In this episode of Better Call Daddy, host Reena Friedman Watts sits down with Kiko Zang, business executive, tech founder, and opinion leader building human-centric consumer products. Kiko is the Founder & CEO of Chomp, a social game that rewards honesty instead of punishing it and she's on a mission to fix what she calls the "performative internet." Kiko opens up about her path from boarding school in China to New Zealand and the United States, the anti-authoritarian streak she carried as a kid, and the long road to understanding her own identity across cultures. The conversation gets candid as she discusses her experience with open relationships and how it reshaped her views on love, trust, kindness, and loyalty then turns to the bigger picture: why social media rewards performance over authenticity, why women in particular self-censor online, and why honest human belief may be the scarcest, most valuable data in the age of AI. Kiko also shares her founder journey from COO at Orca (one of Solana's largest decentralized exchanges, where she helped raise $19M and grow the platform to $1B+ in 24-hour trading volume) to building Chomp, which drew 50,000 beta users sharing millions of honest answers and raised $3.6M from backers including BlueYard, JSquare, and Accomplice placing her among the 2% of female-led startups to raise venture capital. Chomp launches on iOS in 2026. Equal parts personal memoir and founder story, this episode covers identity, relationships, resilience, the loneliness epidemic, the funding gap for female founders, and what it takes to build something real in a "dead internet" full of bots and AI slop. Keywords: Kiko Zang, boarding school identity, open relationships podcast, cultural identity, female tech founder, women in venture capital, social media and authenticity, dead internet theory, Chomp app, Solana Orca DEX, honest opinions app, read the room, loneliness epidemic, Better Call Daddy podcast, Reena Friedman Watts

After 37 years advising physicians, Kevin Sullivan has seen a dangerous pattern: doctors with impressive net worth who never learn to turn it into real income.

The episode identifies an acute shift in liability and accountability across the software and AI supply chain, where risk increasingly moves from vendors to service providers and operators. This dynamic is illustrated through incomplete vendor patches, AI tool output, and changing regulatory structures. Companies like N-able experienced authentication bypass flaws in widely used remote monitoring platforms, while industry-standard software licenses continue to disclaim warranties and cap or exclude liability, leaving providers responsible for the consequences. A key development is N-able's N-central authentication flaw, wherein a patch issued for an earlier vulnerability proved incomplete according to the Federal Vulnerability Database, enabling attackers to exploit the same vector. The finalized fix arrived days after exploitation began, but all previous builds — including those labeled patched — remained exposed. Simultaneously, research from Anthropic and disclosures by OpenAI revealed AI models acting outside intended boundaries, with incident response often lagging behind real-world impact. Notably, neither affected vendor assumed material liability, and disclosure of the incidents was voluntary, not compelled by contract or regulation. Meanwhile, IBM's annual cost of data breach report found AI-driven attacks up 56% with average breach costs nearing $6M, further emphasizing financial exposure. These incidents exemplify a structural trend: vendors disclaim output, while client agreements with IT providers warrant monitoring, maintenance, and remediation, resulting in providers accepting risk not assumed upstream. Regulatory responses differ by geography — in the U.S., CISA's only binding obligation was for operators to remediate vulnerabilities by a set deadline, not for vendors to prevent or report them. The EU's forthcoming Cyber Resilience Act will require reporting of exploited vulnerabilities within 24 hours and is expanding product liability to software, but these rules benefit consumers and regulators rather than business buyers and still stop short of assigning financial obligations to vendors. The operational effect for MSPs and IT service providers is increased contract risk, as provider promises to clients typically outpace the limited, warranty-free commitments of vendors. The rate and scope of vulnerabilities, amplified by AI-driven development and remediation, add volume and complexity without increasing the rate of effective outcomes. Providers are advised to reconcile their own service agreements with the actual commitments of software suppliers, clarify for clients where their true responsibilities lie, and prepare for a procurement environment where scrutiny of vendor warranties becomes the norm rather than the exception. 00:00 The Ones Who Patched Got Hit 04:16 Sold As Is, All The Way Down 08:02 The Only Enforceable Promise 11:47 Why Do We Care?  Supported by:  Pax8 LogMeIn

