NOTE: This episode and all to follow are dedicated to the memory of the late, great Steve Waid. Newly slenderized Michael McSwain joins host Rick Houston to discuss a whopper of an unfiltered Tim Brewer interview. This week, Brewer drops not one … not two … but three MAJOR bombshells about qualifying for the 1992 Daytona 500 and the iconic NASCAR's Greatest Race … the 1992 Hooters 500. Rick and Michael then break down the February 13, 1992 issue of Winston Cup Scene. Gary Nelson is in his first year with NASCAR as its Winston Cup director in training … and let's just say that Gary is loaded for bear and swinging from the heels when it came to policing the inspection process. Tim Brewer does NOT get sent to NASCAR's electric chair after Junior Johnson & Associates teammates Sterling Marlin and Bill Elliott sweep the first two starting spots for the next weekend's Daytona 500, while Geoff Bodine overcomes ... cough, cough ... handling problems to win the Busch Clash.

Steve Lowry and Yvonne Godfrey interview trial lawyers Bill Horton and D'Arcy L.R. Rapp about their Dallas trial of Davis v. NCAA, arising from SMU lineman JT Davis's repeated head impacts from 1955–1959, his later dementia, and a postmortem Boston University diagnosis of stage four CTE after his 2016 death.   CASE SUMMARY: They discuss securing a $140 million verdict ($30M compensatory, $110M punitive), the NCAA's historical knowledge of concussion risks through decades of medical literature and internal documents (including a 1933 medical handbook), and how the team simplified complex science and governance evidence using timelines, boards, and themes like control, competitive disadvantage, and “recommendations vs rules.” They address defenses including Alzheimer's, vascular factors, APOE4 genetic predisposition (framed as eggshell plaintiff), statute-of-limitations discovery issues, and trial strategy, cross-examinations, and damages presentation. (READ MORE)   GUEST BIOS BILL HORTON: Bill Horton has spent his career fighting for people who the system often overlooks—delivering results that stand among the largest in his field, including a $140 million verdict against the NCAA. Since earning his law degree in 2001, Bill has helped clients across Arkansas and the country secure justice against corporations, insurers, and powerful institutions. His work spans catastrophic injury, wrongful death, trucking litigation, class actions, and complex cases where the stakes are highest. Raised in Van Buren, Arkansas, Bill's path into law was shaped early. “Growing up poor, it became clear that the system wasn't fair for folks like me—and I wanted to change that,” he says. That perspective still drives his work today. (READ MORE)   D'Arcy L.R. Rapp: D'Arcy L.R. Rapp is an attorney at Shrader & Associates, LLP.

On the Monday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, the Post-Gazette's Adam Bittner and Christopher Carter discuss DK Metcalf's upside within the Steelers' offensive in 2026. How much will the star WR benefit from the return of Aaron Rodgers at QB and the arrival of offensively focused head coach Mike McCarthy? Will defenses be able to focus on him less than they did in 2025 because of Michael Pittman Jr. and Germie Bernard joining the receivers room? And what are reasonable totals to expect from him alongside other receiving threats including Pat Freiermuth, Darnell Washington, Roman Wilson, Jaylen Warren and Rico Dowdle? Our duo tackles those questions, then ponders new DC Patrick Graham's plans for the safety group. How will he mimic the choices coach Mike Tomlin and DC Teryl Austin made last season? And how could he differ in how he uses names like Jalen Ramsey, Jaquan Brisker, DeShon Elliott and Darnell Savage? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

