Podcasts about Horton

What do you do when you're handed the keys to something that looks like it's falling apart?Aaron Burke sits down with Pastor Evon Horton to talk about when he stepped into leadership at one of the most iconic churches in revival history—Brownsville Assembly of God in Pensacola, Florida. Crowds dwindled, momentum faded, and everything felt like it was ending. In this honest conversation, he opens up about stepping into that tension, battling fear, and how God met him in the pressure.

It seems that God is seeking to draw all of us closer to Him. How close are you to the Lord? Where do you have compromises? Where do your personal values counter God's eternal, Kingdom values? To what sin do you easily yield to? Selfishness? Pride? Anger? Gossip? Self-promotion? Lust? Pornography? Fornication? Harmful habits like smoking, alcohol consumption, overeating? Worry? Drug addiction? God is asking us to lay aside distractions before Jesus returns, so that His power and glory can flow unhindered through us. The greatest move of God the world has ever seen is right in front of us! He wants us to get ready for it!

In this riveting episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, hosts Sean V. Bradley and LA Williams invite powerhouse guest Ted Horton. Together, they delve into the transformative potential of generative artificial intelligence in the automotive sales industry.  "What if you could do this in minutes instead of spending a month creating 1,000 videos?" - Ted Horton The conversation demonstrates how AI technology, particularly generative AI, can be seamlessly integrated to promote efficiency, optimize customer interactions, and ultimately drive sales. With a focus on utilizing generative AI for creating personalized video content, this episode decodes how businesses can leverage automated, customized communications to elevate their competitive edge. "People prefer video... Video increases read open rates, increases engagements, increases appointments, and increases shows." - Sean V. Bradley The central theme of this episode revolves around harnessing AI to augment dealership operations, particularly through personalized video messaging. By automating these communications, dealerships can maintain engagement with prospects and customers alike, enhancing deal velocity and building stronger relationships. "Video bridges the gap between information and emotion. It's no longer about pushing products. It's about building relationships." - Sean V. Bradley The discussion introduces Dealer Synergy AI powered by Gan AI, a robust partnership aimed at delivering this advanced technology to dealerships, emphasizing the significant gains in both customer satisfaction and sales figures.

With over 30 years of experience, Ted has been instrumental in advancing sales strategies and integrating cutting-edge technology within the corporate environment. He is a former executive with BombBomb, and currently holds a senior executive role at Gan AI, an innovative company leading the charge in generative artificial intelligence.     The Future of Automotive Sales: Embracing The Generative AI Revolution Key Takeaways: Generative AI as a Game Changer: Video isn't just the future; it's the standard for engaging the modern car buyer with AI-driven personalized video communications. Automation and Personalization Synergy: Combining AI with CRM systems ensures personalized, consistent follow-ups, hitting the sweet spot of automation and human touch. Unparalleled Competitive Edge: Embracing Generative AI technology in a dealership's arsenal is pivotal in creating an unfair competitive advantage, significantly increasing customer engagement and sales volumes. The automotive industry isn't just turning a corner with technological innovations; it's racing down a highway of revolutionary change. At the forefront of this transformation is Generative AI, a breakthrough poised to redefine how dealerships engage with customers. As highlighted in the lively discussion from the Millionaire Car Salesman podcast, Ted Horton of GAN AI and Sean V. Bradley unveil the profound impact of AI-driven video content on dealership operations, painting a future where AI doesn't replace human effort— it amplifies it. In this comprehensive exploration, we dive deep into how Generative AI is reshaping the automotive sales landscape, emphasizing its strategic integration for maximized value and efficiency. Generative AI: Reimagining Customer Engagement In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, video content is no longer an option but an imperative. "The ability to record these avatars and have them automatically generated real time within seconds…accelerates deal velocity," Ted Horton emphasizes, illustrating the profound capabilities of Generative AI in dealership processes. By leveraging AI to