Factory tours commonly come to mind for tourists looking to experience local landmarks. Boeing, Jelly Belly and Louisville Slugger all offer popular behind-the-scenes outings.

When God decides to record his first metal album, he will be disappointed to remember that Obliveon already recorded its masterpiece, Nemesis, in the Year of Our Lord, 1993. On its latest episode, Radical Research conducts a much-belated investigation of the first two albums by Montreal's most underrated sons, Obliveon. In the early '90s, the band treated a small-but-fanatical audience to highly-advanced, cutting edge, cosmic death thrash in the forms of 1990's From This Day Forward and the aforementioned Nemesis. Still unsung after all these years, Radical Research is here to set the record straight and shed light on one of underground metal's true greats. Note I: The “pointless, ridiculous 7 inch" Hunter mentions in this episode is this one, a Coroner covers split between his band, Canvas Solaris, and our phurry phriends phrom Pharaoh: https://www.discogs.com/release/2586288-Pharaoh-6-Canvas-Solaris-Tribute-To-Coroner Note II: Speaking of covers: Jeff mentions Agoraphobic Nosebleed's cover of Voivod's “Forgotten in Space.” He says the cover if about 6 minutes long, but it's actually a shorter 3:48. Don't trust Jeff on ANYTHING he says about Voivod… Note III: The Radical Research Patreon page is now set up and ready for your patronage.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1078: Today we're talking stormy shareholder meetings at Nissan, the EV factory tours drawing crowds in China, and the Gen Z men getting caught outsourcing their work to AI.Show Notes with links:Nissan's new CEO Ivan Espinosa faced intense scrutiny from investors at his first annual shareholders' meeting as he moves forward with a bold restructuring plan and ends Renault's board influence.Espinosa replaces ousted CEO Makoto Uchida, part of a March leadership overhaul aimed at reviving a struggling Nissan.Longtime partner Renault lost direct influence as its board reps, including Chairman Jean-Dominique Senard, were removed—marking a clear shift toward Nissan independence.Shareholders grilled Espinosa on governance, executive pay, and the automaker's U.S. and Japan strategy.Nissan plans to cut 20,000 jobs, shut 7 factories, and save ¥500B ($3.46B) by March 2028.It projects a ¥200B ($1.38B) Q1 loss, including ¥450B ($3B) in expected U.S. tariff hits.One attendee described the Q&A as “stormy,” saying Espinosa was “smooth and fluent… but equivocated without substance.”EV factory tours have become a cultural sensation in China, with tens of thousands scrambling each month for a glimpse behind the robotic curtain of brands like Xiaomi and Nio.Xiaomi Auto's factory receives over 27,000 applications per night for limited tour slots, offering racetrack test drives and now souvenirs.Nio drew 130,000 visitors last year; several other automakers are jumping on board.What began as three monthly tours at Xiaomi has expanded to weekday and weekend offerings for over 1,100 visitors.Visitors describe vast facilities with “only a handful of workers” as robots handle most of the labor.“It offers a chance to not only see the production line up close, but also experience the human side of the brand,” said analyst Freya Zhang.A new survey reveals that while AI boosts Gen Z productivity, a surprising number—especially men—are bending the rules by passing off AI work as their own.40% of Gen Z men admitted to submitting AI-generated work as their own; only 20% of women did the same.Nearly 1 in 3 Gen Z workers have knowingly broken company policy using AI and 30% say they've created fake work with AI to appear more productive.42% of Gen Z men say they worry AI could replace them at work—compared to just 33% of women.23% of men said they couldn't do their job without AI; only 14% of women felt that way.Eva Chan, career expert at Resume Genius, “The concern is workers start outsourcing not just tasks, but their judgment, confidence, and even their voice.”Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

On this episode I'm joined by Lucy Davis, my co-founder at Factory, as we unpack the messy reality of AI in commerce – beyond the hype and into the hard questions.We get into whether traditional discovery processes still matter when AI can simulate, generate, and iterate at speed. Are briefs still useful? Is AI discovery even a thing? Or is it just a shiny wrapper on what strategy teams already do?We talk about sustainability in AI, how brands like L'Oréal are experimenting with Nvidia to create more personalised beauty experiences, and why so much of what's sold as intelligent automation is still smoke and mirrors. You'll hear why smaller brands might actually be better placed to move fast, where AI is helping with internal efficiencies, and when it's just adding noise.If you've ever found yourself wondering whether an AI tool is a real unlock or just a pitch deck promise, this one's for you.This podcast is brought to you by our friends at Omnisend.

