"My data is too messy for AI."We hear it on almost every call. Barry Chiu thinks it's the wrong way round.Consider this a contractor's guide to data and AI.Nobody has clean data at the raw level. Not one contractor.You can't know how bad yours is until it's all in one place and you can put the systems side by side.When you find that job numbers don't match across two systems, that's your first win, not a setback.His line on it: "you're already a step ahead of a lot of people, because people are not even aware of how bad the data is."Waiting until your data is clean means waiting forever.In today's episode of Bricks & Bytes, we sit down with Barry Chiu, CEO and co-founder of Kroo, to unpack why the obsession with "clean data" is holding contractors back from using AI.Full episode out on YouTube and Spotify!

Hi everyone and welcome back to The Talk Music Podcast! For this episode, check out my deep dive with Aldo Nova. He's a Multi-Platinum recording artist, a major hit songwriter, and a genius producer whose career has dominated the airwaves for more than four decades. He first exploded onto the international music scene with his 1982 self-titled debut album, which went double platinum in the US and featured the iconic hit “Fantasy,” - a song that helped define the sound of 1980s rock and remains a staple on classic rock radio to this day. Aldo's genius didn't stop on the stage. Behind the scenes, he built a jaw-dropping second career crafting hits for some of the biggest icons on the planet. We're talking about his historic, long-standing partnership with Céline Dion—co-writing her massive global hit “A New Day Has Come” and earning a Grammy Award for Album of the Year for his work as a songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist on Falling Into You. His legendary chemistry with Jon Bon Jovi runs just as deep; after Aldo co-wrote the number-one hit “Blaze of Glory,” Jon returned the favour by signing Aldo to his own label. Together, the two masterminds co-wrote and co-produced Aldo's powerhouse comeback album, Blood on the Bricks. From his deep history with Céline Dion and Jon Bon Jovi to creating chart-topping hits with Faith Hill and Clay Aiken and many others, Aldo Nova remains a well respected and influential figure in the music industry. Whether on stage or in the studio, his work continues to resonate with audiences worldwide, and our chat is a deep dive into his incredible journey, his creative songwriting process, and what he's working on now. Enjoy the chat along with music clips from his first 3 albums, and his rock opera “The Life and Times of Eddie Gage”. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Anthropic's own alignment lead says there's a greater than 10% chance AI kills us all within a decade.He was backing up a researcher who'd just quit the company over exactly that.On this episode of Bricks, Bucks & Bytes, we read the entire doomsday scenario out loud: the data centres, the autonomous research, the whole thing. Then we picked it apart.Martin's take: it's a fairy tale that conveniently justifies more regulation. Dustin's take: the AI can't even build its own infrastructure without us, so who's actually building the robots to run it?Bernie Sanders wants to ban superintelligence outright. Anthropic's own safety lead admits nobody has a plan to stop it either way.Full breakdown in the episode..#ai #bricksbucksandbytes #constructiontech #bricksandbytesChapters00:00 Intro01:16 AI Extinction Risk: Are We Really in Danger?04:19 How AI Could Actually Wipe Out Humanity07:18 AI vs Architects: The Commoditization Threat10:18 Can AI Ever Be Truly Creative?13:11 AI, Laziness and the Erosion of Critical Thinking16:12 OpenAI's Astra: Designing Full Homes with AI27:38 $616M Funding Boom in AEC Startups30:34 Why Foundational Models Threaten Construction Startups33:17 VCs Pile Into Physical AI and Robotics35:57 Europe's Construction Industry in Freefall37:50 Rising Interest Rates Crush UK Housebuilders41:25 AI, the Fed and the Next Economic Crisis44:50 Apple's $2,000 Folding iPhone Verdict

