This week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk discuss Waymo's great highway unlock, their Bay Area expansion to 260 square miles and the launch of commercial service at the San Jose Airport.Despite the expansion, Waymo remains sharply vehicle-constrained. Bloomberg reported this week that the company is operating roughly 1,000 vehicles in the Bay Area, 700 in Los Angeles, 500 in Phoenix, 200 in Austin, and just 100 in Atlanta, for a total fleet of approximately 2,500 vehicles spread across all markets.In the autonomous trucking market, Kodiak continues to demonstrate that the economics work. With 10 fully driverless trucks generating revenue in the Permian Basin, the company logged 5,200 paid hours last quarter, up 166% from Q2, a meaningful validation of the model.Wrapping up the conversation, Grayson and Walt examine why technology leadership means nothing without scalable manufacturing partnerships and now how autonomous trucking is pulling ahead of robotaxis on business model execution, and what global expansion in Abu Dhabi and Singapore signals about the global competitive landscape.Episode Chapters0:00 Waymo Expands to Highways3:58 Vehicle Supply16:56 California Airports19:28 Tesla FSD Update21:42 Uber Ski25:21 Kodiak29:40 Foreign Autonomy Desk30:40 Next WeekRecorded on Thursday, November 13, 2025--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.

In this week's episode, both of our storytellers bite off a bit more than they can chew. Part 1: Fresh out of college and in what seems like her dream job, drug and alcohol coach Rhana Hashemi quickly realizes she has no idea how to connect with the high school students she's supposed to help. Part 2: When Paul Davis and his wife struggle to get pregnant, they decide to foster a pregnant dog—and things escalate quickly.Rhana Hashemi is a Bay Area–based drug educator, national expert in youth overdose prevention, and Ph.D. candidate in Social Psychology at Stanford University. Her research adapts Lifting the Bar for youth who use substances. This intervention, called More Than That, elevates youth voices to show educators that a student is "more than" their substance use. By reducing stigma and strengthening student–teacher relationships, she demonstrates how seeing and empowering students can protect against risky drug use. Rhana is also the founder and Executive Director of Know Drugs, the first youth-focused harm reduction organization in the United States, which advances evidence-based drug education for young people. Bridging social psychology with community partnerships, she works to reduce drug misuse and promote more compassionate, effective responses to youth substance use.Paul Davis writes and directs horror movies. His last short won Screamfest and Ravenheart, two of the biggest horror film festivals in the U.S. and Europe. He is currently raising funds to expand it into a feature. Paul is passionate about storytelling. He has had stories air on NPR and published in Reader's Digest. He is also working on a solo-storytelling show.

When Waymo robotaxis first rolled out onto San Francisco streets in 2021, people were skeptical. But less than five years later, Waymos are popular – a new poll finds local support at 67% –  though still polarizing. A San Francisco Supervisor is advocating to allow counties to decide whether they are allowed on their roads. As Waymo extends their service this week to San Jose and Bay Area highways, we'll talk with those for and against Waymo expansion. And we'll look at the future of autonomous vehicles as new competition looks to enter the market.

When Shreesha Ramdas left Medallia after a $6.5B acquisition he decided it was time to reinvent.At his 4th startup Lumber, before writing a single line of code, he hired a sales person and ran 200+ interviews across the industry to understand the real pain points. The interviews gave Shreesha the insight that though payments were a problem, it was neither big enough nor urgent. But it was very difficult to hire workers, and even more difficult to retain skilled craft workers. In the U.S alone 41% of construction workers will retire in the next six years, leaving a massive gap in talent and experience. As a big believer in vitamin vs. painkiller, Shreesha is now building where the pain is deepest. We discuss what truly needs to happen before building a startup, the foundation that will shape everything that follows. From his days at Yodlee during the dot-com boom to leading StrikeDeck and selling it to Medallia, he is now building again with clarity and intent for one of the most traditional industries: construction.  But here's one thing that probably tells you more about Shreesha than the companies he has built and scaled. He said, “My heart beats for other founders.

Since then, Domino played a major role in Souls of Mischief and Casual getting major label deals, then launching their own Hieroglyphics Imperium label.

