Cap's founders on shrinking their Stabledrop from $11M to $4M — plus a $23M hack traced toward North Korea, a BarnBridge governance exploit, and Kain's case to force weak L2s to become their own L1s. ======================================================== Thank you to our sponsors! Cape: Your biggest crypto vulnerability isn't your wallet, it's your phone number. Cape is America's privacy-first mobile carrier that rotates your SIM identity daily and blocks SIM swaps before they happen. Get 33% off your first six months at https://cape.co/unchained (use code: UNCHAINED). ======================================================== Cap committed to a roughly 11 million dollar Stabledrop in February, promising early users stablecoins instead of tokens. A delayed token sale raised less than hoped, and the reward shrank to about 4 million, forcing a fast rewrite of who got paid. Benjamin Sarquis Peillard, Founder and CEO of Cap, and Weso of Cap join Kain Warwick and Taylor Monahan to walk through a restructuring that made yield-token holders whole, left farmers without a windfall, and argue points programs are an uncapped marketing expense many projects cannot afford. The conversation widens into EthSystems, a new Ethereum Foundation spinout backed by Joe Lubin, SharpLink and BitMine, Jesse Pollak handing Base product leadership to Cobie, Robinhood Chain's Morpho integration, and whether Ethereum mainnet undercharges L2s. They revisit BarnBridge's SEC-era DAO structure, a dormant governance exploit, a MetaMask and Revoke.cash delegation tool, and a 23 million dollar Ostium hack Taylor traced toward North Korea. Kain closes with a Three Mile Island analogy: complex systems fail not from one mistake, but from small shortcuts compounding at once.

Projecting Vikings Extensions Under Nolan Teasley: O'Neill, Addison, Redmond, and a Kyler Murray Scenario — Tyler Forness and producer Dave discuss how new decision-maker Nolan Teasley might shape the Vikings roster by prioritizing contract extensions and their salary-cap effects. They project four possible extensions: RT Brian O'Neill (three years, $72M, $48M guaranteed) structured to lower near-term cap hits; WR Jordan Addison (three years, $82.5M, $34M guaranteed) with rising future cap numbers and void years; DT Jalen Redmond (three years, $48M, $23M guaranteed), noting his restricted free agent status and tender leverage; and a post-season Kyler Murray extension (four years, $140M) contingent on performance and Arizona's guaranteed-money timing. After all four, they estimate about $25M in 2027 cap space, discuss managing void-year dead money for several veterans, and preview training camp and a member call-in show. 00:00 Teasley Extension Outlook 01:40 Why Pay Your Own 02:54 Brian O'Neill Contract Case 06:07 Cap Math And Structure 12:06 Market Value Comparisons 16:36 Jordan Addison Extension Model 22:15 Cap Space After Two Deals 22:27 Jalen Redmond Extension Debate 27:46 Greenard Trade Fallout 28:29 Kyler vs McCarthy Extensions 30:26 Timing Guaranteed Money 31:19 Projecting Kyler Deal 33:34 Contract Structure Breakdown 36:23 McCarthy Fifth Year Option 39:55 If McCarthy Sits 43:08 Cap Space After Extensions 45:32 Draft Hits vs Free Agency 47:38 Front Office Uncertainty 48:39 Training Camp Countdown 49:53 Wrap Up And Membership _______________________ ⭐️ Subscribe to us here! - https://www.youtube.com/@vikings1stskol92 ⭐️ Our Twitter can be found at @Vikings1stSKOL ⭐️ Our Discord at https://discord.com/invite/493z6mQXcN ⭐️ Tyler Forness can be read at A to Z Sports - https://atozsports.com/nfl/minnesota-vikings-news/ ⭐️ Submit questions: forms.gle/7LJkCAern9kdUkuD8 ⭐️ On Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/vikings1standskol ⭐️ Watch the live show here: https://youtu.be/BGrNdO5SG6M Fan With Us!!!

