What happens when a retired battalion fire chief is driving through northern Idaho—and sees something in the river no man can explain? In this gripping episode of Bigfoot Society, we hear from Todd, a seasoned professional trained to write courtroom-level reports, who shares a firsthand sighting from I-90 near Kellogg, Idaho. A massive, dark figure walked effortlessly through the South Fork of the Coeur d'Alene River... and it wasn't alone. We also dive into chilling stories from East Texas, Pennsylvania, Utah, and North Carolina—where a Sasquatch carried a deer over its shoulder, mimicked elk calls, and even withstood a 60 mph vehicle strike. You'll hear from truckers, hunters, campers, and witnesses who know what they saw—and have nothing left to prove. This episode isn't about blurry photos.

SummaryIn this week's episode of Startup Junkies, hosts Daniel Koonce, Caleb Talley, and Jeff Amerine welcome Marshall Saviers, CEO and President of Cushman & Wakefield | Sage Partners, for an in-depth conversation about commercial real estate, entrepreneurial timing, and building community in Northwest Arkansas. Marshall's journey is rooted in real estate, inspired by his family's legacy and shaped by his diverse childhood living in multiple cities.Moving to NWA in 2005, he witnessed firsthand the explosive regional growth that was transforming cow pastures into thriving business corridors. Early on, Sage Partners carved out a niche serving office tenants among the surge of Walmart-vendor relocations but faced severe challenges during the 2009 recession. Marshall recounted the decision to double down rather than abandon ship, fueling Sage Partners' transition into a full-service firm spanning property management, development, and investment.Additionally, throughout the episode culture emerged as a recurring theme; Marshall stressed hiring the right people over simply hiring for skills, refining Sage Partners' team to maintain quality and a sense of local connection even as they scaled up to manage over six million square feet of property. The conversation also delved into his entrepreneurial adventures, like co-founding Arkansas Craft Distribution, where timing and adaptability proved critical to success.Looking ahead, Marshall remains bullish on NWA's prospects, identifying opportunities in redevelopment, housing, and continued community investment. His blend of commercial acumen and civic commitment is driving both urban transformation and local growth, underscoring his advice to entrepreneurs: grow intentionally and never overlook the importance of culture!Show Notes(00:00) Introduction(03:28) The Regional Impact of Walmart's Vendor Influx(06:32) Weathering the Pandemic and Its After Effects(09:57) Bentonville's Development and New STEM University(15:21) Insights on Alcohol Distribution Changes(18:49) Forecasting Trends in Northwest Arkansas(26:34) Empowering Sage Partners' Next Generation(29:28) Prioritizing Intentional Growth over Rapid Expansion(30:05) Closing ThoughtsLinksDaniel KoonceCaleb TalleyJeff AmerineStartup JunkieStartup Junkie YouTubeMarshall SaviersCushman & Wakefield | Sage Partners

The JEMS Report: Inside EMS Medical Direction and Rehab Strategies at Large-Scale Fire Incidents Dr. Jeremy Cushman shares his journey from EMT to full-time EMS physician and regional medical director covering over 100 agencies in New York's Finger Lakes and western regions. He talks about the evolving EMS physician role and the relationship between medical directors and first responders. The discussion dives deep into EMS response and rehab protocols for large-scale fires, highlighting lessons from a recent five-alarm fire in Rochester, NY. Dr. Cushman explains the importance of preplanning, hydration, acclimatization and post-incident recovery while stressing rehab as a command responsibility, not solely EMS's. He explores how automatic scaling of EMS resources during growing incidents supports both firefighter safety and system capacity.