Why This Episode Matters:DJ Grumble's story flips the myth of the “tortured full-time artist” on its head. A medicinal chemist by training, he treats his beat-making with the same rigor as a lab experiment, balancing structure and spontaneity while managing a startup, research deadlines, and a thriving music catalog. His journey shows that creativity and discipline aren't opposites; they're two sides of the same molecule.Explore the Stories Behind the BeatsLove diving into the stories behind the beats? Subscribe to ProducerHead and join producers and creatives exploring the ideas, habits, and inspiration that drive great music.Who is DJ Grumble:Producer, DJ, and chemist. Known for a massive catalog of soulful, sample-based beats, DJ Grumble built a cult following through SoundCloud, YouTube, and Bandcamp. DJ Grumble has produced tracks for RIAA-certified gold and platinum artists such as Ari Lennox and Surfaces, and his work has been featured in TV shows, movies, and video games, all while holding a PhD-level background in nano-medicine and now serving as co-founder of a cancer biotech startup in the Bay Area.What We Dive Into:* Parallels between scientific experimentation and sampling* Managing expectations and finding work-life balance* How to release fearlessly and build a catalog that compounds* The “quantity vs. quality” myth and the power of consistency* Business 101 for producers: PROs, SongTrust, and royalties* Collaboration, taste, and why addition is often subtraction* Merging two worlds: creativity and chemistryThree Key Takeaways:* Consistency > Perfection: Grumble's catalog exploded when he stopped over-editing and started releasing — one beat every week. He learned that fans, not artists, decide what hits.* Science and Sound Share the Same DNA: Sampling and chemistry both start with raw materials and transform them through experimentation. Grumble's scientific mindset fuels his musical process.* Manage Your Expectations: Whether it's the lab or the music business, results take time. Success compounds slowly — and you can only collect on your creativity if you understand the systems that pay you.Before You Go:What's your version of the “lab?” The place where you put in steady, focused work that no one sees?

Phil's extensive background in sports and music, including managing Grammy winner Fantastic Negrito, led him to create this non-profit.  02:05 From Ronnie Lott's Idea to Follow the Music  Phil Green shares how a conversation with NFL Hall of Famer Ronnie Lott about a new venue sparked the idea for Follow the Music.   04:32 Fantastic Negrito's Journey and Industry Lessons  Phil recounts the incredible comeback story of Fantastic Negrito, who achieved Grammy success at 50 after a major label dropped him and a severe accident. This experience highlighted the music industry's challenges and the importance of artists finding their unique voice, shaping Phil's current work with young people.  08:33 The Genesis and Mission of Follow the Music Phil elaborates on the founding of Follow the Music, emphasizing its mission to help young artists follow their true passions and express their authentic selves.   11:57 Supporting Young Artists and Community  Phil explains how Follow the Music collaborates with institutions like the Oakland School for the Arts to develop and showcase young musicians. By leveraging his connections, Phil creates high-visibility opportunities for these artists at major festivals and sporting events, helping them navigate the competitive music landscape.  15:15 Inspiring Hope Through Youthful Energy  Phil describes Follow the Music as more than just artist development; it's about connecting the Bay Area to support music education and celebrating the vibrant spirit of young artists. He believes their courage and vulnerability offer hope and inspiration in a divided world, marking his 'third act' dedicated to empowering the next generation.  23:17 Oakland Rising at the Kennedy Center  Phil shares the powerful story of Oakland Rising's performance at the Kennedy Center, where the group faced a dilemma due to prior boycotts. Half the band chose to perform as a trio, displaying incredible grace and mutual support despite differing opinions, delivering a stunning and emotionally charged performance.  27:39 Resilience and Reinvention in Oakland  Phil addresses the challenges faced by Oakland, including the departure of major sports teams, but emphasizes the city's pride and resilience. He expresses optimism about the burgeoning arts and culture scene and new community-focused sports teams like the Oakland Ballers, which are rebuilding the city's vibrant spirit from the ground up.  31:16 Music's Transformational Power and Life Skills  Phil clarifies that Follow the Music's primary goal isn't just to produce professional musicians but to illuminate the transformational power of music for personal growth. He highlights how music education, much like sports, teaches discipline, teamwork, and perseverance, filling a vital gap in youth development.  36:18 Future Vision and Lasting Impact  Phil sees Follow the Music as a model for other cities, aiming to uplift existing music education programs rather than replicate them. He reflects on the deep personal reward of helping young people navigate the future through music, emphasizing that the impact on their lives has far surpassed his initial expectations.

On this day in history, we remember the Rickenbackers of California -- the World War I flying ace and his guitar-making cousin.

