific thresholds.GoldenCoin Suisse provides an efficient alternative with zero risk, using segregated gold bullion and "regular deposits" instead of fiat currency, and without leveraging client assets, through a mobile app "the Bullion Master OSX" that allows clients to convert their physical gold bullion to cash in seconds.Clients benefit from a traditional wealth and privacy preservation solution based on gold bullion, which goes back to the very early days of banking, when gold was currency and leveraging client funds was not permitted.In the US, the company is currently working on offering more liquidity to Gold IRA accounts and a Gold Bullion Health Savings Accounts - an untapped multi-billion dollar market - by offering a combination of vaulted gold bullion coins and the Bullion Master OSX app with its connected payment card.For more information visit:http://www.goldensuisse.com/

Yancey is a longtime Dallas resident, who is uniquely positioned to serve and fight for Texans. A veteran of the financial services industry, Yancey has helped build four successful investment management firms, which in turn, created hundreds of well-paying jobs. He is currently the Chairman and CEO of Attacca International, an independent, privately held mergers and acquisitions boutique firm based in Dallas. Yancey feels Texas is a model for economic and political success, and he would carry that model to Washington. A Reagan Republican, Yancey is fiscally conservative, in favor of limited government, a strong military that embraces a “needs-based military spending metric,” and supportive of strong free trade and economic development.“Given the many challenges that America currently faces, this is the right time for a business leader to serve Texas and the country, rather than a career politician,” Yancey says. “Senator Cornyn has little support from conservatives across Texas. Senator Cornyn has frequently disappointed Texans with his strong alignment with both Mitch McConnell and Trump. He has shown repeatedly that he is a follower and a compromiser on the wrong side of an issue rather than a leader. Conservative Texans deserve better! I ask for your support and your vote.”Yancey currently serves on the board of Emily’s Place in Plano, Texas. Emily’s Place is a home for women and their children to receive long-term, transformational care to break the cycle of domestic violence. He is also a board member of the Blue Sky Foundation, which uses the game of tennis (through the “Boots On The Court” program) to thank U.S. troops and their families for the sacrifices they make on a daily basis. Yancey is a prior co-owner of the WNBA Dallas Wings, having moved the team from Tulsa, Oklahoma to its current home in Arlington, Texas.In addition to his private sector experience, Yancey is a member of Parkway Hills Baptist Church in Plano. Yancey earned his bachelor's degree from the University of Oklahoma and attended executive classes at Harvard University for advanced course studies in mergers and acquisitions. Yancey is married to Sherri Yancey and has two daughters, Alexann and Morgann Yancey.For more information visit:https://voteformark.com/

John M. Poothullil, MD, FRCP, practiced medicine as a pediatrician and allergist for more than 30 years, with 27 of those years in the state of Texas.

He holds certifications from the American Board of Pediatrics, The American Board of Allergy & Immunology, and the Canadian Board of Pediatrics.During his medical practice, John became interested in understanding the causes of and interconnections between hunger, satiation, and weight gain. His interest turned into a passion and a multi-decade personal study and research project that led him to read many medical journal articles, medical textbooks, and other scholarly works in biology, biochemistry, physiology, endocrinology, and cellular metabolic functions.This eventually guided Dr. Poothullil to investigate the theory of insulin resistance as it relates to diabetes. Recognizing that this theory was illogical, he spent several years rethinking the biology behind high blood sugar and developed the fatty acid burn theory as the real cause of diabetes.He continued researching the linkage between diabetes and cancer, and developed additional insights into the causes of childhood and adult cancer and possible treatments involving low-carbohydrate diets to initiate starving of cancer cells by removing their main source of energy – glucose from grains.Dr. Poothullil has published three books since 2015, two of which have won publishing awards in national book competitions.• Eat Chew Live: 4 Revolutionary Ideas to Prevent Diabetes, Lose Weight & Enjoy Food (Over & Above Creative, 2015) – Winner, Beverly Hills Book Awards, Nutrition Category 2016• Diabetes: The REAL Cause & The RIGHT Cure: 8 Steps to Reverse Type 2 Diabetes in 8 Weeks (New Insights Press, 2017) – Finalist, Beverly Hills Books Awards, Diet & Nutrition Category 2017• Surviving Cancer: A New Perspective on Why Cancer Happens & Your Key Strategies for a Healthy Life (New Insights Press, 2017)Dr. Poothullil has written articles on hunger and satiation, weight loss, diabetes, and the senses of taste and smell. His articles have been published in medical journals such as Physiology and Behavior, Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews, Journal of Women’s Health, Journal of Applied Research, Nutrition, and Nutritional Neuroscience. His work has also been quoted in Woman’s Day, Fitness, Redbook and Woman’s World. Dr. Poothullil is an active speaker on diabetes and cancer.

