Dandelion Energy is revolutionizing residential heating and cooling through geothermal technology, transforming what was once a luxury product into a mainstream, accessible solution for homeowners across America. In this episode of Category Visionaries, I spoke with Kathy Hannun, Founder and CTO of Dandelion Energy, who spun the company out of Google X after recognizing geothermal's potential to disrupt the traditional home heating and cooling market. With $175 million in funding, Dandelion has evolved from direct-to-consumer retrofits to focusing on partnerships with home builders, dramatically reducing installation costs while maximizing scalability. Topics Discussed: Dandelion's origin as a spinout from Google X's moonshot factory The transition from a direct-to-consumer retrofit model to partnering with homebuilders How geothermal technology works and why it provides superior heating and cooling Innovations that made geothermal systems accessible to average homeowners The challenges of managing supply-demand dynamics in a construction-based business Financing strategies that made zero-money-down installations possible The development of Dandelion's brand identity and naming process The impact of government incentives on adoption rates (up to $30,000 in some markets) Future vision to make geothermal a standard option considered by major homebuilders   GTM Lessons for B2B Founders: Pivot When Your Business Model Shows Structural Flaws: Kathy recognized fundamental challenges in their direct-to-consumer retrofit approach that threatened long-term viability. Rather than forcing a flawed model, they pivoted to a B2B strategy targeting homebuilders, which cut installation costs by more than 50% while enabling greater scalability. Kathy explained, "The business model we had in the past, it was flawed... I was pretty anxious about what the future looked like in that business model. Whereas in this home builder business, it just really addresses many of the weaknesses of our old business model." Borrow Go-To-Market Strategies from Adjacent Industries: Dandelion's initial success came from applying solar industry financing models to geothermal, making expensive systems affordable through zero-money-down financing. Kathy shared, "We really just stood on the shoulders of the solar industry... it allowed us to offer a zero money down product which was also half of our customers used." By adapting proven strategies from adjacent sectors, B2B founders can accelerate adoption of new technologies. Adapt Marketing Strategies to Current Realities: Kathy initially received advice from solar industry veterans suggesting community events and farmer's markets for customer acquisition. While applying this advice, she quickly discovered digital ads were far more cost-effective. As she noted, "In retrospect, I realized the solar industry kind of came of age before digital ads were such a big deal. And so all the advice I had gotten was a little bit out of date." B2B founders should consider the context and timing when applying historical industry advice. Address Technology Limitations That Constrain Market Size: When Dandelion discovered that standard water well drilling rigs were too large for many residential properties, they developed smaller specialized equipment that instantly doubled their addressable market. Kathy recalled, "For half the homeowners that said yes to us, yes, I want to buy geothermal from you, we had to say actually nevermind, because your house cannot accommodate a giant water well rig on the yard." Identifying and solving technical barriers that limit adoption can dramatically expand market reach. Leverage Mission-Driven Status for Marketing Advantages: Dandelion's environmental mission generated media coverage and public interest that traditional HVAC companies couldn't access. Kathy observed, "Starting a company that is mission driven like Dandelion has been a big advantage because we get a fair amount of press coverage and people are inherently somewhat interested in the thing that we're doing." B2B founders working on solutions with broader positive impacts should leverage this narrative advantage in their marketing strategy.   //   Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe.  www.GlobalTalent.co

In this episode, I chat with Kathy Hannun of Dandelion Energy about ground-source heat pumps, which are twice as efficient as air-source units but still more expensive up front. Dandelion has designed its own drills and heat pumps, and with a new 1,500-home partnership with a developer in Colorado, it's looking to scale up and bring costs down. This is a public episode.

LYRICS Youre such a super entitled, sick Son of A Gun But don't you forget -- you're still the one with the gun; you're such a super entitled, sick Son of a Gun-- but don't you forget: you're still the one with the gun! (you're so stuck in your world, you're so stuck in your world, you're so super entitled, so suicidal) you're a super entitled sick son of a gun (son of a gun) you're a super entitled sick son of a gun (son of a gun) you're so stuck in your world. ARTWORK: the artwork depicts a near headless suited individual who appears to be a man with a 2D hand holding a gun pointed at his head, which is portrayed as a television set; the placement of the artists name at the center of the screen suggests that this is a reflective interpretation of oneself, and the lyrics suggest that the figure holding the man at gunpoint is another incarnation or person of the man himself, or of the artists depiction of the sense of self being separated entirely from what is truth, or what is known--and what is felt.

This week, we travel back to 1993 as we dive into The Witcher: Classic Collection, a new graphic novel compilation of Geralt's earliest comic book adventures. And since neither of us were old enough to drink in the early '90s, we're discussing this book sober! Well, the first half of it at any rate, which proves to be an unwise choice because the first two stories…aren't great. How does an oversized, non-speaking earwig have its own gang of thieves? What is Dandelion doing hanging out with a bunch of sheep? And do not get us started on how Geralt got his famous white hair! Be smarter than us and pour yourself a strong one before hitting play, as we navigate this weird, wild and at times strangely homoerotic Witcher world.

Lots going on this week! The first dandelion has been spotted, we have some new natural nutrients fertilizer and I go through the labels and compare them to synthetic forward fertilizers plus talk about what sulfer, magnesium, sea kelp and peptides do for lawns.

