In this episode of The Jess Larsen Show on Innovation & Leadership, Jess sits down with serial entrepreneur Diaz Nesamoney to explore the evolution of data, AI, and the future of commerce. Diaz shares his journey from growing up across multiple countries to co-founding Informatica—one of the early enterprise software giants that rode the wave of the internet boom—and the hard-earned lessons that came from building and scaling billion-dollar companies. He dives into the realities of entrepreneurship, from near financial collapse in the early days to the importance of persistence, customer feedback, and strategic pivots. The conversation then shifts to Diaz's latest venture, DaVinci Commerce, where he's betting on the convergence of AI and first-party data to fundamentally reshape how consumers discover and buy products. He explains how conversational AI platforms are replacing traditional search, why personalized advertising is becoming dramatically more effective, and how brands can build a presence inside emerging AI ecosystems.

**Boys and Girls, We're Back! Tyler from MORRFlate Returns – Tire Inflation Wars, Copycats, Patents & Off-Road Innovation** We're back with another awesome episode of the Jeep Talk Show! Tyler from MORRFlate joins us again for a raw, honest conversation about building a business in the off-road world, dealing with big-time copycats, patent battles, and why competition (the right kind) actually drives innovation. Tyler has been wheeling Toyotas all over California since he was a kid, lives close to the Rubicon Trail, runs NorCal 4x4 Rescue, co-hosts the Snail Trail 4x4 Podcast, and has poured serious support into trail advocacy. In this return visit (first one was back in September 2025), he opens up about getting threatened by a major player, the reality of enforcing patents, and how a $3M company competes against $45M giants with deep marketing pockets. We dive deep into: - How MORRFlate's 4-tire inflation/deflation system works (connects all four tires as one big air tank, equalizes pressure automatically, saves massive time on the trail) - The frustration of direct copies (even stealing the signature neon green color) - Why patents aren't the silver bullet everyone thinks - Airflow limitations of Schrader valves and future ideas to fix the bottleneck - Building a company from a garage condo to a team of 8+ with a warehouse in Sacramento - Lifetime warranties, obsessive quality control, and hiring fellow off-roaders - AI chatbots on the website, robots in manufacturing, and how AI is changing marketing and product design Tyler also shares his 30-second elevator pitch: MORRFlate makes airing up and down your tires super convenient so you can actually enjoy the trail instead of babysitting a compressor. If you've ever deflated for traction, fought with individual tire hoses, or dreamed of faster air-ups on your Jeep, Toyota, or any rig — this one's for you. **Timestamps:** 00:00:00 Show Opening 00:00:10 Misnaming Moore Flat 00:00:31 Tyler's Background & Sales 00:01:19 Previous Interview & Threats 00:02:06 Acquisition Threat & Patent Journey 00:03:08 Patent Approval & Copycats 00:04:01 Company Name Confidential 00:04:33 Patent Enforcement Costs 00:05:21 Competition and Innovation 00:06:35 Amazon Listings & Pricing 00:08:03 RealTruck Ownership Impact 00:09:12 Podcast Monetization Issues 00:09:41 Morfleet Product Overview 00:11:07 Tire Deflation Benefits 00:12:59 Airflow Limits of Valves 00:13:28 Air Tank Volume Calculations 00:14:43 Limited Tank Capacity Demo 00:15:46 Compressor Performance Insights 00:16:24 Personal Projects & Ideas 00:17:40 Upcoming Valve Projects 00:19:07 Valve Interior Flow Restriction 00:21:41 Heavy Equipment Valve Solutions 00:23:48 Apex Rapid Valve Review 00:24:15 Challenges with Large Tires 00:24:59 Passion for Problem Solving 00:29:04 Warehouse & Quality Control 00:34:48 Lifetime Warranty Strategy 00:37:02 Customer Focus Assurance 00:38:22 Employee Attitude Culture 00:39:50 Testing Competitor Gear 00:40:51 People-Centric Philosophy 00:43:28 Corporate vs Small Business 00:44:07 Politics and Truth 00:45:47 Vendor Conflict Over Copying 00:49:05 AI Chatbot Deployment 00:50:30 AI, Quality Control & Robotics 00:53:25 AI in Product Design 00:54:51 AI Impact on Jobs 00:57:45 Minimum Wage Debate 00:58:49 Digital Media & AI 01:02:40 Show Recap & Future 01:04:25 Closing Thanks 01:06:38 Final Thanks & Friendship 01:09:02 Interview Conclusion **Links:** - MORRFlate Official Site: https://morrflate.com/ (Check out the Quad hose kits, Air Hub, and play with their AI chatbot!) - Tyler on Instagram/X: @4x4ToyotaTyler - MORRFlate on Social: @morrflate - Snail Trail 4x4 Podcast: Search "Snail Trail 4x4" on your favorite platform (830+ episodes!)

