In this episode of Yoga-ish, we share our funniest, weirdest, and most heartfelt memories from our early years of practice: • Renting rooms in funky parts of town with circus performers as neighbors • The original paper-thin blue and green mats that never got cleaned • Heavy wooden props that could double as furniture • Our first teachers — from deeply traditional to delightfully eccentric • How yoga felt before it became mainstream, and what's changed (for better and worse)Whether you started in the 70s, 90s, or just last week, this is a love letter to yoga's evolution — and a celebration of its wonderfully weird past.

Welcome back to the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast.Today's episode dives into the evolution of infrastructure investing with the leading scaled specialist firm in infrastructure.We sat down in Stonepeak's Hudson Yards office with the firm's Co-President Luke Taylor to discuss the inner workings of the infrastructure investing world and unpack the story of how Stonepeak's rapid ascent has seen the firm climb to $76.3B in AUM in 14 short years.Luke brings a wealth of experience to the infrastructure investing world. He is Co-President of Stonepeak and a member of all of the firm's investment committees. He's been investing in infrastructure for over 20 years, joining Stonepeak from infrastructure investing pioneer Macquarie Capital.Luke and I had a fascinating and thought-provoking discussion about infrastructure investing and why it's becoming an increasingly important part of the private capital ecosystem. We covered:How Luke went from growing up on a sheep farm to investing in infrastructure in New York.What Macquarie taught him about how to approach infrastructure investing.Why he took the entrepreneurial leap to build Stonepeak and join Chairman, CEO, and Co-Founder Mike Dorrell from the firm's earliest days.Why infrastructure investing is more than toll roads, airports, and bridges.How there are elements of a private equity approach to investing in, building, and operating infrastructure assets.Where infrastructure fits in an investors' portfolio.Why individual investors should consider exposure to infrastructure assets.Has infrastructure proved itself through an inflation cycle?Why scale matters in infrastructure investing.How Stonepeak identified investing in data centers early on and well before the data center boom began.What type of demeanor and mindset makes for a successful infrastructure investor.Thanks Luke for coming on the show to share your expertise, wisdom, and passion for infrastructure investing.A word from AGM podcast sponsor, Ultimus Fund SolutionsThis episode of Alt Goes Mainstream is brought to you by Ultimus Fund Solutions, a leading full-service fund administrator for asset managers in private and public markets.

3.  Liftoff: Elon Musk and the Desperate Early Days that Launched SpaceX by Eric Berger, chronicles the turbulent and often precarious genesis of Elon Musk's ambitious rocket company, SpaceX. The narrative begins in March 2006 on Omelek Island, part of the Marshall Islands, where SpaceX prepared for the inaugural flight of its Falcon 1 rocket. Musk, having conceived the idea in 2001 to disrupt the space industry, founded SpaceX in 2002 despite being "laughed out of the room" by experts. He self-educated in rocketry and committed a significant portion of his fortune to the venture, pioneering a vertically integrated approach to manufacturing, building components like the Merlin engine in-house to reduce costs and accelerate development. The first three Falcon 1 launches were failures, each providing critical, hard-won lessons: 1. Launch 1 (March 2006): The Merlin engine ignited, but a corroded bolt, exacerbated by the humid tropical environment, caused a fuel leak and an engine fire, leading the rocket to crash back onto Omelek Island just 30 seconds after liftoff. Musk's philosophy that "failure is an option" guided the immediate post-crash investigation to collect debris and pinpoint the cause. 2. Launch 2 (March 2007): Despite the first stage working perfectly, the second stage, lacking "slosh baffles" (omitted based on computer models to save weight), spun out of control due to fuel sloshing. While it reached space (above 100 km), it failed to achieve a stable orbit, meaning SpaceX was not yet considered a "real rocket company" in the industry. This failure popularized the SpaceX proverb, "always go to 11". 3. Launch 3 (August 2008): Carrying multiple customer payloads, including the ashes of Star Trek's Scotty, this launch again saw a successful first stage. However, an unexpected relight of the first stage engine after separation caused it to bump and knock the second stage off course, killing the mission. This was a profound setback, as Musk had budgeted for only three flights, and the global economy was simultaneously collapsing. With the company nearly out of money and the world in a severe recession, Musk gathered his team, who expected him to announce closure. Instead, he declared they would make one more attempt with the remaining rocket parts, demanding it be ready in six weeks, though six months would have been more realistic. This fourth rocket's journey was not without its own drama: during transport in an Air Force C-17, the first stage imploded due to a pressure differential (SpaceX had used an outdated manual for the aircraft's pressurization). A young engineer, Zack Dunn, heroically crawled inside the crumpling rocket during descent to manually open valves, saving it from destruction. After rapid repairs, the fourth Falcon 1 launched in late September 2008. This time, it achieved orbit, carrying a dummy payload named "Rats". The team's jubilation, screaming "Orbit, orbit" at each other, marked a pivotal moment that Berger describes as "the end of the beginning" for SpaceX. This success, amidst immense technical hurdles, financial desperation, and a global economic crisis, underscored Musk's relentless determination, vertical integration strategy, and acceptance of failure as a learning tool. 1957

