Podcasts about iterations

The Secret Is in the Iterations Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Many founders try to tell everything to the investor in the first pitch. This is not possible as there's no way to convey everything about the startup in one go. It's best to break the information down into smaller pieces and drip it out over time. The multiple interactions help build the relationship. While each step seems small, they are accretive. One step builds on the other. Take your information and pull out the most enticing elements, such as a recent sales win, a new hire, or a product development piece. Use these tidbits in your pitch to attract investors. Take the remaining information and break it down into updates and follow-up content pieces. Schedule out the follow-up pieces so you present a consistent flow of information to the investor. The small but consistent updates will build and reinforce your growth story to the investor over time.  It takes multiple touches to close an investor. Set up those content pieces and schedule them over the course of the campaign.   Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _________________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at:   Check out our other podcasts here:   For Investors check out:   For Startups check out:   For eGuides check out:   For upcoming Events, check out    For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group    Please , share, and leave a review.

Introduction Welcome to RetroLogic! I'm Dan Caporello here with Sam Wagers, John Cummis and Shannon Eno   But RetroLogic isn't just a podcast. It's a community of retro gamers! - We've got an active, friendly, and free discord. - Giveaways - Contests - AND Dive into our family of Retro podcasts! Like RetroGroove, a music history podcast, and On Topic Retro, a podcast dedicated to 1 video game per episode hosted by our very own John Cummins. - you can find everything at our website retrologic.games Tell me one thing that happened this week! The Price Is Retro If this is your first time playing Price Is Retro, here's how we play. I'm going to list off 4 or 5 games and everyone has to guess how much the lot is worth in total. Whoever is closest to the actual value wins that round! Everyone has a list and everyone guesses on each other's list. At the end, the player that won the most rounds wins the episode! But watch out for the robot Deus Guess Machina! He averages all of our guesses together for his own guess Shan's list Sam's list John's list Dan's list   Trivia Card   Show Topic Console Iterations Community Couch   @everyone it's time to dust off the old community couch! What are your opinions on console iterations? Do you prefer the model of console iteration that we usually get from Nintendo (sometging new and different) or prefer the PS/Xbox (Same but more powerful) route. Also do you like mid generation iterations like pro models or do you usually skip those. Maybe you wait for the pro model lol. Let's us know and we will discuss this on the next show!   5 Ri Sol-ju — 1/24/2025 10:11 AM I prefer mind gen iterations like PS Xbox but I generally get the iterations if there is an improvement on battery or screen. The only one I didn't get was the Steam Deck OLED because it was just a sunk cost of 900 after selling the original, I guess cost also factors in. I usually get everything at launch if available   @Datfast (John) @everyone it's time to dust off the old community couch!   What are your opinions on console iterations?   Do you prefer the model of console iteration that we usually get from Nintendo (sometging new and different)  or prefer the PS/Xbox (Same but more powerful) route.   Also do you like mid generation iterations like pro models or do you usually skip those.   Maybe you wait for the pro model lol.   Let's us know and we will discuss this on the next show! Solo — 1/24/2025 10:16 AM Considering how hugely successful the Switch was I am hearing people say Nintendo played it safe and smart with this new console. I don't see that as a bad thing at all as I feel if it is not broke don't try to fix it. The Switch is being modeled by other companies and to have an entry that is more powerful will be great. Would rather have something that brings more games to play better and more 3rd party releases than the next whimsical features they May or may not stick. Can't help but think back to all the comments of the MK1 pics of people saying “but Nintendo fans say graphics don't matter.” Drex1981 — 1/24/2025 10:17 AM The only iteration I was interested in was the DS Lite. That was a massive step up over the regular DS. I could care less about the PS4 pro or PS5 pro. My OG switch is serving me just fine.   @Datfast (John) @everyone it's time to dust off the old community couch!   What are your opinions on console iterations?   Do you prefer the model of console iteration that we usually get from Nintendo (sometging new and different)  or prefer the PS/Xbox (Same but more powerful) route.   Also do you like mid generation iterations like pro models or do you usually skip those.   Maybe you wait for the pro model lol.   Let's us know and we will discuss this on the next show! Your Wallet's Defense Attorney — 1/24/2025 3:19 PM I kinda just don't really take notice of them DoubleD — 1/24/2025 3:19 PM I definitely get more excited about Nintendo console iterations, but will also always get the next PlayStation console as well, just because that's where the new games are going to be. I will say that I actually delayed my purchase of the PS5 for a while, because initially there weren't many games that I was interested in that weren't also available on the PS4. Regarding mid gen iterations, it's all about the bang for the buck. When the PS4 Pro came out, I was upgrading my TV to a 4K one, so I was motivated to upgrade to the Pro as well to get the most out of the TV, and was very happy with the decision. I also got a Switch lite during the pandemic because my wife was hogging my Switch with Animal Crossing, but now it's just collecting dust. I never got an OLED Switch, because I primarily play it docked.   @Datfast (John) @everyone it's time to dust off the old community couch!   What are your opinions on console iterations?   Do you prefer the model of console iteration that we usually get from Nintendo (sometging new and different)  or prefer the PS/Xbox (Same but more powerful) route.   Also do you like mid generation iterations like pro models or do you usually skip those.   Maybe you wait for the pro model lol.   Let's us know and we will discuss this on the next show!

