Ko stopimo v gozd ali na gorsko pot, si želimo svežega zraka, ki napolni telo in duha. A kaj pravzaprav dihamo? Nova študija, objavljena v prestižni reviji Nature, razkriva, da kakovost zraka ni le vprašanje delcev PM10 in PM2,5, temveč tudi njihovega oksidativnega potenciala – parametra, ki vpliva na naše zdravje veliko bolj, kot si mislimo. Zakaj je onesnažen zrak tiha grožnja, ki vsako leto povzroči milijone prezgodnjih smrti? Z nami so bili avtor študije dr. Griša Močnik in dr. Matej Ogrin (oddelek za geografijo na Filozofski fakulteti) ter Špela Berlot Veselko (Cipra).

Financial data has its challenges—but non-financial data is a different scale of complexity. It cuts vertically up and down the value chain, and now requires the same level of confidence as financials, with board sign-off and external assurance becoming the norm. In this episode of The Pre-Read, we break down how finance and sustainability leaders are aligning around programs like sustainability-linked bonds, why a long-term mindset matters, and how AI is helping organizations make sense of fragmented, non-standardized information. • Why sustainability data is more complex than financial data • The need for integration—top-down from the board and across every business unit • How companies build data confidence through external assurance • The two-pillar reporting model: impact (GRI, SDGs) and value (ISSB, TCFD, TNFD) • Why brave leadership and a growth mindset are essential for adopting new technology Featuring: Esther An, CSO, City Developments Limited Andrea Amozurrutia Casillas, Finance and Sustainability Director, Grupo Herdez Read the full report on how professionals are building value with AI: workiva.com/pr-building-value Key Segments: 01:00 | Why sustainability data is more complex 03:50 | The two-pillar approach: Impact + value 08:30 | Esther An on board sign-off and assurance 15:30 | Long-term view in a volatile environment 18:00 | Andrea Amozurrutia Casillas on sustainability-linked bonds 25:30 | Why AI matters for data chaos Find more conversations at workiva.com/podcast/the-pre-read Subscribe for upcoming episodes.

Laikā, kad Latvijā izjūtama spēcīga lauku iztukšošanās tendence un attālāku reģionu depopulācija, ir arī tādi cilvēki, kas iet pret straumi un izdara apzinātu izvēli par atgriešanos vai dzīves sākšanu lauku vidē. Tādi ir arī Latvijas Radio jaunāko raidieraksta jeb podkāsta "Es izvēlos dzīvi laukos" piecu sēriju galvenie varoņi – jauni cilvēki, kas, izbraukājuši tuvākas un tālākas zemes, šobrīd savu dzīvi un darbu veido Latgales laukos. Iemesli dažādi – brīvības alkas, klusums, miers, senču mantojuma sentiments, pašaudzēta pārtika un biznesa iespēju potenciāls. Trīsdesmit sešus gadus vecā Monta Vecozola pabeigusi Kultūras akadēmiju, šobrīd dien Zemessardzē un strādā labdarības biedrībā „Tavi draugi”. Pēc Montas iniciatīvas kara Ukrainā sākumā Latvijas austrumu pierobežā tika izveidoti bēgļu atbalsta punkti. Pēc 17 gadu dzīves galvaspilsētā, Monta meklēja brīvību un 2024.gadā atrada to Latgales lauku viensētā. Bet šī atrastā brīvība bija sākotnēji jāatkaro no krūmiem, arī vilkiem, kas uzmanīja viņa māju. „29. septembrī es atbraucu ar savu pēdējo kravu, biju aizslēgusi jau Rīgas dzīvokli un 2.oktobrī Puša ieradās,” Puša ir viens no kaķiem, kas kopā ar Montu šobrīd apdzīvo simtgadīgu lauku māju Rēzeknes novada Maltas pagastā Griščatu sādžā. „Man ļoti patīk tas - Griščatu sādža. Es to arī vismaz savā leksikā plānoju saglabāt, lai man adrese ierakstās sādžā. Nu sādžas te vairs nav, protams.” Monta dzimusi Madonas novada Praulienā.17 gados aizbrauca pamācīties uz Franciju, un pēc atgriešanās, sākās lielā Rīgas dzīve. Pēc Rīgā nodzīvotiem 17 gadiem viņa izlēma par labu turpmāk dzīvi veidot laukos, un līdz ar pāris hektāriem zemes iegādājās lauku viensētu. „Kad es to māju atradu, tad tā bija pilnībā ieaugusi. Nevarēja pamatus redzēt, visiem logiem bija priekšā krūmi. Un tad lēnu garu, sākot trimmerēt ārā visus zarus un ap to māju staigājot, tā jau pati arī parādīja, kā iekārtot to teritoriju, kur siltumnīcai tā pareizā vieta un kur tad to kafiju tev gribas dzert.” Par to, ka jāpārvācas prom no pilsētas Monta sapratusi dažus gadus atpakaļ, patika braukt pie dabas, bet lielu lomu dzīves izvēlēs nospēlējis arī karš Ukrainā. Tas Montu stimulēja iestāties Zemessardzē, un iesaistīties labdarības organizācijā „Tavi draugi” palīdzības sniegšanā kara bēgļiem no Ukrainas, kas šobrīd kļuvis par viņas pilna laika darbu, šobrīd gan attālināti. „Man tas bija kaut kāds ļoti liels vērtību un fundamentālu pamatlietu pārbaudes laiks, kur es daudz ko sapratu gan par sevi gan par to, ko es gribu no dzīves un kur un kā es jūtos vislabāk.” Lai arī dzīve laukos liek atteikties no agrāk ierastās spontanitātes ikdienas lēmumos, tomēr Monta te lauku un mežu vidū atradusi savu brīvību. „Bet brīvība tas atkal ir diemžēl tā kara kontekstā un tās manas nodarbošanas kontekstā, ka tai brīvībai vispār kaut kāds cits svars parādījās.” Pārcelšanās procesu Monta vērtē kā diezgan radikālu, tas licis pārvērtēt daudzas lietas. „Tad man sākās tās lielās pārdomas vispār par to mūsu laicīgo bagātību, par mantām un cik tālu tas viss ir tā vērts, lai es to vestu gandrīz 300 km. Šausmīgi daudz kas tika stiepts par tām pļavām, un tad tu stiep un vēlreiz domā vai tev tiešām tas viss ir vajadzīgs. Arī patiesībā labs treniņš, lai saprastu, cik patiesībā maz jau mums tās mantas vajag.” Bet ģimene un draugi Montas lēmumu atbalstīja un šobrīd brauc arī ciemos, un līdztekus laukiem neierastajam putekļusūcējam robotam Montas mājās ir ne vien trauku mazgājamā mašīna, bet arī vafeļu panna un piena putotājs. „To manas draudzenes uzdāvināja – jo tad, kad viņa sabrauc, saka – un tad tas kapučīno uz tās pļavas ir tas īstais!” Kā saka Monta, laukos laika ir krietni vairāk laika nekā pilsētā, viņa atsākusi lasīt grāmatas un ieminusi taciņu uz vietējo Maltas bibliotēku, kur nereti paņem arī ko latgaliski lasāmu, cerībā ar laiku iekļauties vietējā kopienā. „Cilvēki ir ļoti draudzīgi un viesmīlīgi, bet tajā pašā laikā man liekas, ka tev ir jānopelna nedaudz tā kā tā iekļūšana tādā Latgales kopienā.” Šī būs otrā ziema, ko Monta pavadīs viena savā lauku sētā. Pirmo posmu jauniegādātajā vecajā lauku mājā, jaunā sieviete sauc par dzīvošanu uz adrenalīna un pieņemšanas - lēmums izdarīts un atpakaļ ceļa nav. Tagad, ja ne Zemessardze, darba pienākumi un ikmēneša izbraukumi uz tuvējo pilsētu pēc pārtikas krājumiem, Monta savu lauku māju pamestu aizvien retāk. Ar lielu interesi joprojām Monta iepazīst savu māju un apkārtni, pirmo pavasari gaidījusi, lai uzzinātu, kādā krāsā ziedēs pie mājas augošais ceriņkrūms. „Tik ļoti foršs tas pārsteiguma moments, kad tu nevari visu tā sakot nopirkt, kaut kāda daļa paliek „maisā”.” Vispopulārākais jautājums uz kuru Montai nākas atbildēt – vai nav bail un vai nav garlaicīgi. „Un tad ziemā kā es sāku no viena loga, tad es izstaigāju, paskatos zaķīšus, caunītes, vilkus pa šito logu skaisti var vērot. Nu ļoti jau skaisti kā tādi milzīgi haskiji. Tad skatos vēl viens, vēl viens. Beigās septiņus saskaitīju. Viņi bija ielenkuši, pārbaudīja visu teritoriju. Bet es te stāvu, ziema, viss tāds balts, kaķi istabā – sirreāli, bet tik skaisti. Nu citā situācijā jau nekas skaists tas nav - septiņi vilki tev pagalmā, bet uz to brīdi man likās - tāda eksotika.”

