What is Pommeau? Pommeau is a: fortified blend of fresh apple must (unfermented) and apple brandy (typically Calvados in Normandy or Lambig in Brittany). The unfermented apple juice and brandy are combined before fermentation, which halts the process entirely and preserves natural sweetness. By law in France, Pommeau must be aged a minimum of 18 months in oak and produced within designated regions. It's rich, amber-colored, and served as an apéritif. It is consider to be a French heritage drink shaped by decades of refinement and protected standards. When did Pommeau receive AOC status? Pommeau received its official Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée (AOC) status in 1991, formalizing the traditional method and legally protecting what can and cannot be called Pommeau within France. And in America? If you ask what Pommeau is in the United States, the answer is: nothing defined. There is no legal TTB definition, no standard of identity, and no trade agreement protecting the name. Yet hundreds of U.S. labels already use the word…sometimes accurately, sometimes loosely, often inconsistently. So the question becomes, "What happens when a French classic with strict rules lands on U.S. labels with no rules at all?" That's the conversation American isn't having… yet. In this episode, Ria speaks with alcohol beverage attorney Lindsey Zahn to unpack what it means to use the word Pommeau in the U.S.—legally, culturally, ethically—and what cider makers and consumers should consider going forward.

Key Topics Covered What Pommeau legally means in France Why the TTB has no definition for Pommeau How hundreds of U.S. labels were approved without consistency The difference between fortified cider vs. Pommeau Why a COLA approval does not protect you from trademark or trade disputes U.S.–EU trade agreements and why Pommeau is not protected Risks for current makers using "Pommeau" on labels Why "American Pommeau," "Pommeau-style," or accurate class/type statements may reduce risk The opportunity for U.S. cider associations to create a new American term A call for a naming contest—what the U.S. cider world could build together Why truth in labeling matters beyond regulatory compliance Why this conversation needed to happen…ten years ago Contact info for Lindsey Zahn P.C.

In this episode of Risk! Engineers Talk Governance, due diligence engineers Richard Robinson and Gaye Francis discuss Formal Safety Assessments. Key highlights include:A Formal Safety Assessment (FSA) is meant to provide a logical and reasoned argument that can withstand legal scrutiny.Formal Safety Assessments should identify the critical issues of concern, the current controls in place, and the further practical controls that could be considered, as well as the reasoning for implementing or not implementing those further controls. Many FSAs lack this logical reasoning and instead just list risks and general controls, without clearly connecting them to the specific hazards. Threat barrier diagrams can help provide a logical structure by clearly showing the issues of concern, the controls, and the consequences. Formal Safety Assessments should be concise and focused, not hundreds of pages long, as the key is to present a clear, robust argument. Formal Safety Assessments should also be regularly reviewed and updated to reflect changing context and availability of new controls, rather than just being recycled from previous versions. For further information on Richard and Gaye's consulting work with R2A, head to https://www.r2a.com.au, where you'll also find their booklets (store) and a sign-up for their quarterly newsletter to keep informed of their latest news and events. Gaye is also founder of Australian women's safety workwear company Apto PPE https://www.aptoppe.com.au.

In this episode of Risk! Engineers Talk Governance, due diligence engineers Richard Robinson and Gaye Francis revisit the topic of Safety Culture.They review the work of Professor Patrick Hudson, who identified five levels of safety culture, from pathological (who cares as long as we're not caught) to generative (safety is how we do business around here).Richard and Gaye observe that many organisations tend to be more reactive, focusing on implementing controls after incidents occur, rather than striving for a generative safety culture. They note that the transition from a bureaucratic, rule-based approach to a proactive, thinking-based approach is challenging, and caution the use of AI, which can lead to a lack of critical thinking.They end with how organisations should aspire to a generative safety culture, even though it may be an aspirational goal, and highlight the need for clear commitment to safety at all levels of the organisation, rather than just from Board level. For further information on Richard and Gaye's consulting work with R2A, head to https://www.r2a.com.au, where you'll also find their booklets (store) and a sign-up for their quarterly newsletter to keep informed of their latest news and events.Gaye is also founder of Australian women's safety workwear company Apto PPE https://www.aptoppe.com.au.

