Podcasts about Design

Today we're sitting down with Chidi Asoluka — founder and CEO of NewComm — to ask a question every nonprofit leader should be wrestling with: who actually gets to design change?At NewComm, high school students manage real budgets, design real projects, and build networks most people don't access until much later in life. The lessons Chidi has learned building it are for every leader in this space.He got out of his own head and into the heads of the people he was trying to impact. What he found there reshaped everything — his program, his systems, and his understanding of what it means to lead.We dig into:Why proximity beats expertise in designing real changeWhat funders get wrong when success has to look neat and linearWhy real authority — not just a seat at the table — changes everythingPlus the remarkable true story that drives everything Chidi does, and his simple mantra for leading with clarity in a noisy world.Some conversations change how you see the work. This is one of them.

Send a textHave you ever known exactly what you should do… and still done the opposite? In Romans 7:15–20, the Apostle Paul describes one of the most relatable struggles in the entire Bible: “For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do.”In this episode, Coach Chris Wilson unpacks Paul's raw honesty about the internal war between the desire to obey God and the pull of the sinful nature. This isn't just about bad habits — it's about the deeper spiritual conflict every believer faces.You'll learn:• Why the struggle with sin doesn't mean your faith is fake• The difference between conviction and condemnation• The two common traps that keep Christians stuck (shame and self-reliance)• Why willpower alone can't defeat the flesh• How Romans 8 provides the hope and power that Romans 7 exposesIf you've ever felt frustrated, discouraged, or tired of repeating the same cycle — this conversation will remind you that the fight itself is evidence of spiritual life. The war within is real… but so is the Spirit of God.Your struggle is not proof that God has left you.

We are back for Part 3 of the Carson Kressley mini-series! This time, we are trading the design studio for the kitchen, recording live from the set of Beat Bobby Flay in New York City. Carson sits down with his good friend, the Iron Chef himself, Mr. Bobby Flay. Bobby turns the tables and lets Carson do the baking (featuring his famous Amish-adjacent Pennsylvania Dutch custard pies!), while the two discuss the undeniable link between hospitality, food, and interior design. Bobby breaks down the psychological trick of the "Orange Glow" in his restaurants, how he works with his interior designer Olivia Jane, and the layout secrets of his personal home kitchens in New York, the Hamptons, and London. Quick Decorating Takeaways: Flatter Your Guests with Lighting: Bobby insists that lighting is the unsung hero of a successful restaurant or dinner party. He aims to create an "Orange Glow" in his spaces to ensure that everybody feels like they look good while dining—if they feel good about how they look, they'll have a better time. Design for You, Not for Resale: Bobby strongly advises against designing your home based on what a hypothetical future buyer might want. Instead of living in a safe, generic space for "resale value," you should design your home for the way you want to live in it right now. The Best Way to Serve a Crowd: When entertaining at home, Bobby rarely does plated dinners. He prefers a "family style" approach because it feels comforting and allows guests to take exactly what they want. His top entertaining essential? A collection of really cool trays to easily carry food and drinks around the room.

