The 16:9 PODCAST IS SPONSORED BY SCREENFEED – DIGITAL SIGNAGE CONTENT Appspace has now been active in this industry for 20 years, and through much of that time the software company was one of the larger players in a crowd of companies all chasing the general business opportunity of digital signage. But in the last few years the company has pivoted, in a big way, to the well-defined vertical of workplace. The company now describes itself as a workplace experience platform for both physical and digital workplaces. Digital signage is still a main component of what Appspace does, but just one of several in a unified platform. I caught up with Thomas Philippart de Foy, who has been with Appspace for a decade and is now the EVP of Product Innovation. In our chat, we get into what took Appspace down the workplace path, and then how it all works within an organization. The company has a PILE of users and says its software is in place at roughly 200 of the companies listed in the Fortune 500. But it also offers free accounts to smaller users, drafting off the well-used concept of freemium software - allowing people to try before they buy. If you are looking at workplace - either as a vendor or as an HR, IT or ops person, listen and learn.

You've been with Appspace for a very long time, right?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: Just celebrating 10 years in September!  Oh, okay, and we first met a number of years ago in Dubai, but then you moved to Costa Rica, which was a bit of a pivot, but now you're in Belgium for a holiday, right? Thomas Philippart de Foy: That's correct. I relocated to Costa Rica to get closer to the US time zone while still enjoying tropical weather. You don't get tropical weather in Antwerp or wherever you're in Belgium?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: Rarely, once a year in the summer, there's a good day, and then the rest is rainy.  And you don't like that?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: Once a year, maybe.  So Appspace, that's a company that's been around for a very long time. When I first got to know Appspace, it was very much a general digital signage CMS platform, you know, “What are you doing? We can help you out!” And you were, at that time I believe, working pretty closely with Cisco, but in the last few years you could, you very much seem to have become a company that's all about workplace experience and digital signage is one of your outputs as opposed to being a pure digital signage company.  Is that a fair assessment?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: Absolutely. We're celebrating our 20 years anniversary this month, so such a big milestone, and the firs 15-16 years was really building a cloud-based CMS for digital signage. We had some mission statements. We wanted to be hardware agnostic, OS agnostic. We wanted to be cloud first, and then a few years back, we started expanding our offering and went into the room scheduling worlds, where a lot of other companies were playing, and just added that as a feature. Then just two years ago, Summer 2020, one of our biggest customers on the West Coast came over to us and said, “Hey, we're looking to return to the office after the pandemic. We need help in providing our users with an app that would allow them to reserve workspaces, comply with security policies and so forth.” And we decided to get onto that journey and build a product, and six months later we launched. So January 2021 and 30 days later, we signed one of the biggest tech companies as a customer, and from there it's been quite a ride.  Did the company go towards workplace because it looked like an opportune vertical to be in, or was it what the customers who you touching or asking for and it pulled you that way? Thomas Philippart de Foy: Yeah, in the last 10 years, I spent a lot of time meeting with customers and trying to understand their challenges and see where Appspace could help them. In this scenario, the customer came over and they had a real challenge, which we saw many other companies would have, and there was really no one in the market that had an answer for it two years ago. So we thought that's an opportunity in which we could really put some focus, leverage our existing enterprise grade platform, cloud-first experience and credibility in our large enterprise customer base to just go and expand the use case.  Really, we also see that there is a correlation happening with workplace communication and workplace management. It's not gonna be two different things, it's actually gonna be one, and we thought we could come from our workplace communication expertise and go that direction while probably some more workplace management products would probably start moving towards workplace communication, and there would be a consolidation. You also acquired a company called Beezy, which was all about the workplace as well, right?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: Yeah, when we entered workplace management, we also launched our employee app, and from there, we got a lot of requests from customers to focus on employee communication in the app itself, and we met with Beezy, they had a very similar company culture, they had a good size and they had a product which was very modern, very forward looking and built on Microsoft SharePoint, and we thought that would nicely align with our product platform and our vision, so that's been a very fun journey, onboarding them into the Appspace world for the last few months.  Now is Beezy still a brand, or is it that their IP and their capabilities are rolled into Appspace?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: We're rolling them into Appspace step by step. The brands are consolidating under a single brand. Now, it's the Appspace Modern Internet by Beezy, but we are clearly focusing on aligning all the different teams under a single organization, and also the brand and the product will be one.  We definitely don't wanna run two separate products. We've always had that philosophy that with Appspace, it was one platform and features and not multiple point products so we're gonna continue doing that.  There are digital science CMSs that say that the workplace is one of the verticals that they're in, and then there are companies that just do room booking software, and maybe the displays hardware as well, they blend those together. There are hot desk companies and everything else. I'm thinking, like in a lot of other vertical markets, that the end user really doesn't wanna have to cobble together an overall solution that features all these different components and different companies doing them, they'd rather just have one company doing it all. Is that a fair statement? Thomas Philippart de Foy: Yes, and the pandemic has accelerated the need for platforms versus point products.  