I've held off on posting this Iteration because I just didn't feel like it was that important in light of what's happening in California. But after some reflection, I actually think that it is important, because art and making are still important. Hope is important. Helping people to feel just a little less alone and trying to connect with them wherever that may be is important and it's what I try to do with these Iterations. I write about my thoughts and experiences in the hope that it may help you navigate your own.LINKSAmerican Red CrossThe Los Angeles Regional Food BankThe Animal Wellness FoundationThe California Fire FoundationDark MatterLabyrinthBlake CrouchApple TV+Texas Shakespeare FestivalAlabama Shakespeare FestivalCONNECT WITH MEWebsite: https://jefferysaddoris.com  Instagram: @jefferysaddorisEmail: talkback@jefferysaddoris.comSUBSCRIBESubscribe to Almost Everything with Jeffery Saddoris in your favorite podcast app. You can also subscribe to my newsletter on Substack.

The Venus Project was started in the 1980s by Jacques Fresco and Roxanne Meadows with the aim of showing that it was possible to lead a more human centered existence… as long as you built outside of the capitalist market system. Over the decades, the fortunes of the project have fluctuated - from an initial burst of enthusiasm and action (Meadows and Fresco built almost all the structures on the property by hand themselves) to the grinding reality of what it means to grow a stable and vibrant community, to the immense surge of popularity just as Fresco's life came to an end. Project members Roxanne Meadows and Nate Dwindiddie come by the show with previous guest Simon Michaux to talk about the failures and successes of the project, and what it might look like when its reborn as the framework for Michaux's Prometheus Project.

Thayer's personal values of health and environmental responsibility have been the driving force behind Carve Designs' commitment to creating sustainable products. From the outset, Thayer and her team set out to build a brand that reflected their values, including choosing to eat organic food and prioritize health. This ethos naturally extended to the company's approach to clothing production. The company's journey towards sustainability began with small steps, such as opting for organic cotton t-shirts. Over time, Carve Designs expanded its sustainability efforts, aiming to make at least 90% of their collection entirely sustainable. This dedication to sustainability led to the development of swimwear made from recycled plastic bottles, a significant step towards reducing environmental impact. Additionally, Carve Designs has been exploring innovative ways to recycle swimwear, such as transforming used garments into turf pellets for fields, further demonstrating their commitment to environmental responsibility. Thayer's vision for Carve Designs goes beyond just creating sustainable products; it encompasses a holistic approach to sustainability. The company has been proactive in addressing packaging concerns, experimenting with compostable and recycled packaging to minimize waste. By constantly seeking ways to improve and innovate, Carve Designs exemplifies a forward-thinking approach to sustainable fashion. Overall, Carve Designs' focus on sustainability aligns seamlessly with Thayer's personal values of health and environmental responsibility. The company's dedication to creating eco-friendly swimwear and clothing not only reflects their commitment to the environment but also resonates with a growing consumer demand for sustainable fashion options. Through their innovative practices and continuous efforts to reduce their environmental footprint, Carve Designs sets a positive example for the fashion industry and inspires others to prioritize sustainability in their business practices. In the podcast episode, Carve Designs is highlighted for its innovative project to recycle swimwear made from plastic bottles into turf pellets. This initiative aims to reduce waste and promote circular fashion within the industry. By transforming used swimwear into turf pellets, Carve Designs is taking a proactive step towards sustainability and environmental conservation. This process not only helps repurpose materials that would otherwise end up in landfills but also contributes to the creation of a more sustainable fashion cycle. The company's commitment to finding creative solutions for recycling swimwear showcases their dedication to minimizing their environmental impact and embracing a circular economy model. This forward-thinking approach aligns with the growing trend in the fashion industry towards more sustainable practices and highlights Carve Designs' leadership in promoting eco-friendly initiatives. Thayer Sylvester, the CEO of Carve Designs, not only focuses on creating sustainable swimwear and clothing but also emphasizes the importance of protecting the ocean by reducing litter on beaches and avoiding harmful chemicals in sunscreens. During the podcast episode, Thayer mentioned that she regularly picks up litter on the beach while walking her dog, highlighting the need for local communities to participate in beach cleanups. This hands-on approach to reducing litter directly contributes to keeping the ocean clean and safe for marine life. Additionally, Thayer discussed the detrimental effects of certain chemicals found in sunscreens on coral reefs. She highlighted the importance of using reef-safe, mineral-based sunscreens to protect both human health and the marine environment. Thayer's advocacy for using environmentally friendly sunscreens aligns with the growing awareness of the harmful impacts of chemical sunscreens on coral reefs, as seen in places like Hawaii where certain chemicals have been banned to protect the reefs. By promoting beach cleanups and advocating for the use of reef-safe sunscreens, Thayer Sylvester demonstrates a holistic approach to ocean protection through both direct action and consumer choices. Her commitment to sustainability extends beyond just the products her company creates, showing a genuine dedication to preserving the health and beauty of the ocean ecosystem.