I have a confession to make. I'm exhausted. In the best possible way after a week in Orlando, Florida for the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show. I have so much to share with you today! My journey started on the Monday before the show began for a travel day, sound check and confirming the final details form the show. In addition to hosting the KBIS Podcast Studio again this year, moderating a panel on the NEXT Stage and recording conversations for the show, I wanted to help you prepare for the show next February in Las Vegas. But Josh, next February is like 11 months away. That's true, but here's a secret. Come a little closer, it's just us. KBIS is the essential American kitchen and bath show, full stop. It's about learning, seeing, connecting and putting all of the pieces together to understand how the American market is setting up for the next year and the trending ideas that have staying power for the next 5-10 years. Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home. Where excellence meets expertise. TimberTech – Real wood beauty without the upkeep You can listen to Convo By Design for the conversations with industry insiders. If I were a designer, I would. I believe that this show tells the stories that you should really know to get a feel for directionality of the industry. Specifiers are the plus of the industry and the ideas emanating from the show this year covered the technology revolution taking place from an AI perspective, but there's more. The kitchen is in the midst of a wholesale change. And it's exciting to see it happen in real time. Learning was a key theme this year. If you were not at the show this year, you are behind the curve. I don't say this to scare you, I tell you this so you make the time to get to the show next year. All three days and plan to see as much as you can. But, I wanted to share some of the key ideas from the show this year. For additional details, check the show notes. Luxury is the measurable outcome of thoughtful design—where performance, longevity, and relevance align to support the way people actually live. Luxury is the removal of friction from daily life. Luxury is durability aligned with intent. Luxury is design that continues to perform long after the purchase is forgotten. Luxury is confidence—in function, longevity, and fit. Luxury is not what you spend. It's what you never have to rethink. The Kitchen as the Primary Investment The kitchen remains the #1 homeowner investment nationwide. Homeowners are willing to exceed budget in the kitchen more than any other space. The kitchen is the most public and social room in the home. It represents identity: “I'm a cook,” “I entertain,” “I host.” Food equals memory; appliances enable those memories. The Expanding Kitchen Ecosystem Kitchens are no longer singular spaces—they expand throughout the home. Secondary kitchens (sculleries, prep kitchens, butler's pantries) are rising. Beverage centers, bars, and wine storage are increasingly common. Coffee stations and en-suite kitchenettes are viewed as lifestyle enhancements. Outdoor kitchens are now expected in many markets. Refrigeration appears in bathrooms (skincare), offices, and guest suites. Multigenerational living drives multi-kitchen design. Post-COVID entertaining shifted bar culture into the home. Value Has Replaced Price as the Primary Decision Driver Consumers rarely regret investing more in appliances. Longevity, performance, and service support define value. Sustainability increasingly aligns with durability. Human-Centric Design Is the New Standard Appliances must be intuitive without relying on manuals. UX consistency across appliances improves adoption. Technology must solve real problems—not create new friction. Appliances Are Expanding Beyond the Kitchen Refrigeration, coffee systems, and specialty appliances now appear throughout the home. Multi-kitchen and multi-generational design is driving specification complexity. Flexibility and modular integration are essential. Practical Innovation vs Feature Saturation Most consumers use only a small percentage of available features. Simplification improves usability, adoption, and satisfaction. Innovation must solve real problems—not marketing problems. Appliances as Infrastructure for Daily Life Refrigerators open dozens of times daily, making ergonomic design critical. Dishwashers, washers, and refrigeration now integrate into behavioral routines. Appliances increasingly support lifestyle efficiency, not just task completion. Quiet Luxury: The New Definition of Premium Quiet luxury shifts focus from visual dominance to experiential excellence. Appliances integrate seamlessly into architecture. Minimal visual disruption supports design continuity. Performance becomes more important than appearance. Identity & Evolution in Design Designers must periodically redefine themselves and their work to remain relevant. Personal growth and evolving priorities shape professional identity and approach. Burnout vs Ambition Burnout is not a badge of honor; it results from overextension and emotional labor. Ambition aligns energy with superpowers and opportunities, creating sustainable growth. Setting boundaries is essential to differentiate productive ambition from harmful overwork. Emotional Labor & Client Management Design work involves managing client emotions, expectations, and second-guessing. Designers act as liaisons between clients, contractors, and teams, absorbing invisible pressures. Managing scope creep and change orders is a practical strategy to protect both energy and profitability. Social Media & Comparison Culture Social media can amplify unrealistic expectations and unhealthy competition. Designers often feel compelled to accommodate clients' desires, sometimes overextending themselves to maintain a positive perception. These core themes coming out of the show this year tell a story that cannot be ignored. The thought process is changing. More human-centric at a time when technology seems to be taking over. Interesting times. Shifting away from that, I want to share two conversations from the show. Brandon Kirschner | Azzuro Living – Control the Process, Control the Outcome: Inside Azzurro Living's Design Advantage Brandon Kirshner of Azzurro Living explains how factory ownership, material innovation, and hands-on experimentation are redefining luxury outdoor furniture—and why relationships and resilience matter more than ever. Recorded live at the Kitchen and Bath Industry Show in Orlando, this conversation with Brandon Kirshner, Partner and VP of Design at Azzurro Living, explores what it means to design, manufacture, and deliver luxury outdoor furniture with complete control over the process. Kirshner shares how owning and operating their own production facility provides a rare advantage in a crowded marketplace. This vertical integration allows Azzurro Living to oversee every step—from raw material sourcing to fabrication—ensuring performance, durability, and design integrity in extreme climates. The conversation also explores the realities of modern product manufacturing: navigating global instability, breaking through to specifiers in an oversaturated marketplace, and the renewed importance of in-person relationships. At its core, this is a story about design leadership, material obsession, and maintaining optimism in a rapidly shifting industry. Vertical Integration Changes Everything Full ownership of production facility ensures quality control Ability to experiment directly with materials and fabrication Eliminates reliance on third-party manufacturing limitations Material Innovation Drives Luxury Performance Products engineered for extreme heat and harsh winters Hands-on experimentation with rope, wicker, and aluminum Performance and longevity are core to brand value Design as the Core Differentiator Industrial design roots shape product