Podcasts about elevators

Today's guest is Carlos Escobar, Traction Elevator Aficionado with Hyperion Solutions. Carlos grew up in a machine shop surrounded by craftsmen who could turn raw metal into solutions and that mindset still drives everything he does today. Carlos has spent his career tackling the toughest elevator modernization challenges and preserving century-old machines. More recently, he has been thinking deeply about where AI, training, and the future of the trades are headed next.Chapters:00:00 From Machine Shop to Mastery04:58 The Allure of Legacy Equipment07:32 Lessons from the Old Machines09:56 Complex Challenges in Modernization12:45 The Importance of Technical Expertise15:42 AI: The Future of Training18:24 Training the Next Generation20:50 Mentorship and Industry ConnectionsResources: Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@elevatorcareers/ Submit a Topic Idea for the Podcast: https://elevatorcareers.net/ Connect With Us: linktr.ee/AllredGroupA Message From Our Sponsor: Looking for top-tier talent to join your team?

Episode: 1605 The brief race to build very tall buildings: 1885 to 1931.  Today, the brief day of the first skyscrapers.

Luke Wilson joins David and Dana this week to talk about childhood nicknames, Nick Swardson's appendix, and his new Netflix show with Will Ferrell, Hawk. Also, Bill Maher's fascination with Dana's marriage, getting stuck on an elevator with Wes Anderson, and the lasting influence of Idiocracy.

In this episode, I sat down with Robert Schram from Cedes to talk about how technology is reshaping the elevator industry. Robert's path into elevators started in construction, laying flooring to fund surfing trips, before eventually working his way from field repair into some of the most advanced conversations happening around IoT, predictive maintenance, and smart buildings. We discussed the evolution of elevator safety, what it means to “unleash the voice of the elevator,” and how new technology could transform the way elevators are maintained.Chapters:00:00 Intro01:40 Journey into the Elevator Industry05:52 Innovations in Elevator Safety Technology07:49 The Future of Elevator Maintenance10:14 Data-Driven Decision Making in Elevators13:35 The Role of IoT in Elevators15:45 Challenges in Adopting New Technologies19:22 The Importance of Transparency in Elevator Services27:41 Smart Behavior and Future Innovations31:36 Elevators in the Connected Building of the Future34:38 Advice for the Next Generation in the Industry35:55 OutroResources: Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@elevatorcareers/ Submit a Topic Idea for the Podcast: https://elevatorcareers.net/ Connect With Us: linktr.ee/AllredGroupA Message From Our Sponsor: Looking for top-tier talent to join your team?

The Grown Ass Man Podcast is back with Episode 2, and Greg DeMarco and Patrick O'Dowd are already settling into the kind of show this was meant to be: sports, life, nostalgia, nonsense, and the conversations grown men actually have when nobody is trying too hard to sound important.This week, Greg and Patrick start with the FIFA World Cup and the rare way sports can bring people together, even when the rest of the world feels divided by politics, arguments, and whatever everyone is mad about online today. From there, things go exactly where they should on this show: into old music, vinyl records, cassette tapes, first albums, big stereos, 80s cartoon theme songs, and the weird little memories that stick with you forever.The guys also get into the new College Football 27 video game, including the absurdly perfect “Fist Pump” achievement inspired by the infamous 2014 Virginia Tech vs. Wake Forest game. There is a little wrestling talk as well, with Sheamus reportedly leaving WWE coming up during the episode, but this is not a wrestling show trying to sneak in another wrestling show. It is two longtime friends letting the conversation go where it goes.And because this is the Grown Ass Man Podcast, there is plenty of real-life ridiculousness too. Patrick talks about trying to work out more, while Greg explains why he will never admit the hot towel at the barber is too hot, even if it is clearly burning his face, because apparently that is just part of being a man.The episode title, “Sounds Phenomenal In An Elevator,” comes from a throwaway moment during the show when background music was playing under the conversation and Greg realized it probably belonged in the nicest elevator you have ever ridden in. That is the show in one line: casual, funny, a little random, and somehow exactly the kind of thing you end up remembering.Episode 2 is for anyone who misses real conversations, remembers when music came with liner notes, still knows too many 80s cartoon theme songs, and understands that getting older is a lot funnier when you are not doing it alone.Listen to Grown Ass Man Podcast #2: Sounds Phenomenal In An Elevator now.ALWAYS USE YOUR HEAD.The Chairshot Radio NetworkSports - Entertainment - Sports EntertainmentChairshot Radio Network Launched in 2017, the Chairshot Radio Network presents you with the best in sports, entertainment, and sports entertainment.

