Today, I'm speaking with David McKnight. David is a best-selling author, world-renowned tax strategist, and financial educator who challenges some of the most popular (and misleading) retirement gurus and influencers in the financial advice space. He's also a great friend, and beloved guest on the show and I'm excited to welcome him back for a 3rd time on the podcast. David is well known as the author of The Power of Zero which was made into a full-length documentary film. In his latest book, The Guru Gap, he exposes why one-size-fits-all financial guidance from so-called experts often leaves retirees underprepared and overexposed to risk. We discussed the psychological appeal of "guru" advice and how to identify when those blanket statements—like "annuities are bad" or "the 4% rule always works,"—do more harm than good. One of the things that I love about David is that he shares math-based insights into retirement income planning. We're talking about the true cost of longevity risk, and why annuities can often create more liquidity and peace of mind than traditional withdrawal strategies. David also shares his perspective on the newly extended tax cuts, how to time Roth conversions in light of the One Big Beautiful Bill, and the three critical questions everyone needs to answer before moving money from tax-deferred to tax-free accounts. Whether you're skeptical about annuities, curious about LIRPs, or confused by conflicting advice online, this episode will help you cut through the noise and design a retirement plan that's truly tailored to you—not to the masses.

Step 2: Text the word BOOK to 888-599-4491, and we'll send you a link to claim your free copy! In this podcast interview, you'll learn: Why "one-size-fits-all" financial advice can be dangerous in retirement planning. The psychological reason Americans follow gurus—and how it can derail your goals. The real math behind annuities, the 4% rule, and the illusion of liquidity. How life insurance can serve as a volatility buffer and long-term care resource. The truth about Roth conversions and the importance of your "drop-dead date." What the new One Big Beautiful Bill means for future tax rates. Why simplicity—not complexity—is the hallmark of truly successful investors. Show Notes: HowardBailey.com/532

She's Just Getting Started - Building a business you truly love!
Most new business owners assume the answer to slow growth is more hours. But more time doesn't always mean more progress - it often means more burnout, busywork, and diminishing returns. In this episode, we'll talk about how to decide how much time you really need to grow your business, how to focus on the right work, and how to build success that fits your life - not the other way around.
What if your concrete mix could cut a data center's power bill by 15%? In this episode of the Concrete Logic Podcast, host Seth Tandett talks with Frank Stankunas Sr., Frank Stankunas Jr., and James Cordeiro from Silverback Concrete about a concept most engineers haven't thought about—thermal resistivity in concrete. They explain how low rho concrete helps data centers shed heat faster, take pressure off the grid, and extend the life of buried electrical infrastructure. You'll hear how they're testing mixes that hit rho values in the 20s, why quality control is everything, and why engineers need to stop “copying and pasting” specs from old jobs. By the end, you'll see why thermal resistivity may be the next big efficiency play in the world's fastest-growing utility - data. What You'll Learn • What thermal resistivity (rho) actually measures in concrete. • How low rho concrete reduces power bills and protects the grid. • Why inconsistent mixes can cause “thermal runaway” in cables. • How soil type and aggregate selection affect heat dissipation. • What testing and verification look like for low rho concrete. • Why some engineers are still unaware of rho's importance. • How Silverback's “Game Changer” mix is redefining performance. • What collaboration between engineers and contractors could unlock next.

(0:41:56) Bonds, volatility, and inflation risk—why "safe" assets aren't risk-free. (0:44:41) Building your mix: matching volatility tolerance with long-term goals.

In this episode of Pearls On, Gloves Off, Mary O'Carroll sits down with John LaBarre, General Counsel of Harvey. From Google to Snowflake and now a leader in legal AI, John's career reflects the tech world's evolution. Together, they dig into the pivotal moment we're living through — when generative AI enters the legal profession not as a futuristic idea but as a productivity‑enhancer in real time. In this episode: Why legal is ripe for AI: He explains how the legal profession acts as a "low‑hanging fruit" for generative AI, given its massive volumes of unstructured data and repetitive tasks. Re‑learning technology: Generative AI isn't like a perfect calculator. John argues lawyers must shift from expecting "the correct answer" to co‑working with predictive tools: prompting them, reviewing them, validating them. Measuring ROI: From the in‑house perspective, it's about doing more with the same budget. John shares examples where what used to be a 30–40 hour review became a 2–3 hour job thanks to AI. Law firms, adoption & the billable hour paradox: The conversation pivots to law firms — how they adopt AI, the challenges of traditional measurement (billable hours), and why this moment might represent another nail in that coffin. What's next: They explore the next three‑to‑five‑year horizon — what would make AI truly transformative, what still needs to happen, and why "agents" handling NDAs or contract workflows aren't far off. If you're involved in legal operations, in‑house counsel, or law firm innovation, this episode offers actionable insight into how legal work is changing—and what you should be doing right now to keep up.