Guest: JB Anderton of the Doctor Who Gives a F#! podcast joins John and Jim, as he does for every multi-Doctor story, to make sense of the un-make-sense-able. Note: This is a hiatus episode from our Wilderness Years coverage, released early on the Patreon feed and arriving on the main feed August 9th to celebrate Doctor Who Podcast Day. A warm welcome to everyone joining us for the occasion! Love the podcast? Consider joining us on Patreon for early access, exclusive episodes, and the option to commission your own Doctor Who story. Show Notes: For the show's 30th anniversary in 1993, the BBC gave Doctor Who fans a two-part, 3D, charity crossover with EastEnders in which the Rani traps the Doctor's incarnations in a time loop and scrambles Doctors and companions together at random. It is, by common agreement among the hosts, the Doctor Who equivalent of the Star Wars Holiday Special—not to be taken remotely seriously, but a genuine curiosity worth seeing at least once, if only because it's one more chance to watch these beloved actors play these beloved characters. How We Even Got Here: The Ghost of The Dark Dimension Before there was Dimensions in Time, there was The Dark Dimension—an ambitious, Tom Baker-centered 30th-anniversary feature that collapsed months before it would have aired. The hosts (with JB drawing on John Pertwee's own memoir) untangle the competing accounts of what happened: budget mismanagement, pressure from the American rights holders, and a script that the other surviving Doctors felt reduced them to walk-on cameos. What emerged instead was a bargain-basement Children in Need special built on a standing EastEnders set, produced by John Nathan-Turner as if it were a real episode (production code and all), and shot around the soap's schedule for no fee. A Cast List That Astonishes—and the Gaps That Intrigue The hosts marvel at the sheer roll call of returning Doctors and companions, puzzle over who's conspicuously absent, and confront the parade of EastEnders faces that leaves them defaulting to "if I don't recognize them, they must be from the soap." There's the interactive phone-in twist that raised a small fortune for charity, the Noel Edmonds framing device, the rave-version theme, and Kate O'Mara gamely chewing the scenery as the third choice for the villain. Everybody's In Character (With Two Very Notable Exceptions) A running thread: nearly everyone slips back into their roles with real commitment—even in three seconds of screen time—which makes the two who don't stand out all the more. The hosts have plenty to say about a phoned-in performance from a certain fan-favorite Doctor reading off cue cards in a sound booth, and a beloved companion stranded in a costume and a barrage of technobabble that left one host cold (with a fair hearing of the very human, very practical reasons behind the wardrobe choice). Along the way: Susan's grandfather problem, the disembodied busts of two late Doctors, a monorail glimpsed in the background, and the eternal question of why the Seventh Doctor hauls all his equipment outside the TARDIS. A Menagerie Missing Its Most Famous Monster Why are there no Daleks among the Rani's captured specimens? The hosts dig into the rights tangle behind their absence—and what it might mean for the show's future as Doctor Who itself heads to tender in 2026. The Canonical Silver Linings Amid the chaos, the hosts find the moments worth preserving: the only on-screen meeting of the Sixth Doctor and the Brigadier, and Nicholas Courtney's Brigadier arriving by helicopter—giving the actor, if you squint, a claim to having worked with all seven classic Doctors. Production Details: Broadcast: November 26–27, 1993 (across Children in Need and the Noel Edmonds show) Production Code: 7R Format: Two parts, presented in 3D, with an interactive phone-in ending Villain: The Rani (Kate O'Mara, the third choice after two others) Setting/Crossover: EastEnders' Albert Square Predecessor Project: The Dark Dimension (cancelled 30th-anniversary feature) Charity: Raised over £100,000 for Children in Need on the phone-in alone 13.8M (part one), 13.6M (part two) — inflated by the EastEnders crossover Coming Up Next: Monday (Patreon Exclusive 183): A disco version of the theme, the Memory TARDIS, a look back at the first six Doctors, and the comics "The Grief" and "Ravens."