Cameron Steele joins us for Chapter 375! Cam has lived every facet of the action sports life — from growing up watching his dad race trucks, to racing motocross in his youth, freeriding, and riding in the early days of Freestyle Motocross. He went on to land a commentating gig, building an incredible career in action sports, from calling some of the biggest X Games moments — like Travis Pastrana's double backflip — to becoming a voice on ESPN and covering legendary off-road events like the Baja 1000. But Cam hasn't just commentated at Baja — he's raced it numerous times on both two and four wheels, and still competes today in his truck, racing through the deserts of Mexico. What makes Cameron stand out is how he carries himself and gives back, channeling the positive energy from off-road racing into sharing the stoke with others, supporting communities, and helping those less fortunate.Cam is a stand-up guy, and we're stoked to finally have him on the podcast — this one was a long time coming.

What do Benjamin Franklin, Eleanor Roosevelt, Paul Revere, and John-Boy Walton all share in common? They grew up in big families—and their stories suggest that large households can shape remarkable leaders and change the course of history. In this episode, we reflect on history, literature, and lived experience to ask whether strong, bustling families offer something our society is missing today. Listeners are invited into two timeless family stories: The Waltons, inspired by Earl Hamner Jr.'s Depression-era childhood, and Cheaper by the Dozen, the laugh-out-loud memoir of the Gilbreth clan. Both celebrate the chaos, cooperation, and love that make families—whether by blood or by choice—the foundation of resilience and joy. This episode is a tribute to the way family life, in all its forms, teaches tolerance and patience, shapes leaders, builds nations, and forges cherished relationships that are far more valuable than material success.SOURCES: My Parents Have 11 Children.

Guest: Scott Leese — Fractional CRO, 12 unicorns, 13 exits, six-time sales leader, five-time founder, three-time author, major LinkedIn community builder, newsletter publisher, and creator of multiple businesses. Early Days & First Hustles Grew up in a non-entrepreneurial household; sold baseball cards as a kid, had entrepreneurial “side hustles” in college. Spent much of his 20s battling and recovering from a life-threatening illness. Four years hospitalized, nine surgeries, struggled with painkiller addiction, read hundreds of books — which planted the seeds for future business curiosity. How He Got Into Sales & Startups First tech sales job at 27, encouraged by a friend who noticed Scott's resilience, competitiveness, and leadership. Sales led to VP/CRO roles at high-growth startups, where Scott built and scaled revenue teams, eventually leading to multiple exits and unicorn valuations. Lessons on Sales as a Career Sales is a pure meritocracy: “If you produce, you get paid. If you don't, you're cut — just like athletics.” Outproducing others shouldn't just lead to the same pay — sales rewards top performers more than most fields. Why Just Being a High-Paid Employee Isn't Enough Even top execs at successful startups rarely see transformational wealth (example: after a $500M+ exit, the founder gets $20M+, a C-suite leader gets $500K). True wealth comes from moving from “employed” to “owner” — writing books, building communities, conferences, consulting, investing in real estate, launching multiple income streams. The Coming Disruption & Opportunity from AI The rise of AI means most entry-level sales/tech/white-collar jobs will disappear or change radically. The era of corporate security is ending; individuals must think entrepreneurially, diversify income, own their brand, and quickly adapt. Future sales: Only high-level, complex, relationship-driven roles will survive; all “boiler room”/transactional sales will be automated or handled by agents. As commerce increasingly digitizes, the most acute personal/professional needs will be (1) “inner work” (purpose, mental/spiritual health) and (2) experiences/community. Optimism & The New Wave Exponential growth in personalized medicine & health/longevity businesses (AI-powered diagnostics, genetic-driven treatment, biohacking). Massive new opportunities for anything that promotes genuine human connection or personal growth (retreats, mastermind events, experiential learning, spiritual/purpose-driven work). In an automated world, experiences and community will be more valuable (and defensible) than ever. Scott's Personal Projects & Where to Connect https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottleese/