Kaj je bolj škodljivo: izpušni plini, kurjenje lesa ali kajenje Zdaj ne moremo več zanikati dejstva, da nam onesnažen zrak skrajša življenje. Vendar na kakšen način? Kaj je za ljudi bolj škodljivo: izpušni plini, kurjenje drv, ali kajenje? V Ultrazvoku odgovarja fizik dr. Griša Močnik. Sogovornik tokratne oddaje je s sodelavci in sodelavkami Centra za raziskave atmosfere Univerze v Novi Gorici v sodelovanju s kolegicami in kolegi iz tujine dokazal, da se škoda v pljučih, ki jo povzročijo trdni delci v vdihanem zraku, razlikuje glede na vir onesnaževanja. Izmerili so, kakšen je tako imenovani oksidativni potencial trdnih delcev PM10 in PM2,5. Z njim lahko prikažemo vpliv trdih delcev na zdravje ljudi. Rezultate odmevne študije so pred tednom dni (22. 10. 2025) objavili v znanstveni reviji Nature, prof. dr. Griša Močnik pa jo bo predstavil v oddaji Ultrazvok. Mednarodne analize in primerjave sicer kažejo, da je zrak v Sloveniji med bolj onesnaženimi v Evropi. Zelo negativno izstopa zlasti Ljubljana. Deskle v občini Kanal ob Soči, Sarajevo, Chamonix v Franciji pa so trije kraji od triinštiridesetih, ki po najslabši kakovosti zraka izstopajo v prelomni študiji.

Are you losing your best people and don't know why? In this final episode of our four-part series with Frederic Lucas-Conwell, founder of GRI.co, we tackle the most expensive problem in business: top talent walking out the door. Most companies think they understand why high performers leave. They're wrong. From boardroom battles to manager missteps, Frederic reveals the behavioral mismatches that drive your best people away—and the surprisingly simple changes that can keep them engaged. We discuss why CEOs and boards clash despite shared goals, what "engagement" really means (hint: it's not what most tools measure), and the one overlooked factor that matters more than perks, ping pong tables, or pizza Fridays. If you're tired of expensive turnover, bland exit interviews, and watching talent walk to your competitors, this episode delivers actionable insights you can use this week. No fluff, no corporate speak—just honest conversation about what actually works. All episodes from this series are here.
No empātijas līdz apātijai ir viens solis, tā varētu teikt par kādu interesantu fenomenu, ko dažkārt redzam sabiedrībā. Kad kāds garāmgājējs nonāk nelaimē, mēs steidzamies palīgā, ja apkārt nav citu cilvēku. Kolīdz šāda situācija notiek pūlī, reakcija palīdzēt kavējas. Psiholoģijā to dēvē par garāmgājēja efektu. Kāpēc tā rīkojamies? Kas noteiks to, vai būsim empātiski vai apātiski? Raidījumā Zināmais nezināmajā skaidro Latvijas Univerisitātes profesors, sociālās psiholoģijas un politikas psiholoģijas pētnieks Ģirts Dimdiņš. Par to, cik atsaucīgi esam vai neesam, ziņojot par kādiem notikumiem, aicinot palīgā, ja kāds nonācis nelaimē, vaicājam Valsts policijas Rīgas reģiona pārvaldes Rīgas Austrumu pārvaldes Kriminālpolicijas biroja 2. nodaļas priekšnieka vietnieci Nadeždu Griņeviču. "Protams, mūsu personībai ir nozīme, un daži cilvēki pēc dabas ir palīdzošāki, altruistiskāki, empātiskāki, bet noteikti būtu liela kļūda reducēt to, vai cilvēki palīdz ārkārtas situācijās, uz rakstura īpašībām, vēl jo vairāk tikai uz empātiju vai altruismu," norāda Ģirts Dimdiņš. Pētnieks skaidro, palīdzēšana - nepalīdzēšana ir pētīta sistemātiski un daudz jau kopš pagājušā gadsimta 60. gadiem, un pētījumi kopumā ir izkristalizējuši piecus galvenos soļus, lai cilvēki palīdzētu ārkārtas situācijās citiem. Liela loma ir situācijai un dažādām apstākļu sakritībām. "Pirmkārt, mums ir jāpamana ārkārtas situācija, lai rastos interese vai vajadzība palīdzēt vai mēs par domātu par to, vai mums kādam ir jāpalīdz. Otrkārt, mums ir jāinterpretē tā ārkārtas situācija kā ārkārtas situācija. (..) Treškārt, mums ir jāuzņemas atbildība. Un šeit parādās klasiskais saucamais pasīvā novērotāja efekts, jo vairāk ir vēl citu liecinieku bez mums, jo mazāka varbūtība, ka mēs būsim tie, kuri pieslēgsies, mēģinās kaut ko darīt," skaidro Ģirts Dimdiņš. "(..) Mums ir arī jābūt spējīgiem, kompetentiem palīdzēt pat tad, ja mēs saprotam, jā, man būtu jāpalīdz šajā situācijā, bet jautājums, vai es to varu? Paņemt telefonu un piezvanīt mēs varbūt visi varam, bet ja ir jālec ūdenī un kāds jāvelk ārā, vai jāskrien degošā mājā, vai jāiesaistās fiziskā konfliktā, tur jau ir pilnīgi cits jautājums un citi apsvērumi. Ar to viss vēl nebeidzas, jo ir piektais solis, kas ir mūsu racionālā analīze. Vai, ja es iesaistīšos, tās izmaksas nebūs pārāk augstas, salīdzinot ar iespējamiem ieguvumiem neiesaistoties vai arī izmaksām, kas notiks tad, ja neiesaistīšos tajā situācijā. Tātad vienmēr pēdējais solis vēl ir tāda tīri ekonomiski racionāla analīze." "Ir jābūt noteiktām personības iezīmju kombinācijām, lai cilvēks izvēlētos aizturēt likumpārkāpēju ar kaut kādu risku sev. To biežāk dara vīrieši," analizē Ģirts Dimdiņš. "Kur ir vajadzīgā drosmes, fiziskā spēka demonstrēšana, tur biežāk iesaistās iesaistās tieši vīrieši. Tur atkal parādās tas aspekts, ja ir, piemēram, pēc dzimuma homogēna novērotāju grupa, piemēram, ārkārtas situācijai ir pieci liecinieki vīrieši, tad ir lielāka varbūtība, ka viens no viņiem iesaistīsies ārkārtas situācijā, nekā tad, ja tā ir miksēta grupa. Atkal varētu būt tāpēc, ka gribās nodemonstrēt, kurš ir spēcīgāks barā, vai arī ir paļaušanās, ka citi nāks palīgā, ja vajadzēs." -- Bet par grāmatām savā grāmatplauktā, kas saistītas ar šī raidījuma sarunas tēmu, stāsta raidījuma autores Sandra Kropa un Paula Gulbinska.

