    If you've ever thought, “What's the worst that could happen?” — today's episode of The Rizzuto Show answers that with: a Lego and a 75-inch QLED.We kick things off with a listener email that spirals faster than a toddler with building blocks. A military family makes new friends. Their kid launches a Lego. The Lego meets TV. The TV loses. Suddenly it's a $1,200 moral dilemma involving Amazon orders, Facebook Marketplace dreams, and whether you're entitled to the “damaged goods” after offering to replace it. Is it doing the right thing… or financing someone else's home upgrade? We debate it like the totally qualified life coaches we are. Spoiler: don't bring your kids anywhere. Ever.Then we dive headfirst into the latest dating insanity lighting up TikTok: Alpine Divorce — where someone literally leaves their partner stranded on a hike. Yes, this is apparently a thing. Yes, we're concerned. And yes, King Scott briefly considers whether he would've tried this in a past relationship. From narcissistic punishment hikes to ghostlighting (ghosting + gaslighting = modern romance), this comedy podcast unpacks the absolute circus that is dating in 2026.And because love clearly needed one more hit, divorce lawyers of Reddit reveal the pettiest reasons people filed for divorce. We're talking:• Asking how someone takes their coffee for seven years• Smacking lips while eating• $42,000 spent on psychic hotlines• Monitoring toilet paper usage like it's a federal auditSomewhere in here we accidentally hold a memorial for Ms. Cleo, question which professions cheat the most (uniforms… looking at you), and discover that apparently pharmacists are the gold standard of loyalty. Farmers too. Accountants are out here winning quietly.It's messy. It's chaotic. It's oddly therapeutic. It's exactly what a daily comedy podcast should be — friends arguing about nonsense while occasionally stumbling into real-life wisdom.If you came for thoughtful relationship guidance… lower your expectations immediately.If you came for laughs, weird news, and St. Louis morning show chaos — welcome home.This is The Rizzuto Show — your favorite daily comedy podcast where we solve nothing but talk about everything.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Today's daily comedy episode proves two things: kids are expensive, and karaoke should absolutely require a permit.We kick things off with an email that had the entire studio arguing like a courtroom drama sponsored by Fisher-Price. A military family's kid chucks a Lego at a friend's 75-inch QLED TV (because of course it was a 75-inch QLED), leaving a tiny but permanent “oops” mark. They do the right thing and offer to replace it — $1,200 later — only to find out the “damaged” TV is getting relocated to the daughter's room. Wait… what? Is that justice? Is that capitalism? Is that just the cost of letting children exist in your home? Rizz, Moon, and King Scott debate responsibility, friendship, and whether the real solution is simply moving to a new town and changing your identity.Then we dive into the wildest dating trend we've heard in a while: “Alpine Divorce.” It sounds like a seasonal IPA. It is not. It's apparently when someone strands their partner in the wilderness as punishment. Romantic! Nothing says “I love you” like abandoning someone mid-hike because they forgot a water bottle. We unpack the psychology behind it and question how this is even a thing. Ghosting? Bad. Ghost-lighting? Worse. Alpine Divorce? Congratulations, you're on a watch list.And then — because we care about the people — we establish the official list of karaoke songs that should be considered arrestable offenses. Whitney Houston? Jail. Bohemian Rhapsody? Straight to court. “My Heart Will Go On”? Emotional felony. The crew breaks down the crimes, the charges, and the sentencing guidelines for murdering everyone's ears at your local bar. It's the kind of public service announcement only a true daily comedy show would dare to provide.Between parenting disasters, dating red flags, and musical war crimes, this episode has everything you expect from your favorite St. Louis daily comedy chaos factory.You've been warned.

