With Mike Levy out, tech editors Alvin Holbrook and Josh Ross take over the Velo podcast to unpack some of the biggest stories in cycling right now, including one bike that calls itself the lightest bike in the world, and another that calls itself the fastest in the world. Big day. Of course, we had to start with the news. Specialized just busted $1.5 million worth of counterfeit gear with help from AliExpress and the Chinese police. So why now? And what does this bust mean for cycling gear? Spoiler: probably not much. Campagnolo is in a bit of a financial crisis, reportedly having laid off 40 percent of its workforce and lost 24 million euros over the last few years. There is hope yet, though. We discuss why. Then it's time for bike reviews. Josh breaks down the XDS X-Lab RT-9, the lightest disc brake road bike you can buy, at just 550 grams. It's a super light frame with some spec quirks, and nearly impossible to find in the US. Finally, we discuss the Factor One review, a bike that makes some heady claims and has the performance to back it up. But the aero shaping isn't the most interesting part of the bike: it's the geometry. Further reading: -We Rode the ‘Fastest UCI-Legal Bike Ever Made.'

If you're tired of hearing “just spend 1–3% of revenue on marketing” and hoping it works out, this episode is for you. Spencer breaks down how to actually reverse-engineer your marketing budget from your revenue goal, walking step-by-step from target revenue → projects → meetings → leads → dollars invested. You'll learn how to decide whether you should be spending 3%, 5%, or even more based on your growth goals, average project size, and margins—instead of guessing or copying what your peer group is doing. If you want to hit $4M, $6M, or beyond with intention (not luck), this conversation will show you how to set a budget that matches the growth you're chasing.

In today's episode, I'm sharing a full behind-the-scenes recap of the weekend I led breathwork and meditation at a celebrity charity event; an experience that stretched me, expanded me, and reminded me how powerful identity work truly is. From how the opportunity landed, to the hilarious, chaotic, and totally magical moments that unfolded, this episode is such a beautiful reminder that your next level rarely shows up the way you expect… and always arrives right on time. If you've been calling in bigger rooms, aligned visibility, or proof that your work matters beyond the online space, this conversation is going to light you up.Here's what we drop into inside this episode:How the opportunity unfolded (and why it had nothing to do with followers or “being discovered”)The mindset and identity shifts that helped me walk into a celebrity event with full confidenceThe real story behind why I said yes — even though it wasn't a paid gigThe wild timing of the week, from childcare chaos to last-minute prepThe moment during breathwork where I felt myself jump timelinesA funny story about unknowingly sitting next to a celebrity two nights in a rowWhat witnessing a $1.6M fundraising night activated in my bigger visionThe unexpected ripple effects that showed up the second I got homeTake this episode with you as a reminder that your identity creates your opportunities - and that the more you trust who you're becoming, the more life will meet you with aligned expansion.

