The analysis of mergers in the EU and UK is adapting to take account of a changed worldwide geo-political and trade context. But what does this mean in practice? Stuart Hudson, co-lead of Brunswick's global regulatory practice, joins Matthew Hall and James Hunsberger to discuss the European Commission's draft new EU Merger Guidelines and changes in the UK. Listen to this episode to learn more about what is in the draft EU guidelines, why the changes have been made, the UK's new approach, a prediction on EU/UK convergence or divergence and the risk of politicisation of merger control.

Your listing appointment conversion rate is either building your income or quietly destroying it. Most agents have no idea which one it is.The average agent goes on 100 appointments and takes 20 listings. I go on 100 and take 85. That gap is not talent. It is not market conditions. It is not your CMA or your photography or how many years you have been in the business. It is skill. Specifically, it is seven skills that almost nobody in this industry is actually practicing.Here is what I cover in this session:✅ Why your listing presentation skills are the single biggest lever on your income and why good service has nothing to do with winning the listing✅ The three stages of every listing presentation strategy that separates agents taking 20 listings from agents taking 85✅ The exact real estate scripts for listings you need across all seven seller conversations, from setting the appointment through handling price objections and presenting low offers✅ Why most agents are winging it and how to build a listing presentation close that works even when sellers push back on commission and contract length✅ The math that proves how to take more listings is a skills problem, not a leads problem, and what to do about it starting this weekI sold 2,000 homes. 80% from listings. 100 deals a year for 10 consecutive years. I built a real estate coaching company that Housing Wire named one of the top 25 in the country. I am not theorizing. I am reporting what works and showing you the system.If your income is not where it should be, your listing appointment conversion rate is the first place to look. Watch this.

Most agents think they lose the listing during the presentation. The truth is they usually lose it before they ever walk through the door. In this episode, Tim and Julie Harris break down why the listing appointment is not where you win the listing. It is where you confirm the decision the seller should have already made. You will learn why pre-qualification matters, why sellers already have a price in mind, how a pre-listing package removes objections before they happen, and why most agents fail because they show up unprepared. Tim and Julie also explain how to use the CMA, net sheet, listing paperwork, seller questions, and the Sharpie Close to create a professional listing process that makes sellers feel confident moving forward. What you'll learn: why most agents lose listings early, how to pre-qualify sellers correctly, how to uncover what the seller thinks the home is worth, why a pre-listing package gives you an unfair advantage, how to stop being seen as a commodity, and how serious agents can compete at a higher level in the 2026 market.

A conversation came up on Knife Talk podcast about Lego and if the world renowned company changed direction by minimizing  the creativity for the user and pushed for instruction/ kit based focus. It jogged some memories of the great Lego Riot of 1981 and the violence that ensued in my first grade class. I also covered a very vivid and traumatic event in the time when Lego introduced the coveted blue astronaut while little Geoffy finds out where babies come from. Follow Knife Talk on IG: (listen wherever you get podcasts)https://www.instagram.com/knifetalkpodcast?igsh=bTI1ZXpsb3dxdjUzFollow Full Blast on Instagram and join the party pal:https://www.instagram.com/thefullblastpodcast?igsh=Nm5jbmFqYXJ2eHJoFollow CMA on IG:https://www.instagram.com/centerformetalarts?igsh=MWRqdzlwZnV2d3BnYQ==Take a class at CMA:Center for Metal Arts | Forging workshops in Johnstown, PAIf you want to support Full Blast Support  Feder Knives - ( go buy a shirt )https://www.federknives.com/Go to CMA's website and check out the opportunities: https://centerformetalarts.org/Take a class: https://centerformetalarts.org/Follow CMA on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/centerformetalarts/?hl=enPlease subscribe, leave a review and tell your friends about the show. it helps me out a lot! Welcome aboard Phoenix Abrasives!Phoenixabrasives.com Phoenix abrasives supplies superior abrasive products for every application. Knifemaking, Metal fabrication, glass fab, floor sanding and Crankshaft! Belts, grinding and cutting discs, Flap Discs, surface conditioning FB10 at checkout gets 10% off your order at Check out.Welcome back!

