Episode 3449: Nick Maggiulli explores the paradox of wealth perception, highlighting how even billionaires like Lloyd Blankfein don't see themselves as rich. Drawing on Tolstoy's timeless story and modern data, he reveals how relative comparisons and social networks distort our sense of financial well-being, reminding us that we're likely far wealthier than we realize. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://ofdollarsanddata.com/who-feels-rich-really/ Quotes to ponder: "If your net worth is greater than $4,210, then you are wealthier than half of the world." "Most people at the upper end of the income spectrum think they are less wealthy than they actually are." "There is no right answer, because 'being rich' is a relative concept. Always has been and always will be."

Today, Sam sits down with Steve Hoggle, General Manager at Honda of Lake City and Sarah Copp, Director of Major Accounts at Lotlinx to pull back the curtain on the "Moneyball" strategy of modern automotive retail. While many dealers are still relying on gut instinct and "emotional buying" at auction, the nation's top-performing groups—including the $11 billion Morgan Auto Group—have shifted to a predictive, VIN-specific model. We explore how Honda of Lake City achieved a staggering 4:1 used-to-new sales ratio and why the traditional "channel-first" marketing approach is often a recipe for wasted spend and aged inventory. Learn how to identify "at-risk" vehicles the moment they hit your lot and discover the AI-driven tools that allow managers to see around corners before a car becomes a liability.

Text and Be HeardThe party isn't just wings and commercials anymore; it's a precision engine that turns fandom into wagers and attention into revenue. We're joined by James, a former industry insider turned prevention advocate, to unpack how Super Bowl prop bets, nonstop live wagering, and wall-to-wall ads create an environment where “harmless fun” morphs into compulsion. From coin flips and Gatorade colors to VIP perks and algorithmic nudges, we trace the incentives that keep you tapping the app and chasing the next bet.We dig into the NCAA's uneasy dance with gambling: leadership touting partnerships after high-profile integrity scares, escalating harassment of athletes after buzzer-beaters swing lines, and the uneven landscape of NIL money that leaves many players exposed. James lays out why campus proximity marketing, weak PSAs, and nostalgic branding aimed at younger audiences are a combustible mix. The heart of the concern is player safety and the social fallout: when props multiply, so do threats, rumors, and pressure to bend the game.Under the hood, leagues own the data exhaust of every play—and they sell it. That data sharpens lines, powers micro-props, and makes winning consistently harder for the average bettor. The house uses your history, your patterns, and your bankroll to personalize offers and nudge bigger stakes. We break down the psychology that seals the loop: near misses, variable rewards, and the gambler's “redemption” myth that one more bet can erase a loss. Recovery means healing the brain and rebuilding habits that generate natural dopamine—structure, movement, connection, purpose—while taking practical steps like deposit delays, notification control, and strict time budgets.If you care about the game, your wallet, or your mental health, this conversation gives you a clear map of the system and the tools to push back.

How are rising trucking insurance costs quietly driving up your shipping rates and overall freight market pricing? In this episode, Chris Loewenberg from Cottingham & Butler get real about trucking insurance, risk management, and why so many companies treat insurance like a fixed tax instead of a controllable business asset that can either protect or bankrupt your operation! From the dangers of static COIs and the urgent need for real-time insurance verification technology, to the impact of nuclear verdicts, new carriers, and rising insurance premiums on shipping costs and inflation, this conversation is all about practical freight brokerage insights and proactive strategies. We also cover how partnering with specialized trucking insurance providers, building stronger safety programs, and collaborating early with insurance partners can reduce uncovered freight risk, improve pricing, and give compliant carriers and brokers a serious competitive advantage in today's trucking industry!   About Chris Loewenberg Chris Loewenberg is a Vice President at Cottingham & Butler, the nation's largest independent insurance agency dedicated exclusively to the trucking industry.

This week on the Industrial Hemp Podcast, host Eric Hurlock is joined by Lancaster Farming staff reporter Dan Sullivan to talk about one Pennsylvania farmer's decision that's captured national attention.   Farmer Mervin Raudabaugh Jr. turned down millions of dollars in development money to preserve his Cumberland County farm for future generations. Sullivan explains how he found the story, why it resonated with people in and out of agriculture and what it says about the challenges farmers face regarding preserving their land. From there the show turns to upcoming events for the hemp community in the next few months, with a focus on education and connection. Listeners hear from Maylin Murdoch about Cornell's 2026 hemp webinar series that will be focused on how hemp is measured and evaluated in the field and in the lab.