    Lai-Ling Su: What Scrum Masters Must Do More of in 2026—Think Like a Business Owner Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "Success is so contextual. And I think the definitions and measurements of success also change over time. So, only you can definitively say what success is at any given time and how to appropriately measure it for your situation." - Lai-Ling Su   Lai-Ling frames success for Scrum Masters around what she'd love to see more of in 2026: smart, strategic, and commercial decision-making. She observes a distinct gap in the business landscape—too few people are making decisions that balance customer value, revenues, expenses, and long-term sustainability.  This could mean reducing SKUs to enhance operational flow and reduce burnout, investing in change management from day one of a transformation, or cutting unused software licenses to save a colleague's job or fund product innovation. To help Scrum Masters develop this capability, Lai-Ling puts them in the shoes of a business owner—whether through simulations, shadowing business leaders, or pairing with product owners to understand the business side of products beyond just the build side.  She emphasizes the difference between learning strategy through theory (like an MBA) versus learning it through actually operating a business, where consequences are real and immediate.   Self-reflection Question: When did you last consider how a decision in your domain impacts the broader commercial viability of your organization? Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: LEGO Serious Play Lai-Ling loves using LEGO for deeply reflective retrospectives, and she's a certified LEGO Serious Play facilitator. The approach works beautifully for tender and courageous conversations because building with LEGO does several things simultaneously: it's fun, the physical act of building helps process and articulate thoughts you didn't have words for, and it depersonalizes what's said because participants talk about a physical object rather than directly about people. You don't need expensive certified kits—just grab basic bricks from a local shop, pose a reflective question, and let people build.  Lai-Ling notes that her best retrospectives have often been the most deeply uncomfortable ones for participants, because of how much personal and emotional truth emerges when you create that safe space for constructive dialogue. The kinetic and visual elements help crystallize ideas that would otherwise not come out so easily.   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

    How Dextall builds trust in construction | Aurimas Sabulis

    Category Visionaries

    Play Episode Listen Later Feb 26, 2026 24:02


    Dextall is attacking a structural inefficiency in construction: the 3-year design coordination cycle that precedes every mid-rise building, combined with the chaotic on-site execution that follows. Founded by Aurimas Sabulis after years running a commercial window company and witnessing construction site dysfunction firsthand, Dextall is building what Aurimas calls a "prefab operating system"—software that connects architectural design directly to factory production of building exteriors. In a market where less than 1% of U.S. mid-rise projects use prefab (versus 75% in Scandinavia), Dextall is bridging the 3-4 year gap between design inception and approved drawings while manufacturing building components that arrive on-site as "Lego blocks." In this episode, Aurimas shares the hard lessons learned from building in construction's unforgiving risk environment. Topics Discussed: Targeting the 6-40 story sweet spot: steel, concrete, and mass timber construction where prefab delivers maximum value (below 6 stories is wood frame; above 40 enters different glass-box typology) The reality of U.S. prefab penetration: 99% of projects in Dextall's pipeline would go traditional route without them Why the physical product stayed constant from day one while software took multiple failed iterations The expensive lesson: building software that goes from design to fabrication in one day, only to learn architects rejected it because it removed their design control Evolving from 2D drawings to 3D renderings to animations to physical two-story mock-ups—and why customers only "got it" after seeing real completed buildings Launching a separate SaaS division for architects that independently generates value while creating 90% backend efficiency when connected to Dextall's manufacturing The three-to-five-year vision: prompt-engineered buildings with real-time cost, carbon footprint, and feasibility feedback GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Domain credibility is your entry ticket in risk-averse industries: Aurimas's first customers came because he had "street credibility"—a track record of delivering complex, large-scale window projects. In construction, healthcare, and other industries where failure has severe consequences, founders without domain experience face insurmountable trust barriers. If you're building in these markets without industry background, your co-founder or first hires must bring that credibility, or you'll burn years trying to earn it. Proof velocity matters more than proof perfection: Dextall moved from 9-story buildings to 40-story projects by stacking proof points, not by waiting to debut with a showcase project. Each successful delivery de-risked the next larger bet. Founders should optimize for proof velocity—getting the smallest viable validation that enables the next larger commitment—rather than trying to land the trophy customer that "proves everything." Physical businesses require physical proof—budget accordingly: Dextall built multiple two-story physical mock-ups and actual buildings before customers truly understood their value proposition, despite having sophisticated 3D animations. Aurimas noted customers kept claiming they understood, then asking the same questions until they could physically see and touch completed work. If you're building in construction, manufacturing, or industrial sectors, your CAC will include physical demonstration costs that software founders never face. Budget 3-5x what you think you'll need for mock-ups and proofs of concept. Workflow disruption fails when you remove user agency: Dextall's software could compress 3-4 years of design coordination into one day—a 1000x improvement. Architects rejected it because it was "too heavy" and removed their control over design. The team had to rebuild to let architects control design while Dextall's system handled the backend connection to manufacturing. When your "better way" requires users to surrender control or change how they think about their craft, you're not selling efficiency—you're selling identity change, which rarely works. Find the integration layer that adds value without displacing existing agency. In mature industries, selectively challenge the status quo: Aurimas explicitly asks "is this fight worth fighting?" when Dextall encounters resistance to their approach. They focus on 3-4 nuances at a time rather than attempting to fix all 100 industry problems. When pushback happens, they evaluate whether to press the issue or "build deeper trench within the customer base" first, then return to that battle later. Founders tackling established industries should map their battles, not just their product roadmap—identify which conventions are essential to challenge for your value prop, and which can wait until you have more market power. Bridge disconnected systems rather than optimizing endpoints: The construction industry has sophisticated design tools (AI-powered generative design) and manufacturers (though often Excel-based). Dextall's differentiation is connecting these two worlds—architects can design freely, and their designs automatically translate to manufacturing specifications with real-time costing and feasibility. Many mature industries have this pattern: advanced front-end tools, capable back-end production, but manual/broken handoffs between them. The integration layer often provides more defensible value than improving either endpoint. Layer software distribution onto enterprise sales once you have proof: Dextall spent years doing "old school" enterprise sales—cold calling developers, lunch-and-learns with architects, bringing customers to job sites. Only after building credibility and understanding architect workflows are they launching SaaS for architectural firms. The software creates independent value for architects while generating 90% backend efficiency for Dextall when connected. Founders in hybrid businesses should resist the temptation to lead with software distribution before proving the full value chain works—but actively build toward that transition. // 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.