Are you spending more on ads but getting less in return? You're not alone. In this eye-opening conversation, Preston Rutherford, co-founder of Chubbies (which achieved a nine-figure exit and continues to see 8 years of consecutive growth), reveals why most modern brands are stuck in what he calls "the performance trap." Preston breaks down the crucial 95-5 rule—the reality that 95% of your audience isn't actively shopping at any given time—and explains why optimizing only for immediate conversions is slowly eroding your brand. He shares the hard-earned lessons from Chubbies' journey, including their midlife crisis moment when efficiency metrics looked great but the business fundamentals were deteriorating. This isn't about choosing between brand and performance—it's about finding the right balance to build sustainable, profitable growth.

Can a single set actually make your muscles grow? Amy Hudson and Dr. James Fisher tackle a listener's question: Can you really get results from a single set of exercises for a muscle group? They break down the science behind single versus multiple sets and explain why effort matters more than counting reps. Tune in to discover how to train smarter, save time, and still see real strength gains. Amy kicks things off with the big question: can you really do just one set and still get the benefits of strength training? Dr. Fisher's answer—yes, you absolutely can. That one set, if pushed with real effort, is enough to trigger results. Amy highlights a common training misconception. We've all been told that “more is better.” But the science shows that one quality set can be just as powerful as three. Dr. Fisher breaks down research comparisons of single-set versus multiple-set training. According to Dr. Fisher, effort is the key. A single set pushed to a high enough degree of effort matches the benefit of multiple sets. It's intensity, not quantity, that makes the difference. Amy points out the obvious when you train to failure. If your muscles literally cannot do another rep, what's the point of extra sets? You've already achieved the adaptation you came for. Dr. Fisher explains why stimulus matters more than volume. It's the challenge to the muscle that drives change, not the endless repetition. With this approach, you can finish a workout in 20 to 30 minutes. Dr. Fisher reframes exercise volume. It's not just sets of one exercise, it's total sets across the muscle group. Every compound and isolation move adds to the tally, whether you realize it or not. For Amy, working with a personal trainer means you don't have to guess how much volume is enough. They guide you to push just the right amount in each set, so one set can be enough if done correctly. Dr. Fisher highlights the time trap of traditional training. Add up three sets for every exercise, plus two-minute rests, and you're suddenly in the gym for two hours. Amy highlights why people get confused about volume. Reps and sets are easy to measure. Effort isn't—and that's why so many default to doing “more” instead of doing “enough.” Dr. Fisher shares the biggest benefit of working with a certified coach--you hit the right intensity in every session. Instead of mindlessly adding sets, they make sure the effort in each set actually counts toward growth. Dr. Fisher explains how technology is changing the game. With exerbotics machines, effort can be measured in real time. That makes it easier to quantify progress and what actually drives results. Dr. Fisher reframes training as a dosage. The right dosage sparks adaptation. More isn't better—it's just wasted effort if the goal has already been achieved. According to Dr. Fisher, higher volume can sometimes deliver slightly bigger short-term gains. But those differences are small, hard to measure, and fade with time. Over six months to a year, single and multiple sets lead to the same results. For Amy, if one set gets you the same outcome in a quarter of the time, why spend hours chasing more? Less time lifting means more time living. Dr. Fisher shares a fascinating example from his PhD student's research. Even elite-level powerlifters—athletes pushing squat, bench, and deadlift—got stronger with a single set once a week. If that works at the highest level, it's more than enough for the rest of us.

Dharmesh Sheth is joined by Jonathan Liew, Martin Samuel and Dan Kilpatrick to reflect on the weekend's sporting action.We begin with Forest's sacking of Ange Postecoglou. Jonathan refers to his tenure as a disaster from start to finish, but does Ange have a future in the Premier League?Next, we look to Liverpool v Manchester United. Jonathan believes a direct approach, using longballs, is the best method to expose Liverpool's defensive frailties and Dan suggests we're seeing a transition in Slot's side that was expected last season.We then turn to the title race and Arsenal's away win at Craven Cottage; Jonathan is confident that Arsenal win the title this season, calling the set-piece winning goal “brutally efficient” and Martin compares this Arsenal to George Graham's league-winning side.We also look at Erling Haaland's incredible goalscoring record, with two goals in five minutes against Everton, and ask the question whether Manchester City are a little too reliant on the outstanding Norwegian this season?Finally, we look at talk of a “Beckham Bid” for Manchester United. Approached by UAE billionaires, David Beckham may be the face of a £5billion takeover bid. And whilst comparing both Man United and Liverpool's models, we ask which is the bigger club?Running Order:3mins – Ange Sacked24mins – Liverpool v Man Utd39mins – Title Race Chat46mins – Haaland's Goals52mins – Man United Beckham Bid