As we mark 25 years since September 11, we're revisiting Ari Schonbrun's extraordinary story of survival. Ari worked for Cantor Fitzgerald on the 101st floor of the World Trade Center's North Tower. A series of seemingly ordinary delays left him running late that morning, placing him on the 78th floor when the first plane struck. Thrown to the ground by the impact and surrounded by smoke, fire, and chaos, Ari began searching for a way out. That search brought him to Virginia, a severely burned coworker who begged him not to leave her. Ari made her a promise and helped her down dozens of flights of stairs, refusing to abandon her even as they fought to escape with their lives. In this deeply moving conversation, Ari recounts the decisions, strangers, and extraordinary moments of Divine Providence that led them out of the tower, and how surviving September 11 forever changed his faith, his priorities, and the way he understands why he was spared.   Timestamps: 0:00 Intro 1:04 Not Taught in School 4:50 A Beautiful Tuesday Morning 11:25 First Plane Hits 14:08 A Woman Screaming for Help 17:03 Finding a Way Out 19:04 A Phone Call in the Stairwell 21:36 Is There a Paramedic in the Building? 25:32 Finds Out it's a Terrorist Attack 29:20 Breaking Down in His Brother's Arms 32:38 Go Hug the People You Love 34:40 Twenty People, A Hundred Messages 35:45 Daddy's Got to Work 38:00 One Mitzvah at a Time 43:33 Only Four Survived 47:20 The Smoky Taste the Next Morning 50:44 Find Your Mission 57:33 Can You Come In at 11? 59:30 Cantor Fitzgerald's Promise 1:01:19 Whispers and Bricks

Scaling a brand and protecting what makes it distinct aren't the same goal, and knowing the difference separates lasting growth from quiet erosion. For 23 years as CEO of Sonic Corp, Clifford Hudson guided the drive-in chain through decades of growth and helped engineer one of the quick-service restaurant (QSR) industry's most successful digital reinventions. Now co-author of Bricks and Clicks: How We Drove Sonic Into the Digital Age, Hudson joins Jeremy Goldman to unpack what it takes to scale a brand without losing what makes it distinct. INSIDE THE EPISODE: - Scaling without sacrificing differentiation. Why growth efficiencies belong in the "plumbing": purchasing, distribution, and physical operations. The pair examines why cutting corners on customer-facing brand elements in the name of scale can quietly undermine the brand it was meant to strengthen operations. - How Sonic turned drinks and ice cream into a signature advantage. A menu overhaul drove 12% systemwide comps in its first year and a 40% increase in average store-level profitability. Sonic reached $1 billion in system sales in 1997, then $2 billion four years later. - The CUPID framework for evaluating new strategies. Customer, Users, Profit, Innovation, and Differentiation: A filter Hudson and co-author Craig Miller use to determine whether a new initiative is actually worth pursuing. - Technology should serve the brand, not the other way around. How leaders can bring AI and digital tools into their business in ways that augment the customer experience instead of reshaping the brand around the technology. "Companies really should dig in on why things are going right just as they do when things don't go well." Listen above to hear Hudson's perspective on building brand loyalty that lasts, and what today's retail leaders can learn from one of QSR's most enduring transformations.

Send us Fan MailKeith and Brendan sit down with Pamela Stephens, who's spent over a decade shaping influencer and content strategy at 3M — the $25 billion company behind everyday staples like Post-it, Scotch, Command, and Scotch-Brite. Pamela shares how influencer marketing has evolved inside a massive, multi-brand organization and what it takes to get executives to invest in creator partnerships.News catchup covers Meta's landmark $12.2 billion youth safety settlement (with new age verification, screen time caps, and curfew rules for under-18 users on Instagram and Facebook), YouTube's shift to counting a view the instant a video starts playing, and the platform's push to lock in top creators with exclusive deals.Plus this week's Creator of the Week and Brand of the Week picks — including Germany's "Opa Werner," the ongoing Bricks & Minifigs LEGO drama, and a trio of brands (Lovesac, Callaway/Good Good Golf, and Neutrogena) that all learned the hard way what happens when you lose control of the narrative around your marketing.

"If you're considered a feature, you're dead."Klas Berghede has spent nearly twenty years at Boldt, a 100% employee owned contractor that has been building since 1889.We asked him whether there is still room for point solutions in construction tech.He said the door is closing.Adoption of AI across the industry is high. Measured improvement is close to zero. McKinsey's latest numbers back him up.Klas reckons roughly half the cost of a complex American build is no longer labour or material. It's the coordination around it.The near term winners will own a whole workflow end to end, not one clever step inside it.Half of ConTech will hate this. The other half already knew.In this episode of Bricks & Bytes, Klas argues that construction has an addiction to solving complex problems with complex solutions, that the industry starts every project from scratch and expects to improve anyway, and that the labour shortage is not the biggest problem we have.Episode out on Youtube and Spotify.#bricksandbytes #bricksbytes #aec #constructiontech #aiOur Sponsors:BreadCrumb- 50,000+ projects globally.