    As I mentioned on the show, my absolutely favorite reveal, despite its duck-billed alt mode, was Krannix from the Transformers '86 movie. Talk about holes being filled. For Joe, the addition of dinosaurs to the line is extremely interesting, even if it's just a momentary distraction. Masters of the Universe, of course, went off. With two different lines similar enough to be confused, at least by me, we have a ton of options. But, that Trap Jaw with an articulated jaw, am I right? Star Wars blew their load pre-Toy Fair, but being an arctic guy, let's just say, I want everything.

    The bricks are back in the sandbox, and this time they brought history with them. In this episode, we dive into “Lego Rebuild the Galaxy: Pieces of the Past”, the latest chapter in the delightfully scrambled galaxy far, far away. If you thought canon was sturdy, this special gleefully pops it apart like a Millennium Falcon mid-hyperdrive tune-up and snaps it back together in ways that would make even Darth Vader tilt his helmet. We break down the biggest twists, the blink-and-you'll-miss-it deep cuts, and the moments that had us pausing to say, “Wait… did they really just do that?” From unexpected character mashups to lore-bending brick wizardry, this installment leans fully into playful chaos while still sneaking in heartfelt beats under the plastic sheen. We also talk about how the special connects to the larger LEGO Star Wars universe, what longtime fans of Star Wars will appreciate most, and whether this story truly honors the “pieces of the past” or just joyfully rearranges them. Is it a clever remix of galactic history? A nostalgia-powered starfighter? Or just pure LEGO-fueled fun with a hyperdrive strapped to it? Grab your kyber crystals and your brick separators.