philosophy Focus on original forms rather than “me-too” furniture Design enhances lifestyle, not just aesthetics Relationships Still Drive Specification Trade shows like High Point Market remain essential Face-to-face interaction builds trust and long-term partnerships Education through sales teams and specifier outreach is critical Resilience and Optimism in a Volatile Industry Navigating tariffs, supply chains, and global uncertainty Maintaining a solution-oriented mindset Viewing disruption as part of long-term growth In luxury outdoor furniture, control isn't just an operational advantage—it's a creative one. For Brandon Kirshner, Partner and VP of Design at Azzurro Living, ownership of the manufacturing process is the foundation of everything the company does. Unlike many competitors who rely on outsourced production, Azzurro Living operates its own factory, giving Kirshner and his team direct oversight of every detail, from raw materials to finished form. This control allows for something rare in today's manufacturing environment: true experimentation. Working directly with fabricators, Kirshner explores new weaving techniques, tests material durability, and refines structural details. The result is furniture engineered not just to look refined, but to perform in punishing environments—from desert heat exceeding 115 degrees to unpredictable seasonal extremes. Kirshner's path into furniture design began with industrial design studies, where exposure to iconic modernist designers revealed furniture as both functional object and artistic expression. That perspective continues to shape his work today, where innovation isn't driven by trend cycles, but by material curiosity and structural integrity. Launching Azzurro Living in 2020 presented immediate challenges, from supply chain disruption to economic uncertainty. Yet Kirshner views volatility as inevitable rather than exceptional. Experience has taught him that adaptability—not stability—is the constant in product manufacturing. Equally important is maintaining strong relationships within the design community. Trade shows, in-person meetings, and direct engagement remain essential tools for connecting with specifiers and building trust. In an increasingly crowded marketplace, Azzurro Living's approach is clear: control the process, push material boundaries, and let design lead. The result is furniture that reflects not just luxury, but intention. “Owning our factory gives us complete control—from raw material to finished product—and that changes everything.” “Design is the reason people invest in luxury furniture. Performance just makes it last.” “You can't innovate from a distance. Being hands-on with materials is where real progress happens.” “Trade shows and face-to-face interaction still matter because this industry runs on relationships.” “No matter what challenges come—tariffs, supply chain, geopolitics—we'll figure it out. That mindset is essential.” This is Cathy Purple Cherry – Founding Principal | Purple Cherry, freshly installed in the Convo By Design Icon Registry, we caught up at KBIS for a fresh take. Human-Centered Architecture, Resilience, and the Responsibility of Design Cathy Purple Cherry reflects on architecture as a lifelong act of care—supporting people through turbulence, embracing multigenerational living, rejecting trend culture, and using design as a tool for healing, connection, and growth. Recorded live at the Kitchen and Bath Industry Show, this conversation with Cathy Purple Cherry of Purple Cherry Architects explores architecture not as a moment of visual impact, but as a lifelong framework for human support. Purple Cherry shares her philosophy that architecture must evolve alongside the people it serves, especially during times of societal turbulence and personal change. Her work is grounded in human-centered thinking, emotional durability, and the belief that design can create stability amid chaos. The discussion moves beyond aesthetics into deeper territory—resilience shaped by hardship, the responsibility of creatives to provide clarity and options, and the importance of giving back. Purple Cherry also addresses the rise of multigenerational living, generational shifts in work culture, and the dangers of trend-driven design thinking. At its core, this conversation reveals architecture as both a professional discipline and a personal calling—one rooted in empathy, long-term thinking, and service. Architecture as Long-Term Support, Not Momentary Expression Design must serve people across decades, not just visual moments Architecture provides emotional stability during uncertain times Human-centered design is becoming essential, not optional Growth Through Challenge and Adversity Personal and professional hardship builds resilience Lessons learned shape better architects and stronger leaders Teaching and mentoring are essential responsibilities Multigenerational Living as a Cultural Shift Economic and social changes are reshaping American housing Families are staying connected longer Architecture must adapt to evolving family dynamics The Responsibility of Creatives in Times of Tension Architects provide clarity and solutions amid chaos Design can serve as a “relief valve” for societal stress Creatives help people reimagine how they live Rejecting Trend Culture in Favor of Lasting Design Trend cycles are often superficial and misleading True architecture transcends short-term aesthetic movements Enduring design comes from purpose, not prediction Giving Back as a Core Professional and Personal Value Sharing knowledge strengthens the profession Service to others creates deeper meaning in creative work Design is both a gift and a responsibility For Cathy Purple Cherry, architecture has never been about creating a moment. It's about supporting a lifetime. As founder of Purple Cherry Architects, with offices in Annapolis, Charlottesville, and New York City, Purple Cherry has built a practice grounded in the belief that design must evolve alongside the people it serves. Architecture, she explains, is not about solving for a single moment, but about creating environments that support human life over time. That perspective feels especially relevant today. As social, economic, and cultural turbulence reshapes how people live and work, architecture has taken on a new role—not just as shelter, but as emotional infrastructure. Spaces must provide calm, clarity, and flexibility, particularly as multigenerational living becomes more common and families remain connected longer under one roof. Purple Cherry rejects the idea that architecture should chase trends. While the industry often focuses on forecasting aesthetic movements, she believes true design transcends these cycles. Lasting architecture emerges from purpose, empathy, and a deep understanding of human behavior. Her perspective is shaped not only by decades of professional experience, but by personal adversity. Hardship, she explains, builds resilience and strengthens one's ability to serve others. That philosophy extends into her commitment to mentorship, service, and giving back—values she sees as inseparable from meaningful creative work. For Purple Cherry, architecture is both discipline and calling. It is a lifelong process of learning, teaching, and refining. And in a world defined by rapid change, her message is clear: the most important role of design is not to impress, but to support the people who live within it. “Architecture isn't about solving for a moment. It's about supporting people over time.” “Through suffering, we become stronger—and that's what allows us to better serve others.” “Anything in the built environment that can calm us and organize our lives becomes essential.” “Design should never be driven by trends. It should be driven by purpose and people.” “The meaning of life is discovering your gifts. The purpose of life is sharing them.”