In this live episode, I met with Nick Tucker and Brian Thibault. Nick has been in the elevator industry for over 10 years and is a licensed elevator mechanic with experience in service, repair, modernization, and commercial operations. He currently serves as the Commercial Operations Manager at South Jersey Elevator. In addition to his operational role, Nick is a CET instructor. Brian is the Vice President of Education and Training at Associated Builders and Contractors New Jersey. Since entering the construction industry in 2002, he has advanced through nearly every level of the profession. Now, as a licensed electrician, secretary, and instructor for the New Jersey Electrical Group, Brian is dedicated to developing the future of the skilled trades. In this conversation, we dove into one of America's only non-union elevator apprenticeship programs, and how it can give young people more access to the elevator trade.Chapters:00:00 Introduction00:03 The Workforce Crisis in Construction02:00 Misconceptions About Skilled Trades04:48 The Importance of Apprenticeship Programs07:59 Corporate Investment in Workforce Development10:41 Nick's Career Journey in Elevators14:00 Brian's Career Path and ABC's Mission16:51 The Role of ABC in Workforce Development19:40 Finding Opportunities in Skilled Trades22:41 Elevator Apprenticeship Program Development25:52 Training Structure and Safety Protocols29:52 Skills for Modern Apprentices33:50 Opportunities After Completing Apprenticeship36:59 Starting an Elevator Apprenticeship Program39:53 Innovation in the Elevator Industry40:46 Recruiting for Apprenticeship Programs42:46 Apprenticeship Enrollment Process45:54 Middle School Construction Camps46:51 Rapid Fire Questions and Insights51:46 Future of Workforce Development and ApprenticeshipsResources: Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@elevatorcareers/ Submit a Topic Idea for the Podcast: https://elevatorcareers.net/ Connect With Us: linktr.ee/AllredGroupA Message From Our Sponsor: Looking for top-tier talent to join your team?

I interviewed Nathan Fairchild about Ganek Immersive Studio at USC's School of Cinematic Arts on Thursday, June 18, 2026 at Augmented World Expo in Long Beach, California. Fairchild was at AWE showing off some student projects of Immersive Video, and I really quite enjoyed the hyperstylized, fever dream of Elevator by LILLETH who is coming from an immersive theatre background. Ori Inbar had mentioned how immersive video was one of the sectors that was growing within his opening keynote. The Apple Vision Pro has helped to revitalize interest in the more cinematic 180-degree forms, but also for XR as a screen replacement and more immersive way to experience cinematic content.

What if the very stories you think are 'just ordinary' are actually your greatest superpowers? April Bell, wisdom story alchemist and founder of innovative storytelling methodologies, reveals why the moments we dismiss as obvious to us are often amazing to others. After spending nearly two decades helping everyone from corporate leaders to community elders uncover the wisdom embedded in their life experiences, April discovered she was the reluctant storyteller herself. Her journey from personal historian to story alchemist began when she realized that vulnerability isn't weakness - it's the secret ingredient that transforms surface-level conversations into life-altering connections. Through her Story Catcher app and transformational workshops, April has developed a unique approach to helping people understand not just what they believe, but why they believe it, creating a foundation for clear decision-making in careers, relationships, and personal growth.In this conversation, April shares the exact moment she abandoned her polished elevator speech at a networking lunch and used a simple three-level exercise that completely transformed how 12 strangers connected with each other. You'll discover why every day can be extraordinary when you start listening for the stories in your life, how to practice vulnerability without oversharing, and the framework April uses to turn tangent-filled conversations into powerful wisdom stories. April also reveals her 'obvious to you, amazing to others' principle and explains why the cookie-cutter success formulas aren't working anymore - people are hungry for authentic stories that give them permission to follow their own hearts.Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week?

