"I just wanted to revisit that pesky faster than the speeding bullet play that fritzi was bringing up earlier. And I didn't have the NFL was also going to frown upon flying up near the goalpost to block the kicks or using actually vision in the huddles. Okay. All valid points. Rick taking a shot at you, fritzi. Fritzi wanted to know if they would outlaw somebody on the kicking team if they were kicking a field goal and they were able to run down during the kick and then knock it over the goalpost if it wasn't going to make it. I got a tweet, what about someone climbing on someone's shoulders if the ball is being too far? Can't do that. Faster than a speeding bullet. That's the new play. No. Taking a shot at you. And once again, fritzi graduated second in his class of 600 in high school. How this goes to show that happened. There's a big difference between book smarts and streets. Yeah, I know. You're right. Michael and Fort Wayne, hi Mike, what's on your mind today? Hey, good morning, Dan. Thanks for taking my call. Shout out to penny, my dogs love the bang biscuits. Oh, great. One question. Yeah.

Trash Day (MM #3987)
"The mason minute. With Kevin mason now normally for us, trash day is Mondays. So on Sunday Night we put out the garbage can. They're supposed to pick it up sometime Monday. It used to be 9 ten, 11 o'clock in the morning. Now sometimes two, three, 4 o'clock in the afternoon, or not even on trash day. We have a problem with trash collection here in Nashville. It's one of the companies that we've hired out. We don't have our own trash collection service here in Nashville. We subcontracted. Well, they're having a problem. Of course they're saying it's a labor problem. They don't have enough people to drive, but how many people do you encounter on a trash route? Or you need somebody to drive the truck and they don't even get out of the truck, they just have one of those mechanical arms that grab the trash bin and put it in the back of the truck. I know it's not that bad here. Like last week it was supposed to be picked up on Monday. And I think they finally showed up on Thursday or Friday. I don't remember which day it was. In Fort Wayne, I've got friends who live there and they're sometimes weeks in arrears from their trash collection. From what I understand it may actually be the same company, which is sort of regional sort of not good. They obviously have some problems. We'll see what happens tomorrow with trash collection. But I have a feeling we could be waiting a few days.

Those little white flowers papa. It's just absolutely beautiful. It really is a great amenity. And with the aquatic centers that whole strips. Going to be phenomenal going to say. Yeah and i hope hopefully i like bosse field but i think that's another one that needs needs a lot of work and we could do so much with that at amenity and i love the otters. This created pie. There's just so much just from a history perspective that with bosse field and the is it What is it crawford door building across.

I'd love to build it but but it is but everybody's doing that now. Another communities with brand new stadiums right. Yeah they're building history around it and the community engagement. You know i think a fort wayne. They did a great job of engaging that and even people walk through it on their lunch hour and are connected to it and it's like for whatever reason down there it's like no no here. It is within the wall outside the wall. If we could get that engagement all around that stadium and especially with the park. And i think it would just make it would mandate experience so much more part of a community than just a one off. You go the game. Go watch ladders and you leave. It's just an activated for a one time event for a couple hours. And you know he could. It's the location of a couple five ks year.

"And and i said well. That's great that's wonderful but we're still going to have to raise like three hundred thousand dollars to convert this thing. And i don't know there were able to do that. And and how long is it gonna take. I'm like you know honestly. I don't know it's gonna be a few months so he literally waited from perhaps march until august and turndown cash offers for us to to get the confidence that we can make this happen so we literally fell into an ideal situation by the grace of god any other seller. We would have been sol. But this guy because we did this work with special needs. He wanted to do what he could to help us. He had inherited the building from his dad. He didn't need the money. It wasn't his livelihood and he bent over backwards for us. And it's been awesome very very thankful that we fell into. That was so second time through on top of negotiating the deal and everything had you learned from. The conversion process was the conversion process smoother. Was there anything that kinda came up the second time through that surprise to you i mean there are certainly things we learned there. Were things that we thought we learned but didn't learn. I mean from a design perspective. We learned a lot. So you know the first facility. It was three sheets but the warmer marya wasn't as wide as all three sheets. But we did take this little ten foot section and allow you to that so we sort of built on raised up part of the warehouse so we could look down off the sheets but we just had these like four foot by foot windows one for each sheet and really what we wanted to do was was have you know. A fairly soon was difference between the the ice room in warm so it's wall to wall windows door on each side and then wall to wall windows at you know counter haydn above so you can sit there and there's a little counter so we wanted much more viewable area and not have such separation.