Brian and Jeff interview Glasgow-based award-winning writer, editor, and musician Neil Williamson about the relationship between horror and joy..Neil frames horror as the fun of “relishing the darkness” through traditions like Halloween and campy horror. Williamson recounts his path into writing via lyric-writing in a teenage band and into horror through the UK's Carry On Screaming, Universal monster films, and authors like Stephen King, James Herbert, and Ramsey Campbell. They discuss Neil's BSFA-winning anthology Blood and the Bricks, and how he has reworked folk-horror tropes by relocating isolation, insular communities, and mythology into urban settings. This move was influenced by his novella Charlie Says and UK public information films, Cold War fears, and post-Brexit political shifts. The conversation also touches on contemporary surveillance anxieties, highlights stories such as “Dance Macabre” and “Hagstone,” and ends with Williamson's recent horror-joy recommendations.

Bricks, Satellites and Space Safety  What does a failed satellite have to do with the Space Safety Economy?  In Episode 5 of Are We There Yet?, Tamara Bond-Williams speaks with Carol Craig, Founder and CEO of Sidus Space and Founder and CEO of Craig Technologies, about how safety is designed, tested, operated and valued inside real space missions.  Carol shares lessons from Sidus Space's LizzieSat missions, including why safety starts on the ground, why on-orbit learning matters and why software-defined satellites can preserve mission value after launch. The conversation explores redundancy, maneuverability, mission operations, autonomy, hyperspectral imaging, customer value and the importance of protecting the shared orbital environment.  Carol also points toward one of the key future markets in space safety: standardization. As on-orbit servicing, repair and deorbit capabilities develop, satellites will need standardized physical and communications interfaces that make those services practical, affordable and widely usable.  Sponsored by the American Space Exploration Children's Trust Fund. 

Four founders competing in construction layout walked into the same room.Nobody expected them to agree on much.But across the conversation, all four revealed the same thing about who they are really up against.Not each other.Tessa Lau, CEO and co-founder of Dusty Robotics: “Pretty much our biggest competitor is chalk lines and measuring tape.”William St-Pierre, CEO of Mechasys: “Our biggest competitor today is like DeWalt or Milwaukee with their tape measures.”Tomer Elran, co-founder of LIGHTYX: “They are not transferring from one technology to the other. They're transforming from almost zero technology.”Derrick Morse, founder and CEO of Rugged Robotics, on HP entering the category: “HP has a marketing machine and a budget that I can only dream of. So for them to enter the race and to participate, I think is a net net win for everyone.”Eight rounds. Sixty-second answer caps. No slides.They debated accuracy, distribution, union adoption, capital, robots versus laser projection and whether construction layout could become a winner-take-all market.It took us more than eight months to get these four founders into the same room.Huge thanks to Christian Reed, founder and CEO of REEKON Tools, for moderating and to Tessa, Derrick, William and Tomer for taking part.#bricksandbytes #construction #constructiontech #constructionrobotics #aec**Chapters**00:00 Intro01:00 Why Construction Layout Is Ready for Automation02:51 Meet the Four Founders Competing for the Floor05:44 Chalk Lines, Tape Measures and 5,000 Years of Habit08:50 Debris, Dust and the Mess Nobody Plans For11:37 The $18M Hospital That Reportedly Saved $2.5M14:49 HP Entered the Market.