Pre-pandemic on the workplace management, you had the IWMS to manage all your assets, you had room booking solutions for the room scaling panels, you had visitor management solutions to bring visitors into the office. There were all point products, and then on the workplace comm, you had digital signage that was a point product, you had kiosks often very close to digital signage, and then you had email publishing, you had intranet. All of those were point products as well. I think what we're seeing now is they're unifying on both sides. So you're starting to see vendors who offer room booking, hot desking, visitor management, and then on the other side, you've got companies who are starting to consolidate and acquire, and they're doing digital signage, employee app, intranet, email publishing, and what we're doing is both at the same time, which is probably our biggest unique differentiator. We believe, if you have an employee app, it's not only about employee communication or workplace management, it's the two combined. So a single app on users' devices versus multiple apps. And I assume that resonates well with the business communicators and the IT people within a company, because they don't wanna have to deal with all these different logins and back in and out stuff?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: I guess there's two sides to it. There's certainly the administrative side to it, but there's also the user adoption. A big part of the return to the office is implementing new tools for employees to reserve access into a building, reserve a meeting room or a desk, and comply with formalities, that's for sure. But the other side of it is how do you communicate with those employees? How do you let them know what are the new rules in place? What are the new policies? How do you communicate what are the new benefits in the office, the new technology available?  So being able to communicate in the same app that you're actually gonna reserve your workspace, invite your visitors, makes a lot of sense, and I think that's what HR and Corp comms are really liking with our story is that one app will do it all and it will of course integrate with all their backend systems and so forth. So if I am a business communicator at a large corporation and I want to address these issues, what can you do for them and how does it work?  Are they buying an enterprise license? Is it cloud based or are they installing something on prem, and how does it all come together? Thomas Philippart de Foy: Yeah, it's a great question and it's a big one and there's two sides to it. Once again on one side, you've got the admin, the console is fully cloud based, you don't need to install any software on your desktop, and you can start by just going on Appspace.com, create a free account and you get a full featured Appspace environment. We don't monetize features, we monetize users and devices. So even with a free account, you'll have all the features of Appspace, but you'll be limited in the number of users that can log into the app and the number of devices that you can register back. So it's the whole idea of Freemium?  I just wanted to ask because “free” is intriguing to me. You don't see that very much in digital science anymore, unless it's entry level super limited in what it does and so on, but you're doing free with the idea of onboarding people, getting them used to the system and them realizing, I like this and I'm willing to pay for it?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: Yeah, so what we think is that in order to be successful with Freemium, you need to have a platform that's really self-service, and I think that's what we focused a lot over the last 10 years is simplifying the product to the point where someone who just goes on our website, creates a free account, in 30 seconds is in the Appspace account, able to register a device, create some awesome content, publish it to the device and it's working, and we were able to do that for digital signage, but then we were able to expand that into all the digital communication channels and also for workplace management.  So we maintained Freemium when a lot of other companies started thinking, “That doesn't work for us, let's go back to a trial account with someone hand holding you.” We don't need that with Appspace, you can get started, and so we have a huge amount of customers that create free accounts every month, and then when they're ready to expend, they just need to click on the link and they get in contact with a Sales rep and they can just either swipe their credit card or work through one of our partners to buy a subscription. Is that a huge amount of free signups every month? Are there no maintenance until they actually contact a Sales rep and say, “I'm interested in paying for this”?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: That's correct. They're touchless most of the time.  We have very large organizations that will have a lot of different free accounts, different departments, different team members who will create free accounts and get started, and then when they're ready to move and they want to do the security assessment and they want to talk contract and large scale deployments, they reach out to us.  So I guess your sales people might look at big tech company, X and see that they have five different free accounts in different departments, and the salesperson could go to them and say, “Guys, you're using a lot of this now, do you wanna harmonize it?”  Thomas Philippart de Foy: Yeah. Our sales team, for sure, we also have a big marketing organization now. The product is also supported, so when you log into Appspace, you will have certain steps to follow to register a device, create content. It's the system that is holding your hand, not users. And then along the way, you will have opportunities to get help, to talk to people. You can go to the knowledge center. Our Sales reps are already really there to help customers get to the next level, which makes it nice because when our Account Executives talk to customers, they already have a good understanding of what the customer has been doing with Appspace and they can really jump right into it.  What happens when you have potential new customers who already have some sort of a room booking system and scheduling system, and they like them.  