Ignacio de Loyola Rodríguez Scull, conocido como Arsenio Rodríguez (Güira de Macurijes, Matanzas, Cuba, 30 de agosto de 1911 - Los Ángeles, California, Estados Unidos, 31 de diciembre de 1970) fue un compositor e intérprete de tres cubano con un importante papel en el desarrollo del llamado son montuno. Su formación de conjunto con varias trompetas, definió un sonido que, visto en perspectiva, sentó las bases para el desarrollo de lo que hoy se conoce como salsa. Fue un prolífico compositor, escribió cerca de 200 canciones, la mayoría salpicadas de humor y doble sentido. == Biografía == De niño, Rodríguez quedó ciego cuando un caballo (o una mula) lo pateó en la cabeza, hecho que marcó el resto de su existencia. Más tarde se hizo músico y llegó a ser uno de los directores de conjunto más renombrados en Cuba. Fue un inspirador del concepto musical de los "conjuntos cubanos" al incorporar tumbadoras, piano y tres trompetas al formato tradicional de los grupos de son. Entre sus músicos se encontraban, en el piano, Rubén González y, más tarde, Lily Martínez Griñán; en las trompetas, Félix Chapotín y Chocolate Armenteros, al bongo, Papa Kila, entre otros. También contó con colaboraciones de Chano Pozo y Machito, así como de su primo René Scull como cantante. A la partida de Arsenio a Estados Unidos, Lily Mártinez, quien fungía en cierta medida como su director musical, quedó al frente del conjunto en Cuba. Rodríguez viajó a los Estados Unidos a principios de los 50, pues tenía esperanzas de someterse a cirugía y recobrar la visión. Luego del diagnóstico médico que le informó que no era posible que volviera a ver, Arsenio, sumido en un intenso dolor, compuso uno de sus principales temas: La vida es un sueño, de letra profunda a diferencia del doble sentido, el humor y los signos de religión africana que acostumbrara a tratar en sus composiciones. En los EE. UU. siguió publicando discos, principalmente para Tico y Blue Note. Para esta última compañía grabó Tribilín cantore y Palo congo, aunque este último fue editado bajo el nombre de Sabú Martínez, pese a que Rodríguez compuso casi todos los temas, cantó y tocó el tres y la percusión. Entre sus temas más populares están Bruca maniguá ?la primera canción suya que se grabó, originalmente interpretada por Miguelito Valdés con la Orquesta Casino de la Playa, Mami, me gustó, El divorcio, Papa upa, 'El reloj de Pastora, Fuego en el 23, La yuca de Catalina y el ya mencionado La vida es sueño, A finales de los años 60 el mambo "estalló", y Rodríguez continuó tocando con su típico estilo. Llegó a grabar algunos boogaloos no muy exitosos y la popularidad del grupo fue declinando. Intentó un nuevo comienzo en Los Ángeles pero murió en 1970 y su cuerpo fue enviado a Nueva York para sus funerales. Se ha especulado mucho sobre su situación económica durante sus últimos años pero Mario Bauza niega que muriera en la pobreza, argumentando que Rodríguez tenía, aunque modestos, unos ingresos por concepto de derechos de autor.[1]? == Relevancia == Aunque Arsenio murió en un relativo anonimato en Los Ángeles, su música está considerada hoy en día como una inspiradora obra de arte. Exploró los ritmos afrocubanos y enfatizó el papel protagonista del tres, llegando a ser uno de los treseros más grandes de todos los tiempos. Sus canciones y su ritmo todavía viven en las recreaciones de sus temas en las famosas salsas y su música y concepción de conjunto es inspiración para salseros. Después del 50, las bandas grandes que estaban de moda durante la época del mambo, dejaron de estarlo. Sin embargo, los grupos o conjuntos gracias al importante papel desempeñado por Arsenio en la música cubana constituyeron una referencia determinante en lo que hoy en día se denomina "música latina", en especial la salsa. Fue intuitivo y universal en todo el proceso de fusión que fue su música. Arsenio Rodríguez es, junto a Ignacio Piñeiro, Ñico Saquito, Miguel Matamoros, María Teresa Vera y Benny Moré, uno de los padres de la cultura popular cubana.
Send me a messageWhen people think about tackling the climate crisis, they often talk about energy, food, or transport. But what about money? In this week's episode of Climate Confident, I sat down with Scott Ryan, founder and CEO of Investature, to unpack one of the biggest blind spots in corporate climate strategies, the financial supply chain.Scott argues that pensions, retirement savings, and even our everyday bank accounts may be the largest single drivers of greenhouse gas emissions for many organisations, often dwarfing their direct operations and traditional Scope 3 supply chains. He explained how most retirement funds are still heavily invested in fossil fuels and high-pollution industries, even though those assets will almost certainly become stranded as the world pushes for net zero.The numbers are staggering. Globally, pensions account for over $100 trillion. Redirecting just 1% of that towards climate solutions would close a third of the climate finance gap, enough to massively accelerate the transition in energy, mobility, agriculture, and adaptation. Yet most companies and individuals remain unaware of the scale of this leverage.We explored why financial supply chains have been overlooked in frameworks like TCFD and GRI, and why leading employers are now beginning to integrate sustainable retirement options into their benefits. Scott also shared practical steps individuals can take, such as shifting to green banks, exploring climate-positive ETFs, or pushing employers to offer sustainable pension plans.This is not just about risk management; it's about turning finance into a genuine engine for climate solutions. If you've ever wondered how your savings could work for or against the planet, this episode will give you a fresh lens on climate action.Podcast supportersI'd like to sincerely thank this podcast's amazing subscribers: Ben Gross Jerry Sweeney Andreas Werner Stephen Carroll Roger Arnold And remember you too can Subscribe to the Podcast - it is really easy and hugely important as it will enable me to continue to create more excellent Climate Confident episodes like this one, as well as give you access to the entire back catalog of Climate Confident episodes.ContactIf you have any comments/suggestions or questions for the podcast - get in touch via direct message on Twitter/LinkedIn.

Drevesa vse svoje življenje rastejo in nekatera med njimi dosežejo izjemne velikosti. In če se rast v višino nekoč ustavi, pa se drevo leto za letom, milimeter za milimetrom debeli. Ta počasna, a vztrajna rast je izredno dinamičen proces, ki drevesom omogoča odzivanje na letne čase in spreminjajoče se podnebje. Vse, kar se dogaja v okolju, se tako zapiše tudi v notranjost drevesa - v kolobarje oziroma branike in drevesno skorjo. Ti kolobarji tako ne pripovedujejo zgolj o starosti samega drevesa, s podrobnim preučevanjem zgradbe in strukture lesa, lahko marsikaj izvemo o okolju in razmerah, v katerih je drevo raslo. Kaj vse med rastjo drevesa vpliva na drevo, da je les tak, kakršen je? In ali nam tudi struktura drevesne skorje, torej lubja, ličja lahko pove kaj o razmerah, v katerih je drevo raslo? S temi vprašanji se med drugim ukvarja tokratna gostja Podob znanja, dr. Jožica Gričar, raziskovalka z Oddelka za gozdno fiziologijo in genetiko Gozdarskega inštituta Slovenije.