Let us know what you think!Episode OverviewHittin' the Bricks with Kathleen is the genealogy podcast that features your questions and her answers, exploring the records, places, and historical context that help families uncover difficult and forgotten stories.In this episode, Kathleen speaks with Mark Schindler, Rebba Omer, and Daniel Feldman about the Forgotten Children Initiative and what happens when historical research into youth prisons leads to the discovery of children buried in neglected and forgotten cemeteries.The conversation traces a path from Maryland to the Missouri Training School for Boys in Boonville, Missouri, where research uncovered another forgotten cemetery and raised difficult questions about race, institutional history, access, ethics, and how genealogists can help reconnect families with children whose stories were nearly lost.If you would like to help with this initiative, Contact: Rebba Omer at ro295@georgetown.eduIn This Episode, You'll LearnHow historical research into juvenile institutions can lead to forgotten burial groundsWhy death certificates are an essential starting point for forensic genealogyHow annual reports, institutional archives, and facility newspapers can identify individuals when names are missingWhat racial segregation and historical disparities reveal about institutional recordsHow genealogists can assist with family identification and restorative justiceWhy access, permissions, and family involvement matter when researching burial sitesTopics CoveredThe origins of the Forgotten Children Initiative at Georgetown's Center for Youth JusticeHistorical research into youth facilities and hidden burial sites in MarylandThe Missouri Training School for Boys in Boonville, MissouriResearch into Boonville's forgotten cemeteryJuvenile justice history and its connection to the presentRacial segregation and disparities in institutional historyDeath certificates as a starting point for forensic genealogyAnnual reports, archives, and institutional newspapersIdentifying individuals when names are incomplete or missingRestorative justice, memorials, and family-guided decisionsAccess and research permissions for burial grounds on Department of Corrections propertyEpisode Discussion & Key MomentsKathleen and her guests explore how a historical investigation can grow into a larger effort to identify forgotten children, locate burial sites, and reconnect families with relatives whose lives disappeared into institutional records.The discussion begins with the origins of the Forgotten Children Initiative and research into youth facilities in Maryland. That work uncovered evidence of neglected burial grounds and created a broader effort to identify the children buried there and locate their descendants.The conversation then turns to Boonville, Missouri, where research into the Missouri Training School for Boys led to the discovery of another forgotten cemetery. The guests discuss how a seemingly simple search can open a much larger investigation involving institutional records, death certificates, annual reports, newspapers, archives, and historical patterns of racial segregation.The episode also addresses the ethical responsibilities involved in forensic genealogy and cemetery research. Identifying a person is only one part of the work. Questions of access, permissions, memorialization, and family involvement remain essential—particularly when burial grounds are located on government or Department of Corrections property.Key questions examined include:How do genealogists begin identifying individuals buried in forgotten cemeteries?What records can help when a person's name is missing or incomplete?How does institutional history reveal patterns of racial inequality?What does restorative justice look like when families are finally connected with a forgotten relative?Who should make decisions about memorials and the treatment of historic burial grounds?Resources & Research Tools MentionedDeath certificatesInstitutional annual reportsJuvenile facility archivesInstitutional and facility newspapersCemetery and burial recordsHistorical records relating to racial segregationForensic genealogy research methodsDepartment of Corrections records and property access proceduresWhy This Episode MattersGenealogy is not limited to building family trees. It can also help restore names, identities, and histories to people who were marginalized, institutionalized, and forgotten.This episode demonstrates how genealogists, historians, archivists, and families can work together to investigate neglected cemeteries and recover the stories of children whose lives were often reduced to incomplete institutional records. It also asks an important question: once these individuals are identified, how do we respectfully return their stories to the families and communities connected to them?About the PodcastHittin' the Bricks with Kathleen is the genealogy podcast that features your questions and her answers, helping listeners explore overlooked records, difficult family histories, and the historical context that shapes the stories we inherit.Support the showBe sure to bookmark linktr.ee/hittinthebricks  for your one stop access to Kathleen Brandt, the host of Hittin' the Bricks with Kathleen.