Do you have APIs where you can just continue to work with them or do they have to abandon that and go entirely with Appspace? Thomas Philippart de Foy: No, so we have open APIs, fully documented and online for every feature of our product. So we're happy to integrate with existing solutions that the customer may have still under contract or they're happy with it. What we're seeing though is very quickly customers consolidate because they see an opportunity for cost savings, for ease of management. And then, you know the story of a unified platform, if you have an integration with an emergency system or your building management system and the fire alarm goes on, you can broadcast that message to a digital sign, to a visitor management kiosk, to a room scheduling panel inside the room on the video device, and that can be done really easily when you're using a platform. It's much harder to achieve when you're using point products, because you need to integrate each point product with a security system and many don't even support that concept of broadcast.  So what we're seeing is when customers onboard Appspace for one use case, they very quickly start seeing the opportunity to save money, ease operations, and then benefit from the platform features and capabilities.  Are you able to provide analytics?  I've heard about this in the past where you start to get a sense of how a workplace is being used and where people are dwelling and how often rooms actually get booked and how many people are in the rooms, and it helps to size and maybe rethink some of the meeting spaces that a company may have. Thomas Philippart de Foy: Yeah, so analytics and reporting is huge, and it's actually for the two sides of the product: for the workplace communication, understanding how users are interacting with content, whether it's on the app, on their phone, on their desktop, whether it's on a kiosk.  We have this concept of a corporate Netflix. We've had that for yours where users can actually browse content on demand, very much like you browse your video content on Netflix. You do that with the remote control, with a touch panel, whatever the interaction you want to use. We track all of that, and that gives a lot of analytics on how content is being consumed, the success of a campaign and so forth. And then on the workplace management, we have the analytics of what are the most active users, what type of workspace they book? How long do they sit at a desk? How long do they use a meeting room? If the meeting room for 10 people was booked, but used by two people, we have that data, so you can size your resources accordingly based on demand.  And then you can visualize everything inside Appspace, but we also created integrations into Tableau, into Power BI. So customers can actually export the data and visualize it in their preferred data visualization tool.  And in a workplace, the Power BI and Tableau stuff is interesting. I'm curious, are workplaces now much more sophisticated to where they see digital signage and visual communications as doing a lot more than congratulating somebody on their birthday or their 20th year with the company or whatever it may be. They're getting into visualizing KPIs in real time and that sort of thing? Thomas Philippart de Foy: Oh, yes, for sure. The number of customers that display building analytics when you enter the building, when you get on the first floor, where you can see the floor plan, you can see the heat maps, you can see the air quality, you can see the average temperature of the neighborhood. That certainly is a very common use case nowadays, providing building insights to users on digital signs is becoming really exciting.  I think what we're seeing is a huge opportunity of combining workplace management and workplace communication is when you now have context to where digital signage can help, and you know that in the retail world, there's been a bunch of vendors who've monitored gender, age, ethnicity in order to manage communication campaign to those audience and measure also. In workplace management, you don't really care about age or gender. But what you do care is which user is sitting where, and when you've got a majority of salespeople sitting in a neighborhood, can you actually change the content to relate to those people? And that's been something that we've done a lot over the last year and a half is creating that context of digital signage experience, where even though I'm going back into an office where it's a hot desking hotel, the content still speaks to me, because the system is aware that I'm gonna be sitting there, and I think that's huge, because in those days you used to know exactly where people were sitting so you were planning your content for the sales team based on where people were sitting. Now, the system will automate that process based on the data they get from their workplace management feature. And they're not using computer vision or things like that? Because when I come in to work at an office, I have to book a specific desk, and that's how you know that I'm there, right?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: Either because you're booking a specific desk or you're sitting at a specific desk, and when you're actually sitting, we are able to identify who you are, and therefore dynamically say what's interesting to you is more sales data or more product marketing data, and therefore we mush multiple channels of content together to provide a perfect playlist that matches the audience.  But how do you know I'm at that desk?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: That's where workplace technology comes, whether it's smart docking stations, whether it's physically connecting into the network and passing the user identity, whether it's those new video devices that we see popping left and right on the desks. It could be when you have a desk puck, which is similar to a room scheduling panel, you arrive and you will scan the QR code with your phone and authenticate and check into a desk and say, this is now my desk. So we have a lot of different tools that allows us to identify the user and therefore to get that data that we need to personalize the workspace environment.  Through the pandemic, particularly in the first months, there was all kinds of discussion about how the workplace was gonna change, because those workplaces were being hollowed out through lockdowns and so on, and there's been all kinds of discussions and debate and everything else, particularly in the last six months or so, is where workplaces have started to repopulate as to whether it really did change all that much, and whether everybody's just working from home or everybody's into a hybrid thing.  You're on the ground, so to speak, you're dealing with companies who are implementing this stuff. What's your sense of what's actually happening?