This week, Coach Blu speaks to Richard Baum, a former acting drug czar and Georgetown professor, draws on decades of experience in drug policy to offer a thoughtful look at the opioid crisis and broader addiction challenges. In this episode, he discusses how addiction is not just a personal issue, but a public health problem that affects families, communities, and government systems. He explains that effective responses require more than punishment or short-term fixes. Instead, they need a balanced approach that includes prevention, treatment, recovery support, and smart policy. Baum highlights the importance of evidence-based strategies, such as expanding access to treatment, supporting harm reduction efforts, and making sure people struggling with addiction can get help without unnecessary barriers. He also emphasizes that lasting progress depends on cooperation between communities, healthcare providers, and government leaders. By working together, they can create systems that reduce overdose deaths, improve recovery outcomes, and address the root causes of substance use disorders.

Episode Description:In this From the Archive episode, James talks with Cal Newport about a simple but uncomfortable idea: most people are working hard on the wrong things.Newport breaks down the difference between deep work—focused, cognitively demanding effort that produces rare and valuable output—and shallow work, which fills time but doesn't move the needle. In a world engineered to fragment attention, the ability to focus without distraction is becoming both rarer and more valuable.The conversation moves from theory to application. Newport explains why “follow your passion” is misleading, how career capital actually drives opportunity, and why deliberate practice—not repetition—is what builds real skill. The thread tying it together is practical: if you want meaningful work and success, you have to train your ability to concentrate and aggressively eliminate distractions.What makes this episode useful is that it reframes productivity entirely. It's not about working more hours or hustling harder—it's about doing fewer things, better, with full attention.What You'll Learn:Why becoming “so good they can't ignore you” is more reliable than chasing passionThe difference between deep work and shallow work—and why most people overvalue the latterHow career capital (rare and valuable skills) creates leverage for autonomy and successWhy deliberate practice—not repetition—is the fastest path to masteryHow attention residue and constant distraction quietly destroy cognitive performanceTimestamped Chapters:[02:00] The attention economy and why distraction is engineered[02:17] The “deep life” and prioritizing focus[03:01] Why success comes from rare and valuable output[04:16] Why better content beats growth hacks[05:00] “Be so good they can't ignore you” explained[05:57] Why deep work is becoming rare—and valuable[06:29] The Steve Martin story and mastery over shortcuts[08:08] Innovation only happens at the cutting edge[09:00] Why passion is often discovered, not predefined[10:00] Passion follows skill—not the other way around[11:11] Career capital: what it is and why it matters[13:00] How to build leverage in your career[14:53] Real-world example: designing a flexible life through skill[16:00] Deliberate practice vs repetition[17:34] Why discomfort is required for improvement[19:50] The cost of distraction and attention fragmentation[20:20] The “deep life” as an intentional lifestyle[21:21] Why eliminating low-value communication matters[23:25] Training focus as a skill, not a habit[25:00] Fighting your brain and attention residue[27:00] How deep work actually improves output[30:12] Balancing academic work and writing[32:00] Why audience engagement has diminishing returns[34:00] The danger of the “any benefit” mindset[36:00] Why busyness is not productivity[38:00] Limits of deep work and cognitive intensity[39:25] Embracing boredom to retrain attention[41:05] The future of knowledge work[42:20] Goals vs process: a historical perspective[44:29] Why biographies teach excellence best[45:07] Teddy Roosevelt as a deep work example[46:43] Deep work as a “superpower”[47:15] Handling disappointment through craft[48:22] Passion follows skill—final takeawayAdditional Resources:Deep WorkSo Good They Can't Ignore YouCal Newport's official websiteLittle Bets by Peter SimsThe Rise of Theodore Roosevelt by Edmund MorrisSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Empty gigawatt factories, product recalls, participation rates that never materialised, and a policy environment that has now stripped the green premium entirely. The electrolyzer industry has had a brutal few years and most of the companies that raised hundreds of millions on the back of the hydrogen hype cycle are now sitting with fixed costs they cannot sustain and field deployments they are not proud of. Host Bridget van Dorsten speaks with Raveel Afzaal, CEO of Next Hydrogen, one of the few electrolyzer manufacturers that chose to watch from the sidelines while competitors scaled into the storm. Raveel describes the decision in blunt terms: in 2021, when cost of capital went to near zero and capital discipline evaporated, Next Hydrogen looked at the macro signals; rising inflation, rising interest rates, a market telling them their Hyundai partnership was worth a 5% share price drop, and chose to extend their runway from 18 months to five years. That meant hard capital allocation decisions, and the answer was to invest in the product, not the factory. The conversation goes deep into a problem that rarely gets discussed publicly: the commercialisation valley of death. Getting to a working prototype is celebrated, but the productisation phase, technology readiness levels five through seven, is where the funding gap is most severe and the cost shock is greatest. Costs typically rise three to five times from prototype stage, revenues do not yet exist, and neither government programmes nor conventional investors are structured to bridge it. Raveel explains why so many companies that made it to prototype stage never made it to commercial deployment and what surviving that valley actually required. Raveel also pushes back on a common framing around Chinese versus Western electrolyzers. His argument is that the quality question is not a national origin question , it is a materials question. What membranes, what bipolar plates, what catalyst, what functional safety architecture? Next Hydrogen's own answer to those questions is unusual: replacing nickel bipolar plates with large injection-moulded specialty engineered plastics, eliminating corrosion risk entirely and reducing cost through higher material utilisation rather than lower-grade materials. The company holds 40 patents on a cell architecture designed from the outset for direct connection to variable renewables, a design decision made in 2008, when the rest of the industry was still building for baseload. The episode closes on what the next two to three years look like for electrolyzer manufacturers. Raveel's view is that consolidation is coming, but many companies won't survive long enough to be part of it, their fixed costs are too high and their runway too short. The companies that survive will be those with variable cost models, disciplined project selection, and a genuine answer to three questions: Can you access excess electrons? Can you deliver containerised, plug-and-play solutions that control total installed cost? Can you reliably handle the intermittent operations that direct renewable connection demands? Next Hydrogen is betting the answer starts with getting the cell design right first. Today's episode is sponsored by GridBeyond.

