Industrial real estate demand is rebounding in 2026 after the slowest first half in eight years. Michael Bull, CCIM gets the latest from Marc Selvitelli, President and CEO of the Commercial Real Estate Development Association (CREDA, the organization known for decades as NAIOP). Only 75 million square feet of industrial space delivered in the first half of 2026, the lowest in eight years. Yet 595 million square feet are now under construction, up 5% year over year, with vacancy essentially flat at 6.9%. Marc explains why the sector is normalizing toward historical norms instead of repeating the post-pandemic rocket ship, and why consumer spending and e-commerce still support the trend. One caveat sits under the numbers: the forecast assumes the conflict with Iran winds down in the second half of the year. The conversation also covers the CREDA sentiment survey (slow, steady, and quietly positive as capital returns), the return to office at 3.4 days a week, why power availability is now the single biggest constraint on new development, and the explosion in data centers, from 2% of members three years ago to 12% today. Marc and Michael dig into industrial outdoor storage (under 2% vacancy nationwide), medical office, office-to-residential conversions, senior housing technology, and what AI really does and does not change for brokerage.

Most people ask how to start a systems integrator. Rich Kuechenmeister has effectively built one five times, and the lesson is that the parent business decides what you become.Rich is owner and partner at Fishbone Technical Services. Before that he built automation groups inside a semiconductor equipment OEM, an automation components manufacturer, a products distributor, and a custom machine builder where he stood up a UL 508A panel shop from nothing. Each of those businesses sold something different, and that changed the engineering. At a machine builder the machine is the dog and the controls are the tail. At a distributor you build toolkits so somebody else can build the solution, handcuffed to the lines you carry. Rich argues that constraint is what made him good, because a single vendor solution is easy while four component areas from four vendors is where real integration lives.His definition of a control systems integrator stays traditional. SCADA and below, field instrumentation through PLC and HMI, bridging a little into MES. Fishbone works line control, process control on boilers, pumps and valves, and material handling where suppliers ship a motor and a few sensors and nothing more.The business advice is specific. He would rather have one $100,000 project than ten $10,000 projects, because that is one project management cycle instead of ten. He cautions against mixing maintenance work and capital projects without a plan, since context switching between a vision system callout and a pump control program burns budget on both. Dave adds the pattern he keeps seeing: come in at the bottom and you get saved in the phone as the maintenance guy, never the capital project guy. Rich hires on desire, attitude and aptitude, and admits he was once the bottleneck himself.Looking ahead, he expects acquisitions to keep rolling up integrators and leaving a void underneath, since a twenty person firm will not get out of bed for the projects a five person firm lived on. On AI he is practical. He turned three day estimates into eight estimates in a single day, but insists code writing is a subset of the job. He is also still doing a PLC-5 conversion and a DeviceNet upgrade.About Rich KuechenmeisterRich Kuechenmeister is owner and partner at Fishbone Technical Services, a nationwide remote technical services company he co-founded in 2021 with business partner Robert Summers. Fishbone is based in Texas and covers plant engineering and control systems integration from field instrumentation through PLC, HMI and SCADA, with some MES. Rich began his career in the United States Navy working on radars, servos and guidance systems, then spent three decades in industrial automation building engineering groups before starting Fishbone.https://fishbonetechnical.comTimestamps0:00 Introduction2:20 Inside Fishbone Technical Services5:20 From the Navy to OEMs, distributors and machine builders9:00 Becoming unafraid and starting a company15:40 What a control systems integrator actually is20:40 How the parent business shapes the work31:40 Filling the sales hopper and qualifying projects36:40 Maintenance work versus capital projects43:00 Hiring for desire, attitude and aptitude48:20 Letting go of the client relationship56:20 Distributors, acquisitions and the void they leave1:04:40 AI, estimating and reverse engineering PLC codeReferencesPrOTect IT All by Aaron Crow: https://www.amazon.com/PrOTect-All-Plain-Spoken-Cybersecurity-Protecting/dp/B0HBM3F4XSISA/IEC 62443 Series of Standards: https://www.isa.org/standards-and-publications/isa-standards/isa-iec-62443-series-of-standardsAbout Your HostsVladimir Romanov is a co-host of The Manufacturing Hub Podcast and the founder of Joltek, an independent manufacturing and industrial automation consulting firm specializing in modernization strategy, digital transformation, and workforce development.