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: I think companies are worried that people are not coming back to the office as quickly as they had hoped they would, and although many companies during the pandemic said that they would not require employees to go back to the office. It's very different two years later, we realize how the workplace culture is important, and having people, if not every day, at least a few days a week, come into the office and meet their teammates and so forth. So we're now seeing a sense of urgency from many customers to find ways to convince people to go back to the office and that comes with offering a new experience, offering new services.  The new experience is making sure that regardless of where I sit in the building, I have the building talking to me, the building is aware that I'm there and being able to personalize that experience, and I think that's where digital signage is playing such a critical role. But then in the employee app, when I'm booking a room or when I'm booking a desk, I may need different types of services, maybe I need different technology, or maybe I want catering services. I should be able to do that from the app and reserve this ahead of time, and we're seeing a lot of demand around those new experiences where employees will get more benefits when they come to the office, not only benefits of a better physical workplace, but also benefits in terms of the services that are offered, and that will incentivize them to come back into the office, and then naturally, as people will come back to the office, they will meet their teammates again, and they will see why it's so important to meet in person, and that will create a dynamic, and at some point I think we'll get back to somewhat a normal situation where most people will go to the office more regularly. Did the pandemic accelerate something that, from your perspective, was going to happen anyways and just speed it up out of necessity, or were there a lot of companies that weren't really thinking about changing how their workplaces were experienced?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: That's a great question. I actually think the pandemic gave the opportunity for large organizations to make a cultural change in the workplace that was planned, but maybe seen as a 5-10 years initiative, and they were able to do it in 2 years.  Hot-desking in hotels is an example. We've been talking about hotels and hot-desking for years, but no one was able to implement it. It was such a big cultural change. The pandemic gave the opportunity for companies to take the decision, to reduce real estate and implement hot-desking in hotels, and they had a good reason for that, and for employees, it was like a natural thing that was happening. It would have taken years to get there otherwise. That's why no one was really focusing on the technology for it.  I also think that the pandemic has accelerated the adoption of apps, like Microsoft Teams. Many companies were still using Skype for Business and other tools and they were struggling to unify under a modern app like Microsoft Teams or Slack or WebEx, and this gave them the opportunity to do that, and by doing that, all employees now have one common app on their personal device, whether it's a phone or a desktop, they're able to communicate, chat, exchange files, and we've just launched our embedded app for Teams. So now you have Appspace embedded in Teams, which means users don't need to download a new app to reserve their workspaces or receive team communication. They have all of it inside one app, and I think that's an acceleration that's a result of the pandemic.  We obviously saw how Zoom and Microsoft and WebEx grew from that. That has also helped in the adoption of new technology, like workplace management and employee comms.  Yeah, I was curious about that because if you have all these other workplace tools, the next logical thing to integrate into there would be video conferencing, but that's that's an entirely different business and pretty damn complicated. So the easier path would be to integrate with something like Teams, right? Thomas Philippart de Foy: That's correct. I think Teams offer the framework to embed an app fully into Teams, handle the authentication for the user, and then from there, we have so much insights on what the user needs that we're really able to personalize the experience. The Teams embedded app is a huge win for customers because if you think of a very large service organization with 200,000 desk workers, rolling out a new app for communication and for workplace management is a big challenge. Getting users to download the app or deploying the app to their personal device, enabling user authentication, tracking how users are actually logging in the app. This is no longer a challenge when you are embedded in Teams, because one morning you wake up and on your sidebar, you've got a new button, you click on it and that's where you reserve your workspace, that's where you see your workplace communication, all of it in an app that you were already logging in every morning.  So I'm a CTO at a very large tech company, and if I'm a CTO, the company's going down, but regardless of that, if I'm sitting across from you and I say, “okay, this is interesting, make me comfortable that this is secure.” What do you tell me?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: We obviously work with close to two hundred of the Fortune 500 companies, so we're used to working with very large organizations that have very strict security requirements, and our product (the cloud service) is already approved by IT, by Security and enabled whether it's for digital signage or room booking or visitor for one of the features.  Enabling suddenly to turn on the other features doesn't require any more security assessment because the product has been approved. We also have only one app, whether you are running our app on a system on a chip display, on a kiosk, on an iPad, it's the same app in a different container. And this means that once you have your app approved for one of the use cases, your app is actually approved for all the other use cases. That's again been strengths on our side is trying to keep it single simple platform that allows you to really very quickly scale this across your organization. One thing that's come up a lot in the last couple years is digital science companies who addressed some of the ideas of remote work by having, in effect, a network screensaver, something that would push out to home based workers and pop messaging on a screen and all that. Are you doing that sort of thing, and if so, is it widely adopted?