Your son just graduated college with excellent grades, but can't get past the "AI robot" screening resumes. Meanwhile, companies like Nike are using AI filters as their first hiring step, eliminating potentially brilliant candidates before any human ever sees them. What's going wrong with this approach? In Part 2 of our series with Frederic Lucas-Conwell, President of GRI (Growth Resources Institute), we dive beyond traditional resume screening into the world of AI-enhanced behavioral profiling. While most companies use AI to filter OUT candidates based on keywords and credentials, GRI uses AI to understand HOW people actually function in roles. Frederic reveals the fundamental flaw in asking for "perfect" candidates and shares how behavioral intelligence helps you spot the hidden characteristics that drive revenue performance—especially in candidates who might not have the perfect resume. We explore why recent college graduates with stellar academics are being eliminated by systems that can't see their potential, and how companies can identify candidates who are ready to quit their current jobs (and how to attract them). Susan shares a real-world example of interviewing two best friends using GRI's approach, demonstrating how behavioral insights create instant trust and reveal traits that would never appear on a resume. This isn't just about hiring—it's about seeing what your eyes cannot see.

no se aplicarán las sentencias que estimaron los recursos de los ex altos cargos de la Junta, entre ellos Chávez y Griñán. Patricia Roseti. De extralimitación e impunidad habla la audiencia de Sevilla del controvertido fallo del Tribunal de Pumpido. Para los cinco magistrados, el TC, un órgano ajeno al Poder Judicial, pudo haberse extralimitado en su función de garante constitucional y podría haber invadido la jurisdicción de jueces y tribunales. Podría haber suplantado la función del Tribunal Supremo como máximo intérprete de la ley, función que le otorga la Constitución. De forma inédita, ...

Most hiring managers are drowning in resumes, conducting endless interviews, and still ending up with costly mis-hires that drain productivity and morale. What if the problem isn't finding good candidates—it's understanding what you actually need before you start looking? In this episode of Rooted in Revenue, host Susan Finch sits down with Frederic Lucas-Conwell, President of GRI (Growth Resources Institute), to explore how behavioral intelligence is revolutionizing the hiring process. Unlike traditional personality tests or gut-feeling interviews, GRI's approach uses objective, nuanced assessments to help organizations understand not just who people are, but how they actually function in specific roles. Frederic reveals why so many job descriptions ask for "Mr. or Mrs. Perfect" and how this backwards approach leads to expensive hiring mistakes. We dive into the true financial impact of poor hiring decisions—from wasted interview time to costly three-month turnovers—and how behavioral intelligence can help you identify mismatches in weeks instead of months. Whether you're a CEO struggling with team performance, an HR professional tired of hiring misses, or a manager trying to get the best out of your existing team, this conversation offers practical insights into building high-performing organizations through a better understanding of people.

1197. Hoy me apetecía hacer un repaso de esos que me sirven para cargar pilas de cara a lo que viene. En este episodio hago balance de todo lo que ha dado de sí la temporada 2024-2025, tanto en este metapodcast como en EOVE Productora. Y ya te adelanto que, aunque al principio del año la hoja estaba en blanco, al echar la vista atrás me doy cuenta de todo lo que he podido hacer.Arranco el repaso desde el punto de partida de esta temporada: una puesta a punto con Salvi Melguizo y su podcast 'Ladrando en la Sube . Le siguieron configuraciones como la del podcast 'Trago y Medio' de Claudia González o 'Asómate' de Marta Ahijado. Además, participé en eventos como las Podtalks, las JPod24 en Valencia, las 'Gildas de Oro', la WordCamp de Griñón o la 'V Trobada de Podcasting' en el MAC. Sin olvidarme de las grabaciones privadas para 'Los Jueves', impulsadas por Ignacio Bernabéu de La Fábrica de Podcast, o la producción del nuevo podcast microEmPrendedores para Europa Press.También han sido meses de asesorías, como la que hice con Ángel y su podcast en 'Contando Kilómetro , o de charlas como la que ofrecí en SinOficina con "50 claves para impulsar un podcast autoproducido". Y por supuesto, producción de nuevos podcasts como Ocurrencias, Letters to the Editor, EPAgro y EPTurismo.Y si hablamos de hitos, no puedo dejar de mencionar el ciclo de Podnights Madrid de 2025, posible gracias al crowdfunding que, por los pelos, conseguimos sacar adelante. O los patrocinios: desde la Agencia Catalana de Turismo con su podcast 'Greal, el secreto de las ocho llave', hasta apoyos como los de Margot Martín, Iván Patxi, Ekos Media o la Asociación Yo Soy el Otro. Todo esto ha sido posible gracias a quienes han apoyado el podcast desde Ko-fi, ayudándome a alcanzar uno de mis objetivos técnicos para la temporada: un Rodecaster Duo. Y es que sí, como repito cada año, si algo tengo claro es que el tiempo acaba dándome la razón: hago podcast, hablo de podcast y promociono en podcast. Es mi hábitat natural.Y como cada final de temporada, echo la vista atrás y sonrío desde este lado del micrófono, porque esta pasión sigue generándome trabajo, ilusión y comunidad. _________________Consigue tu entrada para el directo de '¿Cómo ye la tu movida?' el 27 de junio en las Podnights Madrid a través de Eventbrite https://www.eventbrite.es/e/entradas-como-ye-la-tu-movida-en-podnights-madrid-1401428262659_________________¡Gracias por pasarte 'Al otro lado del micrófono' un día más para seguir aprendiendo sobre podcasting!

C dans l'air du 10 juin 2025 - Surveillante poignardée : un "déferlement de violence insensé"Vers 9 h ce matin, alors que les gendarmes effectuaient un contrôle inopiné des sacs devant un collège de Nogent, en Haute-Marne, l'un des élèves, pour une raison encore inconnue, s'est jeté sur l'assistante d'éducation présente sur place et l'a poignardée à plusieurs reprises avant d'être maîtrisé par les forces de l'ordre. Grièvement blessée, la jeune femme, âgée de 31 ans, est décédée.Le suspect, Quentin G., âgé de 14 ans et inconnu des services de police, est actuellement entendu par les enquêteurs en garde à vue. Il devrait être examiné par un psychiatre. Des dispositions d'accompagnement ont été mises en place pour prendre en charge les élèves, leurs familles et le personnel de l'établissement. La ministre de l'Éducation nationale s'est rendue sur place en début d'après-midi. Interrogée sur le profil du suspect, Élisabeth Borne a parlé d'un "jeune qui ne présentait pas de difficultés particulières et qui était ambassadeur harcèlement". Elle a estimé qu'il faut une "réponse globale" face à ces drames. "On doit aussi agir sur la santé mentale", a expliqué la ministre, alors que les réactions dans la classe politique sont très nombreuses.Le président de la République a dénoncé ce matin sur X un "déferlement de violence insensé (…) La nation est en deuil". Cette mort "horrifie et elle nous glace", a réagi sur X la présidente du groupe LFI à l'Assemblée nationale. Le premier secrétaire du PS, Olivier Faure, a déploré une "abomination". "L'école est frappée par l'ultraviolence. Elle résiste, mais ne peut pas tout. On ne peut pas lui demander de réparer seule des décennies d'abandon civique, de désagrégation du lien social et de propagation de la violence", a écrit de son côté Raphaël Glucksmann. La présidente du groupe RN à l'Assemblée nationale Marine Le Pen, pour sa part, a écrit sur X : "Pas une semaine sans qu'un drame frappe l'école. Désacralisation de la vie, banalisation de l'ultraviolence, encouragée par l'apathie des pouvoirs publics à y mettre fin, explosion du port d'armes blanches : les Français n'en peuvent plus et attendent une réponse politique ferme", a affirmé la leader d'extrême droite, sans en dire plus.Le Premier ministre, qui sera l'invité du 20 heures de TF1, a indiqué vouloir faire de "la menace des armes blanches chez nos enfants" un "ennemi public". Le 24 avril dernier, après une attaque au couteau à Nantes, François Bayrou avait fait renforcer les contrôles inopinés et les fouilles des sacs devant les établissements scolaires. Il avait également demandé "des propositions concrètes en matière de prévention, de réglementation et de répression pour endiguer le phénomène des violences commises par les mineurs avec des armes blanches". Un rapport avait été remis en mai avec une série de propositions : interdiction de la vente, directe comme en ligne, des armes zombies, vidéoprotection et interdiction des téléphones portables dans les établissements scolaires… Parallèlement, le gouvernement entend interdire l'accès aux réseaux sociaux aux mineurs de moins de 15 ans, en imposant aux plateformes la vérification de l'âge au moment de la création d'un compte. Mais il s'est heurté, pour l'instant, en Europe, à des questions techniques et de compatibilité avec le droit communautaire.

