Let's move past the tired “Is AI a bubble?” debate and ask the bigger question: What happens after the buildout—when trillions of dollars of AI data centers translate into real economic output. Co-hosts Ben Miller and Cardiff Garcia frame AI as a new kind of factory—massive capex producing tokens that can be converted into real white-collar work. Then Ben grounds it with concrete Fundrise examples—AI handling a large share of customer support, strengthening cybersecurity workflows, reshaping marketing/copywriting, and boosting engineering productivity—before zooming out to the macro implications: faster growth, disinflationary pressure, shifting labor vs. capital dynamics, and the possibility of lower rates if productivity wins out. They also wrestle with the messy part—how adoption, politics, and policy could determine whether AI becomes a broad-based win, a lopsided win-lose, or a stagnation-inducing backlash—and close on practical ideas for adaptation, especially for younger workers. — For a deeper dive into these insights and more, be sure to listen to the full episode of the Onward podcast.

Has real estate finally bottomed? Ben Miller, CEO of Fundrise (managing over $7B in real estate), says it's so. And he's not just talking about commercial real estate. If true, one particular type of real estate investment could do exceptionally well over the next year, but most people (even Dave!) are going in a different direction. Where could the next big real estate boom happen? We're getting into it! To continue this prediction season, Ben joins us to walk through a few crucial economic outlooks that could greatly affect the housing market. From AI stunting hiring to inflation actually going down (below 2%!), American wage trends changing dramatically, and the assets that will perform best, we're getting his take as someone who manages billions of dollars in real estate. Want mortgage rates to go down? We need lower inflation, and Ben says there's good news on the horizon for stable prices. New technology adoption could lead to much lower inflation (even deflation in some cases). Could this be what reignites the housing market as mortgage rates react to a more stable economy? Ben gives his full take, with some surprises even Dave wasn't prepared for. In This Episode We Cover The bottom for real estate prices? Why Ben thinks it's here (or very close) The end of runaway inflation: How AI could kill the concern over rising costs More Americans making less, and what happens when AI takes tens of millions of jobs The one type of residential real estate that is poised to perform best in 2026  A new AI tool that could be pivotal for rental property investing research And So Much More!

Moses' incredible story reaches an impossible moment.  As they leave Egypt, God leads them into the dead end of the Red Sea and we glean some beautiful lessons along the way.

Guest co-host Ben Miller, Shoptalk's VP of Original Content and Strategy joins to provide expert analysis and we interview Lauren Sherman, the acclaimed fashion correspondent at Puck and author of Selling Sexy: Victoria's Secret and the Unraveling of an American IconThe episode kicks off with a rich news segment, where the trio unpacks the latest forces shaping retail and the economy. Amazon's strong Q3 earnings headline the week, with third-party marketplace growth and ad revenues surging 24%. The conversation then pivots to the consumer landscape, where CPG brands lean on pricing over volume, private-label growth accelerates, and Estee Lauder's rebound in China might hint at green shoots in luxury demand.From there, the hosts explore the AI revolution's ripple through the workforce, with Ben outlining how global companies are reorganizing around “agentic transformation” as human and machine intelligence increasingly converge. He notes that the average IQ of today's AI agents already exceeds 130—with future leaps that will reshape every operating model. The segment closes with Steve's macro overview: U.S.–China tariff recalibrations, Fed policy shifts, and warning signs of consumer softening among younger cohorts.In the feature interview, Lauren Sherman offers a masterclass on the shifting foundations of global fashion and luxury. From the post-pandemic boom to today's demand reset, she dissects how the Chinese slowdown, pricing strategy saturation, and the direct-to-consumer explosion are redrawing the map for brands like LVMH, Hermès, and Prada. Lauren argues that “untouchable” luxury houses are now confronting the limits of endless growth, and that resale and rental markets have permanently altered consumer psychology—embedding secondhand luxury as a normalized part of the buying journey.She also explores social media's transformation under AI, Hollywood's over-reliance on fashion partnerships, and why the luxury world's obsession with celebrity campaigns may have reached saturation.The episode also previews ShopTalk Luxe, the new Abu Dhabi-based event connecting the global luxury ecosystem. The hosts wrap by spotlighting the AI data-center boom, the rise of GLP-1-driven nutrition trends, and the surprising revival of British department stores.