For two decades, Blanca Turrubiate-Simpson watched Alex Murdaugh operate through other people. Curtis Eddie Smith cashed checks. Associates carried messages. Relationships provided cover. Deniability was built into every arrangement. Alex Murdaugh, according to the woman who knew the household better than anyone outside the family, never did anything alone. So when the defense walks into the retrial claiming “other suspects” committed the murders of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh, Blanca doesn't flinch. She has her own theory about other people — and it doesn't point away from Alex.Blanca believes Alex had a Plan A that involved someone else being at Moselle the night of the killings. When that arrangement fell apart, she says he executed it himself and constructed a story around the boat crash families. Her basis is twenty years of watching how this man solved problems: never with his own hands when someone else's would do. She confronts the defense's third-party strategy head-on and asks the question that should follow the defense into every courtroom session: if he never did anything alone before, why would this be the exception?Attorney Eric Bland adds the retrial dimension. He built the financial crimes case the prosecution leaned on as motive. The Supreme Court ordered that evidence sharply limited. Bland addresses what survives into the second trial, whether the prosecution overplayed what he helped expose, and what it means that the defense now has subpoena power for the first time. He predicts a high likelihood of reconviction but acknowledges a real chance of a hung jury — and identifies who the holdout juror is and what gets them there. The AG is floating the death penalty. Bland explains what that changes strategically and whether the defense's claim of vindictive prosecution has legal legs.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Can you run a hyper-profitable tax and advisory firm while heavily restricting your personal work hours? Most accounting firm owners and managing partners assume that scaling past six figures requires sacrificing their personal life to the grind.   In this episode of Growing Your Firm, host David Cristello sits down with Yuri Kapilovich, Managing Partner of Kapilovich and Associates—known across social media as "The Fun CPA." After spending over a decade handling high-net-worth clients at giant tax firms, Yuri stepped out on his own to build an ultra-lean, highly optimized practice.   Yuri pulls back the curtain on how he structure-built his firm to generate nearly $290k in gross revenue while working only 15 to 25 hours a week! If you're a bookkeeping firm owner, a CPA starting a firm, or an operations manager, this step-by-step masterclass reveals how pricing alignment directly builds lifestyle freedom.   In this episode, we explore: The "Fun CPA" Blueprint: How leaning into raw, honest, and unconventional branding on LinkedIn unlocked massive organic growth. The $2,000 Minimum Baseline: Why establishing rigid price floors protects your team's capacity and eliminates low-margin, high-volume compliance traps. The Three-Tier Revenue Split: Breaking down Yuri's $290k engine—from seasonal tax preparation to core quarterly advisory and monthly recurring client accounting services (CAS). The Ultimate Solo Leverage Strategy: Managing 80 high-value business clients by hyper-utilizing part-time specialized contractor support. Social Media vs. Firm Reality: An honest discussion on managing the mental toll of online comparison and how to strategically filter out vanity metrics.   Key Metrics and Firm Benchmarks Mentioned: Average Relationship Value: $3,500 to $3,600 per client. The "3x" Capacity Rule: Ensuring your fractional team or software tools produce three times their compensation footprint to maintain an elite profit margin.   Featured Guest: Yuri Kapilovich

June 18, 2026 | Discussing How The US Open Impacted the Hamptons Real Estate Market with John HealeyIt's U.S. Open Championship week in the Hamptons, with Shinnecock Hills once again putting Southampton at the center of the golf world. And, naturally, the Hamptons know how to host — even at this scale. This week, we are joined by returning guest and veteran Hamptons real estate agent John Healey for a timely conversation on the U.S. Open, Southampton rentals, and the state of the East End real estate market.We kick off with what we're seeing on the ground in Southampton, Bridgehampton, and beyond, then get into the question everyone asked leading up to tournament week: did the U.S. Open actually send the Hamptons rental market into overdrive, or was most of that demand already locked up long before the first tee time at Shinnecock Hills?In this episode, we take a closer look at what continues to drive the Hamptons real estate market, from long-term investment confidence to the rental culture that keeps people coming back year after year.We discuss:How the Hamptons real estate market continues to hold steady despite interest rate hikes, inflation concerns, and global uncertaintyWhy the East End remains one of the most consistent long-term luxury real estate investmentsHow seasonal rentals can often turn into future buyers when agents stay connectedWhy the “experience economy” helps explain the people who happily rent in the Hamptons year after year, instead of owningIf you have ever wondered whether owning property in the Hamptons is not only a lifestyle decision but an asset you can actually live in, this conversation brings both the logic and the nuance.We also spotlight a specific Southampton Village opportunity at 220 Elm Street, including what makes a classic village property worth renovating rather than tearing down, and why location, scale, and potential still matter in a market that often favors new construction.Weekly Hamptons Real Estate Data from Saunders & Associates:32 listings went into contract, representing $126M in dollar volume, alongside 35 new listings.