Ever feel like your entrepreneurial journey is less a straight line and more a frantic chase after a "shiny object squirrel?" Then you're in for a treat! On this episode of The Note Closers Show, we sit down with Brian Royster, affectionately known as "The Note Genius," for a refreshingly honest conversation about building a note and real estate investing empire from the ground up – missteps, lessons, and all.Brian's story isn't one of overnight success, but a testament to relentless effort, learning from hard knocks, and finding his niche in the lucrative world of note investing. He's not here to sell you a dream of retiring tomorrow with 50 grand; he's here to share the real hustle, the expensive tuition fees, and the breakthrough moments that led him to find his stride.Tune in to discover:The Unfiltered Hustle: Mobile Homes, Bandit Signs, and a $10K "Tuition Fee." Brian takes us back to his roots, detailing his early ventures into wholesaling mobile homes in California – a pursuit he describes as a "third job" involving hours of driving and dealing with park managers for "chattel" properties. He candidly shares the painful lesson of losing $10,000 on a laundromat deal due to a ghosting partner, emphasizing the critical importance of contracts and proof of funds. This segment is a masterclass in learning the hard way, so you don't have to!The Eureka Moment: Why Note Investing Beat Being a Landlord. Tired of the tenant troubles and property headaches associated with traditional real estate, Brian found his calling in mortgage note investing. He explains how attending a seminar completely shifted his perspective, revealing a path to passive income and business building that aligned perfectly with his goals, without the ongoing demands of property management.Brian's Blueprint: Target Markets, Yields, and Performing Notes. Get the inside scoop on Brian's current note investing strategy. He focuses on acquiring performing notes with target yields of 12-15% and deal sizes typically ranging from $50,000 to $150,000.

He's proving that you don't need to be a seasoned guru to share valuable insights and build a community.The Power of Authenticity: Why "I Don't Know" is Your Best Asset. Brian and the host emphasize the incredible value of transparency and humility in the real estate world. Brian shares how wearing his "passive income" hat sparks conversations, and why being open about his learning process – even sharing mistakes like the $10K loss – builds far more credibility than pretending to know everything. He also highlights the importance of networking in ambitious cities like San Diego, where capital and connections abound.Brian Royster is a testament to the fact that you don't have to be a grey-haired guru to dive deep into real estate.

Natalie Cloutier is a French-Canadian real estate investor who, alongside her husband, has spent over a decade building a successful build-to-rent business in Canada. With a background in architectural technology, Natalie began her journey by constructing her first home at the age of 19 using a sweat-equity loan, transforming a family "secret" into a powerful investment model. Today, she and her husband have built 53 units from the ground up, acquired and renovated four additional properties, and automated their business to support long-term growth. Her approach centers on risk-aware development, ADU maximization, and creative strategies to unlock housing value. She is also the author of The Build to Rent Strategy and co-founder of The New Build Couple.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here.     Key Takeaways Why building your own home with sweat equity can kickstart your investing journey The build-rent-refinance-repeat model Natalie uses instead of traditional BRRRR How legislation like Bill 23 unlocked value via ADUs The risks to watch for when analyzing land deals Why burnout forced her to scale—and how hiring a team changed her business     Topics From Architecture School to First Build How Natalie and her husband started by building their own house at 19 The sweat-equity loan that replaced a traditional down payment Living through construction while house-hacking their basement unit Scaling with Confidence Transitioning from guided help to self-led builds Building nights and weekends while working 40-hour weeks How an employee learned their model and replicated it himself Why Build-to-Rent Made Sense Existing properties in Ontario didn't pencil out Build-to-rent as a better alternative to BRRRR for their market The shift from slow beginnings to full-time real estate Shifting Strategies Through Market Changes The effects of COVID, inflation, and interest rates Navigating legislative battles with municipalities Taking a break to reassess in the face of red tape Due Diligence in Development Natalie's master checklist before buying land Zoning, sewer, easements, internet access, and environmental tests The consequences of skipping steps (like a $30k surprise for internet) How ADUs Became a Game Changer Leveraging Ontario's Bill 23 to turn a duplex into a triplex Avoiding six-figure development fees by using ADU classifications Applying the ADU model to create sixplexes with cost savings    

