In questa puntata ci addentriamo nel clima di attesa che domina i mercati finanziari dopo le ennesime minacce tariffarie lanciate da Donald Trump. Dove tutti si aspettavano un lunedì in rosso, c'è stata solo una timida reazione: segnale che gli investitori, ormai, non credono più al presidente americano e alle sue improvvise giravolte sui dazi. Perché i listini hanno retto? Cosa aspettano davvero gli operatori? E soprattutto: cosa potrebbe accadere davvero il primo agosto?

To find the first geothermal power plant in the world you have to go to Tuscany, Italy in the early twentieth century. The creation of the first geothermal power plant was thanks to Prince Piero Ginori Conti of Trevignano. Conti initially worked for his father-in-law Florestano de Larderel in the processing of boric acid. It was through this work that Conti eventually found his way into geothermal energy with the creation of the first geothermal energy generator in 1904. Based at the Lardorello dry steam field, Conti's generator was able to produce 10 kW of energy and power five light bulbs. From these humble beginnings, the geothermal potential of Lardorello was expanded in 1911. In an area known as the Devil's Valley the world's first geothermal power plant was completed in 1913. In this episode we talk with John Clegg of Hephae Energy on his career path from drilling oil and gas wells to developing drill bits and drilling tools for hot, dry rock for enhanced geothermal systems. Technology developed for unconventional oil and gas reservoirs may be the inspiration for this new industry. Innovation at work.ReferencesHephae Energy Technology https://www.linkedin.com/company/hephae-energy-technology/IADC Geothermal Well Classificaiton https://iadc.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/IADC-Geothermal-Well-Classification-v1.pdf

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training How are you positioning your services as essential rather than optional, and accurately measuring growth and profitability to sustain long-term success? How are you measuring your agency's growth and profitability? Today's featured guests unpack how they scaled their PR shop past the million-dollar mark in under four years — and their journey offers valuable insights that any agency owner can apply immediately. Learn why they prefer growing the agency as partners, as opposed to sticking to being solopreneurs, how they've been tracking their growth, and how to over-communicate with clients openly so that choosing you is the easiest decision. Caitlin Copple and Holly Conti are the co-partners of Full Swing PR, an agency that offers senior-level PR services to help amplify clients' story or cause and takes pride in creating authentic, lasting relationships with clients. They discuss their unique partnership dynamics, their approach to quarterly planning and KPIs, and their philosophy on "practicing what you preach" in the agency world. They also emphasize the importance of understanding client needs, demonstrating value, and the shift from focusing merely on publicity to generating tangible client pipelines. In this episode, we'll discuss: Breaking the visionary and integrator partner mold. Making sure to walk the walk in your own business.