Thanks to our partners Promotive, WickedFile, Maverick Shop Owners, and OverdryveIs your shop growing in revenue but shrinking in profit? Are you convinced that raising your labor rate is the fastest path to the bottom line — only to discover that your highest-charging competitors are losing money? And what if the real difference between a shop that keeps 35 cents of every dollar and one that loses money has nothing to do with location, specialty, or size?In this solo deep-dive, Hunt Demarest, CPA at Paar Melis & Associates, walks through the 2026 Auto Shop Benchmark Report — specifically, what separates the top 10% of shops from the bottom 10%. It's about the metrics that actually matter: how much of every sales dollar ends up in the owner's pocket, why overhead is silently eating 42 cents on every dollar in struggling shops, and why the shops doing the most are almost always doing it with the fewest people. Hunt strips the report down to what you need to know — and what to do about it.Whether you're a two-bay shop trying to crack profitability or a multi-location owner wondering why growth keeps outrunning your margins — this episode is essential listening.wondering why growth keeps outrunning your margins — this episode is essential listening.What You'll Learn...(00:01) Why Part 2 shifts from industry trends to what separates winners from losers(04:01) How Paar Melis defines a "top shop" — and why net profit alone doesn't tell the whole story(07:37) The sales volume surprise — why bigger isn't always better, and smaller isn't always a disadvantage(10:56) The metric top shops don't even know they're winning — gross profit per square foot(14:56) Why the Midwest lost all its top shops this year — and who's to blame(19:31) The labor rate myth, debunked — bottom shops charge more per hour and still lose(23:16) The 12-point overhead gap that explains almost every difference in profitability(26:18) Service advisor output — the $18,000-per-month performance gap you probably aren't measuring(26:18) The one fix that moves shops from the bottom 10% to the top — and most already know what it isIf you're ready to stop chasing sales volume as a substitute for profit, understand why the shop charging less per hour is likely the one making more money, and finally see the 12-point overhead gap that separates top shops from everyone else — this episode is essential listening.Get the FREE 2026 Auto Shop Benchmark Report: https://hubs.ly/Q04j-grh0Thanks to our partner, PromotivePromotive has over 40 years of recruiting and automotive experience.

Most people treat the Old Age Security (OAS) clawback like a cliff you fall off the moment your income crosses the line. It isn't. In this episode we reframe the clawback as one number among many, and look at when fighting to avoid it quietly costs you more than it saves. A listener wrote in about friends who organize their whole retirement around protecting OAS. Joe walks through what the clawback actually is, the math that makes avoiding it backfire, and the bigger cost most people never see. This one is for Canadian couples near or in retirement who want their income, tax, and estate decisions working together, not one line on a tax form running the show.   In this episode: Understand how the OAS recovery tax really works. It is a marginal cost of fifteen cents on each dollar above the threshold, not an all-or-nothing cliff. See how starving your Registered Retirement Income Fund (RRIF) to protect OAS can create larger forced withdrawals later and a painful tax bill at the second death. Weigh the behaviour cost: the trips, the help to your kids, and the generosity you postpone to protect a benefit that may be small against a large portfolio. Learn the two camps. For households near the income threshold, protecting OAS is genuinely smart. For those with a large portfolio, it may be a rounding error. Follow the right order of questions: what your ideal life costs, your projected lifetime tax bill, and what happens to the RRIF at the second death, before the clawback gets a vote.   About: Your Retirement Planning Simplified is a weekly Canadian retirement planning podcast hosted by Joe Curry, CFP, CEPA, of Matthews and Associates, an independent wealth management firm.

On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, the Post-Gazette's Christopher Carter and Noah Hiles react to news this week that Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby will enter the NFL supplemental draft this summer. Should coach Mike McCarthy and GM Omar Khan consider Sorsby as another possible successor to Aaron Rodgers after 2026? Or should they stand by their current duo of young QBs in Drew Allar and Will Howard? And what other options would they have to pursue a franchise QB after this season, when names including Dante Moore, Arch Manning and Jayden Maiava are expected to be available in the 2027 NFL draft? Our duo tackles those questions and more. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