The multifamily market has seen lower rent growth and lower investment activity for more than two years, and there is little indication that interest rates will fall quickly enough or reach the levels they were in 2021 when the apartment investment market was at its hottest. There are still deals being done, however, and some are looking at the market and seeing significant potential for growth, arguing that these past few years of cooling multifamily valuations and lower rent growth have "reset" pricing and opened up opportunities for investments that could achieve outsized returns as the multifamily market and commercial real estate as a whole shifts into accelerated growth in the years to come.Link to sources discussed in this episode:Berkadia: “Cracks Emerging in Labor Market, Bets Grow for September Cut” - https://berkadia.com/blog/cracks-emerging-in-labor-market-bets-grow-for-september-cut/Cushman & Wakefield: “Tide is Turning: Conviction Points for Entry into U.S. Commercial Real Estate” - https://www.cushmanwakefield.com/en/insights/conviction-points-for-entry-us-creCBRE: “2025 U.S. Real Estate Market Outlook Midyear Review: ‘Market Fundamentals Remain Stable'” (is stagnant the same as stable?) - https://www.cbre.com/insights/reports/2025-us-real-estate-market-outlook-midyear-reviewApartment List: “National Rent Report (July 2025), Summer Apartment Cooldown Continues” - https://www.apartmentlist.com/research/national-rent-dataLearn more about Gray Capital's latest multifamily investment opportunity: https://www.graycapitalllc.com/invest-in-flats Download Gray Capital's latest report: https://www.graycapitalllc.com/future Sign up for our free multifamily newsletter here: https://www.graycapitalllc.com/newsletter DISCLAIMERS: This video does not constitute professional financial advice and is for educational/entertainment purposes only.

Organizations and leaders representing the interests of statistical professionals and public data access strongly criticized President Donald Trump's order to fire the leader of the Bureau of Labor Statistics after lower than expected jobs numbers Friday, saying his comments undermine public trust in that information. Their responses came after Trump posted on his social media site Friday afternoon with allegations that Commissioner Erika McEntarfer “faked” BLS statistics in an effort to help Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election, pointing to instances of revisions — which are a standard part of the agency's process. Trump's comments and order to fire McEntarfer appeared to primarily be in response to a BLS jobs report that showed lower figures than anticipated, which sent shockwaves through the statistical community. Multiple leaders, including his own former BLS commissioner, spoke out against the action in no uncertain terms, saying the president's comments politicize the data. President Donald Trump has nominated Edward Forst, a longtime financial services executive, to serve as the next administrator of the General Services Administration. The nomination was received in the Senate and referred to the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee on Thursday, congressional records show. According to his LinkedIn profile, Forst was most recently the chairman of Lion Capital, a private equity firm, and previously served as president and CEO of Cushman and Wakefield, a real estate services firm. Earlier in his career, Forst spent nearly 17 years at Goldman Sachs, and in 2008, he served as an adviser to the Treasury secretary for a year, per his LinkedIn. The nomination follows various staff shakeups at GSA and comes just weeks after Trump tapped State Department leader Michael Rigas to serve as GSA's acting administrator.