As we get into this Iteration, I'd like to take a minute to let you know about some changes that I'm working on that will be rolling out in the coming weeks and months. Iterations will still be weekly (mostly), but I'm going to mix up the types of posts I'll be including and treat it more like an old-school blog. For example, you may have noticed that the Blips have been getting more substantial in terms of the research I do and the number of links I include. They started out as a just few links to things that I saw or found interesting during the previous week and have been evolving into something more comprehensive and hopefully more interesting and inspiring for you. Moving forward, they'll still be part of their own section on Substack, but I'm going to lose the word “Blip” and the number in the naming convention of the titles to alleviate any potential confusion that comes with having Blip number 47 alongside Iteration number 124. I'm also going to be adding reviews into the mix—and that could mean books, movies, music, or the tools I use (like cameras or my favorite pencils)—so file numbering will be even more unnecessary. As you might expect, they'll also typically include some sort of backstory and lots of links for you to explore. The more “existential” essays (like last week's Learn to Love the Process) will continue, but won't be quite as frequent.CONNECT WITH MEWebsite: https://jefferysaddoris.com  Twitter: @jefferysaddoris  Instagram: @jefferysaddorisSUBSCRIBESubscribe to Jeffery Saddoris: Almost Everything in your favorite podcast app to get more conversations like this.

They say that one of the best ways to solve a problem—at least a creative one—is actually not to think abut it. After all, how many times have you been doing something like taking a shower or going for a long walk and you find yourself having one of those eureka moments where suddenly the solution to a problem you've been wrestling with forever seems so clear? It happens to me a lot and it's one of the reasons that taking walks in the forest behind our house has become a daily ritual. Trying to be present in something other than active problem solving allows our brains to continue working in the background without us trying to consciously force a solution. The act of stepping away from a problem is called the “incubation period” and it's been studied for decades. In his book The Art of Thought, Graham Wallas proposed that the creative process is made up of four stages: Preparation (the acquisition of knowledge to some task), Incubation (the background process that occurs when conscious attention is diverted away from the task), Illumination (the moment the creative idea flashes into sight or being), and Verification (when the creative idea is subjected to evaluation)." While there have been dozens of studies documenting and validating the importance and effectiveness of the incubation period, last week I experienced another example of it firsthand.CONNECT WITH MEWebsite: https://jefferysaddoris.com  Twitter: @jefferysaddoris  Instagram: @jefferysaddorisSUBSCRIBESubscribe to Jeffery Saddoris: Almost Everything in your favorite podcast app to get more conversations like this.

As I was working through the recent redesign of my website—which you can read about or listen to in the last Iteration—I started to look at some of the other software I was using to see whether what I was using still made sense for the projects I'll be doing in the coming year. I think it's sometimes easy to get into a routine of using tools that are “good enough” that we just don't look for potentially better options. I know that's been true for me. About eight years ago, I ditched Photoshop completely and started using the Affinity suite of Photo, Designer, and Publisher, which by and large have been great. There are a few features I miss, but nothing that's really kept me from doing the work that I needed to do.