Mat Sorensen sits down with Troy Eckard, founder and chairman of the board at Eckard Enterprises, for a clear look at how investors use self directed IRAs to buy mineral rights and participate in oil and gas cash flow. They break down the three lanes in this asset class, minerals, drilling, and midstream, and explain where each fits in a smart portfolio. You will hear why many IRA owners favor minerals for steady income and lower risk, when drilling can make sense with taxable dollars, and how to evaluate operators with real world due diligence that protects you from bad deals.Troy shares how technology and data have changed the game, what realistic returns look like, how depletion and cash flow work over time, and the red flags that signal inflated pricing or weak sponsors. The conversation also hits current market forces, service costs, and why discipline matters more than shiny tax write offs. This episode is perfect for IRA owners, high income professionals, and anyone exploring real assets beyond public energy stocks who want income, control, and clear rules of the road.Chapters: 0:06 - Meet Troy Eckert And The Goal0:34 - What Mineral Rights Actually Are2:14 - Three Ways To Invest In Oil And Gas4:18 - Risk Then And Now In Drilling5:25 - Taxes, Depletion, And IDC Basics7:41 - Why IRAs Fit Mineral Rights Best10:25 - How Eckerd Structures Direct Ownership12:06 - Diversification Across Operators And Units13:53 - Spotting Fraud And Overpricing16:08 - Don't Chase Deductions Over Deals18:03 - Market Reality: Drill Baby Drill20:45 - DUCs, Service Costs, And Timing23:00 - Who Should Invest Directly And When25:01 - Dollar Dynamics, Rates, And Liquidity27:20 - Due Diligence, Education, And Next Steps41:56 - Closing Notes And DisclaimersDirected IRA Homepage: https://directedira.com/ Directed IRA Explore (Linktree): https://linktr.ee/SelfDirectedIRA Book a Call: https://directedira.com/appointment/ Other:Mat Sorensen: https://matsorensen.com & https://linktr.ee/MatSorensen KKOS: https://kkoslawyers.comMain Street Business https://mainstreetbusiness.com

At the 2025 TRACE Forum, Kirk Foster, Assistant General Counsel and Director of Compliance at HII Mission Technologies, explores how organizations can use Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) alongside compliance to proactively address emerging risks. By leveraging ERM, Kirk discusses how companies can make data-driven decisions, increase efficiency, reduce redundancy, and support business growth.

If you're still pretending 60/40 will solve everything, this episode is your wake-up call. I brought back the Queen of Alts, Shana Orczyk Sissel, to rip through the reality of alternatives: what works, what doesn't, where the real yield is coming from, and the cost you actually pay for it—hint: liquidity, not magic. We get straight to it. No fluff. No sales pitch. Just the truth. We break down why alts are finally everywhere—regulatory changes, active ETFs, and the rise of interval funds—and why access is easier but the learning curve is still real. Shana explains the tradeoffs in plain English: higher income often means less liquidity, leverage multiplies both gains and pain, and “complex” doesn't automatically mean “risky.” Complexity just means do the work. This is a masterclass in due diligence. We walk through what to ask a manager, how to sniff out conflicts, why structure and third-party vendors matter, and how to judge a product beyond marketing sheets. We also hit the advisor problem: most fear is just lack of information. Your job is to learn what your clients don't have time to learn. Period. Who are alts for? Shana's take: everyone, but not every alt is for everyone. There's a spectrum—from Bitcoin and venture to sober, income-producing private credit. Your job is matching goals, risk, taxes, and liquidity. We close with a simple portfolio checklist so you can stop guessing and start allocating with intent.