    What does it actually take to automate security operations when you're processing 7 trillion log lines daily and a single missed threat could compromise billions of users? Michael Sinno, Director of Detection & Response at Google, explains how his team handles this with less than 1% requiring human intervention through strategic AI implementation. He explores Google's methodical approach to AI autonomy, including fine-tuned models trained on golden datasets, validation through overseer agents, and the critical distinction between traditional automation and agentic AI that exercises judgment. Michael also discusses groundbreaking work with Sec-Gemini and Timesketch that enables forensic analysis to surface attack patterns humans would never detect manually. Michael shares concrete metrics like reducing executive incident notifications from 30 minutes to 90 seconds, achieving 95% precision in ticket deduplication, and automating vulnerability coordination from hours to minutes. Topics discussed:Processing 7 trillion log lines daily with less than 1% of a million annual tickets requiring human intervention at GoogleStrategic evolution from AI-assisted to AI-led to autonomous security operations using fine-tuned models and golden datasetsBuilding modular detection agents as pluggable components that can be combined like Legos for specific security use casesImplementing quality assurance through overseer agents that review other agents' work to ensure precision in security decisionsReducing executive incident notifications from 30 minutes to 90 seconds using AI-powered summarization and context gatheringAchieving 95% precision in ticket deduplication while managing the trade-off between precision and 38% recall ratesIntegrating Sec-Gemini with Timesketch to surface attack patterns in forensic investigations that humans would never find manuallyShifting from traditional detection and response to infer-and-interrupt models that contain threats immediately before escalationAutomating vulnerability coordination workflows from hours to minutes through AI-powered data collection and impact analysisDistinguishing between traditional automation and agentic AI that exercises judgment rather than following if-then logicSetting a stretch goal of 70% automation in operations work while focusing humans on novel and complex security challengesMeasuring success through time-to-mitigation metrics and evaluating AI performance against human baseline capabilitiesListen to more episodes: Apple Spotify YouTubeWebsite

    Aujourd'hui, je reçois Alessandra Sublet, l'animatrice adorée des Français, longtemps visage incontournable de la télévision, énergie solaire, liberté de ton… Mais derrière les plateaux et les projecteurs, il y a une autre histoire. Une histoire de départs, de routes prises sans plan précis, de valises faites sur un coup de tête.Chez Alessandra, le voyage n'est jamais un simple déplacement. C'est un instinct. Une échappée. Une façon de respirer plus large quand les cadres deviennent trop étroits. Avant la télévision, avant la notoriété, il y a eu l'Afrique du Sud, la Namibie, New York. Six années à vivre en mouvement, à se construire loin des trajectoires toutes tracées, à apprendre la liberté sur le terrain.Puis il y a eu la Patagonie. Le cap Horn. Un voyage charnière, au moment précis où sa vie bascule, séparation, fin d'un cycle professionnel, besoin de redéfinir le cap. De cette traversée naîtra un livre, et peut-être une version encore plus libre d'elle-même. Car pour Alessandra, l'aventure ne se mesure pas en kilomètres. Elle peut être à l'autre bout du monde… ou à deux heures de train. Elle peut être une traversée en solitaire… ou un décollage depuis le cockpit d'un avion qu'elle pilote elle-même.Ce qui compte, c'est le mouvement. Ce pas de côté qui change tout. Cette conviction que “le mouvement crée la chance”. Alors aujourd'hui, on va parler de routes imprévues, de falaises qu'on ose sauter, de chagrins d'amour, de cap Horn, de liberté, et de ce que ça veut dire… se réinventer.Découvrez le nouveau roman d'Alessandra juste ici : https://www.fnac.com/a22185345/Alessandra-Sublet-Toi-que-je-n-attendais-plus***Ce mois-ci le podcast est soutenu par la marque Rosemood, un atelier de papeterie personnalisé qui confectionne les plus beaux albums de photos !

This week, we reflect on the passing of legendary Italian designer Valentino Garavani, his cinematic inspirations, enduring glamour, and the unmistakable legacy of Valentino red, before pivoting to fashion's lighter side with the latest Crocs x Lego collaboration. From couture to clogs, it's proof that fashion holds space for both reverence and play. Then we turn inward and focus on letting go of guilt around the pieces you don't wear. Why do we hold onto clothes that no longer serve our daily lives, and how does that emotional weight keep us stuck in the same outfit cycle? We explore the idea that clothing is a tool, not a moral obligation, and how creating an "archive" mindset allows you to honor beautiful pieces without forcing them into everyday rotation. If part one was about aligning your wardrobe with your lifestyle, this episode is about giving yourself permission to evolve. This is a thoughtful, honest look at personal style growth, wardrobe mindset shifts, and redefining what it means to truly dress for the life you're living now. Happy Styling!