This Day in Legal History: The Indian Removal Act of 1830On this day May 28, 1830, President Andrew Jackson signed the Indian Removal Act, authorizing the federal government to “negotiate” the relocation of Native American tribes east of the Mississippi to lands in what is now Oklahoma. On its face the statute framed displacement as voluntary, treaty-based, and compensated; in practice it became the legal scaffolding for the forced expulsion of the Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek, and Seminole nations, culminating in the Trail of Tears.The bill passed the House by just five votes, with Davy Crockett among its most prominent dissenters. The years that immediately followed produced the Marshall Court's foundational Indian law trilogy — Johnson v. M'Intosh, Cherokee Nation v. Georgia, and Worcester v. Georgia — the last of which Jackson famously (and probably apocryphally) refused to enforce. The doctrinal residue of the Removal era is still in force today: tribes remain “domestic dependent nations,” Congress still claims a “plenary power” over them, and the Supreme Court is still relitigating what reservation boundaries actually mean — most recently in McGirt v. Oklahoma in 2020 and Haaland v. Brackeen in 2023. The 1830 Act was not the beginning of dispossession in North America, but it was the moment Congress took ownership of the policy and dressed it in the language of statute. Whatever else May 28 marks on the calendar, in legal history it marks the day removal became American law.Dutch coatings giant AkzoNobel, the maker of Dulux paint, told Sherwin-Williams and Nippon Paint Wednesday that their €12.5 billion ($14.6 billion) joint takeover proposal is not a “superior proposal” and that the board would stay the course on its already-agreed merger with Axalta Coating Systems. The rejected offer, made at €73 per share, would have carved AkzoNobel up — Nippon taking the decorative paints business, Sherwin-Williams taking industrial coatings — and was the second pass after an earlier bid that the board had swatted away in April.AkzoNobel's reasons read like a Dutch corporate-law primer: the offer “did not come close to adequately reflecting” long-term value, the deal-certainty risk around regulatory clearances was too high, and the “interests of AkzoNobel stakeholders” were not adequately safeguarded. That last word is the legal tell. Under Dutch law, a listed company's board is not bound by anything resembling Delaware's Revlon duty to maximize shareholder value in a sale; it answers to a stakeholder model that explicitly weighs employees, creditors, suppliers, and the long-term interests of the enterprise alongside the shareholders. That gives a Dutch board far more room to reject a premium cash bid than a comparable U.S. target would have, especially with a friendly all-stock merger of equals (the Axalta deal) already on the table.The combined AkzoNobel-Axalta entity, announced last November and worth roughly $25 billion, plans to list on the NYSE with dual HQs in Amsterdam and Philadelphia and Dutch tax residency — a structure that itself preserves the Dutch governance model post-close. The CMA in the U.K. has already opened a public comment period on the Axalta deal, and antitrust review is likely the live front to watch from here.AkzoNobel Snubs €12.5B Sherwin-Williams, Nippon Paint Bid | Law360The Trump administration is preparing to halt federal immigration and customs processing at airports located in jurisdictions it deems “sanctuary cities” or “sanctuary states,”, according to a report Reuters published. The mechanism, if implemented, would have Customs and Border Protection officers stop staffing inbound international arrival processing — meaning international passengers landing at, say, San Francisco, Boston, or Seattle would be unable to clear customs at those airports and would have to be diverted. The legal architecture here is unusual because CBP staffing decisions sit at the discretionary end of federal administrative law: the agency has wide latitude to deploy officers where it wants, and there is no statutory entitlement for any particular city to host a federal port of entry.That said, a decision to use that discretion as punishment for a state or municipality's refusal to honor ICE detainers would invite a familiar set of challenges — South Dakota v. Dole-style coercion arguments dressed up as preemption, anti-commandeering claims under Murphy v. NCAA and Printz v. United States, and APA challenges under State