Bounce Back Stronger with Donna FerrisThe Power of Grit with Cindy Ross and Todd Gladfelter“I'm glad I didn't wait until I retired to do the things that I wanted to do…cause now that we've been in rehab, we see people way younger, little kids, people in their twenties that are in worse shape. And it's like, man, at least I had 60 years of doing what I wanted to do.”
In this episode of Bounce Back Stronger, host Donna Ferris sits down with Cindy Ross, a seasoned adventurer and writer, and her husband, Todd Gladfelter, whose life took a dramatic turn after a severe spinal cord injury. Together, they share their incred...2024-08-2528 min

The Boom Real Estate PodcastEpisode 256 (Season 8, Episode 9) - Create Supplemental IncomeEpisode 256 (Season 8, Episode 9) Create Supplemental Income I think we can all agree on two things: 1) red M&M’s are the best and 2) things have been tough with real estate lately. We all love it when everyone is selling their homes, but how do we handle those moments when things are slow? We preach to “double down” on your real estate efforts, but if you must, looking for another source of income may be the preferred solution. Let’s explore some options and dive deep into the Wright Brothers. We’ll also listen...2024-04-0937 minThe Boom Real Estate PodcastEpisode 254 (Season 8, Episode 7) - Build Your BrandEpisode 254 (Season 8, Episode 7) Build Your Brand If there was ever an episode that we did our best to avoid offering details on real estate-related materials, this might be the one! Frankly, there is more talk about Adam Driver than brand marketing. So much so that we’re worried that Mr. Driver himself may come after us! (Especially considering that he has family in Indiana, so we’re basically in his backyard!) If you’re short on time, the main takeaway is to work on building your brand, since it’s essential to the s...2024-03-2638 minThe Boom Real Estate PodcastEpisode 253 (Season 8, Episode 6) - Love on Your SphereEpisode 253 (Season 8, Episode 6) Love on Your Sphere The Team needed some time off to do their own independent research about air conditioning systems in cars.

The Boom Team, (mostly Todd and Terry), spent the first 15 minutes of this episode, (and much of the rest), fighting about how a car’s A/C works. Did either win the argument? You’ll have to listen to weigh in. So to recap, on our 251st episode, we simultaneously put together what could be argued as both the best and worst episode ever!

TapeHeads: 80's Music and Beyond08: The Police, "Don't Stand So Close To Me" | Ferris Bueller's Day OffThis episode finds us discussing a controversial song by The Police, so much so that they actually recorded two different versions of it, the original in 1980 which creeped everybody out, and the 1986 version which not only broke up the band (essentially), but also incorporated our favorite instrument, the Fairlight.
We also discuss one of the most famous 80's movies of them all, Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

After finding a 3 ½-month-old piglet at a former small-scale "farm to table" type facility he was looking at in order to turn it into a sanctuary, Todd demanded to have the pig handed over to him. That pig he named Arthur. Arthur, who was the last pig to be threatened with death at that place, was the first pig to receive sanctuary there.