Consumers aren't lacking for choice. Instead, they're usually drowning in a sea of options, and it's up to brands to find ways to go beyond simply removing friction and bring back the joy in shopping. Adding AI, and agentic AI into the mix can unlock new opportunities, but also brings with it new challenges. We're going to talk a little about all of it.We are recording here at eTail Palm Springs, and hearing from leading brands and the platforms and companies they rely on to innovate in retail.

Hey team! This week I'm talking with Dani Donovan, a neurodivergent artist and designer whose ADHD comics have been shared all over the internet. Dani holds a BFA in Visual Communication and Design and is the creator of The Anti-Planner. She's spent years as an advocate for neurodivergence, using her background in design to simplify those complicated, invisible daily struggles we all face. In our conversation today, we're diving into why traditional planners often feel like they never work how we want them to and how we can transition into a "toolbox" mindset instead. We explore the concept of "anti-shame" tactics and how to stop using mean-spirited self-motivation. Dani shares some of her favorite hacks for the mundane stuff, like an "Inbox Sprint" for tackling email debt and some unconventional strategies, including how she uses "worst drafts" and even Magic: The Gathering packs to keep herself moving. Check Out the Anti-Planner: https://www.anti-planner.com/ If you'd life to follow along on the show notes page you can find that at HackingYourADHD.com/277 YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/y835cnrk Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HackingYourADHD This Episode's Top Tips We often beat ourselves up for "failing" to use a planner reliably after three months, but the reality is that our brains stop responding to the same stimuli once the novelty wears off. Instead of trying to find the one system you'll use forever, you can try building a "toolbox" of multiple strategies. Executive dysfunction isn't a monolith; it's a collection of specific emotional roadblocks like being intimidated, over-committed, or paralyzed by perfectionism. Approaching every task with a standard to-do list is like trying to use a hammer on a screw; it's the wrong tool for the specific resistance you're facing. By identifying the specific flavor of your resistance first, you can choose a tool designed to dismantle that exact barrier. Many of us have spent a lifetime using "mean" self-talk as a primary motivator because getting in trouble was the only thing that worked in the past. However, shame is a paralyzing emotion that actually increases avoidance. Shifting to an objective, "engineering" mindset allows you to view a failure not as a character flaw, but as a data point . Asking "Why did this fail?" instead of "Why am I like this?" allows you to troubleshoot the system rather than blaming the person.  