Jon Summers is the Motoring Historian. He was a company car thrashing technology sales rep that turned into a fairly inept sports bike rider. On his show he gets together with various co-hosts to talk about new and old cars, driving, motorbikes, motor racing, motoring travel. In this episode Jon recalls his mixed emotions about Ozzy Osbourne and the glam rock scene of the 1980s, his nostalgic relationships with certain cars, including a specific Ford Capri he regretted not purchasing, and his early jobs selling aerial photographs door-to-door. He delves into his appreciation for bands like Black Sabbath and discusses heavy metal's evolution. Shifting topics, he talks about the future of major car manufacturers, particularly expressing skepticism regarding Nissan's survival amid increasing competition from Chinese car makers and the rise of electric vehicles. He contrasts Nissan's approach with Toyota and Honda's strategic moves, lamenting a potential loss in Japanese automotive creativity. ==================== 00:00 Tribute to Ozzy Osbourne 01:44 Early Days with Sabbath 03:00 The Blue Ford Cortina Incident 04:39 The Red Ford Capri Temptation 06:57 Bugatti Museum Visit 08:00 Regret Over the Capri 08:38 Nissan's Uncertain Future 11:12 Nissan's Legacy in the Car World 15:05 Conclusion and Final Thoughts ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== The Motoring Podcast Network : Years of racing, wrenching and Motorsports experience brings together a top notch collection of knowledge, stories and information. #everyonehasastory #gtmbreakfix - motoringpodcast.net More Information: https://www.motoringpodcast.net/ Become a VIP at: https://www.patreon.com/gtmotorsports Online Magazine: https://www.gtmotorsports.org/ Copyright Jon Summers, The Motoring Historian.

Nick Gojcaj grew up in Queens dreaming of becoming an NYPD cop, but after that didn't work out, he spent 20 years in the corporate world before making a drastic career change in his 40s—joining Rikers Island as a corrections officer. For three years he worked inside one of America's most notorious jails, dealing with chaos, violence, and the daily dangers of being a prison guard, until a confrontation with inmates left him permanently disabled. Instead of protecting him, Rikers illegally terminated his job, sparking a legal battle that he's still fighting today. In this episode, Nick opens up about his journey from the academy to life on the inside, the shocking realities of working at Rikers, and how he's now exposing the system that betrayed him. #RikersIsland #PrisonGuard #CorrectionsOfficer #NYCPrisons #RikersStories #PrisonLife #LawEnforcement #CorruptionExposed Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Presented by Tyson 2.0 & Wooooo Energy: https://tyson20.com/ https://woooooenergy.com/ Use code LOCKEDIN for 20% OFF Wooooo Energy Buy Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop Timestamps: 00:00 Prison Realities and Riker's Introduction 00:19 Nick's Unusual Career Path 01:51 Favorite Episodes and Influential People 03:21 Union Perks, Disability, and Department Politics 04:23 Growing Up: Family and Childhood Influences 05:21 School Trouble and Early Aspirations 06:12 Drinking, Gambling, and Avoiding Trouble 08:09 Crime, Arrests, and a Flawed System 09:49 Stable Home vs. Turbulent Friends 10:57 From College Hopes to Law Enforcement Dreams 13:09 College Life and NYPD Rejection 14:35 Corporate World: Two Decades Lost 16:08 Career Pivot: Joining Corrections at 44 17:43 Correctional Academy: Training Realities 20:08 Academy vs. Real World at Rikers 22:47 Early Days on the Job & Learning from Inmates 26:03 Systemic Issues: Contraband, Corruption, and Challenges 29:39 Schedules, Overtime, and Hidden Job Hazards 33:09 Facing Reality: Dangerous Shifts, Staff Politics 36:14 Respect, Dignity, and Handling Inmates 39:41 Violence, Use of Force, and Officer Dilemmas 43:00 The Incident and Long-Term Injury 47:34 Aftermath: Desk Duty, Recovery, and Abrupt Firing 53:46 Legal Fight and Alleged Retaliation 58:39 Department Corruption and Favoritism 01:02:02 Lawsuit, Motivation, and Moving Forward 01:06:10 Advice, Support, and Closing Thoughts Powered by: Just Media House : https://www.justmediahouse.com/ Creative direction, design, assets, support by FWRD: https://www.fwrd.co Learn more about your ad choices.

 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.  For the full show notes, transcript, and links to the best content to learn more, check out the episode page here. —- Business Breakdowns is a property of Colossus, LLC.

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.
