On November 20th, 2025, the EPA and the Army Corps of Engineers proposed a rule to define what “waters of the United States” (WOTUS) means under the Clean Water Act. This is yet another effort to finally provide a durable WOTUS rule. Fortunately, the 2023 Supreme Court opinion in Sackett v. Environmental Protection Agency provided much-needed clarity for the agencies when determining what are regulable waters. Have the agencies developed a proposed rule that is consistent with Sackett? How have they defined key terms like “relatively permanent” and “continuous surface connection” and what wetlands would be regulated?The public comment period for this rule ended on January 5th, 2026, with a final rule likely to come out in the coming months. Please join our panel of experts as they detail what is in the rule, provide analysis and perspective on the rule, and explain what changes the agencies should make for any final rule.Featuring:Prof. Pat Parenteau, Professor of Law Emeritus, Vermont Law SchoolJohn Paul Woodley, Principal, Advantus Strategies, LLCDamien Schiff, Senior Attorney, Pacific Legal Foundation(Moderator) Daren Bakst, Director of the Center for Energy and Environment and Senior Fellow, Competitive Enterprise Institute

i6 Group is connecting the fragmented aviation fuel ecosystem-airlines, fuel suppliers, and service providers-through a real-time digital platform that eliminates paper-based processes at over 260 airports worldwide. After launching with British Airways at Heathrow in 2015 and recently closing their Series B with German PE firm Itrium, i6 is proving that even heavily regulated, risk-averse industries can achieve step-function operational improvements through software. In this episode of BUILDERS, Alex Mattos, CEO and Managing Director of i6 Group, breaks down how they navigated decade-long enterprise sales cycles, leveraged strategic customers as Series A investors, and are now building toward profitability to maximize exit optionality. Topics Discussed: The surprising analog nature of aviation fuel operations despite advanced aircraft technology i6's pivot from defense fuel system testing to commercial aviation digitization The multi-party fuel ecosystem: airlines, suppliers, service providers, and logistics chains Strategic approach to landing British Airways and Virgin Atlantic as launch customers Fundamental differences between European fuel optimization vs. US supply chain management models Multi-stakeholder enterprise sales involving fuel teams, flight ops, pilot unions, and CFOs Strategic Series A with customer-investors: British Airways, JetBlue, Shell, and World Fuel Services Series B transition from strategic to PE backing focused on scaling operations and go-to-market Network effects driving compounding value as airport coverage expands Path to self-sustainability and exit strategy considerations GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Target brand DNA, not just budget, for early enterprise customers: i6 deliberately approached Virgin Atlantic because of Richard Branson's reputation for "being entrepreneurial, taking a risk, doing something different." This wasn't naive brand worship—it was strategic targeting based on organizational risk tolerance. When selling complex infrastructure to enterprises pre-product-market fit, a prospect's innovation track record matters more than their budget size. Map your early pipeline based on cultural willingness to partner with startups, not just technical fit. Invest in non-paying reference customers as currency for tier-one deals: Virgin Atlantic became i6's first operational deployment without payment. This wasn't charity—it was strategic capital allocation. The working reference at Virgin directly unlocked British Airways: "we turned up, demonstrated what we were doing...we've done this trial with Virgin and here's the results, and it went really well." For founders selling to conservative enterprises, one live deployment at a credible brand is worth more than a dozen pitch decks. Budget 6-12 months of runway for strategic pilots that generate proof points, not revenue. Create forcing functions with specific follow-up commitments: When British Airways said "if you're still here in six months, come back," most founders would hear soft rejection. Alex heard a calendar commitment and returned "to the day" with results. This precision signaling—we take your requirements seriously enough to track them to the day—separates serious vendors from tire-kickers. When enterprises set conditional bars, treat them as binding contracts and demonstrate execution discipline through exact follow-through. Position for market disruption by maintaining warm enterprise relationships: i6 benefited when an incumbent competitor liquidated, creating urgent procurement needs at British Airways. But luck favors the prepared—they had already established credibility through their Virgin deployment. Maintain enterprise relationships even when deals seem stalled. In concentrated B2B markets, competitive exits, budget releases, and trigger events happen regularly. Your position in the consideration set when disruption hits determines whether you capture the opportunity. Engineer word-of-mouth in concentrated industries through excellence, not marketing: Four months after Heathrow deployment, Dubai airport approached i6 unsolicited: "we've heard great things." In the aviation fuel community—which Alex describes as "surprisingly small"—exceptional execution travels faster than any outbound motion. This changes GTM strategy: in concentrated industries, over-invest in customer success and operational excellence at early deployments rather than spreading thin across many accounts. Your first customers are your sales team. Segment GTM by operational model, not just geography or company size: i6 discovered European airlines optimize for fuel efficiency and real-time decisions, while US airlines (controlling their own supply networks since the late 1980s) prioritize supply chain visibility: "how much fuel did we put in the plane, how much have we had delivered, how much have we got left." These aren't feature preferences—they're fundamentally different jobs-to-be-done driven by market structure. Don't assume global enterprises have unified needs. Segment by operational model and regulatory environment, then customize messaging and roadmap accordingly. Stage investor expertise to match company evolution, not just valuation milestones: Series A brought strategic investors who were actual users (British Airways, JetBlue, Shell, World Fuel Services) for product validation and network access. Series B brought PE firm Itrium for "scaling the business...building and growing our sales and revenue teams." This wasn't opportunistic—it was deliberate staging of capital sources to match capability gaps. Don't optimize fundraising purely on valuation or dilution. Map your next 18-month bottleneck (product validation vs. operational scaling vs. market expansion) and raise from investors who've solved that specific problem. Build for profitability to control your exit timing and terms: Alex's goal is avoiding Series C entirely: "we build and establish a fully self-sustaining business...the business becomes fully sustainable in the next couple of years." This isn't conservatism—it's strategic optionality. Reaching profitability eliminates the forced march toward subsequent rounds, letting you choose between IPO or M&A based on market conditions rather than cash position. For infrastructure plays with long implementation cycles, factor sustainability into your growth model early, even if it moderates topline growth rates. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