Le 10 juin 1942, le petit village tchécoslovaque de Lidice, situé près de Prague, est rayé de la carte par les nazis. Tous les hommes sont exécutés, les femmes déportées et les enfants envoyés à la mort ou à la germanisation. Ce massacre est l'un des plus tragiques de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, une vengeance brutale après l'assassinat d'un haut dignitaire nazi.L'assassinat de Reinhard Heydrich : le déclencheurTout commence avec l'Opération Anthropoid, une mission secrète menée par des résistants tchécoslovaques entraînés par les Britanniques. Leur cible : Reinhard Heydrich, l'un des hommes les plus puissants du Troisième Reich, surnommé le "Boucher de Prague" en raison de sa politique de terreur en Bohême-Moravie.Le 27 mai 1942, les résistants Jan Kubiš et Jozef Gabčík tendent une embuscade à Heydrich alors qu'il circule en voiture à Prague. Grièvement blessé par l'explosion d'une grenade, il meurt de septicémie quelques jours plus tard. Furieux, Hitler ordonne une répression exemplaire.Lidice : une cible innocenteLes nazis cherchent un village à anéantir en guise d'avertissement. Lidice est désigné sur la base d'un faux soupçon : un habitant du village aurait eu un lien avec les assassins de Heydrich. Sans preuve réelle, les SS passent immédiatement à l'action.Un massacre organiséLe 10 juin 1942, les troupes nazies encerclent Lidice et exécutent sur place tous les hommes âgés de plus de 15 ans : 173 sont fusillés contre un mur de grange.Les 184 femmes sont déportées vers le camp de concentration de Ravensbrück, où beaucoup mourront d'épuisement ou de mauvais traitements.Les 88 enfants sont séparés de leurs mères. Certains sont envoyés en camp d'extermination, notamment à Chelmno, où ils sont gazés. Seuls quelques enfants au profil "aryen" sont sélectionnés pour être rééduqués en Allemagne et confiés à des familles nazies.Lidice disparaît de la cartePour effacer toute trace du village, les nazis rasent Lidice.

Stephen King est sans conteste l'un des écrivains les plus prolifiques et influents de notre époque. Avec plus de 350 millions d'exemplaires vendus et une imagination débordante, il a su marquer la littérature contemporaine. Pourtant, il y a un roman dont il ne garde pratiquement aucun souvenir : Cujo.Publié en 1981, Cujo raconte l'histoire terrifiante d'un saint-bernard infecté par la rage qui sème la terreur. Un roman intense et angoissant, dont King lui-même admet ne pas se souvenir de l'écriture. La raison ? À cette époque, l'auteur était profondément dépendant à l'alcool et à la cocaïne. Dans son autobiographie Écriture : Mémoires d'un métier, il confesse que son addiction était si sévère qu'il retrouvait souvent son bureau jonché de canettes de bière vides et de mouchoirs tachés de sang, conséquence de son usage intensif de cocaïne. Ce mode de vie frénétique lui a permis d'écrire à un rythme effréné, mais au prix de souvenirs brumeux, voire inexistants, de certaines de ses œuvres.Mais ce n'est pas la seule anecdote surprenante concernant Stephen King. Parmi les faits les plus étonnants, on peut citer son refus initial de publier Carrie (1974), son tout premier roman. Frustré par le début de l'histoire, il jeta les premières pages à la poubelle. C'est sa femme, Tabitha King, qui les récupéra, le convainquant de poursuivre. Une décision qui changea sa vie : Carrie fut un succès retentissant, lançant définitivement sa carrière.Autre fait marquant : en 1999, King fut victime d'un grave accident. Alors qu'il marchait au bord d'une route dans le Maine, il fut percuté par un van conduit par un chauffard distrait. Grièvement blessé, il subit plusieurs opérations et faillit perdre l'usage d'une jambe. L'ironie du sort ? King racheta plus tard le véhicule qui l'avait percuté… pour le détruire.Enfin, si King est connu pour ses romans d'horreur, il a également écrit sous le pseudonyme de Richard Bachman. Pourquoi ? Il voulait savoir si son succès était dû à son talent ou simplement à son nom. Résultat ? Même sous un autre pseudonyme, ses livres se vendaient.Ainsi, malgré ses excès et ses démons, Stephen King demeure un maître du suspense et de l'horreur, capable de transformer ses épreuves en récits captivants.

In this episode of the ESG Insider podcast, we're covering key takeaways from COP16, the UN's major biodiversity conference that just wrapped up in Cali, Colombia. The conference convened countries from around the world, and we hear about key outcomes of government negotiations in an interview with Astrid Schomaker, Executive Secretary of the UN Convention on Biological Diversity. We also hear about the large private sector presence at COP16, which reflects companies' growing understanding of the links between nature loss and climate change. We also hear about rising private sector recognition of the importance of including Indigenous peoples and local communities in decisions about nature. To learn more, we discuss the outlook for nature disclosure and standards with Andrea Pradilla, who is Latin America Director of the sustainability standards organization Global Reporting Initiative, or GRI. We learn about the landscape for financing for nature — including through biodiversity credits — in a conversation with Sébastien Soleille, Global Head of Energy Transition and Environment at big French bank BNP Paribas. To understand the data challenges companies face when measuring and managing their nature risks and dependencies, we talk to Divya Mankikar, Global Head of Strategy for the Corporate Ecosystem at S&P Global Sustainable1. And we look ahead to another big UN gathering taking place in Latin America — the climate-focused COP30 that Brazil will host in 2025. We talk to Eron Bloomgarden, Founder and CEO of Emergent, a nonprofit involved in a recently announced $180 million deal the Brazilian state of Pará signed to support its efforts to combat deforestation.