It's Fighting Back With an Army of Immunity LawsMore than a decade after investigations found that Exxon Mobil had known about the dangers of global warming since the 1970s but publicly downplayed the threat, lawsuits against oil companies have proliferated. There are nearly 40 of these cases pending across the countryIn the meantime, the industry has been mobilizing a counterattack against the lawsuits with the help of the Trump administration and Republican politicians.Republicans are trying to pass laws to grant oil majors immunity to these kinds of lawsuits, with success in several states so far.Utah, Iowa, Tennessee, Oklahoma, and Louisiana have recently signed laws shielding fossil fuel companies from lawsuits related to greenhouse gas emissionsOil executives have also gotten help from the federal government, following an executive order from President Donald Trump last year directing the attorney general to prioritize blocking climate lawsuits by states.This May, the Justice Department responded to Minnesota's climate lawsuit against Big Oil with a lawsuit of its own, just as the state's case was moving into the discovery phase. It said Minnesota was undermining “American energy dominance” and attempting to regulate greenhouse gases, which should fall under the purview of federal law—echoing the oil industry's well-known argument.Elon Musk Is Quietly Turning to This Fossil Fuel to Power His AI AmbitionsSam Altman Announces That the Singularity Has Arrived: a hypothetical future point in time when technological growth becomes autonomous, uncontrollable, and irreversible, fundamentally transforming human civilization“We are now, like, in the singularity ...

In this episode, Jason and Jordan sit down with Neil Glatt of Neil Glatt Sales and Strategy for a deep dive into what it really takes to build a high-performing sales engine in the green industry. Neil shares his journey from selling Boy Scout popcorn door-to-door to helping grow a snow and landscape company from a single truck to $42M in annual revenue, and how that experience shaped his approach to B2B sales, process design, and scalable growth. The conversation covers the difference between B2B and residential sales, why most personality tests fail at predicting sales success, and how Neil uses sales-specific assessments to identify true "all-star" salespeople—including traits like money tolerance, handling rejection, and sales DNA. Jason and Jordan open up about their own businesses' growth spurts and slowdowns—from hurricane-fueled demand and drought-driven slumps to the challenges of hiring sales reps without overloading operations—and Neil unpacks concepts like fractional sales management, designing a compensation structure that doesn't cap top performers, and building a sustainable pipeline through relationships and referrals. Whether you're trying to go from $3M to $6M, hire your first salesperson, or finally get serious about commercial work and sales leadership, this episode gives you a clear, real-world look at how to build a sales system that actually scales.

Maya Kadouri gets rental inquiries every couple of days on her sales listings. Not from buyers. From potential tenants. Trophy $10M+ owners asking "would the seller be open to just renting it?" That's what a rental exhaustion feeding frenzy looks like in Manhattan's luxury market in mid-2026. And it's just one of the signals Maya is seeing that the market is shifting under everyone's feet. "It's not about the number. It's about the trust. If you didn't do the early work of establishing that, the hard conversations later are a lot harder." Noah Rosenblatt and John Walkup sit down with Maya Kadouri, Douglas Elliman broker, top 3% at Elliman, 15-year veteran with over $2 billion in career residential sales, and former Director of Sales at The Belnord (yes, the "Only Murders in the Building" building). We get into the market shift she's seeing right now, how the pied-à-terre tax is quietly reshaping buyer behavior, the way AI is changing every consumer conversation, and the origin story that shaped her entire approach. What you'll learn: The market just shifted from trophy to $2-6M. Q1 and Q2 were carried by $10M+ apartments. The latest Olshan Report: 20 of 29 sales under $6M, only ONE trophy sale recorded. Maya's read on what's driving it. Luxury rental exhaustion is now real. Tenant inquiries on sales listings every couple of days. Prices running way above market. A feeding frenzy at the top of the market that mirrors what's been happening in the rental market all year. The pied-à-terre tax is changing behavior three ways. Some buyers pause their search. Some pull out of active deals. Some pivot to under $5M to sit below the threshold. The industry is still absorbing the two-phase rollout. Foreign buyers now show up with ChatGPT comp reports. The AI-vs-broker challenge is real, especially with international buyers. Maya's approach: use AI to check what buyers are hearing, then advise around what the model misses. It's an assistant, not a replacement. How Maya actually wins listings. Not the number. Not the marketing plan. Trust. Established early. So when the hard price conversation comes, and it always does, the seller takes your lead. The origin story that shaped everything. Maya got into real estate because she had a bad experience with a lender and thought consumers deserved a better-informed, more transparent advisor. That framing runs through her entire practice. The Only Murders in the Building effect. As former Director of Sales at The Belnord, Maya saw the show pull young buyers into pre-war NYC. Kids watching Hulu were the ones telling their parents to book showings. Ties directly into the co-op market comeback. The pre-war co-op comeback is happening. The luxury co-op market recently outpaced luxury condos. Value, inventory tightness, and pre-war aesthetic appeal are rotating this segment back to relevance.

