Four years ago consumer electronics giant Apple Inc. promised to create 3,000 jobs and build a hulking new campus in Research Triangle Park. But so far construction hasn’t started.

Matt Faircloth interviews Robert Beardsley, partner at Lone Star Capital (LSCRE), about navigating the current multifamily cycle, surviving 2021–2022 acquisitions, and why the most resilient opportunities today hinge on debt structure, affordability incentives, and supply-constrained submarkets. Robert breaks down how Texas multifamily has shifted from a “prices only go up” environment to a more balanced but still competitive market, where Class B suburban assets with little new supply outperform shiny Class A developments offering heavy concessions. He explains how LS CRE avoided major distress by minimizing bridge debt exposure and shifting early into affordable-housing-driven acquisitions—leveraging tax-exemption partnerships with housing authorities to create stable NOI without risky value-add pushes. The two dive deep into rising treasuries, soft-landing odds, rent-to-income resilience, recession risk, Texas HB 21 fallout, and why hundreds of improperly structured tax-exemption deals may implode when exemptions expire in 2026.

We explore how Wisconsin is emerging as a new destination for filmmakers. We sit down with filmmaker Nathan Deming and veteran studio executive Suzanne Jurva, two key voices behind the recent passage of groundbreaking film incentive legislation in the state. Together, they break down how this bipartisan initiative came to life, what it means for the state's creative economy, and why it could serve as a model for regional film development elsewhere.Nathan shares his experience shooting in Wisconsin while splitting time between LA and the Midwest, and how the lack of infrastructure highlighted the need for change. Suzanne, whose career spans DreamWorks, independent film, and tech, discusses how her studio background shaped her advocacy efforts and why she believes the state is uniquely positioned to support both indie and studio-level productions. This episode dives into the real challenges of regional filmmaking—from crew access to gear rental—and how smart, community-driven policy can unlock growth. We also explore the early impact of these changes, the importance of post-production and training ecosystems, and the broader economic ripple effect of investing in film. About WrapbookWrapbook is a smart, intuitive platform that makes production payroll and accounting easier, faster, and more secure.

In this episode, we explore how game theory and network effects intersect to inform optimal incentive structures in organizations. Pau Milán walks us through his recent research, co-authored with Nicolás Oviedo-Davila and Marc Claveria, which uses a novel game-theoretic model to show how the productivity of one employee can amplify the output of others in their network—and how firms can leverage this to design smarter compensation schemes. Drawing on real-world examples and his theoretical work, Pau offers practical insights for employers and economists alike.   Pau Milán is an Associate Professor of Economics at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) and an Affiliated Professor at the Barcelona School of Economics (BSE). His research interests include Social and Economic Networks, Information Economics, Development Economics, Organisations, and Applied Game Theory. You can find the working paper "Incentive Contracts and Peer Effects in the Workplace" here.

If you want to understand the future of construction, look at your phone. In this episode of KP Unpacked, KP Reddy and Nick explain why the next major shift in AEC will mirror the moment Uber replaced the taxi. Not because of sci-fi tech, but because of something simpler: total transparency.Today's owners operate in a black box. Schedules slip, change orders land without context, and updates lag behind reality. KP and Nick argue that the construction company that embraces real-time visibility will dominate the next decade.From jobsite cameras and drone data to cultural shifts inside design and engineering teams, this episode lays out what it takes to build the first truly transparent construction firm and why owners will reward it.Highlights1) The Uber analogy Real-time tracking vs radio silence Why transparency became a competitive weapon How expectations changed overnight once riders saw the truth2) Transparency on the jobsiteDaily visibility instead of weekly reportingDrone imagery, progress photos, and time-stamped realityOwners checking job status as easily as tracking a car3) Culture as the real blocker The fear of showing mistakes in real time Old school habits inside design and engineering teams Why new firms may adopt transparency faster than incumbents4) Incentives and stress Why most GCs do not actually want surprise change orders How hiding small issues snowballs into major delays Transparency as the ultimate stress reliever for teams5) The technology already existsReality capture, project management, AI context layersWhy this is a full stack shift, not a point solutionThe first GC to commit wins disproportionate market shareIf you believe construction is overdue for its Uber moment, this episode shows why transparency wins and how the industry gets there.Ready to go deeper on modern AEC leadership and operations?Join the KPR Co Q1 Event for hands-on sessions with founders, operators, and owners.

