This episode features the return of Ben Matthews, who was a part of Episode 83 in 2018, and went on to found Terratorium, which is the focal point of conversation for this episode. Ben has been a long-time podcast listener and he and I met when he came out to Napa for the Deep Winemaking (wine camp) in 2017. A year later Ben came back to Napa to work harvest with me at Seavey Vineyard. Upon returning to Cincinnati and founding Terratorium Ben brought me into the business to help with vineyards and winemaking. 2021 was our first year of full production and the complicated path of producing our Riesling felt like a story we could share on the podcast. Our conversation covers Ben's telling of building Terratorium, the desire to make a Riesling, Tondre Grapefield in Santa Lucia Highlands, and the many obstacles and discussions we had in order to create our desired style of Riesling. We talk through every step of the winemaking, including all of the chemistries, during this discussion.

With companies taking a long look at developer experience, it's time to turn that attention on the humble pull request. The folks at LinearB took a look at a million PRs — four million review cycles involving around 25,000 developers — and found that it takes about five days to get through a review and merge the code. CI/CD has done wonders getting deployments down to a day or less; maybe it's time for continuous merge next. On this sponsored episode of the podcast, we chat with COO Dan Lines and CEO Ori Keren, co-founders of LinearB, about why PRs are the chokepoint in the software development lifecycle, uncovering and automating the hidden rules of review requests, and their free tool, gitStream, that'll find the right reviewer for your PR right now. Episode notes: So why do reviews take so long? Context switches, team leads who review everything, and the bystander effect are top contenders.Dan and Ori hope their gitStream tool can reduce the time PRs take by automating a lot of the hidden rules for reviews. Check it out at gitstream.cm or linearb.io/dev.Dan Lines hosts his own podcast: Dev Interrupted. Check out this episode with Stack Overflow's very own Ben Matthews.

This week, Don and Tim interview Nick Loveland, a noted Texas River Naturalist and avid Hill Country fly fisherman. Nick discusses his scientific work studying Texas fisheries and the growing awareness of micro-fishing as a sport. Texas rivers and streams have an incredible variety of fish perfect for micro fishing. With over 170 species of fish found in Texas waters, the problem is not so much how to catch fish but instead identifying what you have captured. You will not want to miss this fascinating episode of Roll Cast, where Nick Loveland opens our eyes to the tremendous diversity found in Texas rivers.

One day, passing https://www.sruc.ac.uk/courses-training/campuses/sruc-elmwood-fife (SRUC Elmwood) campus he spotted a banner advertising a career in greenkeeping. It was to be his eureka moment.

Combining a passion for wine with a background in marketing to Millennials from Proctor and Gamble, Ben Matthews launched Terratorium Wines. Building a brand for Millennials has led to creating target personas, packaging elements that lead to more transparency, and pricing to create a fine wine entry point. Hear about how Terratorium is creating brand alignment with its Millennial customers. Support the show on Patreon. Detailed Show Notes: Millennial purchase driversWant straightforward, more “natural,” less manufactured products - concern for clean ingredients for products that are “in you,” “on you,” or “around you”Want alignment on brand values, it's more than just economicsLike transparency for the manufacturing processNot as price-sensitive as people think they areWant to support brands you're proud to tell your friends about, which increases the word of mouth velocity, e.g., Tom's Shoe's “Buy 1, Give 1” Need the right price point (there's a ceiling for Millennials) - ~$25-low $40s for a single vineyard, craft wine; the market entry point for fine wineMillennials are now 50% of parents, which is influencing buying practices, sustainability becoming more importantDeveloped personas for their target consumers - “who is my who?”Came up with fictitious characters - “Jake” and “Meaghan”Average older millennial professionalsCreates a brand lens for wine style, packaging, varietal selection, etc...Terratorium varietals Try to bring in not quite mainstream varieties Millennials like learning about thingsPackaging - P&G says it's “the 1st moment of truth” - need to capture the eyeFront label abstract graphic to visualize tasting notes, colors represent flavors that correlate to tasting icons on the backBack labelTasting icons on what the tastes of the wine areRegional / vineyard information (new) - more hooks to remember the region (e.g. - soil types, climate)QR code for the website - will be more targeted in the futureThe Instagram handle on the back label - try to drive more trafficIn the future - will have ingredients, nutritional information on the websiteWinemaking for Millennials They like lower abv, fresher wines vs. heavier, oaky, more savory beveragesWine Clubs likely to remain a viable system w/ Millennials, like regular shipments, discounts, and some form of communityBuilding awareness through marketingActive on social media - Instagram, Facebook, YouTube are the main channels for the older MillennialsPartnerships with adjacent categories (e.g., nutritionists, health-conscious proponents)More in-person events in core markets - create more word of mouth presence, can't replicate the in-person tasting experiencePodcasts - saw some sales from the Inside Winemaking connection Get access to library episodes See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
This episode features an interview with Ben Matthews, Senior Director of Internal Communications at NVIDIA. Ben has spent his entire career in communications. He is a recognized industry leader and speaker who has previously worked for Google, eBay, and Crown Castle.In this episode, Ben and Amanda discuss building an internal comms program from scratch, how to prove value to leaders, and why internal communicators are the imagineers of business.-------------------“10 years ago, everyone that was saying they were internal communications, suddenly changed to be head of employee engagement. And now, I think you're seeing that change again from people changing from internal comms and employee engagement, to employee experience. And that's great because that shows progress. But, it's only progress if we're doing more than changing our names. If we're genuinely out there looking to influence. And the truth is, no one can own employee experience. It's too broad a subject for any one team to own. Where I do think we play is we can act as that connective tissue and glue to bring different people together.” – Ben Matthews-------------------Episode Timestamps:*(01:43): Ben's background*(03:32): Ben's current role at NVIDIA*(04:15): Segment: Story Time*(04:46): How Ben built an internal communications program from the ground up*(09:11): Segment: Seat at the Table*(10:40): How internal communicators can show value to leaders *(16:22): How internal communicators are the imagineers of business*(18:59): Segment: Ripped from the Headlines*(22:09): How Ben shifted his strategy in 2020*(33:28): Segment: Asking for a Friend-------------------Links:Connect with Ben on LinkedInNVIDIAAmanda's LinkedInwww.simpplr.com/podcast

