    The Original Phillie Phanatic Saved My Life | Dave Raymond | Ep 097

    Send us a text 🗣️ In 1978, Dave Raymond became the FIRST person to ever wear the Phillie Phanatic costume. He had no training, no acting experience, and his only direction? "Go have fun. G-rated fun." For 16 years, he brought joy to millions. He danced with nuns. He handed babies to strangers. He knocked over ground crews. He made the Phanatic an icon. But behind the mask, his life was falling apart. When tragedy struck, Dave told the Phillies he had to quit. But during his final appearances, something unexpected happened: "When I got out of the costume, I felt a tick better." The Phanatic saved his life. Key insights: 🗣️ His deaf mom taught him physical comedy - becoming his greatest gift when he needed it most 🗣️ "Go have fun" was his only direction - he made it up as he went 🗣️ The fanatic puts the FUN in funerals - powerful fun works everywhere 🗣️ Philadelphia fans threw snowballs at Santa because "Santa sucked that day" 🗣️ He handed babies to strangers for laughs (yes, really) 🗣️ Vodka + water = the secret to cleaning mascot costumes 🗣️ When you're in crisis, your brain tells you things feel "legitimate" that aren't 🗣️ A 17-year-old girl told him she was thinking about ending her life - after hearing his story, she changed her mind POWERFUL FUN methodology: 🗣️ F = Force (Fun isn't just for break time - it's a tool everywhere) 🗣️ U = Universal (It works at funerals, hospitals, layoffs - anywhere) 🗣️ N = No (Learning to overcome the "fun killers" who say "don't do that") 🎥  Check out this episode on Youtube for photos and videos of Dave in action! https://youtu.be/fj_mmB4pE0Q?si=rtkAT6AvY32ci9ll Resources:  Website: DaveRaymondSpeaks.com - https://daveraymondspeaks.com/  Book: "The Power of Fun" - https://daveraymondspeaks.com/the-book/ Chapters: [00:00] Introduction & Hosts Preview [02:15] Growing Up with Tubby Raymond [04:19] Becoming the First Phillie Phanatic [06:08] Meeting the Muppet People [07:23] First Day: "Go Have Fun" [10:18] Creating the Ground Crew Routine [13:50] Dancing with Nuns from "Nunsense" [16:10] Why Mascots Matter [19:24] Vodka Spray Cleaning Trick [22:34] The Baby Story [25:13] How His Deaf Mom Taught Him Physical Comedy [28:18] When Everything Changed [32:51] How the Phanatic Saved His Life [37:15] POWERFUL FUN Explained [45:37] The Girl Who Needed His Story [47:32] Writing the Book [50:47] Why Santa Deserved Those Snowballs [52:35] Outro Connect with Gurus and Game Changers: 🎥 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GurusAndGameChangers 📲 Instagram - Stacey: https://www.instagram.com/staceymgrant/ 📲 Instagram - Mark: https://www.instagram.com/mark_lubragge_onair/ ✨ Subscribe for more game-changing conversations ✨ Share with someone who needs to hear this ⚠️ This conversation includes frank discussions about loss, grief, and mental health struggles.

    He Left His Career to Give Women What They're Starving For | Ep 096

    Send us a text "You can rent. You can't buy." That's George Goulburn's mantra and it's the key to understanding one of the most emotionally complex professions in the world. George is a male paid companion in Australia. Most of his clients are women 45-80 who haven't experienced intimacy in years. Some have been in sexless marriages for 10+ years. Others are widows who thought desire was behind them. He says, "The misconception is that it's just about physical intimacy. It absolutely is not." But George has a problem: He's TOO good. "You've set the bar too high," clients tell him. "No one else will be able to step up to your level." When you provide genuine intimacy—when you make women feel truly seen and desired—they fall in love. Easily. So how does George maintain boundaries while giving someone the experience of their life? "That can be heartbreaking," George admits. "It can be really tough." What these ladies are paying for is feeling seen, desired, and safe—without complications. 🗣️ He vets every client through hours of conversations 🗣️ He turns away 80% of potential clients 🗣️ If he's not the right fit, he won't take the money 🗣️ He'd rather transform a woman once than keep her dependent 🗣️ Our `Australian` guest shares insights on the delicate balance between physical connection and companionship, highlighting how genuine `relationships` offer something `artificial intelligence` cannot replicate. This conversation explores the profound `ai limit` in mimicking true human interaction, emphasizing the irreplaceable value of a simple touch. It truly resonates with the `heart strings`, reminding us that some experiences are uniquely human and beyond the reach of technology.