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: Yeah, it's a little bit what we started doing five years ago inside meeting rooms on video devices. When the video device is not used for video conferencing, pop up a screensaver and its Appspace, it's running natively on the client and it will display all the important communication. In the case of a meeting room, we're targeting a wider audience.  Now, when you run our UWP app on a Windows device, we obviously know who is the owner of that device, so we're able to personalize the content. Now, I see this as an interesting use case for screensavers. Although I've never seen someone sitting in front of his laptop watching a screensaver as they do a digital sign, drinking a coffee, but I do like the experience of: you're running the Appspace app on the desktop, it's in screensaver mode. When you plug in your laptop in the office or at home, it pops up the experience where as a user, you can say, “Hey, I'm working from home” or “I'm in the office”, and that then trickles into a whole series of events that makes your colleagues, your teammates aware of where you are working from today, are you in the office and so forth.  So screensaver for just pure content playlist, that's really easy to achieve, but I don't know that this is a huge benefit and a huge win, but coupling that with workplace management can be really interesting. Yeah, I do like the idea of being able to instant message somebody in a way, other than an email, but you're right. If I was working for a large company and I was sitting at home and there was something steadily popping up on the screen telling me about Millie's birthday or Bob's retirement or whatever, I'd be looking very hard to figure out some way to disable it.  Thomas Philippart de Foy: One thing we did though, is we worked with a big law firm in Canada, and the CIO managed to convince the partners to move from a physically assigned office to a hot office, if you will. Very challenging, because lawyers and partners are very conventional. They like their workspace environment. They want their corner office. And what the CIO was able to convince is there would be new sacrifice in the personal experience and to do that, they put in every office, a digital sign, 55 inch display coupled with video or not, depending on the office profile. Outside the office, there is an office scheduling panel.  The partner from home is able to reserve on their Appspace app, “Hey, I need an office from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM and these are the amenities I need.” They reserve that workspace, and when they come into the office, they actually check on the panel outside or on their phone and the digital sign instantly switches to their personal channel. They have potentially their practice news, maybe their preferred sports news, and also their family pictures that they want, and they've just personalized that office with content for the partners and that made them really excited because now they had a big 55 inch display showing their practice news or their family pictures instead of those little frames on the desk that would take the dust. I think when technology really increases the user experience and doesn't sacrifice anything, I think this works really well as a home office as well. If you have an extra display and you can use that real estate, that makes sense, but let's not be mistaken, people care about themselves primarily, they want information that's relevant to them. If I'm at home, I don't know that I want this birthday of a colleague, but I wouldn't mind having pictures of a year ago from my family and kids that I celebrated, maybe that's more useful for me.  We haven't talked about back of house and all the discussions around being workplace, as it relates to an office, are you doing work in production areas and industrial areas and so on? Thomas Philippart de Foy: Yeah. So if you remember, we acquired a company called The Marlin Company a couple of years ago, and their main focus was industrial. A very large amount of customers in that space, and we've been working a lot with those customers in transitioning from digital signage, which was a normal evolution of printed posters to digital content and focus a lot around safety and workplace wellbeing and so forth to communicate on personal devices.  Now, frontline workers typically don't have a company email address. So how do they log into the app? So we combine digital signage with the employee app. Digital signage will say, “Hey, there's a new employee app. To access the app, scan this QR code!” User scans the QR code on their phone, enters an employee ID and a phone number and a few seconds later, they get a one time password to create their credentials and they are now logged into the same app as the desk workers with different feature sets, but it's the same app, and now they also have the ability to have employee communication, team communication. They can chat, they can react socially and comment on the content the same way anyone else.  This is breaking the barrier between the desk workers and the frontline workers where really the frontline workers who didn't have a lot of the technology stack because they didn't have a company email address, where everyone has a smartphone so why wouldn't they have the same benefits? And that one time password, no email login has been huge win for us and for our customers in making sure every employee is aligned and has access to the same capabilities.  Last question, this conversation flew by. What's the installed footprint for Appspace at this point?  Thomas Philippart de Foy: It's always hard to say because we count users. We evaluate that around 10 million users benefit from Appspace around workplace management and workplace communication today. We have around 2,500 customers, two hundred of the Fortune 500, and deployments that will scale on the screen size between 50 screens and 10,000 screens for a single customer. And on the user side, our largest deployment is 175,000 users logging into our app to receive team communication or reserve workspaces. So very large deployments. We like to focus on large customers, but with the Marlin acquisition, we were able to really get into the industrial segment where you have a lot of smaller organizations, maybe not always smaller in terms of number of workers, but maybe smaller in terms of number of physical workspaces. Yeah. All right, this was great. I learned a lot, which is, I guess the point. Thomas Philippart de Foy: That was great. Thank you so much for giving us the time.