Farm to whatever administrative record the agency assembles. Several of the targeted jurisdictions have already won injunctions in earlier rounds of sanctuary-city funding fights, including against the prior conditioning of Byrne JAG grants on detainer compliance. The political move is obvious; the legal move is less so, and the administration will need to articulate a non-pretextual reason for the staffing change if it wants to survive arbitrary-and-capricious review. Whether airlines, airport authorities, or the states themselves will have standing to sue — and what kind of irreparable harm a redirected flight inflicts — is going to be the first set of questions a court has to answer.US draws up plans to halt immigration, customs processing at ‘sanctuary city' airports | ReutersThe Supreme Court reversed and remanded the Fourth Circuit's decision reviving the National Association of Immigration Judges' First Amendment challenge to a federal rule restricting what sitting immigration judges may say publicly about the agency that employs them. The per curiam opinion's holding is narrow but striking: the Fourth Circuit, the justices said, committed an abuse of discretion by reviving the suit on a theory neither party briefed, a “drastic departure from the principle of party presentation” laid out in cases like United States v. Sineneng-Smith. The party-presentation principle is one of those background structural rules that doesn't get a lot of airtime — the basic idea is that federal courts are passive instruments that decide the cases the parties bring them, not the cases judges wish the parties had brought — but here it became outcome-determinative.Justice Clarence Thomas, joined by Justice Amy Coney Barrett, wrote separately to say the Fourth Circuit was also wrong on the merits because it ignored Elgin v. Department of the Treasury, the 2012 decision holding that the Civil Service Reform Act's administrative-channeling regime is the exclusive route for covered federal employees to challenge adverse employment actions, even constitutional ones. The practical effect is that the immigration judges' union now has to litigate its First Amendment claim through the Merit Systems Protection Board and then the Federal Circuit rather than in district court, and the case bounces back to the Fourth Circuit to redo the analysis on whatever ground the parties did actually raise. The Court also denied a cross-petition from the union. The case is Margolin v. National Association of Immigration Judges, No. 25-767; the merits cross-petition was No. 25-1009.Justices Order Redo In Immigration Judges' Free Speech Suit | Law360A Sixth Circuit panel on Tuesday affirmed the dismissal of an attempt by Right to Life of Michigan and a group of parents to block enforcement of Proposal 3, the 2022 Michigan ballot initiative that wrote a fundamental right to reproductive freedom into Article I, Section 28 of the state constitution. The panel did not reach the merits — the case stopped at standing — and the opinion, written by Judge John K. Bush, is a clean illustration of how high the Article III standing bar is for pre-enforcement challenges of this kind. Standing requires the plaintiff to show an injury that is fairly traceable to the defendant's conduct and likely to be redressed by a favorable decision, and the parents here couldn't make the traceability link work: their theory was that the amendment might allow schools or other actors to help minors obtain contraception or abortion care without parental consent, but the complaint identified no specific enforcement action by Governor Whitmer, Attorney General Nessel, or Secretary of State Benson that was causing or threatening any such injury.The panel reiterated the Lujan v. Defenders of Wildlife framework and quoted approvingly the rule that a “general allegation” that an executive officer is “generally responsible for executing” state law does not, by itself, establish standing to sue that officer. The court also rejected the plaintiffs' attempt to bootstrap standing off the AG's and governor's authority to enforce Michigan's consumer protection and civil rights statutes, calling those allegations too speculative. This is going to be the template for the next several rounds of post-Dobbs challenges to state constitutional reproductive-rights amendments: the merits questions about scope and federal preemption will keep coming, but plaintiffs are going to need a concrete enforcement target to even get a hearing.6th Circ.