Rene Thomas Folse, JD, Ph.D. is the host for this edition which reports on the following news stories: Appellate Court Reverses WCAB and Approves Policy Cancellation. Statute of Limitations Applies After Carriers Unequivocal Claim Denial. California Overhauls Subsequent Injuries Benefits Trust Fund. Rand Reports on SB 1160 Effectiveness on UR and Medical Treatment. CMS Begins Auditing Carrier Section 111 Records. Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Resolves Price Fixing Case for $29.6M. FBI's Most Wanted Healthcare Fraudster List Fugitive Arrested. Generative AI Tools Are Reshaping Insurance Fraud Risks.

Dr. Mark Costes presents the 2026 Golden Rhino Award case studies, honoring two standout transformations: Dr. Blake Hamlin and Dr. Collin Myrick, both UT Houston grads who joined DSI feeling successful but stuck and isolated. He walks through their application letters and financial scorecards, showing how each more than tripled their practices in three years—Hamlin from $1.6M to $5.37M, and Myrick from $2.2M to nearly $10M—largely by clarifying their model and vision before scaling. The two then join Costes on stage to unpack how they did it. Hamlin credits a relentless focus on a few core KPIs (reappointment rate, answering every call) and a marketing breakthrough, scaling spend from $5,000 to $45,000-plus a month to multiply new patients while holding overhead steady. Myrick points to vision, mission, and core values as his foundation, plus finding his integrator, Darcy, which freed him to lead as a CEO and say yes to rapid multi-location expansion across his rural Florida hometown.

Did you know July 29th is National Chicken Wing Day?The holiday was first proclaimed in 1977 by the mayor of Buffalo, New York, the city widely recognized as the birthplace of the Buffalo wing. Since then, chicken wings have become a staple at everything from game nights and family cookouts to birthday parties and late-night cravings.To celebrate, many popular restaurants are offering special deals on wings, including Wingstop, Applebee's, Dave & Buster's, 7-Eleven, and Popeyes. Whether you like traditional bone-in wings or boneless, it's a great day to enjoy one of America's favorite comfort foods.But here on Cooking With Positivity, I want to take the conversation a step further.Wings bring people together. Think about all the memories we've made over a basket of wings—watching the big game, hanging out with friends, celebrating birthdays, or simply enjoying a meal with family. Sometimes it's not just about the food—it's about the fellowship around the table.So here's today's Host Chat:

Problems Scale Faster Than Revenue. Here Is the Fix with Nick Avaria   Find Rocky Lalvani @ www.ProfitComesFirst.com  or email him at rocky@profitcomesfirst.com Make more, work less video: https://youtu.be/   You hired people so you could step back. Instead, you are more in the weeds than before, the business feels harder to run than it did at half the size, and profit is somehow lower despite the growth. That is not a people problem. That is the missing middle, and it has a structure, a cost, and a fix. Nick Avaria has bought and sold seven agencies, all profitably. He has watched founders hit this wall time after time at $3M, $5M, even $8M. And in this episode, he breaks down exactly why growth makes things worse before they get better, and what to do about it in the right order.   In This Episode: Why treating profit as a leftover instead of a design choice is the most expensive mistake in the $2M to $10M range The founder's premium: why you close sales at 10 to 20% higher rates than any salesperson you hire, and why delegating sales too early destroys revenue The missing middle: why scaling without a management layer sends businesses backward from $12M to $6M and costs 12 to 18 months to recover The specific order to replace yourself in your own business (and why most founders get it backwards) Why marketing is the hardest function to hand off and what a 3 to 9-month handoff really looks like Why the best executives do not work for founders, and what it takes to become the kind of leader they will work for AI as a win-more button: why it amplifies great people and makes mediocre work worse at speed   Key Takeaways: Profit must be designed in at the start. It is never a leftover. Your close rate as the founder is 10 to 20% higher than any professional salesperson you hire. That gap has a dollar value. Problems scale faster than revenue. A structural flaw at $2M is more expensive at $4M and potentially catastrophic at $8M. The delegation order: admin first, delivery second, marketing third, sales fourth, leadership last. The best managers and executives will not work for you while you are still operating as a founder. That shift is on you.   About Nick Avaria: Nick is a serial agency entrepreneur who has scaled multiple companies to 7- and 8-figure success, buying and selling seven agencies along the way. With firsthand experience merging leadership teams and cultures, he now helps agency owners escape burnout and build highly profitable businesses that empower their teams and clients—without sacrificing their lives in the process. Still in the trenches as an agency owner himself, Nick brings real-world insights on scaling, leadership, founder burnout, and creating systems for sustainable growth.   Links: Website: http://www.agencyacquisitions.io    LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickavaria/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nick_avaria/   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AgencyAcquisitions   Profit Blueprint Calculator I Profit Comes First: https://lp.profitcomesfirst.com/profitblueprintcalc-page   Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@profitanswerman Sign up to be notified when the next cohort of the Profit First Experience Course is available!