Animal health and biosecurity are being threatened globally by a few different diseases and virus'. Ben Jarboe gets the spooky outlook from Jamie Jonker, Chief Science officer with the national milk producers federation. HPAI as a threat to dairy has been talked about often, but other conditions like Lumpy Skin disease, FMD, and new world screw worm remind producers to stay on their toes. He gives an update on each and shares reasons why we should watch them even if they are not in the US. Quiet weather pattern for this week. Rain showers are a possibility everyday - but not much for overall accumulation. Wisconsin is home to one commercial grade cottage cheese producer and they're being overwhelmed with demand! Westby Cooperative Creamery, Wisconsin’s only cottage cheese manufacturer, is investing $14.1 million to modernize its Westby facility. Emily Bialkowski, sales and marketing manager, says the project will meet surging consumer demand for cottage cheese, which has seen sales jump nationwide. With all current capacity sold out, the investment ensures long-term stability for the creamery to stay competitive in the growing high-protein, "clean-label" market. There will be no federal aid going to the nation's farmers until the federal government is back in action. Chad Smith tells us that the American Farm Bureau Federation sent letters to the president and Congress telling them how important getting back to work is for the nation's farmers.

Wisconsin dairy farmers, cheese makers and dairy processors continue to evaluate the international marketplace for opportunities. Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin helps them pursue those opportunities. Chad Vincent, CEO of Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin says despite tariff talk, demand for Wisconsin's specialty cheeses, as well as things like dried milk, keep finding favor in the international marketplace. Vincent says continuing to focus on that arena is critical since approximately 95% of the global population is outside the United States. Making sure that industry partners understand what influences Wisconsin dairy is part of the mission of Ben Miller's work. He's the Senior Vice President of Industry Relations for Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin. His job is to make sure wherever there's questions about Wisconsin dairy - informational and educational resources are there. From helping lawmakers understand the needs of the dairy industry, to supplying food distributors stories about Wisconsin dairy - Miller's there to help. He stresses that DFW is not allowed to lobby, but providing education and information helps everyone. ‘Born to Dairy’ is one new campaign that was launched during World Dairy Expo that should help everyone see themselves as a part of Wisconsin dairy. With the creative help of Charlie Berens, the campaign highlights the different styles of Wisconsin dairy farmers that help drive the industry. Berens says he's always intrigued by the different sizes, styles and types of dairies that he visits in Wisconsin. He loves the products, but he really loves the stories behind the products. He tells Pam Jahnke about what it took to help pull the stories together, and what he's looking forward to going forward. Forget Hollywood casting. The “Born to Dairy” campaign stars real Wisconsin farmers, families, and dairy community members, from DFW board members to Professional Dairy Producers (PDP) to the 78th Alice in Da­­iryland.

Scott Plank—who helped build Under Armour from the ground up, was the largest angel investor in WeWork, and is a seed investor in Fundrise—joins us to share what it really feels like to bet everything, lose big, win bigger, and keep moving forward. In this conversation, Scott traces his path from building homes as a carpenter and selling bracelets in Guatemala to helping Under Armour grow from a family startup into a billion-dollar public company. He explains the financing strategies that kept the company alive in its early days, the lessons of scaling operations under intense pressure, and why he believes Under Armour couldn't be founded the way they did in today's world. Scott also shares his experience as the largest angel investor in WeWork, unpacking why he saw value where others didn't, and how he navigated both the spectacular rise and fall of the company. Along the way, he reflects on risk—when to push all in, when to shut things down, and how entrepreneurship is often about knowing when the world has changed. Finally, he discusses his ongoing work in real estate and technology, including data centers and community development, and offers advice for the next generation of entrepreneurs. For Scott, the throughline is clear: success depends not just on grit, but on aligning values, timing, and the willingness to evolve when circumstances demand it. — For a deeper dive into these insights and more, be sure to listen to the full episode of the Onward podcast.

Fall Retreat Session 1 – Friday PM   (2 Kings 5:1-14; Luke 7:11-19; Matthew 14:22-33; Luke 5:12-13)

Since 2022, commercial real estate (CRE) investors have endured one of the toughest stretches in decades. Surging inflation drove mortgage rates higher, cap rates expanded, and property values sank. The mantra became clear: “survive until 2025.” Now, with inflation cooling, rates easing, and capital returning, the tide may finally be turning. In this episode, I sit down with Ben Miller, CEO of Fundrise, who shares why he's more optimistic about CRE's future—and why the next three years could be far better than the last. Invest In CRE In A Diversified Way If you're looking to gain exposure to commercial real estate, take a look at Fundrise. Founded in 2012, Fundrise now manages over $3 billion for 380,000+ investors. Their focus is on residential-oriented commercial real estate in lower-cost markets - assets that tend to be more resilient than office or retail. Throughout the downturn, Fundrise continued deploying capital to capture opportunities at lower valuations. Now, as the CRE cycle turns, they're well-positioned to benefit from the rebound. The minimum investment is just $10, making it easy to dollar-cost average over time. I've personally invested six figures into Fundrise's CRE offerings, and I appreciate that their long-term approach aligns with my own. Fundrise has also been a long-time sponsor of Financial Samurai, which speaks to our shared investment philosophy.