BRAX Roofing services Montgomery County, and Washington DC and consists of a dedicated team of top-notch product specialists, designers, project managers and in house installers. Led by owners Ben Matthews and Boris Cardenas, the team at BRAX Roofing is a cohesive unit that strives for 100 percent customer satisfaction, highlighted by quality craftsmanship and durable products that last the test of time. Ben and Boris started their roofing business without a lot of capital, working out of Ben's basement, knocking on doors, and reinvesting every dollar. Ben talks about the lessons he learned from his first hire experience to executing a small team at a high level. By hiring good people and trusting them in their positions, Ben is able to streamline his processes, doubling down on what works for the company. Ben's biggest insight for other roofing contractors is to learn from other people's mistakes by reading, Googling, and listening to podcasts. He states, “If you don't learn from other people's mistakes, you're just setting yourself up years behind.” On this episode, with Ben Matthews from BRAX Roofing, we talk about the importance of surrounding your roofing business with the right processes and people in order to be successful.

The professional services landscape has changed with COVID-19. The more agile the firm, the better placed they were to ride out the storm. But even with this agility, COVID has brought with it the need to leave cash in your business – and the partnership model used by so many professional services firms doesn’t lend itself well to this. Will this mean the end of the partnership model and a move to an incorporated structure for some professional services firms? Hear from National Head of Professional Services, Ben Matthews, as he highlights how those in professional services have adapted to working remotely, and what 2020 and beyond will look like for the sector.
Near the end of the 2018 harvest I recorded this episode with Ben and Cameron after they had a chance to work with me at Seavey. I have known both of these guys since they came on the Deep Winemaking trip in 2017. Making the leap from a comfortable career to starting from the beginning as a winery intern requires significant sacrifice. Working a harvest is what I recommend to anyone who finds themselves pondering the first steps in winemaking. Ben and Cameron share their individual paths into wine and we have a frank conversation about the specifics of working in a winery for the first time.

On today’s show we host a conversation with Ben Matthews, one of the founders of digital marketing agency Montfort. Montfort focuses on strategy, communication and marketing for clients with a social impact, choosing to work almost exclusively with charities and non-profit organisations. The agency, whose other co-founder is Ben’s wife Jaz, grew organically out of both of their own experience and desire to work in this realm and was a natural step after their prior freelance work. I chat to Ben about Montfort, the reasons for starting it, his hopes for the future and why he is not rushing to make the company any bigger. With lots of insight and helpful advice for others in similar situations, this chat is a must-hear. Whether you are hoping to start your own company, looking for ways to improve an existing one or merely looking for some inspiration to do some good in the world around you, we’ve got you covered.