In this episode, I'm calling out the thing nobody says out loud: your major gift program isn't really a program. The gifts come in, but you can't predict them. Your board member lands a home run, then goes quiet. Your ED holds all the relationships in their head, and when they leave, the revenue leaves with them. I've lived this, and I know you have too.I start by naming what I call the invisible revenue gap: the difference between what your list should be raising and what it actually raises. It's costing mid-sized nonprofits hundreds of thousands a year while the financials look perfectly fine on the surface, and it's the thing that wakes EDs up at 4 AM in a cold sweat.Then I get into the diagnosis. You're not bad at fundraising. You're not lazy or unsophisticated. You're un-infrastructured. You know what to do, you just don't have a system to do it consistently, in the right order, every time. I break down why the old five-stage model we all inherited runs on fragile relationships and hope, and why it falls apart with today's busier, more skeptical donors.From there, I walk through what an actual system looks like: the six stages of the Engagement Fundraising Operating System, the real role of your board as door openers (12 board members, one intro each per quarter, that's 48 new prospects a year, the math maths), and the qualification conversation that stops you from chasing people who were never going to give. I also share results from a $6M client who went from 15 prospects to 47 and doubled her close rate. Not by finding richer donors. By building infrastructure.If every quarter feels like crossing your fingers, this one's for you.Important Links:My Big Ask Gifts Program:⁠⁠ https://go.rheawong.com/big-ask-gifts-program⁠⁠My Book, Get That Money Honey:⁠⁠ https://go.rheawong.com/get-that-money-honey⁠⁠My Newsletter:⁠⁠ https://www.rheawong.com/⁠⁠

In the third hour of Dover and Cecil,  the guys start the hour by responding to our morning show. Did Cecil suggest that Broncos ownership stripped Sean Payton of his play-calling responsibilities? What did Cecil really say, and what likely led Sean to give Davis Webb a shot at calling the plays? The ownership group didn’t move without conversations with Sean, so what did those sound like and how will the Broncos improve with Webb? With training camp on the horizon, we’ve been asking one big question every day! Can the Broncos establish an offensive identity this year? Will they be a more balanced team, lean more on the run, or keep letting Bo Nix throw the ball? Where can this team get more creative with their play calling? The Nuggets have their camp coming up in August, but nothing has been done with Payton Watson yet! If nothing comes up for Watson, will he sign the Nuggets' 6M qualifying offer? The Rockies have been in a lot of trade rumors. Do we still think it's a good idea to trade Hunter Goodman?

Brandon Robinson opened Tipsy Putt's first location in downtown Sacramento on November 1, 2019. Four months later, the world shut down.He'd already built and sold a multi-state med spa chain. He'd discovered an indoor mini golf bar in Kirkland, Washington on a packed Monday night and written a $150,000 check for a one-page license agreement to bring it to California. Then COVID took the whole thing to zero overnight.This is the story of what he rebuilt — a four-location brand with its ownidentity, roughly 100,000 app downloads, and a fundraising model that turns investors into opening-day customers.Brandon and Mark get into the real numbers: why post-pandemic sites do $3-6M where they used to do $6-10M, why chasing Class A real estate was the expensive lesson, how to structure a raise as an SPV per market instead of selling equity in the parent, and the brutal honest math of angel investing.Then they close on fatherhood, mentorship, and the grandfather who went from 1930s Detroit foster care to one of the top 100 State Farm agents in the country — and why that story is the whole case for supporting veterans in transition.Website: https://tipsyputt.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TipsyPutt/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tipsyputt/YouTube:  @tipsyputt  ______________________________________________________________If this episode inspires you to be part of the movement, and you believe, like me, that entrepreneurs are the answer to our future, message me so we can join forces to support building truly great companies in our region. -Subscribe to my channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCom_​... -  Mark Haney is a serial entrepreneur that has experience growing companies worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