Relentless in her pursuits would be an understatement because Kerrin Laz is a force of nature.  Kerrin is the type of person the wine trade needs...now. She is chock full of energy, a plethora of ideas, and a cavalcade of pathways to get there. She will be on the show again; there were too many subjects we never discussed. Sitting down with Kerrin Laz was like flipping open a well-loved journal and discovering a handful of stories you'd forgotten you needed to hear. There's a warmth to the East Coast energy she carries with her, this tenacity blended with familiarity—sort of like sipping an old-vine Zinfandel that carries the sun of California but has the grit of Long Island soil. Right out of the gate, Karen Laz reminded me of those early, stumbling steps we all take in our careers. She grew up in New York, knew Dean & DeLuca as an iconic place—couldn't resist popping in for a cup of coffee, even though her resume, as she freely admits, "had, like, nothing on it" 00:06. When asked if she preferred food or wine, she just sort of shrugged and said, "Wine, I guess." That honest uncertainty? I find that refreshing. Most people will fabricate a grand narrative about their calling, but Karen Laz is humble enough to admit a little serendipity goes a long way. But don't let that humility fool you. Ten years leading her own wine collection, a knack for knowing what guests want before they do, and the rare ability to forge real partnerships with wineries—she's seriously dialed in. I marveled when she described how growing up on Long Island, she watched potato fields transform into vineyards. The region's rise in agro-tourism stuck with me—how people from the city pour into the North Fork and don't think twice about whether the wines are international gold medalists. "It brings excitement," she told me 06:14, "it gets people interested." Sometimes, wine is about adventure—stomping out to a farmstand, finding a bright Merlot, or realizing, incredulously, that some Long Island wineries still only ship within New York 03:46. One thing I picked up fast: Karen Laz is obsessed with the guest experience. She's made it her mission to create truly tailored wine tastings—her team asks questions, customizes lineups, brings in wines that excite her personally, not just what's expected. She has that gift for bringing nervous new tasters right into the fold, making them feel like collectors before they've even bought a bottle 09:01. As someone who's spent decades trying to match people with the right glass, I recognize how rare that skill is. Of course, we dove deep into wine business nitty-gritty as only two veterans can: the hotel rates in Napa these days, how the pandemic shifted staff and guest expectations, and the ever-higher bar for making the DTC wine game work. We commiserated about the "innovation" that nobody wants—wine in pouches, anyone?—and agreed that the future of our trade lies in experience, not just packaging 25:03. But the heart of our conversation came when Karen Laz opened up about her philanthropic work—her mother's Alzheimer's journey and the creation of Inspire Napa Valley 42:57. Her passion for making a difference was palpable. She's raised over $9 million, funneling funds directly into research and care, not just awareness. This is what happens when someone, out of necessity and love, channels their professional success into something bigger than profit. In the end, it all circles back—relationships, authenticity, and a willingness to roll up your sleeves for guests, friends, and causes that matter. That's what the wine business should be, and Karen Laz is living proof. Sitting with her, I was reminded that sometimes the best bottles are poured at a table where the stories matter as much as the juice in the glass.   https://youtu.be/c8cKLJSU2M8

