375: Why Saddle Hunting Might Be BETTER on Private Land with Cory Godar

Habitat Podcast #375 - In today's episode of The Habitat Podcast, we are back in the studio with co-host Andy and Cory Godar of Latitude Outdoors! We discuss: Weight savings matter most deep into multi-day hunts. Saddle hunting isn't just for public land — it's a lethal private land tool. Frame packs purpose-built for whitetail are filling a huge gap in the market. Efficient packing systems reduce noise, stress, and fatigue. Packing out a deer is often easier than dragging. Simplicity wins — don't overcomplicate your mobile setup. Family life shifts priorities, but efficient systems maximize limited time. And So Much More!

How To Structure A Tax-Efficient Management Entity

In this Tax Tuesday episode, Anderson's Barley Bowler, CPA, and Eliot Thomas, Esq., address listener questions on a wide range of tax strategies for real estate investors, business owners, and healthcare professionals. They explain how seller financing affects the ability to use cost segregation and bonus depreciation under IRC Section 465's at-risk rules, and how a single-member LLC can recoup startup education costs through a C Corporation structure with shareholder loans. Barley and Eliot walk through the powerful tax advantages of setting up a management C Corporation over a Wyoming holding company — including medical reimbursements, accountable plan deductions, and W-2 solo 401(k) options. They cover what Medicare premiums and COBRA costs are reimbursable through a C Corp's medical reimbursement plan, how the Section 121 exclusion works for primary residence sales, and what options exist for mitigating a seven-figure business sale gain. Other topics include write-offs for uncollected insurance balances in healthcare practices, avoiding required minimum distributions by rolling into an employer plan, and electing pass-through entity tax in New York for investment partnerships. Tune in for expert guidance on these strategies and more! Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.com Highlights/Topics: 7:18 — "How does the use of seller financing impact the ability to use strategies such as cost segregation and bonus depreciation?" Under IRC Section 465, your deductible losses are limited to the amount you have personally at risk. First phrase: "This is a great question. This covers a lot of different angles." 15:27 — "The business failed to make any profit in year 1. How are those initial costs recouped, and how much can be carried forward to future years?" A C Corp election allows full education deductions; fund via shareholder loan for tax-free recoupment. First phrase: "A single member LLC spent $9,500 on training and other related startup costs." 21:06 — "If I operate one LLC per real estate project, does it make sense to have a separate management entity to deduct shared expenses like an assistant, office costs, business meals, travel, and pre-development work? What's the correct tax structure?" A management C Corporation reduces rental income and allows tax-free reimbursements to the owner. First phrase: "If I operate one LLC per real estate project, does it make sense to have a separate management entity..." 27:45 — "What components of Medicare premiums are reimbursable by my property management C corporation?" Out-of-pocket Medicare and COBRA premiums qualify; general wellness supplements typically do not. First phrase: "What components of Medicare premiums are reimbursable by my property management C Corporation..." 38:10 — "If I sell my house, how long do I have to buy something else before I owe capital gains tax? Do I need to purchase the next home for more than the sale of the house or is there a percentage of that value?" Section 121 excludes up to $250K single or $500K married with no replacement property required. First phrase: "If I sell my house, how long do I have to buy something else before I owe capital gains tax?" 44:45 — "For my healthcare practice, where can I write off balances that insurance refuses to pay, and promotions/certain population deals where I give service discounts or free visits/supplement packages for charity events?" Cash-basis taxpayers cannot deduct uncollected income, and donated services are not tax-deductible. First phrase: "For healthcare practice, where can I write up balances? Insurance refuses to pay." 50:02 — "Can I avoid taking Required Minimum Distributions at age 73, if I roll over my retirement contributions from a previous employer's plan to my current employer's plan?" Rolling into a current employer plan may defer RMDs if you are not a greater-than-5% owner. First phrase: "Can I avoid taking required minimum distributions at age 73?" 53:12 — "Can an investment partnership elect the Pass Through Entity Tax in New York? What are the issues creating/dissolving investment partnerships?" New York allows any partnership to elect PTET, generating a valuable federal-level tax deduction. First phrase: "Can an investment partnership elect the pass through entity tax in New York?" 59:38 — "I sold my company, and I am coming into a 7-figure settlement soon. What can I do with that money to decrease my taxes?" Explore charitable remainder trusts, qualified opportunity zones, and capital loss harvesting strategies. First phrase: "I sold my company and I'm going to come into a seven figure settlement soon."