create personalized, dynamic videos instantaneously, dealerships meet customers' growing expectations for immediacy and personalization, creating stronger connections and more profound engagement. Automated AI videos can now incorporate customer-specific data—like name, vehicle type, and more—into tailored communications. The result is not only an uplift in sales but a seismic shift in how relationships are formed and nurtured digitally. The phrase "Video isn't the future. It's the present" underscores the urgency of adopting such technologies. With statistics showing that video content dramatically increases customer engagement and conversion rates, it's evident that AI's role in crafting these interactions is not just advantageous but essential. CRM and AI: A Harmonious Blend for Success Central to the transformative power of Generative AI is its seamless integration with CRM systems. This synergy ensures consistency and personalization in outreach efforts. Horton notes, "Video AI," when combined with CRM automation, is like having an omnipresent BDC (Business Development Center), eliminating human errors and providing constant, tailored customer interactions. Essentially, AI orchestrates a symphony of data and communication, effectively automating what was once a manual and error-prone process. For dealerships, this harmony transcends traditional sales methodologies. As Bradley states, by "launching automation flows for easy each use case," dealerships not only streamline processes but elevate them—ensuring customers receive relevant, personalized content at every touchpoint. This strategic blueprint for AI integration into CRM systems not only enhances the customer experience but dramatically increases sales performance, offering dealerships a distinct and sustainable competitive edge. The Competitive Power of AI Video in Dealerships The extraordinary potential of Generative AI isn't just in automating video creation—it's in redefining competition within the market. Dealers utilizing AI video capabilities are observing tangible improvements in sales, as evidenced by Longo Toyota's case, which highlighted a substantial increase in sales through personalized video strategies. Bradley reinforces this notion by providing a stark warning: "Every minute, every hour, every day that you waste procrastinating… is dollars lost." By harnessing the power of Generative AI, dealerships position themselves as industry leaders—actively investing in technology that not only facilitates sales but builds robust customer relationships. The lexicon of automotive sales is thus expanded, with AI serving as a tool not of replacement, but of enhancement and opportunity. It's a call to action for dealers to pivot from antiquated methodologies towards a future enriched by AI innovation, which promises not just survival, but dominance in the competitive marketplace. Time waits for no one, as echoed in the poetic recitation towards the end, reminding us of the fleeting nature of opportunity. The automotive industry stands on the precipice of a technological renaissance, with Generative AI as the catalyst speeding this evolution. Embracing AI technologies is no longer optional but essential, enabling dealerships to break free from the constraints of traditional processes and unlock unprecedented potential. Dealerships equipped with AI capabilities aren't just adapting to change—they're defining it. As the industry continues its evolutionary journey, those daring to innovate with Generative AI and video technology will indeed lead the pack.     Resources: Podium: Discover how Podium's innovative AI technology can unlock unparalleled efficiency and drive your dealership's sales to new heights.

More than just a slogan, H-PRIDE is DeKalb's cultural blueprint, redefining how staff, students, and the community engage with one another. Horton discusses how this values-based model began as a leadership tool and evolved into a systemic movement one that's reshaping how people show up across a district of 92,000+ students.He also shares how restorative practices, de-escalation training, and community-embedded support staff (called “FACE Advocates”) have helped DeKalb reduce suspensions by thousands, while increasing connection, accountability, and trust. From internal promotions to personal mentorship of future superintendents, Horton is building a pipeline of empowered educators and modeling what it means to lead with both strategy and soul.Key Moments04:43 "Transferring Skills for Systemic Change"09:06 Weekend Mentorship for Aspiring Leaders10:03 Networking's Role in Career Fluidity14:02 "Restorative Training for School Staff"16:20 "Transformative Support for Students"Why You'll Love This Episode:Dr. Devon Horton isn't just shifting policy, he's rebuilding trust and human connection in a system long overdue for change.