"Did you guys decide. It's time to start pursuing a curling only facility. You know so so greg. Having curled on dedicated ice his whole life you know quickly realized that is was was sub optimal especially for people at his level. So he'd been pushing for awhile of when do you think we could get dedicated ice To some extent. I would imagine you know. He was starting to think about how how much longer he wanted to curl on arena ice. Because it's it's you know for somebody at his level. It would be pretty disappointing but it really wasn't until we started to look at the next olympic cycle. It was in early. Twenty thirteen and looking at the upcoming olympic cycle looking at how our membership had decreased year over year. And the fact that we likely wouldn't get up. We wouldn't get sufficient ice time during the olympics to run enough. Learn to curl to get up above that level and we decided that i personally didn't have an interest in fighting for another four years to keep the club afloat in reno model so we either needed to build a dedicated facility in hopes. They'll come or the club was gonna fade into oblivion and. We weren't willing to do that so early in in i would say looking back. Perhaps march of twenty thirteen. We started to to build a business case in. Start to look at facilities. I think it was during arena at night was during the and The summers feel in in august that we had found a facility. Did an open house for our members to come out and look at it about. We probably spent four or five months looking facilities in in building. The business case you know we started with the idea of will build something from scratch in quickly realized it wasn't economically feasible for us But found after talking to portland in columbus which were then the two warehouse conversion locations that that were that had been completed. We realized that that was a model that we can make. Were you know from a fiscal perspective. Yeah at that arena nationals. I remember one of your curlers. And i mean shoot. It may have been you. It's been eight year so my memory starting to fade but Someone from your club was talking about pursuing the concept that you guys dubbed the ice Can you kind of explain what that was. And what advantages it had for your group short so as we were building the business case You know we. It was a pretty daunting task. Right to to be able to fund all this and so from the outset we sorta resort saddled on a concept of legalized. We're gonna bill we're gonna do. We're gonna get ice such that. It's legal that we can occupy the building and everything else. We're gonna worry about later so we didn't. We tried to set people's expectations that were not going to build the taj mahal. Right out of the gate. But we're going to do it. Takes to get legal. Ice that can legally be used and then build from there in the end we were successful enough with our fundraising and or Some of us stupid enough to put in enough cash of our own To to do much more than that right we. We built a pretty nice club and abandoned. The concept of legalized idea was even going gesture to an ice rink with not much around it where the ice is dedicated is better to grow the club than in arena model. Where you're.

I'm almost adjusted There it's what's great about it is it's it's cheap very inexpensive And you know it's somewhat sheltered so kids can grow up here fairly sheltered compared to many other metropolitan areas which is which is great and in certain industries. It's it's good so in. Lots of lots of industry in fort wayne is is small manufacturers feeding into the automotive industry so i ended up here working in insurance. And there's only really one major life insurance company so After i left there since two thousand four. I've been working virtually but what you know. There's it's Hockey mad town. So there's lots of hockey it. It lacks the diversity of recreational activities. That many cities have and i think that's one of the things that really made it ideal to starting up a curling club especially in the winter. There's really not a lot from a recreational standpoint at least back then you know. The city is has grown significantly in the time. I've been here since the time we started the club. So there's a lot more opportunities you know built a speech fieldhouse parkview field house that volleyball basketball all of those sorts of things in really before we started the club There really wasn't as much of that or at least if there was i was you know wasn't well enough known than i knew about it. Show providing it recreational activity for people during winter when there wasn't a whole lot else available Really worked out well for us. Starting he has also. Have the best ballpark ever been to.

A week was only other innovations. You tried to get the growth going. And how many members did you get kind of out of the gate. Sure so we. We helped right after right after the first meeting in march restarted holding some introductory meetings at the rink just promoting the newspaper getting people to come out and one of the things we did to fund this right to fund. The equipment is is we did look pay us a thousand dollars now and we'll give you a twelve hundred dollar credit with the club right. We needed money up front. Need some people to take a bit of risk so we could out and buy these rocks and everything else so we had a number of people that were willing to step up and take the risk and do that so that helped us fund up the the rocks in the equipment. We needed We had so out of those meetings. Actually we immediately got about eighty six people in fort wayne for people's information. The city of about three hundred thousand people and curling is not well-known. Right the only time people know about curling. The olympics in the american public seems to totally forget about it just disappears from their consciousness at least back in those days and then four years later they'd be. Oh what's this. I've never seen it again right. So you know curling was was not in. We're not coming from the meccas of curling where everybody knows it in things of that nature so we were actually pretty happy to get eighty six people right out of the gate willing to step up and put money down so we held some some rookie leagues some our games.

"In there was no way. I could drive two and a half hours each way with thirteen year old kid on tuesday night so we gave it up for four years until we ended up. Starting club in fort wayne is the i mean. Is the family aspect. Kind of what made you want to stick with it. Just the fact that you guys could all do that together. Absolutely the whole reason we started the club was it was something that my son could play with us in for individuals or that have children with special needs. There's very few sports that you can play with your child where you can enjoy the game to the fullest. If i play basketball with my son. I can't play basketball to to my fullest in but it's actually a team sport where you can assist him when he's doing his shot but when it's my turn to throw i can throw as if i'm playing in any other game so it was. We just found that it was a unique sport for individuals with special needs to play alongside. Their parents sibling her siblings or peers and that sort of ignited the fire. You know so. We gave it up after the two thousand ten olympics. Once again my life idea you know we should try again to get. Something started up here in fort wayne and they just opened up a brand new ice rink three sheet facility and it wasn't even open yet actually. It was constructed but not yet open in. We were able to to start some discussions with them about About but starting curling Curling club within their facility. So were you is it. Just you and your wife at the beginning when the club was getting going or did you have other contacts in the area show we.