A shocked city, a careful army, and a plateau that decides everything. We follow the tense weeks after Athens' first win outside Syracuse, when momentum gave way to method. Nicias, often branded cautious, makes a hard strategic choice: pause late in the season, refill the coffers, request cavalry, and prepare for a siege that can actually hold under pressure. Meanwhile, Syracuse hears Hermocrates at last. His blunt case—discipline over bluster, reform over blame—shrinks a muddled command, tightens training, and sends envoys to Corinth and Sparta to turn a local crisis into a panhellenic cause.The political map of Sicily comes into sharp focus as Camarina keeps a careful distance, Naxos and Regium quietly help Athens, and both sides court allies who can tip supplies, harbors, and morale. Then the war's center of gravity jumps across the sea. Alcibiades escapes and arrives in Sparta with insider detail and a plan to exploit Athenian overreach. His advice sparks two decisive moves: dispatching Gylippus to steady Syracuse and fortifying Decelea to bleed Attica. Intelligence, timing, and audacity reshape the conflict more than any single skirmish could.Through winter 415–414 BCE, the Athenians work with rare clarity. Catana becomes an operating base; ships are refit; scouts trace Syracuse's walls and water. The conclusion is simple and stark: win the Epipolae Heights or lose the siege before it begins. Spring brings speed. A quiet sail, a rapid landing, and Lamachus' night march seize Euryelus, the gateway to the plateau. Engineers mark lines. Syracuse counters. For a moment, the expedition reaches its high watermark, the city nearly within an encircling wall. But with Gylippus on the horizon and a reformed Syracuse ready to contest every trench, the hard road truly begins. Support the show

Is the AI SOC a reality, or just vendor hype? In this episode, Antoinette Stevens (Principal Security Engineer at Ramp) joins Ashish to dissect the true state of AI in detection engineering.Antoinette shares her experience building detection program from scratch, explaining why she doesn't trust AI to close alerts due to hallucinations and faulty logic . We explore the "engineering-led" approach to detection, moving beyond simple hunting to building rigorous testing suites for detection-as-code .We discuss the shrinking entry-level job market for security roles , why software engineering skills are becoming non-negotiable , and the critical importance of treating AI as a "force multiplier, not your brain".Guest Socials - ⁠⁠⁠Antoinette's LinkedinPodcast Twitter - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@CloudSecPod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠If you want to watch videos of this LIVE STREAMED episode and past episodes - Check out our other Cloud Security Social Channels:-⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cloud Security Podcast- Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cloud Security Newsletter ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠If you are interested in AI Security, you can check out our sister podcast -⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ AI Security Podcast⁠Questions asked:(00:00) Introduction(02:25) Who is Antoinette Stevens?(04:10) What is an "Engineering-Led" Approach to Detection?