What has changed about recovery, sobriety, and alcohol over the last decade? In this episode of That Sober Guy Podcast, Shane Ramer sits down with Paul Churchill, founder and host of the Recovery Elevator Podcast, for a conversation that has been more than ten years in the making. Shane and Paul both launched their podcasts in the early days of the modern sobriety movement and have spent years talking with thousands of people navigating their relationship with alcohol. In this episode, they reflect on how the recovery landscape has evolved, what they've learned from their audiences, and why more people than ever are questioning alcohol's role in their lives. Together, they tackle some of the biggest debates in recovery today, including identity, labels, moderation, the sober curious movement, and whether people need to hit rock bottom before making a change. They also discuss the common struggles men face when trying to quit drinking, the excuses that keep people stuck, and why so many smart, successful people continue drinking even when they know it's holding them back. In this episode: • How the sobriety and recovery movement has changed over the last decade • The rise of the sober curious movement • Do people still need to identify as alcoholics? • Can some people successfully moderate their drinking? • The biggest lies people tell themselves about alcohol • Why successful people continue drinking despite the consequences • What keeps people stuck longer than necessary • Lessons learned from thousands of conversations about recovery and personal growth • Where the future of sobriety may be headed Whether you're sober curious, alcohol free, in long term recovery, or simply questioning your relationship with alcohol, this conversation offers practical insights, honest reflections, and plenty of thought provoking discussion. Takeaway: If you're a man looking to quit drinking, improve your health, sharpen your focus, and connect with other like minded men, join our free online men's community, The Victory Circle.