The existing work and plans in each action area won't change - rather they will work together where relevant and appropriate. This approach reflects the realities on the ground: social and environmental issues are often intertwined and managed  by the same small teams in the vineyard.

She walks through how to decide if dahlia tuber sales even make sense for your farm, how to price with labor and shipping fully accounted for, and why cash flow is only helpful if it is not quietly draining your time and energy.

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with Wharton economist Judd Kessler, author of Lucky by Design: The Hidden Economics You Need to Get More of What You Want. If you have ever looked at someone else's career success and thought, "They just got lucky," this conversation will give you a new lens. Judd introduces the idea of "hidden markets," the informal rules and systems that shape who gets opportunities, access, and scarce resources, even when money is not changing hands. They explore how leaders can evaluate allocation rules using Judd's three Es (equitable, efficient, and easy), why first come, first served "races" often reward availability more than merit, and how waiting lists can quietly shift costs onto the people least able to pay them. You will also hear Judd's "settle for silver" strategy, a practical way to make smarter choices in competitive markets, plus a thoughtful parenting angle on teaching kids to notice rules and incentives early. If you're looking for a fresh, research-backed perspective on how hidden rules shape who gets opportunities at work and in life, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "The goal of the book is to get people to start to recognizing these markets all around us." "In most of these markets, they play by a simple rule that we all understand, which is if you're willing to pay for the thing, then you get it." "Is the way that we're deciding who gets what... is it equitable? Is it efficient? And is it easy for market participants?" "I open my calendar and I see all these recurring meetings on my calendar, recurring meetings that were set up years or months ago. That's first in time, first in right." "If you understand the rules and develop strategies to get what you want from the market, then you actually can be one of the handful that actually gets the thing, that desirable outcome, and then it will look like you got lucky." "It's always going to be the folks who are in the market winning who are always going to think that it's fair." "Once you start thinking like, how am I actually allocating these things? That's when you've put on that market designer hat." "They'll come to you kind of with half-baked ideas because they know if they wait later on until they can fully bake the idea that the resources or the fun parts of the project might already be gone." "Part of what the Settle for Silver / Go for Gold Strategy is forcing you to do, is to think seriously about what you want and why you want it." "You, as a parent, you are designing the markets that your kids play in all the time." "We're not breaking the rules, but we are figuring out what they are so that we can put ourselves in a good position, and that's going to serve you well." "Maybe by being in the office, you are signaling your dedication to the firm that you're available for all of these opportunities." "If it's something that anybody can do, like send a quick email, right? That's, it's not actually costly. Anybody could send that email even if they're not truly dedicated and eager for the opportunity." "You cannot get all three E's for sure in any allocation mechanism. There's always going to be tradeoffs."

Efficient delivery of infrastructure is a critical issue for Ireland. In recent months, public debate around infrastructure delivery has been dominated by the claim that judicial review is a central bottleneck. But does the evidence tell a different story? Ahead of our Infrastructure Conference on 27 February, we're outlining the facts about judicial review. In this episode, Seán Guerin SC (Chair of the Council of The Bar of Ireland), Tom Flynn SC (Chair, Planning, Environmental and Local Government Bar Association) and Phoebe Duvall (Planning and Environmental Policy Officer at An Taisce) set out the risks of a recent proposal by the Government to change the environmental judicial review process. They argue that the proposals will create key issues for access to justice, risk breaching the State's obligations under EU law and potentially cause further delays rather than reducing them.