Can we use AI to improve how we handle conflict? Or even to end the worst conflicts that are happening all around us? That's the subject of the new book of our guest in this episode, Simon Horton. The book has the bold title “The End of Conflict: How AI will end war and help us get on better”.Simon has a rich background, including being a stand-up comedian and a trapeze artist – which are, perhaps, two useful skills for dealing with acute conflict. He has taught negotiation and conflict resolution for 20 years, across 25 different countries, where his clients have included the British Army, the Saudi Space Agency, and Goldman Sachs. His previous books include “Change their minds” and “The leader's guide to negotiation”.Selected follow-ups:Simon HortonThe End of Conflict - book websiteThe Better Angels of our Nature - book by Steven PinkerCrime in England and Wales: year ending March 2024 - UK Office of National StatisticsHow Martin McGuinness and Ian Paisley forged an unlikely friendship - Belfast TelegraphReview of Steven Pinker's Enlightenment Now by Scott AaronsonA Detailed Critique of One Section of Steven Pinker's Chapter “Existential Threats” by Philosophy TorresEnd Times: Elites, Counter-Elites, and the Path of Political Disintegration - book by Peter TurchinWhy do chimps kill each other? - ScienceUsing Artificial Intelligence in Peacemaking: The Libya Experience - Colin Irwin, University of LiverpoolRetrospective on the Oslo Accord - New York TimesRemeshPolis - Democracy TechnologiesWaves: Tech-Powered Democracy - DemosMusic: Spike Protein, by Koi Discovery, available under CC0 1.0 Public Domain DeclarationReal Talk About MarketingAn Acxiom podcast where we discuss marketing made better, bringing you real...Listen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify Digital Disruption with Geoff Nielson Discover how technology is reshaping our lives and livelihoods.Listen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify

From energy bottlenecks to proprietary GPU ecosystems, the CEO of TensorWave, Darrick Horton explains why today's AI scale is unsustainable—and how open-source hardware, smarter networking, and nuclear power could be the fix.QUOTESDarrick Horton“The energy crisis is getting worse every day. It's very hard to find data center capacity—especially capacity that can scale. Five years ago, 10 or 20 megawatts was considered state-of-the-art. Now, 20 is nothing. The real hyperscale AI players are looking at 100 megawatts minimum, going into the gigawatt territory. That's more than many cities combined just to power one cluster.”Charna Parkey“We're still training models in a very brute-force way—throwing the biggest datasets possible at the problem and hoping something useful emerges. That's not sustainable. At some point, we have to shift toward smarter, more intentional training methods. We can't afford to be wasteful at this scale.”TIMESTAMPS[00:00:00] Introduction[00:01:00] Founding TensorWave[00:04:00] AMD as a Viable Alternative[00:08:00] Open Source as a Startup Enabler[00:09:30] Launching ScalarLM[00:12:00] ScalarLM Impact and Reception[00:14:30] Roadmap for 2025[00:16:00] Technical Advantages of AMD[00:18:00] Emerging Open Source Infrastructure[00:20:00] Broader Societal Issues AI Must Address[00:22:00] AI's Impact on Global Energy[00:26:00] Fundamental Hardware vs. Human Efficiency[00:30:00] Data Center Density Evolution[00:34:00] Advice to Founders and Tech Trends[00:38:00] AI Energy Challenges[00:44:00] AI's Rapid Impact vs. Internet[00:46:00] Monopoly vs. Democratization in AI[00:50:00] Close to Season Wrap Discussion and Predictions

The Real Estate Cycle: A Warning for 2026   Insights from Phil Anderson on the Coming Real Estate Market Crash In my conversation with renowned economist Phil Anderson, you will gain unprecedented insight into the mechanics of real estate cycles and why we are right on the precipice of the next major real estate market crash.   Anderson, author of "The Secret Life of Real Estate and Banking," presents a compelling case that combines economic theory with historical precedent to paint a picture of where we stand today – and where we're headed tomorrow.   The Foundation: Understanding Economic Rent   The Law That Economics Forgot To understand the thesis, here's a powerful analogy: just as we accept the law of gravity dictates that a dropped pencil will fall to the ground, there exists an equally immutable economic law that has been largely forgotten. Anderson calls this the "law of economic rent"  and it's the principle that all of society's gains and benefits will ultimately gravitate toward land prices.   