Summary This episode of the Boss podcast features Dr. Jennifer Whittington sharing her experience with toxic work environments and how she navigated leaving such situations. The host, Dr. Amy Vertries, introduces the podcast as focusing on lessons not taught in residency for surgeons. Dr. Whittington discusses her first job search after residency, where she was geographically limited due to custody arrangements for her daughter. She admits she made a critical mistake by not hiring a contract lawyer to review her employment agreement, which later proved to be problematic. She emphasizes the importance of having legal counsel review contracts, even if it costs around $500, as it's worth the investment to identify potential issues. Dr. Whittington highlights several red flags she missed during her job search, particularly being prevented from speaking with the previous person who held the position. She advises that if an employer discourages contact with previous employees, it's a significant warning sign. She also stresses the importance of getting specific details in writing, such as call distribution, reimbursement, block time, and research time. The conversation then shifts to Dr. Whittington's experience leaving her toxic job. She explains how she carefully planned her exit, ensuring she had credentials at another hospital before resigning, as she anticipated retaliation. She maintained professionalism throughout the difficult two-month notice period, despite facing verbal abuse and humiliation. She shares how staff members showed their support by organizing a farewell party for her despite management's disapproval. Dr. Whittington then discusses her second job, which was a positive experience. She only left this position to care for her sister who was diagnosed with breast cancer. She explains how she took trauma call to pay off her substantial legal fees ($320,000) from her divorce and custody battle, which ultimately made her a better surgeon while helping her become debt-free. Throughout her journey, Dr. Whittington emphasizes the importance of building a support network or "village." When her initial support system fell apart during her divorce, she rebuilt it with colleagues, friends, and community members. She shares emotional stories of friends who supported her during financial hardship, including a friend who traveled to visit her and treated her to simple pleasures like pedicures and ice cream when she couldn't afford groceries. Dr. Whittington concludes by discussing her current position at a hospital where she provides care to underserved populations. She expresses her passion for ensuring that patients at safety-net hospitals receive the same standard of care as those at private hospitals. She also mentions her commitment to mentoring medical students, residents, and PhD students, showing them that they can have successful careers despite personal challenges. The episode ends with Dr. Whittington advocating for subsidized childcare for surgical trainees at a national level, noting that the stress of arranging and paying for childcare can prevent surgeons from focusing on becoming the best they can be professionally. Chapters Introduction to the Boss Podcast and Topic of Toxic Jobs ‎ 00:00:00 Dr. Amy Vertries introduces the podcast, explaining that it focuses on lessons not taught in residency for surgeons. She mentions that two of their most downloaded episodes deal with leaving toxic jobs, and introduces Dr. Jennifer Whittington who will share her experience with toxic work environments and how she navigated leaving such situations. Dr. Whittington's First Job Search and Contract Mistakes ‎ 00:01:13 Dr. Whittington discusses her first job search after residency, explaining she was geographically limited due to custody arrangements for her daughter. She admits she made a critical mistake by not hiring a contract lawyer to review her employment agreement, which later proved to be problematic. A lawyer who reviewed it years later told her "no one reasonable would have allowed you to sign this." She emphasizes the importance of having legal counsel review contracts, even if it costs around $500, as it's worth the investment to identify potential issues. Red Flags in Job Interviews and Importance of Due Diligence ‎ 00:02:36 Dr. Whittington highlights several red flags she missed during her job search, particularly being prevented from speaking with the previous person who held the position. She advises that if an employer discourages contact with previous employees, it's a significant warning sign. She also stresses the importance of getting specific details in writing, such as call distribution, reimbursement, block time, and research time to avoid being "used and abused." Identifying Toxic Workplace Environments ‎ 00:09:22 Dr. Whittington describes signs of a toxic workplace, including lack of respect, being condescended to in front of team members, and feeling uncomfortable with the standard of care provided. She shares her father's advice about being able to "look at yourself in the mirror at night" and feel good about what you did that day, noting that in her toxic job, she couldn't say that about the care being provided. Transitioning Out of a Toxic Job ‎ 00:12:33 Dr. Whittington explains how she carefully planned her exit from her toxic job, ensuring she had credentials at another hospital before resigning, as she anticipated retaliation. She discusses the documentation needed when changing jobs, including licensure verification, risk management documentation, case logs, and letters of recommendation. She emphasizes the importance of having allies who can help navigate this process. Maintaining Professionalism During Resignation ‎ 00:15:21 Dr. Whittington shares how she maintained professionalism during her difficult two-month notice period, despite facing verbal abuse and humiliation. Her mantra was "I am the consummate professional," which helped her not react negatively to poor treatment. She shares how staff members showed their support by organizing a farewell party for her despite management's disapproval. Second Job Experience and Family Emergency ‎ 00:18:03 Dr. Whittington discusses her second job, which was a positive experience. She only left this position to care for her sister who was diagnosed with breast cancer. She explains how the administration was supportive and even held her position as long as possible. She helped interview her replacement and assured them it was a good practice to join. Financial Challenges and Overcoming Debt ‎ 00:24:56 Dr. Whittington reveals how she took trauma call to pay off her substantial legal fees ($320,000) from her divorce and custody battle. This experience not only helped her become debt-free but also made her a better surgeon by improving her efficiency and thoughtfulness. She explains her fear of debt stemming from her lower-middle-class upbringing as a coal miner's daughter. Building a Support Network or "Village" ‎ 00:33:10 Dr. Whittington emphasizes the importance of building a support network or "village." When her initial support system fell apart during her divorce, she rebuilt it with colleagues, friends, and community members. She shares emotional stories of friends who supported her during financial hardship, including a friend who traveled to visit her and treated her to simple pleasures like pedicures and ice cream when she couldn't afford groceries. Current Position and Future Goals ‎ 00:35:26 Dr. Whittington discusses her current position at a hospital where she provides care to underserved populations. She expresses her passion for ensuring that patients at safety-net hospitals receive the same standard of care as those at private hospitals. She also mentions her commitment to mentoring medical students, residents, and PhD students, showing them that they can have successful careers despite personal challenges. Advocacy for Childcare Support in Medical Training ‎ 00:44:10 Dr. Whittington concludes by advocating for subsidized childcare for surgical trainees at a national level. She notes that the stress of arranging and paying for childcare can prevent surgeons from focusing on becoming the best they can be professionally, and expresses her passion for finding ways to address this issue through medical organizations. Action Items Dr. Whittington advised hiring a contract lawyer to review job offers, even if it costs around $500, as it's worth the investment to identify potential issues. ‎ 00:02:52 Dr. Whittington recommended always speaking to the person who previously held the position before accepting a job offer. ‎ 00:04:07 Dr. Whittington suggested going through offer letters point by point with the hiring person, discussing call distribution, reimbursement, block time, and expectations. ‎ 00:03:28 Dr. Whittington advised securing credentials at another hospital before resigning from a toxic job if retaliation is anticipated. ‎ 00:07:14 Dr. Whittington recommended preparing a resignation letter in advance when leaving a difficult workplace situation. ‎ 00:15:36 Dr. Whittington suggested maintaining professionalism when facing verbal abuse or humiliation in the workplace by using a personal mantra like "I am the consummate professional." ‎ 00:16:15 Dr. Whittington advised personally calling patients when transitioning from one practice to another to maintain the relationship and reduce guilt. ‎ 00:21:02 Dr. Whittington advocated for exploring ways to provide subsidized childcare for surgical trainees at a national level through medical organizations. ‎ 00:44:10

