Jeff Smith and Carson Odegard sit down with Craig Wilson, owner of River Oaks Outdoors and a Senior World Duck Calling Champion to trace his path from SoCal refuge rat (Wister/Kern) to Idaho mallard country, and what that journey taught him about scouting, pressure, and staying calm on stage. Craig breaks down how to practice with purpose, the real differences between Main Street contests and meat calling, and why late-season California birds demand restraint on the call. He also dives into the shop side—how he builds custom call displays (smart dowels, snug fit, clean glass) and the little design details that keep a lanyard organized and a collection looking sharp.Episode highlightsSoCal to Idaho: how refuge days shaped today's mallard-first approach, and why scouting beats sloggingContest nerves & routine: making the jump from good caller to stage-ready—and staying clean in Round 3Meat vs. Main Street: what actually carries to ducks versus judgesLate-season reality: why whistles and quiet spreads often beat hail calls in CaliforniaShop talk: River Oaks Outdoors display builds, dowel sizing, and protecting your calls the right way

Craig Wilson, Director of Pricing and Packaging at Moody's Analytics, brings extensive experience from major financial services companies including S&P and Experian. Starting his career in financial analysis at a Scottish car retailer after his soccer dreams didn't materialize, Craig discovered his natural strengths in numbers and analytical tools, leading him to specialize in pricing across subscription products, deal desk operations, and information technology services. In this episode, Craig explores the dual challenge of AI in pricing: how to monetize AI-enhanced products and how to leverage AI tools for pricing decisions. Drawing from his experience at Moody's, he discusses why traditional pricing principles still apply to AI products while acknowledging the fundamental disruption AI creates for per-user models. Craig shares practical insights on using AI as a pricing coach and the critical importance of early involvement in product development. Why you have to check out today's podcast: Learn why AI pricing follows traditional value-based principles but requires new approaches to pricing metrics and value capture. Discover practical ways to use AI tools like Microsoft Copilot for pricing strategy, stakeholder communication, and sales enablement.

Breathe Pictures Photography Podcast: Documentaries and Interviews
My guest on the Photowalk show today, Liza Gershman, is a travel and food photographer who's just as interested in the people and places behind the meal as the food itself. Her work has taken her to over 50 countries, always with a focus on storytelling and travel, whether through the steam rising off a street vendor's stall or the quiet moments shared at a family table. Liza's path into food photography wasn't necessarily planned, however. It started with a yes, and grew from there. In this episode, we talk about the role food plays in identity, how travel shapes the creative eye, and the way photography can slow us down long enough to really notice what's in front of us. From the mailbag today, you might want to brace yourself before the first letter lands, Charles Mason is to blame, with a tale involving something he calls photographer's knee. Craig Wilson's up a mountain with his camera, Paul Friday's wrapping himself in cotton wool (the reason will become clear), and Bob Shonkoff has a 4am story that might just have you glancing over your shoulder. Plus, we reveal the winner of last month's ‘context' photo assignment, and there's a fresh new challenge to get stuck into. Links to all guests and features will be on the show page, my sincere thanks to Arthelper, who sponsor this show, plus our Extra Milers, without whom we wouldn't be walking each week.

PHOTOGRAPHY IS MY ANCHOR is something that's said by one of my three guests today. A friend of the show, Andrew Gifford, through his Instagram grid, describes in pictures the most potent personal photo project, which conveys how it feels to have M.E. in a story of resilience. Then Dana Stirling's book ‘Why am I sad?' is a testament to just how important creative expression is during times of adversity, and a former guest of the show Jack Lowe, who'll be appearing in a longer interview early in the new year, shares a very special project called ‘A photo for you,' probably one of the simplest but most profound ideas I've heard about this year.

Joined by Craig Wilson, Customer Success Manager at DrivingSales, the discussion centers on the metrics and best practices that make BDC managers pivotal to dealership success.Episode Highlights:Introduction to BDC Manager Scorecards: Bart, J.D., and Craig begin by emphasizing the importance of the BDC manager role, highlighting its dual focus on sales and service teams.

The discussion highlights the importance of balancing various metrics to avoid overwhelming managers with too many targets.The Role of AI in BDC Operations: A significant portion of the episode explores the impact of artificial intelligence on BDC workflows. The hosts agree that AI should enhance, not replace, the capabilities of BDC agents, particularly in managing repetitive tasks and improving customer interactions.Effort vs. Performance-Based Quotas: The conversation navigates through the distinctions between effort-based quotas (like call volumes) and performance-based quotas (like sales outcomes). The hosts advocate for a balanced approach that recognizes both types of efforts in driving success.Practical Tips for BDC Managers: Practical advice is offered on how to structure scorecards effectively.