In this episode of The Circuit, Ben Bajarin and Jay Goldberg analyze a pivotal week in tech, beginning with TSMC's strong earnings and their strategic decision to ramp up CapEx and N3 production specifically to meet massive AI demand. The duo explores the industry-wide compute deficit impacting firms like Anthropic and the potential IPO of Cerebras, while discussing the fragmenting market for custom ASICs as Google explores design partners like Marvell and MediaTek. Finally, they weigh in on the end of an era at Apple with Tim Cook stepping down; they argue his greatest legacy was preserving the company's unique culture while handing the reins to John Ternus to lead a new hardware and AI growth cycle.

What barriers might you (and students) encounter and how can you get over, around, or through them? We talk through these with Susan McCahan, Vice Provost for Innovations in Undergraduate Education at the University of Toronto. Episode Highlights include:  [03:54] Defining the Experiential Learning Menu – Susan McCahan defines experiential learning broadly at the University of Toronto, ranging from traditional co-ops and internships to undergraduate research and specialized work-study roles. [05:24] Data-Driven Student Success – The Vice Provost's office utilizes work-study students to analyze institutional data, identifying key correlations between co-curricular involvement and higher student retention rates. [11:46] Navigating Intellectual Property – To reduce friction for partners and faculty, the university provides clear resources on IP ownership, distinguishing between corporate-owned placement work and student-owned course projects. [18:07] Building Professional Confidence – Engaging with community clients, such as designing solutions for a local women's shelter, shifts student focus from simple grade attainment to understanding the real-world impact of their professional identity. [25:35] Addressing Accessibility Barriers – The university is focused on creating a "smooth handoff" for students with disabilities and financial constraints to ensure experiential opportunities are inclusive and frictionless

With over two decades spent building tech companies in mobile and social media, Anna Gudmundson witnessed firsthand the transformative power of technology—and its unintended consequences. Phone addiction and social media anxiety became real problems for millions, prompting her to reconsider what responsible innovation looks like. This experience set the stage for her most meaningful work: co-founding Sensate, a wellness technology company that leverages infrasonic therapy to regulate the nervous system and rebuild vagal tone for stress resilience and emotional well-being. Anna refuses to make exaggerated claims or engage in the growth hacking tactics that plague the industry, instead building trust through real user reviews and measurable results. Her philosophy extends beyond business metrics to a deeper conviction about human consciousness and empathy. She believes that when people regulate their nervous systems, they gain access to their prefrontal cortex—the seat of empathy and executive function—enabling them to show up more fully for their families, communities, and themselves. If you're ready to experience nervous system regulation firsthand, visit www.getsensate.com to explore the Sensate device and guided sessions, and use the exclusive discount code AMPLIFIED for 10% off any order—a special offer created specifically for our YBA community.