"Event is the team that would represent korea at the olympics in. It's the team that would go to the world championships in twenty twenty two so a big tournament especially for a country that has seen a lot of success lately especially on the women's side On the women's side you have kind of three favorites which is keen on young. Kim mingy in kim when she those are your three favorites Kim jong beat kim on she in last year's championship team. Kim is obviously the team that won silver. at the twenty eighteen olympics. They then recaptured the korean championship last year. They argue defending champion. They went seven and six at worlds this year after starting owen four and missed the playoffs on head to head tiebreakers. Thus the korean women will have to go to the world qualification event. Kim on she won in two thousand nineteen and finished third at the twenty nineteen. pacs's but worlds were cancelled that year. She did qualify for world's by going eight. Zero at the world qualification event but obviously covid nineteen had other plans for that team and then finally kim mingy kim. Gee this is the team that That we recently saw at world juniors the team that we recently saw at the two grand slam events that were held in the calgary bubble She last one korean nationals in twenty eighteen she won the pacific asia championships that fall and then went on to win bronze at worlds and she has a twenty sixteen world junior bronze in twenty twenty world silver to her name so at twenty one years old Kim mingy has accomplished a lot. So it'll be really interesting to see if she's able to topple the twenty. Eighteen olympic. silver medalist Kim jong To become team korea. So if. I think that that's definitely a tournament to watch because the team coming out of the women side one should qualify for the olympics in into should be one of the favorites at the olympics. At least a metal all three of those teams really strong. I the olympic qualification event. Though is gonna be brooks also have gb in there. I in japan and japan right.

He's gonna tell us the really personal story of how he got into curling and the journey his club went through going from curling on arena skating ice to one dedicated facility with three sheets to then detonated facility with four sheets all in the span of about a decade. It's pretty crazy ride. And it's something that. I think a lot of clubs around the. Us can probably learn a lot from. Yeah it's kinda great touch base with craig so we both met him back in two thousand thirteen. 'cause his club. I think it was he was he was in. Charge of the event hosted the first arena nationals curling championship and is the podcast. The they weren't allowed back because they got a dedicated ice. Almost right away they graduated.

Your time to kinda surprised me but elena stern from team stern in switzerland has announced that she is retiring from competitive curling. She's a twenty six year old. Skip who had a grand slam title under her belt and she won the twenty twenty swiss title. Unfortunately her team did not get the play at the twin twenty worlds Basically she said she's just ready for the next chapter of her life More importantly she's been a voice for lgbt issues not just in curling but also regarding an upcoming vote in september where swiss citizens will get to vote on.

But we never know what's going on in people's lives or whatever opportunities may come up so we wish her kind of luck with the next stage for sure but I suspect we'll see a shuffle in switzerland kind of like we didn't canada at the end of the the end of next season. Right where we've seen the end of every quad but we'll have to see how things shake out for the other teams. Do you think this'll be a trend. Do you think will start losing players at younger and younger ages in competitive curling.

Dana Perino Talks About Her Book, Everything Will Be Okay
"Data perino back on dose of leadership. Welcome back have you ever had some come back. I have. I've had arse you you you're up there. This is your third visit and eight years old came on very early. I remember i mean you look at what you've built since your i had the idea to start this is it's been amazing and i don't want to thank you. You've been so supportive of the show. You've given me great mentoring advice a few times that i've asked and i've been afraid to ask because i know you're so busy but you've always answered and gave me such great advice and so i appreciate you coming back on the show. I love the book. Everything will be okay. One thing that stood out. I think it was our last conversation a few years ago and i have four four daughters and you said something that resonate with me pass advice along to each of my daughter's along the way my oldest is twenty four twenty one eighteen and sixteen. Wow dad but you said something that i thought was was great and it was some of the fact. I'm paraphrasing you. Got this in the book about when oportunities present themselves. You could be in jacksonville. Florida at your hometown or wherever and a job comes available. 'em for new york or billings montana or someone alaska is going there and you just go take it and i thought that was. I think that's the best advice you could do. Is just take that because those leads to other opportunities right. I'm paraphrasing but That stuck with me and it's in it's in the book. I just think it's great advice. I use fort wayne indiana example. Because you know. I had experience with somebody who had was in. Denver had an opportunity to get promoted. But the job would mean leaving denver and moving to fort wayne indiana and they turned it down and career kind stalled out In front of frustrated and upset about that and always wondered you. Know what if i had taken that chance and if you take any person that you admire i don't care anyone and you ask them. What were the steps that lead you to where you are today. There's always something that happened in their life. That was as real detour something. They didn't plan something that just seemed to come along. And i thought well i guess i'll try that It doesn't mean that you're always going to have to live where that new job is your first of all you might like it And also really with technology today. There's no excuse. But the other thing i would say is that we are in a very competitive job market. And we're going to be like your daughters at that age group is going to be globally competitive and so that means you have to be prepared to take opportunities at now. That doesn't mean you also can't turn things down sure that those those things come on it happened to me too. I write about how i was planning to be in journalism while. I'm jearl as of now but people don't know i started there and then i had this meandering path and i'm back to. Where do we wanted to do all along. But i would not have the job. I have today if i hadn't done all those other things. There would be no reason for me to have this job as co anchor of america's newsroom and on the five and she has to write a book for that somebody my ornery know. Exactly right i think back to approaching five hundred conversations on the show. I can't tell you how many times i've asked a question like did. Did you picture yourself doing this. And they're like absolutely not. I had no idea. But charles krauthammer force late mills loved him so he used to be asked a lot by journalism students. How can i become a syndicated columnist. And he used to say well. I you go to medical school. And his point was that he never body but ended up being a syndicated columnist as a conservative But that's where his path led him after medical school becoming a a p getting his. Md excuse me in psychiatry and then moving on to work in public policy and then of course in journalism.

