1101: Church, Steeple, and the Trafficked People | Feedback Friday
10 Jan 2025
That slick businessman who bought your local church? His "art gallery" promises are looking more like a front for something sinister. It's Feedback Friday! And in case you didn't already know it, Jordan Harbinger (@JordanHarbinger) and Gabriel Mizrahi (@GabeMizrahi) banter and take your comments and questions for Feedback Friday right here every week! If you want us to answer your question, register your feedback, or tell your story on one of our upcoming weekly Feedback Friday episodes, drop us a line at [email protected]. Now let's dive in! On This Week's Feedback Friday: You live next to a historic church that was recently sold to a charismatic businessman with grand plans for an art gallery. But whispers of human trafficking and suspicious activities are swirling through your small town like autumn leaves. What's really happening behind those hallowed walls? You're locked out of your house, and the locksmith who finally shows up hits you with a bill that could buy a small yacht. But the real lock that needs picking? Your paralyzing fear of conflict. How do you build the backbone to stand up for yourself? Your neurodivergent 12-year-old son has been running a thriving business from your condo lobby, delighting residents with his entrepreneurial spirit. But now the building board is throwing bureaucratic thunderbolts his way. Can creativity trump red tape? You're crushing your career even on four hours of sleep with a six-month-old at home. But now you're caught in that classic new-parent paradox: how to keep climbing the corporate ladder while changing diapers? There's got to be a way to have it all, right? Recommendation of the Week: On Call A successful executive shares a story about dinner table epiphanies, early morning trains, and the cosmic calculus of how we spend our precious time. What he learned about the mathematics of moments will make you reconsider your own life's algorithm. Have any questions, comments, or stories you'd like to share with us?

Full Episode
This episode is sponsored in part by What Was That Like podcast. Have you ever wondered how it feels to watch your house burn down, be attacked by an alligator, or learn that your spouse hired someone to kill you? What Was That Like is the podcast for you, if you're that person. Not the person who got hired to be killed, but the person who wondered, more thankfully.
Real people come on every episode to explain the unbelievable situations they've been through. I think it's a funny concept for a show. I kind of wish I'd thought of it because I always get crazy stories from people. Not everything turns into a Jordan Harbinger episode. But What Was That Like?
is hosted by my friend Scott Johnson, who's naturally curious and gives his guests the opportunity to share how they've really felt during some of their most surreal experiences. What they did in the morning before an earthquake, what song was playing as a gunman entered, was their stomach growling as they hid? Guests share everything they remember about their crazy, crazy experiences.
So if you want to hear some disturbing slash inspiring firsthand stories about the thoughts that go through your head while surviving a kidnapping or winning the Price is Right, What Was That Like? is the podcast you've been looking for. Every story is thoroughly researched and fact-checked so you know even the most unreal stories are actually someone's reality. Listen to What Was That Like?
wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome to Feedback Friday. I'm your host, Jordan Harbinger. As always, I'm here with Feedback Friday producer, who's, you're just holding the largest Kay Bonito mug that probably exists, now that I think about it, courtesy of our awesome listener, Stephanie Keller, Gabriel Mizrahi.
Yeah, and I see you've got yours there too, right? It says, not your lawyer.
Yes, and I've said it before. Not only am I stoked that it says not your lawyer, I'm stoked that it holds approximately enough coffee to kill a baby elephant. Should it be administered to said baby elephant? But for me, it gets me out of bed in the morning here when it's all rainy like it is right now, even in California.
These mugs are pretty amazing. Shout out to Stephanie for these awesome holiday gifts. We're big fans over here. Definitely not official Cabanito merch. Yes. We won't tell the company, but I love that she made these custom mugs for us. They're super nice.
They're pretty great. I'm always amazed when people can actually make commercial quality stuff like this as a hobby. It's very impressive. I appreciate you. I can't even make commercial quality stuff as a career. So here we are. Thanks for listening to the show, by the way.
