In this episode, Levi Harrill joins Matt in the studio for a conversation that blends nostalgia, craftsmanship, and the pure joy of keeping hot‑rodding alive. Levi shares how his grandpa first pulled him into the car scene—starting with those 99‑cent Hot Wheels that sparked a lifelong obsession.He talks about his soft spot for pre‑war iron from the teens, 20s, and 30s, the truck that slipped through his fingers, and what he brought to the Rat Stock Build Off. Levi also breaks down the lineup of cars he had to choose from for the High Class Trash Invitational and the inspiration behind the vision he ultimately chased.Matt and Levi dig into how different generations approach their builds, the trial‑and‑error process of figuring out what works (and what definitely doesn't), and the emotional payoff of hitting that magical “running and driving” moment. They also shine a light on the car community—how inclusive, down‑to‑earth, and genuinely supportive it can be when people come together simply to enjoy their builds.And yes… they even talk about a town so small it has a dealership that sells both Ford and Chevy under one roof.This one's all about passion, people, and keeping the culture alive.

Robinhood isn't just adding another crypto feature—it's assembling a new exchange stack: stock tokens, an Ethereum L2 built for real-world assets, and a wallet that can plug into DeFi. Johann Kerbrat (GM of Crypto at Robinhood) joins Bankless to unpack what “24/7 markets” actually requires, why liquidity and routing are the hidden battleground for tokenized equities, and how “Certified by Robinhood” could become a distribution moat for onchain apps. Along the way, they compare Robinhood's approach to tokenization with the NYSE's 24/7 tokenized platform plans and Nasdaq's tokenized securities proposal, and dig into what U.S. regulatory clarity would need to unlock stock tokens stateside.

Mrinank Sharma led the Safeguards Research Team at Anthropic, the company behind Claude AI. On February 9th, he posted a resignation letter saying “the world is in peril” and announced he's leaving to study poetry and “become invisible.”That same day, AI startup founder Matt Shumer published a long essay comparing this moment to February 2020, right before Covid changed everything. He says we're in the “this seems overblown” phase of something much bigger.In this video, I break down both of their messages, what they actually said vs. what the headlines are claiming, and what it means for anyone trying to navigate the next few years of AI.This isn't doom and gloom. But it is a wake-up call.Topics covered:• Mrinank Sharma's resignation letter from Anthropic• Matt Shumer's essay on the current state of AI• Why safety researchers are leaving AI labs• GPT-5.3 Codex and Claude Opus 4.6: what changed• AI building itself: what that actually means• What leaders, business owners, and professionals should do right now• How to position yourself before the window closes

What happens when you sit down with a lighting designer who's spent two decades navigating one of the world's most dynamic, culturally complex markets—and ask him how culture, design, and architecture really intersect?In this episode of LytePOD, host Sam Koerbel travels to Dubai to sit down with Siddharth (Sid) Mathur, a veteran lighting designer who has witnessed firsthand the transformation of a city that went from drilling pilings for the Burj Khalifa to becoming one of the most internationally influential design hubs in the world. This isn't a conversation about fixtures or specifications—it's a deep dive into the forces that shape how we design, who we design for, and why understanding people is the single most important skill a designer can have.Sid walksreveals why uniformity is the death of design, why a 70-year-old client and a 25-year-old client want completely different things from their lighting (even if they live in the same city), and why the most important part of any project isn't the rendering—it's the person-to-person connection that makes everything else possible.But this conversation goes deeper. It's about the tension between creative vision and client expectation, the exhausting reality of juggling five different cultural contexts in a single day, and why lighting design—despite all its challenges—remains one of the most rewarding professions for those willing to treat it like the marathon it is. Cedar shares why he pushes the envelope on every project, why lighting is the makeup that keeps the perfect marriage of architecture and culture going, and why one person's sparkle is always another person's glare.
To watch a video version of this podcast, click here: https://youtu.be/0US0bHGynQoIn this episode, Reuben Saltzman and Tessa Murry once again welcome Structure Tech's Service Manager, Eric Houseman, for a deep dive into one of the most debated topics in home inspections: flashing and exterior water management. Prompted by an email from fellow home inspector Chris, the discussion explores real-world challenges with flashing details, siding clearances, and the gap between best practices and industry standards. The episode highlights why these details are often overlooked, how that impacts homes, and what inspectors and homeowners should know to avoid costly hidden damage. Here's the link to Inspector Empire Builder: https://www.iebcoaching.com/eventsTakeaways“No damage yet” is not a valid reason to ignore improper flashing—problems can take years to surface.You often cannot confirm the absence of damage without intrusive inspection, so assumptions are risky.Even small, undersized, or poorly angled kick‑out flashings can increase water intrusion potential.Head flashing/drip caps above windows and doors are universally required by manufacturers—even if local builders claim otherwise.Context matters: overhangs, siding type, wall assembly, and home age affect how serious missing flashing is.Water‑resistant barriers and tape alone cannot replace properly installed rigid flashing.When in doubt, report the defect clearly and let the builder or homeowner decide the next steps.Home inspectors must balance clarity, liability, and real‑world practicality when writing reports.Builder and agent pushback is common—but manufacturer instructions are the ultimate authority.Good bedside manner and client communication can prevent inspectors from being labeled “deal killers.”Chapters00:00 Intro and episode setup00:27 Welcoming back Eric Houseman00:56 Show sponsor: IEB01:40 Listener Chris's email and the topic of exterior water‑management defects02:47 Question 1: Kick‑out flashing05:23 Undersized or improperly angled kick‑outs06:15 “There's no damage—why mention it?”08:06 When and why Structure Tech calls out inadequate kick‑outs09:43 Real‑world builder behavior and simple fixes11:11 How wording in reports focuses on increased potential for problems12:10 Balancing best practice and liability13:53 Question 2: Drip caps and head flashing17:12 Why windows and openings universally require rigid flashing18:37 Builder pushback: “It's not required.”21:07 What siding manufacturers expect (and why it matters)24:03 Considering home age, siding type, and overhangs25:46 A continuum of concern: stucco vs. vinyl28:08 How Structure Tech phrases drip‑cap comments29:12 Question 3: Z‑flashing, drainage gaps, and siding clearance31:57 Manufacturer requirements vs. real‑world installations32:46 Structure Tech's canned report language36:57 Should you mention missing kick‑outs on older homes?