Charting the Future of AI Storage Infrastructure In this episode, Solidigm Director of Strategic Planning Brian Jacobosky guides listeners through a tech-forward conversation on how storage infrastructure is helping redefine the AI-era data center. The discussion frames storage as more than just a cost factor; it's also a strategic building block for performance, efficiency, and savings. Storage Moves to the Center of AI Data Infrastructure Jacobosky explains how, in the AI-driven era, storage is being elevated from a forgotten metric like “dollars per gigabyte” to a core priority: maximizing GPU utilization, managing soaring power draw, and unlocking space savings. He illustrates how every watt and every square inch counts. As GPU compute scales dramatically, storage efficiency is being engineered to enable maximum density and throughput. High-Capacity SSDs as a Game-Changer Jacobosky spotlights Solidigm D5-P5336 122TB SSDs as emblematic of the shift. Rather than a simple technical refresh, these drives represent a tectonic realignment in how data centers are being designed for huge capacity and optimized performance. With all-flash deployments offering up to nine times the space savings compared to hybrid architectures, Jacobosky underscores how SSD density can enable more GPU scale within fixed power and space budgets. This could even unlock achieving a 1‑petabyte SSD by the end of the decade. Embedded Efficiency The episode brings environmental considerations to the forefront. Jacobosky shares how an “all‑SSD” strategy can dramatically slash physical footprints as well as energy consumption. From data center buildout through end of lifecycle drive retirement, efficiency is driving both operational cost savings and ESG benefits — helping reduce concrete and steel usage, power draw, and e‑waste. Pioneering Storage Architectures and Cooling Innovation Listeners learn how AI-first innovators like Neo Cloud-style providers and sovereign AI operators lead the charge in deploying next-generation storage. Jacobosky also previews the Solidigm PS-1010 E1.S form factor, an NVIDIA fanless server solution that enables direct‑to‑chip Cold-Plate-Cooled SSDs integrated into GPU servers. He predicts that this systems-level integration will become a standard for high-density AI infrastructure. Storage as a Strategic Investment Solidigm challenges the notion that high-capacity storage is cost prohibitive. Within the framework of the AI token economy, Jacobosky explains that the true measure becomes minimizing cost per token and time to first token and, when storage is optimized for performance, capacity, and efficiency, the total cost of ownership (TCO) will often prove favorable after the first evaluation. Looking Ahead: Memory Wall, Inference Workloads, Liquid Cooling Jacobosky ends with a look ahead to where storage innovation will lead in the next five years. As AI models grow in size and complexity, he argues, storage is increasingly acting as an extension of memory, breaking through the “memory wall” for large inference workloads. Companies will design infrastructure from the ground up with liquid-cooling, future-scalable storage, and storage that supports massive model deployments without compromising latency. This episode is essential listening for data center architects, AI infrastructure strategists, and sustainability leaders looking to understand how storage is fast-becoming a defining factor in AI-ready data centers of the future.

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you a lawyer looking for some tips on AI technology? In this episode of Maximum Lawyer, Tyson and expert guest Martin Kravchenko discuss the practical use of AI technologies—such as vibe coding, AI agents, and tools like Gemini, ChatGPT, and Notebook LM—in legal and personal injury law firms. Tyson and Martin discuss bottlenecks within firms, especially with tech versus human bottlenecks. For law firms, Martin suggests that people are the biggest bottlenecks if you don't have the right amount of staff in your firm doing the right work. With a small firm, the people are important. As a firm increases, technology can become the bottleneck because there has to be a good, streamlined system in place to ensure people are able to do their jobs. If a good, solid CRM is not in place, the whole firm can really suffer.Martin speaks about his use of an AI tool called Gemini and the benefits of it. One thing is people can access it through their Google Workspace and Gmail, which makes it easy and efficient. It can also process documents better, which for lawyers who work with medical records, can be really handy. Many people struggle with badly scanned PDF documents, which for Gemini, it can read quite well. This can make any lawyer's life a lot easier when preparing for a case.Listen in to learn more!1:35 Integrating New Tools into Law Firm Processes2:21 Mapping and Standardizing Law Firm Processes4:18 Centralizing Templates and Knowledge Management7:35 When to Invest in Technology vs. Human Resources8:51 Effective Prompting and AI Tool Usage16:29 AI-Generated Content and Deepfakes17:12 Why Prefer Gemini Over Other AI Models20:56 The Value of Simple, Scalable Solutions35:32 Future of AI Agents and Legal Practice50:25 Long-Term Vision: Lawyers as Monitors of AI AgentsTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here.
