We dig into real financial data from hundreds of auto repair shops across the U.S., based on actual bookkeeping, not surveys.Download your free 2024 Automotive Industry Benchmark Report: https://info.paarmelis.com/2024-automotive-industry-benchmark-reportKey Takeaways:Average monthly sales dropped from $149K (2023) to $123K (2024), but sales per advisor, technician, and bay remained steady.Gross profit % increased (from 51 % → 52 %), and overall expenses dropped (35 % → 33 %), boosting shop profitability.Advertising spend fell (3 % → 2 % of sales): shops that advertise less might be missing opportunities.Productivity plunged (57 % → 47.6 %)—likely due to fixed staff levels & fewer cars in 2024.Context matters: metrics like average repair order, car count, and productivity are interconnected—local benchmarks offer more accurate insight.Thanks to our partner PromotiveIt's time to hire a superstar for your business; what a grind you have in front of you.

Thanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech TrainingKey Takeaways:Survey Demographics & LimitationsSkewed Representation: 62% of respondents had 20+ years of experience, while entry-level and mid-career techs were underrepresented. Geographically, responses were heavy in the East/Midwest but sparse in central/western U.S.ASE Certification Bias: 80% of respondents held ASE certifications, contrasting with the broader industry (only ~25% of U.S. technicians are ASE-certified). Fanslow urges broader participation for accurate data.What Technicians WantProper shop equipment (87%) – Includes OE tools (e.g., GTS+ for Toyota/Honda), ADAS calibration tools, and powertrain tables 210.Paid vacation (83%) and retirement plans (72%) – Fanslow notes ambiguity in definitions (e.g., weeks offered) and calls for industry standardization.Paid training (65%) – Despite high demand, many techs underutilize training opportunities.Hourly/salary (majority) > hourly + production bonus (25%) > flat rate (20%). Fanslow attributes this to desire for stability, especially in rust-prone regions where labor guides may be unrealistic.Industry Pain PointsLow Satisfaction: Only 49% would recommend their shop to a friend. Poor communication (30% approval) and inadequate mentorship (

Paula Amato is a leading expert in female reproductive health and infertility, widely recognized for her contributions to advancing fertility treatment and research. In this episode, which follows last week's conversation on male fertility, Paula explores the biology of female fertility, including how hormonal changes regulate the menstrual cycle and ovulation, what those patterns reveal about fertility potential, and why both partners should be evaluated early in infertility workups. She discusses the role of the fallopian tubes, the causes of miscarriage, the impact of age and lifestyle on fertility, and treatment options for conditions like PCOS—including the emerging use of GLP-1 agonists. The episode also covers the evolution of IVF, advances in pre-implantation genetic testing, egg freezing, and the promise and limitations of next-generation reproductive technologies.

John Vervaeke and Sebastian Morello engage in an expansive dialogue that traverses the authority crisis in the Catholic Church, the enduring wisdom of Neoplatonism, and the transformative power of Hermetic practices. Anchored in Morello's provocative new book, Mysticism, Magic and Monasteries, the conversation unpacks the “double crisis” of our time- one of meaning and one of sanctity, and argues that modernity functions like a spell that must be broken. Together, they examine how monasticism once offered a stable and embodied sanctity, and why recovering mysticism, ritual magic (in the Hermetic sense), and lived devotion might be essential for collective reawakening.  Notes:  (0:00) Welcome to The Lectern (0:30) John reconnects with Sebastian Morello  (3:00) Sebastian Gives a Brief Introduction of Himself (6:00) Diagnosing the Double Crisis - Meaning and Authority (9:00) Critique of Modernity and the Catholic Church (12:00) The Loss of Embodied Wisdom in the West (20:00) Neoplatonism and the Need for Relational Ontology (26:30) Philosophical Anthropology and Cosmic Personhood (31:00) Modernity's Ontological Truncation (38:30) Sacred Authority and the Failures of Clericalism (42:00) Monasteries as Alternatives to Institutional Collapse (49:00) Christian Liturgy as Baptized Theurgy (54:00) Hermetic Cognition - Practicing the Theocentric Vision (1:00:00) Recovering Sacred Imagery - Tarot, Ritual, and Mystical Space (1:04:00) Digital Gnosticism and the Threat to Embodiment (1:07:00) The Future of Privacy - Personhood, Property, and Charity (1:11:00) The Philosophical Silk Road - East-West Interpenetration

Thanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech TrainingKey Takeaways:Ubuntu – What It MeansUbuntu is an African philosophy that translates to "I am because we are."It emphasizes collective success: "I succeed because you succeed."Matt discovered the concept through a documentary on the Boston Celtics.Lessons from the Boston CelticsThe Celtics' success was built on teamwork, sacrifice, and shared goals.The "Big Three" (Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen) were asked by Coach Doc Rivers: "What are you willing to give up to win?"Unlike professional athletes, most employees don't have financial security, making true teamwork harder to achieve.Applying Ubuntu in the Auto Repair IndustrySuccess in a shop depends on collaboration, not just individual performance.Leaders must foster a culture where employees support each other's growth.Challenges:Money can distort priorities—owners and employees must trust that success will be shared.Transparency is key—profits should lead to better pay, equipment, and shop improvements.The Risk of Greed & Lack of AccountabilitySome owners struggle to share profits even when business improves.Employees may also lose integrity if incentives aren't aligned with teamwork.Solution: Clear structures (bonuses, profit-sharing) that reward collective effort.Building a Winning Shop CultureInvest in team development—better tools, training, and processes.Encourage knowledge-sharing instead of hoarding skills.Success isn't zero-sum—multiple shops can thrive without undercutting each other.Actionable Insights:For Owners/Managers:Back up "team-first" talk with real profit-sharing and shop improvements.Show employees how their sacrifices lead to shared rewards.For Technicians/Advisors:Support colleagues—helping others succeed lifts the whole shop.Push for transparency if incentives feel unbalanced.For Everyone:Watch sports documentaries (like the Celtics' story) for leadership lessons.Adopt Ubuntu: "I am better because we are better."Listener Q&A Submission: Have a question for Matt?

Paul also dispels common myths about testosterone replacement therapy and its effects on fertility, providing strategies for preserving fertility while on TRT. The episode also highlights cutting-edge advances in reproductive medicine, from genetic testing and sperm sorting to emerging treatments for infertility. We discuss: The incredibly complex and hostile journey sperm must take to fertilize an egg [3:00]; How sperm are made: meiosis, genetic variation, and the continuous renewal influenced by environmental factors [9:00]; The built-in filter that weeds out genetically abnormal sperm [14:45]; How sperm are finalized in form and function: tail formation, energy storage, and chemical sensing abilities [18:30]; How to optimize conception through the timing of sex, ejaculation frequency, and understanding the sperm lifecycle [26:30]; Male infertility and Paul's diagnostic approach: detailed history, a physical exam, and identifying red flags [33:30]; Viral infections that can affect the testes and potentially lead to sterility [40:30]; Semen analysis: morphology, motility, and hormonal clues to male fertility [45:45]; Effects of medication, microplastics, stress, and exercise on fertility [57:15]; Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) and male fertility [1:06:00]; Restoring fertility after prolonged use of exogenous testosterone [1:25:00]; Effects of heat and cold exposure on fertility and sperm quality [1:36:00]; How different levels of exercise—especially cycling—affect male fertility [1:41:45]; How alcohol, marijuana, and nicotine affect male fertility [1:46:00]; Why type 2 diabetes is a risk factor for male infertility [1:50:00]; How varicoceles—a common cause of male infertility—are diagnosed and treated [1:51:15]; Genetic factors that affect fertility [1:54:00]; The impact of lifestyle and environmental exposures on fertility [1:56:30]; The evidence (or lack thereof) behind stem cell and PRP therapies for male infertility, and how lifestyle and non-invasive interventions often lead to successful conception [2:00:30]; Considerations for sperm banking, and how paternal age impacts fertility planning and offspring health [2:05:00]; Semen quality as a biomarker: linking male fertility, longevity, and preventative health through Medicine 3.0 and epigenetics [2:14:45]; and More.

Thanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech TrainingKey Takeaways:Ubuntu – What It MeansUbuntu is an African philosophy that translates to "I am because we are."It emphasizes collective success: "I succeed because you succeed."Matt discovered the concept through a documentary on the Boston Celtics.Lessons from the Boston CelticsThe Celtics' success was built on teamwork, sacrifice, and shared goals.The "Big Three" (Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen) were asked by Coach Doc Rivers: "What are you willing to give up to win?"Unlike professional athletes, most employees don't have financial security, making true teamwork harder to achieve.Applying Ubuntu in the Auto Repair IndustrySuccess in a shop depends on collaboration, not just individual performance.Leaders must foster a culture where employees support each other's growth.Challenges:Money can distort priorities—owners and employees must trust that success will be shared.Transparency is key—profits should lead to better pay, equipment, and shop improvements.The Risk of Greed & Lack of AccountabilitySome owners struggle to share profits even when business improves.Employees may also lose integrity if incentives aren't aligned with teamwork.Solution: Clear structures (bonuses, profit-sharing) that reward collective effort.Building a Winning Shop CultureInvest in team development—better tools, training, and processes.Encourage knowledge-sharing instead of hoarding skills.Success isn't zero-sum—multiple shops can thrive without undercutting each other.Actionable Insights:For Owners/Managers:Back up "team-first" talk with real profit-sharing and shop improvements.Show employees how their sacrifices lead to shared rewards.For Technicians/Advisors:Support colleagues—helping others succeed lifts the whole shop.Push for transparency if incentives feel unbalanced.For Everyone:Watch sports documentaries (like the Celtics' story) for leadership lessons.Adopt Ubuntu: "I am better because we are better."Listener Q&A Submission: Have a question for Matt?