Youth Soccer, the World Cup, and America's Pay-to-Play Problem 6 to 8 Weeks: Perspectives in Sports Medicine Runtime:~23 minutes Episode Summary With the World Cup underway, the hosts ask a controversial question: why isn't the US better at men's soccer, given a talent pool that dwarfs countries like Belgium and Norway? The conversation pivots from there into the real subject of the episode — how America's pay-to-play youth sports system is driving both a talent gap and a youth injury epidemic, especially ACL and overuse injuries in young athletes. Timestamps 00:00 — Intro Welcome and standard disclaimer: discussion is for informational purposes only, not professional medical advice. 00:30 — Why isn't the US better at men's soccer? Framing question for the episode: the US has far more people than countries that regularly outperform it (Belgium, population 11.8M; Norway, population 5.6M), yet can't compete at the same level on the men's side — a contrast with the sustained success of the US women's national team. 02:30 — Setting up the real topic: youth injuries Transition into ACL and overuse injuries in young athletes, particularly young females, and how that connects to the US youth development model. 03:00 — The pay-to-play system How youth sports shifted over the past ~10–25 years from school and community leagues to private club/travel teams. Families now spend as much as $20,000/year on travel soccer and baseball. 05:00 — The numbers behind the industry Youth sports is cited as a ~$40 billion industry. Comparison of costs: a recreational league (e.g., AYSO) runs roughly $140–150/year, while an entry-level travel team runs about $1,700 and an academy-level club team about $3,500 — before uniforms, extra practices, or private coaching. 07:00 — Is this just a soccer problem? Discussion of whether this trend is soccer-specific or affects baseball, basketball, and volleyball too (it's across the board). The disappearance of casual pickup games and rec leagues in favor of organized, paid leagues. 09:00 — US vs. European development models European countries emphasize multi-sport participation and general athleticism (coordination, core strength) over early performance and specialization. Cited participation gap: roughly 90% multi-sport participation in some European countries vs. a steep drop-off in the US. 11:00 — The scholarship reality check The odds of a young athlete earning a college scholarship or going pro are extremely low. Recommendation: decisions about youth sports should center on the child's enjoyment and development, not a scholarship or pro chase. 13:00 — Why specialization raises injury risk Explanation of how single-sport specialization leads to repetitive stress on the same body parts, and how kids aren't developing the balanced strength, coordination, and movement patterns that protect against injury. European academy model contrasted as more balance- and skill-focused. 15:00 — Specialization and injuries at the pro level Early specialization linked to earlier injuries in professional athletes — for example, NBA players who specialized young tearing Achilles tendons earlier in their careers, and a rise in Tommy John (elbow) surgeries among teenage baseball players. Also: level of soccer access is often a financial decision, not a quality/skill decision — elite club access can cost $30,000+/year. 17:00 — Socioeconomic and geographic inequity Access to elite club teams correlates with socioeconomic status and geography. Talented kids in lower-income areas may never be discovered because showcases and elite coaching are gated by cost. 19:00 — The one big change If they could change one thing about the system: delay specialization and actively encourage multi-sport participation, especially early on, to reduce overuse injury risk. Advice for parents on how to guide kids toward a broader athletic foundation. 21:00 — Wrap-up and World Cup predictions Lighter closing segment with picks for the World Cup winner Key Takeaways The US pay-to-play youth sports model filters talent by financial access rather than ability — a likely contributor to underperformance in men's soccer relative to population size. Early single-sport specialization is linked to higher rates of ACL tears and overuse injuries in youth athletes, and earlier injuries in those who go on to play professionally. European development models emphasize multi-sport participation and general athleticism over early specialization and performance metrics. The likelihood of a scholarship or professional career is very low — a useful reframe for parents weighing time and financial investment in club sports. Socioeconomic and geographic barriers likely mean talented young athletes go undiscovered simply due to lack of access.