In this episode, John Wilson is on-site in Chicago with Aizik Zimerman, owner of J.Blanton Plumbing, to break down how one of the fastest-growing plumbing companies in the country built a sewer and drain growth engine. Since buying the $6M Jay Blanton business at the end of 2022, Aizik has scaled it to ~$25M this year and a $30M run rate — and nearly half that growth is coming from sewers. They unpack the investments, the operational build-out, and the marketing + sales system that turned trenchless lining into a repeatable, high-volume profit center. Aizik shares the exact playbook behind his “Unclogs for Dogs” offer, why they send salespeople with cameras first (no junior drain tech flip), and how they price lining as the cheaper alternative to excavation to beat inertia and win the market. If you're trying to add $5–$10M of revenue through drains, improve close rates, or build a trenchless division that actually scales, this episode is a must-listen.What You'll LearnThe 2022 → 2025 growth story: $6M to $25M+ and what changed operationallyWhy Aizik bet big on sewers while competitors stayed HVAC-heavyThe economics of lining vs. digging: pricing, margins, and why “cheaper lining” winsHow a $1M+ CapEx investment (UV curing trailers, jetting, prep teams) unlocked volume
James Anderson, CEO of Guanajuato Silver (TSX.V:GSVR – OTCQX:GSVRF), joins me to highlight their recently announced transformational acquisition of the Bolanitos Gold-Silver Mine from Endeavour Silver, and to review the key takeaways from Q3 2025 operations and financials. We also end the discussion getting his technical outlook on the recent price action, and supply/demand fundamentals for silver. On November 24th Guanajuato Silver announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement to acquire the Bolanitos gold-silver located in Guanajuato, Mexico, from Endeavour Silver Corp. (TSX:EDR) for total consideration of up to US$50 million, consisting of (i) upfront consideration at closing of US$40, which is comprised of US$30 million in cash and US$10 million of Guanajuato Silver common at a deemed price of US$0.2709413 (Cdn$0.3815) per share. (ii) In addition to the Upfront Consideration, Guanajuato Silver will make two contingent payments to Endeavour, each being US$5 million, upon achieving production of two million ounces of silver-equivalent and four million ounces of silver-equivalent, respectively. Each Contingent Payment will be satisfied 50% in cash and 50% in Guanajuato Shares. Bolanitos Acquisition Highlights Bolanitos will be Guanajuato Silver's 5th producing precious metals mine in Mexico. Upon the completion of the Transaction, the Company will operate three primary silver mines (Topia, Valenciana, and El Cubo) and two primary gold mines (Bolanitos and San Ignacio). 2024 Production at Bolanitos totaled 2,471,027 silver-equivalent (AgEq) ounces from 427,646 tonnes grading 39 g/t silver and 1.98 g/t gold for 452,627 ounces of silver and 25,230 ounces of gold. Silver and gold recoveries were 84.4% and 92.7% respectively. AgEq calculated at 80:1 silver to gold ratio (see Endeavour MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2024). The acquisition of Bolanitos significantly increases Guanajuato Silver's resource base, adding in approximately 25 million silver equivalent ounces. The incorporation of the San Ignacio Mine into the Bolanitos Mines Complex is expected to rapidly generate improved economics and expanded mine life; mineralized material mined at San Ignacio will now be transported to the nearby 1,600 tonnes per day Bolanitos flotation plant; as Bolanitos and San Ignacio are contiguous to one another, this is expected to dramatically reduce transportation costs and increase utilization at the Bolanitos mill. The Transaction also includes the acquisition of the historic Cebada mine, which is located contiguous and to the north of theCompany's Valenciana Mines Complex (VMC). The Company intends to reactivate Cebada, which is currently on care and maintenance, as an important exploration and development project. Selected Q3 2025 Operational and Financial Highlights: Working capital improved over the quarter by $11.3M or 168% compared to Q2; working capital for Q3 2025 was $4.6M compared to negative $6.7M in Q2 2025. The Company reported positive operating cash flows of $3,065,567 for the first nine months of 2025; in Q3 the Company generated positive cash flow from mining operations of $712,271 with realized metal prices of $39.03 for Silver and $3,441 for gold. Production for the quarter of 457,525 silver-equivalent ounces (AgEq) comprising 245,369 ounces of silver, 2,025 ounces of gold, 597,269 pounds of lead and 741,595 pounds of zinc. Silver equivalents are calculated using an 87.70:1 (Ag/Au), 0.02:1 (Ag/Pb) and 0.03:1 (Ag/Zn) ratio for Q3 2025. Increased capital expenditures over the quarter are expected to generate improved efficiencies into 2026. Capital expenditures were 97% higher in Q3 over Q2. The investments included additions to the mining fleet, relining of Mill 3 at El Cubo, continued work to install a Falcon gravity concentrator at the Topia plant designed to further increase gold recoveries in concentrates, pre-development work at Pinguico, and dewatering programs at both Valenciana and El Cubo. Wrapping up James and I discuss the continued bullish technical setup in the silver price, closing this last Friday at an all-time high, and breaking well above long-term resistance at $50, and even more intermediate-term resistance around $54. James lays out the fundamental supply/demand environment for silver, and why the framework is there to keep seeing elevated silver prices moving forward. James also gives listeners an update on the gold:silver ratio, putting current pricing in the context of historical patterns.

On today's show we are looking at what I consider to be one of the most ridiculous market forecasts from what should be a respectable institution.The IEA which is based in Paris issued an updated demand model in the run up to the UN's annual climate change talks, this year scheduled to take place in Brazil. I believe it is important to understand energy markets, even as a real estate investor. It's important because energy is the economy. You cannot have a unit of economic output without a corresponding unit of energy being consumed somewhere in the world. These two have been inextricably intertwined throughout history. The problem with the IEA line of thinking is that it looks at oil and gas consumption without considering oil and gas supply. Supply and demand cannot be unbalanced for more than a few months. The oil industry only holds about 40 days of supply in inventory worldwide. So if supply and demand fall out of balance, prices will swing considerably which will ultimately affect demand. In the short term demand is relatively inelastic with price. You're not about to drive 3/4 of the way to work if the price of gas goes up by 1/3. But over time, capital decisions are made based on the economic model associated with each energy source. The US hit peak oil supply this year. That means the cost and effort to extract a barrel of oil from the ground is going to go up from here. The IEA report puts the global daily consumption of oil at around 100M barrels per day. Under the “Current Policies Scenario,” which is based on existing policy and regulations, global demand rises to 105 million barrels a day in 2035 and 113 million barrels a day in 2050, from 100 million barrels a day last year, mainly driven by petrochemical feedstocks and aviation.There are a few problems with this analysis. The first is that global oil consumption is already 104.6M barrels per day now in 2025 and the IEA is saying that it's going to take another decade to reach that demand.The biggest problem is that their model puts too much emphasis on government policy as the primary driving force affecting oil demand. There is oil on paper and then there is oil in the tank. These are not the same. Just because someone in Washington or Paris or London issues a policy statement about oil consumption you have to remember that the decision to consume oil consists of billions of micro decisions.-----------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:**