This was going to be the Mother's Day massacre but I don't think I was ready for that smoke. I definitely had some mother's day issues with a couple mothers very dear to me. Hopefully I can fix things. We swerved into maker talk with my experience as a latchkey kid and how it informed my forged Butterfly knives. Wrapped it all up and came in for a nice landing.

In today's episode, Ray wanders the newly refreshed CMA Galleries in search of his next favorite work of art. Joined by his wife, Dr. Lindsay McManus, the two take in the reimagined spaces before being lovingly put on the spot by producer Drew in a spirited round of "Taste Test". After the break, Kress Fellow Erin Kuykendall brings the collection to life, sharing stories about some new and old CMA favorites. It's equal parts humor, insight, and a reminder that art is always better when shared—even if you don't agree on the cows.Transcript for today's episode: https://bit.ly/48RtZU0Learn more about the CMA Collection: https://www.columbiamuseum.org/view/cma-collection

Join host Adam Larson as he welcomes expert guests Dana Hermanson, Daniel Haggerty, and Douglas Boyle—the authors of the 2026 Curt Verschoor Ethics Feature of the Year—for an honest, eye-opening discussion on the shadow side of professional ethics. After their award-winning article on building virtue, the trio flips the script—this time tackling the capital vices of pride, envy, and greed, and exploring why good people sometimes make bad choices. Hear real-world examples, from Enron to Theranos, and pick up practical strategies for recognizing and overcoming these vices in yourself and your organization. Daniel shares a philosopher's perspective on the roots of bad behavior, Douglas draws on his executive experience to talk about healthy versus harmful pride, and Dana connects classic wisdom to familiar fraud prevention tools. Whether you're a finance leader, student, or just curious about why fraud still happens, this is a conversation packed with insight, stories, and advice you can use right away—including a behind-the-scenes look at their award-winning article.

Costs are about to skyrocket but it's far worse than just costs. The ability to obtain food, fertilizer and oil are about to collapse in a way never before seen in modern history. They are manufacturing a famine to force people into a ration-based digital ID system complete with social credit. Costs of potatoes alone went from 2.5 Euros to 18.5 Euros per 100kgs in a single month due to fertilizer shortages which farmers have been warning about for quite some time. Sulfuric acid is at a major deficit currently which leads to shortages of fertilizer as well as tools needed for mining and manufacturing across the board. This alone can cause a famine. On top of this however, we were already seeing an attack internationally on farmland as well as 73 year shortages of cattle head. Farm bankruptcies are up 46%. 70% of farmers cannot afford fertilizers. Diesel prices are up 60% in a year. President Trump recently said in an interview with Sean Hannity that high gas prices are the price we pay for Iran not having nuclear weapons. This is insanity. Meanwhile, engine oil is scarce and data centers are being built everywhere to complicate matters more. Water shortages will be a major problem in cities near data centers as people like Mike Adams has warned about on Natural News. This will hurt farms and industry while the data centers collect everyone's information in a massive surveillance database. They're creating a Hive Mind to help "solve" the very shortages they created in the first place. It just so happens that back in July of 2025, the DOE (Department of Energy) warned that we will see a 100x increase in blackout risks by 2030. That year isn't a coincidence. The United Nations planned for this years ago. It also just so happens that government run grocery stores are being established in New York and proposed in California and cities like Chicago. In the UK where they are pushing forward a digital ID mandate, they are attempting to police what foods you buy. This is one of the many steps towards the digital gulag system to come. From banks to energy and food, this system which the WEF has pushed for years is being adopted, quickly. It's up to you to actually take the warning and do something about it or sit there on your hands awaiting you dark fate. Stay tuned for more from WAM!