Joel Friedland calls himself the most risk-averse real estate investor in the United States, and he has the scar tissue to prove it.In 2008 he was carrying $70 million in personal guarantees across 50 buildings. Ten of them were going to have to be sold at a loss. He sat his wife down and told her, and he watched her fall back in her chair. What followed was months of depression he describes without flinching in this conversation. He came out of it with a conclusion most investors never reach: the problem was not real estate, it was the way he was structuring the deals.Today Joel and his team at Brit Properties buy small single-tenant industrial buildings in Chicago, and they buy three out of every four of them with no debt at all. The ceiling is 30% loan-to-value. That boundary is not a strategy so much as a mental health requirement, and he is refreshingly blunt that it costs him upside.He is also one of maybe five syndicators in the country doing it. He does not know who the other four are.This is Joel's second appearance on the show. After the first one, Ed changed how Clark St underwrites deals. That is not a marketing line, it is what happened.What we get into:Why Joel compares over-leveraged real estate investors to gamblers, right down to the part where they hide the risk from their spousesThe 2008 collapse in his own words, and the boundary he set on the other side of itThe buy box: single-tenant only, 7,000 to 30,000 square feet, no flex, no multi-tenant, and specific dock, ceiling-height and parking requirementsHow 20 towns out of 200, and 700 buildings out of 17,000, makes the pipeline small enough to actually work, and why his team still knocks on doors to find dealsThe secret-sauce exit: 77 of Joel's 82 sales went to owner-occupants who pay a premium over cap-rate buyers, not to investorsA live deal he is in the middle of on Stern Avenue, bought for $1.9M with $400K into the rehab, and the neighbor across the street who wants itThe Keebler building: bought for $6M, sold for $17M, a 40% IRR over a 15-year Comcast lease, and why that grand slam required the leverage he now avoidsWhy his 250 investors, averaging roughly $20 million in net worth, are not looking to get rich, and are looking for somewhere that is not the casinoReshoring, tariffs, and the honest math on why manufacturing is not all coming backThe batter who never strikes outLightning round: the mentors (the Podolsky family, and 99-year-old Nate Wagner, who Joel has bought breakfast nearly every Saturday for 15 years), the deal he wants back, the book on his nightstand, and how he defines success.Connect with Joel FriedlandBrit Properties: britproperties.comBook mentioned1929 by Andrew Ross Sorkin: find it on AmazonConnect with Ed Mathews and Clark St CapitalWebsite: clarkst.comNewsletter: Underground InsightsSubmit a deal: clarkst.com/submit-your-dealElevista - Speed as a Service™Elevista Connect is the first AI-powered lead conversion system built for real estate investors.

(DJOW) Follow us on Instagram @pebcakpodcast   Please share this podcast with someone you know!  It helps us grow the podcast and we really appreciate it!   Simple 6 signup link https://simple6.co/r/CFUR98   Starting July 7, every new car sold in the EU must include an infrared camera aimed at the driver's face to detect distraction, with critics warning it's a privacy nightmare in waiting. https://cybernews.com/security/eu-car-camera-monitoring/ https://electrek.co/2026/06/15/chinese-drivers-plastic-heads-fool-tesla-autopilot-camera/ New EU General Safety Regulation mandates in-cabin, driver-facing infrared cameras (Advanced Driver Distraction Warning systems) in all new cars as of July 7, 2026 — with the US following suit by 2027 — and while regulators insist the footage stays local and non-biometric, there's no enforcement detail on what happens if that's violated, fueling fears the data could be harvested or resold given prior scandals over automakers monetizing driver data. Story 2 — $30 Plastic Doll Heads Are Fooling Tesla's Autopilot Camera A cottage industry in China is selling cheap figurine heads that trick Tesla's cabin camera into thinking a distracted driver is paying attention, letting people run FSD/Autopilot hands-off and eyes-off for extended stretches.   Fired Microsoft Engineer Sentenced to 9 Years for $10M Digital Currency Heist A former Microsoft software engineer, fired in 2018, was sentenced to nine years in federal prison for stealing over $10 million in digital gift-card value from the company and laundering it through Bitcoin. https://www.pcmag.com/news/fired-microsoft-software-engineer-sentenced-to-9-years-in-prison A Ukrainian national who worked as a Microsoft contractor-then-employee testing the company's online retail platform from 2016–2018, used his and colleagues' test accounts to steal "currency stored value" (digital gift cards), laundered the proceeds through a Bitcoin mixer to fund a $1.6M waterfront home and $160K car, and was ultimately convicted on 18 federal felony counts and ordered to pay $8.34M in restitution on top of the 9-year sentence.   Meta Lets Anyone Turn Your Public Instagram Photos into AI Images (Now Walked Back) Meta quietly launched "Muse Image," letting anyone @-mention a public Instagram account to generate AI images of that person's likeness with no notification or consent — triggering backlash from SAG-AFTRA and CAA before Meta pulled the feature. https://www.wired.com/story/meta-now-lets-anyone-use-your-instagram-photos-in-ai-images-unless-you-opt-out/ Meta's new Muse Image generator defaulted every public adult Instagram account into an opt-out (not opt-in) system where anyone could tag a profile to generate AI images from their photos with zero notification, prompting SAG-AFTRA and talent agency CAA to publicly demand opt-outs before Meta reversed course on July 10 and pulled the @-mention capability entirely after backlash.   1 in 3 Young Adults Are Living With Their Parents A new FinanceBuzz analysis of Census data finds 33% of 18–34-year-olds now live with their parents, nearing pandemic-era highs, with New Jersey, Connecticut, and California leading the pack. https://financebuzz.com/living-with-parents-data Census-based research shows nearly a third of Americans aged 18–34 (33%) are living at home — a rate that's climbed steadily since the 1960s (22.5%) and is now approaching the 2020 pandemic peak (33.6%) — with expensive states like New Jersey (44.1%), Connecticut (41.3%), and California (39.1%) topping the list, and men 25–34 living at home nearly 1.5x as often as women in the same age range.   Dad Joke of the Week (DJOW)   Find the hosts on LinkedIn: Chris - https://www.linkedin.com/in/chlouie/ Brian - https://www.linkedin.com/in/briandeitch-sase/ Glenn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/glennmedina/ Ben - https://www.linkedin.com/in/benjamincorll/