Aging quietly shapes everything - our economies, our politics, our families, and the horizon of what nations can become. Jacob and longevity expert Dylan Livingston, founder of the Alliance for Longevity Initiatives (A4LI), take a dive into the emerging science that treats aging not as fate, but as a solvable biological problem with staggering geopolitical consequences. The two explore how extending healthy human life could transform productivity, rebalance global power, upend healthcare economics, and challenge long-held assumptions about decline. At its core is a question: what happens when longevity becomes a public policy frontier, not a personal fantasy?--Timestamps:(00:00) - Introduction(00:21) - The Importance of Longevity(02:48) - Personal Journey into Longevity(04:48) - Historical Quest for Immortality(10:02) - Modern Longevity Science(13:13) - Challenges and Societal Implications(19:53) - A4LI's Mission and Achievements(27:38) - Policy and Future Goals(32:51) - FDA Guidance and Incentives for Therapeutics(34:01) - Supply Chain Concerns and American Manufacturing(35:32) - Political Perspectives on Longevity(37:13) - Bipartisan Efforts and Advocacy(41:55) - Challenges and Opportunities in Longevity Research(52:28) - Economic and Demographic Implications of Longevity(01:01:45) - Closing Remarks and Future Conversations--Referenced in the Show:A4LI - https://a4li.org/ --Jacob Shapiro Site: jacobshapiro.comJacob Shapiro LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jacob-l-s-a9337416Jacob Twitter: x.com/JacobShapJacob Shapiro Substack: jashap.substack.com/subscribe --The Jacob Shapiro Show is produced and edited by Audiographies LLC.

Send us a textStories change the way we work, but meetings change what we do next. That belief runs through our conversation with Sarah Braley (aka Sally), managing editor at Northstar Meetings Group and a veteran journalist whose passport and notebook have shaped how planners think about destinations, incentives and experience design. We trace Sally's path from early magazine days to becoming a trusted voice at Meetings & Conventions and Incentive, and we explore how the shift from monthly issues to daily digital reporting transformed the job—and the industry.Sally breaks down why experience design matters more than ever, offering practical ways to build programs that engage attention, respect budgets and deliver outcomes attendees can use. We dive into inclusive F&B strategies, from allergy-aware registration to vegetarian-first menus that improve quality and reduce waste. She also makes a compelling case for rethinking destination strategy: while mega-conventions draw headlines, most gatherings host under 100 people, and smaller cities like Burlington, Toledo and Knoxville can deliver outsized impact with walkability, character, and value. For incentive travel, bucket list markets such as Australia and New Zealand still shine when authenticity and access are thoughtfully planned.If you work in PR, you'll get clear guidance on what makes a pitch land: B2B relevance, access to the planner, strong visuals and a crisp angle that helps readers do their jobs better. And for editors and planners alike, Sally's on-the-ground role at Northstar events offers a rare view into how content, logistics and attendee experience feed each other.Through downturns and disruption, one truth remains: when the world shifts, people meet to solve problems. Join us to hear what's new, what works and what's next for meetings, conventions and incentives—and how to tell better stories about all three.

What if every crown, implant, or veneer you placed didn't just build smiles—but built wealth? In this episode, Dr. Len Tau sits down with innovators Max Zanan and Adam Marburger of Dental Protection Group to reveal how dentists can turn warranties into a new revenue stream. They're showing why protecting your patients' dental work can also protect—and grow—your financial future. They explain how this simple yet powerful concept—borrowed from the automotive industry—offers dentists a way to increase patient trust, improve case acceptance, and build long-term wealth through profit-sharing warranty programs. Max and Adam share how their model allows dentists to turn warranties into wealth-building vehicles, all while protecting patients and creating a new stream of passive income in a tax-advantaged environment. They also discuss how to get your team on board, how to present warranties to patients, and why this model is changing how entrepreneurial dentists think about their businesses. You'll learn: Warranties Build Trust: Patients already value protection plans in every purchase—offering one in dentistry creates instant credibility and peace of mind. Wealth Through Risk Transfer: Unlike goodwill replacements, Dental Protection Group's model lets dentists transfer risk and receive compensation when failures occur. Profit Sharing Opportunity: Money left over from unclaimed warranties is returned to the practice, compounding over time like a "401(k) on steroids." Team Buy-In Is Key: Success depends on making warranties part of the practice culture—presented as a standard part of every procedure, not an upsell. Entrepreneurial Dentistry: The program empowers dentists to generate long-term, tax-friendly income, fund growth, or even retire earlier.   Key Takeaways 00:44 Introduction and Event Highlights 02:30 Meet the Dental Protection Group 04:35 Understanding Dental Warranties 06:00 The Value of Warranties in Dentistry 06:40 Warranties as a Consumer Expectation 10:40 Differentiating Warranties from Goodwill 12:50 The Financial Benefits of True Warranties 14:40 Wealth Building through Warranties 16:01 Creating Generational Wealth in Dentistry 17:40 Implementing Warranties in Practice 20:55 The Culture of Warranties in Dental Practices 22:52 The Perfect Scenario for Implementation 28:00 Handling Patient Objections 30:44 Team Buy-In and Incentives 31:35 Quick Onboarding Process 32:35 Transferability of Warranties 37:37 Final Thoughts and Opportunities   — Connect with Max and Adam Visit DentalProtectionGroup.com to schedule a consultation with Max and Adam.