This episode of the Accountability Podcast is a must-listen for anyone interested in the inner workings of California politics. The conversation delves into the world of accountability, where politicians seem to care more about their own legacies than the well-being of their constituents. The discussion centers around the city of San Francisco, where Mayor Daniel Lurie's efforts to present a positive image are contrasted with the reality of a bloated budget and a lack of accountability in the city's spending.The episode explores the recent expose on fraud in the city's homeless services, which has led to a panic among politicians and a push to silence the whistleblower, Nick Shirley. The conversation also touches on the city's budget, which has ballooned to nearly $17 billion, and the lack of transparency in the city's spending. The hosts discuss how Mayor Lurie's efforts to present a positive image are at odds with the reality of the city's financial situation.The conversation also shifts to the upcoming election for Congress, where the hosts discuss the candidacy of Scott Weiner and his opponent, Connie Chan. The hosts analyze the motivations behind Nancy Pelosi's involvement in the election and how she may be using her influence to shape the outcome. The discussion also touches on the issues of housing, sex crimes, and the clash of egos between the old guard and the newer, more progressive politicians.If you're interested in learning more about the inner workings of California politics and the accountability (or lack thereof) of its politicians, this episode is a must-listen.

AI developer Anthropic has entered into a massive $35 billion agreement to secure cloud computing power from Lambda, a provider heavily supported by Nvidia. This arrangement centers on a new Texas data center being developed by Hut 8, where Nvidia acts as the primary tenant and hardware supplier. The deal is part of a larger $80 billion spending spree by Anthropic to lock down essential infrastructure and specialized chips amidst a global supply shortage. This complex web of partnerships, where Nvidia serves as an investor, landlord, and manufacturer, has sparked industry debate regarding circular financing models. Ultimately, these sources illustrate that the competition in artificial intelligence has shifted from software development to a high-stakes race for physical capacity and energy resources.

Takeaways – Life. Lessons. Learned. Kevin Higgins, All Things Brokerage Kevin Higgins, SIOR is a top producer's top producer! Weeks before we recorded this episode he and his business partner became the first Vice Chairmans with CBRE Las Vegas. That is the highest title a broker can receive at CBRE worldwide based on production and experience. Kevin began his career in 1985 with Coldwell Banker before opening the first Voit Real Estate office in 2002. Kevin was at Voit for 12 years, became the Executive Vice President, and was the number one producer for 11 out of those 12 years. Kevin moved to CBRE and became the number one producer in all of CBRE Las Vegas and a top 10 producer in all of CBRE nationwide. Kevin has won numerous awards, and his credentials are stacked, but his credentials only tell us part of the story of who Kevin is. You Get Out What You Put In Originally from Chicago, Kevin is the 5th of 10 children. His parents moved out west to chase the warm weather. Kevin credits his parents as the most influential factor in his success. “My parents raised 10 kids, and everyone had to do their part. Everyone had a job at home, and everyone had a responsibility.” Since he was eleven, Kevin had a job. He learned that it's up to you to make your world. Don't wait for someone else to make it for you. Despite his parents' plans, Kevin didn't become a doctor or FBI agent. However, becoming a high achiever was always a part of his foundation. SIOR & NAIOP SIOR (Society of Industrial and Office Realtors) is a place where brokers come together to have an audience with the developers, contractors, lenders, etc., in commercial real estate. Kevin served as the chapter president in 2004 and 2009, and his team has won the coveted Southern Nevada Industrial Broker or Brokerage Team of the Year 13 times and was the Southern Nevada Top Producer Industrial Specialist from 2017 through 2022. In fact, my first time meeting Kevin was at an SIOR lunch. But that isn't the only connection we have. Kevin served as the NAIOP Southern Nevada President in 2003. I served as Chapter President in 2022. Getting to know the larger developers, architects, and engineers is important in Kevin's opinion. NAIOP Southern Nevada helped facilitate those connections. As Kevin would put it, “the relationship… the more connectivity we have within our industry, the better we are as brokers.” Takeaways From This Episode Other Key Takeaways in this episode include: Don't expect success to be given to you just because you showed up – it takes more than that. Be the best you can – no sense in doing something half baked. In the commercial real estate world, lone wolf brokers have become teams and generalists have become specialists.

Industrial environments run on a different set of constraints than the typical enterprise office — physical risk, standalone factory sites, and workflows where a fragmented handoff can cost time, quality, or worse. ​ In this episode, Scot Burdette, Global CIO of Measurement & Analytics at ABB, examines why industrial AI has to be built around knowledge capture, human-in-the-loop oversight, and frontline usability, and shares how ABB's own tools are helping a retiring generation's expertise transfer to the workers replacing them, with Emerj host Marilie Fouché. ​ He outlines the practical shift underway, from siloed, tribal knowledge toward a shared operational data layer, and from pilots that prove a concept to the design and implementation work that changes how a factory runs. ​ This episode is sponsored by Poka.   To learn the exact strategies we use to help leading AI brands and startups connect with their ideal enterprise AI buyers, visit: emerj.com/AD1