Talking Tigers pays a special tribute to Kamdyn McIntosh on this week’s show. The TT team recount their memories, both on-field and off-field, of the dual premiership Tiger who played his last game for the Club in the final home-and-away round of the 2025 season and tell why he is such a great Richmond man. Also, in the latest episode of the Club’s podcast juggernaut, there’s plenty of praise for much-improved Tiger key defender Ben Miller, as well as Sam Banks, Tylar Young, Taj Hotton and Seth Campbell. The “Going up the Country” segment focuses on a West Australian coastal town where a Richmond excitement machine of the late-1980s-early 1990s hailed from. “60 Years of MCG Memories” features the Tigers’ glorious, drought-breaking 1967 premiership triumph. While, in “Hidden Tigerland”, club historian Rhett Bartlett has fascinating details on Richmond’s decision to forfeit a Grand Final during its VFA days. For all things Yellow and Black, tune in to Talking Tigers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a textWe all know movement is good for us. But can the right kind of exercise actually slow the aging process itself?In this episode, Dr. Kevin White talks with Benjamin Miller, Ph.D., professor of aging research at OMRF and past president of the American Aging Association, about what really happens to our muscles and mitochondria as we age, and how his new NIH-funded clinical trial is working to answer one of the most important questions in longevity science: why do some people respond to exercise better than others?"Every drug we study is just trying to be as good as exercise — and exercise still wins."Dr. Miller explains the biology of aging in plain language, from protein damage to energy production, and shares why exercise still outperforms any “miracle drug” on the market. He also unpacks the design of his new trial, where people 60 and older will receive supervised training, advanced health testing, and wearables to measure everything from VO₂ max to sleep — all with the goal of predicting who benefits most from which type of exercise.In this episode:Why exercise is still the closest thing we have to a longevity drugHow mitochondria and protein health drive resilience as we ageWhat VO₂ max actually measures — and why it predicts lifespanThe role of genetics vs. lifestyle in how our bodies respond to trainingHow to get involved in Dr. Miller's NIH-backed exercise study at OMRFThis conversation is a reminder that slowing aging isn't about hacks or shortcuts — it's about moving, staying engaged, and using science to make every decade stronger than the last.

On the latest episode of the Financial Samurai podcast, I sat down with Ben Miller, cofounder and CEO of Fundrise, for a deep dive into AI, venture capital, and what it really takes to get into the best deals. Key Takeaways from the Podcast 1. AI Growth and Market Dynamics Revenue growth is accelerating in big AI companies like Anthropic. There's an AI benchmarking race where many products seem similar, but differentiation still matters—Ben Miller doesn't believe AI is a commodity at all. The biggest AI players continue to extend their lead, creating a “winner-take-most” dynamic. 2. Venture Capital Strategy and Concentration How much concentration is acceptable in a venture fund: up to 50% of the portfolio can be concentrated in just two companies. Importance of building a pipeline (“bench”) of potential giants like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Databricks. Leveraging scouts in key hubs like San Francisco to source the next wave of private growth companies. 3. Valuation and Economic Concepts Growth-Adjusted Revenue Multiple as a more nuanced valuation approach for high-growth companies. Baumol Effect – rising costs in labor-intensive sectors despite limited productivity gains, and how this might influence AI adoption and consumer behavior. 4. Access and Allocation Challenges Figma IPO: Allocation was difficult even for well-connected investors; demand for strong growth companies far outstrips supply. Innovation Fund's approach: invested in 6 of the top 50 companies on the CNBC Disruptor list. The battle of connections and wealth—strong networks often determine who gets into the best deals. See related post:  The Futility Of Chasing Allocation In A Hot IPO Company 5. Strategic Advantages for Investors Directing a 2M+ user base to both invest in and use portfolio company products (examples: Ramp, Flywheel) as a growth driver. Using product adoption to create a feedback loop of higher valuations and more capital access. 6. Macro Perspectives on AI China's optimistic, aggressive push into AI contrasts with America's more cautious and sometimes pessimistic stance. Why I'm personally increasing my allocation to AI—both as a long-term growth opportunity and as a hedge against missing the next big wave. Invest in Private Growth Companies With Fundrise Companies are staying private longer, which means more gains go to early private investors rather than the public. If you don't want to fight in the IPO “Hunger Games” for scraps, consider Fundrise Venture. About 80% of the Fundrise venture portfolio is in artificial intelligence—an area I'm extremely bullish on. In 20 years, I don't want my kids asking why I ignored AI when it was still early. The investment minimum is just $10, compared with $200,000+ for most traditional venture funds (if you can even get in). You can also see exactly what the fund holds before you invest, and you don't need to be an accredited investor.

Pillay argues the U.S. is about to sink 10x the capital it took to create the Interstate Highway System into new data center capacity, racing toward “hundreds of gigawatts” of compute—each gigawatt-scale campus drawing more power than a major city.  — For a deeper dive into these insights and more, be sure to listen to the full episode of the Onward podcast.