⌬ Lecture №11 | Object Relations Theories: An Overview

Social | Psychoanalytic | Work

Hello! This is the first of two podcast lectures that will cover Object Relations Theories. You, my astute listener, will notice that I said object relations theories --plural. I did not say theory --singular. This is important! Your text pointed out. Object relations theory is the term that has come to describe the work of a group of psychodynamic thinkers, both in England and the United States. Although almost always written in the singular, object relations theory is not actually a theory, because it refers to the work of many writers who did not necessarily identify themselves as part of any given school ad who often argued and disagreed quite passionately with one another. A note on the textI'm just going to come right out and say this: I think this chapter is not so good because it tried to include too much content. I don't know about you, but for me, the result is feeling like I just rode a roller coaster of theory, where concepts and ideas went whipping past me faster than I could process them. If that's how you feel, I hope that this podcast lecture will help to add to what you read and contextualize it a bit more. I hope that you'll feel like you've got a better grasp of these ideas at the end. ReviewSome of the theories we have already covered use the term object relations.  Ego psychology uses it as an ego function.  Self-psychology talks about self-objects, which is a version of object relations.  Freud talked about drive objects, which would be the object that our drive desires and will pursue no matter what.  So, object relations should not be a totally new term. However, object relations theories represent an entire body of thought that takes object relations and makes it the primary focus of psychotherapeutic work. Overview of similarity: Before we get into some specific thinkers, I want to talk about some of the main ideas that I think you'll see in all object relations theories. (You might find these ideas expressed differently from one thinker's work to the next, but I think what the ideas represent is more similar than different.)  The term object refers to other people in the world. It is used to differentiate other people from the person who experiences or who is subjected to these other people. For example: In an infant-child relationship, from the infant's perspective, the mother is the object, and the infant is the subject. The infant is subjected to the mother. This is reversed if we look at things from the mother's perspective.  Object relations theories tend to focus on the process of a person coming to experience themselves as separate from other people but connected to them through relationships.  Not all objects nor all relationships are equal. Some objects and some relationships are more important than other objects.  Object relations theory focuses on relationships between people being more crucial to personality development and formation than interpsychic forces, such as drives.  Another way to say this would be that we learn how to be who and what we are through being in relationships with other people. The most important others will be our primary caretakers. For better or worse, this early relationship with our caretakers provides the sort of "baseline" or "blueprint" to which other relationships will be compared. Some thinkers, such as Peter Fonagy, have called these relational blueprints "internal working models" or IWMs for short.  People create and then continually revise an inner map of how they relate to other people and how others relate to them. This could be as simple as "I don't get along well with so and so." This map is created out of memories, fantasy (and phantasy).  My take on Object Relations Theories I think object relations theories get right because relationships are important. Our significant relationships have a massive effect on who we are and what we become over time.  If our relationships are good, if they are not abusive or traumatic, it is far more likely that we will turn out better than if these relationships are abusive and significantly traumaize us. (The Adverse Childhood Experience | ACEs scores matter!) What I'm more skeptical about is this:  The idea that a therapist or analyst (with who you will spend not that much time) can correct for damage done.  I think it is a theory that might overplay being satisfying to patients, and if the practitioner is not careful, underplay the value of optimal frustration.  That's in for this podcast lecture: In the following lecture, I'll discuss specific theorists who produced what we recognize as object relations theories.