Salesforce and Anthropic launch Claudeforce as Marc Benioff and Dario Amodei explain the collaboration together on CNBC, AWS commits to 2 million more NVIDIA GPUs on top of its GTC pledge, plus six new earnings this week from NVIDIA, Salesforce, Synopsys, HP, Everpure, and Marvell test every bear thesis on AI infrastructure and software at once. Patrick Moorhead and Daniel Newman also cover Hot Chips 2026, the NVIDIA-Hugging Face acquisition rumor, and debate whether Anthropic's SaaS reassurances hold up on Ep. 317 of The Six Five Pod. The handpicked topics for this week are: Claudeforce Turns Salesforce Into Anthropic's Enterprise Front End. Salesforce and Anthropic launched Claudeforce, positioning Claude as the interface across roughly 27 Salesforce services while Anthropic supplies the underlying AI engine. Marc Benioff and Dario Amodei appeared together on CNBC to make the case for the partnership, and both stocks rallied on the news. Moorhead flags one open question: how Anthropic protects Salesforce customer data without collecting the usage traces that AI systems typically retain. (The Decode) AWS Adds 2 Million NVIDIA GPUs on Top of Its GTC Commitment. AWS committed to another 2 million NVIDIA GPUs, layered onto the 1 million it pledged at GTC five months earlier, alongside its own Trainium and Graviton silicon build-out. Moorhead estimates the deal at 6 to 7 gigawatts and $80 billion to $120 billion in NVIDIA revenue, and reads the pairing of NVIDIA's Vera CPU with Graviton as evidence that agentic workloads need capabilities Amazon's own silicon doesn't yet cover. The commitment reinforces Moorhead's argument that wafer, packaging, and memory supply set the ceiling on AI infrastructure buildout, regardless of how many custom silicon projects come online. (The Decode) Hot Chips 2026 Draws Mainstream Attention as Custom and Merchant Silicon Both Scale. What was once an academic gathering turned into a press and social media event, with OpenAI's Jalapeño inference chip drawing the most attention for its bandwidth-heavy first-generation performance. IBM and Arm detailed a joint development agreement enabling IBM Z mainframes to run Arm code natively at sub-nanosecond switching latency, and AMD showed a full Helios rack while Arm walked through its AGI chip architecture. Moorhead notes that Jalapeño almost certainly relied on Synopsys or Cadence EDA tools rather than in-house design tooling. (The Decode) The NVIDIA-Hugging Face Acquisition Rumor Raises the Stakes on Model Distribution. Reports from The Information, Reuters, and Bloomberg point to a roughly $12.9 billion deal between NVIDIA and Hugging Face, though neither company has confirmed it. Moorhead and Newman question whether NVIDIA would treat Hugging Face as a neutral, GitHub-style repository to keep the open source community on side, or use it as a route into inference services without building out its own datacenter business directly. Newman raises the regulatory exposure of a chipmaker owning the leading open model distribution layer. (The Decode) The Flip: Dario's CNBC Appearance and Claudeforce Put Anthropic's SaaS Intentions to the Test. In this simulated debate, Daniel makes the case for Dario Amodei, pointing to Claudeforce's integration with Salesforce's identity graph, field-level permissions, and audit trail as evidence that Anthropic wants to operate as the intelligence layer sitting on top of enterprise systems of record. Patrick makes the case against this, framing the CNBC appearance as a Trojan horse and citing Amodei's past comments about a small number of AI companies eventually controlling the market as evidence that owning the UI, and the pricing power that comes with it, remains the actual goal. (The Flip) NVIDIA Posts a Quadruple Beat and Commits to a $700 Billion Revenue Target. NVIDIA reported $96.22 billion in quarterly revenue, with $89 billion from data center; it guided Q3 total revenue toward $108 billion and pointed to a $700 billion annualized revenue target Moorhead calls increasingly credible. The company's new AI Clouds, Industrial, and Enterprise reporting category grew 138%, outpacing the roughly 100% growth of the rest of the data center business and easing the concentration risk bears have flagged. Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Bernstein, and Raymond James all raised price targets on the print. (Bulls and Bears) Salesforce Raises Guidance as Agentforce ARR Grows 240%. Salesforce raised full-year guidance to $46.1 billion to $46.4 billion, with Agentforce ARR reaching $1.5 billion on 240% growth and non-GAAP EPS of $5.90. Moorhead points to premium SKU bookings more than doubling quarter over quarter and half of AI bookings coming from existing customer expansion as the durability signal Agentforce needed. Newman reads the results, paired with the CNBC appearance, as the market correcting its overreaction to the SaaSpocalypse narrative. (Bulls and Bears) Synopsys Beats Across the Board Despite Investor Confusion Over IP Revenue. Synopsys reported $2.48 billion in revenue, up 42%, with $711 million from Ansys, and raised guidance, with operating expense control around the Ansys integration paying off ahead of an expected 2027 revenue lift from the combined businesses. The stock still declined on investor confusion over IP segment reporting differences between FactSet and LSEG data. Newman highlights the company's unit-based royalty model and its early visibility into custom AI chip demand through both its EDA and Ansys simulation businesses. (Bulls and Bears) HP Beats on Revenue and Earnings But the Market Wants an Edge AI Story. HP reported $15.68 billion in revenue, up 12.5%, and EPS of $0.83, both ahead of consensus, with strong personal systems growth as supply constraints give the company pricing power on premium devices. Moorhead reads the sell-off as a margin trust discount tied to tariffs and lingering uncertainty over the company's interim CEO search, with device demand holding up. Newman is looking for HP to show how it monetizes distributed AI and on-device token economics, from lower-cost workstations up through devices like the $100,000 DGX Station. (Bulls and Bears) Everpure Grows Revenue 38% and Raises Guidance on a Second Hyperscaler Win. Everpure, formerly Pure Storage, grew revenue 38% to $1.19 billion, beat EPS at $0.70 versus $0.58 expected, and raised full-year guidance by more than $500 million on a second top-five hyperscaler design win landing in fiscal 2028. Newman points to eight straight quarters of accelerating revenue growth and expanding gross margin dollars even as pricing holds steady. The stock fell roughly 15% despite the beat, which Moorhead and Newman attribute to elevated investor expectations. (Bulls and Bears) Marvell Meets Expectations as the Market Waits for Google Deal Detail. Marvell posted data center revenue up 46% to $2.17 billion, total revenue up 37% to a record $2.739 billion, and Q3 guidance of $3.15 billion, essentially matching estimates, with its full-year outlook raised to roughly $18 billion. Shares fell more than 10% on investor appetite for a guidance raise tied to the Google custom silicon deal, which Moorhead expects Marvell to detail further at its October Financial Analyst Day. Newman frames the quarter as steady execution on socket wins, with the stock up 187% year to date, without the guidance drama some investors wanted.