"There's a time when an exit is going to be inevitable — there may not be a time certain, but there is a time." Host Laurie Barkman reunites with Chip Scholz, founder of Scholz and Associates and author of Small Decisions, Big Shifts and the upcoming Handoffs, for a deeply personal and insightful conversation about the hidden leadership mistakes that quietly destroy business succession plans. Chip has spent nearly 30 years coaching executives and family business leaders through some of the most complex transitions in business — and he first met Laurie 13 years ago when she was a CEO candidate in a third-generation family business. Together they explore what great leadership evaluation looks like, why founders hold on too long, how hubris silently collapses delegation and decision-making, and the three stages every leader goes through on the road to retirement. Chip shares what he's learned — and what he's still learning — about the small decisions that ultimately create the biggest shifts.   Key Insights Culture fit is the foundation of every great leadership hire. The best organizations are people-oriented and performance-driven — in that order. When performance leads and people follow, bad things happen. Every hire, especially at the CEO level, should be evaluated through three lenses: strengths, motivations, and fit. Viewing the business as an asset — not a legacy — is what makes a clean exit possible. Founders who treat their company as an asset can make clear-headed decisions about growth, transition, and sale. Those who treat it purely as a legacy often hold on too long, stall the next generation, and turn what was once a strength into a bottleneck. Hubris is the silent killer of succession. When leaders believe they are the only ones who can run the business, delegation collapses, decision-making centralizes, and the organization becomes dependent on one person. Chip has seen companies where no one could spend $100 without CEO approval — and half the leadership team couldn't survive the transition when that CEO finally left. Retirement has three stages — and most founders only plan for the first one. Vacation, depression, and meaning and purpose. The honeymoon phase fades fast. Founders who haven't built outside interests, hobbies, or identity beyond the business hit a wall — and without a plan, depression follows. The goal is to reach meaning and purpose before a crisis forces the issue. Crisis is often the catalyst for transition — but it doesn't have to be. Whether it's a health scare, a lost client, or a market shift, crises force the introspection that should have happened years earlier. Chip advocates for doing that work proactively — in your 50s or early 60s — before external pressure removes your options. A hobby isn't a luxury — it's a succession strategy. Finding something outside the business that gives you purpose, community, and a sense of leadership is one of the most practical things a founder can do to prepare for transition. For Chip, it's woodturning. The point isn't the craft — it's the identity that lives outside the company.   Chapters: 00:00  Introduction of Chip Scholz 02:26  Reconnecting After 13 Years — A Personal Story 03:02  Leadership Evaluation: Strengths, Motivations, and Fit 06:37  Family Business Succession: Common Challenges 07:33  Asset vs. Legacy — The Mindset That Changes Everything 12:16  The Third-Generation Company: A Shared Story 14:04  Phantom Stock and Making 100 People Millionaires 16:00  The Five C's Framework for Leadership 17:42  Why Letting Go Is So Emotionally Hard 18:11   Hubris and Delegation: When Founders Won't Step Back 20:14  The $100 Approval Story 21:50  Why "Retirement" Triggers an Allergic Reaction 22:25  The Three Stages of Retirement 23:34  15 Years Preparing for Retirement — A Coaching Story 24:52  The Real Risk of the Depression Phase 26:44  What Does Retirement Really Mean? 29:33  Finding Purpose Outside Work: Woodturning 30:51  Handoffs — The Upcoming Book 35:02 Three Takeaways for Every Business Owner     Is your business truly ready—and are you?

On the Monday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, the Post-Gazette's Adam Bittner and Christopher Carter wrap up Steelers OTAs with a focus on the 2026 NFL draft class. How should this group be viewed with Germie Bernard still the only player expected to contribute quickly?

And are we sleeping on the potential of specialist players like Kaden Wetjen, Eli Heidenreich and Riley Nowakowski to stand out within their roles?

On the Friday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Christopher Carter welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo to analyze the team's moves with its 2023 NFL draft class. Are new deals for LB Nick Herbig and TE Darnell Washington a sign of how much GM Omar Khan and coach Mike McCarthy believe in that group over the long run? Will Joey Porter Jr. and Keeanu Benton also get new deals this summer? And if so, will those players form the team's new core of stars, replacing the old guard led by Aaron Rodgers, T.J. Watt, Cam Heyward, Jalen Ramsey and DK Metcalf? Our duo tackles those questions, then ponders the defense's future. How long will it remain the highest paid unit on that side of the ball in the NFL? Will the spending outlast the tenures of names like Ramsey, Watt and Heyward in Pittsburgh? Or will spending start flowing more to the offensive side of the ball and names like Troy Fautanu, Mason McCormick, Zach Frazier, Jaylen Warren and others who could be up for new contracts in the next couple of years?