Ready to design faster and smarter? Go to wix.com/studio to get started. Breaking the Visionary-Integrator Mold Caitlin started Full Swing solo, but always kept Holly in mind as the ideal partner for her business after they met working at an agency. It took some time, though, since Holly was first pregnant when Caitlin started the agency and then busy being a mom to a newborn. However, her involvement progressed, first as a moonlighter, then the agency's first employee, and eventually becoming the co-pilot Caitlin had always envisioned. Founder duos often get asked about who identifies as the “visionary” or the “integrator.” In their case, Caitlin and Holly both think big and get in the weeds. They take turns in both roles, which makes it complicated, but it works with a dose of brutally clear communication and mutual respect. Why work like this? It all comes from their beginnings as working moms in the business. As they explain, they initially treated it like a job share tagging each other in and out in the early days so they could both keep the wheels turning — and the babies fed. Partner Up or Burn Out Some agency owners do prefer to fly solo, but for the ones stuck doing it all alone — losing sleep over payroll, client churn, or the next contract that might vaporize overnight — Caitlin and Holly are living proof that a solid partner is worth their weight in gold. Having someone to say “we got this” when a contract gets pulled from underneath you is priceless. Sure, partnerships are basically work marriages (with all the ups and downs). But good ones make the tough days survivable — and the big wins that much sweeter. Walk Your Talk or Get Called Out Do you make sure your agency is practicing what you preach? Or are you one of the agencies that just “can't find the time” to work on their own website or marketing? Too many agencies hide behind ‘we're too busy with client work' while their own site looks like it was built in 1997 by a drunk intern. In their specific case as a PR agency, Caitlin and Holly practice the tenacity they teach their clients to have. “PR is about tenacity. It's not enough to do good work. People need to see you doing it.” Just like they tell clients to show up consistently, be visible, and ask for what they want. They make sure to do the same. Furthermore, putting yourself in your clients' shoes as small business owners will help you intimately understand the challenges they face and understand the investment they're making on your agency and how much they're betting on the results you can bring. For Caitlin, this means taking people “from publicity to pipeline,” because she understands as a small business owner how important it is to have four time the sales you need to meet your annual budget. In other words, treat your own agency like your most important client — or watch it slowly bleed opportunities. Quarterly Planning, KPIs, and the Secret Sauce So much can change in just one year (as we all have seen with the last couple of years). In the six years they've been in business, Caitlin and Holly have been through a pandemic, an AI revolution, and the economy doing somersaults. At this point, planning once a year and forgetting about it seems like a rookie move. They still set annual goals, of course. But quarterly check-ins are essential to running the day-to-day behind their million-dollar PR engine. Their leadership team meets every week to ensure that quarterly plan is still reality-proof. Revenue is Cool, But Calls Are King Although they do have a topline revenue goal and a profit margin goals for the agency, their north star isn't revenue — it's discovery calls. After realizing there was much more to building a profitable business than hitting the $1 million mark, Caitlin and Holly have been focusing more on pipeline and conversion rates. They know that if they keep discovery calls flowing, the revenue follows. Right now, if they book 10 calls with good fits, five become paying clients. That's a predictable pipeline. Pro tip: Track leading indicators religiously — site visits, key page hits, opt-ins, booked calls, and conversion rates at each step. If something's off (like calls dropping off, or deals stalling), they fix that exact leak before it kills the next quarter. So, if you're still flying blind, eyeballing topline revenue in your QuickBooks and calling it planning —you're normal… but you're leaving money on the table. How to Make PR (or Any Service) a Must-Have In this economy, how to get clients to see your work more as a must-have than a “nice-to-have”? In down markets, budgets get slashed — but essentials don't. So how do you become an essential? You don't chase anyone who's just looking for a PR vanity headline. You focus on clients who want a pipeline, not just press. If you're having a hard time to get clients to see you as an essential, you may be talking to the wrong people. Think about your ideal clients. What do they believe? What are their challenges? If you define your ideal client and start targeting them, you'll attract people who truly see the value you can bring to their business. Over-Communicate. Then Double It Caitlin and Holly share their process openly with prospects. Step by step. No secrets. Some agencies worry they're giving away the farm. Newsflash: they're not. Clients want to trust you know what you're doing — but they don't want to do it themselves. Everyone loves steak but no one wants to butcher a cow. Their transparency means no confusion, no scope drama, and no “you didn't say that” fights later. It's all upfront. And they even turned this transparency into a smart private podcast: “How to Hire a PR Agency” — a brilliant piece of sales enablement they send to prospects to handle all the FAQs before a call. That way, discovery calls stay focused where they should be: the client's business. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset?

Designed for agency owners like you, our Agency Blueprint helps you uncover growth opportunities, tackle obstacles, and craft a customized blueprint for your agency's success.

Ci è capitato ieri di leggere alcuni dati pubblicati dall'Energy Institute di Londra, secondo i quali, per la prima volta dal 2006, la domanda di energia nel mondo è cresciuta in tutte le sue componenti: dal carbone al nucleare, dal petrolio alle rinnovabili. La cosa, ovviamente, comporta, anche un netto aumento delle emissioni di CO2 dovute al maggiore utilizzo degli idrocarburi e del carbone che, non a caso, nel 2024, raggiungono il loro record storico. La Cina, come è noto, rimane il più grande emettitore di CO2 al mondo - con almeno un terzo di tutte le emissioni planetarie - realizzando più del 60% della sua produzione elettrica attraverso il carbone: ed a questo proposito, va ricordato che, proprio mentre scriviamo queste nostre righe, sono sulla rampa di lancio cinese almeno 100 nuove centrali elettriche a carbone. Per contro, sempre la Cina guadagna anche il primato nel campo degli impianti fotovoltaici ed eolici, ospitandone non meno del 50% di quelli presenti in tutto il pianeta. Quindi il Paese asiatico è allo stesso tempo il più grande protagonista al mondo nelle energie rinnovabili, ma anche il più grande inquinatore di CO2. Inoltre, sempre lo scorso anno, si è pure toccato un nuovo picco di produzione petrolifera negli Stati Uniti, con oltre 20 milioni di barili al giorno che - pensate un po' - da soli rappresentano una quantità che è pari alla somma di quelli che, solitamente, riescono a sfornare Russia e Arabia Saudita messe insieme. E pure per quanto concerne il gas naturale, le produzioni globali sono rimaste assai elevate, con gli USA che, anche in questo campo, guidano la classifica internazionale con oltre 1000 miliardi di metri cubi prodotti. Tutto questo significa, essenzialmente, che la crescita dell'economia mondiale non può fare a meno di continui aumenti di produzione energetica, ai quali però non è possibile far fronte ricorrendo esclusivamente alle fonti rinnovabili: intanto perchè queste ultime non sono sufficienti rispetto all'aumento della domanda e poi perché la loro caratteristica specifica è proprio quella di essere discontinue, non programmabili e, quindi, inadeguate per rispondere a esigenze di tipo costante quali sono, ad esempio, quelle peculiari a settori come sanità o trasporti. In questo contesto, diventa, dunque, abbastanza chiaro come l'ostinarsi a sognare il raggiungimento, in tempi brevi, di un mondo totalmente decarbonizzato, significhi, più che altro, non voler fare, assolutamente, i conti con la realtà. Così come appare del tutto velleitaria la pretesa europea di toccare lo stesso traguardo, entro il 2050: a meno che, non si voglia optare per una decrescita economica che, comunque – stiamone certi - nelle sue conseguenze sociali, non sarebbe affatto “felice”. Pertanto, se il Vecchio Continente si accontenta di poter vantare qualche sterile primato morale, faccia pure... tanto, il problema delle emissioni inquinanti, nella sua dimensione globale, resterebbe sostanzialmente inalterato, visto che quelle europee non raggiungono neanche il 7% delle complessive e visto anche che, ben difficilmente, Paesi come USA, Cina, India, Russia o Indonesia, saranno mai disposti a seguire il nostro nobile, ma irresponsabile esempio. Ed a conferma di quanto stiamo dicendo, basti considerare che, se da un momento all'altro, tutte le industrie europee sparissero nel nulla, dal punto di vista delle emissioni globali di CO2 le conseguenze sarebbero praticamente irrilevanti. Rifletta bene, quindi, Bruxelles prima di mettere in gioco tutto ciò che, fino ad oggi, ha definito e caratterizzato il nostro essere europei.

