Marketing is Mind Control

In this episode of Marketing Is Mind Control, The Nerd reflects on the power of media narratives, the danger of misrepresentation, and how context shapes our understanding of public figures like Charlie Kirk.

With a heavy heart, the conversation moves through questions of empathy, the nature of evil, and the emotional weight of societal issues like gun violence and political bias.

Listeners are invited to look beyond sound bites, examine their own responses, and consider how critical thinking can help navigate the complex landscape of identity, communication, and free speech in today’s world.

WHAT DID CHARLIE KIRK SAY ABOUT GUN VIOLENCE
What did Charlie Say about Black People and Racism in America?
Charlie tries to have a conversation with someone who hates him. 
What Erika Kirk said about Charlie Kirk's Assassination

Here is a clipping of soundbites that are explosive and taken out of context, with the creator calling anyone standing up for him "the harm he caused..."  but he couldn't quote the full text of what he was angry at him about. - https://youtu.be/S4rwWu1rJ7c?feature=shared

He said about Civil Rights, "It should be a one page declaration that says, 'No one should be discriminated against for their race." and then justified saying that Civil Rights act was a problem because it is now being loopholed to allow men to participate in women's sports, and often asked black people if they agreed with that stance and they vehomently said "Hell Nah!" and Charlie would say, "So, I don't think you want that act used against you." and I think that makes sense. It doesn't say that he thinks racism is okay and black people are unintelligent, or that he thinks they shouldn't be protected from discrimination. It says the opposite, but out of context, it's inflammatory. 


YOU'VE BEEN LIED TO! 

"Abortion is worse than the holocaust because we've killed ___ Million Americans a year." that statement seems about right.... and it's done out of personal choice for personal preference USUALLY, so how is that statement WRONG? maybe sad, insensitive to jewish families, or uncomfortable, but how is it wrong?

YOU'VE BEEN LIED TO!

Marketing Like a Nerd: SEO, Ads, and What Your DNA Might Say About Your Skin

Hosted by: The Nerd on Your Marketing Team
Channel: Let’s Hash It Out (submitted for NASNPROtv syndication) If you’re an esthetician who’s tired of chasing trends, burning out on content creation, or wondering why your “consistent posting” still isn’t filling your books—this episode is your permission slip to think differently.
💥 No fluff.
💥 No generic Canva quote posts.
💥 No surface-level “six-figure spa” talk. Just real marketing insights, bold strategy, and a few curveball questions—like what if your DNA actually matters in how your skin reacts to treatments… and how your esthetician could use that information to serve clients better? In this episode, The Nerd unpacks:

• What actually works in spa marketing (SEO, ads, brand voice—not reels for the algorithm)
• Why most estheticians sabotage their own growth by waiting to “feel ready”
• How the Facet Method blends SEO, paid ads, and done-for-you content
• Interesting genetic markers that could (maybe) influence facial results
• Why marketing needs to be honest, not hyper-curated

Perfect for estheticians, spa owners, or skincare educators who:

• Think independently
• Don’t fit into the “Instagram estie” mold
• Want marketing that aligns with real values, not vanity metrics
• Appreciate strategy, integrity, and a little side of science

Let's Hash it Out | For the LOVE of BEAUTY
Featuring Lora Condon, LE TheBeautyBuster.com

On this episode, we hash out the world of beauty with none other than the famous @BeautyBuster, as seen on Dr. Oz and your bestseller bookshelf list! We enjoyed discussing the raw side of beauty and how a human with skin can benefit from seeing someone who is trained to care for skin: an esthetician (or aesthetician, which is often confused with anesthesia—they are not the same!)

What is an esthetician? 
A well-trained person who cares for skin with an in-depth look at your skincare routine and what daily habits (such as, do you have acne? wash your pillowcase more often) are causing your skincare concerns. An esthetician is also someone trained to use higher potency products to provide a better result, which your home care routine will help maintain. It's a two-step process... You & Your Esthetician... to get clear skin. 

What is NOT great? 

• Ignoring your skin because no one taught you. 

• Ignoring your skin because you feel like you don't have money to treat yourself. 

• Ignoring your skin because you're embarrassed or "men don't do that" ....

Everyone has skin. Everyone has looked in the mirror and wondered, "Hmm... wonder what that is..." or "Wonder if I..." You don't need to redesign your face; you can simply learn to wash it properly—that's a good start! 


These opinions are mine. @TheNerdInCharge is an entertainment-only podcast that promotes products or people who SHINE bright. We intend to direct people to see the appropriate licensed person for their concerns. At no point in this podcast or on FacetsofInspiration.tv are we providing any medical advice, prescriptions, or protocols; we are just sharing ideas of what we are into and what works for us. 

Oh! And if you love ROMANCE! This amazingly talented esthetician and educator has written some books! Check it out at www.TheBeautyBuster.com