In this episode, I discuss one of the biggest misconceptions about confidence inside BigLaw: the belief that confidence comes from having more certainty, more answers, or complete mastery of every situation. In reality, legal practice is built around ambiguity. Clients face evolving risks, litigation strategies shift as facts emerge, deals change direction unexpectedly, and lawyers are often asked to provide guidance before all the information is available. I explain why the most respected lawyers are not the people who eliminate uncertainty, but the people who learn how to function effectively while uncertainty still exists. I break down the difference between confidence and certainty, why associates often mistakenly interpret ambiguity as evidence of incompetence, and how experienced lawyers create structure, judgment, and direction even when no one fully knows the answer. I also discuss how observing other lawyers handle pressure can accelerate professional growth, why clients value stability and organized thinking more than perfection, and how confidence is built through repeated exposure to difficult situations rather than through flawless performance. Finally, I explain why recovery from mistakes is often more important than avoiding mistakes altogether and how lawyers can develop the operational steadiness that clients, partners, and colleagues trust during high-pressure situations. At a Glance 01:20 Why confidence in BigLaw does not come from eliminating uncertainty 02:05 How legal practice remains driven by ambiguity regardless of seniority 03:13 Why confident lawyers focus on moving matters forward despite incomplete information 04:07 Common misconceptions associates have about what confidence looks like 05:03 How lawyers unintentionally undermine credibility through excessive disclaimers and self-doubt 06:07 What experienced lawyers do when clients, judges, or negotiations create unexpected uncertainty 07:08 Why uncertainty should be viewed as a management challenge rather than personal failure 08:02 How observing other lawyers handle pressure accelerates professional development 09:02 The difference between contextualizing uncertainty and emotionally absorbing it 09:25 Why a simple "Need to discuss" email can trigger unnecessary panic for associates 10:22 How experienced lawyers create steadiness by evaluating situations through context rather than fear 10:46 What clients actually want from lawyers during stressful situations 11:52 Why the most trusted lawyers communicate measured judgment instead of absolute certainty 12:55 How confidence develops through repeated exposure to difficult but survivable experiences 14:00 Why professional credibility is often built through recovery rather than perfection 14:56 How confidence becomes a practiced skill rather than a temporary feeling 15:21 Practical habits lawyers use to remain effective when facing ambiguity and pressure 16:13 Two mindset shifts that help lawyers build lasting confidence in BigLaw Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts & Spotify Do you enjoy listening to Big Law Life?  Please consider rating and reviewing the show!

On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Christopher Carter welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo to discuss coach Mike McCarthy's old-school ideas for tight ends Darnell Washington and Pat Freiermuth. Can a 1990s-style role within the offense work for that duo with Aaron Rodgers at QB and an improved set of pass catchers including DK Metcalf, Michael Pittman Jr., Germie Bernard, Roman Wilson and Jaylen Warren around them? And how capable is the current roster of playing that more physical style of the past? Our duo tackles those questions, then talks QBs and how pivotal this summer could be for Will Howard as he looks to prove he deserves consideration for the QB2 role next to Mason Rudolph and Drew Allar.

Hiring and keeping an associate sounds simple until the interview process, compensation questions, and culture-fit issues start to derail everything. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt brings on Cassie Tallon, an operations expert and founder of The Fractional Match, to explain why most dental practices fail when hiring associates and what to do differently. You'll learn how to evaluate fit beyond clinical skills, how to set compensation expectations with transparency, why paying on collections matters, and how to prepare your practice so an associate can actually succeed and stay. Listen to Episode 1058 of The Best Practices Show!Main Takeaways:Decide whether you want an associate purely for production or someone you will develop into a leader and potential legacy successor.Use a recruitment service instead of posting a job yourself without understanding today's compensation models and contract pitfalls.Evaluate relational and empathetic patient-care philosophy early, not just clinical procedure capability.Confirm the associate is coachable and willing to be led during onboarding, not just eager to produce immediately.Start onboarding with financial clarity—how the P&L works and how pay is calculated—to prevent distrust and turnover.Pay associates on collections to tie compensation to real revenue and reinforce documentation, billing, and follow-through habits.Fix patient mix, services, and marketing before hiring an associate instead of expecting the associate to solve a broken model.Snippets:00:00 Hiring Associates Is Hard01:06 Meet Cassie Tallon03:41 Associate or Partner Choice05:30 Recruiting Landscape Today06:56 Fit Over Clinical Skills10:40 Pay Models That Work12:35 Equity and Autonomy14:31 Fix Patient Mix First19:10 Develop Associates Skills22:00 Retention and Transparency24:02 Work Life Satisfaction27:47 XChange Soft Skills Talk30:01 Final Advice and Wrap UpGuest Bio/Guest Resources:Cassie Tallon is a dental operations leader with 20 years of experience spanning multi-doctor practices and DSOs, including supporting growth and operational efficiency across multiple locations.