Some days just suck and that’s okay. Here’s what you can do about it with simple these mood elevators. There will be times when a bad mood hangs around. Maybe something triggered you. It could be a cloudy day when you counted on sunshine. Or you might feel crummy or no reason at all. You just feel off. [Join me at the Intuition Cafe – the 1st & 3rd Wednesdays every month from 10 -11am ET for just $11/session.] Feeling Dysregulated A lot of people describe this as feeling dysregulated, which includes feeling anxious, irritable, overwhelmed, emotionally reactive, or just plain blah. The truth is there’s likely nothing truly wrong. You’ve had too much stress, too much news, too many demands. You haven’t had enough downtime or sleep. You’re overdue for some self-care. The good news? You don’t need therapy, a silent meditation retreat, or an appointment of any kind to feel more at peace. These five simple mood elevators are free, fast, and surprisingly powerful. I’m sharing them today because honestly, I’ve been in a mood myself for a few days and putting this together for you has already lifted my spirits. 1. Start Moving One of the fastest ways to lift your mood is to move your body, even for just a couple of minutes. Go outside, especially if it’s sunny. Fresh air and natural light work quickly to shift your emotional state. But even a rainy day has its benefits. Rain actually reduces an overabundance of positive ions that are absorbed from electronics and screens. Walking in the rain, taking a shower, or spending time near moving water like a stream or the ocean helps clear that energetic overload. Other easy options: Put on your favorite music and dance around the room for three minutes Take a short walk around the block Do a few minutes of stretching Try just three yoga poses Get physical, even briefly, and watch how quickly things start to shift 2. Stop Arguing with Reality When you’re in a bad mood, your mind can drift to unhappy thoughts. Then you might think you shouldn’t feel this way. Or other people have it worse and even things aren’t really that bad. But pushing your feelings away doesn’t make them go away. It suppresses them, and that’s not good for your emotional health long-term. The faster path to feeling more at peace is actually to own what you’re feeling. Face it. Accept it. Don’t make yourself wrong for it. When you acknowledge your feelings, even the uncomfortable ones, that’s often the quickest way to move through them and come out the other side. 3. Find One Tiny Thing Going Your Way Okay, this might feel difficult, but the truth is EVERYTHING is not bad. Even on your worst days, something is working in your favor. You don’t need to drag out you gratitude journal or make a list of 20 things. Just noticing one positive thing will be a solid mood elevator. Did you eat a good lunch? Find something on sale? Pay your bills and have a little left over? Hit a string of green lights? (One of my personal favorites!) These tiny moments count. I’ll share one that happened to me just yesterday. A client I coached a few years ago texted to say he got engaged. He was a sweet guy who struggled with social anxiety around dating, and we worked together to find some simple solutions. He sent me their happy engagement photo and said it wouldn’t have happened without me. I left him the most choked-up voicemail. That moment brought me completely to tears in the best heart-filled way. Finding even one thing that’s going your way shifts your brain out of fight or flight mode and into a place of greater peace and joy. Try it right now. 4. Call a Funny Friend As I was sitting down to write this episode, my phone rang. It was my friend Tammy. She has this gift for finding the humor in everything. We ended up reminiscing about our 20s, when we’d get together every Thursday night to listen to new music and dance in my living room. Laughing with someone who knows you well is one of the most a powerful mood elevators. If you have a friend with a good sense of humor, call her. Tell her your moody little story. Find the humor in it together. Nostalgia is genuinely uplifting. That’s why people love a good stroll down memory lane. Childhood stories, old shared jokes, funny memories are all good stuff, and can absolutely raise your spirits. Who could you call right now? 5. Create a Moment of Delight This is a fun one. What’s one small, easy thing that’s guaranteed to bring a little joy back into your day? Here’s mine – mascara. I stopped wearing mascara during COVID. Who was I going to see? But this year I started putting it on again every single day, just for me. When I catch myself in the mirror now, I smile. Those long dark lashes make me feel pretty and more youthful. That’s a genuine moment of delight, and it costs almost nothing. Here’s another one. I recently discovered a brand of sugar-free chocolate made with allulose that tastes just like the real thing. No funny aftertaste, no compromise and only one carb! It’s called Goalz  I’m not getting paid to say that, I just love it and had to share. Your moment of delight might be an iced coffee, a hot scented bath, a funny cat video, drawing Zentangles, or cutting flowers from your garden to put on the kitchen table. Whatever it is, do it now. Don’t wait until later. You deserve a moment of delight today. Bonus: Ground Yourself and Breathe Sometimes what you really need is to reconnect with the earth beneath your feet which is one of the most powerful mood elevators. Try this: This is a three-minute practice. Close your eyes and imagine sending roots down from the soles of your feet, deep into the earth. Connect with the soil, stones,  plants, and all the creatures. Acknowledge the four directions and all the elements. Say hello to the nature spirits. Thank Mother Earth for giving you a home for this life. Then take three slow, deep breaths. With each inhale, draw earth energy back up through those roots, up through your feet, and into your body. Draw the energy all the way up through the top of your head. As that energy rises, picture each of your chakras lighting up in sequence from root to crown. Notice how you feel afterward. This simple practice can open your energy field, deepen your breathing, and calm your nervous system. It can help you feel genuinely connected again. Your connection to the earth and nature is one of the most reliable paths to inner peace. Key Takeaways Feeling dysregulated or moody is normal. It doesn’t mean something is truly wrong. Moving your body, even for just a few minutes, is one of the fastest ways to shift your emotional state. Accepting your feelings rather than fighting them helps you move through them more quickly. Gratitude doesn’t have to be a big practice. One good thing is enough to help shift your brain out of fight or flight mode. Laughter and nostalgia are genuinely powerful mood elevators. Do not underestimate them. Small moments of delight are available to you right now, today, at little to no cost. Grounding with breathwork can reset your energy and restore a sense of peace in just a few minutes. Frequently Asked Questions What does it mean to feel dysregulated? Feeling dysregulated means your nervous system is out of balance. You might feel anxious, irritable, emotionally reactive, exhausted, or unable to focus. It’s often caused by too much stress, too little rest, or sensory overload from things like news and social media. It’s not a clinical diagnosis, it simply means your system needs some care and reset. What are the fastest ways to lift your mood naturally? The fastest natural mood boosters include moving your body (even briefly), going outside, calling a funny friend, and finding one small thing to feel grateful for. These methods work because they shift your nervous system out of threat mode without requiring any appointments, products, or significant time. Why does changing your physical state help your mood? Your body and mind are deeply connected. Physical movement releases tension, shifts your energy, and triggers neurochemical changes that help you feel better. Even three minutes of dancing, a short walk, or standing in sunlight can have a noticeable effect on how you feel emotionally. Is it okay to just sit with a bad mood? Yes, and in fact, accepting your feelings rather than fighting them is often the most effective approach. Suppressing emotions keeps them stuck. Acknowledging them without judgment allows them to move through you naturally. What is grounding and how does it help emotional well-being? Grounding is a practice of consciously connecting your energy to the earth. It can involve visualization, breathwork, or walking barefoot outside. Grounding helps regulate your nervous system, deepen your breathing, and restore a sense of calm and inner peace. It’s one of the best mood elevators! How can I feel more at peace on a difficult day? Start small. Move  your body, accept how you’re feeling without judgment, or find one tiny thing going your way. You might reach out to someone who makes you laugh, treat yourself to one small moment of delight, or take a few slow deep breaths. You don’t need to do all six. Even one can begin to shift your mood. Now you know that feeling moody from time to time is part of being human. And, the good news is that you have more tools than you might think to feel more at peace and most of them are easy and already within reach.

This week, Geordie & Michelle. veer into the eerie world of liminal spaces, alternate realities and the unsettling idea that there might be places that exist just beyond our own...Have you heard of the Elevator Game? What began as a South Korean urban legend evolved into an internet paranormal ritual, spreading through horror forums and social media. The premise is simple but unsettling: enter an elevator in a building with at least ten floors, follow a precise sequence of button presses and you may find yourself transported to another dimension. That legend leads to one of the internet's most enduring mysteries: the case of Elisa Lam. What was she doing in that hotel elevator? Could her strange behavior have anything to do with the Elevator Game—or is that simply a modern myth layered onto a tragic real-life event? Geordie also explores the unsettling mythology of Backrooms, the psychology of liminal spaces and why these strange in-between places continue to haunt our imaginations.