It's difficult to quickly sum up Keith Granet's career: he's been a business consultant to high-profile interior designers for over three decades, but he's also the founder of the Leaders of Design, the chairman of the board at software platform Studio Designer, and the author of several books on the design business. More recently, Granet took over the Decorative Furnishings Association, and is in the process of launching an AI symposium. On this episode of the podcast he speaks with host Dennis Scully about the six qualities successful designers share, why professional education needs to change, and what the design business will look like in 2035.  This episode is sponsored by Ernesta and Resource FurnitureLINKSDennis ScullyBusiness of Home

☎️ Schedule a Business Evaluation Call with The Construction Leading Edge Team HERE – EPISODE 433: Construction business owner buried in reactive mode, watching your business grow while your stress grows with it? Working 60+ hour weeks, stressed about profit, team management, and scaling your construction company… and still feeling behind? If that hits a little too close to home, this episode is for you. Most construction business owners who feel overwhelmed assume they need more people, better software, or tighter time management. But that's rarely the issue. What's really happening is that you've outgrown the current design of your business, and more effort will only increase stress instead of freedom. In this episode of The Construction Leading Edge Podcast, I break down the five decisions that determine whether growth creates real freedom or a larger, more chaotic operation. I talk about eliminating root cause problems, designing around results, and systematizing your construction business so you stop being the bottleneck. You don't need to work harder. What got you here won't get you there. If you want to scale, it's time to redesign the system.

Interview - Ben Worthy from Airbus Protect The current state of OT security and business resilience In this episode of Enterprise Security Weekly, we sit down with Ben Worthy, OT Security Specialist at Airbus Protect, to explore the evolving landscape of business resilience in safety-critical sectors. With over 25 years of experience across aerospace, nuclear, water, oil & gas, and other industries, Ben shares insights on how organizations are adapting to the surge in disruptive cyberattacks—from ransomware targeting operational technology to GPS spoofing and supply chain incidents. We discuss major cases including the Boeing/LockBit ransom demand, the Jaguar Land Rover production shutdown, and the SITA passenger data breach, examining how aviation and other critical infrastructure sectors are separating safety risk from business continuity risk. Ben also breaks down the regulatory changes reshaping the industry, including EASA's October 2025 and February 2026 deadlines that tie cyber assurance directly to safety oversight, and what ENISA's latest numbers reveal about hacktivism and ransomware trends. Whether you're in aviation, nuclear, or any safety-critical sector, this conversation offers practical lessons on building resilience that keeps operations moving while addressing threats in real time.