Join our champion program: mark@themomentumcompany.comAttend a Thriving Leader event: https://thriving-leader-2026.lovable.app/Instagram: @the.momentum.companyLinkedIn: /momentum-companyIn this episode of The Intentional Agribusiness Leader, Mark sits down with Jay Vroom, President of VroomLeigh Agriculture and former CEO of CropLife America, for a powerful conversation shaped by over 45 years of leadership in agriculture.Jay defines intentional leadership in one word:Listening.Not hearing—but truly listening.Across decades of leadership, Jay has seen more failures come from a lack of listening than almost anything else. When leaders take the time to understand perspectives, empathize, and prepare for conversations, their decisions and communication carry far greater impact.But listening requires more than presence—it requires preparation.Great leaders don't show up reacting. They anticipate. They understand who's in the room, where people come from, and what matters to them. In a global, highly connected agricultural industry, that level of awareness is no longer optional.The conversation also dives into one of the most defining challenges of Jay's career: leading through the repeal of the Delaney Clause.What started as a regulatory issue quickly became a national crisis—fueled by media, public perception, and fear. It took eight years, hundreds of organizations, and relentless persistence to build a coalition strong enough to change the law.The lesson?Big problems don't get solved alone.They require patience, alignment, and the ability to bring people together around a shared objective—even when opinions differ.Looking forward, Jay highlights a critical inflection point for agriculture.Innovation is accelerating—but regulatory bottlenecks are slowing progress. The cost and complexity of bringing new technologies to market continue to rise, creating real risk for the future of crop protection and food production.At the same time, the opportunity has never been greater.Precision agriculture, digital tools, and new technologies have the potential to dramatically improve how we grow food—making it more efficient, more sustainable, and more responsive to consumer needs.But success will depend on more than innovation.It will depend on storytelling.Agriculture must do a better job communicating its value—particularly around environmental outcomes, sustainability, and the quality of food being produced.The next chapter isn't just about feeding the world.It's about feeding the world better.And that requires leaders who are willing to listen, adapt, and engage in conversations that aren't always easy—but are absolutely necessary.Because leadership isn't about having all the answers.It's about being willing to hear what others are trying to say.Listen if you are:Leading through complex or high-stakes challengesNavigating regulation, policy, or industry changeTrying to influence outcomes across multiple stakeholdersThinking about the future direction of agricultureCommitted to becoming a more intentional, effective leader

VivaTech voit plus grand pour ses 10 ans. Meta imagine un avatar de Mark Zuckerberg pour parler aux salariés.Avec Bruno Guglielminetti (Mon Carnet)Gemini devient une “intelligence personnelle” (00:28) Nous revenons sur l'arrivée de la fonction de personnalisation de Gemini, qui relie des services comme Gmail, Photos, YouTube ou Search pour produire des réponses beaucoup plus contextuelles. Bruno raconte un test grandeur nature : projets en cours, notes, déplacements, recherche de billets et suggestions concrètes, avec à la clé une expérience impressionnante mais aussi de vraies questions sur la vie privée.François Ruffin prend l'IA Claude pour un oracle (07:36) Nous analysons la séquence où François Ruffin dialogue publiquement avec Claude, dans une mise en scène inspirée de Bernie Sanders. Le procédé fait parler, mais il entretient selon nous une vision trompeuse de l'IA : celle d'un oracle neutre et tout-puissant, alors qu'un chatbot reflète aussi les biais du prompt, du contexte et de l'historique de conversation.H Company lance son agent HoloTab (12:07) La startup française H Company lance l'agent HoloTab, une extension Chrome capable de naviguer, cliquer, remplir des champs et exécuter des tâches directement sur le Web. L'outil illustre le virage agentique du moment, avec une promesse séduisante — automatiser des actions réelles — mais aussi un niveau d'accès qui impose une vigilance maximale.

Brandon Weichert discusses his book Biohacked, explaining China's "Field of Dreams" strategy to dominate high-tech sectors by attracting Western talent and investors to their innovation hubs. This approach stems from Mao Zedong's goal to catch up to and eventually defeat the United States using its own technological expertise. Central to this effort is the Thousand Talents Program, which identifies and recruits global scientific experts — including Yale genetics students lured by offers to pay off massive student debt in exchange for industrial espionage.