Efficient chores aren't about moving faster — they're about deciding the order once so you don't have to rethink it every morning. When chores feel chaotic or take longer than they should, it's usually not because there's too much to do. It's because there isn't a clear system in place. In this episode, I walk you step-by-step through my winter morning livestock chores — not just what I do, but why I do it in that order. From removing distractions first, to batching tasks, to building physical reminders into the environment, I explain the simple principles that keep our barn running smoothly — even during mud season. You'll hear how I structure chores to reduce wasted motion, prevent frustration, train livestock guardian dogs during daily routines, and build systems that protect future me from unnecessary work. The goal isn't perfection. It's consistency and clarity. If you've ever felt scattered during chores or like you're making three trips back to the barn for one forgotten thing, this episode will help you step back, think through your own order of operations, and build a routine that works with your life — not against it. In This Episode, I Cover: Why chaotic chores are usually a systems problem, not a workload problem What “order of operations” looks like in real-life livestock management How removing distractions first saves time and reduces frustration Why batching tasks reduces wasted motion How to use physical reminders in your environment so you don't rely on memory Training livestock guardian dogs during daily chores instead of adding extra time Using daily chores as an opportunity for livestock observation How efficient systems protect your time during busy seasons Why each family member having their own routine can improve consistency How to adjust your routine when seasons and chore demands change Key Takeaways: Efficient chores are built on order, not speed Clear routines reduce mental load and decision fatigue Batching similar tasks saves time and motion Building reminders into your environment prevents forgotten steps Regular observation during chores helps catch problems early Systems protect your time when workload increases Related Episodes: 02 | Overwhelmed? 4 Steps to Create a Practical Plan for Adding Livestock to Your Homestead Successfully 03 | Ready for Goats! 4 Steps to Help You Confidently Shop for and Purchase Your First Goats 06 | What Livestock Should I Get First?

routine Routine: The Most Underrated Survival Tool | Episode 587 Hey, it's James from SurvivalPunk.com. It's 45 degrees, I can barely see, and today we're talking about routine — why it's a great survival tool, how it helps you now, and how it helps you later. Routine is one of those preps that benefits you in the “for now” times and in the “oh crap” times. In a stressful situation, you fall back to your lowest level of training. So the higher you make that floor, the better you perform. And routine is how you raise the floor. You Will Fall to Your Routine Under Stress There's a part of my brain that loves routine. I didn't fully realize that until I got older, but I thrive on it. I get legitimately irritated when something messes up my routine. My morning coffee routine is streamlined. Optimized. Efficient. I've tweaked it over and over to make it faster so I can get out the door on time. Lately it's gotten too long, and I may need to rethink it — but the point is this: Once something becomes routine, you don't debate it. You just do it. That's powerful. Because when life gets chaotic, you don't rise to motivation. You fall back to habit. Eating Routine: Stop Letting Hunger Make Decisions Meal timing and food planning are huge. Yes, there's nuance. Yes, fasting can have benefits. Yes, you don't need to force-feed yourself at 9:00 if you're not hungry. But if you consistently don't plan food, you will make bad decisions when hunger hits. Your brain only has so much willpower. Decision fatigue is real. Every food choice drains a little bit of mental energy. If you don't plan, eventually you'll say, “Screw it,” and grab whatever is easy. Consistency beats intensity every time. I've seen people do crash diets — thousand calories a day, one meal a day, massive swings — and sure, they lose weight. Then they binge five pizzas and gain it back. Sustainable routines win. For me, that means: Meals prepped Protein prioritized Food ready before I'm starving If I'm not hungry at the exact time? Fine. But it's there when I need it. No panic decisions. Sleep Routine: Your Immune System Depends On It Sleep is massive. Bad sleep tanks your immune system. It wrecks hormones. It crushes recovery. It makes everything else harder. I try to go to bed at the same time every night. My wake time is consistent. Even on off days, I rarely sleep in past 5 or 6 a.m. When you wake up at a consistent time, you're proactive. When you sleep until noon, you're reactive all day. You're behind before you even start. Dial in: Bedtime Wake time Light exposure Supplements if needed Consistency compounds. Money Routine: If You Don't Plan It, It Plans You There's a quote floating around — if you don't plan your money, your money will plan you. It's true. When I review the budget regularly, everything works. We know where the money's going. Savings grows. There's less stress. When I don't? It's foggy. It feels tight. You wonder where everything went. Routine budgeting reduces anxiety. It reduces decision fatigue. It increases control. The more you can automate — savings transfers, bills, investments — the fewer decisions you have to make. Less friction means fewer mistakes. Fitness Routine: The Cascade Effect Fitness might be number four on this list, but it's powerful. A solid training routine creates a cascade of positive effects: Better sleep Better insulin sensitivity Better mental clarity Better mood I'm planning a body recomposition phase. That requires structure. I need a clear plan for when I train, what I eat, and how I recover. Again — routine lowers friction. You don't argue with yourself. You just execute. Final Thoughts Routine is boring. Routine is not sexy. Routine doesn't go viral. But routine raises your baseline. And in survival — whether it's job loss, stress, health issues, or disaster — baseline matters. Dial in: Food timing Sleep schedule Budget reviews Fitness structure You don't need perfection. You need consistency. This is James from SurvivalPunk.com.DIY to survive.