We're joined by Brian Chen — policy director at Data & Society — to discuss his new report on the Trump administration's industrial policy for building The Big AI State. We lay out how Trump's is bringing together various forms of intervention to ensure America achieves “global technological dominance.” This includes de-risking the construction of data centers and energy infrastructure, ensuring the American AI tech stack takes over global markets, and even acquiring equity stakes in major private industries in the AI supply chain. We discuss the means and ends of Trump's industrial policy — and how these policy tools should be wielded differently by future administrations. ••• Great Power Antinomies https://www.phenomenalworld.org/analysis/great-power-antinomies/ ••• The Big AI State https://datasociety.net/library/the-big-ai-state/ Standing Plugs: ••• Order Jathan's book: https://www.ucpress.edu/book/9780520398078/the-mechanic-and-the-luddite ••• Subscribe to Ed's substack: https://substack.com/@thetechbubble ••• Subscribe to TMK on patreon for premium episodes: https://www.patreon.com/thismachinekills Hosted by Jathan Sadowski (bsky.app/profile/jathansadowski.com) and Edward Ongweso Jr. (www.x.com/bigblackjacobin).

Synopsis:  An AI revolution is underway, but so is the resistance.This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donateDescription:  An AI revolution is underway, but so is the resistance. People across the country are feeling the strain of the huge energy-sucking data processing centers that AI requires, and telling their elected officials to slow down or stop new big tech projects for firms like OpenAI, Amazon, Google, Facebook and Microsoft. Data from a 2025 Pew study shows that only 17 percent of Americans think AI will have a positive impact over the next 20 years. But it's a David vs. Goliath battle. Today's guests say AI expansion is not a red or blue issue; it's about who gets to decide how human and natural resources are distributed, who controls the technology, and who stands to benefit. Faiz Shakir is the Founder and Executive Director of the labor-focused news platform More Perfect Union, and serves as a political advisor for Senator Bernie Sanders. John Cassidy, staff writer at the New Yorker, is the author of the recent book, “Capitalism and Its Critics: A History: From the Industrial Revolution to AI”, in which he draws our attention back to the Luddites, the 18th century workers whose revolt deserves our closer attention. Plus, our correspondent's coverage of a shocking scene at a public comment meeting in Wisconsin when a local woman was arrested and dragged away. If AI is the new face of capitalism, what is the new alternative?“Luddites, when I was growing up, was a term of abuse. It was people who were sort of antediluvians and didn't understand the modern world. . . . They understood the modern world as it was in their times perfectly, and they saw it was moving against them, and they saw that the political system wasn't coming to their defense.” - John Cassidy“. . . There's more and more pushback, which hopefully portends the possibility that a lot of these communities can strike better deals if they are going to have data centers. There's no reason why we can't be asking that the teachers are well paid, that the electricity rates don't go up, that we have decent affordable housing in those communities. That is all possible because we're playing with incredible amounts of dollars and deep-pocketed people . . . ” - Faiz ShakirGuests:•  John Cassidy: Staff Writer, The New Yorker; Author, Capitalism and Its Critics: A History: From the Industrial Revolution to AI•  Faiz Shakir: Founder & Executive Director, More Perfect Union; Political Advisor & Former Campaign Manager, Senator Bernie Sanders Watch the episode released on YouTube; PBS World Channel 11:30am ET Sundays and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

In this episode of Longevity by Design, host Dr. Gil Blander sits down with Dr. Nathan Price, Professor and Co-Director at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging. Together, they explore how systems biology, artificial intelligence, and deep health data are changing the way we approach aging and prevention. Nathan explains why looking at single biomarkers falls short and why a network view of biology gives a clearer path to understanding disease and resilience.Nathan shares how new tools, like genetics, proteomics, and the emerging field of digital twins, can help predict disease risk years in advance and guide more effective, personalized interventions. He also discusses how integrating data from wearables, blood tests, and the microbiome can help people move from reactive medicine to proactive health decisions, allowing for interventions that fit the individual.The conversation highlights the promise and practical limits of current technologies, the trade-offs involved in optimizing health, and the power of AI to accelerate both research and personal health journeys. Nathan makes a strong case for the unique biology each person brings to the table and shows how the tools available today can help anyone take charge of their own healthspan in ways not possible before.Guest-at-a-Glance