Before Richard Carson wrote The Book of Change, he was writing letters to newspaper editors and fixing chaos in city hall. In Part 2, we unpack how Richard's 39-step framework came to life—from a career shaped by failures to a model refined by fieldwork. Richard explains why he borrowed diagnostic tools from medicine, how COVID and AI are reshaping his thinking, and what consultants often forget: you're not there to impress, you're there to listen. It's a masterclass in what it really takes to move people—and systems—without losing your common sense.Key Highlights of Our Interview:The Model That Stuck“Every step in the 39 comes from something that broke.”Richard's framework isn't theoretical—it's field-tested.You're Not a Consultant. You're a Doctor.“I borrowed from the NIH diagnostic model.”Why organizational dysfunction is more like illness than inefficiency.Don't Skip the Kickoff“You don't send an email. You sit down, answer questions, get buy-in.”The part of change most leaders rush—and shouldn't.AI Isn't a Leader“You can't automate trust. You can't outsource belief.”His biggest concern about the rise of artificial intelligence.How Change Shows Up at Home“I told my boss I was going back to school. He said no. I quit.”Why he applies his own model to life, not just work.Listen Like It Matters“I don't need your advice—I need you to hear me.”The line from his wife that became a leadership principle._______________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Richard H.

Before Richard Carson wrote The Book of Change, he was writing letters to newspaper editors and fixing chaos in city hall. In Part One, he retraces the early detours—from archaeology hopeful to urban planner to accidental consultant. With every chapter, one theme stayed constant: real change happens when you stop assuming and start listening. Whether it's a time-tracking nightmare or a consultant who forgot to swap client names in the proposal, Richard's stories cut through the noise to reveal why change fails—and what to do instead.Key Highlights of Our Interview:From Trowels to Town Halls“I was studying archaeology. Then I realized I liked systems, not shovels.”Why solving institutional puzzles beat digging for ancient ones.Everyone's Lying—But They Don't Mean To“The problem they describe is never the actual problem.”Richard explains why surface issues are just the smoke, not the fire.The Timecard Horror Story“They tracked every 15 minutes. It was organizational madness.”A micromanagement case study that went down in flames—and what it taught him about autonomy.Consulting Found Him First“One day I was hiring consultants. The next, I became one.”A random audit leads to a career revelation.Communication Rule #1: Pass the Grocery Store Test“If you can't explain it in plain English in front of the broccoli stand, it's too complicated.”What city planning taught him about clarity—and why most leaders flunk this test.Crisis Is a Terrible Thing to Waste“People don't want to change unless there's blood on the floor.”How to turn urgency into alignment without fearmongering._______________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Richard H.

Thanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech TrainingIn this episode, Matt Fanslow dives into listener-submitted questions, covering a wide range of automotive diagnostic and repair topics. From personal influences in the industry to technical advice on exhaust gas analyzers, catalytic converter testing, and ADAS calibrations, Matt shares his insights and expertise.1. Who Do You Try to Emulate?Matt reflects on the mentors and industry leaders who have shaped his approach to diagnostics and repair.TV Doctors vs. Real Mentors: While he jokes about emulating fictional doctors like Hawkeye Pierce, Gregory House, and Perry Cox, Matt credits real-world experts like John Thornton, Randy Burkholder, Jim Kemper, Matthew Ragsdale, Harvey Chan, and John Riegel for their influence.The Value of Deep Research: Matt highlights the importance of studying SAE documents, technical manuals, and foundational books like Internal Combustion Engine Fundamentals by John B. Heywood.Thought Leaders in the Industry: He also mentions Jim Wilson (ScanShare.io), Scott Manna, and others for their diagnostic methodologies and problem-solving approaches.Takeaway: Success in automotive diagnostics comes from continuous learning, leveraging industry resources, and adopting best practices from experienced professionals.2. Exhaust Gas Analyzers – What to Look For?A listener asks about choosing the right exhaust gas analyzer for their shop. Matt breaks down the key features:PC/Android Interface: Essential for graphing gas readings (lambda, air-fuel ratio) over time.Portability: Needed for on-road testing to monitor performance under real driving conditions.Fast Sample Times: Look for analyzers with low transfer delays (under 5 seconds) for accurate real-time data.Cost Consideration: Expect to invest 5,000–5,000–7,000+ for a quality unit. Takeaway: A good exhaust gas analyzer should provide real-time data logging, lambda calculations, and portability for effective diagnostics.3. Testing Catalytic Converters – Temperature vs. PCM DiagnosticsA student questions the validity of using infrared thermometers to test catalytic converters after hearing conflicting advice.PCM Algorithms Are Superior: Modern vehicles use complex oxygen storage calculations—far more accurate than manual temperature checks.Why Temperature Testing Falls Short:A "bad" cat might still pass a temp test.A "good" cat might fail due to external factors (exhaust leaks, sensor issues).Best Practice: Trust OBD-II diagnostics, fuel control verification, and factory procedures over manual methods.Takeaway: Always verify fuel control, exhaust integrity, and PCM data before condemning a catalytic converter.4. ADAS Calibrations – Troubleshooting Static Windshield Camera IssuesA technician struggles with static calibrations for windshield-mounted cameras. Matt offers troubleshooting tips:Check the Windshield Glass: Aftermarket glass is a common culprit for calibration failures.Lighting Conditions:Too much LED glare? Try diffusers or dimming shop lights.Use shipping blankets to reduce reflections on the hood/dash.Target Placement: Ensure the target is positioned per OEM specs—avoid background interference.RTFM (Read the Factory Manual): Always follow OEM procedures for target setup.Takeaway: Calibration issues often stem from glass quality, lighting, or incorrect target alignment—double-check these factors first.Listener Q&A Submission: Have a question for Matt?

In this episode, Brad shares a recent case study from the University of Minnesota's dairy research center, where a group of spring-born calves experienced widespread scours. He walks through the onset of symptoms, including diarrhea, depression, and reduced milk intake, primarily in calves on an automatic feeder. Diagnostic testing confirmed rotavirus A as the culprit, ruling out other common pathogens like salmonella, cryptosporidium, and coronavirus.Brad explains the importance of prompt treatment with electrolytes and continued milk feeding, emphasizing that hydration—not antibiotics—is key to recovery from viral scours. He also discusses how CT values from lab results helped indicate viral load and severity. While no calves were lost, the outbreak highlighted the critical role of sanitation, consistency in protocols, and whole-system prevention strategies including vaccination and colostrum quality.Listeners will gain practical tips on treating and preventing scours, especially from rotavirus, and hear an honest account of real-world challenges in calf health management.Causes and prevention of dairy calf scoursQuestions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory

Thanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech TrainingKey Discussion Points:What is Reverse Benchmarking?Traditional benchmarking focuses on studying what competitors do well, but reverse benchmarking involves analyzing what they do poorly and capitalizing on those weaknesses.Two interpretations:Looking at other industries for innovative ideas (e.g., team-building activities from tech companies).Example: Some shops now adopt spontaneous team outings (baseball games, go-karting) inspired by Silicon Valley culture.Staying within the automotive industry to identify gaps in competitors' customer experience or service offerings.Applying Reverse Benchmarking in Auto RepairCustomer Experience:Visit competitor shops (dealerships, independents) and note flaws—uncomfortable waiting room chairs, poor TV choices, limited snack/drink options.Actionable Fixes: Upgrade seating, offer neutral TV content (e.g., Joy of Painting), provide filtered water instead of plastic bottles.Market Gaps:If competitors specialize in European cars (like Seth Thorson's shop), consider specializing in underserved markets (e.g., Asian brands like Hyundai, Kia, Nissan).Focus on services competitors avoid (advanced diagnostics, programming, driveline work).Technician-Level Reverse BenchmarkingIn a shop with a star "R&R tech," instead of competing directly, fill gaps (e.g., diagnostics, electrical troubleshooting) to become indispensable."See a need, fill a need"—position yourself as the go-to for overlooked but critical tasks.Why It WorksCreates a unique value proposition—whether for customers (better experience) or employers (specialized skills).Helps shops stand out in saturated markets by addressing unmet needs.Final Thoughts:Reverse benchmarking isn't new, but it's underutilized in automotive.Whether you're a shop owner, manager, or tech, observing competitors' weaknesses can reveal opportunities for growth.Contact InformationEmail Matt: mattfanslowpodcast@gmail.comDiagnosing the Aftermarket A - Z YouTube Channel Subscribe & Review: Loved this episode?