I'm proud of all of my shows (1402 so far!) but the ones that I spend extra time listening and adjusting are always special to me. Plus it's really nice not to be sick! I don't always have great luck with bad food.

On this Salcedo Storm Podcast:Dr. Darrell Jones is President of the Stanley M. Herzog Charitable Foundation, where he has led the organization's national growth and expanded support for Christ-centered K–12 education since 2021. Under his leadership, the Foundation has launched initiatives that equip Christian schools, educators, and families across the country, helping drive the opening of nearly 200 new Christian schools in 2026.

Oil and gas automation runs on royalty accounting as much as process control. Dustin Symes explains how that shapes every SCADA decision JPI Solutions makes.Canadian oil and gas is structured differently than most assume. In the US mineral rights usually sit with individuals, so custody transfer draws a hard line between upstream and midstream. In Canada the provinces hold most rights, so a producer can gather 100 wells into one plant and sell to a pipeline company there. That lands on the automation: much of the SCADA data collection exists to answer who is paying whom and how much royalty is owed. Once a well is drilled, automation might find 5 to 10 percent off nameplate, so the work protects a long production tail rather than chasing throughput.Mining behaves nothing like it. Thinner margins, $100 million capital projects, an hour long elevator ride down, underground space running 20 miles across. Those are small cities: control systems cover substations, air monitoring and lighting as well as conveyors and pumps. Mining clients want programmers on site rather than remote, and they buy for continuity: a major vendor PLC paired with their DCS, meant to last 20 years. Horizontal drilling has rescaled oil and gas, from one well and a dozen sensors to a 32 well pad carrying 300 IO, pushing designs toward redundant PLCs and ring networks. The genuinely new technology lands on the data layer, where MQTT and report by exception are displacing polled Modbus.Dustin set two gates before his first hire: enough cash banked to make that person whole for a month or two, and enough overload to have work worth delegating. He hired out of the instrumentation program at SAIT rather than a 15 year instrument mechanic. When he weighed taking on partners, dozens of people advised against it. He brought in Dan and Brent Lawther anyway in 2018, went from five people that spring to ten by the fall, and says JPI would not exist without them.His hardest won lesson is unglamorous. Communication is the only consistent complaint he has ever had from a customer. Nobody complains about the code. They complain that nobody told them it was finished. On AI, JPI is decompiling Rockwell files into shutdown keys and landing 85 to 90 percent of the way there on a good prompt, and running log analysis across FactoryTalk directory, HMI and historian logs to find real root causes. He expects PLC code to become text so it can be version controlled like software, and customers to treat that as baseline within five years.About Dustin SymesDustin Symes is Chief Technology Officer at JPI Solutions, a Calgary based systems integrator serving oil and gas and mining clients across North America from four offices in Alberta, BC and Saskatchewan. A Red Seal journeyman electrician who moved into automation, he founded JPI in 2017. JPI covers process control from the sensor to the HMI, then up into SCADA and corporate data.https://www.jpisolutions.caTimestamps0:00 Introduction5:50 Why he started JPI Solutions10:50 Oil and gas primer: upstream, midstream, downstream12:50 What makes mining automation different16:10 Where JPI sits in the automation stack28:30 Bigger well pads, redundant PLCs and MQTT41:20 Bringing on partners when nobody recommended it51:10 Communication as the only consistent complaint1:04:40 The future of integration, AI and knowledge graphsReferencesRadical Candor by Kim Scott: https://www.amazon.com/Radical-Candor-Kick-Ass-Without-Humanity/dp/1250103509Creativity, Inc. by Ed Catmull: https://www.amazon.com/Creativity-Inc-Overcoming-Unseen-Inspiration/dp/0812993012ThredCloud: https://www.thredcloud.comAbout Your HostsVladimir Romanov is a co-host of The Manufacturing Hub Podcast and the founder of Joltek, an independent manufacturing and industrial automation consulting firm specializing in modernization strategy, digital transformation, and workforce development.

