Podcasts about high end

PREVIEW Brendan Weichert comments on the US-China AI race. While executives suggest China might win, the US has restricted sales of high-end chips, fearing misuse. China claims chip breakthroughs are imminent. Both sides are developing rapidly: China appears stronger in robotics, while the US maintains a lead in AI software development. Guest: Brendan Weichert.

Chris Riegel, CEO of SCALA.com, states that Chinese claims of matching Nvidia's high-end chip success are largely propaganda, though China mandates domestic chip use. The US holds the AI "pole position." AI is a genuine profit driver, worth trillions to GDP, with material workforce impact expected by 2026. Guest: Chris Riegel

Varmt välkommen till ett nytt avsnitt av Retail & Fastighetspodden. I dagens avsnitt ska vi ta med er på en resa från bambutandborstar på Stockholmsbörsen till Europas största tandläkarklinik på Sveavägen. I detta avsnitt möter vi Noel Abdayem, tandläkaren och serieentreprenören som vill förändra en hel bransch. Noel grundade The Humble Company, idag en del av Humble Group med över 50 bolag och en omsättning på 8 miljarder kronor. Nu är han aktuell med sitt nya flaggskepp Dentme, ett dentalvarumärke som utmanar hela tandvårdssystemet. Med 1 600 kvm på Sveavägen, design i världsklass och en prenumerationsmodell för 149 kronor i månaden vill Dentme skapa en helt ny upplevelse av tandvård - transparent, tillgänglig och inspirerande. Modellen är oberoende av Försäkringskassan, vilket gör den lika relevant i Stockholm som i Oslo eller Köpenhamn. Bakom Dentme står även Noels investmentbolag NCPA Capital och en tung investerargrupp. Målet? Att bygga Europas första internationella dentalvarumärke med 25 kliniker och 2 miljoner medlemmar. I dagens avsnitt pratar vi också om varför Noel tycker att tandvården är trasig, hur en fastighet kan bli nyckeln till att förändra en hel bransch, och vad som krävs för att ta en traditionell vårdtjänst och göra den till ett konsumentvarumärke i världsklass. Trevlig lyssning!

Host Bill Hamblet talks with Navy Lieutenant Seth C. Breen about his recent CIMSEC article on SWO tactical qualifications and his article "The Nimitz Way Still Applies" published last year in Proceedings.

Jeffrey Epstein used fine dining not just for pleasure, but as a weapon of influence. His presence in elite restaurants like Le Cirque, Nobu, and Cipriani wasn't about the food — it was about power. These venues served as neutral ground where billionaires, academics, and politicians could meet under the guise of sophistication. Epstein was known to host private dinners with figures such as Tim Zagat, the co-founder of Zagat Guide, and other Manhattan socialites years after his sex-offender conviction. At these tables, deals were discussed, introductions were made, and reputations were rehabilitated. To the outside world, it looked like civility and charm; in reality, it was grooming at scale — the construction of credibility through proximity. Every dinner, every photo, every handshake was another layer of legitimacy wrapped in luxury linen.The restaurant world also quietly enabled his image. Owners of trendy Hamptons and Manhattan establishments seated him like any other VIP, despite his notoriety. The owner of 75 Main in Southampton later admitted Epstein had a standing reservation — a table that was literally burned after his crimes were exposed. Behind the scenes, his private chef, Adam Perry Lang — a celebrated restaurateur connected to Hollywood's elite — cooked for Epstein's guests at both his Manhattan townhouse and his private island. These culinary connections weren't incidental; they were part of the camouflage. Fine dining gave Epstein access, privacy, and respectability. In the world of five-star meals and champagne toasts, he wasn't a predator — he was just another “important man.” And that's exactly how he kept his network alive.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The US-China Tariff Truce and AI's Market Trajectory Guest: Chris Riegel Chris Riegel discusses the temporary US-China tariff truce and Nvidia's potential re-entry into the high-end AI chip market in China. He notes retailers are currently absorbing tariff costs but anticipate price spikes in the first quarter of 2026, despite offsets from reduced energy costs. Riegel affirms that artificial intelligence is "real" and economically transformational, though market aspects may prove "bubbly," comparing the current technological stage to the "bottom of the first inning" of a major economic change. 1953

Dolly Lenz and Jenny Lenz discuss record real estate highs in the ultra-high-end Hamptons.