Well, it turns out that breaches and vulnerabilities don't traditionally hurt financial performance all that much. Stocks recover, insurance covers the bulks of the losses, fines are paid, and lawsuits are settled. Most businesses can comfortably absorb the impact, so the threat of reputational harm or financial losses just aren't slowing them down. In the case of Ivanti, where the reputational harm was extreme, the company's companies continue to get hacked as critical vulnerabilities keep getting discovered in their products. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2026-02-19/vpn-used-by-us-government-failed-to-stop-china-state-sponsored-hackers In this topic segment, we don't aim to provide solutions to this problem, just the awareness that ethics, doing the right thing, and even signing the Secure by Design pledge don't seem to be enough to change vendor behavior when it comes to securing products.

Design students in Minnesota can submit ideas for a future George Floyd memorial near the intersection of 38th and Chicago in Minneapolis. Floyd's aunt, Angela Harrelson said in a statement about the contest, “when it comes to honoring George's legacy, we're calling on the best of the best to help bring that vision to life.” After Floyd was murdered by police in 2020, the site became an organic memorial, as people made art and left offerings there. Late last year, the Minneapolis city council approved a plan to reconstruct the area known as George Floyd Square. The student design contest will run until mid-May. One or more of the winning designs could become a permanent installation. Two of the people behind the design competition joined Minnesota Now host Nina Moini. Niall-Julian Universe is with the nonprofit Rise and Remember, and Anjali Ganapathy is director of undergraduate studies in architecture at the University of Minnesota.

In this episode of Meaningful Work Matters, host Andrew Soren finds himself in the hot seat. Dr. Llewellyn E. van Zyl, positive psychology pracademic and a returning guest of the show, steps in as interviewer to explore the story behind our host and what happens to the person underneath when they keep becoming someone new.Andrew has moved across a wide range of roles over his career: theatre producer, marketing professional, executive coach, organizational designer, and now Executive Director of the International Positive Psychology Association.Together, they trace what each transformation cost, what it left behind, and what Andrew has learned about identity, suffering, and meaning that scholarship alone could not have taught him.Key TakeawaysEvery major transition carries grief. The loss of self-efficacy that comes with stepping into a new role is real, worth acknowledging, and a signal worth paying attention to.Tension is information. Learning to distinguish between harmonious and dissonant tension across roles, values, and identities is a navigational skill that develops over time.Meaning and suffering are not opposites. Meaningful work often involves real cost, and the more useful question is how to stay inside that work without being consumed by it.Our core questions such as who am I and how do I bring more of that into what I'm doing, may change over the course of a lifetime, but often find their ways back in new forms.Why This Episode MattersMany conversations about meaningful work in this podcast have focused on how to find it, design it, or measure it. This one goes somewhere less often visited: what it actually costs to keep becoming someone new, and what remains stable underneath all the roles we play. About Our GuestDr. Llewellyn E. van Zyl is a professor of positive psychology at the Optentia Research Unit, North-West University of South Africa, and Chief Solutions Architect at Psynalytics. His work sits at the intersection of artificial intelligence, employee wellbeing, and the measurement of human flourishing. He is the Program Chair of the IPPA Virtual Summit on AI and the Future of Wellbeing, taking place March 23–27, 2026.Andrew Soren is the Founder & CEO of Eudaimonic by Design, a global network helping organizations design environments where people thrive, act with purpose, and deliver their best. He is also the Executive Director of the International Positive Psychology Association. For over 25 years, Andrew has helped leading organizations foster values-based leadership, meaningful work, and well-being at scale.