In Episode 309 of The Business Development Podcast, Kelly Kennedy sits down with fellow Rockstar Raphael Cervan, a longtime listener from France whose journey is anything but ordinary. Born in Brazil and now based in France, Raphael spent nearly two decades as an aeronautical engineer at Airbus, working on landmark programs like the A380 and A320 while leading global teams at the highest level of technical excellence. But as his career advanced and he became a father, Raphael began asking deeper questions about responsibility, values, and the kind of world he was helping to build. That reflection ultimately led him to walk away from a prestigious leadership role in aerospace to pursue something more meaningful.This conversation goes far beyond career moves. Raphael shares how discovering The Business Development Podcast helped him transition from engineer to entrepreneur, reframing business development as a human, values-driven discipline rather than a transactional one. He opens up about founding Sunbiose, a company focused on decentralized, community-owned renewable energy systems designed to strengthen local economies, democracy, and social connection. This episode is a powerful exploration of legacy, courage, and what it really means to use your skills in service of something bigger than yourself, and it's a reminder that business development done right can genuinely change lives.Key Takeaways:1. Career success means very little if it conflicts with your values, and clarity often comes when you ask what your children or future self will think of the choices you made.2. Becoming a parent has a way of sharpening perspective and forcing honest questions about responsibility, impact, and legacy.3. Technical excellence is powerful, but it becomes transformative when it's applied to solving human and societal problems, not just optimizing systems.4. Walking away from a prestigious role is not failure when it's done intentionally in pursuit of deeper purpose and alignment.5. Business development is not manipulation or pressure, it is a human process of understanding problems and offering real solutions.6. Engineers and technical leaders can succeed in business when they reframe selling as service rather than persuasion.7. Entrepreneurship is less about the destination and more about the growth, self-knowledge, and responsibility developed along the way.8. Systems matter, whether in aviation, energy, or business, and poorly designed systems create risks that values-based leadership must address.9. Decentralization and community ownership can create not only economic value but stronger social bonds and shared accountability.10. Legacy is built through action, not intention, and doing nothing is often the most dangerous decision of all.Get in touch with RaphaelIf this episode resonated and you're exploring opportunities in decentralized energy, sustainability, or impact-driven entrepreneurship, Raphael is actively open to conversations. He is currently seeking strategic partners and aligned investors who share a long-term vision for community-owned, decentralized energy systems.If you're interested in collaborating, partnering, or learning more about the Sunbiose model, Raphael welcomes thoughtful outreach.Email: raphael@sunbiose.fr LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/raphaelcervan/2026 Title Sponsor