What y'all are watching and trading today. A B here, Spencer with me as always Spencer, how are we doing today?We're doing well. We're doing well. Uh, how do we want on the new intro? I saw I saw a new intro. I think it, I think it's, it's part of the way there. I don't think it's all the way there. Do you want to run with the, uh, part of the way there and new intro, the old intro, or just roll? Why don't we roll? No intro today.Let's just rolling. No intro. This is the show it is starting actually already has started. Somy question may be is what has taken a bigger haircut? My head or my portfolio? I don't know. I mean, hopefully your, your portfolio is not taking too big of a haircut. Considering cannabis stocks are all up nicely today. They are, um, using some of my handy-dandy metrics out of the top five trending tickers on social media.So Reddit, Twitter, all the whole investing sphere, two out of the top five trending stocks are in the cannabis space. Spend six. Guess what those two stocks are. Okay. Okay. Without looking two of the top five trending, trending on social media stocks today, um, Uh, are they both stocks? Are any of them? ETS?Are they both? Stocks is one of them kind of be growth? Nope. Damn. Okay. Oh, for one is one of them Grogan. Nope. One for two. Okay. Is one of them, are they both? Are they OTC? No. Uh huh. A Tilray would be the third, the third guest. So Ray's one of them. I see the other one in the chat sundial. Yep. Tiller and sundial are two of the top five trending tickers.Uh, the non-cannabis stocks in that top five are Tesla, Nvidia and Vivian. Okay. So, um, we're, we're going to talk about all this today. Let's talk about everything so that, you know, Tilray and the rest of the cannabis stocks are up on the news that the Republicans are bringing forth a bill to legalize cannabis in the United States.Um, Spencer, do you know anything more about that bill? Uh, another due to present it today, uh, I got to give the, give it to the Republicans. They just basically just hijacked and one of the key issues on the democratic platform and said, well, we'll take that. Thank you very much. Yeah. They're basically saying, Hey, if you guys aren't going to do this, we will and we'll get the credit for it because it's one of those measures that's widely popular throughout the, um, you know, all voters in the United States.So it's, it's. You know, one of those things that'll be a good, easy political win for the Republican so we can get it through which we will see. Um, but either way, I mean, even if they don't, because then if the Democrats step in and have problems with the bill and they can say, oh, Hey look, it's the Democrats holding up, um, you know, legalizing cannabis, which again is something that's, that's very popular.Um, solar up saying, yeah, they, they want to legalize the profits, but we'll see. I mean, I assume there will be, you know, we'll see if, if there can be bipartisan, um, support and work done on the bill. I'm not very bullish on that. We should probably save this discussion for later on, on this show, because we're going to have a cannabis related CEO, uh, on Doug Drysdale was a CEO of Simon to your CYB N related to cannabis, uh, kind of right.Tangentially. It's the same idea of legalizing a drug. It's the same idea, uh, surviving, um, psychedelics are a few years behind cannabis. Um, in everything, right? In terms of regulatory changes, legalization and capital markets a few years on cannabis. So, um, I would be curious to get Doug's thoughts on all this, but I, that being said, speaking of guests, uh, we skipped it on here.Cause our first guest will be on here joining in, in a minute or so. Um, Matt Hamon from IPO warriors is going to recap, uh, last week in IPO lane and preview what is to come this week in IPO's. I'd be curious to hear how Matt played a reveal. And last week I mentioned our Drysdale, uh, from Simon. That'll be at 1245.Love Jake, would you ask Dick from transporter on the show one and Chris Capri from seconds guys trading on the show at one 30. So do as a favor, hit that like button, tell your friends, tell your neighbors, tell your friends, neighbors, dog. And, uh, we can get ourselves off to a good show today. Good start to the week.So like you said, markets in the green, at least last I checked I'm in the green. You're in the green row on the green. What about Dylan? What about Igor? What about bear for one of the chats? I actually took a little thump ski it's in the red right now, but it looks like it's coming back up. I don't know.Yeah, I know it dropped about a quarter for cent out of nowhere at around 11:40 AM Eastern. So that's interesting that 20 minutes ago, I know we'll keep an eye on that. Uh, Q Q kind of same thing, but yeah, Spencer, so big headline over the weekend was of course, Elon Musk on Twitter, uh, you know, took a shot at Bernie Sanders, which some people love.Some people didn't love. Uh, but, but overall, the, the bigger story here is just Tesla's price action in the last