Most Catholic men pray in the morning, go to Mass on Sunday, then spend most of their lives believing their work has nothing to do with holiness.That lie is costing men their strength, discipline, and authority.In this episode of The Manly Catholic, we bring you a hard-hitting conversation with Fr. Dom, priest, welder, and chaplain at Harmel Academy of the Trades, originally aired on the House of the Builder podcast. This is not a motivational talk about “finding purpose.” This is a restoration of the Catholic vision of work as a weapon in spiritual warfare.Jesus Christ was not weak. He was a tecton — a laborer who worked with His hands, under authority, alongside other men. St. Joseph did the same. God forms men through labor, obedience, responsibility, and sacrifice. When men reject that formation, the enemy steps in.Fr. Dominic exposes the false divide between prayer and labor and shows how attention to detail, endurance, submission to authority, and showing up every day forge men capable of leading families and resisting the devil.This episode issues a clear challenge to Catholic men:Stop wasting your workday spiritually. Offer your labor to God. Work with discipline. Eliminate complaint. Let your job form you into a man who can carry weight.Listen carefully. Then go back to work differently today.3 Key Quotes“God forms men through responsibility, not comfort.”“Every act of labor matters when it is offered to God.”“When men stop guarding the garden, the enemy walks in.”Your CHALLENGEYour job is either forming a saint or weakening a man. Choose how you work.Please prayerfully consider supporting the podcast on our Buy Me A Coffee page (https://buymeacoffee.com/tmc) to help grow the show to reach as many men as possible!