Corey Coates (00:01:23) - You're listening to the show that has created more financial freedom than nearly any show in the world. This is get rich education. Keith Weinhold (00:01:39) - What we heard in 188 nations worldwide. I'm your host, Keith Weinhold, and you're listening to get Rich education. Last week, I covered a lot of bad news here as you and I uncovered some real estate problems. Of course, overall, when you're invested in real estate and obtain productive working income for yourself through tenants in their employment, you can almost always play another side of the coin and be profitable because, well, it really comes right back to the fact that real estate pays five ways simultaneously, for example, souring housing affordability. Well, that's bad for homeowners. That's bad news for people that are primarily want to be homeowners and not you. You're an investor. In fact, here's exactly what that means when you're the investor, the homeownership rate has fallen in in the past year. Keith Weinhold (00:02:38) - It's gone from 66% down to 65.6% due to that low affordability. Okay. Well, that's just a 4/10 of a percent drop in the homeownership rate. And it is poised to fall further. Or what does that 4/10 really mean. Well, that's the proportion of Americans that don't own their homes. So then they have to rent. And this means that there are hundreds of thousands more American renters today than there were just a year ago. And that pushes up rental demand, rental occupancy and the price of rent itself. And that's what you get to capture off from a low affordability problem, which outsiders only think of as bad real estate news, because it is bad news through the lens of that one of your first time homebuyer. Now I want to tell you about the property types that are disappearing. Just vanishing today, and it's the degree to which it's happening that you probably aren't aware of. I'll also tell you why it's personally concerning to me, why this is all going on at all, and I don't even see any reason that it's going to turn around. Keith Weinhold (00:03:52) - It's probably going to get worse. What's going on is basically that too many builders have thrown their duplex, triplex, and fourplex development plans out the car window like it's an Apple Corps on a summer road trip. They are vanishing. Yes, 2 to 4 unit properties vanishing. In fact, if you're a newsletter subscriber here, you got to see a jarring chart that shows this. And what you'll basically see is that in 2007, the number of 2 to 4 unit properties built just fell off a cliff. It flatlined, and it still hasn't gotten up. The amount constructed now is still just one half to one third of what it had been in pre global financial crisis years. Really they're only closer to a third. All right. So what we're talking about here is only about one third as many duplex triplex and fourplex starts today as there were 20 years ago. And this is sourced by the National Association of Homebuilders. And some call this entire phenomenon M triple M multi families missing middle. And whatever you call this disappearing act. Keith Weinhold (00:05:10) - Before I get to the reasons for why this is happening, I've got to tell you that this disappearance, it hurts me a little. It's sort of heartfelt because as you know, I began this way with a fourplex that was my first ever property of any kind. You know, the story where I lived in one unit and rented out the other three. It was just an amazing way to start with a bang. Well, now, when we compare this paltry construction, this dearth of. construction today, when we compare that to both smaller property types and larger property types, that being single family homes and five plus unit apartment buildings, will construction of all three of these types fell hard around 2008. But here's the thing. Single family homes and five plus apartment buildings. They got back up around 2010 and they started resuming more building. But duplexes and fourplex, they never did. They never had that happen. The number coming out of the market that just kept flatlining. Those new starts. All right. Keith Weinhold (00:06:16) - So why exactly is this going on with these vanishing 2 or 3 and four unit property construction types? Why this trend? Well, first, it's NIMBYism, not in my backyard ism primarily of those single family homeowners, because once people are comfy in owning their single family home. Well, then they don't want higher density duplexes in fourplex built in their area. They fear that it can lower their property values. It'll almost certainly increase the traffic around that area. And the second reason is that there simply just been less building overall of most all housing types. And I have discussed this elsewhere, so I won't get into it again. Yes, it is that erstwhile housing supply crash. A third reason for these vanishing 2 to 4 unit properties is the need for zoning reform and the adoption of what's called light touch density. Light touch density. That means a zoning strategy for more dense housing. And what are we up to now for? The fourth reason is that builders, they find more scale efficiencies when they build larger apartments. Keith Weinhold (00:07:25) - Fifth is limits in international building codes, in international residential codes. And the sixth reason is that this trend began around 2008. These more recent work from home lifestyle starting in 2020. That means that residents can live in single family homes, and they tend to be further from the urban core, rather than 2 to 4 unit properties. And this lifestyle trend right here, that can mean that this disappearing trend for this property type continues. And there you go. They are the six reasons for why. If you were 2 to 4 unit properties are being built today, drastically fewer. And I lament this fact because see duplex the four plex neighborhoods, they can have good walkability where you don't always need a car to get everywhere. And yet at the same time, they still have ample green space. Now, conversely, some fourplex neighborhoods, you know, they can get to look and really junky. Well, they all have different owners. And then there are dumpsters all over the place, like my first fourplex was, and like my second fourplex was as well. Keith Weinhold (00:08:33) - I really hope that builders become more attracted to the 2 to 4 unit space. See, with giant large apartment complexes, say 300 units. Well, the builder has to wait until the construction of all of those 300 units are done until they can start filling it with rent paying tenants. So therefore builders have to wait longer to start getting that rent income. But instead, construction of this missing middle housing that can be broken into phases. And that way units can be open when they're completed. And that provides early rent revenue to the builder and 2 to 4 unit properties. I mean, they really are an investor sweet spot, but due to builder and lifestyle trends like I'm describing, fewer are being built new. But please remember there were many missing middle properties built decades ago and they can still make good investment properties into the future. In fact, the first two fourplex that I bought were both built in the mid 80s, so there's still plenty that are already out there. The takeaway here for you is that you're going to be seeing fewer new ones, and that means that duplexes to fourplex is now take up a smaller proportion of America's housing stock, and that portion is positioned to become smaller and smaller going forward. Keith Weinhold (00:09:56) - So it's not that death of these properties. We even have home builders at Gray Marketplace right now with new build 2 to 4 plex. So it isn't their death, but they are dying, waning in number. Now, Jerry recently got Ahold of some jaw dropping info here. I my gosh, now remember a few years ago, maybe even ten or more years ago when you probably heard something like certain small towns in California, Silicon Valley. They now had median priced homes that hit the million dollar mark. And you know, when you first heard that, you might have thought, oh, wow, it's not just neighborhoods, but entire towns in aggregate have hit the million dollar mark in some high priced American places. Well, then get ready for this. As housing affordability makes headlines in California in its wealthiest cities, continue to fight building more housing. We have two Bay area counties, not towns, but entire counties that have hit a milestone. The median price for sold homes there has climbed to $2 million or more. Keith Weinhold (00:11:15) - We're not just talking 1 million anymore, and we're not just talking about one upper crust town, but two entire California counties now have median home prices of $2 million or more. And notice these are not asking prices. No speculation here. These are the values, the amounts that they have actually sold for. And this is according to a recent California Association of Realtors report. Median homes are now $2 million plus in which two Bay area counties, you might wonder? Well, first, Santa Clara County, which includes San Jose, they notched an even $2 million back in April. And yes, this is more than San Francisco County's $1.8 million. And the second county, it spirals even higher than that. The second California county, with median home prices of 2 million plus is San Mateo County. It's basically a county that lies between San Francisco and San Jose. And that's where the median home price sold for in San Mateo County, California, $2.17 million. Not just one upper crust town, but an entire county. Keith Weinhold (00:12:38) - Not just $1 million, not even $2 million anymore, but $2.17 million. And this is not for a fancy, lavish home. This is just the median priced home in the middle and San Mateo County that is home to the nation's most expensive zip code, by the way. Atherton, California, where the median home price tops the charts nationally at $7.1 million. That's that is according to Compass Real Estate. And if that's not enough, homes are still flying off the shelves there. They're days on market is now at the lowest since 2022. And though all this sounds pretty astonishing right now, you know what? If you are listening to this episode ten years from now, well into the 2030s, you might think these were the good old days here. How quaint. Because over the next ten years, we all expect more inflation, and we've still got more housing shortage years between now and say, ten years into the future. And of course, here at URI, we don't tend to focus on the high priced markets, which tend to be on the coasts, things like this. Keith Weinhold (00:13:55) - Really, it's just a harbinger of what's to come to more parts of the nation later on. What we do here is we help you win in real estate without being a landlord and without being a flipper. As a savvy investor that tends to buy either new or fixed up properties and might have a manager manage them for you, hands off is the place to be. Hands off is being an investor, and you get the best tax advantages this way to when your hands off and you know something. Some people that get into real estate investing, they think that they have to be a flipper, or that they have to be a landlord in order to make it profitable. Now, there's nothing wrong with those two disciplines. So much flipping or landlord. I was a landlord for a little while on my own properties. Most of my investment career. I use a property manager and I never flipped. It's just that these things flipping and landlord, they're not any sort of prerequisite to you being a successful investor. You can shortcut all of that with turnkey real estate investing or like with a different strategy that we're going to talk about later today. Keith Weinhold (00:15:04) - What most people really want is the financial freedom that real estate investing brings. But in order to get there, it's often not the route that you think it is. It's typically not flipping or landlords. And, you know, really it's this way with a lot of things. For example, say that you want to own in ice cream business. Well, most people think that they have to start their own ice cream business from scratch. And like you need to find a space and you need to buy all the equipment and develop systems and go through the excruciating process of hiring all of your staff. No, a lot of times you can shortcut all of that by not starting your own ice cream business, but instead studying, vetting, and buying an existing ice cream business without having to start your own from scratch. Be strategic, study a little, shortcut the process and get in where it's profitable. You want the benefit of owning real estate without having to use a nail gun yourself, or being a manager where you're 25 tenants can text you. Keith Weinhold (00:16:17) - What kind of life are you building for yourself? Then you want the benefit of owning an ice cream business. The way to get to the end goal. The path there is often different than you think. And here's another example that I can relate to, but I think that you will too. Do you have a favorite real estate? Influencer out there and they think about starting a podcast. Well, I personally know three real estate podcasters out there that have all quit. They produce some episodes and all three quit doing their podcast. And these are just among people I know and just real estate thought leaders. Just that space and all. Recent hosting your own podcast platform is a ton of work from. You need to have a huge bank of your own original content, to having the ability to book big name guests and then making sure they're prepared to. Making sure you have the right marketing team so that a podcast actually reaches the right people. It is work, work, work, and seemingly no one in this world knows that better than me. Keith Weinhold (00:17:21) - With 500 plus episodes reliably released every single week since 2014, and we don't replay old shows either, there is nothing passive about this. There are so many shows today that if your favorite real estate influencer starts one, they're going to be competing with a lot that are already out there. I mean, anymore, even celebrities that start podcasts, they usually don't get any substantial reach or traction. All these people that start and quit their podcasts, they were too slow to realize that actually they didn't want to host a podcast. What they really wanted is for their voice to be heard. Well, the way to shortcut that, like with turnkey real estate investing or with buying an existing ice cream business, is that that influencer should have developed a strategy for being a guest on other shows that are already popular and established, probably by hiring an experienced and connected booking agent. That way, you've outsourced all of that marketing and research activity to another show that already did that for you. So the point is, be clear on getting what you want. Keith Weinhold (00:18:34) - What is the goal that you want first, it's probably a large real estate portfolio built for leverage and income, and then work your way back to try to find the most efficient route to get there. And there are often shorter paths to get there than what you first thought. Now, when we talk about where are the best real estate deals today, you have to look harder than you did, say, 8 to 10 years ago. Coming up shortly, you'll have the pleasure of hearing an in-house chat with I in one of Gre's own investment coaches. We're going to talk about a strategy that specific and proven but underutilized in order to recapture those higher cash on cash returns like you could have gotten back in, say, 2015 and 2016. And for a time, I had been talking about how Newbuild properties and their builder interest rate buy downs, that they're really the place to be. And that's still true, but not to the extent that it was just a year ago, because today some builders, they're not paying down your interest rate for you as much as they did last year. Keith Weinhold (00:19:39) - They're asking you to pay more toward it. Now. A few minutes ago, I told you about America's vanishing duplexes to fourplex.