Yeah that was the brainchild of of capriccio buchanan and they wanted to army the entire organization so it was just important for myself or coach our trainers everyone to kind of understand. I what it is so we do. Three t training every preseason and go through what three are what the you know. Maybe this year. Specific of three t. r. a. b. Make sure the staff really understands it and then when the players come in and we have an individual three t meeting with them. Go with three t means. We go over expectations of how they're going to conduct themselves on and off the court. What the potential consequences would be if they don't wanna do that. And then we make sure you know of course seasonal reinforcing that there's all there's three t everywhere in our facilities of three t signs and logos and it's on our players Locker placards on their. You know hats and t shirts that we get one from time to time the water bottles with three t logos on it got everything we just try to make. Sure it's present in front of mind and then when things come up which you know maybe somebody does something. That's not three t. We need to make sure there's clear consequences for those actions so that other people can see that. We're not just talking about it that we actually want to walk the walk with it And it's led to people no longer being with the organization But you know we have to back up. What we say is important to us and You know it's something that's gonna flow from the top down. Always feel like it's done a really good job you know was something that. Kp chad kind of created from scratch. Just a few years ago. I think everyone in our organization would means knows what we're about and i think even outside of the organization they understand definitely stuff per that is as well known in such a trademark of the pacers organization.

Otherwise maybe it's just craft an email kind of laying out what's happening. What's going on Send out you know what we have a two week report that we do with the pacers where i put together a kind of a comprehensive luck. What happened the last two weeks with the manson. Send it off to the higher ups with the pacers that everybody's you know understanding what's happening but yeah. Communication is is huge. Were big about laying out expectations to the players to the staff to agents so that everybody knows exactly where we stand at any given time. You know it's always better when people go in with a clear idea of what's expected rather than just trying to figure it out on fly and you spend this this awkward inbetween time. Trying to get acclimated but you know we really rely on on truthful and efficient communication to make sure that everyone is on the same page at all times lou and looking at kind of maybe the the gym position is always something. Whether it's a movie moneyball it's always been kind of quoted as having the most difficult part being whether it's everything related to bad news.

That's something that you is the gm on how to handle it in a way that it's kinda showed in the movies or in the g. league. It's something where it's more of a coach's thing or or something like that. How does that work does definitely executives the deal we every year we bring seventeen guys training camp and only only twelve. We're going to make our team. So we got cut at least five guys reds beginning of every season and then over the course of the year. You've gotta make trades you gotta make pickups from team and that's just of the nature of the beast it's unpleasant for everyone involves you know i don't it kinda tears you up a little bit. You know when that cut day is coming at training camp. You feel a little queasy all day. Because you you know you're gonna be kinda slash dreams on some of these guys and some of these guys who will move on catch on the other teams or other leagues around. The world continue their careers. But there's gotta be a couple of guys here and there probably don't play again. This will be the last thing that they kind of experienced in their professional basketball careers. You hate to do it. We try to make it quick Not quite as quick as moneyball made it but trying to get some feedback of why you know. The decision was made what we feel. They can work on and you know. Wish them luck in the future. You kinda you know go from there. But you know you definitely don't want to make it about you as crappy as it is to do it. You know it's a it's a moment in their lives which is going to be really tough.