Dan Frank of Silver Screen Printing is back — and a LOT has changed since his last appearance on the show. Dan went from a $2.7M print shop to projecting $23M this year with 110 employees, 60,000 sq ft, and facilities that essentially never close. Along the way: a full company restructure, two managers who had to move on, 15% raises across the leadership team, and a deliberate shift from being an operator to being a coach.
What if your biggest competitive advantage is already sitting inside your business, untapped?In this episode of Capability Amplifier, I sit down with Michael Rozbruch and Isaac Park to talk about how they built AutoDrive CRM, the nation's only marketing CRM designed specifically for tax resolution professionals.Michael spent 16 years growing a tax resolution firm from a dining room table startup into a $23 million company. After exiting in 2014, he launched Roz Strategies with his wife and business partner Rosalind, and went on to coach and train over 14,000 tax professionals. But his members kept running into the same wall: they couldn't automate the follow-up the way Michael had.Isaac Park came in as a digital marketing and automation specialist and helped Michael do something remarkable,he took decades of proven IP and packaged it into a scalable platform that any tax resolution pro can use.One beta user, CPA Toph Sheldon, went from struggling to convert leads at $400K-$600K to projecting $1.8 million in 2025, without spending more on marketing. Just better follow-up.This conversation is a masterclass in mentor-to-implementer partnerships, turning intellectual property into leverage, and why the niche you ignore might be the biggest opportunity in your market.In this episode, we cover:Why the best tech partner is probably already inside your business - and how to spot themMichael's 11-touch, 180-day follow-up system that converted 67% of unconverted consultationsHow Isaac learned to listen for the outcome first and fill in the technical details secondWhy most tax pros (and professional practice owners) have a case management system, not a real marketing CRMThe difference between a yes-man and a true problem solver - and why it matters for any partnershipHow Michael and Rosalind earmark a monthly budget specifically for testing and learningWhat the AutoDrive beta rollout taught them about building scalable software from proven IPWhere Ai fits into the future of AutoDrive - and what "solo millionaires" could look like in this industryTIMESTAMPS00:00 - Introduction: packaging decades of expertise into a scalable product02:14 - Michael's origin story: from fired on the 405 to $23M firm05:05 - Discovering the IP: how a tax resolution business became a coaching empire07:12 - Isaac joins the story: from implementation to partnership09:14 - What to look for in a tech partner (and where to find them)14:26 - Isaac's approach: submit to the authority, earn the freedom21:05 - The 11-touch, 180-day follow-up system that converts 67% of leads25:30 - Toph Sheldon: from $600K to $1.8M using AutoDrive38:01 - How to decide what to build next - and what to leave alone43:30 - Advice to their past selves: move faster, solve the big problem soonerDiscover More

For all the latest listings and real estate news go to www.domain.com.au QLD: 3 Callaway Court, Arundel QLD 4214 4 bed, 2 bath, SOLD: $1,235,000 Last month, an Arundel home sold ‘as-is’ for $1.23M, just $25K shy of the suburb’s median house price. The price tag came despite a total ban on inspections, due to extensive mould and water damage throughout the property. Regardless of the risks, that 730-square-metre block was seen as a high-value opportunity - proving just how far some will go to secure a slice of the property market. NSW: 6 Jubilee Avenue, Blackheath NSW 2785 5 bed, 3 bath The house that was built by an architect for an astronomer, the house comes a 3.5m by 2.5m elliptical skylight that retracts.

As the wine world stumbles through difficult times (in early 2026), Karen MacNeil, author of The Wine Bible and co-founder of Come Over October, believes part of the disconnect stems from time. The fastness of the modern, social media fueled world and the slowness of wine. Her solution is to focus the narrative of wine with well-being and wine's long-standing role as a beverage that brings people together. Detailed Show Notes: Karen's background: author of The Wine Bible, writer, speaker, teacherWorried that a change in culture, to a faster one with social media (took off in 2012 when Facebook hit 1B active users and >50% of the population had smart phones), has left wine, a slower product, behindWhite wine's appeal may be partly that it implies fastnessWine is slower to create (can take 3-5 years) and to consume (high acid, tannins for reds)Larger selection of beverages may also be competing for wine's share, including functional beverages that are marketed as “mindful”Wrote an article, “Is wine really in the alcohol business?” on how wine is more than alcohol, but threaded in the culture of food, history, religion, and artBelieves wine should promote the notion of wellbeing vs health, which includes better relationships from sharing wine with peopleStarted Come Over October w/ Gino Colangelo and Kimberly Charles, PR professionals2025: reached 2.9B media impressions, had 1,400 retail store promotions, raised $250kSister campaign is Share and Pair Sundays - to go beyond October, involve food, and help engage more restaurantsAll campaigns need a time, a reason, and a behaviorSeneca Lake Wine Trail doing Share and Pair SundaysTexas Wine Country doing “Come Over October Y'all”Most impactful event was an interview with Pink and sports figures, showing wine connects people across industriesThe wine industry will need to invest to get more people involved, the “Got Milk” campaign spent $23M in the first year Hosted on Acast.