Send us a textIn this special episode of Take It To The Board, the podcast hits the road for its first-ever live taping at the Cooperator Trade Show & Expo in Fort Lauderdale. Host Donna DiMaggio Berger is joined by professional engineer Evan Swaysland, president of Swaysland Professional Engineering Consultants, for a clear-eyed discussion of Florida's mandatory milestone inspections and Structural Integrity Reserve Studies (SIRS)—and what they really mean for the safety and longevity of multifamily buildings.Donna and Evan break down the shift from visual inspections to comprehensive, post-Surfside evaluations, explaining why many aging buildings trigger Phase Two inspections and what “immediate” repairs look like in real-world practice. They unpack common trouble spots like balconies, waterproofing systems, and incidental damage during restoration, while offering practical guidance on reading inspection reports, budgeting with SIRS, and moving efficiently from inspections to repairs.The conversation also explores emerging issues, including coastal subsidence research, construction-related vibration risks, and how monitoring and documentation can protect both buildings and legal interests. Listeners will learn how to hire the right engineer, scope projects intelligently, and focus on preventive maintenance—not just reactive fixes. Conversation Highlights:How the industry has shifted from viewing inspections as a reactive measure to embracing a more preventative and predictive model of building safetyThe top three misconceptions boards or residents commonly have about structural inspectionsThe first structural conditions an engineer typically evaluates, and what signals whether a building has been well maintained or neglectedWarning signs that require monitoring, and urgent conditions that rise to the level of life safety concernsThe typical cost range for a Milestone Inspection, and which factors most significantly influence that cost (i.e. building size, age, location, and structural complexity)What does a high-quality Milestone Inspection involve that most directors or unit owners may not fully appreciate?Differences between a Milestone Inspection and a SIRS Are the current Milestone Inspection and SIRS frameworks adequate to identify subsidence-related risks, or do policies and protocols need to evolve?Key differences between “settling,” “sinking,” and “sinkholes” from an engineering perspectiveEarly signs of subsidence or sinkhole activity and what remediation typically involvesHow volunteer boards can become better, more informed consumers when selecting an engineering firmBONUS: If there is one essential truth about structural safety every Florida board should understand, what is it?Related Links:Podcast: Everything You Need to Know About Concrete Restoration Projects with Alessandra Bianchini, of Carousel Development and Restoration Inc.Resource: Swaysland Professional Engineering Consultants

If you've ever wondered what “skibidi rizz” means or why kids are so obsessed with the number 67, Adam Aleksic wrote a book on it. Aleksic, better known at @etymologynerd online, is a 24-year-old linguist known for his enlightening and entertaining videos on the origin of words. In this episode, the two Adams discuss Aleksic's new book Algospeak and the ways in which the internet is shaping the way we communicate both on and offline. Aleksic sheds light on the origins of the seemingly meaningless “brainrot” memes popular with Gen Z and Gen Alpha internet users, and reveals the complex and (sometimes) profound insights they have to offer about culture, the transmission of ideas and information, and how our access to language can change the way we see the world.Host & GuestAdam Grant (Instagram: @adamgrant | LinkedIn: @adammgrant | Website: https://adamgrant.net/)Adam Aleksic (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube: @etymologynerd | Website: https://www.etymologynerd.com/)LinksAlgospeak by Adam Aleksic (https://www.amazon.com/Algospeak-Social-Transforming-Future-Language/dp/0593804074)Follow TED!

You've done gigs where nothing goes according to plan, but this episode reminds you that chaos is often the classroom. From sleeping on road cases at the Puerto Rican Day Parade to riding a flatbed packed with servo-driven subs that overwhelmed even earplugs and shooting cans, you hear how real-world pressure forges real skills. Mike deAlmeida walks you through learning to roll with it, figuring out systems on the fly before tools like Smaart were common, and walking into unknown gigs where the unknown singer/songwriter turns out to be Shawn Colvin. The lesson is clear: when you don't know the band, communication is everything. Ask how they sound, listen closely, and remember that for that moment, you are part of the band. You're playing the “mixing keyboard” today, so Always Be Performing. As the night wears on, the room changes and so must you. Heat, humidity, and ear fatigue quietly shift the mix, especially in the highs and high-mids, and Mike explains why gradual adjustments beat drastic moves every time. You're reminded to watch the show, not just the meters, and to listen first before using tools like Smaart to confirm what your ears already know. From sweating out microphones and treating them like EQ devices to protecting your hearing with custom molds, active earplugs, and smart exposure management, this episode ties craft, tech, and longevity together. Layer in legendary Celebrity Week stories, the Van Halen M&Ms lesson, and Beach Boys theatrics, and you're left with one guiding principle: mix a good show, every time, because that's how careers last. 00:00:00 Gig Gab 517 – Monday, January 19th, 2026 January 19th: Tin Can Day Guest co-host: Mike deAlmeida, Program Director, Audio Engineering at University of Hartford NAMM coming up!

