This is Matt Reustle. Today, we are breaking down the real estate broker Compass. Compass itself is a fascinating business and historically a controversial stock. It was founded in 2012 by Robert Reffkin and has scaled in that short period of time to become the largest real estate brokerage in the United States. Geoff Collette, founder of Aeon Capital Partners, is back as a guest. After his Breakdown on Goosehead, we thought it was fitting to cover another flavor of broker. Geoff and I cover the history, some of Compass's early pivots, and the different critiques of the company. There is a ton of interesting stuff around Compass today. We could see a broker potentially emerge from being historically a commodity business to something more powerful. Please enjoy this Breakdown of Compass.

Are you building a sales org from scratch? Or rebuilding one in the middle of an AI boom? If so, this episode is your field guide. CJ sits down with Ethan Schechter, SVP of Global Sales and Customer Success at Qodo (and the guy who helped take Snyk from $0 to $100M+ in revenue), to talk about the wild days of early-stage sales leadership. Ethan shares how he navigates “basecamp” moments and the “smile” and “cry” days of year one. He explains his approach to hiring for a new org, building internal trust while over-communicating, designing incentive structures for the early days, trading dollars for speed through discounting, and staying competitive in the fast-changing era of AI.

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, host Dr. Ekta sits down with Sarah Chung Park—CEO of Landing International and the visionary behind K-Beauty World—for a behind-the-scenes look at how K-beauty is evolving from trend to global benchmark. What began as quirky packaging and novelty ingredients has matured into an innovation-driven category focused on real efficacy, formulation transparency, and cultural inclusivity. Sarah shares how she went from building a matchmaking platform for emerging beauty brands to launching over 180 K-beauty lines into U.S. retail—and how that journey reshaped her understanding of skin, culture, and global beauty standards.K-Beauty World has launchd at Ulta Beauty, a curated ecosystem that blends education, community, and inclusive storytelling. From pushing Korean brands to expand shade ranges for Western consumers to reframing the conversation around “glass skin,” Sarah is raising the bar for what modern beauty should look like—accessible, results-driven, and deeply human. She also touches on how today's ingredient-literate consumers are demanding more from formulations, and why K-beauty's pipeline of skin science is driving a broader industry shift.This episode offers more than a look into a beauty category—it's a conversation about raising standards, bridging cultures, and reimagining what skincare can be when powered by empathy and innovation.Tune in to hear how Sarah Chung Park is redefining the future of beauty—one brand, one shade, and one thoughtful launch at a time.To learn more about Sarah Chung Park visit her website and social media.

In late 1978, Taiwan faced one of its most impactful challenges, when Washington announced plans to switch recognition to Beijing. Fears rose over Taiwan potentially losing one of its strongest allies. Members of the international community also worried about many other practical concerns, such as the continuation of English-language radio in Taiwan, and international schooling for their children. American lawyer Rob Parker played an important role in helping Taiwan through this difficult time, including actively lobbying for passage of the Taiwan Relations Act, establishing International Community Radio Taipei (ICRT), and Taipei American School. ICRT's Tim Berge talks to Parker about his new book, "Derecognition", which gives a first hand look at this challenging time in history.

Welcome back to the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast.Today's conversation brings us beachside, featuring a live podcast from Soho Beach House in Miami with EQT Partner, Head of Private Wealth Americas Peter Aliprantis.With the backdrop of the beach behind us and the wealth community in the audience, Peter and I discussed the nuances of the wealth channel and how Peter's experience working with wealth is brought to bear as he brings EQT's brand and capabilities to the Americas wealth channel.Peter brings a wealth of knowledge to the private wealth solutions world, garnering over 25 years of experience in the space.

Listen in — we hope you enjoy.You can also read a recent AGM Op-Ed by Peter here. Many of the themes that Peter discussed in our conversation, particularly around evergreen funds and why model portfolios are the next big innovation in private markets, were covered in his Op-Ed.A word from AGM podcast sponsor, Juniper SquareWhen was the last time things were easy for GPs?Fundraising remains challenging, providing liquidity to investors is even harder—and broadly speaking, most GPs are underwater operationally.It's not about to get easier, either. Especially for managers vying for capital from the wealth channel. Sure, there's increased demand from HNW and UNHW investors to gain private markets exposure…but managing their expectations for the investing experience is a whole different ballgame.Reams of paper and a new KYC process every single time they subscribe to a fund? Brutal.But what if committing capital to private equity, venture, and real estate funds was digital and seamless for investors — and scalable to manage for GPs?Meet Juniper Square, the fund operations partner to over 2,000 private markets GPs worldwide.Juniper Square gives GPs the connected software, data, and fund administration services needed for modern private markets.