In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast, Rob welcomes back Enda King to discuss the complexities of athletic hip and groin pain. He explores the upcoming conference where Enda will present on leading hip and groin issues, delve into the challenges of diagnosing and managing these injuries, and discuss the importance of understanding the underlying causes of pain. Enda shares insights from his role in Doha at Aspetar, focusing on clinical pathways and the evolution of rehabilitation practices. The conversation highlights the significance of a comprehensive assessment and the need for tailored rehabilitation strategies to effectively address groin pain in athletes. In this conversation, Enda discusses the complexities of managing groin pain in athletes, emphasizing the importance of understanding movement patterns and asymmetries. He outlines strategies for assessing and monitoring recovery, as well as injury prevention techniques. The discussion also touches on the evolution of rehabilitation practices and the trends observed in the field over the past five years. Main talking points: Diagnosis of groin pain is complicated due to variability in symptoms and anatomy Hip and groin pain involves a combination of load, biomechanics, and anatomy Surgical options for groin pain are limited and often unnecessary Failed rehab often results from a narrow focus on pain rather than underlying issues Effective rehabilitation requires identifying all contributing factors to pain Assessment should include both strength and motor control evaluations Asymmetry in movement is crucial for injury assessment Pain provocation tests are key indicators of RTP progress Rotational abdominal work is vital for injury prevention Understanding human movement as a skill is essential

Misalignment here shows up as team overwhelm, scattered priorities, and disengaged stakeholders.T — Team & Ownership Are roles, responsibilities, and decision-making authority clearly defined? A deficit here leads to bottlenecks, dropped balls, and over-reliance on you.R — Resources Is your funding sustainable and aligned with your growth? Constant feast-or-famine fundraising points to a Revenue Deficit.O — Operations Do your systems support efficiency and scale? If your team is stuck reinventing the wheel or bogged down in manual tasks, this pillar needs work.N — Networked Capacity Are you leveraging advisors, partners, and your broader ecosystem — or carrying the mission alone?G — Governance Is your board engaged at the right level?

Contributor: Travis Barlock, MD Educational Pearls: Wheezing is classically heard in asthma and COPD, but it can be the result of a wide range of processes that cause airflow limitation Narrowed bronchioles lead to turbulent airflow → creates the wheezing Crackles (rales) suggest pulmonary edema which is often due to heart failure Approximately 35% of heart failure patients have bronchial edema, which can also produce wheezing COPD and heart failure can coexist in a patient, and both of these diseases can cause wheezing It's vital to differentiate whether the wheezing is due to the patient's COPD or their heart failure because the treatment differs Diagnosing wheezing due to heart failure (cardiac asthma): Symptoms: orthopnea, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea Diagnostic tools: bedside ultrasound Treatment: diuresis and BiPAP for respiratory support Not all wheezing is asthma Consider heart failure in the differential and tailor treatment accordingly References 1.

Last week, the National Multiple Sclerosis Society and the European Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis convened a meeting in Dublin, Ireland, to dive deeper into what a new framework for describing MS might look like.   There's still a tremendous amount of work to be done here. But, considering that whatever language is eventually adopted will affect every person living with MS, I want to keep you fully informed on this important work. So I'm devoting this entire episode of the podcast to sharing conversations I had with three of the attendees at the meeting in Dublin.    First, you'll hear from Dr. Bruce Bebo, the National MS Society's Executive Vice President of Research. Then, you'll hear from Dr. Daniel Ontaneda, a neurologist specializing in MS at the Cleveland Clinic, and, finally, you'll hear from Kathy Smith, who's lived with MS for the past 20 years.   As you listen to these conversations, I think you'll hear three slightly different perspectives, but you'll also hear some of the broad concepts and ideas around which there was a high level of agreement at our meeting. We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??! This Week: A meeting to discuss moving to a biologically based description of MS  :22 Dr. Bruce Bebo discusses how a new framework for describing MS could impact MS research and people living with MS  3:45 Dr. Daniel Ontaneda describes some of the shortcomings of the current MS course descriptors and discusses how a new framework for describing MS could impact   people living with MS  17:34 Kathy Smith explains how current MS course descriptors fail to fully capture her experience as someone living with MS, and explains how new course descriptors could benefit people living with MS  26:24 What's next in the work to develop new course descriptors for MS  35:20 Share this episode  35:44 Have you downloaded the free RealTalk MS app?  36:03 SHARE THIS EPISODE OF REALTALK MS Just copy this link & paste it into your text or email: https://realtalkms.com/403 ADD YOUR VOICE TO THE CONVERSATION I've always thought about the RealTalk MS podcast as a conversation.