Liberation Day Part 2 has come and gone, and the U.S. has more clarity on the global trade landscape.Some of the levies will have CRE breathing easier, but some — including the 35% rate on Canada, a hugely important market for construction material imports — might be worse than the industry feared. Already, tariffs have driven construction costs up anywhere from 6% to 10%.But at least some of the uncertainty has been chipped away. How will CRE react?Cushman & Wakefield Senior Economist James Bohnaker said he expects deals to start moving forward again, though in a slow slog, not a rush. But with the U.S. is in an unprecedented macroeconomic environment, scenario planning by CRE investors is crucial.Register on Bisnow.com to join next Friday's conversation live, or check back here for the conversation after it airs.
Louisville Business First and Access Louisville did a poll asking: What is the most important project in Louisville? We talked about the results of the poll all these projects this week's Access Louisville podcast. Here's a look at the top five priorities that Louisville must take action on. Finding a new use for the Humana building: In early 2024, Humana Inc. announced plans to vacate the iconic tower and consolidate its local employees in the recently renovated Waterside building and neighboring Clocktower building. The Humana tower is now for sale and Chicago-based Cushman & Wakefield U.S. Inc. has been retained as the exclusive listing agent for the building — a 27-story structure at 500 W. Main St.Two new Downtown hotels: Louisville Business First broke the news on both of them. The most recent one is a 1,000-room hotel tower at the now-vacant site next to the Muhammad Ali Center, which is in the “predevelopment” phase by Louisville-based Poe Cos. There's also a 300-room, 27-story hotel tower being planned by Zyyo, led by founder and CEO Nick Campisano.Converting the Starks Building: Back in 2020, Underhill Associates unveiled a plan to convert the empty office building at the corner of Muhammad Ali Boulevard and Fourth Street into apartments with first-floor retail. As proposed, the primary tenants would be artist and the units would be offered at rates affordable for that income.Residential/retail development near Lynn Family Stadium: In March, Soccer Holdings, the parent of Louisville City FC and Racing Louisville FC, announced an agreement with Denton Floyd Real Estate Group and LDG Development to build a mixed-use development with 200 luxury apartment units along with dedicated retail spaces on the first floor.A new use for the former Jeffboat site: Right now, it's a massive, rustic slab of concrete but it could be so much more. The vision is for a $1 billion mixed-use development transforming a former shipyard in Jeffersonville, Indiana, into a waterfront residential and commercial area. Columbus, Ohio-based Thrive Cos. is the developer. Site work and demolition have received grant money from the state of Indiana but it's all still in the early stages.The show, sponsored by Baird, was episode 300 of Access Louisville. It was recorded in front of a live audience at the Baird Conference Center on the 29th floor of the 500W building in Downtown Louisville. The program included three special guest: Earl Winebrenner, owner and president, Winebrenner Capital ManagementMichael Gross, development director, LDG Development John Hollenbach, managing partner, Hollenbach OakleyThe show was moderated by me and Joel Stinnett, senior reporter at Business First. You can find a few quotes from the our panelist in below but be sure to check out the program in the player above for the full show. Access Louisville is also available on popular podcast services, including Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Bob Knakal also known as "BK" has been a broker in NYC since 1984. Over that time, he has brokered the sale of over 2,348 buildings having a market value of approximately $22 billion. For 26 years of those years (1988-2014), he owned and ran Massey Knakal Realty Services, which sold more than 3x the number of properties as the #2 firm in NYC from 2001-2014. Running the firm with a Servant Leadership management style, focusing on empowering everyone on the team, intensely training them, and building their self-esteem, led to this overwhelmingly dominant platform. The firm was sold to Cushman & Wakefield in 2014 for $100 million. The Massey Knakal Legacy is illustrated by the fact that today in the New York City investment sales market, there are 30 companies, or divisions of companies, that are either owned by, or run by, folks who learned the business at Massey Knakal. Bob is a prominent thought leader in the commercial real estate business, frequently writing about the market, lecturing on the market, and appearing on podcasts and national television shows on networks like Fox, CNBC and MSNBC. He is also the Chairman & CEO of BK Real Estate Advisors.