Milwaukee's water technology economy traces back roughly 150 years to breweries, tanneries, and meatpacking plants that created sustained demand for pumps, valves, meters, and pipes.In this episode, Karen Frost, executive director of The Water Council, explains how that industrial history continues to shape the city's leading role in developing and scaling water technology.Water-intensive industries created demand for specialized equipment, and over time southeastern Wisconsin developed a dense network of water technology manufacturers.Two of its most prominent companies, A.O. Smith and Badger Meter, became central to organizing that network into The Water Council in 2009.Today, the nonprofit connects established manufacturers with startups, utilities, researchers, and international companies seeking routes into the U.S. market.The broader ecosystem includes the Freshwater Collaborative, which links water programs and internship opportunities across all 13 University of Wisconsin campuses.The BREW 2.0 post-accelerator brings about 10 companies into the network each year, helping businesses with working technologies and early revenue strengthen their sales strategies and industry relationships.Many of those groups also converge at the ReFRESH Summit, which has convened manufacturers, utilities, entrepreneurs, researchers, and students around emerging water issues since 2007.Frost's goal is to keep extending Milwaukee's industrial foundation by helping water technologies developed locally and around the world find the partners needed to reach the market.waterloop is a nonprofit news outlet exploring solutions for water sustainability.

Coil have a reputation for being genuinely difficult: ritualistic, transgressive, the kind of band you approach the way you'd approach a locked door marked "occult correspondence, keep out." So it's a bit disarming that this episode opens with hand-written Christmas cards from Jhonn Balance and Peter "Sleazy" Christopherson, sent to a teenage psychiatric nursing student in Paisley who wrote to them out of genuine fandom. Coil, it turns out, wrote back.The student in question is Phil Eaglesham, or P6 as he is perhaps better known, formerly of Desalvo, Stretchheads and currently of OMO and Security. He's returning after breaking our brains once already with Cabaret Volatire, and this time he's turned up armed with decades of correspondence, first-hand context, and a refusal to let Coil calcify into myth. We trace the band from Jhonn Balance's teenage letters to Throbbing Gristle, through Psychic TV and the deliberately porous, ceremony-blurred confrontation of early industrial music, into the Temple of Psychic Youth and its uncomfortably close relationship to actual cult structure. We get into the brass dildos sent to record labels as a two-fingered thank-you-for-nothing. We get into AIDS-era queer culture, MDMA, and the particular kind of self-medicating grief that eventually caught up with Balance. And we get into why a band this steeped in the esoteric and apocalyptic was, underneath it, trying to build something more human and more DIY than the mysticism suggests.Jhon Balance himself suggested that Coil would forgotten within ten years after their end. They weren't. Whether that's a triumph of the work outlasting the intent, or proof that even planned obsolescence can't out-manoeuvre a good back catalogue, is something you can decide for yourselves. And we'll give you a bit of time to do that, because there's a whole second episode of this still to come next week.Highlights00:00 – Welcome back, Phil Eaglesham00:04 – Setting the scene: resources, Tony Dickey, and the Coil album map00:06 – The letters: correspondence with a psychiatric hospital00:10 – Reading list: England's Hidden Reverse and Everything Keeps Dissolving00:14 – A quick word from our sponsors (that's you)00:16 – Origins: Jhonn Balance, Throbbing Gristle, and teenage letter-writing00:20 – Psychic TV forms, Warner Brothers money, and the 23 brass dildos00:23 – Temple of Psychic Youth and its uncomfortable proximity to cult logic00:27 – Coil as an alternative: queerness, esotericism, without the cult of personality00:29 – Ecstasy, connection, and the AIDS-era comedown that became alcoholism00:32 – "In ten years, nobody will remember" — legacy, reissues, and Mute Records00:34 – Sleazy in Bangkok, and his death in 201000:39 – Peter Christopherson's design career: Hipgnosis, Pink Floyd, Sex Pistols00:42 – The boy shop window, the leg, and the police raid00:44 – Industrial music's roots in performance art and danger music