Five years ago, Kelsey Hightower helped me find my voice in tech as the guest for my fifth podcast episode. Today, the man who taught the world Kubernetes and became a legend for his live demos returns for a conversation that goes far beyond infrastructure and code.Now retired-ish, Kelsey has transitioned into a new chapter. In this episode, we explore what it means to be not only a senior engineer, but also a "senior human" in an industry obsessed with speed. Kelsey shares his unique perspective on:Real vs. Artificial Intelligence: Why we must stop ignoring real intelligence and focus on providing humans with the same context and clarity we give to AI.The Future of Engineering: Why your value will shift from writing code to making stylistic, high-impact decisions as AI levels the technical playing field.Impact Over Activity: How to stop being a "busybot" and start asking the difficult questions about why we are building in the first place.The Senior Human Unit Test: Building communities with integrity, leading with empathy, and staying balanced in a world that always wants more.Whether you are just getting into your career or a seasoned veteran, this episode is a masterclass in curiosity, craft, and the art of staying grounded while building the future.Podcast LinksWatch: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@alexa_griffith⁠⁠⁠⁠Read: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://alexasinput.substack.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Listen:⁠⁠ https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/alexagriffith/⁠⁠More: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/alexagriffith⁠⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://alexagriffith.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexa-griffith/⁠⁠⁠⁠Find out more about the guest at:Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/kelseyhightower.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kelsey-hightower-849b342b1GitHub Profile: https://github.com/kelseyhightowerKubernetes the Hard Way: https://github.com/kelseyhightower/kubernetes-the-hard-wayNo Code (The minimalist project): https://github.com/kelseyhightower/nocodeKubernetes: Up and Running (Book): https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/kubernetes-up-and/9781492046523/Chapters00:00 Introduction and Background01:10 Transitioning from Engineer to Tech Philosopher04:00 The Importance of Being a Senior Human07:23 AI's Impact on People Skills10:12 The Future of Engineering in an AI World15:04 Navigating the AI Shift21:21 Finding Impact Over Activity25:47 Creating Meaningful Products29:57 The Power of Listening and Connection35:21 The Importance of Listening in Discussions35:55 Embracing the Learning Journey36:58 Understanding Imposter Syndrome39:33 Creating Supportive Learning Environments40:31 Learning in Public and Sharing Experiences41:31 Finding Your Own Voice43:26 The Power of Emotion in Presentations47:29 Crafting Engaging Stories48:40 Improvisation in Public Speaking55:10 The Evolution of Presentation Styles01:03:28 Legacy and Impact in the Tech Community

What Today's Data Says About Tomorrow's Restaurant   Episode Description: What if "flat" traffic isn't bad news — but a wake-up call? In this episode of Restauranttopia, Brad and David break down fresh industry insights from a recent Circana (formerly NPD) foodservice conference and translate national data into real-world strategies for independent restaurant operators.   From shifting consumer behavior and third-party delivery fatigue to protein-forward menus, mocktails, gaming culture, and the rise of fast casual and fine dining, this conversation cuts through the noise and focuses on what actually matters as we head toward 2026.   If you're wondering how to win in a "flat is the new normal" environment, this episode is packed with ideas you can actually use.   Key Topics Covered: Why restaurant traffic is expected to remain flat through 2027 — and why that's an opportunity How consumer spending habits are changing (and what they're still willing to splurge on) What the rise of gaming, influencers, and digital culture means for food marketing Why fast casual and fine dining are winning while mid-scale struggles Protein-forward menus, healthier labeling, and the impact of GLP-1 drugs Mocktails, alcohol shifts, and smarter beverage profitability Third-party delivery fatigue and the return of on-premise dining Menu innovation: when to cut underperforming items and when to evolve Creating experiences worth choosing when guests dine out less often Actionable Takeaways for Operators: Double down on what makes your restaurant unique Engineer menus for weekday speed and weekend splurges Treat takeout and pickup guests like dine-in customers Use data — not emotion — to make menu decisions Lean into value and innovation (yes, both) Why This Matters: When guests are dining out less often, every visit has to count. This episode helps you rethink how to attract, serve, and retain today's more selective customer.