Are CRE and multifamily investors prepared for higher-for-even-longer interest rates? The Fed's decision to maintain the current level of the federal funds rate is no surprise, but this does not eliminate the challenges that persistently high interest rates have brought. The multifamily market may be the best-positioned CRE sector in the current economic environment, but many apartment operators are taking a cautious "heads in beds" strategy.Sources discussed in this episode:The New York Times: “As Fed Holds Rates Steady, Powell Says Next Step Is ‘Not at All Clear'” - https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/07/business/federal-reserve-may-meeting.html FOMC May 7 Statement: https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/pressreleases/monetary20250507a.htmNewmark: “Q1 2025 Capital Markets Report” - https://www.nmrk.com/storage-nmrk/uploads/documents/hotel-nsights/1Q25-Newmark-State-of-the-U.S.-Capital-Markets_External.pdf CREDiQ: “The Extend-and-Pretend Surge: $40 Billion in CRE Loan Modifications Signals a Shifting Market” - https://cred-iq.com/blog/2025/04/17/the-extend-pretend-surge-40-billion-in-cre-loan-modifications-signals-a-shifting-market/ Cushman & Wakefield: “Multifamily's ‘firm foundation . . . through this next period of volatility'” - https://assets.cushmanwakefield.com/-/media/cw/americas/united-states/insights/research-report-pdfs/2025/multifamily-digest-may-2025.pdf?rev=e6619f079c7444b9b645574c1400f30e RealPage: “Operators Appear to Buy Occupancy as Rent Growth Slows in April” - https://www.realpage.com/analytics/april-2025-data-update/ Download Gray Capital's latest report: https://www.graycapitalllc.com/window/Sign up for our free multifamily newsletter here: https://www.graycapitalllc.com/newsletter DISCLAIMERS: This podcast does not constitute professional financial advice and is for educational/entertainment purposes only.

In this episode of Masters of Moments, host Jake Wurzak sits down with Micah Lacher, founder of Anchor Investments, for a deeply personal and wide-ranging conversation about real estate, entrepreneurship, and the power of second chances. From growing up in a struggling household in North Memphis to building a respected investment and development firm in Nashville, Micah's story is both gritty and inspiring. They begin with Micah's early exposure to real estate, sparked by a life-changing move that took his family from an unsafe neighborhood to one of the best public school districts in Memphis—secured through an unlikely deal involving two Delta Airlines plane tickets. That experience set the tone for a life shaped by faith, hustle, and resilience. Throughout the episode, Micah shares how he transitioned from a brokerage role at Cushman & Wakefield into real estate development, thanks to the mentorship of Bob Tull, a former Walmart developer. He recounts launching Anchor in the depths of the 2009 financial crisis, raising capital deal-by-deal to purchase distressed assets when few others had the conviction to buy. They also discuss: - The high-stakes risk of personal guarantees during the Great Financial Crisis - How Micah structured deals, underwrote for worst-case scenarios, and still found upside - The transition from broker to principal and the influence of early mentors - Raising children without entitlement while building wealth - Using his business as a platform for purpose and service to the community Micah's outlook is rooted in gratitude and long-term thinking, with a focus on character, consistency, and building something that matters.

The episode, recorded live at Shoptalk in the Berns Communications Group media room, opens with Steve Dennis and Michael LeBlanc surveying a broad sweep of headline-grabbing developments in the retail world. They highlight continued uncertainty around recently imposed tariffs and resulting economic ripples, as major international trade disputes stoke inflationary concerns. Stock market volatility factors heavily into the conversation, with the co-hosts noting how certain retail sectors—particularly home furnishings and high-end goods—may feel the pinch as shoppers tighten budgets. Target's declining foot traffic draws focus as the hosts weigh whether brand controversies or stiff competition might be to blame. Next meet Barrie Scardina, President, Americas Retail Services at Cushman & Wakefield, who brings a fresh perspective born of decades in the retail industry. Her vantage point on commercial real estate challenges the traditional narrative of a “retail apocalypse.” She explains how, despite headlines about store closings, overall U.S. vacancy rates are incredibly low—largely because new construction has slowed and new types of tenants (from wellness providers to entertainment concepts) are snapping up available space. Barrie describes a rising tide of “experiential” retail, with everything from boutique fitness and medtail services to immersive brand pop-ups fueling a renewed sense of purpose in physical locations. She underscores how mixed-use developments and adaptive reuse—especially of outdated mall anchor spots—are revitalizing communities and increasing foot traffic. By blending residential, office, dining, and retail, these centers offer a lifestyle-oriented experience that resonates with modern shoppers. Ultimately, Barrie's insights challenge conventional wisdom, suggesting that success in retail real estate hinges on tapping into evolving consumer demands, fostering a community connection, and creating spaces that balance function with memorable experience.