This fundamental concept explains why we experience predictable real estate cycles. When society allows land earnings to capitalize into prices (typically representing 20 years of earnings), and banks are permitted to extend credit based on those inflated prices, a real estate cycle crash becomes inevitable. It's not a possibility – it's a mathematical certainty.   The Erasure of Land from Economics Anderson reveals a crucial historical shift that occurred after World War I. Prior to 1907, economists universally recognized three factors of production: labor, capital, and land. However, as land reform movements gained momentum and threatened established interests, there was a deliberate effort to remove land from economic textbooks entirely.   Today's economists learn only about labor and capital, treating land as merely another form of capital. This fundamental misunderstanding, Anderson argues, is why virtually no mainstream economists saw the 2008 financial crisis coming, nor will they recognize the signs of the coming downturn.   The Cycle Mechanics: Why 18-20 Years?   Historical Reliability The 18-20 year real estate cycle has been remarkably consistent throughout American history, documented back to 1800. Anderson traces this pattern through every major economic downturn: the 1920s, early 1970s, 1991, and 2008. In each case, the proximate cause wasn't what most economists claimed – it was the deflation of land prices.   The current cycle began in 2012, marking the bottom of the last downturn. We are now in year 13 of the cycle, approaching the critical 14-year mark that historically signals the beginning of the end. Here's how it works:   The Anatomy of a Cycle Anderson explains that real estate cycles run like this: The cycle is 18.6 years on average - "14 years up and 4 years down" 2012 was the bottom - Land prices peaked in 2006-2007, then had approximately 4 years down to the 2012 bottom 2026 is the projected peak - As Anderson states: "14 years up from there [2012] takes you to 2026. It really is that simple." We're currently in year 13 - From 2012 bottom + 13 years = 2025, approaching the 14-year peak in 2026 Years 13-14 are the "Winner's Curse" - The final speculative phase when "animal spirits are truly unleashed." Current Position in the Cycle This precise timing explains why Anderson identifies us as being in "the last couple of years of the cycle." All the current signals he observes - housing stocks rolling over, banking deregulation beginning, frenzied speculation in Bitcoin and cryptocurrency - point to our approach toward the 2026 peak rather than suggesting we've already arrived there. The critical insight is that we're in the dangerous final speculation phase right now. We're experiencing what Anderson calls the "Winner's Curse" period of years 13-14, when speculation reaches fever pitch and "animal spirits are truly unleashed." The peak is expected in 2026, which would then trigger the inevitable 4-year down phase running from 2026-2030. This timeline explains why Anderson emphasizes the urgency of preparation - we're not looking at some distant future event, but rather a cyclical turning point that's rapidly approaching and may have already begun.   Presidential Patterns: The Republican Connection   A Striking Historical Correlation One of Anderson's most intriguing observations concerns presidential politics. Since Abraham Lincoln's era, every final phase of a real estate cycle has coincided with a Republican president taking office. These aren't coincidences but reflect the political dynamics that emerge during speculative bubbles.   Anderson notes the historical bookend: George Washington, the first president and America's largest landowner at the time, and now Donald Trump, the 47th president and a prominent real estate developer, both representing the connection between land ownership and political power.   The Deregulation Imperative Following a predictable pattern, Republican administrations at cycle peaks immediately begin dismantling banking regulations. Anderson emphasizes this isn't partisan commentary but historical observation: "The very first thing they do is get rid of all bank regulation."   This deregulation serves a specific function in the cycle – it allows banks to engage in the aggressive lending that characterizes the final speculative phase, ultimately setting the stage for the inevitable crash.   Current Signals: Reading the Tea Leaves   Housing Stocks as Leading Indicators Anderson employs the analytical methods of legendary trader W.D. Gann to read market signals. Housing stocks – companies like Lennar, Toll Brothers, and D.R. Horton – serve as the canary in the coal mine. These stocks historically peak 1-2 years before the broader market, as analysts recognize that rising land costs will eventually squeeze builder profits.   