Pac Nation called in HOT tonight, and Ryan held it down through a packed line as the Packers' offseason started making some real noise. Javon Hargrave is a Green Bay Packer on a 2-year, $23M deal — and if that kid's reaction video didn't get you fired up, check your pulse. The vision is coming together, and the phones lit up to prove it.

Most contractors complain about employees.John Seaman fired his entire crew in one day.What he built after that changed how his excavation company runs forever.Running excavation crews in the mountains of North Carolina means steep slopes, landslides, and million-dollar homes sitting on unstable ground. John Seaman built his company around solving the jobs nobody else wants to touch.But the real turning point in his business wasn't a project — it was the day he fired his entire crew and rebuilt the culture from scratch.In this episode, John breaks down how transparency with numbers, accountability in the field, and smarter scaling helped him grow a site development company that now handles complex projects across multiple states.Takeaways:✅ The Day He Fired EveryoneAfter coming back from a trip and realizing his crew had shut down work on their own, John fired the entire team and rebuilt the company culture from the ground up.✅ Why Most Contractors Scale Too FastAdding a second crew before the first one runs independently can lose money on both crews.✅ Saving Million-Dollar Homes on LandslidesJohn's team is known for emergency slope stabilization projects — including saving a $23M home with a million-dollar retaining wall.✅ Transparency With Numbers Changes EverythingEvery employee in his company knows what a job sells for, what it costs, and whether the company made money.✅ The System Most Contractors IgnoreTracking time and knowing your real daily overhead can make or break an excavation company.Why It Matters:If you run an excavation, land clearing, or site work business, this episode shows how culture, systems, and financial discipline determine whether your company scales—or collapses.Links:➡️ Visit JC Property Professionals' website – Follow John Seamans excavation journey. www.jcpropertyprofessionals.com➡️ Shop Attachments at Skid Steer Nation: https://skidsteernation.com/ – “Build your business with the right attachments.”➡️ Marketing Help at Throttled Up: https://www.getthrottledup.com – “Marketing built for contractors.

At the beginning of the year, cartoonists Dave Kellett and Brad Guigar made their predictions for the coming year — and set goals for themselves. Now, as the year comes to a close, it's the brutally honest follow-up episode where they grade themselves — and sometimes discover that Past-Brad and Past-Dave were wildly optimistic. Or deluded. Or both.2025 PREDICTIONSDAVE: Business planning for cartoonists is gonna be filled with a lot of anxiety. Trump will be a chaos agent.BRAD: the “winners” of 2025 will be the cartoonists and businesses that help people *deal* with anxiety.DAVE: Bluesky will be at 50M users by the end of the year (we were at 23M when he made that prediction)BRAD: Substack: will gain in prominence. They're going to have a user base in the same league as Patreon, Kickstarter, or Twitter.DAVE: “We will all be playing reactionary, whack-a-mole with our life decisions in the first two years of the Trump administration.”BRAD: AI will start to gain a foothold among writers and artists, as an assistant to their writing or their process or their brainstorming. Dave concurred.