She just published BAD INFLUENCE, a book which takes us deep into the wellness-industrial complex—the confluence of the supplement, testing, tech, and pharma industries, and how they sell health anxiety to healthy people. Here are some of the points we discussed:—The big market in healthy, well people. Tests, wearables, imaging, supplements, etc—Algorithms feed the health anxiety in an amplifying, vicious loop on the social media platforms. When the algorithm knows you better than you.—The special qualities of influencers, likable, relatable, vulnerable, appearance as friends, certainty, cultivating parasocial relationships. “I understand you, I see you, I hear you.” Often with financial conflicts of interest. Plus hidden financial benefits. —The inverted pyramid of evidence and displacement of trust. Anecdotes believed and accepted as best evidence instead of rigorous randomized trials. A big flip, doctors losing trust to influencers and the sponsors of influencers. —The Nocebo effect of harm through expectations—The epidemic of neurologic tics during the pandemic traced back to TikTok, a viral contagion with 5.8 billion views (Figure made with Notebook LM)—Potential for regulation of patient/consumers/prosumer influencers —Celebrity influencers and the recent NEJM paper—Many ideas for how we can mitigate this mess (Graphic by Notebook LM)—Many illuminating patient examples: Femtech, silicon breast implant illness (BII), beta blocker experiment, a bogus bioresonance of hair test in a woman with GI symptoms, full-body MRI of brain lesions (transmitted to the patient by an automated message) that were a false positive.—The term “wellness”—Concierge physiciansThank you jojofinance, Vote Against Billionaires, Gretchen Faucett, Mary Powers, Jessica Coffman, and hundreds of others for tuning into my live video with Bad Influence!

Industrial biotechnology has enormous potential to create resilient supply chains, high performance ingredients, and a more sustainable bioeconomy, but good science alone is not enough. In this episode of Grow Everything, Karl and Erum speak with Olivier Rolland about the economic and industrial realities of scaling biology. Drawing on his experience across Michelin, TotalEnergies, Toulouse White Biotechnology, and L'Oréal, Olivier explains why biotech ventures must align sustainability, performance, cost, and customer expectations from the beginning. The conversation explores how techno economic analysis, early process constraints, industrial partnerships, standardization, and supportive policy can reduce risk and move promising molecules from the laboratory into commercial production. Olivier also discusses the biomanufacturing investment gap in Europe, the importance of resilient value chains, the limits of direct fossil replacements, and the opportunity to develop new molecules that deliver the same or better functions by design.Grow Everything brings the bioeconomy to life. Hosts Karl Schmieder and Erum Azeez Khan share stories and speak with the leaders and innovators using biology to change the world. Biology is the world's oldest technology, and it can be engineered. So, what are we growing?Learn more at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.messaginglab.com/groweverything⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Chapters:(00:00:00): Music festivals, Mike Levin, and consciousness at every scale(00:07:00): Biotech news, Houston biomanufacturing, and the Michelin Guide analogy(00:14:00): Genome astrology, ingredient transparency, and food regulation(00:21:00): Olivier Rolland on L'Oréal, Scope 3 emissions, water, and resilient supply chains(00:28:00): Finding the sweet spot between performance, economics, and sustainability(00:35:00): Techno economic analysis, retrofit constraints, and industrial partnerships(00:42:00): Europe's scale up funding gap and the emerging EU biotech framework(00:49:00): Coalitions, fragmented value chains, and practical commercialization(00:56:00): What sustainable aviation fuel teaches beauty about market pull(01:03:00): Isofunctional molecules, biotech myths, duckweed, and rapid scale upLinks and Resources:L'Oreal Advanced Biotech for SustainabilityEp. 156. When Matter Makes Decisions: Michael Levin on the Intelligence of Form"What's it like to be a Cucumber" New York Magazine article about Mike LevinBMS picks Texas for new $2.3B manufacturing campusBio-AI is All Atlases and Nowhere to Go by Jake Wintermute and American WetwareBioInnovations Events - For 25% off use code: Grow EverythingGrow Everything LinkedInTopics Covered:biomanufacturing, industrial biotechnology, sustainable materials, green chemistry, biotechnology commercialization, scope 3 emissions, defossilization, sustainable beauty, bio-based ingredients, bioeconomyHave a question or comment? Message us here:Text or Call (804) 505-5553⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Grow Everything⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Music by: Nihilore Production by: Amplafy Media

The political left and right increasingly agree on one dangerous idea: Washington should direct more of the economy.Industrial policy, tariffs, subsidies, and economic nationalism are being sold as ways to rebuild manufacturing, strengthen families, and make America more prosperous. But replacing market decisions with political direction does not create prosperity. It concentrates power, protects favored industries, and forces families and businesses to pay the bill.That is the focus of my conversation with Dr. Paul Mueller, Senior Research Fellow and Director of Defending Freedom and Combatting Collectivism at the American Institute for Economic Research. Paul studies entrepreneurship, economic growth, monetary economics, and political economy. He also hosts AIER's The Economist Next Door, which brings economic ideas to everyday Americans.We discuss his AIER paper examining the New Right's growing embrace of industrial policy, protectionism, and government-directed investment.