In 1997, Anaconda slithered into cinemas with a shocking secret: every second of computer-generated snake footage cost $100,000 to create. This wasn't just another creature feature—it was Sony Pictures Imageworks' first fully computer-animated character and a technical nightmare that pushed both digital and practical effects to their limits.To mitigate that cost, and to the benefit of this movie, they decided to rely heavily on practical animatronic snakes. The real hero of this movie was Walt Conti, whose company Edge Innovations faced an impossible challenge: creating two colossal animatronic snakes that could actually swim. Drawing on his experience with aquatic mammals, like the whales of Free Willy, Conti engineered a waterproof marvel requiring ten puppeteers to operate, with pre-programmed movements.The legacy of Anaconda extends far beyond its box office success and Jon Voight's memorably unhinged performance. This film helped launch Jennifer Lopez's movie career and established the template for "so bad it's good" cinema. But is it really "so bad it's good"? Or is just actually one of the greatest creature features of the 90s?I would love to hear your thoughts on Anaconda (1997) !Verbal Diorama is now an award-winning podcast!

We are releasing today on our podcast show a repurposed webinar which we produced on May 13, 2025 entitled “What is happening at the federal agencies (other than the CFPB) that is relevant to the consumer financial services industry.” During this podcast, we will inform you about recent developments at those other agencies, including the FTC, OCC, FDIC, FRB and DOJ (collectively, the “Agencies”) and the White House (through the issuance of Executive Orders). Some of the issues we consider are: •        What are the strategic priorities of the Agencies, including cryptocurrency (OCC, FRB and DOJ); reducing regulatory burden, promoting financial inclusion, embracing bank-fintech partnerships and expanding responsible bank activities involving digital assets (OCC); adopt a more open-minded approach to innovation and technology adoption (FDIC); public inquiry into anti-competitive regulations (FTC and DOJ); and regulation of AI technology, boosting protections for children and teens online and strengthening enforcement against companies that sell, transfer, or disclose Americans' geolocation information and other sensitive data to foreign adversaries, more emphasis on antitrust enforcement and less on consumer protection (FTC). •        What is the status of proposed or final regulations of the Agencies?

Hawks and United Broadcaster Mike Conti talks about how long it had been since Atlanta United had won a game, what adjustments and tweaks have made some differences for Atlanta United, how to handle three games in seven days with roster substitutions, if Latte Lath could be disciplined for an injury to a Cincinnati midfielder, how enjoyable the NBA Playoffs have been for any unbiased fans, and if it's refreshing to not see the same teams winning the titles every year.

Hawks and United Broadcaster Mike Conti talks about the latest with the Hawks continuing search for a top executive, what the offseason may look like based on who they bring aboard, the NBA facing a seventh different champion the last 7 years, how the Hawks compare to how the four remaining teams reached this point in the playoffs, and the continuing tough results for Atlanta United.