With $382 billion in cash equivalents, Berkshire needs assets that can be quickly deployed for acquisitions, buybacks, or opportunities without price volatility.

Soybeans are all over the headlines right now but you might not realize they drive American ag—and North Carolina is a prime case study. Charles Hall, Executive Director of the North Carolina Soybean Producers Association, returns to break down what's actually moving the market this year: tight farm margins, a potential price rally that hasn't materialized, and a flood of supply with limited in-state storage. We cover why 75% of NC beans are rated good-to-excellent yet profitability remains elusive, how a 1.6M-acre crop meets constrained crush capacity after an ADM plant closure, and why six-hour delivery lines are more than an inconvenience—they're a cost center. Hall explains China's stop-start purchases, Brazil's rapid expansion (and quality trade-offs), and how shifting tariffs hit farmers twice—at the elevator and on input invoices. We dig into weed resistance, the dicamba drift debate, and why new chemistries take ~20 years to clear regulation. On the opportunity side: renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel are reshaping crush margins by pulling harder on oil than meal. We also hit risk management wins (higher reference prices, improved crop insurance) and why the farm “safety net” still hangs inches above concrete. If you own rural land, lease ground, or care about U.S. food and fuel security, this episode lays out the stakes—straight. Key Takeaways Margins are thin: Inputs up, prices not keeping pace; profitability remains “right on the bubble.” Big crop, tight logistics: ~1.6M acres in NC; ~75% rated good/excellent; limited storage and recent crush capacity loss create delivery bottlenecks. China & tariffs: New-crop U.S. purchases lag; tariff volatility depresses demand and raises input costs (equipment, herbicides, nutrients). Brazil vs. U.S.: Brazil gained China share post-2018; quality/logistics trade-offs vs. NC's local hog & poultry demand. Weed resistance is constant: Fewer approved chemistries, dicamba drift concerns; regulatory timelines are long. Energy demand shift: Renewable diesel/SAF increasingly drive crush margins via soy oil, not just meal. Risk management: Higher soy reference prices and crop insurance tweaks help, but the “safety net” is still low.

Glenn Beck Exposes No Kings Plot: This IS a Color Revolution! A new wave of No Kings protests kicked off across the country on October 18. Organizers claimed a whopping seven million people spontaneously rallied to protest President Trump's authoritarian policies. While many mocked white-haired Boomers holding absurd signs, the strategists behind color revolutions know the precise percentage of population involvement needed for a successful coup — and they're inching closer to that goal on American soil. Glenn Beck and renowned researcher Peter Schweizer trace the shadowy multimillion-dollar funding behind No Kings, revealing the who's who in left-wing activism: Tides, Soros, Rockefeller, Ford, Buffett, and Arabella. Peter's team at Government Accountability Institute uncovered a network infrastructure bigger than No Kings designed to create social destabilization. The evidence trail is there, but can Trump's FBI and DOJ stop the revolutionaries before it's too late?

LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ In this raw Dropping Bombs episode, Justin Georgopoulos—founder of Trade Launch—shows how he went from butcher-shop shifts to a $6M+ painting company and a seven-figure-a-month GC by 27. He hands you the blueprint most contractors ignore: own demand with simple ads + door-knocking, present quotes at the kitchen table (not by email), price with production standards, and use AI renderings on the spot so buyers see the result and say yes. Most contractors lose deals by emailing quotes. This is how you stop working in the business and start running an asset built on sales, systems, and discipline. Then he gets ruthless about scale: train estimators who close $2–4M/yr, stack selfie-style Facebook ads with canvassing, pre-qual hard, and run tight SOPs/KPIs so jobs deliver without you. You're not a roofer, painter, or GC—you're a sales & marketing machine that happens to build world-class work. If you're stuck on the tools, this is your wake-up call to leverage AI, own the demand, build the machine, and cash out big.