    OB's snowblower needs pliers, Ed's ego needs sport coats, and somehow both are working exactly as designed. This episode spins through listener feedback, Ed's glow-up moment as a distinguished alum of Rutgers University, and OB's surprisingly wholesome Valentine's Day spent building Legos like a romantic engineer. Ed questions OB's life choices, OB questions Ed's fashion evolution, and both question the emotional stability of college basketball fans in March. From broken machinery to rebuilt reputations, it's legacy, love, and light roasting, with just enough heart to keep the chaos properly calibrated.

    We start the episode with the family doing a Mother's Day event. You know that even with Lego on the mic, The Stache was the real draw. Plus,the family gets their picture "made"...slowly but slowly. In our Dig, we explore James Dobson's book "The Strong-Willed Child: Birth Through Adolescence". Our disgust for this vacuous trash bag and the book he wrote cannot be understated. The entire book is a way for Dobson to get sleep at night and justify villainizing your children and beating them. Alternate titles could have been "I don't mean to promote child abuse, but....."

    On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with industry leaders from across the country at the American Bus Association's Marketplace 2026 in Reno, Nevada, to uncover what's next for destinations, attractions, and travelers. You'll hear from Josef Kruger of US Ghost Adventures, Aisha Jones of Mystic Seaport Museum, Jana Carter from Visit Annapolis, Kay Calzolari of Visit Winston Salem, Meredith Dollevoet from Cartersville Museum City, Jim Vozzella with 360Chicago, and Debra Tassone from Discover Long Island. Together, they share fresh insights on how storytelling, immersive activities, and hands-on programming are reshaping group experiences. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How group travel experiences are evolving to focus on immersive storytelling and hands-on engagement Strategies for collaboration between destinations, attractions, and local partners Trends shaping group travel for 2026, including wellness-focused itineraries and multi-generational groups How destinations and attractions are using customizable programming to add value and create memorable moments for visitors Why DMOs and attractions are bundling experiences and aligning their offerings to appeal to new travel trends Innovative approaches organizations are using to keep travelers engaged before, during, and after their visits How getting involved with associations like the ABA contributes to building enduring relationships and fostering continuous growth in the travel industry Innovation Through Collaboration Collaboration is no longer a "nice to have". It's mission-critical critical. Guests stress the importance of teaming up with regional partners, DMOs, and local organizations. By curating joint itineraries, sharing resources, and feeding each other's strengths, destinations can offer more complete and compelling travel experiences. Kay Calzolari of Visit Winston Salem shares how investing in personal relationships with nearby towns and attractions has enabled her to offer valuable regional itineraries, extending stays, and enhancing visitor value. This collaborative spirit isn't just about logistics, it's about approaching every partner as part of a larger community, working together to create seamless, memorable journeys for guests. Trends Driving Group Travel With the approach of major milestones like America's 250th anniversary in 2026, destinations are getting creative. Thematic travel is gaining traction, from wellness retreats and service-oriented projects to festivals and Be Revolutionary experiences, as Jana Carter describes for Annapolis. Operators are increasingly tapping into local culture, outdoor recreation, and even culinary partnerships. Museums are stepping up with exhibits that go beyond static displays. As Aisha Jones discusses, Mystic Seaport Museum is bringing in unique traveling exhibits, like shipwrecks recreated in LEGO, and launching virtual educational programs to grow engagement beyond the museum's walls. The Power of Networks At the heart of this evolution is the network effect. ABA Marketplace events and similar gatherings have become essential for building lasting industry relationships. Whether it's a first-timer bonding over shared experiences or seasoned pros joining councils and volunteer teams, the connections made drive both business and inspiration. As several guests reflect, returning to these conferences is like coming home—reconnecting with peers, learning from each other, and growing together.