How to Use Active Listings in a CMA | Alberta Real Estate Exam Prep When preparing a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA), should you use only sold properties — or do active listings matter too? This is a very common Alberta real estate exam question, and it's also a real-world conversation you will constantly have with sellers. In this video from The Alberta Real Estate School, we break down: • Why SOLD properties are the foundation of a CMA • Why ACTIVE listings still matter when setting a listing price • How the Principle of Substitution impacts pricing strategy • Why overpriced listings help sell competing homes • How expired listings provide powerful evidence in pricing conversations • What to do when a seller insists on overpricing Here's the key distinction: ✔ CMA valuation is based primarily on SOLD properties — because those reflect actual market value. ❗ Active listings have asking prices — not sale prices — and may sell for less (or not sell at all). However… When you're discussing a listing strategy with a seller, you must also review: • Active listings (your competition) • Expired listings (proof of overpricing consequences) If a similar property next door is listed for $50,000 less, buyers will gravitate toward the lower-priced home. According to the Principle of Substitution, buyers choose comparable properties at the lowest price. An overpriced property doesn't just sit — it helps sell the competition. Understanding this balance is critical for: • Practice of Residential Real Estate • Alberta real estate licensing exams (RECA) • CMA exam questions • Listing presentations • Managing seller expectations • Avoiding long days on market This video also explains how to professionally handle sellers who want to price $100,000 over market value — and how to prepare them for potential price reductions if the property receives no showings or offers. At The Alberta Real Estate School, we don't just teach theory — we teach how to have these conversations confidently in real transactions.

Our courses equip you with the skills needed to pass your licensing exam in Alberta. Link in the comments.

Getting the listing appointment is only half the battle. Most agents show up unprepared, leave behind a folder, and pray for the best. Top agents walk in already knowing they have the business — because their system did the selling before they arrived. In this episode, Tim and Julie Harris break down their proven 7-step listing process — the same system they used to list and sell thousands of homes and that their coaching clients have used for decades to build predictable, profitable real estate businesses. This is not a theory episode. This is a step-by-step breakdown of exactly how to prepare for, present at, and close listing appointments at the highest level — and why the opportunity to do exactly this has never been greater than it is right now in 2026. With 43 to 50 percent of spring listings expected to expire in most markets, the pipeline of motivated, receptive sellers is about to flood the market. The agents who understand how to pursue expired listings with a structured process will build more momentum in the second half of 2026 than most agents will generate in two full years. What you will learn in this episode: how to pre-qualify sellers before you ever step foot in their home and why skipping this step is the single most expensive mistake in the listing process; what belongs in a pre-listing pack and why it does most of the selling for you before the appointment even begins; why sending the CMA, the net sheet, the listing paperwork, and the Seller Survival Guide in advance removes objections before they become conflicts; why going last on a listing appointment gives you a massive structural advantage over your competition; why paper outperforms digital tools in the listing presentation and what it costs you to put a screen between you and the seller; why under-commissioning and overpricing are not competitive strategies but career-ending habits; and why your 2027 business is being built right now, in the third quarter of 2026 — not in October. If you are serious about becoming a listing-focused agent and building a business that creates real freedom, this episode is required listening.

Windermere Coaching Minute · Hosted by Michael Fanning · The market doesn't care what you need to net. It doesn't care what you paid, what your neighbor sold for, or what number feels fair to you. It simply reflects what buyers will do right now.Real estate agents and sellers don't set the price. The market does. Agents analyze the data and present it. Sellers make objective decisions based on that data. That model, followed well, produces results. When it breaks down on either side that's where the trouble starts.In this episode, Michael Fanning breaks down the one truth that drives every successful home sale: outside of price itself, the single most important factor is the seller because the seller gets to decide everything. And every decision carries a consequence.THE HARD TRUTH: The worst version of this story isn't a low offer or a price reduction. It's the listing that expires, the sign that comes out of the yard, and the seller who turns to the agent and says, "You failed me." The agent isn't blameless. But the seller made every decision in that process too.WHAT YOU'LL HEAR• Why homes are still hitting the market overpriced and what it really costs sellers• The 4 decisions that make a sale and the 5 that break one• The quote every agent and seller need: "Agents and sellers don't set the price. The market does."• 8 questions every seller should ask before hiring an agent and what strong answers look like vs. red flagsEPISODE TIMESTAMPS[0:00] Intro — The decision problem, and the listing that never should have expired[3:00] Segment 1 — The framework: the seller controls more than they think[8:00] Segment 2 — The 4 decisions that make the sale[14:00] Segment 3 — The 5 decisions that break it (including the expired listing conversation)[18:30] Segment 4 — 8 questions every seller should ask before hiring an agent[23:00] Segment 5 — Closing message to sellers and agentsFOR AGENTS — HOW TO USE THIS EPISODEThis episode is a listing appointment in audio form. Send it to a seller before you meet. Use it when a seller pushes back on your pricing recommendation. The agents who win listings long-term aren't the ones who tell sellers what they want to hear — they're the ones who tell them what they need to hear, early and with care.Attach the resources below to every CMA you deliver. Let the work speak before you walk in the door.RESOURCES MENTIONED"It Comes Down to You" — Seller FAQ / CMA Cover Document.