During a brief banking scare in early 2023, while some worried about contagion, housing stocks actually made new highs - but have since peaked and rolled over and are now trending downward – a classic signal that the cycle is approaching its peak.   The Dollar Dilemma For the first time in American history, we may face a scenario where the Federal Reserve cannot lower interest rates during a recession. This stems from growing concerns about the U.S. federal deficit and potential challenges to the dollar's reserve currency status.   Anderson explains that while other countries have often faced this constraint – they cannot simply print money to solve problems – America has enjoyed "exorbitant privilege" of the dollar. However, current policies may be eroding international confidence in U.S. fiscal responsibility.   The Speculation Frenzy: Bitcoin and Beyond   Modern Manifestations of Ancient Patterns Every cycle's final phase features a speculative vehicle that captures public imagination. In the 1960s, it was oil and Boeing 747s. In the 1980s, real estate itself. In 2005-2007, it was mortgage-backed securities and subprime lending.   Today's vehicle appears to be cryptocurrency, particularly Bitcoin. Anderson points to concerning developments like MicroStrategy's strategy of borrowing money to buy Bitcoin, which supports the stock price, enabling more borrowing for more Bitcoin – a classic pyramid structure. The involvement of political figures in similar cryptocurrency ventures only amplifies the speculative fervor that characterizes cycle peaks.   The Psychology of Peaks Anderson describes the cycle as behaving like "a living entity" that must draw absolutely everyone in before it can peak. The market cannot top until there's no more money or credit available – until everyone is "all in." This psychological dynamic explains why peaks often coincide with maximum optimism and minimum skepticism.   Strategic Positioning: Preparing for the Inevitable   The Million-Dollar Question When asked how he would deploy $1 million today, Anderson's advice reflects the cycle's current stage: Immediate Actions: Keep funds liquid and in banks rather than rushing into investments Avoid taking on additional debt, especially at potentially rising interest rates Prepare for property values to decline 20% or more Positioning for Opportunity: Maintain an exemplary financial profile to secure credit during the downturn Prepare to be a buyer when others are forced sellers Focus on cash preservation and credit access rather than current yields Timeline Expectations Based on historical patterns, Anderson expects the downturn to begin around 2026, with the bottom likely occurring around 2031-2032 (years ending in "1" have historically marked recession bottoms in America).   This suggests a 4-6 year period of adjustment, similar to the 2008-2012 cycle, presenting significant opportunities for those positioned correctly.   Implications for Commercial Real Estate   Reading Between the Lines For commercial real estate professionals, Anderson's analysis suggests several critical considerations: Traditional metrics like cap rates, rent projections, and employment growth may be misleading at this cycle stage. The fundamental driver – land values – is approaching a cyclical peak that transcends these conventional indicators. The deregulation of banking, combined with potential Federal Reserve constraints, could create a uniquely challenging environment for real estate financing. Unlike previous cycles, the usual monetary policy responses may not be available. The Contrarian Opportunity While Anderson's analysis paints a sobering picture of the near-term outlook, it also illuminates tremendous opportunity for those who understand and prepare for the cycle.   The next 2-3 years may offer the last chances to position defensively before the inevitable adjustment.   The key insight is that real estate cycles are not random events but predictable phenomena driven by fundamental economic laws. Those who understand these patterns can navigate them successfully, while those who ignore them risk being caught unprepared when the cycle turns.   Anderson's message is ultimately one of empowerment through knowledge: understand the cycle, respect its power, and position accordingly. The pencil will fall – the only question is whether you'll be ready when it does.   *** In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.   With insights from economists, academics, and seasoned professionals, this show helps investors respond to market uncertainty with clarity, discipline, and a focus on downside protection.    Subscribe to my free newsletter for timely updates, insights, and tools to help you navigate today's volatile real estate landscape.