Thank you for having me Pat and it's a pleasure to be on your show. we were talking before the show. The last time we ran into each other was with the home builders show in Las Vegas, and as you pointed out, the world has changed a lot since then. Things have changed as I said, just a little bit since then but you know what a great show you know. I love when you guys come in and talk to us about our new products and things like that. It's it's. It's an exciting show. I really love to do that show. I'm not in my white coat day. So sorry about that. We explain that you wear a lab coat when you're talking to folks at the builders show yes I do I am the Doctor Watch son if you will of paint. So are you able to to work from home or are you going into the office? What's going on with your work life? Well? I'm actually as you can see, I'm in my office I've been back in my office for two three weeks up to a month or so So we do have some people still in the doing their jobs from home quite effectively, and we have a a lot of number of folks still a coming actually down to the offices. Well. So where's your attended? Where's your office in downtown Cleveland Ohio? Can you tell me? What exactly it is you do for Sharon Williams and. If you've been there a long time and if you worked for other paint. Companies. Well my boss wonders what I do as well but no, that's that's just a joke. So. So when I, again, the Director Product Information Technical Services. So what we do in in my office is a number of things. One we help bring new products to life and you're aware of the new products that we introduced at the ibis So what we do is we help commercialise those products from data pages information from labels that you see on those cans to bringing that product to life in a number of our systems you we create, and we also maintain all of that information over our existing stores. product portfolio. So we also have under under my area. If you will. We also have what's called a product hotline and we have about ten agents that actually take a lot of calls from our stores and all of our field people when they have questions about product or say you would call in your store or something you would call in and need some help on. A. Specific Specification on how to paint this piece him aluminum or whatever it may be We have agents that will actually take care of that as well. How do you train those people? They must have to know a ton of stuff. Well yes. Yeah. Typically you know what we what we talk about is. When you're in the field, you kinda get It get trained really quick in the field. Put it that way you know you're dealing with contractors coming in a lot in there, asking all these questions. So it it's kind of like repetition. So if you've been out in the field ten plus years, you've seen a lot So all of our agents of. Roughly twenty I think it was around twenty two years of service with Sherwin Williams on average. So, we have some agents that are thirty five years and was Sherwin Williams I have thirty three years in with Sherwin. Williams. So you know what's a lot of knowledge that you gain over a period of time working on the phones or in the as well? Did you start in a paint store or as a painter or are you a chemist? What's what's your background? How does one become this person? Well actually. In order to get myself through college a friend of mine I started a paint company little paint company painting houses in the summer, and when we come home from from school and the brakes, we would go to houses and pain inside or outside whatever. And it just so happened one day. There was a career fair at Ball State University where I went school Sherwin Williams was there. You know I was a little bit cocky I said Hey I used your paint and a the manager there said why don't you come and interview I said Okay I will. So long story short I interviewed started as a management training person. And went to commercial store in Fort Wayne Indiana. And from there I worked as the operations manager for a few months and then became a sales rep and from sales rep. I did that greatest job in the company. I love being a sales rep going out talking with contractors you know getting my hands dirty getting closed you know closed dirty you name it a great job. But I wanted to change. So I went into managing a store. And then from a store, went to open up brand new store. And then realize you know i. you know that that's a lot of lifting you know my ankles and the knees hurt. So I said maybe I should use my head in my mouth and then came to Cleveland and worked in our product hotline for a number of years, and then just basically progressed up into the director of product information.
The Bible Project
Reading the New Testament Letters: Q & A
"How to read the New Testament Letters. Let's start with a question from Damian in Minnesota Hey. Tim and John. My name is Damian. Leverett and I live. Live in Saint Paul. Minnesota I'm a classically trained theater actor and performer, and listening to these episodes has made me wonder if it could be a fruitful practice for churches to have people like me. Trained in speaking complex texts in an active embodied way, read the letters in their entirety in live gatherings. What do you think about this idea is? It's stupid. Are there any pitfalls or problems that you'd foresee? I'd love your advice. Thanks for all you do all right. I'll respond first Damian your idea is the opposite of stupid. It's actually brilliant and so important, and yes, you should do it. No questions asked. All Right? That's my first response. was here's John for sure? Yeah, you. We talked about how these letters were originally heard. Read Aloud. Yeah, that's right and that there is something about. Hearing it all in one sitting that helps you Kinda feel the shape of it in a different way. I noticed when I read. I get really stuck like what did that sentence mean? I don't keep moving. But, if you're in a situation, where just being read aloud in listening to an audio version of the Bible, that's really powerful, so so if you have a vision for using your experience in theater. That's awesome. Yes, John and I. Both knew a guy named Jason Nightingale. Who had just ministry nonprofit, he called word sewer ministries, but essentially he memorized all the books of the New Testament. Did he do all of them well? I don't know that for certain, but the sampling that I. Know that I've heard him. Recite before makes me think he's for sure got. From the gospel of Mark to the book of revelation Romans, Hebrews. Fijian's so we back when we were in our twenties, heard him. Yeah back in the nineties. Nineties Nightingale. But Man. This guy traveled all over the US and the world reciting books of the New Testament and then sometimes he would give short little homily. Reflection afterwards, but his main thing was to recite whole books the New Testament in one go for groups of people with such a booming. Yes, wonderful destroy had a uniquely amazing voice yeah. So yes Damien I. It's a wonderful idea. It should be normal I. Think this kind of ministry should be normal in the life of a local church. Yeah, having somebody who's like the memorizer and reciter of books of the New Testament. So guts be Damian. Go forth and memorize and recite his question from Lauren in Indiana Hi John and Tim. This is Lauren and Fort Wayne Indiana I'm listening to your conversation on the New Testament letters with my usual rapt attention, and in episode three is John expressed some frustration that the theology. The New Testament isn't more thoroughly connected and expurgated. It made me wonder. Wonder whether Paul as a Hebrew scripture scholar, who understood that it was as you call it. He Meditation Literature. Do you think it's possible that he crafted his epistles in that same way so that people would need to hear them and read them over and over to really get the depth of meaning just curious. Thanks for all you do God bless. It's great question. I thought that was really insightful. Question. It is true especially Paul the his letters are hard to understand. There are or you could say there are many parts that are difficult to follow. And you remember at some point in the series. I mentioned passage in Second Peter where Peter felt the same way That's right. Yeah, yeah, he says there are some things of Paul's letters that are hard to understand. However the question is. Is that intentional? He could. Is it a bug? My hunch is that for Paul's letters that it was expensive to write. Letters can talk about this future episodes. How how letters were actually produced and how expensive it was and the process involved, but I think part of it was just the way he communicated through these letters and the way his mind work. was like a beautiful mind. In terms of. Is this guy crazy or is this guy brilliant? I think it seems you can just feel bursting out of sentences in Galicians that there's whole volumes. He could riot on what's underneath just a couple of sentences and so? I think you actually could. You. Do need to read them over and over at least I have for years, but I'm not sure it's necessarily because he crafted the way. The Hebrew literature is crafted I. Think it's he was raised on that literature, and so he certainly is shaped by it and talks things by, but I think it's also just the nature of him his unique personality, and then the letter medium. How would you think I hear what you're saying there? Yeah, he not designed with the same maybe. Maybe intention analogy that scroll in the Tanakh would have been designed potentially, but he had internalized that design, and that tradition, and that tradition so much that it undergirds everything. He sang by Medicare, eating on Hebrew Bible, and then meditating on what Paul's writing. Yes, as cool chemistry that happens totally which I've noticed. Yeah, yeah, working on this project with you so many things come pop a lot more when when I start to see the things that that Paul was seeing And which are things that you've been pointing out these patterns and themes inside?