The Oregonian reported that chipmaker Intel plans to lay off up to 20% of its factory workforce, citing an internal email the publication says was verified by four employees. According to the report, Intel informed its employees that the cuts would begin taking effect in July and would impact factories worldwide.Intel reportedly employed about 109,000 workers at the end of 2024, but it remains unclear how many work in Intel Foundry, the company's factory division. The unit's roles range from factory floor technicians to specialized researchers. Intel eliminated approximately 15,000 jobs last year through attrition, buyouts, early retirement offers and layoffs. However, according to The Oregonian, Chief Technology and Operations Officer Naga Chandrasekaran stated in the email that this round of job cuts will involve eliminating specific roles and levels, assessing skills for remaining positions and “some hard decisions around our project investments.”

In this heartfelt episode of the Kankakee Podcast, we're back for a night of powerful storytelling recorded live at The Venue Lounge in Downtown Kankakee. It's the June 2025 edition of Yarn Factory Listeners, where community members gather to share and celebrate the stories that make Kankakee unique.The evening kicks off with Terry Streetman, whose moving account of courage, resilience, and the power of queer joy highlights why he chose to call Kankakee home. Terry recalls a harrowing experience at a drag brunch in Ohio, the threat faced by his community, and the unwavering solidarity and love that triumphed in the face of hatred. His journey ends with discovering acceptance and connection within Kankakee's vibrant LGBTQ community, inspiring all to carry forward the spirit of joyful defiance.Next, Jacob Cantrell steps up to deliver a raw and deeply personal reflection on grief, loss, and healing, recounting the tragic death of his older brother and the lifelong imprint it left. Jacob's brave vulnerability resonates throughout the room, reminding us of the unseen ways we influence each other's lives and the importance of connection through even our hardest moments.Brooke Hildebrand shares a fond and funny exploration of family ties, celebrating the unique shorthand, inside jokes, and enduring bonds that only cousins can share. Her stories of Yonka family chaos, comfort, and camaraderie spark laughter and nostalgia, shining a light on the joy of lasting relationships and the value of “weak ties” in our personal networks.After intermission, local favorite Van Johnson lights up the stage with a story of sibling “hazing” gone hilariously awry, bringing down the house with tales of childhood mischief, inventive payback, and the unbreakable bonds formed over a deck of cards.The night closes with acclaimed writer Taylor Ledding-McMaster, who turns an act of hate into a force for good. Taylor recounts the anonymous, bigoted letter she received after officiating her best friend's same-sex wedding and sharing the joy in her weekly “A Tailor Made Life” column. In true Kankakee fashion, Taylor responds not with anger but with creativity and community fundraising—turning “the devil delights in you” into a viral sticker that raises money for the Trevor Project and the Kankakee LGBTQ Network.Tune in for a tapestry of laughter, tears, resilience, and pride—woven together in a way that only a small town like Kankakee can.

Sourcing expert Isaac Hetzroni, aka @thesourcingguy, shares tips on China, AI, factory tours, and finding top suppliers. Essential insights for smarter e-commerce strategies.   Join us as we explore the dynamic world of sourcing with Isaac Hetzroni, aka @thesourcingguy, a rising influencer known for his insightful content on YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram. Isaac, though lesser-known in the Amazon space, shares his extensive experience in manufacturing, having grown up in the industry with his family's apparel and electronics factories. He provides valuable insights on whether businesses should look beyond China for sourcing, and shares practical tips on understanding product costs and minimizing risks. Isaac's engaging social media presence brings these topics to life, making sourcing strategies both informative and entertaining.   We'll also examine the complexities and misconceptions surrounding sourcing from China, where advanced infrastructure and a skilled workforce have cemented its status as a manufacturing powerhouse. Despite pushes for diversification, replicating China's efficiency in other countries presents significant challenges. Apparel manufacturing emerges as a more adaptable sector for relocation, yet the transition is fraught with logistical hurdles. The discussion extends to global manufacturing trends and China's impact on the U.S. market, including the rise of Factory to Consumer strategies and the role of AI in overcoming language barriers, all of which are reshaping global trade relationships.   In this episode, we emphasize the importance of building strong business relationships, especially when dealing with Chinese suppliers. Personal connections often intertwine with professional dealings, and trade shows play a crucial role in maintaining these relationships. We explore strategies for finding the best suppliers beyond platforms like Alibaba, using tools such as Import Yeti and trade shows to discover high-quality factories. Additionally, we highlight the importance of quality control and the advantages of diversifying supply chains to new regions. Tune in to gain insights into effective sourcing strategies, quality control, and the evolving landscape of global manufacturing.