Lumber prices surged 23% year-over-year in April, reviving cost pressures that rattled builders earlier in the pandemic. The spike, driven by sawmill closures and fears of higher tariffs on Canadian imports, is squeezing margins for major developers like Lennar, D.R. Horton, and Toll Brothers. The U.S. currently imposes a 14.5% duty on Canadian softwood lumber—accounting for 85% of American imports—but that rate could more than double following a regulatory review expected by August. The volatility comes as HUD Secretary Scott Turner outlines a bold deregulation agenda. Speaking at the T3 Leadership Summit, Turner pledged to ease red tape, open underused federal lands for construction, and eliminate the Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing rule. Turner says the goal is to unlock new supply by empowering local governments and encouraging self-sufficiency. Meanwhile, HUD faces proposed budget cuts of $33.6 billion, raising questions about how effectively the agency can stimulate new building while federal funding shrinks. Together, rising material costs and shifting federal policy are setting the stage for a turbulent second half of 2025 in the housing sector.

Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner break down MLB Friday from a betting perspective. best bets as always. Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner hosted the MLB podcast focusing on Friday's games. They began by reflecting on their recent 2-0 best bets streak, expressing confidence heading into the weekend. The first highlighted game was the Chicago rivalry at Wrigley Field, where Shane Smith starts for the struggling White Sox against Cade Horton of the Cubs. Griffin noted Horton's limited pitch mix might still overpower the weak Sox lineup. Munaf emphasized the Cubs' rest advantage and the Sox's fatigue after a loss in Cincinnati. Next, the Guardians face the Reds in the "Battle of Ohio." Griffin was cautious about Tanner Bybee as a road favorite, pointing out the hitter-friendly park and Brady Singer's vulnerability to home runs. Munaf countered, citing Bybee's strong recent performances, including seven innings against the Phillies, making him lean toward the Guardians' money line. In Philadelphia, Andrew Haney's inconsistency was likened to an unpredictable night out, while Ranger Suarez's solid home record made the Phillies a favored pick, especially on the run line, with Munaf highlighting Haney's poor career numbers against the Phillies. For the Mets vs Yankees, Griffin leaned toward the Mets due to their bullpen strength and skepticism of the Yankees' offense, while Munaf preferred betting the over, expecting home runs from both sides at Yankee Stadium. Griffin selected the Orioles over the Nationals as his best bet, trusting Baltimore's bullpen despite their shaky start to the season. Munaf agreed, noting Cade Povich's prior success against the Nationals. In Toronto, Griffin doubted the Tigers' offense despite their strong start, while Munaf leaned under 8.5, noting Flaherty's rough patch and Francis's vulnerability. In the Braves vs Red Sox matchup, Griffin was hesitant to back Chris Sale and wary of the Braves' underperformance. Munaf praised Crochet's early season form and leaned towards under eight, expecting a pitching duel. Regarding the Astros vs Rangers, both analysts favored the Rangers due to Ivaldi's dominance and McCullers Jr.'s limited pitch count. Munaf stressed the under, given the Astros' offensive struggles and Rangers' home under trends. In Milwaukee, Griffin was cautious about backing the Brewers despite Chad Patrick's solid form, while Munaf pointed out the absence of Buxton and Correa for the Twins, making the under eight a strong play. For the late games, they mocked the Rockies' dire situation in Arizona, where Corbin Burns' Diamondbacks were massive favorites. Munaf joked about backing the D-Backs team total overs. In San Diego, Munaf leaned over eight and a half in the Mariners vs Padres game, noting Koenig's regression potential after his shutout of the Rockies. Griffin, however, was hesitant. The Dodgers vs Angels featured Dustin May against Jack Kahanowitz. Both hosts dismissed the Angels' chances, advising bettors to focus on Dodgers team totals. In the Giants vs A's game, Griffin acknowledged JP Sears' surprising stability but warned about his fly-ball tendencies in San Francisco's pitcher-friendly park. Munaf favored Logan Webb's strong home splits and suggested a Giants win by multiple runs. Finally, the best bets were set: Griffin chose Orioles ML at -108, citing bullpen strength and home field, while Munaf selected Phillies -1.5 at -108, pointing to Suarez's home form and Haney's frailties. Throughout the podcast, both hosts balanced data and playful commentary, giving special attention to pitching matchups, team fatigue, and offensive inconsistencies, emphasizing the significance of situational factors like park dimensions and team travel schedules.