In this episode of Innovation Meets Leadership, host Natalie Born continues the Set It on Fire: The Art of Innovation series by diving into Chapter 2: Get Out of My Sandbox. Joined again by Moriah Hidden as the co-host, Natalie unpacks one of the biggest hidden barriers to innovation inside organization, ownership silos.While many organizations believe innovation belongs to a specific department or select group of “creative thinkers,” Natalie challenges this mindset by introducing the concept of the “sandbox.” When innovation is confined to a single team, it limits collaboration, creates resistance, and prevents organizations from reaching their full potential.This conversation explores how leaders can break down silos, invite cross-functional collaboration, and shift organizations from isolated idea ownership to shared responsibility. For organizations ready to move beyond resistance and into action, this episode offers a practical look at how to create a culture where everyone sees themselves as an innovator.[00:00 – 02:30] Continuing the Set It on Fire Series· Natalie introduces Chapter 2 and the concept behind “Get Out of My Sandbox”· Moriah returns as interviewer to guide the conversation· The focus shifts from foundation (Chapter 1) to organizational barriers[02:31 – 06:30] What Is the “Sandbox”?· How organizations unintentionally assign innovation to specific people or departments· Examples: innovation living with leadership, tech teams, or “creative” groups· Why this creates exclusivity around idea generation[06:31 – 10:30] The Problem with Silos· How “ownership” of ideas leads to resistance from other teams· Why employees hesitate to contribute outside their role or department· The connection between silos and stalled innovation[10:31 – 14:30] Moving from Resistance to Action· Why Chapter 2 is the “resistance chapter” in the innovation journey· How leaders can identify where resistance is showing up internally· Shifting mindset from protection to participation[14:31 – 18:30] Innovation as a Team Sport· Why innovation should not be independent—but interdependent· The importance of cross-functional collaboration· How diverse perspectives strengthen ideas and execution[18:31 – 22:30] Creating Shared Ownership· Encouraging every team member to see themselves as an innovator· Breaking the belief that only certain roles are “idea people”· How leaders can invite contribution across all levels[22:31 – 25:30] Leadership's Role in Breaking Silos· Modeling openness to ideas from any department· Removing barriers that limit collaboration· Building systems and culture that support shared innovation[25:31 – 27:30] First Steps for Organizations· Identify where innovation is currently “owned”· Create opportunities for cross-team idea sharing· Reinforce that innovation is everyone's responsibilityQuotes“Innovation doesn't belong to a department—it belongs to the organization.” – Natalie Born“When we protect our sandbox, we limit what's possible.” – Natalie Born“The best ideas don't come from one team—they come from collaboration.” – Natalie BornConnect with Natalie Born:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nataliebornWebsite: https://innovationmeetsleadership.comBook: Set It on Fire: The Art of InnovationBook & Resources: https://setitonfire.coIf this conversation challenged your perspective, share it with a leader or team that's ready to break down silos and rethink how innovation really happens.

Jody K. Jeane of Leesville was arrested after submitting a 12-pound largemouth bass to a local “lunker” program, which rewards anglers who catch fish over 10 pounds with a free replica mount. To qualify, participants must truthfully report where the fish was caught and release it back into the same body of water. Jeane claimed he caught the fish at Toledo Bend Reservoir. But wildlife agents had already seen him earlier that day at a different location—Vernon Lake—where he proudly showed off the same fish. Distinct markings on the bass, along with social media photos, helped confirm the fish's true origin. Authorities say Jeane later admitted to falsifying the information. He now faces charges of attempted theft and forgery, which could carry a penalty of up to 10 years in prison. Officials say the program is designed to promote conservation and highlight trophy fishing opportunities, not to be exploited. The incident has stirred local attention, especially after a second person reportedly tried to submit the same fish weeks later. Wildlife authorities emphasize that honesty is essential to keeping such programs fair and effective. Reference: https://www.outdoorlife.com/fishing/bass-angler-jailed-lunker-fraud/ Idaho Tightens Rules on Lifetime Hunting Licenses Idaho has passed a new law making it much harder to qualify for a lifetime hunting or fishing license, after complaints that out-of-state hunters were exploiting the system. Previously, applicants only needed to live in Idaho for six months to qualify. Under the new law, that requirement increases to five years of consecutive residency. The change takes effect July 1. Lawmakers say the update targets people who briefly moved to Idaho, bought a lifetime license at a lower resident cost, and then moved away—while still benefiting from resident status in future hunting tag drawings. State Representative James Petzke, who introduced the bill, said the goal is to ensure these licenses go to people who  genuinely commit to living in the state. The licenses, which can cost several hundred to over a thousand dollars depending on age, allow hunters and anglers to remain in the resident pool for tag draws, even if they later leave Idaho. That made them especially appealing to nonresidents looking for long-term advantages. Groups like the Idaho Wildlife Federation supported the change, noting concerns from residents about so-called “loophole” use—sometimes involving remote workers or hunting influencers temporarily relocating. While officials haven't provided exact numbers of misuse, thousands of lifetime licenses have been issued in recent years. Supporters argue the new five-year rule better reflects the program's intent: rewarding long-term residents, not short-term opportunists. Idaho now has one of the strictest residency requirements in the country for lifetime sporting licenses—second only to Wyoming. Sample of state residency requirements (typically consecutive): 10 years: Wyoming 5 years: Idaho 1.5 years: Mississippi 1 year: Arkansas, Kansas, Minnesota, New York, Tennessee 6 months: Arizona, California, Texas 30 days: West Virginia Valid driver's license: Georgia Officials say the new law is meant to preserve fairness and maintain public trust in a program designed for committed residents.

