"I can't sell Harman because there's a dealer too close to me, but I'd donate a kidney and my firstborn to get it." In this episode, Tim sits down with Dane Harman, Karen Harman-Smeltz, and Peter Parsons to trace how a burn pot rooted in anthracite coal became the backbone of one of the hearth industry's most beloved pellet stoves—and what it takes to keep innovating decades later. Dane built Harman Stoves into a legend, Karen carried its values forward, and Peter built a pellet market from almost nothing on an island ninety miles out in the Atlantic. In this episode, Tim, Dane, Karen, and Peter cover: - Why Dane's 1991 Pellet Pro feeder still works today—and how a coal-pushing block evolved into a laser-cut slide plate that runs entirely on temperature. - The real difference between a private company's "right" decision and a public one's—and why a profitable model can still get killed to protect a stock price. - Whether tightening EPA regulations actually force better stoves or just strip the fun out of innovation—and where diminishing returns turn good intentions into expensive ones. Don't miss the moment Dane explains why deciding—truly deciding—pulls a whole team behind you, because this conversation about fire, family, and pressure-fueled innovation will change how you think about building anything worth keeping. —— Links from this episode: Big Enough: Building a Business that Scales with Your Lifestyle https://a.co/d/0e8WRuD7 Fire Time Podcast Q&A Episode http://itsfiretime.com/ask —— Watch this podcast on YouTube: https://youtu.be/nXru0bLymCQ Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-fire-time-podcast/id1433804268 Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4vHdzg48bE5qFf0KjMeMej?si=7b6cae3923d348f2 Read The Fire Time Magazine: https://www.itsfiretime.com/magazine Subscribe to The Fire Time Magazine: https://itsfiretime.com/subscribe Support The Fire Time Podcast financially: https://www.itsfiretime.com/join

We say "I've got nothing to wear" standing in front of a full wardrobe. Samantha Harman's argument is that the sentence has nothing to do with clothes — it's about not knowing who we're supposed to be. In this episode I talk to best-selling author, stylist and former journalist Samantha Harman about her book Just Get Dressed: Why You Have Nothing to Wear and What to Do About It — a styling book with no pictures and no body-shape rules, built instead around the inner work most of us avoid. It's a conversation about generational trauma, the prehistoric brain, the martyrdom of the women in the squeezed middle, and why getting dressed in the morning is so flipping hard. What we cover: Why "nothing to wear" is never about a lack of clothes... and what your wardrobe is actually a manifestation of (beliefs, identity, class, politics, generational trauma) The problem with the personal styling industry: more rules, more prescription, more exhaustion Epigenetics and the prehistoric brain — why being a visible woman registers as dangerous, and why the fabulous outfit stays on the hanger Clothing as a business tool — and why men have always been allowed to use it while women get judged for it The "bag of potatoes" meeting: how an ill-fitting supermarket shirt quietly costs you authority, presence and opportunity The compare-and-despair cycle and the social-media misery machine: and the reminder that all of it, even "authentic" personal brands, is marketing Enclothed cognition: why what you wear changes the actions you take (and how you handle Barry from accounts) Midlife as an opportunity, not a decline — finances, time, intelligence, and finding the rooms with brilliant women in them Two exercises from the book: meeting the 5-year-old who's really running your wardrobe, and the letter from your 90-year-old self Emotional spending, scarcity tactics and how retailers weaponise your feelings — plus the fast-fashion harm hiding behind "retail therapy" The wardrobe edit as a non-negotiable business activity — and the one thing to do first: get rid of what you hate Find Samantha here: Just Get Dressed: Why You Have Nothing to Wear and What to Do About It - available on Amaz*n, or justgetdressed.com https://www.instagram.com/styleeditoruk/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/samantha-harman-style-editor/ Enjoyed this episode?  Follow Middling Along wherever you listen, and consider leaving a review — it genuinely helps other midlife women find the show.

To celebrate JBL's 80th anniversary, Audio Talks continues its new season with host Oisin Lunny joined by Kyle Roche and Jeff Treige to explore why JBL remains synonymous with great sound on the road. In this episode, the conversation dives into JBL's long‑standing partnership with Toyota, unpacking how decades of collaboration have shaped premium in‑car audio and elevated the driving experience for millions of listeners around the world. Tracing the evolution of JBL and Toyota's sound partnership from its origins in the late 1990s to today's globally scaled systems, Kyle and Jeff reveal how JBL's Sonic DNA is carefully translated from concert stages and studios into the unique acoustic environment of the car cabin. From the emotional power of loud‑and‑clear sound to the craftsmanship behind tuning, technology and collaboration, the discussion explores how automotive audio influences brand perception, personal identity and everyday moments behind the wheel — and what the future holds as vehicles become more immersive, connected and autonomous.