Five-Star Clinic: Lessons from High-End Restaurants In this episode, Doc Danny Matta unpacks what elite restaurants do differently—then maps those exact moves to cash-based PT. From the reservation experience to ambiance, “the menu,” service, and checkout, learn how details create premium value, command higher rates, and generate more referrals. Quick Ask Help us reach our mission of adding $1B in cash-based services to physical therapy: share this episode with a clinician friend or post it to your Instagram stories and tag @dannymattaPT so he can reshare! Episode Summary Reservation experience → Pre-visit touch: Don't rely on generic confirmations. Call/text with directions, parking, “what to expect,” and a 1–2 day pre-visit email from the actual provider. Ambiance → Your space: Design matters. Lighting, smell, layout, materials, music, branding—create an intentional feel your ideal patient loves (and wants to refer into). Menu → Productized services: Name and package outcomes (e.g., “Pain-Free Performance Plan,” “Athlete Optimization”). Present options with a clean pricing sheet and a confident recommendation. Service → Clinical excellence + standards: Providers are your brand. Hold the standard on punctuality, communication, dress, outcomes, and EQ. Coach up or move on. Checkout → Frictionless finish + surprise & delight: Card on file, painless renewals, small “day-one” gifts (e.g., mobility tools), and handwritten thank-you notes. Premium perception: Details separate you from commodity clinics, justify higher prices, improve hiring/retention, and grow word-of-mouth. Lessons & Takeaways Details are the brand: Senses and systems create perceived value before treatment starts. Curate the offer: Productize services and tie them to outcomes—not visit counts. Own the recommendation: Be definitive with prognosis and plan; don't talk patients out of yes. Invest in the room: Space design is a growth investment, not a cost center. Mindset & Motivation The standard is the standard: High-performing teams protect the bar—and A-players expect it. Experience > price: When the experience is elite, price sensitivity drops. Steal like an operator: Study elite brands (restaurants, retail, studios) and adapt their best ideas. Pro Tips for Owners Pre-visit provider email: 2 days before, introduce yourself, set expectations, share a clinic video. Design the senses: Lighting plan, signature scent, music policy, brand palette, signage. Pricing sheet = menu: Clean layout, outcome-named plans, clear primary recommendation. Frictionless billing: Card on file, pay-in-full or monthly plan, one-tap renewals. Wow moment: Day-one useful gift (e.g., mobility balls) bundled into care—don't nickel & dime. Notable Quotes “In world-class restaurants the details are the experience. Your clinic is no different.” “Your pricing sheet is your menu—curate it, name it, and recommend with confidence.” “Patients buy outcomes and experience, not minutes on a table.” Action Items Write a pre-visit SOP: admin call + provider intro email + directions/parking. Audit your space for lighting, scent, music, and signage—fix one item this week. Rename and package your top 2–3 offers into outcome-based plans. Implement card on file and simplify renewals. Buy day-one gifts for all new plans of care and add handwritten thank-you cards.

In today's Daily Fix:Hot off the heels of their ASUS collab, the ROG Xbox Ally X, Xbox president Sarah Bond has said that the next Xbox will be a 'premium' console/PC hybrid with a 'very high-end, curated experience.' This has lead many to speculate that the next Xbox following the Series X and S will be considerably more expensive, akin to high-end gaming PCs (a mid-range gaming PC already costs upwards of a thousand dollars). In related news, the price of Xbox development kits has gone up, but considerably more compared to retail consoles. Series X and S dev kits are now selling for $2,000, up 25% from $1,500. And finally, Xbox Game Pass Wave 2 for October has been revealed, and The Outer Worlds 2 leads the pack.

Michael Gunther measures consumer spending power, looking through the lens of whether retailers are seeing transaction sizes rise. “Pricing increases have started to appear where consumers are actually spending money,” he says. “Thus far though…they're not seeing declines in demand yet.” He also notes that even discount retailers like Walmart (WMT) or even dollar stores are trying to cater to high-income consumers as that sector trades down.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