While overall cancer rates in Canada continue to decline, reflecting decades of progress in screening and treatment, younger survivors face troubling gaps in their follow-up care. In the research article “Projected estimates of cancer in Canada in 2026” overall cancer incidence and mortality rates continue to decline when adjusted for population size, reflecting advances in screening, early detection, and treatment. But for adolescents and young adults, surviving cancer may mark the start of a more complex and less coordinated phase of care.Dr. Darren Brenner, a molecular cancer epidemiologist at the University of Calgary, reports that more than 250,000 Canadians are expected to be diagnosed with cancer in 2026, with rates per 100,000 continuing to fall. Mortality has declined for several major cancers, though increases in pancreatic and uterine cancers highlight uneven progress. Brenner notes that a growing number of survivors are now living with elevated risk of second primary cancers and will require long-term follow-up.Dr. Miranda Fidler-Benaoudia, a cancer epidemiologist at Cancer Care Alberta and co-author of the article, article “Subsequent primary neoplasm risk among survivors of cancer in adolescence and young adulthood: a population-based study from Alberta, Canada,” examines what happens after treatment for patients diagnosed between ages 15 and 39. Her study finds these survivors are twice as likely to develop a second primary cancer as their peers, often at younger ages than current screening programmes anticipate. Despite this, survivorship care is inconsistent. Patients treated in paediatric settings often receive lifelong, specialized follow-up, while those treated in adult systems may be discharged within a few years to primary care without standardized guidance or documentation. Many lack access to a family physician, and clinicians may not be equipped to manage the long-term risks associated with early cancer treatment.For clinicians, these findings raise questions about how to manage a growing population of younger cancer survivors who face elevated risks over decades. Earlier onset of second cancers and the absence of clear follow-up pathways suggest current screening frameworks and transition practices may not be sufficient for this group.Comments or questions?

I just got back from staying with Ben Snure and his family on the Texas Ranch he works on and it was an incredible time. West Texas is beautiful & wild with moments of terrifying desolation. The Snure family are incredibly resourceful, self reliant and fantastic. We ate extremely well, forged, drove around and I watched as Ben tended to the cattle. Then we went to the World Championship Blacksmith forging competition where we watched the best farriers in the world compete in a 3 day event that highlighted the most technical aspects of forging in the game. Many thanks to Ben and his wonderful family for your gracious hospitality and friendship.