In this episode, Jim brings on Tom Dunkel, founder of Eagle Capital Investments, co-founder of U.S. Mortgage Resolution (11k+ loans transacted), real-estate investor, and author of The Wealth Builders Playbook. Tom left the “corporate penitentiary,” got bloodied in '08, then built durable wealth across distressed mortgage debt, self-storage, STRs, and a fund-of-funds platform.  They break down why “now” is always the right time if your horizon is long, how to own the paper when bricks are a pain, and how to evaluate deals with his SAFE method so you compound without blowing up. What You'll Learn Why headlines aren't a strategy: time horizon and cashflow beat “perfect timing” Distressed mortgage debt 101: how banks offload non-accrual loans—and how pros work them out The SAFE due-diligence method (Sponsor, Asset, Financials, Exit) you can apply to any alt deal Active vs passive: “who, not how” for busy owners who want diversification without a second job How tax advantages (depreciation, cost seg) and steady cashflow protect high earners Action Steps 1. Map Your Horizon & Cashflow Decide your hold period (5–10+ years) and set a monthly cashflow target that makes you work-optional. 2. Run SAFE on Your Next Deal Vet the Sponsor first, then Asset, Financials, and Exit. If any letter fails, pass and keep your powder dry. 3. Choose Your Lane Active: commit to learning, mistakes, and reps. Passive: piggyback a proven operator's network (fund-of-funds, co-GP) to diversify now.