In this video, I break down the 5 biggest mistakes clothing brands make — mistakes that quietly kill sales, credibility, and growth even when you're working hard. I've seen these issues repeatedly after working with 500+ clothing brands, generating millions of social media views, and building my own brands past $1M in online sales. We'll talk about brand clarity, website credibility, social proof, differentiation, and systems — the foundational pieces that turn a clothing brand into something people actually trust and buy from. If you're starting a clothing brand, running a streetwear brand, or trying to grow your apparel business, this will help you fix the fundamentals that matter most.

Today on Joe Oltmann Untamed, we're unpacking the deliberate transformation of America that started with the 1965 Hart-Celler Act and never stopped. What was once a 90% white, overwhelmingly Christian nation has been reshaped through open borders, asylum loopholes, and mass migration 53 million foreign-born in the last year alone while business elites chase cheap labor and ideologues push to fundamentally remake our culture. The consequences are everywhere: churches sold off and turned into mosques, public streets in New York and Philadelphia filled with mass prayers that would shut down any Christian gathering, and schools quietly accommodating Ramadan while sidelining American traditions.Europe is the warning sign we can't ignore Portugal's streets packed with starving crowds waiting to break fast, Sweden facing an Afrocentric rape epidemic, and 50 million Muslims now living there compared to just 500,000 three decades ago. Here at home, we see the same pattern: forced multiculturalism eroding our identity, with politicians selling out the American people for votes and profit. Borders, language, and culture are under siege, and the people who promised to protect them are either complicit or asleep at the wheel.This episode is a no-holds-barred wake-up call for every American who still believes in the country we inherited. From the demographic shift that's rewriting our future to the cultural takeover playing out in real time, we're laying out the facts and connecting the dots so you can see what's really happening and what we lose if we don't fight back. Tune in for the raw truth, no apologies, and the urgency to reclaim our nation before it's gone for good. You won't walk away unchanged.

JUPITER, Fla. -- Thomas Saggese has questions for the host of the Best Podcast in Baseball. Moments after finishing his first ever start in center field for the Cardinals, Saggese joins baseball writer Derrick Goold to talk about the transition to a new position and how much work he wants there before playing it in the regular season. But that's not all. Through the years, Saggese has often shifted interviews to ask great questions he has about history, statistics, and specifically voting for the MVP, other awards, and the National Baseball Hall of Fame. He was invited on the podcast so he could flip the script and ask those questions as part of a conversation. What follows is a deep dive into the decisions that go with a ballot, whether it's the MVP ballot or the Hall of Fame. The conversation explores how measuring a player with statistics contrasts with how a player measures themselves. Saggese talks about how he values batting average but avoids looking at it, and how when he's thinking about hitting he's seeking feel. Goold wonders what the reaction would be if he explained his votes for MVP and Hall of Fame by saying it just "felt right." And yet there's more common ground between statistics measuring a players production, especially as they evolve, and how a player works for that production. The podcast was recorded outside the Cardinals' new spring training facility, where construction continues. You'll hear it. More Post-Dispatch podcasts.  Please consider subscribing. In its 14th season as one of the first and most widely heard podcasts on baseball and the Cardinals, the Best Podcast in Baseball has reached a new season-high with 30 episodes. Each episode is sponsored weekly by Closets by Design of St. Louis, is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and lead baseball writer Derrick Goold.

Click here to sign up for Patreon B-Sides Formed in late 90s Northern California, Tsunami Bomb stood out immediately, blending sharp lyrics, melodic hooks, keyboards as a true lead instrument, and dual female vocals into a sound that mixed punk urgency with pop instincts and a darker edge. Early releases like The Invasion from Within! and constant touring built a global following, while 2002's The Ultimate Escape on Kung Fu Records pushed them further, later landing on Rolling Stone's Top 50 pop punk albums of all time. After lineup shifts and a long hiatus, they returned in 2015 with founding members Dominic Davi, Oobliette Sparks, and Gabriel Lindman alongside Kate Jacobi and Andy Pohl, ushering in a new era that led to 2019's The Spine That Binds on Alternative Tentacles. Still evolving, they've continued touring the U.S. and Europe, and in 2026 teamed with Hammerbombs for the split EP Bombs Away! on Rad Girlfriend Records, proving that nearly three decades in, Tsunami Bomb is still restless, relevant, and very much alive.