In this reflective episode of 5 Minutes of Peace, choreographer and educator Alexandra Beller guides us through a simple yet profound breathing practice rooted in awareness, not control.Rather than “holding” the breath, Alexandra invites us to pause at the top of the inhale and the bottom of the exhale, waiting until the body naturally asks for the next breath. In these quiet, in-between spaces, something deeper begins to emerge — sensation, awareness, even insight.This practice highlights breath as a bridge between the conscious and unconscious mind, offering an embodied way to access creativity, release habitual patterns, and reconnect with inner rhythm.Listeners are encouraged to explore these pauses as portals — places where inspiration (literally, “inhalation”) can arise when we soften effort and begin to listen.Key Takeaways• Pause, don't force — allow the body to guide the rhythm of breath• The spaces between breaths are powerful — moments of insight and awareness often arise there• Breath connects mind and body — linking conscious choice with unconscious processes• Creativity is natural — our first form of creativity is problem-solving• Notice and release habits — breath can help us interrupt patterns that no longer serve usMemorable Moment“It's less about control and more about listening for the body to say, I need something… or I am ready to let go of something.”About our GuestAlexandra Beller (MFA, CMA) is a choreographer, director, and educator, and a former member of the Bill T.

This is one of the most tested comparison questions on the Alberta real estate and mortgage licensing exams — and understanding the distinction is critical. In this video from The Alberta Real Estate School, we break down the differences clearly and simply: CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) • Prepared by a real estate professional • Used to help buyers write offers • Used to help sellers determine listing price • Based primarily on sold comparable properties • Cannot be used for lender or legal purposes A CMA is a pricing tool — not a formal valuation for financing or legal transfers. Real Estate Appraisal • Completed by a licensed real estate appraiser • Required by lenders for mortgage financing • Required for legal matters (divorce, buyouts, property transfers) • Cannot be replaced by a CMA If a lender needs value confirmation, it must be a formal appraisal — not an agent's CMA. Income Analysis (Pro Forma Analysis) • Used for income-producing properties • Common for duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, and small multi-family • Calculates Net Operating Income (NOI) • Used to determine cap rate and rate of return Income analysis includes: • Gross rental income • Vacancy & bad debt allowance (typically 3–5%) • Operating expenses • Net Operating Income • Cap rate calculation This helps investors decide whether a property makes financial sense. Key takeaway for exam prep: CMA = pricing strategy Appraisal = lender/legal requirement Income analysis = investment decision tool This topic connects directly to: • Fundamentals of Real Estate • Practice of Residential Real Estate • Commercial basics • RECA exam questions • Investment property calculations At The Alberta Real Estate School, we help you understand not just definitions — but when and why each tool is used.

Is there a magical number when it comes to pricing a listing? No, not really. But there IS a way to walk into every listing appointment confident, prepared, and ready to have a real conversation about price with your sellers. In this episode, we are finally tackling the how-to of pricing a listing. We have touched on  it before, but today we are getting into the actual nuts and bolts of how we prep, what we bring, what we say, and how we guide sellers through one of the most important (and emotional) parts of the listing process. We are sharing the exact questions we ask on that first call, how we prep our CMAs, the talking points we lean on every single time, and the framework that has never failed us: price, location, and condition. We also dig into the pricing pyramid, the buyer pool conversation, and why the data has to drive every decision, even when sellers want a number that the data just does not support.  Here's what we cover in this episode: The questions we ask on the very first seller call How we prep before walking into a listing appointment Why we never give a price before we see the house in person How to use the CMA summary as a collaborative tool with sellers Why price per square foot is a guide, not a rule The three components of every listing: price, location, and condition  The pricing pyramid and how it impacts your buyer pool What to say when sellers want a number the data does not support How to handle the "how did you come up with this price?" question Why pending and active listings matter as much as solds How to set up neighborhood searches to keep sellers engaged before they list How to talk about price reductions before they happen The detective work that sets you apart from every other agent Key Quotes & Takeaways: "I am a data driven person. I come from a family of appraisers. I want the numbers to fit in a box." Alissa "I do not want you doing showings for 90 days. I want you to do it right for two weeks or less." Katy "When I list your house and another agent calls me to ask how I came up with that price, I need to be able to support it with data." Alissa "If we have no showings, it is the price. If we have lots of showings but no offers, it is the condition." Katy "There is no magic number. You have to do the work, and you have to be ready to adjust."