Welcome to Go Gaddis Real Estate Radio. I'm Cleve Gaddis—here to make real estate clear, simple, and worry-free. In this episode, we're continuing our deep dive into the Georgia Association of REALTORS® (GAR) Purchase & Sale Agreement, one of the most important documents in any home transaction. Whether you're buying or selling, understanding what happens after the offer is accepted can save you from costly mistakes. We'll cover: What the due diligence period is and what buyers can (and can't) do during it. How inspection rights, repair requests, and contract termination work under the GAR agreement. What appraisal contingencies are—and how they protect both buyers and sellers. The other key contingencies you should know before closing. How the financing contingency works and what happens if a buyer can't secure a loan. The special protections built in for cash buyers and those using VA, FHA, or USDA loans. Plus, I'll share details about our Upside program, which helps buyers and sellers navigate every market with total confidence. Have a question or want to share feedback?

Blake sits down with Mary Delaney, CEO of Karbon, and Kenji Kuramoto, co-founder of Acuity, to explore how standardizing workflows can unlock growth without sacrificing the artistry of advisory work. They discuss Karbon's acquisition of Aider, the power of time studies to identify automation opportunities, and why getting senior advisors to embrace process requires framing workflow as empowerment rather than micromanagement. Kenji shares lessons from building Acuity's advisory practice and why workflow due diligence became critical during their 14-firm merger with Sorren.Chapters(01:14) - Introducing the Guests: Mary Delaney and Kenji Kuramoto (01:31) - Big News: Carbon's Acquisition of ER (02:41) - Defining Workflow Revolution in Small Firms (04:35) - Kenji's Journey: From Big Four to Acuity (07:03) - Challenges in Building Advisory Workflows (08:59) - Empowering Teams Through Workflow (17:46) - The Importance of Time Studies (19:14) - Kenji's Hands-On Approach to Workflow (25:16) - The Role of Workflow in Mergers and Acquisitions (28:08) - AI and the Future of Workflow in Accounting (30:39) - Conclusion and Final Thoughts Sign up to get free CPE for listening to this podcasthttps://earmarkcpe.comhttps://earmark.app/Download the Earmark CPE App Apple: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/earmark-cpe/id1562599728Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.earmarkcpe.appConnect with Our Guests:Mary DelaneyLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marywdelaney/Learn more about KarbonOfficial website: http://karbonhq.comKenji KuramotoLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kenjikuramoto/Learn more about AcuityOfficial website: https://acuity.coConnect with Blake Oliver, CPALinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/blaketoliverTwitter: https://twitter.com/blaketoliver/

By Adam Turteltaub Why? Why are you asking that? Do you really need to know it? Is it going to tell you something you need to know? Is it a question that anyone could even answer? All of these are questions to ask yourselves and colleagues when they propose adding an item to your due diligence questionnaire. As Kristy Grant-Hart (LinkedIn), author, speaker and Head of Advisory at Spark Compliance, which is now owned by Diligent, explains, too often due diligence questionnaires are filled with questions that are unnecessary at best and counterproductive at worst.  They are born out a desire to cover all the bases not necessarily get you just the information you need. Instead of throwing in everything including the kitchen sink, it's far better to take, as elsewhere, a risk-based approach.  Work directly with those who own the risk review.  And, if the response doesn't matter, don't ask the question. Listen in to learn more about how to create a due diligence questionnaire that gets the answers you need, and not the ones you don't.

If you're thinking about selling your online business, there's one part of the process that can make or break your deal: due diligence. Many sellers underestimate how important it is, and how much control they actually have over the process. In this week's podcast episode, Greg sits down with Ahmed Raza, founder of Rapid Diligence, to unpack the realities of due diligence and how sellers can prepare to maximize their exit. Ahmed starts by breaking down what due diligence really is and the steps sellers should take long before they go to market. He explains which diligence requests sellers can push back on, and the most common due diligence myths and misconceptions. Ahmed shares how buyer habits have evolved over the past few years and how, in some cases, due diligence can actually help sellers negotiate a higher sale price. We also dive into due diligence success rates, negotiation strategies when diligence turns tricky, and the typical timeline sellers should expect as their business works its way through the due diligence process. If you're planning an exit, this episode will help you avoid costly surprises, protect your leverage, and position your business for a smoother, more profitable sale.