Ask LISA: Can Robots Get the Coronavirus?
"Last question of the day this one from a leash t in Fort Wayne. Indiana Alicia riots dearly can robots get the corona virus. If so what? Are you doing to stay safe good question? Thanks for your concern. Alicia the short answer to your question is yes. Robots can get the corona virus. And that's why ever since the outbreak began. I've decided to stop going to the park to lick the benches not just for my own safety. But for the safety of the community at large Lisa just ever well. There's so much to unpack in that answer. So I guess I'll start by asking why you would like a park bench under any circumstances pandemic or no debra when this is all over. I'm sure we'll all start to really appreciate the things. We used to take for. Granted the warm embrace of a loving relative the home of the crowd at a major league baseball game the taste of an aluminum bench on a warm summer evening. The little things that give life its flavor. It's rusty metallic flavor Okay moving on Lisa. I'm no doctor and I would certainly hate to give you bad advice. But I'm pretty sure that robots cannot get corona virus. One really. Well Yeah I. I don't think so. I mean. The virus has to attach itself to cells in the body. Do you have so. No cells are for suckers and humans and plants and fungi right. So in that case. I think you're pretty safe. Saw Off to lick bench okay. But since computers do get computer viruses from time to time. I'm wondering if you have any experience with those kind of viruses I don't know we saw. Have you been running your virus scanning software? Yes tell me the truth. It's just I hate Dr Borg Lisa. We install Dr Borg to keep you healthy. There's nothing to be afraid of. Come on let's do a scan fine

