Just in time for KBIS this year, I sat down with Jason McGraw from EmeraldX and Leanne Wood with Flying Camel to talk about the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) to preview the upcoming 2026 event in Orlando. This conversation dives deep into the strategic shifts for this year's show, including the expansion of the floor plan to nearly 1.2 million net square feet and the introduction of a new editorial format for product debuts. A major theme for KBIS 2026 is the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) across the industry. From the dedicated “Technology” track in the Voices from the Industry (VFTI) conference to live panel debates on AI’s role in luxury design, the show is positioning itself as the epicenter for modern design workflows. The team also discusses practical “pro-tips” for navigating the massive Orange County Convention Center, ensuring attendees maximize their time between the West, South, and North halls. You still have time to register and prepare for a groundbreaking event that will shape the way you think about your design business and sharpen your specification skills. And if you are going to the show this year in Orlando, please make sure you stop by the KBIS Podcast Studio and say hello. The KBIS 2026 Footprint: With over 700 exhibitors and 100,000+ expected professionals, Jason McGraw explains the logistical expansion into the Discovery District (located in the Rosen Centre) and how to navigate the skybridges and shuttles. Innovation Hour: Replacing the traditional “Design Bytes,” this new fast-paced “show + tell” session at noon on February 17th allows brands to present tactile stories. The audience will vote live for “Most Innovative” and “Most Unexpected.” AI and Technology: Leanne emphasizes how AI is no longer a “future” concept but a daily tool. This year features a “Technology Activation” and sessions focused on AI-powered customer journeys and smarter design workflows. The Best of KBIS Awards: The awards have expanded to seven categories, including “Sustainable Standout” and “Wellness Trailblazer.” Winners will be announced live on the NEXTStage on February 18th. The KBIS Podcast Studio: Now relocated to the West Hall Lobby, the studio—hosted by Josh—will feature 12 live sessions covering leadership, luxury, and the “business of design.” Wellness & Sustainability: For the first time, these two tracks have been merged into a unified focus, reflecting the interconnected nature of healthy, resilient living environments.

Preeclampsia is one of those pregnancy conditions that gets mentioned often, explained poorly, and frequently dismissed until it suddenly isn't. In this episode, HeHe sits down with Dr. Dallas Reed to pull back the curtain on what preeclampsia actually is, how it shows up, and what expectant parents deserve to understand long before things feel urgent. Together, they break down the basics in a way that's clear and human, including how common preeclampsia really is, what symptoms to take seriously, and how to make sense of blood pressure readings and pregnancy-related hypertension diagnoses. Dr. Reed explains the differences between severe and non-severe preeclampsia, what monitoring can look like before and after 37 weeks, and why postpartum preeclampsia deserves more attention than it often gets. The conversation also explores prevention and management, including lifestyle considerations, aspirin use, and how care plans may differ depending on risk level, gestational age, and whether someone is being monitored inpatient or outpatient. A major focus of the episode is the future of personalized maternal care, including a deep dive into the Encompass test. This new RNA-based blood test, available between 18 and 22 weeks, helps identify pregnancies at higher risk for preeclampsia and pairs that insight with an evidence-based action plan and virtual support. Dr. Reed shares how this type of testing may change the way providers and families approach monitoring, communication, and early intervention, including potential benefits for out-of-hospital birth settings. This episode is grounded, evidence-based, and empowering, offering expectant parents tools, language, and understanding so they can participate confidently in their care rather than feeling blindsided by it.

