We recorded our 62nd episode on Saturday, November 29, 2025 about The Paul Revere Effect:

"The Paul Revere Effect refers to when a work of fiction warns about a potential danger or future outcome, and later events in the real world end up resembling that warning. It’s not just predicting the future — it’s alerting society to a threat before it happens, the same way Paul Revere warned colonists about an approaching danger."

We recorded our 61st episode on Wednesday, November 12, 2025 focusing a bit deeper on referrals, referral marketing, and shades of referrals. From the "Here's a phone number to call" to "this is a closed deal, they are ready to pay you", there are many shades of referrals. What are the differences? The amount of time and effort for the sales person to close the deal and the depth and strength of the relationship between the three parties involved in a referral.

Miles and I met at a networking event (in 2012!) and we've passed dozens (hundreds?) of referrals worth tens of thousands of dollars. Enjoy!

Dave here: First it was my phone, then my car, and finally my laptop: all three ran out of battery juice in the span of just a couple days. When the car battery was too low to start the car, I was stranded and it was 34 degrees and night time. I got lucky to get out of that one without getting too cold or spending too much money. All this battery talk made me think about how our personal batteries run low and what we do to overdo it and how we recharge. Enjoy our conversation about batteries and recharging.