Gentlemen… what if the bar isn't just a place to “blow off steam”… but a system designed to keep you from leveling up? In this episode, we break down a controversial idea: bars aren't evil, but they are efficient. Efficient at sedating ambition. Efficient at normalizing mediocrity. Efficient at keeping men distracted from building legacies in business, family, health, and leadership. We unpack: • How bar culture subtly suppresses masculine drive• Why alcohol reduces ambition while increasing tolerance for mediocrity• The economic machine behind a $1.5 trillion global alcohol industry• How bars keep men predictable, distracted, and emotionally underdeveloped• Why younger men are quietly drinking less and what that means for leadership• The rise of sober social spaces and cultural shifts happening right now This isn't a conspiracy rant. It's a performance conversation. You can't lead your company, your marriage, or your mission if your clarity is being fogged every weekend. Bars aren't just “fun.” They shape behavior. They shape habits. They shape culture. And the real rebellion in 2026?Leaving early. Staying sharp. Building something meaningful.

Summary In this episode of the Future of Dermatology podcast, Dr. Faranak Kamangar speaks with Dr. Garrett Coman about the integration of AI in dermatology, the challenges of high patient volumes, and effective communication strategies in a busy practice. They discuss the importance of efficient workflows, the role of AI in reducing administrative burdens, and the need for dermatologists to focus on patient care rather than paperwork. Dr. Coman shares insights from his high-volume practice and emphasizes the importance of having a supportive team to manage patient communication and documentation effectively. Takeaways - Dr. Coman manages a high-volume dermatology practice with 30-34 patients daily. - Efficient patient communication is crucial for timely care. - AI can significantly reduce administrative burdens in dermatology. - Not all patient messages require a doctor's attention immediately. - Documentation should be streamlined to save time and reduce burnout. - Templates for notes can enhance efficiency in documentation. - Training staff to handle patient messages can improve workflow. - The focus should be on patient interaction rather than paperwork. - AI can assist in complex cases but should not replace human interaction. - The future of dermatology lies in balancing technology with patient care.

35: Wastewater Treatment Could be a Solution for Cleaner, More Efficient Fertilizer