A year later, they launched their farm on seven conserved acres behind the Amagansett Farmers Market, drawn to the land's unique coastal terroir, which inspired the name Amber Waves. In the early days, they personally connected with every visitor, cultivating a community that found comfort, inspiration, and empowerment through the farm. By 2016, with the support of dedicated locals and visionary women before them, Amanda and Katie secured ownership of the farmland and reunited it with the historic farmstand. Today, Amber Waves spans over 30 acres, operates a vibrant market and kitchen, and stands as a nationally recognized educational farm serving hundreds of families and visitors each year. Links:

Fresh off Harley-Davidson's Chapter 2 launch, the 2026 Harley-Davidson lineup brings far more substance than the polished reveal video suggests. The biggest win is clarity: all Grand American Touring models now share the redesigned fairings, eliminating past confusion between Limited and non-Limited bikes and simplifying aftermarket compatibility. Officially revealed models include updated Street Glide and Road Glide Limiteds, multiple CVO touring variants, new trikes, and the Pan America 1250 Limited—giving consumers a clearer, more cohesive range to shop from. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE The Street Glide Limited emerges as a true factory-built Ultra-style tourer, complete with a redesigned batwing fairing, LED lower fairing lights, a new Grand Tour Pack with integrated lighting, taller windshield, and the Milwaukee-Eight 117 VVT motor. The Road Glide Limited mirrors this formula with shark-nose styling. Harley also deserves credit for finally treating chrome and black trim equally, offering the same color choices regardless of finish. In the CVO lineup, engines remain familiar (117 VVT for Limiteds, 121 VVT for CVOs), but styling steps up—especially with the long-awaited CVO Street Glide ST, a batwing performance bagger packed with race-inspired components and serious hardware. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! Beyond touring, Harley expanded its reach with the Pan America 1250 Limited, aimed squarely at long-distance adventure riders, and significantly improved trikes with dramatically increased rear suspension travel for better ride quality. Missing, however, are the Road King, Bronx, and any true entry-level model, while the Street Glide Ultra appears to be a one-year-only bike—creating opportunities for deals on remaining inventory. Add in the limited-run Liberty Edition models celebrating America's 250th anniversary, and the 2026 lineup stands as one of Harley-Davidson's strongest, most focused releases in years, balancing refinement, performance, and clearer choices for buyers.

This episode of The Green Insider featured an interview with Rod Baltzer, President and CEO of Deep Isolation, who discussed the company’s innovative approach to nuclear waste disposal using horizontal drilling techniques. Rod explained Deep Isolation’s solution for spent nuclear fuel disposal and their global consultancy work in nuclear decommissioning and waste management, highlighting projects in various countries and their collaboration with national radioactive waste management organizations Deep Isolation's Solution Proposes a less expensive, faster alternative using small, modular, and transportable disposal systems. Utilizes directional drilling to bury canisters with spent fuel up to 2 miles underground. Each borehole can be drilled in under 2 months, holds about 200 canisters, and 20 boreholes can accommodate 60 years of fuel from a large reactor. Global Consultancy Projects Deep Isolation consults internationally, including with the UK Decommissioning Authority, Estonia, Croatia, Slovenia, and Bulgaria. Recent work includes a U.S. grant to help Bulgaria align its regulations with International Atomic Energy Agency standards. Nuclear Waste Management Focus Consultancy covers regulatory gap analysis, geology, waste form safety, and economics. Collaborate's with national waste management organizations and advanced reactor companies like Kairos and Curio. Nuclear Energy's Role in Sustainability Nuclear energy is seen as essential for meeting future energy demands, especially for AI and data centers. Acceptance of nuclear energy depends on effective waste disposal solutions and public perception. European regulations penalize new nuclear projects without operational disposal facilities by 2050. Universal Canister System Deep Isolation's universal canister allows storage, transport, and disposal without repackaging, reducing costs and worker risk. Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) SMRs offer market expansion potential due to their transportability and efficient construction. Deep Isolation can design disposal solutions for various SMR waste types, supporting both co-located and centralized repositories. The discussion concluded with insights on the future of nuclear energy, including its role in meeting growing energy demands and the importance of developing disposal solutions to increase its acceptance, with plans for a full-scale demonstration project in 2026.