Bradley and Karen discuss the key differences between 501(c)(3) and 501(c)(6) organizations in the USA, and discuss recent refusals by the IRS to grant such statuses to Open Source and Free Software orgs. Show Notes: Segment 0 (00:34) Bradley mentioned the 501(c)(3) vs. 501(c)(6) difference came up on FaiF 0x41. (03:35) Bradley mentioned that in 501(c)(3) status from the IRS is based on receiving some status governed by §170(b)(1)(A) of the tax code. (Most Free Software charities, such as Conservancy, are classifed as non-profit charities under §170(b)(1)(A)(vi).) (05:10) Bradley mentioned this issue had been discussed on FLOSS Foundations' mailing list (05:50) Bradley discussed that at the OSCON 2013 tutorial, Community Foundations 101, most of the 501(c)(6) representatives who spoke argued incorrectly that the differences between 501(c)(3)'s and 501(c)(6)'s were not substantive. (10:50) Karen referenced how the TV show Silicon Valley parodies the irony of for-profit software companies claiming they make the world a better place. (11:58) Bradley mentioned he was inspired by Michael Moore in his work on Free Software. (15:02) Bradley mentioned Karen's talk called Identity Crisis (15:21) Karen mentioned that open source was on the list of items the IRS gave additional scrutiny. (16:51) Bradley mentioned a blog post by Jim Nelson where Yorba's rejection was discussed; Yorba's 501(c)(3) application was previously discussed on was discussed on 0x1C, and covered in many other places. (17:46) Karen wrote a blog post about why she isn't worried for Conservancy's 501(c)(3) status at this time. (18:30) Bradley mentioned that IRS decisions don't make precedent, and if there's a dispute, it would go to USA Tax Court (19:00) Mozilla Foundation's odd hybrid for-profit/non-profit model was audited by the IRS, and Mozilla Foundation settled with the IRS. (20:22) Open Stack Foundation was initially denied 501(c)(6) status, as reported on Mark McLoughlin's blog. (25:10) Bradley promised links to both Yorba's 501(c)(3) denial letter from the IRS and Open Stack Foundation's 501(c)(6) denial letter from the IRS. (The response to the IRS from OpenStack, written by DLA Piper, OpenStack Foundation's law firm, is also available, too. (27:15) Bradley and Karen discussed Board of Directors meetings in FaiF 0x45: I'm Board (31:40) Bradley mentioned the How fresh stays fresh campaign, which includes the Nature's Pause Button television commercials by the American Frozen Food Institute, which is a 501(c)(6) organization. It's FY 2012 Form 990 is the most recent on available. Bradley also mentioned the Beef: It's What's For Dinner advertisting campaign that has existed for decades in the USA, which is sponsored by the National Cattlemen's Beef Association, Inc. which is a 501(c)(6) as well. It's FY 2012 Form 990 is the most recent on available. (35:40) Bradley further mentioned the Pork: the other white meat advertising campaign, which has also existed for decades but is now called the Pork: Be Inspired campaign, seems a bit more dubious in its non-profit existence. It appears to be funded by the National Pork Board Foundation, which is ostensibly a 501(c)(3) but has no assets, revnue nor expenses, and appears to be a front for an org called the America's Pork Producers / Pork Checkoff, which appears to be some quasi-govermental agency related to pork (in other words, it's pork for pork). More research would probably be needed to figure out better what's going on here with regard to non-profit status, but it seems that unlike the Beef ads, which are clearly funded by a 501(c)(6), this campaign is funded by a separate legislation, presumably unrelated to §501(c). There is, BTW, also, a 501(c)(5) called the National Pork Producers Council, which appears to be where the big money is (— not surprisingly — 501(c)(4)'s and 501(c)(5)'s often make 501(c)(6)'s and 501(c)(3)'s look tiny by comparison).

(04:01) Yorba applied for 501(c)(3) status nearly two years ago and the application is still pending in the queue (the same delay queue we discussed in Episode 0x13. (28:30) Adam mentioned Yorba's donation page. (30:13) Segment 2 (41:08) Karen mentioned that Yorba's response to the IRS should be published soon.