Talking Climate

Play Episode Listen Later Feb 6, 2026 29:40


Episode Intro:A few weeks ago, I recorded an interview with Margaret Lumley who is co-founder and CEO of a small startup called Roca Water. Roca was one of the top runners up for our Wilkes Climate Prize in 2025. They are driving an innovative technology to tackle two different but related problems – that of water pollution and how we currently make fertilizer for growing plants, for agriculture.   Wastewater is a serious climate and pollution problem, but it doesn't get talked about a lot.  Nutrients from human waste cause harmful algal blooms and generate nitrous oxide, a greenhouse gas much more potent than CO₂.    At the same time, the way we produce fertilizer demands an incredible amount of carbon intensive energy to make ammonia, which is done using a chemical process invented before WWI – the Haber-Bosch process. It accounts for about 2 percent of global CO₂ emissions.Margaret Lumley's Roca is tackling these problems by seeing wastewater as an untapped resource. She believes their technology could reduce nitrous oxide emissions at wastewater plants and displace the energy-intensive Haber-Bosch process as the only method for producing ammonia.  She thinks doing this could reduce gigatons of global CO₂ emissions each year, and it could be affordable – potentially a win for municipalities that want to reduce their wastewater emissions and a win for agricultural markets that need fertilizer.    So, I hope you enjoy my conversation with Margaret Lumley.  A transcript of our conversation and more is available on our website. wilkescenter.utah.edu/podcast Key Takeaways:1.     Wastewater is a major but underappreciated climate and pollution problem: Nutrients from human waste drive harmful algal blooms and generate nitrous oxide, a greenhouse gas far more potent than CO₂.2.     Current fertilizer production is highly carbon intensive: The century-old Haber–Bosch process dominates ammonia production and accounts for ~2% of global CO₂ emissions.3.     Roca reframes wastewater as a resource: Instead of treating ammonium as waste, Roca Water recovers it and converts it into market-ready fertilizer.4.     Electrochemistry enables selective, efficient nutrient capture: ROCA's battery-inspired electrodes selectively remove ammonium (>90% selectivity) even in complex wastewater.5.     Durability is the core technical breakthrough: Roca's electrodes can operate for thousands of cycles (up to ~4 years), making commercialization feasible and cost-competitive.6.     The technology offers dual climate benefits at scale: It simultaneously reduces nitrous oxide emissions from wastewater plants and displaces energy-intensive ammonia production, with potential gigaton-scale CO₂e impact.Episode webpage: wilkescenter.utah.edu/podcast/35-roca-water/

Play Episode Listen Later Feb 4, 2026 16:16


https://teachhoops.com/ Selecting a zone offense requires a shift in mindset from "beating a man" to "beating a spot." A successful zone attack is built on the principle of "overloading"—putting more offensive players in an area than the defense can account for. Whether you are facing a 2-3, 3-2, or 1-3-1 zone, the goal remains the same: force two defenders to guard one person. By utilizing a "4-Out, 1-In" or a "1-3-1" alignment, you can create natural gaps in the defense. The key is to avoid standing still; players must constantly "short-corner" or "flash" to the high post to distort the zone's shape and create passing lanes that lead to high-percentage layups or open rhythm threes. The most effective way to "break" a zone is through ball reversal and "distortion" dribbles. A zone defense relies on the ball staying on one side of the floor so they can "shift and sag" toward the action. To counter this, your offense must move the ball faster than the defenders can slide. This often means using "skip passes" to the weak side to catch the defense out of position. Additionally, the "gap drive"—where a player dribbles directly at the shoulder of a zone defender—forces that defender to commit, which invariably leaves a teammate wide open. When your players understand that the goal is to make the zone "shrink" and then "stretch," they play with a level of patience that leads to a breakdown in the opponent's communication. Finally, a championship-caliber zone offense is defined by its offensive rebounding and "secondary" actions. Because zone defenders are often guarding areas rather than specific people, they are notoriously poor at "boxing out" during the flight of the ball. Coaches should emphasize "crashing from the perimeter" to exploit these missed assignments. Furthermore, if the initial set doesn't produce a shot, your team must have a "continuity" or a "reset" plan to keep the pressure on. By using film study to identify the "soft spots" of your upcoming opponent's zone—whether it's the high post in a 2-3 or the corners in a 1-2-2—you can tailor your attack to exploit their specific weaknesses, turning a potentially stagnant game into a clinical offensive performance.

We dug into the data to find out. After a 20-minute head-to-head test between a modern aero setup and a classic steel bike, the results were staggering: The aero setup was 30% more efficient, requiring just 221 watts to outpace a rider pushing 288 watts. In this episode, the Velo tech team breaks down the physics of why "Weight Weenie" upgrades fail where aerodynamics succeed, and how you can find these same "free" watts on your next ride.