Lately, I've been thinking a lot about inertia and motion and how it applies to my creative practice. We know that Newton's First Law of Motion says that an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless some sort of external force acts against it. Conversely, an object at rest will tend to stay at rest. But I would argue that the Fist Law also applies to intangibles like thoughts and ideas. For example, this week has flown by. Actually, the past couple of weeks have and I think it's because I've been working through so many ideas and potential projects—and I've been working on them differently than I have in the past, which I think is what's making all the difference. And to be clear, when I say “working,” sometimes that means just letting an idea go until it needs to be addressed. For some things that means now, but for others, that may mean next year. CONNECT WITH MEWebsite: https://jefferysaddoris.com  Twitter: @jefferysaddoris  Instagram: @jefferysaddorisSUBSCRIBESubscribe to Jeffery Saddoris: Almost Everything in your favorite podcast app to get more conversations like this.

Next month is the tenth anniversary of my dad's death, so naturally I've been thinking about him a lot. Last year, I completely forgot about it, which I tried to tell myself was actually healthy, but I just ended up feeling guilty about forgetting. If you've been following me for a while, or you're an OTP listener, you know that my relationship with my dad was often difficult, to say the least. But as I've been thinking about him lately and how I've talked about our relationship in the past, I feel like maybe I've been a little incomplete in how I've portrayed him. I loved my dad, no matter how close or how far we were in the moment, and the truth is that he's just as responsible for my creativity and to an extent my curiosity as my mom and my stepmother were.CONNECT WITH MEWebsite: https://jefferysaddoris.com  Twitter: @jefferysaddoris  Instagram: @jefferysaddorisSUBSCRIBESubscribe to Jeffery Saddoris: Almost Everything in your favorite podcast app to get more conversations like this.

I'm still not quite 100% myself, but I wanted to share a quick update. Yesterday was day 12 since testing positive for COVID, and it was the first day that I finally tested negative. Both Adrianne and I had very mild cases, especially compared to some of our friends and family members who really had a it bad. I had a temperature of 100.8 for one day and, other than feeling fatigued and brain fogged for the past week or so, that was pretty much it. Adrianne had it a little worse than me, but not much. The most frustrating part was continuing to test positive for days after the symptoms had subsided. And according to the latest from the CDC, you can continue to test positive for 90 days.CONNECT WITH MEWebsite: https://jefferysaddoris.com  Twitter: @jefferysaddoris  Instagram: @jefferysaddorisSUBSCRIBESubscribe to Jeffery Saddoris: Almost Everything in your favorite podcast app to get more conversations like this.

The journey of growing our businesses is anything but a straight line. We evolve, change our minds, and things shift in our worlds. We'll go through stages of figuring things out, reworking things and pivoting and that's totally okay! That journey builds up a toolkit that makes our communities stronger.   How do we figure out if we're in the right niche and talking to the right people? How do we stop feeling bad about pivoting and moving into new ideas?   In this episode, returning guest and founder of Motherhood Simplified, Krista Lockwood returns to give us a peek into her evolution and share why it's okay for our ideas to change.   A teacher doesn't share with you as they are learning. The teacher takes the best lessons from everything they've learned -Dana Malstaff    3 Things You'll Learn in This Episode   -Creating a results framework How can we reverse engineer what we're good at so we can succinctly explain why it works?    -It's hard to build a community on celebration  Why is it so powerful to create a space where people can share their struggles without judgment?    -Sharing from our wounds vs. our scars  How do we know if it's too early to start teaching something even if we're passionate about it?   Guest Bio   Krista Lockwood is the Founder of Motherhood Simplified, where she teaches decluttering for moms who don't want to be full blown minimalists. In 2013, she and her husband moved from Alaska to Florida with only one suitcase each. While she doesn't believe you need to go that extreme, she has been able to master the balance of having enough, but not too much.

I know I'm a little late on this Iteration and I apologize for that. As you can hear, my voice doesn't sound the way it normally does and maybe that's a good thing. Maybe it sounds better.In the Iteration I was going to do, I was going to talk about finding that thing you live for, that thing that you love, that thing that lights you up. But I have to postpone it because I'm just having a hell of a time stringing two thoughts together. Even going through this right now, I'm live without a net, as it were. I don't have a script or any outline like I normally would have when I record one of these. For this one, all I have is COVID and apparently have had it since sometime over the weekend—and let me tell you, it is not fun. Don't listen to all of those stories telling you how great it is and how all the cool kids are getting it. It's a lie. I've been vaxxed and vaxxed again boosted and, you know, while all of that probably means that it's much less severe and means that the odds of me needing to go the hospital are much less, it still sucks.CONNECT WITH MEWebsite: https://jefferysaddoris.com  Twitter: @jefferysaddoris  Instagram: @jefferysaddorisSUBSCRIBESubscribe to Jeffery Saddoris: Almost Everything in your favorite podcast app to get more conversations like this.