In this episode of Builders Wanted, we're joined by Ann Rich, Senior Director of Design at Adobe. Kailey and Ann dive into the intricate world of product design where empathy drives innovation. They discuss the challenges and strategies in leading design at scale, how Adobe builds trust in the era of generative AI, and the importance of cross-functional collaboration. Ann shares insights on inclusive design, co-innovation with customers, and the evolving role of designers in creating user-centric and technologically advanced solutions.-------------------Key Takeaways:Successful AI-era design requires deep technical understanding alongside creative craft—designers must know the models and technology behind their interfaces to bridge human needs with AI capabilities.Speed and adaptability are essential as market paradigms can shift between conception and launch, requiring experimentation, customer co-innovation, and iterative validation over traditional research cycles.Design leadership gains influence by grounding decisions in data and user needs rather than aesthetic opinion, transforming design into a strategic driver in executive and engineering conversations.-------------------“ [Design] is really changing from a two-way model of communication and interaction to a three-way or more discussion. That's really thinking about it being a human, the interface they're working on, and then all of the things happening behind the scenes. In order for someone to be successful with what you're designing, designers have to start understanding the technology behind it. Because in order to deliver on the use case, you actually have to understand the technology and it will change the interface.” – Ann Rich-------------------Episode Timestamps:‍*(01:50) - Ann's mission at Adobe as a design leader‍*(08:15) - How trust factors into Adobe's design process‍*(16:53) - Ann's approach to inclusive design‍*(25:08) - What design teams should stop doing‍*(31:12) - A recent project that made a measurable difference for users‍*(39:06) - Ann's advice for designers looking to elevate their voice-------------------Links:Read Ann's Article How to Adapt Your Design Practice for the Age of Generative TechnologyConnect with Ann on LinkedInConnect with Kailey on LinkedInLearn more about Caspian Studios-------------------SponsorBuilders Wanted is brought to you by Twilio – the Customer Engagement Platform that helps builders turn real-time data into meaningful customer experiences.

Today on the show, we have Charles Rosenblatt, CEO of Butter Payments, providing ML AI-driven payment recovery for subscription merchants and recurring payments. Previously, Charles was CSO of Payoneer, CRO at Velo Payments, and ran treasury at D.E. Shaw during the late 90s—where managing a financial crisis taught him that outside factors can derail even the best strategies and smartest teams. In this episode, we uncover why the 14-day dunning period is an arbitrary standard that shouldn't exist—and how decoupling dunning strategy from product access unlocks smarter business decisions. Charles shares how Butter analyzes 128 variables across billions of transactions to predict payment recovery within 10 seconds, allowing companies to shut off high-cost AI users immediately when recovery is unlikely, while keeping loyal customers active when payments will clear. We explore why involuntary churn creates dangerous false signals: 30% of customers leaving might actually want to stay but have expired cards or temporary payment issues. This can lead product teams to catastrophic decisions—like Coca-Cola changing their formula when the real problem was payment infrastructure, not product-market fit. The lesson: understand what's within your control versus what's not before making strategic pivots. We also discuss how Capital One shifted their best people from acquisition to retention after realizing they were churning the equivalent of the 7th largest credit card company every year—because spending $20 to save a $500 NPV customer beats spending $300 to acquire a new one who might churn anyway. Finally, we dig into payment recovery ethics and strategy: why Butter refuses "forced payments" that drive customer accounts negative, how different card types (Amex vs. debit vs. prepaid) require completely different retry logic, and why competitors who inflate recovery promises by 100% damage trust across the industry.As always, I'd love to hear from you.