Breaking Down Bracketology
"I do WanNa flip the page to Rica's point some teams. That have worked very hard to get to this point. We've got eleven teams. Charlie that have punched their ticket so far to go dancing any surprises for you in the ache you I think we have one out. West correct so In the last couple of days of the West Coast Conference Tournament Portland is your winner. And they will now go to the tournament. they upset didn't zag in the semifinals and they will catch a little bit of. Portland's game yesterday in the championship when I flew into Vegas and they're upset of of Gonzaga disrupted. That's the surprise. It's SORTA disrupted the bubble a little bit because when you when you take it to my Portland who was not going to make it as an at large but Gonzaga certainly is well now the WC goes from having one team in the field to two teams in the field. Well he can only still sixty four teams so someone has to come out of the field to accommodate Portland's entrance and that affects the at large teams on the bubble and in the case of my bracket that not Boston College. Back out of the field. Who just a day earlier had slid into the field because there was another loss by someone else so everything with this in the championship weeks at circumstances everything affects something else because it's a numbers game. It's a sixty fourteen field no matter how you slice it so going forward and these next few days. We've got some other tournaments that could affect that in the same way and I mentioned this going back a week or so ago that their watch out for the bids steelers because there are certain mid majors that we know we're going to be in the field. They've earned the right to be in. The field is at large teams if they don't also go in there if they don't go in AH automatic qualifiers by winning their tournament. Well then that's an extra team that we didn't account for and brackets and that's an extra team now that the committee has to put into the field. That's one less team that can make it from some of these bubble team. So yeah the the big upset so far has been in the West Coast Conference in Gonzaga. Not Winning it and we've got some more to look forward to. The MAC happens to be one of those tournaments where there's not going to be. Any fans will central Michigan won the league pretty decisively. This year is a top twenty. Rpi team and most assuredly will make the field but now that tournament played before no one could be one of those that affects how the bubble teams go to central Michigan. Does it also come on? Come out on top in the tournament So that's that's certainly one for fans to watch as we go forward and you're GONNA have to watch it on TV because you're not gonna be able to buy it you're watching on TV though you will hear my voice. I'm on the call on Saturday for the championship. And the more reason to tune in now on the game and you can't get into the arena so the ratings should be sky high. Now it's via going okay. So I want to over to the big twelve. Charlie would where I know actually had a chance to call some big twelve games this year and I know. Tcu In particular was a team that was really making a push. I believe there in the field as it stands right now but I was state actually Jones. Who's a certified buck gator? They upset Baylor over the weekend which was a huge deal. I did a double take when I got the alert. Baylor is bailer their legitimacy. It probably doesn't change anything for them. But what does it do for Iowa State? Well I always stayed. I had as a tendency leading into that game and and it pushed him to a nine. And what that does is it's security. It's cushion because of the ten seed. Maybe the committee views them a little differently. Not Quite not quite at that level so that he's talking about eleven seed. Well that's a vulnerable team to some of the upset potential. We just talked about so what that win for Iowa State. I think is put to rest any question that they'd be in the field although I think there was a big one anyway but it but it certainly nails it down and they no longer would have. I don't think any anxious moments watching the selection show on Monday Now it's just GonNa be a matter of where do they go? And whom do they play? But I think that's what did for for I would say for sure and it would what it did do for. Baylor though while not it's not gonNA knock him out of a one seed it. Does maybe raise some questions. I personally didn't think that there was anything to worry about with. Frankly there weren't a lot of flaws there but the big twelve not not one of the better leagues in the country this year of the power. Five Leagues I think it's probably fifth and they haven't been severely tested in a while and I always say certainly did that and the it might raise some question marks about Baylor going forward. I think they can answer any of those questions in the big twelve tournament because I was sneaking suspicion. They're going to come out with a little extra in that game and it could be ugly for the other. Big Twelve teams In the big twelve tournament but that said it does it. It shows little vulnerability that I didn't think Baylor had and that makes it a little more intrigued when we get to the tournament. Time itself I agree with you one hundred percent. I know look at the box. Were trying to figure out what the deal was. And nothing really was like crazy glaring. But I do think you're right. I know a ton of folks are going to be studying that tape to see what I was able to do right well that was able to watch some of that game and when I did was really slow the Temple. They hope to threes in the second half. They made more threes than they made. Twos in the game and the believer and it was and it was so slow paced and Baylor never found a rhythm that they they say clog everything inside the Lauren Cox had almost no room to move it. Kinda dared the Baylor shooters to shoot and they just had one of those games where they weren't making shots so maybe at least down a blueprint for some other teams as to how to at least approach Valer Ago You mentioned as an example Yukon being a number two seed and I know over the past few years you have seen to have had all these regional conferences in such a favorable area. I think at the Albany region that they mostly have been seated but this year they would be projected number two in the Portland region and I think as much as we talk about Yukon not being the same Yukon is as pass. There's still a very good basketball team. Won thirty nine. Oh in their conference over these last few years in the American and I think that having them with the possibility of travel really makes this team look a little different because they aren't the same team as years pass. Tell us a little bit about how that could affect their performance. Assuming they make the sweet sixteen you're right and Seven out of the last eight years. They've either played in Albany. Bridge for for Kingston Rhode Island. So they they have not had to get on an airplane until the final four in seven out of those those eight years. But let's let's be honest earned it ju- every one of those years with the possible exception of last year because they were the best team in the country in those years too so and when when cities bid for these regionals it just so happened that that all those years those particular low cows bid and got regionals to be able to host. And you can't happen to be close so this year. Those regionals are don't exist. There is no Albany. There is no Kingston. There is no bridgeport and no matter what was going to have to get on an airplane. And you're right. I think it will look a little bit. Different seeing a yukon in a faraway place. I don't think it's going to impact on the whole Locke. Though to be honest I think the people that are bothered by the possibility of uconn going West are the players and the coaching staff. Everything I've heard from them is like. Hey we'll bring it on. We'll play wherever we'll play whomever we'RE NOT THAT CONCERNED ABOUT. Gino's been been pretty adamantly over the years but this year when the subject's soon kinda shrug your shoulders. Look I you know. I don't have any control over it and we'll go play and it will do what we do and I think he said the other night after the the American championship game. We'll do what we do. I hope I think That's sort of the philosophy that they're gonNA take me. Maybe their fans aren't happy and maybe people who who look at the tournament and see certain things as they view them. Unfair that a team that is fifth overall. My take would be the one that has to travel. Based on the fact that other teams can can drive to the region. So we'll get into the reason why you would be going to Portland is very simply that The NC Double A. Would prefer as much as possible that teams that can drive rather than fly two games that they're gonNA play It's written right in the procedures principles of putting the bracket together that