From mortgaging his house for a used “bug truck” to commanding Ohio's slickest 10,000-sq-ft “Beehive” HQ, Jason Carpenter has turned Environmental Pest Management into the Midwest's apartment-pest juggernaut—servicing 1 million+ units with a patented data platform (“Pest Genius”) and a 3,000-page digital playbook that lets the business run while he's on the back nine. Sit in with the Blue-Collar Twins as Jason lays out: Door-Knock Origins → $350 K Contract – how a single 50-unit bed-bug job snowballed into a $300 K+ recurring deal and rewired his focus from homes to high-density housing.Pest Genius – the in-house software (and patent) that tracks every unit, photo, KPI and health-department audit across millions of square feet.EOS + Family Power – wife Karen (COO), son Brandon (VP) and daughter Kayla (content chief) running weekly scorecard L10s while Jason stays out of the office—unless he's eaten or played 18.Net over Vanity – why a Franco Giannamore valuation wake-up call pushed margins from “meh” to mission-critical and reset his eight-year, $20 M/20 % BHAG.Golf, Barter & Brand – converting country-club barters into 100+ clients and why density beats door-to-door for long-term wealth.Exit Options – succession plans, EBITDA realities and the number that makes walking off the course worth it. Stick around for Jason's candid take on therapy-backed leadership, mastermind ROI, and why every technician needs to read their P&L.

OpenAI, Meta & Google are fighting over who gets to control the future of superintelligence but what happens when Zuck robs Sam Altman blind? And is Apple about to onboard Anthropic? In the big AI news this week, Meta hires over 10 top OpenAI engineers (for a rumored potential $300 million in compensation), Apple considers replacing its entire AI strategy with Claude or ChatGPT, and Microsoft's new medical model diagnoses diseases 4x better than human doctors. Plus, Google DeepMind's gaming push, a fake band goes viral on Spotify, and OpenAI's secret open-source model might be dropping any day now. Also: Korea's first AI-animated show, Tesla's Optimus robot hits a setback, Google Voice pushes a new update and yes, there's a cowboy robot rizzing people on the street of Austin.

PREVIEW KING CHARLES III: The three car royal train enjoys retirement by a frugal monarch. Colleague Gregory Copley also mentions the splendidly famous royal Scottish engine. More.

Oil is everywhere this time, with consumption and temperatures problems for three of our owners. Email podcasts@aopa.org for a chance to get on the show. Join the world's largest aviation community at aopa.org/join Full notes below: Mark has a Twin Comanche and is loving his new electronic ignition. He has an issue where oil temperature and CHTs are slightly different on one engine than the other. His oil temperature also spiked on one climbout on a hot day, and he's wondering what's wrong. He's using the variable timing. Nothing like this happened prior to the ignition install. Paul suggested that maybe some baffling changed during the install. The hosts narrow in on either airflow or oil flow as the culprit. Colleen said to think of baffling not as trying to direct airflow across the engine, but a system that creates a high pressure, pushing air through the cylinder cooling fins.     Chris is wondering what's wrong with his new engine. He has a Cessna 206 and he put in a new Continental IO-550. After some initial runs, but found that it was burning about a quart of oil per four hours. On one flight is running a bit rough. It had turned out to be a failed magneto. They added an air/oil separator, which obviously didn't help. He did some low level, high power runs that didn't seem to help. At 100 hours he did a ring flush on Savvy's recommendation. The ring flush seemed beneficial. Then after 10 hours he had only burned a quart. They are now at 150 hours and they are at a quart every 4 or 5 hours, and they've done another ring flush and it's burning less oil again. He's wondering why the rings are clogging up. Mike immediately zeros in on the problem by asking how long Chris has been running straight weight oil. He admits it was 150 hours on the advice of his mechanic. AD oil helps to prevent sludge build-up.   Willie is wondering if you need an A&P to do an AMOC, or alternative method of compliance with an AD. The hosts describe the process, which can be completed by any “operator” meaning owner. So, one need not hold an A&P to request an AMOC. Most AMOCs apply only to the operator, although Mike said a manufacturer can develop a global AMOC that would apply to everyone.   Steve was flying his Cessna 182RG with a Lycoming O-540 that he recently top overhauled with all new cylinders. He flew low and at high power to break them in, and oil consumption stabilized. He flew another 15 hours on regular oil and Camgard with virtually no oil burn. Then on a flight he was asked to slow rapidly on approach, and on that one flight he lost oil at a rate of three-quarters of a quart per hour. The consumption eventually settled at around a quart every 2.3 hours. He's wondering if ring flutter is real and whether it caused the increased oil consumption. He didn't notice excessive oil on the airplane. A ring wash didn't fix it. He eventually decided to just overhaul the cylinders again. On inspection they didn't find anything. Mike would have suspected a broken ring or expander spring. Paul wonders if the piston rings were wrong for the nickel cylinders Steve had installed. Unfortunately, he found a broken stud at 20 hours on his new cylinders. They hadn't properly torqued 4 of the bolts on his cylinders, reinforcing Mike's point that sometimes it's better to leave cylinders in order to avoid maintenance induced failures.

