1 00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:03,960 Speaker 1: This is the five minute Focus, the last five minute Focus. 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:07,040 Show's not going anywhere. It's making some changes. I'll explain 3 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:08,880 it just a second. No one panic, no one freak out. 4 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:10,960 Some people love the five minute Focus. They consider it 5 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,599 my master work. We'll explain while we're doing this. Don't worry, 6 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:19,239 Everything's going to be cool. Five minute Focus for August fifteenth, 7 00:00:19,399 --> 00:00:22,800 twenty twenty four. Thank you to Alan soapsot com sas 8 00:00:22,839 --> 00:00:24,000 Todd and to God Almighty. 9 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:29,480 Speaker 2: The Todd Herman Show is one hundred percent disapproved by 10 00:00:29,559 --> 00:00:36,479 big pharma technocrats and tyrants everywhere. No from the high 11 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:43,560 mountains of Free America. Here's the Emerald City exile Todd Herman. 12 00:00:51,759 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 1: Today is a day the Lord has made, and these 13 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,039 are the time So which God is this Saturday shall live. 14 00:00:56,119 --> 00:00:59,960 Welcome to the last five minute Focus. So why are 15 00:01:00,159 --> 00:01:02,039 we wrapping this up? I'll make it quick because it 16 00:01:02,119 --> 00:01:05,959 is the five minute Focus. The five minute Focus has 17 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:07,879 been a way to let people know what's coming up 18 00:01:07,879 --> 00:01:10,560 in the next couple hours of podcasting, and I've enjoyed 19 00:01:10,599 --> 00:01:12,280 doing it for the most part. Sort of fun to 20 00:01:12,359 --> 00:01:15,760 contend everything into this tiny little mix. We are making 21 00:01:15,799 --> 00:01:21,840 investments in YouTube and it is a business must. For 22 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,239 our podcast to continue to thrive, for us to continue 23 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:29,719 to wisely steward the money God gives us, we need 24 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,040 to focus on some things now. The audio podcast isn't 25 00:01:33,079 --> 00:01:34,959 going anywhere. It's not ever going to go anywhere. It's 26 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:38,159 always going to remain free, always in forever, and it's 27 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,439 the bulk of our audience. We heard you say you 28 00:01:41,519 --> 00:01:43,840 didn't like the clip versions of the show. I didn't either. 29 00:01:43,879 --> 00:01:45,879 It was chunky and it was annoying. It was a 30 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,000 quick experiment, and I come from a fail fast environment. 31 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,319 That was how I was raised as an executive at Microsoft. 32 00:01:51,599 --> 00:01:54,319 Fail you're going to fail, we encourage you. But when 33 00:01:54,319 --> 00:01:56,879 you fail, fail fast. That thing didn't work. So now 34 00:01:56,879 --> 00:01:59,400 we're back to two hours of programming, the second hour 35 00:01:59,519 --> 00:02:04,000 just being three focused shows, mini shows within a show, free, 36 00:02:04,079 --> 00:02:07,799 three focused topics. So instead of doing the five minute focus, 37 00:02:07,799 --> 00:02:09,879 we're going to be putting some effort into YouTube. It's 38 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:13,319 free and everybody can access it and understand this. I 39 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:18,080 am not interested in you being what crowd in the video. 40 00:02:18,479 --> 00:02:20,719 I don't watch much web video. I have no time 41 00:02:20,759 --> 00:02:23,439 for it. Most of what I do if I'm consuming 42 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,560 media is listen to it. If video doesn't work for you, 43 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,560 don't use it. But understand this, young people are using it. 44 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,680 YouTube is the number one podcasting platform of the world, 45 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,319 so I have to invest in it. So please understand that. 46 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,840 Now down to the business of the five minute focus. 47 00:02:39,039 --> 00:02:42,680 Really cool thing. Zach Abraham is joining us live, so 48 00:02:42,759 --> 00:02:45,520 if you're not a subscriber, I'll have my Twitter account 49 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,159 open at Toddy Hermann, is that what I am on Twitter? 50 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 3: Is that right? 51 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 1: I think that is right, Toddy Herman, That's what I'm 52 00:02:50,879 --> 00:02:53,159 on Twitter. So on Twitter, I'll have that open. You 53 00:02:53,199 --> 00:02:55,919 can submit questions for Zach Live time. There's a lot 54 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,840 to talk with them about. Stock futures didn't change much 55 00:02:58,879 --> 00:03:02,159 even though there was a key in inflation discussion. There 56 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,840 is a faster, way, better way to make more money 57 00:03:04,879 --> 00:03:08,000 than the S and P five hundred over the past century. 58 00:03:08,199 --> 00:03:10,439 I don't know what it is. It has to do 59 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,759 with trading one foreign currency for another foreign currency. You 60 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,599 make more money than you did in the stock market. 61 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,360 I'll have Zach explain that. Plus the end of the Starbucks, 62 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:23,240 the Howard Schultz era. Has this anything to do with 63 00:03:23,319 --> 00:03:28,120 the DEI focus and the failures there? Plus Boeing people 64 00:03:28,159 --> 00:03:30,840 trapped in the space station. Remember where you first heard 65 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,000 the tale of how bad management is at Boeing. That's 66 00:03:34,039 --> 00:03:37,439 episode one thousand, seven hundred and ninety nine, Episode one 67 00:03:37,879 --> 00:03:42,240 seven hundred and eighty. JK. Rowling and Elon Musk are 68 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:46,439 being targeted for cyberbullying. This is by the man who 69 00:03:46,439 --> 00:03:48,599 beat the garbage out of women in the Olympics and 70 00:03:48,639 --> 00:03:51,280 then went and fought another man for a female title. 71 00:03:51,879 --> 00:03:55,120 He's suing JK. Ralling and Elon Musk. We'll talk about that. 72 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,360 And in a very related story, a man who calls 73 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:03,639 himself Allah Stone Williams, former president of the Orchard Group 74 00:04:03,759 --> 00:04:09,520 church planting Network, is out to support Christians for Kamala Harris. 75 00:04:09,719 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 3: I hope you will give, and I hope you will 76 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,840 give again and again and again, and I hope you 77 00:04:13,879 --> 00:04:17,560 will take every opportunity you have and you will remember 78 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:22,879 the children, all those kids who have every right to 79 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,319 live an authentic life. 80 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:31,079 Speaker 1: An authentic life spoken by a man pretending to be 81 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,480 a woman living an authentic life. By the way, if 82 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,759 you go look for that on Google, you just have 83 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,480 to know the search phrases. If you want to find 84 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:39,800 out if that's really a man, you just have to 85 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,959 know the search phrases because Google likes to hide that 86 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:46,279 because Google is involved in making sure we don't dead 87 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,000 name people or dead gender people. That is the five 88 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:50,879 minute focus. Please do share it with friends, and much 89 00:04:50,879 --> 00:04:53,600 more importantly, please go with God's good grace.