The data proving empathy is smart business has always been there, it's all we talk about here - but now it's bigger, broader, and more impossible to ignore than ever. Dr. Robert Coleman is Director of Research and Thought Leadership at Dale Carnegie and Associates, where he leads ongoing research into the issues facing leaders, employees, and organizations worldwide. He comes bearing serious receipts in the form of Dale Carnegie's white paper, The Power of Empathy: A Key Soft Skill for the Future of Work. Now in its third consecutive year of global research with roughly 4,000 respondents. This isn't a one-off survey. This is an ongoing comparative study that is building an airtight case for empathy as a core business strategy.Robert walks us through what the data actually shows - and it is compelling. Employees in high-empathy workplaces dramatically outperform those in low-empathy ones on retention, satisfaction, and goal achievement. Teams in high-empathy organizations are significantly more likely to meet and exceed their targets. And here's the stat that stopped me cold: only 14% of employees say they've received training specifically focused on empathy, despite its proven link to performance and retention. Not because employees don't want it, they are craving it. It's the interpersonal skills they know matter most. And yet companies continue to underinvest. We dive deep into the data together and then pull back out to make sense of what it means for your organization and why you need to pay attention right now.To access the episode transcript, go to www.TheEmpathyEdge.com, search by episode title.Listen in for…How one interaction can shape someone's view of your organization.Why roll fit should be addressed from the front end, and not assumed to be fixed later.Statistics around empathy as a retention and job satisfaction driver.Why accountability is important for engagement at all levels. "Without empathy, emotional intelligence loses its effectiveness, because empathy makes it actionable. It's how people experience it, and it is that action piece that transforms emotional awareness into those meaningful leadership outcomes that people are looking for." — Robert Coleman, Ph.DAbout Robert Coleman, Ph.D., Director of Research and Thought Leadership, Dale CarnegieRobert A.

Solar & storage pioneers Solar Design Associates share 50 years of firsts on the Clean Power Hour. They put solar on the White House in 1979 and built the first community solar garden in America. Haskell Werlin and Steven Strong trace solar's fall from $16 to $1 per watt, explain why the battery cost curve is following the same path, and break down what the ITC-free era means for developers.Solar and storage pioneers Solar Design Associates have been designing solar energy systems since 1974, accumulating firsts from the Carter-era White House installation to the first true community solar garden in the United States. Haskell Werlin, Vice President of Business Development, and Steven Strong, Founder and President, join Tim Montague on the Clean Power Hour to trace 50 years of solar industry evolution. Solar pricing fell from $16 per watt for satellites to $1 per watt for ground mounts today, and Haskell confirms the battery cost curve is now following the same downward path, with Texas leading the country in solar and battery installations. This episode covers landmark projects, including the Bullit Center in Seattle and the Harvard community solar garden, alongside a direct assessment of what the residential ITC removal means for project economics through 2028 and beyond.Here is what you will learn from this conversation about 50 years of solar storage pioneers and the battery transition ahead:You will learn why Haskell argues Texas, not Hawaii, is now leading the country in solar and battery installations after transforming the ERCOT grid from fossil fuel dependency to firm base load power.Find out how the first true community solar garden in the US, a 542-kilowatt ground mount in Harvard, Massachusetts required a statewide home rule petition to resolve a property tax classification dispute with the local assessor.Understand how the Bullit Center in Seattle, described by the New York Times Architectural Review as the “Most sustainable commercial building in America,” achieved 100% energy offset in one of the least sunny major cities in the US.Find out how Solar Design Associates put solar on the White House under President Carter in 1979, with Steven Strong on the roof for the dedication ceremony, and were called back under President George W. Bush in 2006 to install solar on the pool and cabana, spanning two administrations and three decades. Find out how Solar Design Associates has never exceeded 20 employees in 50 years, why hiring graduates with no prior solar experience is a deliberate strategy, and what Haskell says about the companies growing fast and falling hard.Fifty years ago solar panels powered satellites because nothing else could reach them, and the technology now costs $1 per watt for ground mounts, a cost collapse driven by German feed-in tariffs, and Chinese manufacturing scale. The battery industry is now following the same path solar took from satellite technology to mass market infrastructure, with the same forces of policy, manufacturing scale, and early adopter projects already in motion. Professionals watching this episode are standing at the same inflection point the solar pioneers of 1974 stood at, with the advantage of knowing exactly how this story ends.Connect Steven Strong, Haskell Werlin Haskell Werlin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/haskell-werlin-1a21383/Steven Strong: https://www.linkedin.com/in/steven-strong-3309894/Solar Design Associates: https://solardesign.com/ Support the showConnect with Tim  Clean Power Hour  Clean Power Hour on YouTubeTim on TwitterTim on LinkedIn Email tim@cleanpowerhour.com Review Clean Power Hour on Apple PodcastsThe Clean Power Hour is produced by the Clean Power Consulting Group and created by Tim Montague.