Chris Fontanella's book, "Overhaul Your Career: Seven Tips for Restoring Your Classic Model for New Roads" is such a great read for anyone entering in the later stages of their career and considering retirement.

In this sermon entitled "The Engine That Drives Behavior," Pastor Brandon unpacks the bold message of John the Baptist in Matthew 3:5–12, calling the nation of Israel to genuine repentance. But repentance wasn't just about sorrow or surface-level change—it was a radical call to change their thinking about the deeply ingrained teachings of Rabbinic Judaism. John confronts the false assumptions that had taken root: - That being Jewish guaranteed entrance into the Kingdom. - That the Messiah would affirm their traditions. - That external law-keeping was enough for righteousness. - That salvation could be earned or inherited by Israel through "the merits of the fathers." - That Gentiles had to convert to Judaism and keep the Noahic laws to be saved. - That there were multiple ways to be spiritually reborn and none of them included how Jesus explained it. John's call to repentance challenged Israel to abandon these theological distortions from the rabbis and recognize their need for Messiah—the Lamb of God. This repentance was not theoretical. In Luke 3:10–14, John outlines what true repentance looks like: justice, integrity, generosity, and contentment—right belief producing right behavior. True change doesn't start with action—it starts with conviction, with the truth renewing the mind. This message explores how belief (change of one's mind in relationship to truth) is the engine that drives godly behavior, and how embracing God's truth transforms not just what we believe—but how we live.

What happens to the speed of trading as technology advances? How do we move from automated button pressing machines to ultra-fast algorithms? What surprising impact does the rain have on the trading windows of financial markets?Donald MacKenzie is a professor of sociology at the University of Edinburgh and also the author of several books. His most recent works are Trading at the Speed of Light: How Ultrafast Algorithms Are Transforming Financial Markets and An Engine, Not a Camera: How Financial Models Shape Markets.Greg and Donald discuss the intersection of sociology and finance, exploring how financial models not only describe markets but also actively influence them. Donald explains the concept of performativity, where financial theories shape market behavior, and contrasts qualitative sociological methodologies with quantitative financial studies. Their conversation also touches on the history and impact of technologies and regulatory environments that have transformed financial trading, highlighting contributions from notable academics and instances of feedback loops between theory and practice.*unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:Chicago pits vs. algorithms28:34: For, say, investment management firms that have to buy and sell large portfolios of assets, there's little doubt that the modern world of automated trading has benefits, but it also has downsides. I mean, the benefit is, quite simply, of course, that automated systems are a lot cheaper than human beings in colored jackets running around in Chicago's pits or on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. But, at the same time, of course, if you are trying to sell or buy a very large position, then you do leave electronic traces that trading algorithms can pick up on and make money out of.Why financial models shapes markets like engine not camera04:31: An engine does things, it's not a camera—at least in our ordinary thinking about cameras, where you take the photograph and the landscape remains the same. An engine does stuff, it changes its environment.The power of shared signals in trading success34:11: The secret of my success is I realized quite early on that there were things—signals, as they would be called in the field—inputs to algorithms that everybody knew about and that everybody knew that everybody knew about. So it wasn't like I had an unsuccessful attempt, way back to research statistical arbitrage and dare nobody would tell you what exactly they were trading off of. But I think they're trading because everybody knows that if you're trading shares, then a move in the relevant index future is a very, very important signal. Everybody knows that, and everybody knows that. Everybody knows that.Finance beyond numbers, the human side of quantitative work02:30: Finance as an academic field, and indeed of course finance as a practice, is typically highly quantitative. And to get into the technology, quantitative work can be great, but to really get into it you've got to talk to people. Ideally, you want to go see things, so the methodology is more qualitative than quantitative, and it probably would not be the best of ideas.Show Links:Recommended Resources:William F.