Patrick McKenzie (patio11) reads his essay on title insurance, a service designed to never be performed with a "laughably low" 5% loss ratio compared to 50-80% for almost all types of insurance. The typical American moves every seven to eight years, paying a $500 annual tax for basically no good or service. This is due to a quirk about how America records real estate ownership: it mostly doesn't. Confused?

Erez Levin, a prominent figure in the Ad Tech industry known for his focus on quality joins AdTechGod on the podcast today. They discuss Erez's journey from Google to founding his advisory firm, the complexities of defining quality in marketing, and the importance of ad placement and publisher quality. The conversation dives into the incentives that drive the industry, the accountability of marketers, and the future of quality in advertising. Erez emphasizes the need for marketers to demand better effectiveness for their spend and to question the status quo in the industry. Takeaways Quality in advertising is a range, not a binary. Marketing should be viewed as a cloud science, not a clock science. Investing in quality controls can yield significant benefits. The buy side has commoditized media, leading to a race to the bottom. Quality media will be increasingly valued in the future. Marketers create the incentives that drive quality in advertising. Don't let perfect be the enemy of the good when it comes to quality controls. The long tail of publishers will likely become commoditized. Trust your gut and question the consensus in the industry. Quality is ultimately determined by effectiveness in advertising.

Making Belief Practical—From Hiring to Customer Experience Introduction: In Part 2, we get into the how. Matt walks through what belief looks like in action—from hiring people who align with your culture, to defining values in ways people can actually use, to building customer experiences that transform relationships. This is packed with real stories from Apple, Nordstrom, and other brands that got it right, plus Matt's CADET framework that changes how you think about every interaction. Summary: We tackle the practical side of building belief-driven cultures. Matt shares how to hire for cultural fit and belief (not just skills), and walks through his experience scaling Apple retail from 10,000 to 25,000 employees without losing their DNA. We dig into why values are meaningless without tangible definitions, the power of storytelling in creating shared understanding, and the CADET framework for customer experience. Matt also explains why incentives must align with desired behaviors, using real examples of what happens when they don't. Key Highlights: Apple hired for people who loved the brand and wanted to serve, not for product expertise—then trained them Values need tangible definitions: what does "kindness" look like, sound like, feel like in your specific organization? The CADET framework: Connect, Assess, Deliver, Exceed, Transform—and why you can't skip steps Incentives and behaviors must align, or your culture breaks down (the e-commerce returns example) Key Takeaways: Hire for belief, train for skill. Look for alignment with your mission and values first, then build competence. Define your values in observable terms. Don't just say "kindness"—describe what it looks like in action and what it doesn't look like. Use storytelling to build culture. Get your team to share transformational experiences, then identify the common threads. Deliver flawlessly before trying to exceed. Master the basics (stated needs) before attempting to wow people with extras. Remove barriers to desired behaviors. If you want certain actions, make sure your incentive structure supports them, not fights them. Next Steps for Listeners: Pick one of your company values. Can you describe it in specific, observable terms? If not, gather your team and define it together using stories. Review your last few hires. Did you prioritize skills or cultural alignment? What would change if belief came first? Walk through a customer or employee experience using CADET. Where are you trying to "exceed" before you've "delivered"? Connect with Matt on LinkedIn.