Most business owners are sitting here in early January without any real plan for 2026 because they're still trying to close out 2025. Steve makes the case for one single measurable outcome that determines a successful year while Brad pushes back with the reality of "we just want more" thinking. Using gross margin improvement as an example, we walk through how to get every department aligned on the same goal, why supplier accountability is an untapped opportunity, and how to turn objectives into 12-week strategies. We also tackle why leadership is hard when you actually have to make decisions, how the Hoshin planning system creates 81 squares of complexity nobody needs, and why squirrels with shiny objects will always try to derail your focus unless pet projects directly support your singular goal.Highlights:Why "we just want more" or "we want better" fails without defining what that actually means in measurable terms.The trust but verify approach to supplier invoices especially around tariff line items that might have been passed through five times.How employees come back with excuses about SAP tickets and IT problems when you give them nine goals instead of one clear focus.The danger of operating in a one-year vacuum where beneficial three-year projects get killed because they hurt this year's numbers.Why amazing things happen when you make actual decisions instead of living in "I'll think about it" mode that keeps everyone guessing.Subscribe to Blue Collar BS for more real conversations about running and growing your business.

Why do smart, curious people join cults?  JVN is joined by investigative journalist Ellen Huet, who spent years interviewing more than 125 former members to expose how a movement built around empowerment, intimacy, and “sexual wellness”  spiraled into coercion, manipulation, and abuse of power. Together, we break down how wellness culture can blur boundaries, why charismatic leaders are so effective, and how language around healing and liberation can be weaponized. They explore what OneTaste and Orgasmic Meditation (O.M.) actually promised, how social pressure and taboo minimization kept people trapped, and what finally led to an FBI investigation and federal trial.  Most importantly, we talk about why smart, curious people join cults, how to spot red flags before it's too late, and what to do if someone you love might be caught in one.

What if everything we are told about ancient civilizations is completely backwards?In this mind-expanding conversation, engineer and ancient mysteries researcher Tyler Engle breaks down why the ancient sites like the pyramids weren't tombs, they were time capsules. Messages written in stone about the nature of reality they knew their descendants would need to remember. Tyler explains how the recently discovered massive shafts beneath the Giza pyramids were possibly a planetary-scale energy battery and consciousness synchronization system.We explore the mystery of how ancient structures were built with precision impossible even with today's engineering. Tyler reveals technology being developed right now that transmutes matter through quantum geometry, and how this might explain what the ancients were really doing. We dive into plasma as a potentially intelligent life form, the hidden meaning behind crop circles that encode advanced physics, and why indigenous "mythology" about thunder beings might be more literal than we think.Tyler brings an engineer's rigor to topics that usually live in the realm of speculation, showing how ancient wisdom aligns perfectly with cutting-edge physics and our emerging understanding of consciousness as a fundamental force in the universe. We also get into why the educational system was designed the way it was, how to redesign it around hermetic principles, and why some people wake up to these ideas while others fall into traps like flat earth theory.This isn't just about the past—it's about remembering a technology of consciousness that could fundamentally change our future. If you've ever felt like there's something we're missing about how reality actually works, this conversation will give you a framework to understand it. A framework that might be necessary for our very survival. | Tyler Engle |►Website | https://bassforge.us/►Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/bassforge.us/►Tiktok | https://www.tiktok.com/@bassforge.us?lang=en►YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/@BassForge_us►Check Out Tyler Engle's new book Cryptex Esoterica: Divergent Science of the Ancient World | https://shorturl.at/1XdgJ►Check out Tyler and Laurie Engle's new books for kids based on the 7 Hermetic Principles | https://shorturl.at/9pihuThis episode is sponsored by►Metal Mark Golden Collectable Art |  https://mtlmrk.com/►Korrect Energy | https://korrectlife.com/| Aubrey Marcus |►Website | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://bit.ly/2GesYqi ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠►Instagram | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://bit.ly/2BlfCEO ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠►Facebook | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://bit.ly/2F4nBZk ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠►X |  ⁠⁠⁠http://bit.ly/2BlGBAdAd⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the Aubrey Marcus newsletter:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.aubreymarcus.com/pages/email⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠To partner with the Aubrey Marcus Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the Aubrey Marcus podcast:iTunes | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://apple.co/2lMZRCn ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify |⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://spoti.fi/2EaELZO ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Stitcher | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://bit.ly/2G8ccJt ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠IHeartRadio | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ihr.fm/3CiV4x3 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