Jome built a marketplace for new construction homes by solving a transparency problem most people don't know exists: the vast majority of new builds never appear on Zillow, Redfin, or traditional MLS systems. In this episode of BUILDERS, I sat down with Dan Hnatkovskyy, CEO and Co-Founder of Jome, to unpack how he identified a massive category gap during Austin's pandemic housing boom and scaled from scraping builder websites to partnering with 1,700+ builders including 92 of the top 100. Dan shares the specific market moments that unlocked builder partnerships, how he discovered Google's separate product category for new construction, and why early LLM traffic became a meaningful acquisition channel. Topics Discussed: Why IDX feeds and MLS requirements systematically exclude new construction inventory The three market inflection points that accelerated builder partnerships from 500 to 1,500+ in 12 months How Google's separate new construction product category created an arbitrage opportunity against brand-focused builders The manual MVP: Typeform + text message delivery before building any real product Why the mortgage rate lock-in effect (50%+ of mortgages under 3.5% vs 6-7% prevailing rates) compounds the housing shortage Accidentally discovering ChatGPT and Perplexity were driving closed transactions through analytics instrumentation The decision to optimize entirely for buyers despite builders being the sole revenue source GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Map structural exclusions in existing distribution systems: New construction homes can't enter MLS because they often lack finished addresses, real images, or completed properties—requirements designed for resale homes. This structural incompatibility created a $400B+ blind spot. Dan didn't just find underserved customers; he identified a category systematically locked out of dominant distribution. B2B founders should analyze whether incumbent platforms have structural requirements that exclude segments of the market, not just underserve them. Exploit paid search category mismatches between buyer intent and seller behavior: Dan discovered Google maintains separate product categories for new construction versus resale homes. Zillow and Redfin competed intensely in resale, but new construction was dominated by individual builders (Lennar, DR Horton) who assumed brand-driven intent—similar to car manufacturers. The reality: buyers search "new construction homes in Austin," not "Lennar homes." This category/behavior mismatch created immediate arbitrage. B2B founders should audit whether buyers search by problem/outcome while incumbents bid on brand terms, creating white space for aggregators. Time enterprise outreach to industry stress events, not product readiness: Jome scaled from 500 to 1,500 builders in one year by capitalizing on three specific moments: (1) pandemic demand surge when builders needed millennial/Gen Z reach, (2) 2022 quantitative tightening when builders feared demand collapse, (3) Zillow's 2023 policy change excluding builders with under 10 communities. Dan didn't wait for product-market fit—he mapped when prospects would be most receptive to any solution. B2B founders should create a calendar of industry stress events (regulatory changes, market corrections, competitor policy shifts) and time outreach to these windows regardless of product maturity. Instrument conversion funnels to detect emergent channels before consensus forms: Jome discovered meaningful lead volume and closed transactions from ChatGPT and Perplexity through analytics, not strategy. Only after seeing the data did they experiment with what Dan calls "reinforcement learning with LLMs"—promoting positive results to train the models. This wasn't about SEO or prompt engineering; it was about measurement infrastructure that surfaced signal before the channel was obvious. B2B founders should track referral sources at the closed deal level, not just top-of-funnel, to catch emerging platforms while unit economics are still favorable. Manually deliver value at zero margin before building product: Before any integrations or platform, Jome ran Google Ads to a Typeform, manually created searches in their agent-facing tool, and texted results to buyers. Dan's framework: "Start with manually creating value...and then step by step, improve it, automate it, make it more efficient." He launched this on a personal credit card and got immediate signal. B2B founders should resist the urge to build scalable product until they've proven someone will pay for (or convert on) manual delivery of the outcome. Optimize for the non-paying side when you're building a two-sided marketplace: Despite 100% of revenue coming from builder commissions, every product decision optimizes for buyer experience. Dan's logic: "If we want to bring value to the builders...we need to start with the buyers. We need to create the best possible home buying journey." This isn't idealism—it's recognition that in transaction-based models, buyer liquidity determines builder participation. B2B founders in marketplace businesses must identify which side is supply-constrained and build obsessively for the other side. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

In this family cast episode of the Smart Real Estate Coach Podcast, I sit down again with Jessica Johnson, one of our Wicked Smart® Associates who's quietly stacking 3 Paydays® while juggling a full-time job, two young kids, and all of life's curveballs. Since her first appearance back in October 2024, Jessica's added multiple terms deals, navigated a unique mixed-use property, and even had her second baby, all while leaning heavily on our coaches and community to keep moving forward.  We talk about how she went from her first taken to stacking several more, the emotional reality of dealing with a challenging buyer who moved out, and why she now believes the only real failure is not trying. Jessica shares practical advice for moms in real estate, how she builds a schedule around naps and newborn chaos, what she took away from In The Trenches Bootcamp, and how she's using books, audiobooks, and our "26 in 26" challenge to rebuild her mindset. If you're a working parent, a newer creative real estate investor, or someone who's tempted to quit when deals get messy, this conversation will show you what's possible when you stay in the game, rely on your coaches, and let the 3 Paydays® system work for you.

The hardest transition in construction isn't technical—it's moving from building projects to leading people. In this episode, Eric Anderton talks with leadership expert Joel M. Hilchey about why so many construction leaders struggle once their hands come off the tools. They explore career development conversations, micro-feedback, why high performers leave first, and the subtle leadership habits that quietly drain initiative and ownership. If you've ever felt guilty because your boots aren't muddy anymore—or caught yourself jumping back into the work "just to help"—this episode will hit home.
Joe Wilson, Chief Evangelist at Bunq, examines how real startups are built through honest problem definition, relentless iteration, and a builder's mindset instead of one-off heroic moments. Joe Wilson traces his path from a dorm-room company started to pay for college to a career of stacking small wins into durable results, sharing why most founders oversell themselves and how five hard questions can pressure-test any idea.Book mentioned: Razors Edge by Somerset Maugham Thank you to our sponsor, SecureVision, for making this show possible!