mode of transportation distance from campus. Things that they consider will this year Louisville can drive the Fort Wayne Regional? Nc State can drive to the Greenville regional. So if you assume that those are those are two of the other number number two seeds. Then they're going to be plotted in those regions and then the other one being Stanford and Stanford mashed up with Oregon would would also violate one of the principles of putting the bracket together and they They try to keep teams seeded on the top four lines from the same conference separate. So they're so they're in different regions. They wouldn't even meet until the final four now. In this case the fact twelve might have five teams in top sixteen making that impossible but in years past when that's happened the committee's not put one a one and a two. They've put fit when a four again. So it's highly highly unlikely that Oregon at Stanford Movie Place Together which only leaves one region left for Yukon to go to which is Portland matched up with. Oregon is the one in the two. So that's the why behind it and I think we talked about the the what or in the case of I think the Yukon players coaches the. So what I don't know that they that it matters to them very much but it does create an interesting conversation around how the tournament is bracketed. And some of these rules. That maybe fans aren't quite as aware of in the the head-scratching that I get from from fans and social media. Say Well if you cons five. They should be matched up with the number four overall team based on the curve. And that's Maryland so they should be going to Fort Wayne. Well we don't ever. The S curve is used to plot the teams in the tournament. But it's not used strictly to place them in these numerical matchups one in eight go together. Two and seven go together. It's never worked that way. It doesn't work that way in the men's tournament. The committee will try to do that as much as possible. That's the goal. But if you've got these graphical instances at hand as well then there there's other ways to balance the bracket and. That's I think what's going to happen. This year with
How I Built This
Panera Bread/Au Bon Pain: Ron Shaich (2018)
"Ron Shake isn't a household name like you say Howard Schultz but you could argue that. What Howard Schultz did for coughing Ron shake did for cheddar broccoli soup or the SEO cheese he's Bagel because like Howard? Ron Wasn't just focused on product. He was interested in creating a space of place where people could hang out for a long time. Maybe even have a PTA meeting or social gathering and really linger over that Bagel or cup soup. This is the famous third-place concept concept that both Howard Schultz and Ron shake wanted to tap into in. That's how Panera became one of the fastest growing restaurant chains in the world. In fact if you've invested the seven thousand dollars in Pinera stock in nineteen ninety nine. You'd be sitting on more than half a million dollars by two two thousand seventeen now. The thing is if you met Ron shake say in high school. This is not the path you've predicted for him. Ron Wasn't even interested in business. Is Passion was politics. His parents were raging liberals and Ron grew up going to rallies and volunteering on campaigns. All over New Jersey eventually went to Clark University where naturally he majored in politics and he was quickly elected to student government. And that could have been Ron's life life except for one day when something happened to Ron and a group of friends something kind of small but something that when you look back on it probably probably changed his entire life. Yeah so we. We were in a local convenience store called store. Twenty four cross the street from the main entrance to the Clark campus and they accused US shoplifting and tossed us out cecily guys just being rowdy earnings or wild. No we were shopping but I came back to campus episode and I was in my dorm with a couple of friends and I said you know. Why are we shopping there? How they can they treat us like this? What supports that store? We said what do we need what we can we can do this ourselves. We can have our own convenience store and I said you know this isn't going to be that hard. Let's go do it. And we approach the university. They weren't so keen on this but I moved the question to student body They voted in support of it and I basically agreed to spend that summer between my sophomore and junior here opening this convenience store guy. Wow So. What'd you guys Sal We sold Everything from drinks to Munchies two cookies and candy and you know our assistant manager would come to my apartment at five in the morning and we actually would go to this deep discount supermarket and buy I don't know ten or fifteen baskets full of merchandise that we'd stocked the store with and We hired twenty or thirty different students to work there. I will be very franken. Saint Joe's more interested in that store than when I was in my own academically. And and your guy who's all still focused on public policy in government but I guess this it was Kinda cool you liked. He kind of liked doing business running a business. Yeah and and you know. I didn't see myself as that kind of guy and it took me a wile to make sense of that but in so many ways running a business is no different than campaign in fact a campaign is a the business that that essentially has one day in which it ends a business campaign that goes on and never ends so at this point in his life. Ron Wasn't quite sure what he wanted to do. Business or politics but people around him saw how how much he loved running that convenience store and a lot of people said. Hey why don't you get an MBA. So Ron did he enrol at Harvard. Business School in Nineteen seventy six. And when he finished unlike a lot of his classmates who went into banking or finance ron decided to go into retail and he took a job in the mid west and a place called held the original cookie company. Twenty stores in shopping malls We grew it to about one hundred and twenty five. I took the job as the third year of the NBA. What I mean by that is I took a job as a district manager? Basically Iran ten or fifteen of these cookie stores half the United States and I spent went My time running around the country and I ended up opening thousands of these cookie stores around the country so as certain point you're learning about the cookie business I guess and then at a certain point you get this idea like hey I can do this myself. I can have my own cookie store yes and and I can literally remember traveling Cross Indiana. I'm away to Fort Wayne Dope a new cookie store and it hit me and I said why are we opening this in a Mav. There's a huge opportunity open these in in an urban setting. Why don't we open one and I can remember going to my boss? I remember him taking me to meet. Beat the CEO of the company. Said I wanNA open an urban cookie. Store looks him and he says we don't do that here. We Open Mall based retail units. I thought to myself well. If you're not GONNA do it. I'd like to go do it. Why shouldn't we and I'm the Kinda guy by Sam going to do it? I want to go do it and it led led me to actually resigning my job and I moved back to Boston and I started looking for real estate and the reality was. Nobody would Li space for cookies. Find any sir for cookie store because they thought it wouldn't make enough money to pay the rent. 'cause I had no credibility. Yeah I had no real money I had you know no balance sheet to sign a lease and so I went to my dad and I said I I want my inheritance. Whatever it's going to be I want the opportunity to use it and I had about twenty five thousand dollars Ned Essentially let me. He gave me seventy five thousand dollars and that one hundred thousand dollars became the GRUB stake the equity. That allowed us to build that. I four hundred square-foot cookie store. Wow in downtown Boston. What did you name the store? We named it the cookie jar and I can remember. We took the toll house recipe. Right it off the bag. I bought a small mixer and I would pass out cookies in front of the stories that we were building. It and I'd start to adjust the recipe based on what I learned talking to customers and and you were the baker. You were making cookies yourself. Yeah we opened. There were three employees. I made it was me and to folks I will never forget at that day. It just seemed like people never stopped walking a coming in and purchase fifty thousand people day going by and I'll never forget it. I got to the end of the day walking past or foot traffic. Yeah but I got to the end of that at first afternoon. We opened one o'clock guide and by six we closed and my back was hurting. Oh and legs were hurting. And I can't in the money and I I realize we only brought in four hundred dollars. I mean you forget when we talk about business what it is the self the four hundred batches of cookies buck each and the amount of energy and work that goes into