Keith Weinhold (00:23:36) - He helps beginning real estate investors understand the process of acquiring rental property, and he helps veteran investors optimize their strategies to save on taxes and more. Hey, it's terrific to welcome back Naresh Vizard. Thanks a lot Keith. It's been a while, but I'm looking forward to talking real estate before we're done. Today, we're going to tell you about an upcoming live GRE virtual event, where you learn how to get 20 to 25% of immediate built in equity through real estate. And before we do the race, let's talk about what's really going on. Besides giving GRE devotees free education and guidance like you do, you also help them find the best deals on income properties nationwide and for a time, brand new build to rent properties they look good in. Many still do with a lot of rate buy downs into the fives and even the fours on those new build properties. But this year, I learned that builders aren't contributing to buying down the race for the investor like they had last year, and that the onus seems to be more on the investor to buy the rate down with some of these builders. Keith Weinhold (00:24:44) - So tell us more about what's happening in America's build to rent sector. Well, Keith, build to rent. For those who don't know, it's been around here at GRA. Bill to rent asset classes, build to rent real estate. But it's the concept of builders building real estate properties with the intention of selling them to investors so they can rent it out. So right now I live in a house that was built, and I bought it because the builder intended for somebody to buy it and live in it. That's not built to rent. Build to rent is the idea of. Naresh Vissa (00:25:16) - Specifically selling it to investors like our listeners, like our loyal followers who live out of state and who want to rent the properties out to tenants. Now, Build to Rent was very hot and it's still popular. I don't want to call it hot, but it's still popular for those who want new construction properties. However, the rehabs are making a furious comeback because there was about a four year period from 2019 to 23 or so where you just couldn't find good cash flowing rehabs. Naresh Vissa (00:25:50) - Right. And when I say rehabs, I mean these older properties that were built 50 years ago, maybe as long as 120 years ago there we have some properties in our inventory that were built in the late 1800s, and they've just kept being rehabbed and rehabbed and renovated. Buildings are making a furious comeback because they're cash flowing better. Previously, they were just cash flowing marginally better than new construction built to rent properties. Now, especially with a strategy called ver, which we'll talk about some more, you can have the opportunity to get cash on cash returns back to what you remember in 2016, 2015 where we're talking 15, 16% cash on cash returns. I mean, some of our BR clients or listeners who ended up buying BRS, they're doing 2021 all the way up to 30% cash on cash returns. So BR simply means buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat the cycle. So that's B followed by for Rs b r r r r buy, rehab, rent, refinance. Repeat the process again. Naresh Vissa (00:27:10) - And it's during that refinance where investors are getting a good chunk of their down payment back. Because what happens in that refinance is after you rehab it and you read it, you rent it out at the target rent, which almost all of these are renting out at very aggressive high target rents. When you refinance it, the property appraises at a value that's much, much greater post rehab than when you initially bought it. And that's where you get essentially your money back. You can choose to keep it in with the mortgage company so you have more equity in the property, or you can take the cash back and use it to buy more BR properties. It's become a very popular. Form of real estate investing. People think when they hear this. Well, it sounds like flipping, right. This is not flipping. Flipping is kind of like day trading. You're looking to make a quick buck, whereas in this case you're not selling the property. You're keeping the property with the intention of renting it out and collecting the cash flow from your tenant. Naresh Vissa (00:28:19) - So that's in a nutshell, what BRR is. And we are having a live event on Tuesday, June 25th at 8:30 p.m. Eastern Time. That's Tuesday, June 25th at 8:30 p.m. eastern. Time to talk about and go over this BR process. The bird key process or listeners are familiar with turnkey. Well we have BR key which is similar except it's using the BR method. And Keith, you probably know this and you've talked about it a little bit on your podcast. BR has become the most popular strategy that our investors are utilizing this year, 2024. Keith Weinhold (00:29:01) - Yeah. Now back to the build to render the new build properties is attractive as they can be because they attract a certain quality of tannin and they're not going to have any maintenance or repair issues, most likely for quite a while. The thing with those is, oh, you might pay 300 K or more for a new build. Single family home in the builder rent style with 20% down payment, 5% for closing costs, you're out of pocket. 75 K. Keith Weinhold (00:29:30) - One reason that this has become the most popular strategy for gray followers we're talking about here. The BR strategy is that you could come out of pocket with a lot less to begin with. Naresh Vissa (00:29:42) - That's number one. Number one is we have some GRE followers who went into this Berkey and they put no money down. They got lucky. They initially bought the property, and the property appraised so much that they got their money back and their down payment was actually zero. They didn't make money on it, but what they allocated, what they thought that they would allocate 25% down, they ended up using that money since they got it back to buy a second property and then a third property and then a fourth party. We have one guy who bought six properties, all birds, because he didn't get I don't want to say, look, we're not making promises that you're going to put 0% down. That's not the promises that we're making. The worst case scenario is that you put 25% down and that's your standard real estate investment. Naresh Vissa (00:30:27) - But there is a chance that you could put 15% down or 10% down if the rehab turns out really well. And if you get a good appraiser, there's a chance it can happen. But the goal here, again, is not to make a quick buck or to house hack. We're not taking shortcuts here. The goal here is simply to buy a property renovated or rehab it and drive up the rent price, drive up the value of the property, put a good tenant in there and call it a day. Collect those cash flows. Now I do want to say a few things about that process. So like I said, the first thing that you do is you buy. So first you buy, then you rehab. You do not have to do we call it Berkey because everything is done for you. So when people hear this, they're like, oh, this sounds like I live in Florida. I don't want to go to Memphis. And by the way, this specific market is in Memphis, Tennessee that we're focusing on. Naresh Vissa (00:31:26) - We have burrs in Baltimore, Maryland and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. But we've identified Memphis as not just the hottest, but it just makes the most sense numbers wise. And so I want to go back to the point of, hey, you don't have to physically go or even go on Google and find handymen or rehab ers to do this for you, our Berkey provider. The best part is they do it all for you. It's completely taken care of. You literally just sign some papers. Once you decide that you like a property and the specs of