"It was my feeder and burn pot, they decided to make their own burn pot and change the design. That's where things didn't work very well for very long..." In this episode, Tim sits down with Dane Harman (founder of Harman Stoves) and his daughter Karen Harman-Smeltz for a rare father-daughter conversation about building one of America's most respected hearth companies from a basement workshop in rural Pennsylvania. From cutting stove parts with Gloria's cutting board as a template to pioneering the pellet technology that powers today's industry, this is the untold story of grit, innovation, and the $40 electric bill that changed everything. In this episode, Tim, Dane, and Karen cover: • How a shocking electric bill jump from $40 to $100 sparked the idea to build their first wood stove—using a cutting board, T-square, and acetylene torch in the basement • The evolution from welding corners by hand on the floor to precision laser cutting that's accurate to ten thousandths of an inch • How coal stoker technology accidentally birthed the pellet pro feeder system—plus the Vermont Castings partnership that launched Harman into the big leagues Don't miss this intimate look inside the mind of a true industry pioneer who went from three employees in a 40x80 building to revolutionizing an entire industry—all while never losing sight of the principle that you build to a standard, not a price. —— Watch this podcast on YouTube: https://youtu.be/pAb7YMvWWyQ Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-fire-time-podcast/id1433804268 Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4vHdzg48bE5qFf0KjMeMej?si=7b6cae3923d348f2 Read The Fire Time Magazine: https://www.itsfiretime.com/magazine Subscribe to The Fire Time Magazine: https://itsfiretime.com/subscribe Support The Fire Time Podcast financially: https://www.itsfiretime.com/join

No novo episódio do Podcast Canaltech, a gente mergulha nos bastidores da indústria de áudio para entender como são criadas as caixas de som que conquistaram o mundo e especialmente o Brasil, onde o nome JBL acabou virando sinônimo da categoria. O repórter Leo Muller conversa com Sharon Peng, vice-presidente sênior de Pesquisa de Consumo, P&D e Engenharia da Harman, empresa responsável por marcas como a JBL. Ao longo da conversa, a executiva explica como a companhia estruturou sua operação global e por que decidiu concentrar design, engenharia e desenvolvimento em Shenzhen, na China uma estratégia que impacta diretamente velocidade, custo e inovação. Sharon também relembra o surgimento de linhas icônicas como a Flip e a Boombox, que ajudaram a popularizar o conceito de caixas de som portáteis.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with restaurant owner and activist Harman Singh Kapoor.We begin with his arrest after posting a video defending himself and his family, following years of harassment, threats, and attacks linked to his refusal to serve halal meat at his restaurant. Kapoor explains why he believes he was targeted by the police, how the incident unfolded, and why he sees it as evidence of two-tier policing and institutional failure.The conversation explores rising community tensions, the role of radicalism, and the failures of law enforcement to protect ordinary citizens. Kapoor describes repeated incidents of intimidation, the breakdown of trust in the police, and why he believes the state is no longer upholding equal protection under the law.We also discuss his Sikh identity, the history of Sikhism as a warrior tradition, and how his beliefs shape his sense of duty, patriotism, and activism in Britain today. He reflects on immigration, integration, and why he believes more immigrants should stand up for British values and national identity.Finally, we examine his political activism, his break with figures on the British right, and the personal cost of speaking out, from financial loss to ongoing threats against him and his family.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------WATCH THE EXTENDED AND AD-FREE CONVERSATION HERE: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chapters00:00 Introduction00:59 Why Harman Refuses to Serve Halal Meat03:03 Harassment Campaign & Police Inaction05:00 Mob Outside Restaurant & Arrest Within 30 Minutes07:19 Claims of Violence, Car Attacks & Lack of Protection10:00 “Two-Tier Policing” & Previous Arrest13:41 Why He Put Up the “Non-Halal” Sign14:43 “My Fight Is With the Establishment”16:23 Protests, Activism & Backlash From Sikh Community18:29 Grooming Gangs & Community Response25:00 Sikh Identity, Patriotism & Loyalty to Britain27:00 Fallout With Tommy Robinson33:38 Sikh Radicalism, Khalistan & Internal Conflict44:11 British Identity, Immigration & Integration49:15 Restaurant Rebrand & Refusal to Back Down Hosted on Acast.