In Zohran Mamdani's victory speech after being elected New York City's new mayor, he thanked those often forgotten by the politics of the city, the “Yemeni bodega owners and Mexican abuelas. Senegalese taxi drivers and Uzbek nurses. Trinidadian line cooks and Ethiopian aunties.” It got us thinking about the people who make up our Bay Area cities and whether they are represented by our politics. And we'll hear from you: Who are the often overlooked people who you see as the heart of your city?

Are you ready to parent with more calm, clarity, and connection? In this episode, I'm joined by Lauren Berlin, a Parent Success Catalyst who empowers caregivers to lead with intention, connection, and calm. We explore the principles of mindful parenting—what it really means to show up with presence, regulate our own emotions, and create meaningful relationships with our children. Lauren shares practical strategies, personal stories, and deep insights that will resonate with any parent striving to nurture their child while staying grounded themselves. Whether you're in the thick of toddlerhood or navigating the teen years, this conversation is full of wisdom and encouragement.About Lauren Berlin (in her words)My path to executive coaching has been a winding one, full of unexpected turns and valuable lessons. It all began in the suburbs of Detroit, where I spent my childhood until a pivotal move to Albuquerque for my senior year of high school. That experience, though challenging, sparked a deep curiosity about people and their stories – a thread that's woven through everything I do.After graduating from New Mexico State University (Go Aggies!) in 2002 with a degree in Communication Studies and Psychology, I finally made my way to California, a dream I'd held for years. Saying goodbye to snow was a no-brainer! Over the last two decades, I've explored different corners of the Golden State, from Orange County to Santa Barbara, and now I'm happily settled in San Carlos in the Bay Area. These moves have given me a real appreciation for the ups and downs of navigating new environments and life stages.Learn more from Lauren at:  https://laurenberlin.myflodesk.com/ny17u520ucAbout TheresaA wife and a mother to two children and grandmother, Theresa Alexander Inman is a Parenting Coach, Board Certified Behavior Analyst, Infant Toddler Development Specialist, Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical Specialist.

Hi everyone! Today I'm talking with Bay Area photographer Ryan Shaver, who shoots exclusively on Polaroid. We get into how he built a business around instant film, what makes the medium so different to work with, and how he's carved out a unique spot in the industry.Meet Ryan: Ryan Shaver is a Polaroid photographer based in the San Francisco Bay Area who stands out in the professional photography world for shooting exclusively on Polaroid. After completing his graduate research paper, Predictive Processing for Artificial Intelligence & Cognition, Ryan leaned fully into instant film as a way to preserve memories with honesty and imperfection.In 2022, he bet that people would eventually grow tired of the overly polished look of AI-generated imagery and crave something real. He went all in on a niche few pursue due to its high costs and challenges, landing his first client within a year. Since 2023, Ryan has photographed weddings, portraits, and major corporate events — including a recent donors event at the Exploratorium — and now also serves as the Creative Director for Siempre Golden clothing brand.Connect with Ryan:Corporate Holiday Party Season is coming up, and Ryan is still taking bookings!The first ten people to book a wedding package next year, if they drop the code "SUMMER", will get 10% the total negotiated package price.Website: ⁠shaver.filmInstagram: ⁠@shaver.filmConnect with Me:Subscribe to our emails for updates on all things Summer School!⁠SUBSCRIBE HERE⁠Show Notes: ⁠the-summerschool.com⁠Instagram: ⁠@summergrace.photo⁠  ⁠@the_summerschool⁠ Shop My Products:⁠Become a Member of Summer School⁠⁠My Summer Grace x G-Presets⁠ ⁠ (⁠discount code: SUMMERSCHOOL)⁠My Pricing Guide

Today on the No Regrets Podcast, Nate Gruber is joined by Russ Ewell, pastor and leader in the Bay Area, who is doing incredible work engaging and empowering Gen Z and millennials. Russ shares his story of growing up in a church-filled community but never feeling connected—until a friend invited him to a Young Life event that changed everything. It was there he first saw what authentic Christian community could look like. Now, as pastor of a multi-campus church that continually raises up young leaders, Russ talks about the importance of releasing control, giving the next generation real opportunities to lead, and creating environments where young people can shape the church in a biblical and relevant way. He shares how his team intentionally simplifies messages, includes younger voices in sermon writing, and keeps new people close to stay connected and grounded in everyday ministry. Russ and Nate also discuss practical ways to reach Gen Z in today's world—meeting people where they are, investing deeply in relationships, and addressing the rising challenges of anxiety, ADHD, and depression with compassion and understanding. If you're looking for ways to lead young people in your context in a way that makes sense to them and invites them to grow in faith, this episode is for you.