Join our champion program: mark@themomentumcompany.comAttend a Thriving Leader event: https://www.themomentumcompany.com/thrivingleader2026Instagram: @the.momentum.companyLinkedIn: /momentum-companyIn this episode, Mark Jewell sits down with veteran sales strategist Ken Pieh, a man with nearly four decades of experience transforming sales organizations—from Medtronic to fast-growing startups—through better incentive design.Ken shares real-world stories of how one small med-tech company went from $30 million to $200 million in revenue by overhauling its compensation model. He breaks down why most sales incentive plans unintentionally reward the wrong behaviors, and how to fix that before it costs you your best people.This is an episode every CEO, VP of Sales, and sales manager in agribusiness needs to hear. If your incentive plan doesn't align with your culture, goals, and leadership vision—you're probably burning money and morale.Key Takeaways:

In this episode we answer emails from Dave, Isaiah, and Ian.  We discuss back-testing tools, revisit UPRO and leverage from the last episode, the inherent biases and incentives for retail financial advisors to recommend underspending and using underspending plans larded with window dressings, and revisit a limited 401k and a retirement scenario from Episodes 420 and 444.And THEN we our go through our weekly portfolio reviews of the eight sample portfolios you can find at Portfolios | Risk Parity Radio.Additional links:Father McKenna Center Donation Page:  Donate - Father McKenna CenterPortfolio Visualizer Backtester:  Backtest Portfolio Asset AllocationTestfolio Backtester:  testfol.ioBreathless Unedited AI-Bot Summary:Think your withdrawal rate is just a number? We dig into why the path matters more than the headline, showing how 0%, 3%, and 6% withdrawals change resilience without altering which portfolios dominate across different eras. Then we pull apart the leverage mirage: why 3x S&P funds can look unbeatable in calm runs yet suffer brutal volatility drag and catastrophic left tails when the decade turns against you. The goal isn't fear—it's sizing risk so you don't bet your future on luck.We also wade into the psychology of advice. Even fee-only planners face incentives to keep clients underspending, leaning on cash-heavy buckets, retirement “paychecks,” and tidy jargon that soothes but often costs performance. If you're wired for DIY, you'll appreciate a finance-first approach: let evidence drive the allocation, not marketing hooks. We contrast retail comfort with institutional discipline and offer a practical way to align your plan with the results you actually want.For listeners wrestling with constrained 401k menus, we map out how to approximate risk parity using the levers that matter most: low-cost stock and core bond indexes, selective value tilts, and tax-aware placement. We touch Roth versus traditional choices when you're in a low bracket, how to secure your FI core, and why continuing to work a decade after reaching FI might mean it's time to spend more on life, not just accumulate more line items.We close with a sharp market rundown and performance across sample portfolios, from classic diversifiers to levered blends. If you want a clear-eyed, practical framework for withdrawals, leverage, advisor incentives, and building robust portfolios with imperfect tools, this conversation will sharpen your plan. If it resonates, follow the show, leave a review, and share it with a friend who needs a finance-first reset.Support the show

My guest today is Luca Ferrari. Luca is the co-founder and CEO of Bending Spoons, which he describes as 25 percent private equity and 75 percent technology company. Founded in 2013, Bending Spoons fully acquires and operates digital companies like Evernote, Meetup, Vimeo, and most recently AOL.  Our conversation explores the unique model behind Bending Spoons, and the culture required to scale it. Luca shares exactly how their acquisition playbook works – from identifying promising businesses to rebuilding every part of them across product, design, monetization, and marketing. We discuss their approach to financing long-term ownership through both debt and equity, Luca's obsession with finding and developing exceptional talent, and his decision to build the company in Europe.  I found Luca's description of himself as perennially unhappy to be the clearest window into how he builds. It's a mindset that fuels his pursuit of excellence and defines the culture at Bending Spoons. Please enjoy my conversation with Luca Ferrari.

My guest is Dr. David Fajgenbaum, MD, professor of translational medicine and human genetics at the University of Pennsylvania. He explains how, unbeknownst to most doctors, many approved medications can successfully treat or even cure diseases other than the ones they are typically used to treat. He shares his story of escaping death from Castleman's disease by discovering a life-saving treatment using repurposed drugs that were approved for other purposes. Our conversation explores how researchers, physicians, and you—the general public—can explore novel treatments and cures to conditions the medical profession has deemed untreatable, including cancers. We also discuss the crucial role of mindset in battling diseases and the lesser-known use of compounds to promote health and longevity. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.