“Dark money” — meaning funds whose sources are hidden or obscured — has become deeply embedded in the U.S. real estate market through opaque ownership structures and all-cash deals that evade public scrutiny. Wealthy buyers, including foreign investors, often purchase property via shell companies, trusts, or limited liability corporations (LLCs), effectively masking the identity of the ultimate beneficial owners. In major markets like New York, Miami, and Boston, a significant share of real estate is owned via corporate entities, making it difficult for regulators and the public to trace who is behind high-value deals.Because many high-value and all-cash transactions bypass traditional banking and lending scrutiny, they provide an ideal channel for laundering illicit funds or moving capital anonymously. Estimates suggest that as much as 20–30 percent of U.S. residential real estate purchases are made without financing, making them harder to monitor.   Until recently, real estate professionals had little obligation to report beneficial ownership or cash-based transactions, but new rules from the Treasury's FinCEN will mandate reporting for residential all-cash sales involving entities or trusts beginning December 2025—an attempt to pull back the curtain on dark money in the housing market.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

We kick off Part 1 with collector Zach Tarhini sharing a cautionary tale about a high-end Lionel Messi card deal that went sideways after paying by PayPal Goods & Services. Zach explains how the seller linked to Metaverse Cards refused to refund, PayPal twice ruled against him, and why their “for resale” carve-out left him exposed. We talk practical safeguards for private transactions, alternatives to consider, and how this kind of outcome could affect hobby confidence. Dan Bliss of Front Row Card Show joins at the end and reacts from a show-runner's point of view. Highlights The deal: targeting a 2022 World Cup Messi Impeccable/Imminence auto and why Zach felt safe using Goods & Services What went wrong: refund refusal, dispute timeline, and PayPal closing in the seller's favor The fine print: how a “for resale” interpretation can negate buyer protection Risk management: reputational checks, marketplace layers, notes in payment, and when to prefer in-person deals Broader impact: how fear around payments could ripple into bidding and liquidity Dan Bliss on best practices for show transactions Support the show Subscribe, rate, and review Sports Cards Live.

Jeremy welcomes Adam Martin (Dave & Adam's Card World) for a deep dive on the hobby's biggest pivot: Topps/Fanatics taking over the NBA license and what it means for Panini, breakers, and LCSs. Adam lays out the near-term timeline around Topps' Oct 23 launch, why Panini isn't going away (expect player-licensed basketball), and how pricing and allocations could shift as Fanatics spreads product more widely. They get tactical for shop owners and breakers, dynamic pricing, the loss of Flawless/Treasure margins, and why high-end basketball may thin out initially while Topps builds premium brands. On live commerce, they compare Whatnot vs. Fanatics Live vs. eBay Live, and talk through the risk/reward if Fanatics favors breakers on its own platform. Macro factors hit the table too: Walmart's booth at the National, GameStop's hobby push, distributors pivoting (hello, Pokémon), and how World Cup Prism keeps catalyzing soccer. The segment closes on market psychology: the $12.93M Jordan–Kobe Logoman, Kevin O'Leary's capital, whether modern records trigger more supply, and why the best copies may disappear into “forever collections.” Insight-packed, candid, and grounded—this is your field guide to the post-license-swap era.

High-end art is attractive to money launderers because the market is opaque, illiquid by design, and driven by subjective valuations that are easy to manipulate. Buyers can hide beneficial ownership behind shell companies, trusts and intermediaries, buy works in private sales or through friendly galleries (avoiding the transparency of public auctions), and then re-sell or re-collateralize the pieces to convert illicit cash into apparently legitimate wealth. Criminals exploit briefcases of cash, friendly dealers, falsified provenance and inflated invoices to mask the origin of funds; they also use tactics like “wash” trades or reciprocal purchases between related collectors to inflate prices and justify large transfers that look like ordinary art commerce but are actually value-shifting schemes. Because many transactions are routed through offshore vehicles and art advisors who act as gatekeepers, tracing ultimate ownership and the money trail is often slow and difficult for investigators.Beyond simple purchases and sales, art can be used as collateral for loans, leased, or held in freeports and bonded warehouses where paperwork and customs oversight are limited—allowing assets to be moved or monetized while avoiding immediate scrutiny. Regulators and investigators have also documented cases where artworks were used to hide or re-domesticate funds tied to corruption, sanctions evasion, and organized crime: opaque sales are followed by loans or resale that produce clean bank records, or by transfers through jurisdictions with weak AML controls. That combination of subjective pricing, private dealing, offshore structures, and weak reporting obligations has prompted global watchdogs and lawmakers to press for tighter anti-money-laundering rules in the art market.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