    2 Words That Make You (And Your Kids) More Confident | The Be Great Guy - Mark Papadas | Ep 094

    Send us a text "I am ___." How you finish that sentence determines everything. When Mark Papadas, "The Be Great Guy," asked fifth graders to complete it, 50% wrote: "I am fat," "I am stupid," "I am ugly." Adults? 80% just said their name and job title—labels that have nothing to do with who they really are. After training adults for over a decade working with Tony Robbins, Mark discovered his true mission: teaching people how to create confident, empowered identities using just two words—"I am." What You'll Learn: Why "I am" is the foundation of confidence (and how most people get it wrong)The shocking discovery: 50% of kids think they're fat, stupid, or uglyHow parents accidentally program negative identities without realizing itMark's powerful 2-minute morning practice (he shares his complete version at 17:44)The 5-step process to build unshakeable confidenceWhy "wrong means right" and how to make fear funThe 3 traits kids have that adults need back: persistence, curiosity, and ingenuityMark's Journey: After being beaten regularly by his older brother as a child, Mark became hungry for personal development. He ran operations for Tony Robbins' Chicago franchise before his epiphany: teach these tools to kids BEFORE they develop baggage. His "I Am For Kids" program is in 37 schools across 9 states, producing 40% grade increases and 60% reductions in disciplinary problems.

    WTF Just Happened: How a Skeptic Found Proof of the Afterlife | Ep 093

    Send us a text After her father died, Liz Entin assumed the afterlife was fantasy - as realistic as the tooth fairy. Then she found university research that changed everything. Liz Entin is a logical skeptic who set out to disprove the afterlife and ended up proving it exists. She's conducted 80+ medium readings (with hidden identity and fake names), studied children with verifiable past life memories, and discovered research so compelling that even Carl Sagan said it was "worthy of serious investigation." She's also the woman who testified in the Harvey Weinstein trial - and whose Chihuahua famously chased him around her apartment. [00:00] Introduction & Hosts Preview [01:19] Meet Liz Entin [01:26] How WTF Just Happened Started [03:00] Driven by Grief and Hope [03:50] What Blew Her Away About the Research [04:51] Children with Past Life Memories [05:56] Thousands of Cases Documented [06:40] How Does She Explain It?

[29:14] Could She Ever Believe in God? [31:07] How to Reach Liz The evidence that convinced her: - Children with Past Life Memories: - University of Virginia researchers Dr. Jim Tucker and Dr. Ian Stevenson have documented thousands of cases - Kids under 5 remember specific details: names, locations, how they died - James Leininger: Remembered dying in WWII plane crash, knew aircraft details only experts would know, identified three men from his squadron by hair color - Civil War case: Child knew soldier's name, wife's name, specific battle where he died - Carl Sagan endorsed this research as valid and worthy of serious study Her conclusion: "There's a preponderance of evidence - probably beyond a reasonable doubt at this point." Liz testified in the Harvey Weinstein trial. Her 12-pound Chihuahua, Peanut, chased Harvey around her apartment and he was terrified. The story went viral worldwide. She says without doubt he is guilty. On grief and hope: "I'm much more scared of permanent obliteration than any other form of consciousness. Finding this evidence brought joy combined with the worst I've ever felt."

    Hidden Talent: Why Everyone's Wrong About AI and the Future of Work | Ep 92

    Send us a text Everyone's talking about AI taking jobs. But workforce expert Dr. David DeLong says the real crisis is the opposite: By 2030, we'll have 3 million more jobs than workers. Dr. DeLong has been interviewed by NPR, Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Fortune, and Bloomberg about workforce trends. He's the author of five books including "Hidden Talent" and has spent decades studying the interaction between people, technology, and work. While headlines scream about AI automation, the data tells a different story: The US will have 12 million jobs and only 9 million workers to fill them (Congressional Budget Office). The question isn't "will AI take my job?" - it's "where will we find enough workers?" Dr. DeLong reveals three massive talent pools employers are completely overlooking. The AI reality check: "Nobody knows what the impact of AI is going to be. What we do know from history is new types of jobs get created. Jobs will go away or change, but other new jobs will be created. Meanwhile, landscapers, construction workers, nurses, teachers - plenty of fields won't be replaced by machines. Those jobs must be filled by humans." The overlooked talent pools: 🗣️ Refugees and immigrants (skilled workers ready to contribute) 🗣️ Formerly incarcerated (second chance hiring with proven results) 🗣️ People with disabilities (often requiring minimal accommodations) Why the workforce is actually shrinking: 🗣️ Baby boomers retiring in massive numbers 🗣️ Declining fertility rates (fewer people entering workforce) 🗣️ Fewer working-age men participating in labor force 🗣️ Skills gap widening across industries Resources: Website: SmartWorkforceStrategies.com Book: "Hidden Talent: How to Employ Refugees, the Formerly Incarcerated, and People with Disabilities" Free Chapter: ReadHiddenTalent.com CHAPTERS [00:00] Introduction & Hosts Preview [00:45] Meet Dr. David DeLong [01:13] Technology, People, and the Changing Workforce [01:38] The Declining Workforce Crisis [02:36] Fewer Babies, Fewer Workers [03:20] 3 Million Worker Shortage by 2030 [03:59] What About AI Taking Jobs?