Every Saturday, we showcase a topic important to you by rounding up the greatest highlights and clips from Level 10 Contractor's ENTIRE podcast run. This week, we cover the topic of innovation. Let's face it: if you are not innovating your business, then you're stagnating. Worse, your competition might be doing the hard work you're avoiding which means they'll outshine you. Innovation has always been a big part of what Rich teaches and preaches about… and he's kind of cracked the code. We will hear a couple of Rich's 20 different innovation formulas–that's right, 20 tricks to stand above the rest. Plus Rich discusses two of the greatest innovators he's encountered.

Professor Richard Epstein critiques Senator Bernie Sanders' proposed moratorium on AI data centers, arguing that Sanders fundamentally misunderstands innovation and that his socialist rhetoric ignores the economic benefits of decentralized, small-scale technological development and startups.

In this episode, Peter Garretson talks with Heather Pringle, Maj Gen, USAF (Ret.), PhD, CEO of Space Foundation. They discuss the 2026 Space Symposium and its themes. 2026 marks a major shift from aspirational vision to concrete execution, with unprecedented scale in participation (343 exhibitors, 50+nations). The conversation covers the current trends: Golden Dome ($175B), NASA's Lunar Base ($20B), the SpaceX IPO ($1.75T valuation), and the increasing role of finance. They also address the importance of AI, the new demands for scale, and the need for a workforce to support it. They touch on the Space Foundation's work to ensure next generation talent, and the Space Generation Advisory Council.  They close by talking about Pringle's career path, lessons learned from AFRL and the transition to Space Foundation, and the exciting conversations ahead to take the space ecosystem to the next level.

"Document everything." Spring startup season exposes more than operational stress. It also reveals what happened months earlier when systems were laid up poorly, maintenance steps were skipped, or warning signs were documented but not acted on. In this episode, Trace Blackmore connects that reality to a broader infrastructure problem: hidden damage inside pressure piping systems that operators often cannot see until a leak, rupture, or budget crisis forces action.     Why hidden pressure pipe problems are so expensive  Chris McDonald, CEO and President of CPM Pipelines, explains why pressure pipe inspection and rehabilitation deserve more attention from utilities and industrial facilities. His core point is practical: many owners are still making repair or replacement decisions without first getting a high-resolution look at the pipe's actual condition.  That creates two risks. First, teams may spend too late, after a failure creates public, operational, or safety consequences. Second, they may spend too much, replacing long stretches of pipe when only a targeted section actually needs rehabilitation. Chris argues that better inspection narrows uncertainty and helps owners avoid both extremes.  Inspection first, then the right rehabilitation scope  A major theme in the conversation is that CPM Pipelines works across both inspection and rehab, which changes how projects are evaluated. Chris notes that many inspection firms inspect, and many rehab firms rehabilitate, but few do both. That difference matters because the best answer is not always the biggest project.  He shares an example of a recent force main inspection that showed half the line was in bad condition and half was in very bad condition, yet the data still allowed the agency to target the rehab scope precisely. According to Chris, that approach saved a small utility of almost $10 million. He also explains why trenchless rehab can often reduce project schedules from months to weeks and save roughly 50% compared with traditional dig-and-replace work.  Leadership, documentation, and building the right team  The conversation also moves beyond pipelines into business leadership. Chris reflects on entrepreneurship, the value of solution-driven work over commodity selling, and the importance of documenting systems early if a company intends to scale.  He also emphasizes team alignment, core values, and recognizing quickly when someone is in the wrong seat. For owners and managers, that part of the episode is as useful as the technical discussion. The takeaway is clear: strong execution depends on both sound field data and disciplined internal systems.  Pressure pipe problems are often invisible until they become urgent. This conversation shows why better inspection, better decision timing, and better documentation can improve both infrastructure outcomes and business results.  Listen to the full conversation above.