Guest: Deric Keller - Certified Business Coach with Exit Momentum, former $10M business ownerEpisode Overview: Financial advisor David Chudyk interviews business coach Deric Keller about strategies that make businesses more profitable, sellable, and sustainable while improving owner wellbeing.Key Topics Discussed:1. Common Hiring MistakesFounders often hire to "fill a seat" rather than designing the role firstThis creates "Frankenstein roles" that are hard to replace and measureBest practice: Use the "elevate and delegate" model - categorize tasks by what you love/hate and are good/bad at, then delegate the bottom tier2. The Hustle TrapBusiness owners often wear burnout as a "badge of honor"Example: Owner doing parts runs while $60K in bids pile up (70-80% close rate)Key insight: Are you busy with the right things that generate revenue?Delegate tasks you hate/aren't good at to focus on high-value activities3. Tracking the Wrong MetricsMost founders track profit incorrectly by hiding expenses to avoid taxesThis hurts: credit applications, equipment financing, home purchases, and business valuationClean books = higher business value4. What Drives Business Valuation Factors that LOWER value:Over-reliance on one customer (lack of diversification)Weak human capital (high turnover, inexperienced staff)Missing systems/processes/intellectual propertyPoor financial predictabilitySingle vendor dependencyFactors that INCREASE value:Customer diversificationStrong, experienced teamDocumented systems and processesRecurring revenue (3-6 point multiple increase)Clean financial records5. Understanding Business MultiplesMost businesses sell for a multiple of EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization) or net profitTypical multiples: 1-3x (weak business) to 6-15x (strong business with recurring revenue, great systems)SaaS companies often valued on revenue multiples (though AI is currently driving these down)Who buys you affects the multiple (strategic buyer vs. PE firm)6. When Hustle Stops WorkingHard work creates bottlenecks when you're the decision-maker for everythingLeads to: burnout, key person dependency, slowed growthSolution: Decentralized command (like military model) - give teams the mission, let them executeBalance: You can't give equal TIME to business/family/health, but you can give equal INTENTION7. The 3D Diagnostic ModelDirection: Where is the company going? What are the goals?Design: What's the structure, systems, processes, financial model?Dynamic: What's the human element? Who might be holding you back?8. Leadership DevelopmentLeadership is a learned skill, not innate talentRequires repetition and practice ("reps")Best professionals in every field have coaches9. Work-Life Integration StrategiesBe strategic with focus and intentionWhen with family: phone down, fully presentGym time: have a plan, execute, leave energizedDaily practices: journaling, meditation, prayer, gratitudeLearn-teach-implement cycle: consume content, teach it to someone, apply it10. Definition of Wealth Deric's answer: Legacy - Making an impact that outlasts you, influencing people you'll never meet through the business owners and teams you coachCall to Action: Visit ExitMomentum.com to:Take a free business assessmentBook a 3D diagnostic call (no cost)Access free tools and insightsSchedule an in-person leadership labKey Takeaway: A sellable business is a good business, even if you never sell it. Building systems, diversifying revenue, and developing your team creates value regardless of your exit timeline.Links referenced in this episode:www.weeklywealthpodcast.com/endgameexitmomentum.com

As promised, I'm re-airing one of the most requested interviews from the archives: my conversation with Nate Berkus, originally recorded in 2015—ten years ago.A lot has changed for Nate since then, but when I listened back, I was struck by how timeless this episode is—especially right now. My mother-in-law and I are huge fans, and for my birthday she gave me Nate's latest book, Foundations: Timeless Design That Feels Personal. And that's exactly the theme you'll hear in today's conversation: your home should tell your story—and your money should support a life that feels authentic.We talk about money fear versus abundance, building a business, learning when to ask for help, and Nate's surprisingly great financial habits—including his rule about keeping your wallet organized as a form of respecting money.