With just 350 units and premium pricing, it's a nostalgic—and pricey—farewell to the brand's roots.Tesla will build just 350 units (250 Model S, 100 Model X), available only via invite to select owners.Exclusive Garnet Red paint, gold badging, and numbered interiors highlight the collector-focused design.The pricing reflects rarity, with the Model X Signature hitting $159K—about a $30K premium.These models will mark the end of Model S/X production as Tesla shifts factory capacity toward Optimus robots.Elon Musk previously called it an “honorable discharge,” closing a chapter that started in 2012.Rising gas prices are pushing more shoppers to skip store trips altogether. A sharp spike in online spending suggests convenience—and avoiding the pump—is becoming a bigger factor in buying decisions.Online spending jumped 20% in March, far above typical monthly gains, as gas prices topped $4.Orders rose 12% and average order value increased 8%, showing bigger and more frequent purchases.In-store shoppers are consolidating trips, making fewer visits but spending more per trip.83% of consumers cite gas as a top cost concern, with many shifting to online to avoid driving.“When gas crosses a psychological price threshold, the math changes,” said Omnisend's Marty Bauer.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast  as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

My man Jesse Savage is back and we had a great conversation. Not only is Jesse a great blacksmith but he's on a fantastic Podcast called “The Blacksmith's Pub” with our guy Rick Barter. The last episode they talked bout the 2 year passing of our friend Dave Kurdyla. It was a great listen and in this episode, we were able to add some more stories of Dave and CMA  before their change in direction. I was honored to have been able to know Dave when he started forging and see his evolution as a skilled Blacksmith.

My man Jesse Savage is back and we had a great conversation. Not only is Jesse a great blacksmith but he's on a fantastic Podcast called “The Blacksmith's Pub” with our guy Rick Barter. The last episode they talked bout the 2 year passing of our friend Dave Kurdyla. It was a great listen and in this episode, we were able to add some more stories of Dave and CMA  before their change in direction. I was honored to have been able to know Dave when he started forging and see his evolution as a skilled Blacksmith. It's always great catching up with Jesse and hope to have him back soon.Here's a link to the Blacksmiths Pub Episode about Dave:https://open.spotify.com/episode/3m6FVZMdS7x6pucalR059k?si=MmSGxmw9S_223ocOEho0uA&t=3Here's a link to the crazy story Dave told us of him growing up.

Justin Modica of Modica Knives is a resourceful young man.  After a childhood traveling as a professional skateboarder he started a small family business and transitioned into being a great knife maker. He transformed old broken skateboard parts into knife handles, breathing new life into his past history. It's very fitting and I think he has a fearlessness on starting businesses that come from years feeling failure as he perfects skateboard tricks. The amount of physical pain associated with falling offa skateboard AKA “Eating Shit” and getting back up is a testament to Justin's tenacity. Many thanks to JMod for coming on and sorry the last minute of the ep his audio conked out. It was a lot of fun and I look forward to talking again. Follow Justin on IG https://www.instagram.com/jmod_knives?igsh=MXZjZHdqdTkwN3Q3Yg==Go to Justin's website: Modica KnivesFollow Full Blast on Instagram and join the party pal:https://www.instagram.com/thefullblastpodcast?igsh=Nm5jbmFqYXJ2eHJoIf you want to support Full Blast Support  Feder Knives - ( go buy a shirt )https://www.federknives.com/Go to CMA's website and check out the opportunities: https://centerformetalarts.org/Take a class: https://centerformetalarts.org/Follow CMA on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/centerformetalarts/?hl=enPlease subscribe, leave a review and tell your friends about the show. it helps me out a lot! Welcome aboard Phoenix Abrasives!Phoenixabrasives.com Phoenix abrasives supplies superior abrasive products for every application. Knifemaking, Metal fabrication, glass fab, floor sanding and Crankshaft! Belts, grinding and cutting discs, Flap Discs, surface conditioning FB10 at checkout gets 10% off your order at Check out.Welcome back!