We're all familiar with the tropes around innovation and how it starts. You just need a garage in Silicon Valley, a few geniuses and visionaries, maybe some good snacks. Our guests today help us debunk that myth. Rich Braden and Tessa Forshaw wrote a book called Innovation-ish, and that little “-ish” is doing a lot of work. Rich Braden is a design strategist who's taught innovation at Stanford and advised companies around the world. Tessa Forshaw is a cognitive scientist whose lab studies the psychology of creativity — why we lose it, and how we get it back. In this conversation, we talk about why most innovation doesn't have to be a moonshot — and why chasing moonshots might actually be holding your team back. We dig into the neuroscience of what Tessa calls “innovation hesitation,” the tiny amygdala response that makes us reach for certainty instead of possibility. Bios Tessa Forshaw As a co-founder of the Next Level Lab at Harvard University, Tessa specializes in using cognitive science to develop creative and innovative potential in the workforce. She draws upon her academic research as a cognitive scientist and extensive background as a former designer at IDEO CoLAb and Accenture to turn the cognitive processes involved in design, creativity and innovation into practical insights that can be applied in the flow of work. These insights are also the foundations of what she teaches as a design educator at Stanford University and now Harvard University. Recognized for her impactful design projects, Tessa is the recipient of multiple design awards: a Fast Company Design Award for General Excellence, two Core77 Industrial Design Magazine Design Awards, and the Australian American Chamber of Commerce Innovation Awards. Rich Braden Rich Braden is the founder of People Rocket LLC, a strategic innovation firm based in San Francisco. With over 15 years of academic experience, Rich is a recognized thought leader in design thinking, leadership, and innovation. He is a design educator at renowned institutions including Harvard University, Stanford University, and London Business School, helping shape future leaders. As CEO of People Rocket, he works with clients such as Airbnb, Google, the United Nations, Microsoft, Coca-Cola, Starbucks, and Red Cross to drive strategic innovation and responsible AI solutions. Rich holds degrees in Computer and Electrical Engineering from Purdue University and resides in the San Francisco Bay Area. *** Premium Episodes on Design Better This ad-supported episode is available to everyone.

When the workings of an electricity market come to the attention of the White House, it's usually a sign that something's wrong. Back in January, 13 state governors went to the White House to agree plans for PJM, the largest electricity market in the US. The market is scrambling to find more energy supply to keep up with the boom in data centers, while holding down ratepayers' bills. Managing the PJM grid is one of the toughest jobs in the US power industry. And these days it is being carried out in the full glare of political and public scrutiny.If you want to understand the pressures bearing down on the US electricity, PJM is the place to look. It is the largest grid in the country, serving 67 million people across 13 states and the District of Columbia. And it is some of the world's most intense hotspots for new data center development, including the famous “data center alley” of northern Virginia, which takes roughly 90% of the country's internet traffic . When things get complicated for PJM, they get complicated for everyone.On this episode, host Ed Crooks is joined by Asim Haque, Senior Vice President for Governmental and Member Services at PJM, and by regular guest Amy Myers Jaffe, Director of the Energy, Climate Justice and Sustainability Lab at New York University. Together, they unpack how PJM got itself noticed by the White House, and how its problems can be tackled.Asim explains the organization he works for. PJM is a nonprofit that operates the grid, runs the electricity market, and plans the transmission system. It is regulated by FERC, but also accountable to a thousand-plus members across 13 states, each with its own energy policies, its own governor, and its own politics. That structural complexity is central to why running PJM is so challenging.Those problems converged from two directions: decarbonization and data centers. The result has been soaring prices in the PJM capacity market. And when those prices were capped, the alarms about a future reliability crisis started flashing red.The White House responded by convening all 13 governors of the states covered by PJM, and produced a statement of principles for bringing new generation capacity into the market. As Asim explains, these principles lie behind the plan for a backstop reliability procurement, designed as a one-time mechanism to bring new electricity supply onto the system quickly.There is also an expectation that data centres will bring their own generation; and a "connect and manage" framework for those that don't. The key feature of that: data centers can have their supply curtailed before residential customers lose power. The White House and the governors agreed that the bill for grid and generation improvements to meet rising demand should be paid by the data centers. It sounds straightforward, but is it really? Asim explains his perspective.The episode also examines the deeper design questions about PJM's capacity market: whether a three-year forward procurement window can send the right signals for the long-term investment the grid now needs. Amy brings the consumer and policy lens throughout. Are the complexities of cost allocation and market design inherent to the electricity system, or are they manufactured and even sometimes exaggerated? And can they sometimes militate against lower-cost solutions such as renewables and batteries?Asim ends by offering some advice for other grid operators. If you are not going to gate demand, you need a connect-and-manage approach; if you are not going to gate demand, it will get expensive; and if it is going to get expensive, you need to decide who pays.

5. ALEC STATION AND THE INNOVATION OF TARGETING Guest Mundy: Guest Mundy explores the 1990s formation of Alec Station, a "virtual station" dedicated to tracking Bin Laden. This unit uniquely combined analysts and operatives, allowing women to pioneer "targeting" by mapping al-Qaeda's organizational hierarchy,. Led by the abrasive Mike Scheuer, the group faced significant internal resistance; their warnings were often excluded from the President's Daily Brief because senior leadership doubted the threat,. Cindy Storer's realization that al-Qaeda was a sophisticated worldwide bureaucracy, rather than a loose confederation, was a revolutionary insight that the institutional hierarchy was slow to accept.
