Einon's Journal Summary: Our conversation with the Wilders was surprising, especially in regards to an alleged wraith that hunts them. I made an offer about dealing with this threat, which I hoped will appease our new friends. Maxine expertly maneuvered the deal in a way which Selwyn, I'm sure, appreciates. Kade seemed keen on constructing a helm similar to the Wilders, which I would find rather fetching. With that done, we look ahead to what's next. ------ Content Warning: Language ------ You can support The Critshow through our Patreon to get more weekly TTRPG Actual Play content, access to our discord community, and much more!

In this episode of the Iowa Manufacturing Podcast, we talk with serial entrepreneur Dave Haney, who shares his strategic pivot from brokering shipping and freight to brokering energy, specifically natural gas, in Iowa. With the current economy causing revenue shortfalls for many manufacturers, Dave explains how Iowa's unique unregulated natural gas market offers significant opportunities for cost savings. Many manufacturers are unaware that they can separate their natural gas supply from their existing provider and shop for a better fit, and Dave sheds light on how this little-known strategy can help reduce expenses. Dave's foresight in transitioning from the tightening freight industry to energy brokerage showcases his adaptability and deep understanding of market dynamics. Beyond brokering energy, his services include energy management with a sophisticated dashboard that tracks usage and flags inconsistencies, enabling companies to better control their energy costs. This conversation highlights how innovative solutions and proactive pivots can help manufacturers weather economic challenges while optimizing their operations.

In Episode 263 Brokering New Construction: Strategies for Agents, we jump into the crucial aspects of handling new construction projects as a real estate agent. Understanding the timeline for new constructions is fundamental, as delays are a common occurrence. Setting realistic expectations and maintaining open communication lines among the buyer, builder, and agent is emphasized to navigate these challenges smoothly. We also explore the financial intricacies involved in new construction deals, highlighting the necessity for agents to be transparent about the total cost, including potential upgrades and unforeseen expenses. Offering guidance on how agents can assist clients in staying within their budget by preemptively discussing additional costs is a key focus of this segment. The episode contrasts the intricacies of ground-up construction with the process of buying builder-completed homes. While ground-up construction allows for extensive customization, it demands a comprehensive understanding of initial costs, such as land purchase and construction permits. On the other hand, opting for a builder-completed home offers a more streamlined process, with a focus on the final sale price and what's included, simplifying the buying experience for clients. This episode equips agents with the knowledge to adeptly guide their clients through the complexities of new construction purchases, ensuring a successful and satisfying outcome.

In this episode we discuss that in Massachusetts there is no formal business broker license. When selling a business without real estate included there is no licensure requirement. When selling a business that includes real estate there is the need for a real estate salesperson's license. Without that license you would be in violation of Massachusetts law. While there is no licensing requirement the process of business brokering is complex. A good business broker has a large referral network of professionals to help the entrepreneur successfully sell and purchase businesses.

In light of the recent Hamas terrorist attacks in Israel and subsequent Israeli military action in Gaza, The Burn Bag is re-releasing several episodes A'ndre and Ryan recorded during the 2021 Israeli-Palestinian crisis, aiming to assess the history of the broader Israeli-Palestinian and Arab-Israeli conflicts, highlighting a multitude of perspectives. We hope that you listen to all of these re-releases, in an effort to gain a deeper understanding of this conflict.[Originally Released on 6/3/2021] In this special episode, A'ndre and Ryan speak with Nabil Fahmy,  Founding Dean of the American University in Cairo's School of Global Affairs and Public Policy and former Egyptian Foreign Minister. Dean Fahmy shares his perspective on the recent Gaza War and Egypt's historical role in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Dean Fahmy digs into Egypt's relationship with Israel, the Palestinian Authority, and Hamas, while giving his prognosis on the path ahead in the more than seventy year conflict. He also discusses Egypt's unique geopolitical position as an African and Asian power, and how this informs its foreign policy and relationship with regional and international actors, such as the United States. The conversation concludes with a discussion on Egypt's future and how the younger generation can bring positive change.NOTE: In A'ndre's introduction, he mentioned that Professor Rashid Khalidi was a negotiator for the PLO. The correct statement is that he was an advisor to the Palestinian delegation to the Madrid and Washington Arab-Israeli peace negotiations from October 1991 until June 1993.

There’s an entire industry built around making money off personal information that’s gathered online. Companies known as data brokers collect it, then sell it to other parties. California tried to tackle this problem a couple of years ago, giving consumers the right to ask that companies delete their information. But actually doing that is tedious. Consumers have to make the request one company at a time. A bill passed by California lawmakers this month aims to change that by allowing one request to apply to all data brokers. SB 362, also known as the Delete Act, would additionally require brokers to register with the state. At this point, the legislation needs Gov. Gavin Newsom’s signature to become law. Jessica Rich, a senior policy adviser for consumer protection at the law firm Kelley Drye, laid out the stakes of the issue for Marketplace’s Lily Jamali.