This week we're diving into the wonderfully gloomy world of Emma Ruth Rundle. Or more specifically, we're having a bit of a discussion whether she's actually goth or not, what goth even means, and how it may be broader than some think. Musically, Chris thinks most of her catalogue is a bit pants but she has artistic integreity. Mark reckons she's brilliant. Emma Ruth Rundle has spent her career shape-shifting between projects like some sort of musical chameleon with commitment issues. From her early folk-gaze days with The Nocturnes to her brief stint with post-rock titans Red Sparrows. From the overlooked Marriages project to her increasingly experimental solo work. She's never been one to stay in her lane. The question is: does all this reinvention actually work, or is it just restless artist syndrome? We get deep into the weeds of her entire discography. Our main focus is 2016's "Marked for Death", which Mark insists is her masterpiece and Chris... well, Chris has opinions. We also tackle the thorny question of what actually constitutes "goth" in 2025. Spoiler: it's probably not what you think. Plus we discuss her genuinely unnerving experimental albums. And try to work out why Sargent House thought it was a good idea to send a recovering alcoholic to record alone in the desert. With unlimited booze.

Technology Reseller News Podcast with SmarTrak's Ted Lee, Live from Cisco Live 2025 “We truly are a revenue machine... Our partners are calling us saying, ‘I need more licenses.'” — Ted Lee, SmarTrak As competition in the channel ecosystem intensifies, Cisco partners are under pressure to retain and grow customer relationships. In this edition of the Technology Reseller News podcast, publisher Doug Green catches up with Ted Lee of SmarTrak at Cisco Live 2025 in San Diego, where Lee unveils how SmarTrak's AI-powered application is helping partners do exactly that—with measurable, dramatic results. Solving the Install Base Challenge At its core, SmarTrak is a platform designed to help Cisco partners manage the entire lifecycle of a customer's install base—from subscriptions to Enterprise Agreements (EAs) to lifecycle and incentive programs. What sets it apart, says Lee, is its ability to consolidate Cisco's data feeds—often spread across dozens of systems—into a unified global view that's not even available natively within Cisco. AI-Powered Opportunity Creation With the launch of SmarTrak v3, the company has enhanced its AI layer to deliver real-time insights into end-of-life, true forward, overconsumption, sustainability swaps, and budget forecasting. “We're helping people predict and budget five years of Cisco spend instantly,” said Lee. “Our partners are winning seven, even eight-figure deals just from a demo.” Award-Winning Innovation and ROI SmarTrak's impact hasn't gone unnoticed. The company was recently named the DSI Innovation Partner of the Year for the Americas East region, in recognition of how its platform fuels partner-led growth. One SmarTrak partner recently secured a $17 million win from a rival partner based on the insight provided by a demo alone. Lee emphasizes that SmarTrak is more than just software—it's a partner success engine. “We know that channel partners are margin-conscious,” said Lee. “So we focus not only on the application but on adoption—with video training, onboarding, one-on-one support, and forward-looking revenue mapping.” Built for Channel Adoption In an industry often plagued by underused tools, SmarTrak is built to be adopted and embraced. Its ease of use, combined with high-touch support, makes it a standout. “People don't just buy SmartTrack,” Lee says. “They use it—and they grow with it.” Learn More To discover how SmarTrak is helping Cisco partners increase retention, revenue, and renewal success, visit https://smartrak.ai/.