What's up bros? We're gearing up for a little international trip to Scotland and you know what that means, it's time to try to get everyone back on good terms. We ended last episode on good terms but clearly that was just everyone having fun so now it's time to get to the real issues and that's very clearly, Kelli being broke and Shamea looking inward. Kelli had a great episode being transparent but there's still something missing on Shamea's end. Let's hope she can figure out what's going on soon otherwise we don't know what to do with Shamea Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Elevator chaos sparks debate on who would panic, who would sleep through it, and how far Roz would go to solve a bathroom emergency, while the crew also tackles irrational fears they're “too old” for and Roz's intense anti-Montreal sports loyalty. Things spiral with hypotheticals about getting kicked off flights and how everyone would describe themselves in one word, before getting into relationship quirks they can't complain about, brutal partner reviews, and the ultimate debate of giving up kissing or sauces forever. Add in wild listener questions about rat-free Alberta, animal battle showdowns, confusing TV plotlines, and ranking movie genres, and it's a full deep dive into personalities, petty opinions, and absolute chaos.

On today's episode we talk about an unsung hero of the modern age: the elevator. Without them, the world wouldn't be the same. 

In this episode, I sat down with Mike Luraschi, VP of Safety and Risk Management at TEI Group, to talk about safety in the elevator industry: how it's evolved over the years, why complacency creates the biggest risks, safety resources for small companies, and why mental health support is essential for making sure everyone gets home safely.Chapters:00:00 Intro01:07 Getting into the Elevator Industry03:23 The Importance of Safety in the Elevator Industry05:15 Transitioning to Safety Leadership06:38 Individual Responsibility for Safety09:19 Unique Challenges of Safety in the Elevator Industry12:06 Level of Acceptable Risk17:34 Complacency and its Dangers24:43 Building a Safety Culture28:00 Safety Resources for Smaller Companies30:45 Mental Health & Safety in the Workforce36:21 Final Thoughts on Safety and CommunityResources:Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@elevatorcareers/Submit a Topic Idea for the Podcast: https://elevatorcareers.net/Connect With Us: linktr.ee/AllredGroupA Message from our Sponsor: Looking for top-tier talent to join your team?

Most people think of romantic music as background noise for dates, movies, or weddings. But researchers have found that music can actually influence romantic behavior and attraction in measurable ways. Listen to discover how love songs may be doing more than simply setting the mood. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/06/100618112139.htm Take a look around you and notice how many buttons surround you. Elevator buttons. Crosswalk buttons. Remote controls. Keyboards. Car dashboards. Humans push buttons all day long—and often repeatedly, even when pushing again does absolutely nothing. There's something deeply satisfying and psychologically powerful about pressing a button and getting an immediate response. But buttons are a surprisingly recent invention, and they fundamentally changed how humans interact with machines, technology, and even each other. Rachel Plotnick, associate professor of Cinema and Media Studies at Indiana University, explores the strange history and psychology of buttons, why people are so drawn to them, and how “push-button culture” transformed modern life. She is author of Power Button: A History of Pleasure, Panic, and the Politics of Pushing (https://amzn.to/3xvIj5j). Humans don't just enjoy games—we seem to need them. From sports and gambling to video games, puzzles, and board games, people everywhere devote enormous amounts of time and energy to play. But games may be doing far more than entertaining us. Neuroscientist and physicist Kelly Clancy explains how games shape human behavior, influence culture, teach strategy, reward risk-taking, and even help societies evolve. In our conversation, she reveals why games are woven so deeply into human nature and why understanding games may help explain the way humans learn, compete, cooperate, and make decisions. Kelly is author of Playing with Reality: How Games Have Shaped Our World (https://amzn.to/3W02BNR). Online product reviews have become incredibly influential.

Producer Dan Cook had an elevator experience on the way into work. Shouldn't there just be a societal understanding that we let people get OFF the elevator before we try to get ON the elevator?! What's the societal understanding you think people screw up?

Thursday 3pm Hour: Jason starts the show talking about producer Dan's elevator experience today and the simple etiquettes we seem to be missing more often in society.

Comic Sans often signals levity or sarcasm. The font is occasionally used for a key phrase in some official city elevator inspection certificates. That's caused concern for some Chicagoans, including at least two Curious City listeners.