Most people who start a systems integrator expect to keep doing the engineering. Dylan DuFresne explains why that stops being true inside two years.Ask ten people what a systems integrator is and you get ten answers, so Dylan DuFresne starts from first principles: a third party that connects systems which used to sit isolated. The market then splits in two. One is the generalist who has seen a hundred platforms across a thousand facilities and knows how they behave together. The other is the specialist who lives inside one or two stacks. If you know what you are building, hire the specialist. If you are still deciding, the generalist saves you money.Abelara exists because of a pattern Dylan hit repeatedly during more than a decade inside other integrators. By the time a client calls, the platform is chosen, the budget is set, and the outcome is locked in, even when that platform cannot deliver it. His answer was to move upstream into architecture, change management, and business process work with VPs and C suite sponsors. His first question is always why. Why this site, why this machine, why this platform, and what outcome is attached to it.With no clear scope of work, Abelara declines to bid or sells the consulting engagement that produces one. When scope is fuzzy but workable he prices it all in and writes explicit exclusions and assumptions up front. His test before a proposal is one question: what does done look like. A striking number of buyers cannot answer it. He also corrects an instinct: a $200 sensor may beat a $30,000 camera technically and still be the wrong call, because the expensive option is a known quantity and carries less risk.Scaling gets treated as line balancing applied to a company. Find the bottleneck, find the gap in skills or availability, and staff it. Each hire moves the constraint somewhere new, and the hardest part is emotional: letting go of work you enjoy and are good at. On AI, Dylan predicts integration goes back to being integration. A generation of integrators drifted into custom coding, with companies of 400 and 500 people building MES and SCADA stacks from scratch, and he expects code generation to strip that work away. Writing a tool that pulls PLC data to the cloud is easy. Running it reliably and securely 24/7 for a year is not.About Dylan DuFresneDylan DuFresne is co founder and lead architect at Abelara, a manufacturing transformation firm that works with plants as coach, consultant, and integrator. He spent more than a decade inside systems integrators covering robotics, PLCs, SCADA, HMI, recipe management, and ERP integration before starting Abelara with co founder Glenn. He also wrote The Phantom Pallet, a manufacturing fable about data, trust, and transformation.https://abelara.comTimestamps0:00 Introduction4:30 What a systems integrator actually is9:00 Why Dylan and Glenn started Abelara14:00 Following the customer or picking platforms first20:00 Consulting versus integration work25:00 Why integrators get brought in too late32:00 The $30,000 camera and business trade offs36:30 Scope of work and what does done look like43:20 Handing projects to the team and subcontractors52:10 First hires, bottlenecks, and forecasting57:40 AI and the future of systems integration1:05:40 Predictions, career advice, and booksReferencesThe Phantom Pallet by Dylan DuFresne: https://www.amazon.com/Phantom-Pallet-Manufacturing-Fable-Transformation-ebook/dp/B0GGYCK5PRImpro: Improvisation and the Theatre by Keith Johnstone: https://www.amazon.com/Impro-Improvisation-Theatre-Keith-Johnstone/dp/041346430XAbout Your HostsVladimir Romanov is a co-host of The Manufacturing Hub Podcast and the founder of Joltek, an independent manufacturing and industrial automation consulting firm specializing in modernization strategy, digital transformation, and workforce development.

X-celsior! Zach Fernebok, Matt Sparacino, and Greg Twomey return to the show to talk about "X-Men '97" and the state of the nostalgia industrial complex. It's been two years since "X-Men '97" season one, and a lot has happened in Marvel and the MCU. We talk about what made season one so successful and not just a hollow cash grab. We also talk about what we love about the X-Men - especially the themes of othering and oppression. Then we get into "X-Men '97" season two. Should it have been titled X-Men '98? Probably! But, putting that aside, what did we like about it? What didn't work? And will we ever see X-Men: Love Island? Tune in now to find out!Full spoiler warning after about 25 minutes or so! You have been warned.Far Right Fright Nights is coming soon! Over the course of three episodes this October, we will be profiling a spine-tingling, fright-tastic ghoul of the far right. This year, Mitch Lerner and I are each selecting one ghoul to cover. But for our third episode, we want to do something a little different.

In this episode, Turner Construction's Drew Kerr, Vice President and General Manager of xPL Offsite, explains how xPL is redefining construction through offsite manufacturing and deep supply chain integration, starting with data centers and expanding into sectors like semiconductors, healthcare, and industrial facilities. He contrasts traditional, fragmented construction with xPL's unified model that centralizes manufacturing, supply chain, and field installation to handle unprecedented demand and labor shortages. Using a rapid 30MW data center deployment as a case study, Drew shows how close coordination, prefabrication, and early procurement decisions enabled timelines that would be impossible under conventional methods. He also discusses the limits of true “manufacturing” in construction today, xPL's use of automation and robotics, and why he believes modularization will become the dominant way we build in the next century. Highlights from their conversation include: Drew's Background at Turner and Personal Story (0:54) What xPL Offsite Does and Why It Was Created (2:02) How Exponential Party Logistics Reimagines Construction Supply Chains (4:15) Industrial Renaissance, Data Centers, and Physical Economy Bottlenecks (7:25) Why Offsite Construction Is Not Yet True Manufacturing (8:23) Case Study: 30MW “Emergency” Data Center Deployment (10:36) How Integrated Teams Beat Traditional Construction Timelines (11:06) Labor Shortage, Skilled Trades, and Bringing Work to Workers (13:25) Role of Automation, Robotics, and Smart Factory Concepts (15:50) Expanding Beyond Data Centers Into Healthcare, Sports, and Industrial (19:38) Future of Construction and Shift to Modularized Building Models (21:51) Global Modularization Vision for Turner and ACS (24:10) Closing Thoughts and Episode Wrap-Up (25:29) Dynamo Ventures is a venture firm backing founders upgrading the physical economy.

