  • Fraud for You with Dawn Rasmussen

    Fraud. It's an aggressive word, even by itself. It conjures images of massive Ponzi schemes or even memories of your last trip to a car dealership. But what if you could use those skills for yourself?.

    My guest today is Dawn Rasmussen. Dawn has spent her life tracking down and exposing fraud in the corporate setting. She is also an author in the same topic and joins us today to show us how we can use fraudster techniques to enhance our lives.

    Please also tell other people that you enjoy the podcast. The audience growth rate has essentially flatlined and that's a real bummer.

    The October rankings as we enter the final full week are:
    1. United States, with Oregon and California as the top states.
    2. Australia, with New South Wales firmly establishing it's place at the top.
    3. The United Kingdom, losing the race with Australia lately.
    4. Canada, with top province Alberta double the nearest competing province.
    5. Sweden, with top province Skåne barely outperforming the Västra Götaland County. Can someone tell me why there are 
    provinces and counties being measured like this?


    I'll see you all Thursday for the next optimized episode.

  • Artist Myths with Claude Larson

    A lonely artist sits with their beret askew, smoking their last cigarette in a dark and empty building. The canvas in front of them is blank and it taunts 

    their very existence. Will the muses not come this night? Will they die before they find notoriety?... That feel like the generic image we all know.

    Welcome to the Just Dumb Enough Podcast. I'm your host as always Colton Petry.

    My guest today is Claude Larson. Claude is an artist, and has been living this life path for well over 20 years. During that time she has been confronted 

    by the image of "artists" that most people see represented in over dramatized history and movies. She's here today to dispel some of these myths for 
    us today!

    If you're wondering why I've released three episodes this week, it's because two of those were uploads you never saw or got notified of when they 

    were originally posted. Because of all that: basically no one ever downloaded them. And after working with a technical support team, I found it's just 
    going to be whole lot easier to re-edit and re-publish them instead of fix the originals. I hope you all enjoy them!

  • Sports Pschotherapy with Michael Ceely

    (Reuploaded from Sept 13th following host site technical errors)

    When we think of professional athletes, we imagine the fearless performers on giant fields, filled with determination and lacking any self-doubt. But they are people just like you and me, with many experiencing mental challenges which impact their performance.

    My guest today is Michael Ceely. Michael is a Licensed Psychotherapist working primarily with athletes to help them metaphorically overcome hurdles. Mix a couple decades of experience in that with his past as an Olympic level athlete and you get someone who understands the mindset thoroughly. We talk about lot's of interesting ways to confront performance issues that I've never heard before. 

    Michael is also a new listener to the show, as we mention a little. If you want to be like Mike, talking about your passions, email [email protected] 

    Last time I'll bring this up, the one year episode is going to be up next Monday and I'm going to record live on Podbean Sunday Night starting at 7pm. Please send your questions in ahead of time, that way I can make sure I find time to answer them. [email protected]

    Over the last two months I've slipped from #1 in education on Podbean, to just the other night being knocked out of the top 3. And that still hurts even though I knew it wouldn't be that way forever.

  • Infertility with Frances Jones

    Bringing a child into this world can be a difficult decision. And sometimes that choice gets made for you through an accidental pregnancy, or as some may already know, through the inability to naturally conceive despite your best efforts and most heartfelt wishes..

    My guest today is Frances Jones. Francis is an author, speaker, and advocate stemming from her 20 year journey of being unable to conceive children of her own. She explains how hard she was on herself during those two decades and the toll it took on her life. Eventually we bring it back around to overcoming those feelings and the successes you can still have if you're in the same boat, but no spoilers here. Listen to the episode!

    Let's learn to stop punishing ourselves for our biology.

    The October rankings are back to normal after last week:
    1. United States, with California and Washington as the top states.
    2. Australia, with New South Wales just barely beating Victoria
    3. The United Kingdom, only losing second place to Australia by a single listener!
    4. Canada, with top province Alberta dominating the others.
    5. Sweden, with top province (and I feel like you're doing this intentionally now to watch me struggle) Skåne.

    Sorry to all the countries that were here and got bumped, but you'll have to try harder!

  • Positively Morbid Psychology with Jodi Wellman

    What if you were going to die tomorrow? Would you have regrets? I know I would.

    My guest today is Jodi Wellman. Jodi is a speaker, a coach, and an assistant instructor at the University of Pennsylvania for a Masters Level Psychology Program. She also owns and operates 4,000 Mondays to help people live a life without regrets whenever they finally reach their deathbed, be it tomorrow or in sixty years.

    This is one of those lesson that I can't believe we ever forget. Life is short, and no one makes it out alive. So why are we waiting to fulfill our dreams, or chase or goals? That's why hopefully this episode gets people thinking and laughing and motivated to do better for their own sake.
    Jodi also might be one of my favorite guest of all time. She's super funny and engaging at the same time, and not afraid to push even me to do the things that scare me while in the middle of the interview! Overall just an awesome time with a fantastic person and I hope you all enjoy it!

  • High Performance Coaching with Jordan Willshear

    How many of us out their struggle with perfectionism? Not a clinical "it consumes my life" perfectionism, but just a nagging feeling that you have to be better when you are doing a specific task. I know when I mess up on a project, even if it's just for fun, I beat myself up relentlessly. Does that sound familiar?

    My guest today is Jordan Willshear. Jordan has been coaching for going on 12 years now and frequently sees clients who struggle to find their way 

    or can't seem find a good balance between their results and their aspirations.

    Please do go back and listen to that one year episode if you haven't already. I'd really like to hear feedback on the ideas.

    The October rankings are all out of whack because it's a brand new month, but here we go:
    1. United States, making up only 35% of the audience with California and Wisconsin as the top states.
    2. Spain. Welcome to the top Spain, hopefully you keep growing in listeners and stay up here.
    3. Australia, with New South Wales tied for first with South Australia.
    4. Iran.
    5. Myanmar.

    The list is certainly shaken up by the way monthly statistics reset, but maybe this will put more pressure on those who used to be in the top 5.