I'm digging into a frustrating reality many teams face: even technically superior analytics and AI products routinely lose deals—not because the KPIs or models aren't good enough, but because buyers and users can't clearly see how the product fits into their day-to-day work. Your demos and POCs may prove what's possible, but long time-to-understanding, heavy thinking burden on the user, and required behavior or process changes introduce risk—and risk kills momentum. When value feels complicated, sales don't move forward.     Adding to the challenge is that many sales efforts focus almost entirely on the fiscal buyer while overlooking the end users who actually have to adopt the product to create outcomes. This buyer–user mismatch, combined with status quo bias, often leads to indecision rather than change. To address this, I explore the idea of thinking about the sales challenge as a product problem—and I introduce the idea of achieving Flow of Work Alignment (FOWA). The goal isn't better persuasion—it's clearer value. Strong FOWA means transitioning from demonstrating capabilities to helping customers see themselves—and their workflows—represented in your demos and POCs. The result? Prospects understand your value quickly, ask deeper, contextual questions, and deals move forward.      Highlights/ Skip to: Data products must work harder to expose value clearly to avoid the dreaded “closed-lost” deal stage in your CRM (1:38) Making your data product's value instantly obvious (5:18) How the “old model” of selling based on capabilities and feature demos can lead to lost sales (7:22) What  Flow-of-Work Alignment is and how it can help you unlock deals (13:02) How to know if you have achieved FOWA or not in your product and sales process (13:58)

Data centers are getting a lot of heat right now. There's neighborhood pushback against them for water usage and environmental concerns, and some politicians on both sides of the aisle aren't fans for the same reasons. There's also fear that they could drive up the cost of electricity bills. But that last bit isn't set in stone. Data center electric bill upcharge is not a guarantee. In fact, it is even possible for data centers to cause power bills to go down.

What happens when the rush toward AI collides with the messy reality of enterprise data that was never designed for it? That is exactly where this fast-tracked episode with Kevin Dattolico from Syntax begins. Before we even hit record, we were swapping stories about music, travel, and a certain farewell concert that set the tone for a conversation that was both grounded and unexpectedly human. But once we got going, the discussion quickly shifted to one of the biggest blind spots I keep hearing about at tech conferences around the world. AI ambition is running far ahead of data readiness. Kevin leads Syntax across the Americas, working with organizations that rely on SAP, Oracle, and complex cloud environments to run their businesses. In our conversation, he shares why many AI initiatives stall or quietly reset the moment they touch real production data. Proofs of concept can look impressive in isolation, but once AI starts interacting with live operational systems, the cracks appear. Inconsistent data, duplicated records, missing context, and governance gaps all surface at once. The result is confusion, unpredictable outputs, and a growing realization that the issue is rarely the model itself. We dig into why ERP data has traditionally been trusted, while unstructured data across emails, documents, sensors, and logs often tells a very different story. Kevin explains where the real friction shows up when companies try to bring those worlds together, and why assumptions about data quality tend to break long before the technology does. It is a refreshingly honest look at what usually goes wrong first, and why leaders are often blindsided even after years of investment. One of the strongest themes in this episode is the shift Kevin sees from AI-first thinking toward a data-first mindset. That does not mean abandoning AI spend. It means rebalancing priorities so those investments actually deliver outcomes the business can stand behind. We talk about what consolidation, cleansing, and transformation look like at enterprise scale, especially for organizations carrying decades of technical debt and fragmented systems. The conversation also takes a thoughtful turn around governance, trust, and leadership. Kevin shares how the role of the chief data officer is changing from gatekeeper to enabler, and why modern governance has to support speed without sacrificing accountability. Along the way, he reflects on the risks of pushing ahead with weak data foundations, particularly in regulated industries where the cost of getting it wrong can be operational, reputational, or worse. And then there is the moment that caught me completely off guard. When I asked Kevin to look back on his career and reflect on someone who made a difference, his answer led to one of the most moving stories I have heard in thousands of interviews. It is a reminder that behind every transformation story, there are people who quietly shape the path forward. If you are wrestling with AI expectations, data reality, or simply wondering whether everyone else feels just as overwhelmed by this shift, this episode will resonate. The challenges Kevin describes are far more common than most leaders admit, and the opportunities for those who get the foundations right are real. So as AI continues to dominate boardroom conversations, are you confident your data is ready to support the decisions you are asking it to make, or is it time to pause and rethink what sits underneath it all?