the property, you sign some papers. They take care of it. The rehab takes about 90 days. Then from rehab to closing, it takes another 40 days or so. And then from closing to someone signing a lease that takes another 30 days to find somebody, stick them in there and takes another 30 days after that for the tenant to move in. So overall, this process can actually take just for one property. You can take six months. Keith Weinhold (00:32:26) - Now. Naresh has touched on it somewhat. One conventional problem with the Burr strategy by rehab rent, refinance, repeat is that first are the rehab because it involves vetting and managing contractors, which is a real nightmare for many. So instead, we're talking about tapping into a system with a proven team of contractors and lenders and project managers to make it easy. It's known as Berkey, and it's in profitable Memphis. Naresh Vissa (00:32:54) - Profitable Memphis. And I'll say this about Memphis, we're going to talk. Way more about this on the webinar. Highly recommend people go to GRI webinars. Com gri webinars.com. You can sign up for the webinar there. It's actually live. So this is not like something that you just can show up to whenever you want. It's a live event on Tuesday, June 25th at 8:30 p.m. Eastern Time. That's Tuesday, June 25th at 8:30 p.m. Eastern Time. Great webinars.com is how you can register. And like you said, we could have focused on Baltimore, Maryland or Pittsburgh. Memphis has really and I myself by the way, own five properties and four in Memphis proper. Naresh Vissa (00:33:42) - And one is in the Memphis area and Mississippi, a suburb of of Memphis. And this I don't want to call it a town, because Memphis used to be one of the most popular towns in the south back in the day. But this city has really come up as a result of pandemic, of population growth, of even inflation. We've seen rents go up, we've seen the population go up. Memphis is not what you think of from eight years ago. Seven years ago when I first bought my properties. I'll admit, when I bought my first property seven years ago in Memphis, I had a lot of problems with tenants. I had a lot of problems with the city. I didn't like what I was reading about the police department, just all sorts of things. Not the police department, just crime in general. And Memphis has really turned itself around. Not completely turned itself around, but it's gotten better. And we're seeing it just on the investment side because that's where we're seeing appreciation growth. My personal properties, they're up since 2020, since January 2020, I was when I closed all my last Memphis property. Naresh Vissa (00:34:49) - They're all up at least 50% in value. So it's a market that's still appreciating. But the most important thing because we are cash flow investors, not necessarily appreciation investors. It's great to get the appreciation, but the rents keep going up. And I actually today I've talked to a Berkey client, great loyal Jerry listener and follower who ended up buying three properties, and she's on her fourth one, or about to do a fourth one with this Memphis market provider. And when she told me her rents, I was blown away at how much these properties were renting for before the rehab. So it's not just the appreciation again, that goes up after the rehab, how much they were renting for before the rehab. We're talking less than $800 a month and post rehab. Her rents went up by nearly 50%, about 45% on average. House rehab is like three bedroom, one and a half bathroom. Homes initially she bought them. This is how a lot of the properties are. They only had two bedrooms and they converted one of the spaces. Naresh Vissa (00:36:05) - The rehab were converted at no extra. You know, it's all inclusive of the rehab charges. They were able to find space in a lot of these properties that were two bedrooms to create a third bedroom and turn them into three bedroom properties instead of two bedroom properties, which also improves the value of the home. And you can get another body in there and increase the rent. So, Jerry, listeners have been really, really happy with this burpee process because at the end of the day, you really do get more bang for your buck. Yes, new construction overall. It's just safer. We have tons of great new construction providers, especially in Florida, whom we recommend, but this is an alternative for those people who don't have $100,000 sitting in the bank ready to invest in a new construction, single family, or a new construction duplex. The Berkey, I mean, really all you need is about 20, $25,000 to do it. And like I said, if you get lucky, you could get a decent portion of that back after the rehab. Keith Weinhold (00:37:08) - Well, you bring up so many good points there in the race. For one thing, with real estate, you can intentionally improve the value. That's something that you cannot do if you own a stock or if you own cryptocurrency, or if you own gold, you can help control what your investment is worth. And a lot of that happens here in the rehab process. Well, the race would love to tell you more, including walking you through an example with numbers, but that's the best place for him to do it. That is on the live event next week because it is co-hosted by narration. You can join the live virtual event from the comfort of your own home. You can ask questions and have them answered in real time. It is all free and we'll also be sharing special off market Berkey inventory. In Memphis for two, three and four bedroom properties, so go ahead and attend on June 25th. Which again is next Tuesday. Be sure to register now at GR webinars.com. Just been great to walk through the Berkey. Keith Weinhold (00:38:12) - Thanks so much for coming back on the show. Naresh Vissa (00:38:14) - Thank you. It's been a pleasure. Keith Weinhold (00:38:21) - Oh good info from Gree investment coach Naresh as always. Next week's live event. That could be a bigger deal than the Paris Olympics this summer and this year's presidential election combined. Oh yes. Well, at least it expects to be more profitable for you than those other events. It will also be more entertaining when you join as an attendee live next week. Certainly more entertaining and informative than Olympic handball and Olympic race walking, no doubt about that. I don't think I've offended any race walking fans because there are only perhaps five in the world. In any case, BR is a process by which, after you buy months later, you can expect to refinance at a higher valuation since the property has been rehabbed from your initial purchase, and then you get a big chunk of your own down payment back, meaning you have less invested in the deal. And that's why you get a higher cash on cash return. Because cash and cash return all that is, is your annual cash flow divided by your initial investment or your starting equity position. Keith Weinhold (00:39:37) - The last R in BR is repeat. You can repeat sooner because you did get some of your invested cash back. And that's part of what makes the strategy so effective. Now is part of your refi. You might get a post appraisal rehab that's so high you essentially get all of your down payment money returned to you, at which point it would be an infinite return because you don't have anything invested in the deal. But you should not count on having all of it returned, just a lot of it or most of it. Next week's live event is where the BR real estate investing strategy gets introduced to a wider swath of America one last time. Attend live next Tuesday. The 25th. I really encourage you to check it out. Be sure to sign up for the virtual GRE live event now! It's pretty quick and easy to do at GR webinars.com. Until next week, I'm your host, Keith Weintraub.