Around the world, factories making food, drink, pharmaceuticals and other everyday products rely on steam, often produced by fossil-fuel boilers. James Macnaghten, founder and CEO of Caldera, is betting that thermal batteries can provide a cheaper and more flexible alternative that stores electricity as heat, and delivers steam on demand. This week on Cleaning Up, Bryony Worthington visits Caldera's factory to see how it makes its heat batteries: combining recycled aluminium and iron ore pellets to create a long-lasting, efficient heat store. The technology is designed for industrial processes up to 200°C, which James sees as a major opportunity for electrification. They discuss how thermal storage can help factories manage peaks in demand, use electricity when it is cheap or abundant, and reduce pressure on congested grids. They also explore Caldera's plans to scale, its journey from domestic heating to industry, and why James believes a more pragmatic approach to electrification is needed. Topics discussed in this episode: The hidden opportunity in industrial heat How Caldera's heat batteries work Why steam still matters Heat pumps and thermal storage Managing industrial demand spikes Turning surplus power into heat Scaling a UK climate-tech company The case for pragmatic electrification Leadership Circle: Cleaning Up is proud to be supported by its Leadership Circle.

Much of Australia's energy transition debate has focused on electricity – renewables, transmission, batteries and the grid. But there's another part of the transition that's arguably just as important, and one that receives far less attention: the future of liquid fuels. In this episode, Gilbert + Tobin partners Jamie Guthrie and Ilona Millar are joined by Céline Parle, Sustainable Aviation Fuel Investments, Airbus and Mac Irvine, Chief Financial Officer, Jet Zero Australia, with Giles Parkinson, Founder and Editor-in-Chief of Renew Economy, moderating the discussion. They explore the role sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) could play in Australia's energy transition – from decarbonising aviation and strengthening fuel security to creating a new domestic industry. The discussion considers what it will take to get Australian SAF projects off the ground, including investment, policy support and the demand certainty needed to make projects commercially viable.

Scarlett O'Hara guitarist and founding member Logan Burns joins Scott Penfold on the Loaded Radio Podcast. The South Texas metalcore band have spent 2026 releasing three singles — REDRUM, BREAK ME and COMMON SIDE EFFECTS — each pushing further into cyberpunk-industrial territory than anything in their catalogue. We get into where that turn came from, how far it can go before it stops sounding like Scarlett O'Hara, and why nostalgia is the last thing on this band's mind eighteen years in. We also go back to the beginning: getting signed to Rise Records out of high school in McAllen, Texas, making Lost In Existence with Joey Sturgis, the deal ending, the band ending, and the six or seven years in between before they regrouped and put a self-released record on three Billboard charts with no label behind it.

Canary Cry Radio celebrates its 200th episode with Chuck and Maverick Pilgrim of Fire Theft Radio.Together, they reflect on a decade of fringe Christian podcasting and examine how independent alternative media became a corporate industry increasingly shaped by algorithms, intelligence connections and manufactured narratives.The conversation explores occult symbolism, archetypes, social engineering, modern movies, frequency warfare, magic and economics in the Book of Acts, and Paul's warning in Colossians 2 against becoming captive to deceptive philosophies and the elemental spirits of the world.In an age when “waking up” can become another system of control, how can Christians remain discerning without becoming trapped by endless decoding? The answer may be simpler, and more biblical, than chasing the next revelation: remain rooted in Christ, encourage one another through faith and preserve genuine fellowship.TIMESTAMPS00:00:00 — Episode 200 introduction and value-for-value00:03:17 — Welcoming Chuck and Maverick of Fire Theft Radio00:09:06 — Ten years of fringe Christian podcasting00:12:46 — The podcast industrial complex and corporate alternative media00:23:39 — When occult symbolism became mainstream00:34:08 — Hidden symbols, deer, trains and Disclosure Day00:49:02 — The messages hidden between the obvious symbols00:59:18 — Frequency warfare, spiritual fear and God's sovereignty01:07:26 — Magic, money and supernatural power in Acts01:19:45 — Archetypes, modern movies and cultural programming01:38:14 — Colossians 2: Avoiding captivity through deceptive philosophy01:50:13 — Viral “free thinkers” and independent blue-collar podcasters01:54:17 — Fellowship, encouragement and the purpose of podcasting02:01:09 — Fire Theft Radio history and closing reflectionsLINKShttps://CanaryCry.Support