In Episode 339, Kestrel welcomes Beth Jensen, the Chief Impact Officer at Textile Exchange, to the show. Leading the organization's efforts to achieve beneficial climate and nature impacts, Beth oversees key functions at Textile Exchange including impact data and Life Cycle Assessment studies; impact tools and reporting mechanisms; reports and research; fundraising; and public affairs/policy. "A big part of vulnerability is really admitting that you don't have all the answers. So in sustainability, in fashion, apparel, and textile space, this is just the way we have to operate. If you said you had all the answers, you wouldn't be taken seriously in this space … What you present as data might change the next time you present it because you have new and better information. You just have to be able to work in the gray and really take the best available information and make informed decisions based on that information." -Beth THEME — DATA & FASHION: METHODS & ACCESS Before we dive in, I want to take a moment to remind us all that FASHION IS POLITICAL.   Whenever a big politically-charged moment arises in the U.S., there is this narrative I see creeping around that expects fashion (brands, designers, creators, etc) to stay silent on quote unquote political issues – that fashion should stay in its so-called lane, detached from the world around it.  Here's the thing – FASHION IS POLITICAL. It always has been and it always will be. It doesn't exist in its own little vacuum. If you care about the fashion industry, and its impact on people and the planet, it's imminent to pay attention and engage in so-called politics, because it's entirely interconnected. Just to mention a few of these significant overlaps – The origins of the fashion industry in the United States – cotton grown by Black enslaved folks who were forced to immigrate – is political.  The way clothing supply chains operate – predominantly spread across the Global South where our clothes are made by mostly women of color, who are often paid less than a living wage – is political. How certain materials permeate the fashion industry – fossil fuel-derived fibers AKA plastic. While other natural fibers were historically made illegal to grow AKA hemp – is political. The largest garment manufacturing city in the U.S. is Los Angeles, employing over 46,000 garment workers, most of whom are immigrant women from Mexico and Central America. L.A. is the wage theft capital of the U.S., with the average hourly wage being $5.85 (Labor Violations In The LA Garment Industry, Garment Worker Center, 2020) The institutionalized violent origins of ICE as well as the continued horrific acts they have made toward immigrants and nonimmigrants, fellow members of our communities – is political. As Faherty called it in their recent IG post – systemic inhumanity affects us all – our families, friends, colleagues, neighbors and communities, and that is political. If you try to separate fashion from politics, clothing from humans, it's impossible. Clothing is made by people who are integral members of our communities and valued creatives along the supply chain. We must advocate for our fellow community members and the safety of our neighbors. This is the second episode is a 2-part series dedicated to DATA IN FASHION. While many of you may already have an understanding of these elements, I think they are important to reframe and contextualize the following conversation.  The fashion industry and the so-called sustainable fashion space has a concerning history with data. The so-called stat – fashion is the 2nd largest polluter globally, second only to oil – unfortunately spread like wildfire before it was found to be unsubstantiated – in 2017, journalist Alden Wicker brought this to light in an article on Racked, and the NY Times did a deep dive into it the following year, calling it the "biggest fake news in fashion". It's clear that the fashion industry has a massive impact on the earth and its inhabitants – it's an industry that not only thrives with models of overproduction and waste, it also prioritizes synthetic fossil fuel-derived materials like polyester. But, considering how long this inaccurate claim was utilized by the sustainability and fashion realm (to note, I still see it used today and often have to send articles to folks to remind them that it was never substantiated) – I guess, it becomes challenging for fashion to be taken seriously in the greater climate conversation.  Being that fashion is one of the most underregulated industries – I know this is shifting with more policy coming into play, but it's slow. This has further reduced the amount of data collected from brands, because it hasn't been required.  As you can tell, data, fashion and sustainability have a complex history. This week's guest understands this reality, and is pushing to shift the narrative through her work with Textile Exchange. But it's a tricky task, when for her, a lack of data shouldn't prevent us from taking action.  "Without having data to underpin statements about something working toward reducing impact or creating beneficial impact, there's really nothing for those statements to stand on. Now the challenge there is making sure that we're striking the right balance of not letting perfect data get in the way of doing the work that we need to do to improve practices and create beneficial outcomes for the industry." -Beth Materials Market Report 2025 (Press Release) Paper on Ensuring Integrity in the Use of Life Cycle Assessment Data (Press Release) Industry Reports Library Life Cycle Inventory (LCI) Library Follow Textile Exchange on Instagram

Summary In this episode, Ali Damron discusses the challenges many face in their healing journeys, particularly when they feel they are doing everything right but still not seeing results. She emphasizes the importance of understanding the mind-body connection, the dangers of over-optimization, and how tracking health metrics can lead to hypervigilance. Ali encourages listeners to trust their bodies and find balance in their health practices, while also addressing the role of uncertainty in healing. Takeaways Many patients do more than they need to for healing. The brain's perception of danger affects bodily functions. Over-optimization can lead to increased stress and symptoms.