A tight, historic cellar. Arched ceilings. Long corridors. Tiny shafts. We faced a design wall: to keep routes tenable, we needed twice the extraction that the building could carry. At that point, I've failed as an engineer - I've reached my limit and could not find a solution.Some time later, a solution appeared in my head from nowhere —what if the fan changed with the fire? Not in a crude on-off way, but by tracking temperature, exploiting density changes, and chasing constant mass flow instead of fixed volume.We unpack the moment this clicked, the fan physics behind it, and why hotter smoke can actually make extraction easier if you use the margin correctly. You'll hear how we oversized the fan, ran it at a lower frequency in ambient, then ramped as temperatures rose to keep kilograms per second steady. That adaptive control boosted cubic meters per second right when the layer needed support, eased plug-hole entrainment, and stabilised makeup air velocities. We walk through the thermodynamics, the electrical and pressure implications, and how these pieces form a practical control strategy for retrofits and new builds.To ground the idea, we share two paths to proof. First, CFD with user-defined control that reads gas temperature each time step and updates fan frequency with smoothed delays to prevent oscillations—capturing the real feedback loop between fire and system. Then, full-scale container burns with live control showed the same trends from 20 to over 500 degrees: falling duct pressures, lower fan power at heat, and the headroom to increase volumetric extraction without breaking limits. Thinking about it now, this idea is a part of many other concepts that I describe together. To show a way how we come from the simple framework—Smoke Control 1.0 (empirical, static), 2.0 (CFD-informed, still static), into a new smoke control 3.0 (adaptive, feedback-driven)—and explore how this thinking can reshape underground venues, car parks, tunnels, pressurisation, and natural ventilation.If you care about safer evacuation, smaller shafts, lower velocities, and systems that work with physics rather than against it, this story is for you. Subscribe, share with a colleague who designs smoke control, and leave a review with your toughest question so we can tackle it next.Reading material:- Can smoke control become smart?- Transient characteristic of the flow of heat and mass in a fire as the basis for an optimised solution for smoke exhaust- Smart Smoke Control as an Efficient Solution for Smoke Ventilation in Converted Cellars of Historic Buildings----The Fire Science Show is produced by the Fire Science Media in collaboration with OFR Consultants.

The accounting team at Looker showed up every day knowing their jobs might disappear within a year. The company was in limbo—acquired by Google but still waiting on European approval—so the deal hadn't closed, integration hadn't begun, and uncertainty hung over the office. Yet the team continued to deliver “absolutely excellent work,” taking pride in their craft even when the upside had faded, Razzak Jallow tells us.That moment stayed with him. For Jallow, now CFO of FloQast, it crystallized a belief that professionalism and pride are not situational—they're intrinsic. “We get to choose what we do,” he says, reflecting on how the team's attitude revealed character when incentives were stripped away. It's a lesson that echoes throughout his career, from Adobe's subscription transition to Apple's sales finance organization and into his first CFO role.At FloQast, that mindset shows up in how he approaches scale. Early on, the work was about fixing what was directly controllable—the “low-hanging fruit,” as he puts it. Over time, the challenge shifted. As teams and systems matured, the hardest problems required multiple functions to change together, Jallow tells us. Speed gave way to coordination; individual fixes gave way to shared ownership.The same discipline shapes how he thinks about growth. Efficient growth, in his view, starts with customer value, not the P&L. If teams are investing in the highest-ROI initiatives for customers, the financial results will follow—“maybe not in three months… but certainly long term,” he tells us.Whether navigating acquisition limbo or platform expansion, Jallow's throughline is clear: strategy is built on judgment, culture, and pride in the work—especially when no one is watching.

Podcasting takes time. Usually more time than you expect. If your show feels like a lot of work with very little return, the problem probably isn't your commitment. It's your production process. I see this all the time as a podcast coach. Podcasters reacting week to week instead of working from a repeatable system. Scrambling for topics. Recording whenever there's a free moment. Editing on the fly. Publishing late. Promoting inconsistently. It's common, but it's also the fastest way to burn out before your podcast ever pays off. In this episode, I break down why efficiency matters more than hustle when it comes to podcasting for your business. Not because podcasting should be easy, but because narrowing the gap between effort and return is the only way to stay consistent long enough to see results. You'll hear what actually makes a podcast production process efficient, what most podcasters are missing, and how a clear structure, intentional batching, and a documented workflow can dramatically reduce the time and energy cost of your show. This isn't about cutting corners. It's about building a process that supports consistency, quality, and long-term momentum. If you're just starting out, efficiency helps you build the right habits from day one. If you're already podcasting and wondering why the return doesn't match the effort, this episode will help you see where things are breaking down. If you want help tightening up your production process or figuring out how to get it right from day one, book a free private podcast coaching call.