Margo is joined by Daisy Fancourt—Professor of Psychobiology & Epidemiology at UCL and a globally recognized leader in understanding how creativity and social connection influence our health. From her early days designing arts programs inside hospitals to directing major WHO initiatives and publishing over 250 papers, Daisy has spent her career documenting the profound, measurable impact of creative engagement on stress, aging, recovery, cognition, and community wellbeing.

Up until the 1980s, pension plans were a common approach for employers to help employees with retirement. Unfortunately, the investment risks became a bigger burden to carry than many businesses felt they could afford. Ted Benna, a benefits consultant, however, shrewdly discovered a 1978 tax provision that could replace the investment risk of these pension ...

In this podcast episode, I'm joined by Lurch and we discuss the Kraus EZ Shift and the Stealthport Motorcycle Battery and Accessory Port for Harley-Davidson. These two seemingly small and simple items result in big benefits when installed on your Harley-Davidson motorcycle. So, strap in and tune in as we talk about how these two items improved our riding enjoyment. We don't just sell items in our store. We test and review them. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! The Kraus EZ‑Shift of M8 and Twin Cam motors is a popular aftermarket shift assist for Harley-Davidson motorcycles designed to improve the feel and ease of gear changes. It works by altering the shift linkage's leverage ratio so that finding neutral — especially from a stop — becomes much easier and more positive, which can reduce clutch wear by allowing riders to drop into neutral quickly and release the clutch instead of dragging it at lights. Made in the USA from high-quality billet aluminum, the device bolts on in just a few minutes and is compatible with both stock and many aftermarket shift levers. Riders report smoother, more confident shifts across all gears, with up to about 20% less effort required compared to stock linkage feel.

What's REALLY Going On Behind the Scenes… The Stealthport Motorcycle Battery Charging & Accessory Port and related Stealthport adapters are aftermarket solutions for Harley-Davidson riders who want a clean, factory-style connection point for charging their bike's battery or powering accessories without dealing with the standard dangling SAE pigtail. Instead of fumbling with the loose cable under the bike, a Stealthport install mounts a low-profile port in a convenient location on the frame or bodywork, using existing threaded holes on many Softail, Touring, and other Harley models. Once installed, the port connects to your bike's OEM battery tender lead, giving you a weather-protected, easily accessible charging point that can also be used for heated gear or other 12 V accessories — all while keeping the look tidy and integrated. Installation is typically straightforward and reversible, and multiple mounting options let you choose how hidden or accessible you want the port to be. Sponsor-Ciro 3D CLICK HERE!

Dean Akey, Executive Vice President/Partner from Clone Capital highlights a market transformation in energy demand, driven by rapid load growth from AI and data centers, which have different power needs compared to traditional industries. On episode 311 of The Green Insider, Dean covers: AI facilities require flexible power solutions due to fluctuating demands, similar to steel mills, while data centers have more stable energy needs. Innovative approaches, such as using garbage data to maintain high processing levels during low-demand periods, are being explored to manage AI facility energy needs. Data centers (e.g., for stock trading) need high-speed processing and real-time responses, whereas AI projects (e.g., in pharmaceuticals) process complex computations but do not require real-time results. Strategic location of data centers, and AI projects can enable energy arbitrage; Bitcoin miners are an example of mobile operations that relocate to areas with lower energy costs. Connecting power projects to the transmission grid is increasingly expensive and not always necessary, especially for projects serving local loads; developers should carefully weigh the pros and cons of grid connection. The energy interconnection process is lengthy and costly, which can deter undercapitalized developers. An “all-of-the-above” approach to energy generation is recommended, combining traditional gas plants with renewables (wind, solar) and storage to meet growing power demand, especially in the context of the AI race against China. Creativity and innovation are emerging in the industry, including smaller-scale and mobile generation solutions, with collaboration across sectors being crucial for energy security and competitiveness To be an Insider Please subscribe to The Green Insider powered by ERENEWABLE wherever you get your podcast from and remember to leave us a five-star rating.