===== MDJ Script/ Top Stories for November 21st Publish Date: November 21st Commercial: From the BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast. Today is Friday, November 21st and Happy Birthday to Stan The Man Musial I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Cobb targets millions in federal funds to counter drones, boost World Cup security Smyrna denies five-story apartment building Interrogation videos highlight third day of trial for man accused of killing Acworth neighbors Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on rice All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! BREAK: INGLES 10 STORY 1: Cobb targets millions in federal funds to counter drones, boost World Cup security Next summer, Cobb County will play host to international soccer teams prepping for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, one of the biggest sporting events ever. With Atlanta set to host eight matches at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Cobb will handle training, transportation, and fan events. But with that comes challenges—crowds, security, and logistics. To prepare, county officials are asking for Homeland Security grants to boost safety measures, including $7.5–$12 million for drone detection tech. Training sites? Atlanta United’s grounds in Marietta, KSU’s Fifth Third Stadium, and possibly Pace Academy. “The more popular the team, the bigger the crowds,” said Cobb EMA Director Cassie Mazloom. STORY 2: Smyrna denies five-story apartment building The Smyrna City Council shot down a rezoning request for a 250-unit apartment complex this week, with a 5-2 vote against the proposal. Wood Partners South Acquisitions LLC had pitched a five-story mixed-use development on 6.7 acres along Highlands Parkway, near Technology Court. The plan included 250 apartments—mostly one- and two-bedroom units—plus retail space, a pool, and a courtyard. Councilwoman Latonia Hines acknowledged the project’s quality but questioned the location. “It’s a great development—just not here,” she said. The Planning Board and city staff had already recommended denial, citing conflicts with the area’s industrial zoning. STORY 3: Interrogation videos highlight third day of trial for man accused of killing Acworth neighbors On the third day of Matthew Lanz’s murder trial, the defense finally had its turn. Lanz, now 26, sat quietly in a green jumpsuit, his hair unkempt, his face hidden behind a scruffy beard. Prosecutors played interrogation videos from 2021, where Lanz, then 22, denied killing his neighbors, Justin and Amber Hicks. “I didn’t murder them,” he said. “Someone murdered them.” The Hicks, both 31, were found shot to death in their home, their two-year-old son unharmed nearby. Lanz is accused of breaking in through a back window and pulling the trigger. The trial, a bench trial at the defense’s request, will hinge on Judge Sonja Brown’s decision. Prosecutors rested their case Wednesday, leaving the defense to decide if Lanz will testify. In one chilling video, Lanz asked police if Amber Hicks had been pregnant. She wasn’t, but his comment left the courtroom uneasy. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info. We’ll be right back. Break: STRAND THEATRE STORY 4: State Senate election appears headed toward runoff It looks like Democrats Jaha Howard and Roger Bruce are headed for a runoff in the special election to fill the state Senate seat vacated by Jason Esteves. Unofficial results show Howard leading with 32.6% of the vote, followed by Bruce at 25.4%. The six-candidate race was a whirlwind, with just over a month to campaign. “We had to gear up in days,” Howard said, calling the campaign a “faith journey.” Bruce, a Capitol veteran with 22 years in the Georgia House, leaned on endorsements from big names like former Gov. Roy Barnes. The runoff is set for Dec. 16. STORY 5: Smyrna limits vape shop locations, approves Tolleson Aquatic Center contract This week, Smyrna’s City Council cracked down on vape shops, unanimously passing an ordinance to define and restrict them. “Right now, they’re just lumped in with general retail,” said Community Development Director Rusty Martin. “This lets us set some boundaries.” The new rules? Vape shops—defined as retailers primarily selling alternative nicotine or vapor products—can’t open within 1,000 feet of another vape shop, schools, or daycares. In other council news, Arrow Waste got the green light (6-1) for a temporary office on Riverview Road, despite concerns about a nearby fuel tank. Also approved: a $16.23M contract for the Tolleson Aquatic Center, set to open in 2027. And now here is Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on rice We’ll have closing comments after this.

Ten years ago, the idea of canned milk powering a fast-growing brand might have seemed far-fetched. And yet, Slate – which recently announced $23 million in fresh funding – has proven just how powerful a novel concept can be. What can CPG founders – and the industry at large – learn from its rise? The hosts also look back on an unforgettable meetup in San Francisco, where industry veterans, insiders, and ambitious early-stage founders came together in a high-energy atmosphere. Show notes: 0:25: SpearsTok. S.F. Straightaway. Soaring Slate. Aggressive Snacks & Sprinkles. — The show kicks off with banter about AI job titles and algorithm-driven social media feeds, before the hosts reflect on the energy of Taste Radio's recent San Francisco meetup and how the event fostered valuable industry connections and spotlighted emerging brands. They also preview the show's London meetup on October 2 as well as BevNET's Live events in December. The hosts then turn their attention to a $23M funding round for milk-based protein beverage platform Slate, which sparked a deeper conversation about brand evolution, product positioning and the importance of timing in industry success. They also discuss a plant-based meat snack brand with “aggressive” branding. Ray highlights Sprinkles' new cupcake bites, John gulps Zico's organic coconut water, Mike touts THC and turmeric drinks and Jacqui spotlights an innovative CPG brand designed for women.

Nick shares how he went from starting his first business during university to exiting two companies for a combined $47M. He talks about building Security Colony to give small businesses access to enterprise-grade tools, the importance of storytelling in marketing, and creating a strong, values-driven culture.