I'm from Los Angeles. So when I picked up Dr. Terrell Winder's Shameless: The Making of Black Gay Identities in LA, it read like a love letter to a home I'm watching change—and a map of how young Black gay men build family, selfhood, and joy inside all that change anyway.This week, Dr. Winder—sociologist and urban ethnographer at UC Santa Barbara—pulls up to the classroom to teach us unspoiling: his framework for refusing shame and rejecting the burden of stigma outright, no matter what it costs. We get into the affirming spaces that keep our babies alive and why they're under attack right now; why intersectionality can't keep being told to wait its turn; and what Noah's Arc's first-ever Emmy nomination means in a season when Black and Black gay stories are being pulled off shelves.Because when you take these spaces away, Dr. Winder is clear about what we lose: lives.Go get the book, sit with it, and then go build a room where somebody can put their burden down.About the guestDr. Terrell J. A. Winder is Associate Professor of Sociology at UC Santa Barbara. A Baltimore native, he earned his B.A. in Comparative Ethnic Studies from Columbia and his Ph.D. in Sociology from UCLA (2017). His research spans race and ethnicity, sexuality and sexual health, qualitative methods, and education.Key ideas & theoryUnspoiling — Dr. Winder's framework: a stigma response that centers the stigmatized person rather than the comfort of the stigmatizer; refusing shame instead of managing it.Spoiled identity / stigma — Erving Goffman's foundational concept, and the classic responses of passing and covering that Dr. Winder argues break down for people carrying more than one stigma at once.Intersectional stigma & "intersectional recovery" — holding race, sexuality, and gender together rather than deferring one for later; recovering the full selves of figures history flattened."Visibility is survival" — his argument that ethnography documents threatened histories and everyday Black LGBTQ life.People mentionedErving Goffman — sociologist, Stigma and the "spoiled identity."Dr. Marcus Anthony Hunter — sociologist and chair of African American Studies at UCLA; credited with first posting the hashtag #BlackLivesMatter (August 2012); the BLM movement/network was later co-founded by Alicia Garza, Patrisse Cullors, and Opal Tometi. Co-author with Dr. Winder of "Space, Place, and Urban Future."Bayard Rustin — Black gay civil rights strategist, chief organizer of the 1963 March on Washington.George Washington Carver — scientist cited as an example of a flattened, partially-told legacy.Patrik-Ian Polk — creator of Noah's Arc.Organizations & spacesBetter Brothers Los Angeles / The Truth Awards. Native Son.Hilltop Coffee + Kitchen (Issa Rae's LA spot) and Bricks & Scones (Larchmont). Media & cultureNoah's ARC — Patrik-Ian Polk's groundbreaking series, the first scripted show centering Black gay men; Noah's ARC: The Movie (the 20th-anniversary reunion) earned a 2026 Emmy nomination for Outstanding Choreography, the franchise's first-ever Television Academy recognition.Pose, Insecure — referenced in conversation and This or That.My Best Friend Rodney — Rodney Chester's interview podcast.Anita Baker & Luther Vandross — the This or That showdown.Further reading — Dr. Winder's scholarshipShameless: The Making of Black Gay Identities in LA (NYU Press, 2026)."Unspoiling Identity: An Intersectional Expansion of Stigma Response Strategies" (Sociology of Race and Ethnicity, 2023)."Visibility Is Survival: The Chocolate Maps of Black Gay Life in Urban Ethnography."Marcus Anthony Hunter & Terrell J.

Jeremiah 38:10–11Then the king commanded Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, “Take thirty men with you from here, and lift Jeremiah the prophet out of the cistern before he dies.” So Ebed-melech took the men with him and went to the house of the king, to a wardrobe in the storehouse, and took from there old rags and worn-out clothes, which he let down to Jeremiah in the cistern by ropes.In an earlier episode called "Bricks, Rags, and Mercy" (episode 217), I shared how Ebed-melech showed mercy by using old rags and worn-out clothes to make Jeremiah's rescue much less harsh than ropes alone.Mercy softens the rough edges of life in this world—whether through rags, old clothes, casseroles, songs, a cold cup of water, or a brick on a step.You'll have to listen to discover how two bricks on the top step of a community pool, a family of fuzzy little ducklings, and a year-long question became another reminder of God's mercy. Then, one year later, eight new ducklings arrived… and the story wasn't over.If you would like to support this podcast with a monthly or one-time gift, thank you!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.sherriyoungward.com/support⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠To find out about upcoming gatherings and new projects, please join my email list at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.sherriyoungward.com

In the Mackenzie Shirilla case, the Ohio Supreme Court denied jurisdiction over an "untimely" appeal filed during a leap year, prompting a new motion for reconsideration based on a potential split of legal authority. Additionally, the federal court has significantly limited a previously "horrific" temporary restraining order against Reckless Ben, while simultaneously requesting clarification on the LLC's members to confirm diversity jurisdiction. Finally, an extension was granted in the TikTok psychic $10 million defamation appeal, with her opening brief now due at the end of July.
