Ram Ramanathan, Vice President of Product at Ribbon Communications, joined Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, to discuss Acumen, Ribbon's new AI-powered platform designed to accelerate autonomous networking for service providers and enterprises. Ramanathan explains that rapid shifts—5G adoption, cloud-native architectures, heightened security demands, and a retiring telecom workforce—have created urgent pressure for automation. “We focus on practical, pragmatic AI that delivers real ROI—not hype,” he noted. Practical Automation Across the Service Lifecycle Acumen provides end-to-end observability and automation using real-time data and ML. It is vendor-agnostic, spans OSI layers 0–7, and includes a low-code/no-code Builder that allows Ribbon to tailor automation workflows and chatbots to each customer's environment. Real Deployments Already Underway Ribbon is working with several tier-one operators, including a major mobile provider moving from 4G to 5G across a multi-vendor network. Acumen is helping automate fault management, speed root-cause analysis, and proactively inform customer-facing teams. “It's not just fixing issues faster—it's keeping everyone, including the customer, informed,” Ramanathan said. Looking Ahead Ramanathan cautions organizations to avoid AI hype by setting realistic expectations and focusing on high-ROI outcomes first. “Break it into stages and show progress along the way,” he advised.

Henry Kaiser: The Builder of Liberty Ships — Arthur Herman — Herman profiles Henry Kaiser, the second transformative figure in Freedom's Forge. Kaiser, a road construction entrepreneur who had previously coordinated monumental infrastructure projects including the Boulder Dam, demonstrated relentless commitment to ambitious thinking and delivery ahead of schedule and under budget constraints. In late 1940, Kaiser persuaded both British and American governments to contract him to construct "throwaway freighters"—Liberty ships—despite possessing no prior shipbuilding experience. Between 1941 and 1945, Kaiser successfully built 2,710 Liberty ships, fundamentally enabling Allied logistics and supply operations. 1941

[323] Featuring Derrick Rutherford (Co-Owner, Valentini's), Arif Isikgun (CEO & Founder, Ai Beauty Consultancy), and Cole Marker (Founder & Builder in Chief, thync.c), this episode reimagines retail not as a “pushy add-on," but as an essential part of sustainable business growth, driven by client care and rooted in trust.   Backed by data from the Phorest 2025 Consumer Insights Report and rooted in the incredible success Valentini's is having with retail (26% service-to-retail, 113$ average retail ticket), this conversation explores what's driving these impressive figures and flips the narrative on common blockers salon, spa, and clinic teams face in making retail a natural part of everyday operations. With Arif and Cole's added layer of lived experiences and insights as coaches, we first discuss the power of storytelling and the importance of thorough, process-driven consultations. Then, we speak to how systems make it stick, goal-setting and accountability elevate performance, and how retail can serve as an early indicator of broader issues in the business.   Learn how to build a retail approach that is: Backed by systems that make the offer authentic, care-centered, and consistent Sustainable and reflective of service standards and clients' levels of trust Empowers your team with confidence Integrates service, recommendations, and follow-through into one seamless client journey If you listen to one episode about retail this year… Let it be this one.   Follow Derrick Rutherford, Arif Isikgun, and Cole Marker on Instagram: @derrick_rutherford, @aibeautyconsultancy, @thync.c_coaching   Enjoyed the episode? Leave a rating and review on Apple Podcasts!

Send us a textEveryone's sharing hot takes on the 50-year mortgage, but most people miss the real question: does it help you buy smarter, or just slower? We sit down with San Antonio experts Robert Elder and Stephanie Paxton to unpack affordability beyond the headline rate, run the equity math on 30-year vs 50-year scenarios, and reveal why taxes, insurance, and maintenance now drive the monthly payment more than anything else.We get brutally honest about new construction. Builder buy-downs and flashy incentives can be seductive, but the true cost is often buried in the price—and appreciation can lag for years in areas with abundant land and endless new phases. We contrast that with landlocked neighborhoods where limited supply supports stronger resale dynamics. We also break down buyer expectations that hold people back: choosing staging over structure, refusing longer commutes that transplants accept, and chasing “move-in ready” at the expense of long-term value. If you're weighing a first home, a move-up purchase, or a possible rental conversion, this conversation will sharpen your strategy.We close with where the deals actually are. Year-end inventory homes can be negotiated hard across all price tiers, while select resale properties offer meaningful price cuts. The playbook: model your total payment with taxes and insurance, stress-test your five- to ten-year plan, and consider the 50-year loan as a tactical bridge with a refinance path—not a forever decision. Local data beats national headlines every time. If you're ready to run your numbers and build a plan that fits your life, tap follow, share this with a friend who's shopping, and leave a quick review to tell us what you want covered next.Support the showKey Factors Podcast is Powered by LoanBot.com Host: Mark Jones | Sr. Loan Officer | NMLS# 513437 If you would like to work with Mark on your next home purchase or as a partner visit iThink Mortgage.

Unfiltered, no-holds-barred talk radio straight out of Jackson, Mississippi. Clay Edwards and Damien Donald go scorched-earth on the freshly released Epstein files and the Democrats who demanded them… only to watch the trap snap shut on their own party. Hakeem Jeffries caught soliciting funds from a convicted Epstein months after his child-procurement guilty plea   Stacy Plaskett exposed texting the convicted pedophile for “advice” during a 2019 congressional hearing — then playing the race card when called out   The only Republican “no” vote (Louisiana Rep. Clay Higgins) gets shredded live on air   Why the real bombshells will never see daylight (honeypot blackmail, protected innocents, and the limits of what Congress will actually release)   Plus: the viral “Chud the Builder” race-baiting disaster, the rotting state of American culture across the board, and why excusing the worst behavior in any community is the fastest way to lose the country   Two hours of raw, zero-sugar-coating commentary on cancel culture, political corruption, pedophile networks hiding in plain sight, and the fight for what's left of America's soul.

What does it really take to keep growing as a leader when the playbook keeps changing? How do you hold onto curiosity and authenticity while also steering a company through massive shifts like AI? In this episode of North Star Leaders, Lindsay sits down with Gregg Johnson, CEO of Invoca, to talk about the art of building - whether that's products, companies, or culture - and why leadership today is as much about questioning as it is about giving answers. Gregg opens up about what he's learned from his winding path into tech, how he thinks about rewiring a mature business, and the small but powerful habits that fuel both his work and his life. You'll hear them discuss: Why Gregg still sees himself as a builder first, and how that shapes the way he spends his time with both technology and customers How his natural tendency to lead through asking questions has helped him as a CEO, and why he's also had to learn when to simply connect the dots and be direct The tricky but necessary work of “rewiring” an established company to adapt to new technologies like AI, and why he looks for first-principles thinkers rather than playbook followers The cultural lessons he brought with him from Salesforce, and how practices like transparent communication and weekly notes have shaped Invoca's way of working Why authenticity and empathy are non-negotiables for him, from addressing elephants in the room at work to showing up in small, everyday ways at home Resources: Gregg Johnson on Invoca | LinkedIn Lindsay Pedersen - Contact me to tell me who you'd like to hear as a guest! | Connect with me on LinkedIn