In the 95th episode of the WGI Unleashed podcast, we're thrilled to introduce you to Darcy Nuffer, PLA, a Studio Manager on our Landscape Architecture team in Austin, Texas! Join us as hosts Dan and Katie sit down with Darcy for a lively and thoughtful conversation that spans continents, career pivots, and sustainable design. From her roots in Michigan to her leadership in one of WGI's most creative practices, Darcy's story is anything but ordinary…. and it's packed with surprises you won't want to miss. Early Days of Development Growing up near Lake Michigan, Darcy spent her youth immersed in nature. Volleyball games, water skiing, campfires, and long summer days at her family's cabin instilled in her a deep appreciation for the great outdoors. This early connection with nature became a foundation for what would soon become her future career, despite landscape architecture not being her initial calling. Darcy's first academic pursuit came in the form of writing. She dreamed of becoming a novelist, even moving to London after college on a student work visa to soak in new experiences that would fuel her creative ambitions. But it was there, while exploring Europe's rich urban landscapes, that Darcy's fascination with urban communities and the built environment began to take root. Path Through Design and Sustainability After relocating to Austin, Darcy worked for the City of Austin's Watershed Protection Department, where she met a landscape architect who inspired her career shift. Intrigued by the blend of ecology, design, and community, Darcy pursued a graduate degree in landscape architecture, becoming part of the inaugural class of the University of Texas at Austin's newly established program. From there, her journey took her to San Francisco, back to Austin, through the 2008 financial crisis, and even into work on the Sustainable Sites Initiative at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center. Eventually, she returned to the City of Austin, stepping into the very role once held by the mentor who first introduced her to the industry that she had grown to love. Leading with Purpose at WGI Today, Darcy brings all of that experience and passion to WGI. As a Studio Manager, she plays a critical role in growing the firm's public landscape architecture practice, particularly through projects with the City of San Antonio. From park master planning to sustainable green infrastructure, Darcy leads with a strong commitment to environmental stewardship and design excellence. She also plays a key role as a frequent collaborator within WGI's multidisciplinary efforts, adding landscape architecture insights to a wide range of public and private projects that enhance Civil Engineering, Buildings, and Land Development service offerings…. to name a few. But she doesn't stop there – Darcy is also expanding WGI's sustainability offerings, including LEED and Sites certifications, and routinely consults with clients on how to integrate conservation and resilience into the built environment. A Love for Sketching, Gardening, and Storytelling When she's not managing major projects or mentoring fellow designers, Darcy can be found tending to her garden, working on her hand-built accessory dwelling unit in Austin, or sketching the urban landscape during WGI's lunchtime “sketch crawls.” A self-proclaimed poetry lover and former published poet in a local Austin publication, Darcy still dreams of writing a book one day, and she even has a few ideas tucked away…. And did we mention she's a trained blacksmith? That's right – Darcy took classes at Austin Community College and still has a collection of hammers she forged herself. Why WGI? Darcy highlights the diversity of work, supportive team culture, and the opportunity to wear many hats as her favorite parts of being at WGI. “No two projects are the same,” she shares, “and I love collaborating across disciplines to solve new challenges every day.” Tune In This episode is packed with thoughtful reflections, unexpected talents, and creative inspiration – from London pubs to leading sustainable park development across Texas and a whole lot more.

With his company “PRO MOTION” celebrating 42 years at the forefront of record promotion, Brad reflects on the moments that defined his journey. Brad opens up about his early DJ days, sharing how his father's advice shaped his outlook (4:42), and how substance use became a short-lived fix for performance anxiety (08:33).

Why Hank Parker Walked Away From Fishing Fame | 100% Wild Podcast Ep. 431 Legendary angler and TV host Hank Parker joins Matt and Tim on this week's 100% Wild Podcast, powered by DeerCast.

The guys talk about public perception around hunting (including the blowback from Matt's recent bear harvest), how Ray Scott turned largemouth bass into America's favorite sportfish, and the early days of outdoor television when cameras were the size of briefcases. Hank shares untold stories from the Earnhardt docu-series, reveals what Dale Sr. was really like behind the wheel and in the woods, and explains why he walked away from the peak of fishing fame to be a better dad. This episode is packed with laughs, wisdom, and emotional moments as Hank recounts the fall that nearly ended his hunting days—and how faith, family, and safety gear helped him get back on his feet.