Summary: In this episode, professional forager and culinary alchemist Pascal Baudard takes us on a deep dive into the world of wild foods, fermentation, and sustainable foraging. He shares his journey from a small town in Belgium to becoming a pioneer in the wild food movement in Southern California. The conversation explores the culinary possibilities of invasive species, forgotten flavors, and ancient grains, along with traditional preservation techniques and the art of mustard and bread making. Pascal also discusses wild brewing, the medicinal uses of native plants, and the environmental impact of modern agriculture. With a strong focus on sustainability, he offers practical advice for incorporating wild ingredients into everyday cooking and inspires a renewed appreciation for working with nature. - Leave a Review of the Podcast - Buy our Wild Fish and Game Spices Guest: Urban Outdoor Skills Pascal Baudar Instagram Wildcrafted Fermentation Takeaways: Pascal's journey into foraging began with his grandmother's teachings. Food preservation techniques are crucial for utilizing wild foods. Invasive species can be culinary treasures rather than nuisances. Rediscovering forgotten flavors can enhance modern cuisine. Sustainable foraging practices benefit both the environment and local communities. Learning about wild food can start with just one plant a week. Dandelion is a common and nutritious wild edible. Local resources are often overlooked in modern food systems. Food waste can include native plants. Mustard can be made from unique local ingredients. Pascal creates a unique smoky beer using wild oats and barley. Traditional brewing involves boiling plants and adding sugar for fermentation. Medicinal properties can be infused into beers using various herbs. The possibilities in brewing are endless and exciting. Sustainability in cuisine is crucial for environmental health. Foraging native plants can enhance culinary experiences. Pascal's upcoming book will focus on edible grains and seeds. Exploring wild foods can inspire creativity in cooking and brewing.

We are very excited about our guests this week on the Meldon Law & Friends Podcast!

Dan Yates co-founded Opower in 2007, based on the belief that consumers want to use less energy—and that their utilities could actually help them do it. He was right. Opower took off, and Oracle bought the customer engagement platform in 2016. A year later, Dan founded Dandelion Energy, a startup that uses geothermal energy for heating and cooling buildings. Electrifying buildings is a major tenant of decarbonizing the power sector, but air-source heat pumps can be expensive. Installation costs are even higher with geothermal heat pumps, but they offer energy efficiency advantages. Dan is a big fan. After investing in Dandelion and serving on its board, he became CEO in 2023.This week on With Great Power, Dan talks about the potential for residential geothermal heating and cooling, why it could be the clean energy that gains instead of loses federal support in the near term, and the role he thinks utilities can play in the technology's deployment.With Great Power is a co-production of GridX and Latitude Studios.  Subscribe on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere you get podcasts.

Dandelion leaves are packed full of nutrients, as many as are in kale.

What some consider a weed is a lovely flower in the eyes of others.

Inside you there are two wolves…and both of them are drunk. That would be due to the Writers' Tears Copper Pot Irish Whiskey which we've paired with this week's topic of conversation—The Witcher: The Ballad of Two Wolves, the Brothers Grimm-inspired graphic novel that features a young woman named Red, three sisters named Hogge and one big, bad, booze-fueled wolf. (And no, we're not actually talking about Geralt here, though he's in the story as well.) As ballads go, this proves to be a lively one, as we debate the blast radius of evil curses, delight in Dandelion's delirious behavior and reveal why gathering a bunch of people who hate each other in a locked room while you accuse them of crimes is usually a dumb idea. Oh, and Geralt hooks up with a sorceress. Because of course he does. Hold music: "Local Forecast - Slower" by Kevin MacLeod

Long Before Sarah Lieberman and J.C. Ricks were awarded “Best Chicken & Waffles” in the country by Good Morning America in 2023, they were running Dandelion Cafe, their 40-seat breakfast and brunch concept in Bellaire, TX.  As a teen, Lieberman worked in her parent's pizza restaurant.  After a brief career in the oil industry, she returned to hospitality in 2016 to open Dandelion Cafe. Ricks had studied culinary arts and began his career in fine dining before meeting Lieberman and joining her at Dandelion Cafe. Their relationship blossomed personally and professionally into a partnership that grew Dandelion Cafe from a small coffee and pastry shop to a popular neighborhood breakfast and brunch concept. Known for their creative approach to breakfast, Lieberman and Ricks offer a seasonal menu with fresh local products. Specialty items include lemon blueberry and brioche strawberry French toast. Ricks manages the kitchen and Lieberman is responsible for service and operations. "We work very well together and have created a sense of family among our staff,” says Lieberman, crediting the positive work environment for building a team that helped expand the concept to three units. Adds Ricks, “Being married and parents helps us to lead with empathy and better engage and support our staff.” In this episode, Lieberman and Ricks share advice for creating and growing a successful concept, emphasizing the importance of creativity, community involvement, and satisfying the customer. “Success is much more than serving good food and beverages,” says Lieberman. “It's bonding with your guest."

I am a professional brewer, consultant, and content creator outside of Cincinnati, OH. I am a former high school and university educator, and I have been making beer for a living for over a decade. My goal here is to give a behind-the-scenes look into the craft brewing industry, and to share any knowledge I have. I am not the perfect brewer, but I am always pushing myself to get better and to learn more. Our goal in the brewhouse is to always aim for the bullseye, knowing we will never hit it. That mantra keeps us focused on continual growth, and helps us appreciate the journey of improving as brewers.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel The Man In The High Castle It focuses specifically on a plot-point only revealed in the last third of the book, but which has been set up as Tagomi organizes a meeting between the Swedish Baynes (actually the Abwehr agent Wegner) and retired Japanese general Tedeki). Baynes/Wegner reveals the existence and readiness of a Nazi plot for attaining world domination, Operation Dandelion, which involves a massive nuclear attack on Japan. This poses a dilemma, since Goebels, who is in process of consolidating his power, is in favor of Operation Dandelion, but Heydrich and the SD/SS are against the operation. Wegner suggests that the Japanese government should support the "most malignant part of German society", Heydrich and the police. This means collaborating with evil in order to prevent evil of a different sort and on a greater scale.