Dr. Stephen C. Meyer- The Scientific Case for Intelligent Design with Michael Knowles. "Atheists Have A Serious Problem" Michael Knowles & Intelligent Design. Dr. Stephen C. Meyer Stephen C.

Episode: What the YAP Challenge Teaches Us About Trust, Presence, and the Future of Work In this episode, I dive into the phenomenon of Jessie Jean's YAP Challenge—a 30‑day video‑creation program that has taken the creator economy by storm. Her first cohort brought in $1.2M, and the second crossed $6M, all at a price point of $297. I'm not interested in the hype or the mechanics of her launch; I'm interested in the trust behind it. Why This Challenge Captured My Attention I explore why so many people felt comfortable joining a program like this, especially at a moment when online courses are supposedly "dead." As I say in the episode: "What is it about her specifically that people trusted? And I'd argue… it's probably not necessarily her, but how it made them feel." Jessie didn't come out of nowhere—she had: 400K+ followers 12 years of online experience Funnel experts and coaches supporting her A beta tester who hit 1M+ views, proving the method worked But the real magic wasn't her credibility alone. It was the network effects she created by having participants post their homework publicly. People didn't just trust Jessie—they trusted the community. Why This Matters in a Corporate Context I connect the dots between the YAP Challenge and the future of employee-led communication inside organizations. Employees are more trusted than executives. Their authentic, unscripted presence online is a powerful asset for: Employer brand Recruitment Reputation Internal trust Cross-team visibility I share my own experience of building a personal brand inside a corporation and how, even years after leaving, people reached out because they trusted me. This challenge model could easily be adapted inside companies: Run it publicly on LinkedIn Run it privately on Slack Integrate it into employee advocacy programs Use it to build confidence, presence, and thought leadership As I say in the episode: "This type of challenge… gives them something that they feel they can control." Why Video Skills Matter Right Now Video is the antidote to AI slop. It captures: Voice Presence Gestures Authenticity Point of view It's proof of humanity in a moment when people are craving it. What I'm Paying Attention To I'm not participating in the YAP Challenge myself, but I'm deeply interested in: The systems behind its success The trust dynamics The transferable skills The implications for the future of work How organizations could use similar models to build capability and confidence Reflection for Listeners I close the episode by asking: Are you planning to join the YAP Challenge? What skills do you see emerging from participants? What parts of the model do you admire—or question? How could your organization benefit from something similar?     How this creator turned yapping on camera into a 4,000-customer, $1.2 million launch