What really matters for markets in 2026—and why are most forecasts focused on the wrong metrics? Lance Roberts visits with Simplify Portfolio Manager & Chief Investment Strategist, Michael Green, CFA, to examine the structural changes inside today's markets that are reshaping price discovery, volatility, and risk. From the rise of passive investing and ETF dominance to the growing disconnect between fundamentals and flows, the mechanics of how markets trade have changed dramatically. We explore why small-cap and mid-cap stocks remain the most economically sensitive indicators, how ETFs can pull sellers higher during inflows—and why that dynamic reverses dangerously during outflows. We also examine declining market elasticity, the limitations of the Efficient Market Hypothesis, and why traditional analysis is increasingly ignored. Beyond markets, we connect these shifts to investor behavior, financial nihilism, generational risk-taking, and the unintended consequences of policy intervention. From the "Bank of Dad" to systemic fund imbalances, this discussion reframes what a useful market outlook should actually focus on heading into 2026. This is not a prediction. It is a framework for understanding risk, structure, and consequences. 0:00 INTRO 2:02 - Outlook for 2026 - What's the important metric? 6:22- Small-cap, Mid-cap stocks are most economically sensitive 8:32 - The importance of Understanding What You Own 11:09 - The Issue of ETF's - Dragging the Sellers higher 13:13 - The Theory of Passive Investing 15:16 - The Composition of Trading has Changed 17:52 - How to correct an over valued stock 19:25 - The Problem with Passive Investing - what happens when investors start selling indexed ETF's (the Bigger the Company, the LESS Elastic the Demand Response) 23:55 - The Efficient market Hypothesis 25:32 - What Makes for a Useful Market Forecast - The market Can't Crash?? 27:14 - Systemic Issues within the Market 31:14 - What Would Michael Green Do? 33:18 - The Death of Analysis & Fund Imbalances 37:13 - The Next Generation of Investors and Risk-taking 39:17 - The Poverty Line & Young Investors 43:34 - When the Government Gets Involved 46:04 - Making Choices - Luxuries vs Necessities 49:18 - Financial Education, Financial Stability, & Financial Choices: Financial Nihilism 53:16 - The Bank of Dad & Soft Society 1:00:58 - Actions Have Consequences 1:05:30 - How to Reach Michael Green 1:06:33 - The Problem with The Problem Hosted by RIA Advisors Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO, w Simplify Portfolio Manager & Chief Investment Strategist, Michael Green, CFA Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- You can read Michael Green's blog, "Yes...I Give a Fig," here: https://www.yesigiveafig.com/ ------- Watch Today's Full Video on our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQSiR6fxLGg&list=PLVT8LcWPeAuhi47sn298HrsWYwmg8MV7d&index=1 ------- Watch our previous show, "Social Security Reform: Expansion or Cuts?" here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQSiR6fxLGg&list=PLVT8LcWPeAuhi47sn298HrsWYwmg8MV7d&index=1 -------- The latest installment of our new feature, Before the Bell, "Market Rotation Is Broadening — But Risks Remain," is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KS2mSWm16qg&list=PLwNgo56zE4RAbkqxgdj-8GOvjZTp9_Zlz&index=1 ------- Get more info & commentary: https://realinvestm entadvice.com/newsletter/ -------- SUBSCRIBE to The Real Investment Show here: http://www.youtube.com/c/TheRealInvestmentShow -------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #MarketOutlook2026 #PassiveInvesting #ETFMarketStructure #FinancialNihilism #MarketRisk #MichaelGreen