week. Um, the stock let's pull up a chart so we can wait, I'll pull my, while you talk, this stock is down more than 15% in the last week. So we're used to seeing Tesla stock, you know, take rips up.Of course, nothing goes straight up. There will be dips along the way, but usually with Tesla, those are followed by bigger rips. The question is, will we get that bigger rip or what will we see the weakness continue? And Tesla's chart. What is test on a bear market? Is that what this is? Where, uh, let me, I'm going on a different chart here by standard definition of going down 20% or more, um, from its all time highs yesterday in a bear market.Oh my God. Yeah. I mean, we, like I said, we will see, cause a lot of times these dips are followed by bigger rips. And that will be the question with Tesla stock. I think this week will be very, very important to see, um, who knows by the end of the week, we could be back at all time highs at around 1200 or we could come all the way back down to 800.So anyone out there that's trading Tesla, let me know how you are trading it in the chat. I'm very curious, you know, are you, are you playing it with the options? Are you buying the stock? Are you buying the dip? Um, let us know what you think about Tesla, because right now it just seems like there's a lot of wins being taken out of the sale.Of course, Elon Musk has a lot of different reasons to sell stock. Part of it is that if he doesn't sell any now than a lot of his options can expire, um, without him exercising them because you can only exercise so many each quarter. So if he doesn't start doing it now, um, he literally needs money to pay the taxes, right.And, and like, and she doesn't have the money they're there. They're the adage goes, there are a bunch of reasons to sell a stock, um, paying taxes, being one of them. There are only a few reasons to buy one reason to buy. There's only one reason. One reason to buy. Well, yeah, we'll say there's only one reason buy what's the other reason using the one, one reason why talking to.Well, if you're like a inset. Yeah. But if you're say short a stock, you need to buy it to cover. You know, there, there are multiple reasons you can buy something. If you're an insider, like Elon Musk is, and you're going to buy the stock. There really is only one reason because you think it's going higher.There are a multitude of reasons is why you would want to sell a stock. But I think regardless of what that reason is for Elan, um, for Tesla, shareholders and Tesla fans in general, seen him sell stock is a bear sign. So we shall see. But right now, Tesla down about 4% on the day, continuing, uh, uh, bear trend for the stock, which we haven't said in a while.So, um, again, let us know in the chat, how you guys are trading it. Um, etc. Same Tesla just approved to sell electricity and sexist. We'll see if that can be a catalyst for the stock, but who knows, Dave is saying he's buying the dip every time it's on sale. So it has been proven right? Time and time again, buying the dip always works.Isn't that the rule, it always works except in some stocks. Yep. So Spencer, before we get to Matt Hammond, we've got one more headline, this one in the restaurant space. Um, so if you're a, you know, a fan of fast food chains, whatever this may interest you, uh, QSR. Yeah. We know it. Owners of burger king and Timmy hoes over owners of burger king, Tim Horton's, Popeye's just acquired another brand today and an all cash deal, a sandwich.Franchise, you know which one that is Spencer? I, well, I saw the headline, it was firehouse subs. It was $5, billion dollars for firehouse. So some expensive subs. So that just goes to show you guys, if you open a sub shop and you do well and you franchise it out a little bit, you can sell it for a billion dollars.A restaurant brands goes out, buys, firehouse, and then a $1 billion cash meal, uh, you know, will, it looks like the markets like the move for QSR up about a percent, but nothing crazy. So we will see how prior house is able to impact, uh, restaurant brands is, you know, revenue, balance sheet overall, but just some, just some headlines in the restaurant space.That is, that is a, those are some expensive stuff. That's all I'll say by Shelly, congrats to the firehouse subs, seriously, that company donates a portion of their profits to firehouses. So, so congrats to them. Great job. Yeah. Who knows? Maybe they'll stop that. Now that they're under new ownership. I doubt it.I hope not. Um, Shelly pointed out another headline in the, in the restaurant, fast food space. So McDonald's announced a partnership is still relevant. It's about to be holiday season. So every time Mariah Carey she's and it's here, it's here. It makes it come back every year around Christmas time. So we've seen, McDonald's do this with a few other artists have, have, you know, deals.They have one with BTS the popular, uh, K-pop Korean pop band. They have one with Travis Scott. Um, so now they're doing the same with Mariah K. Yeah, I know. So anyway, uh, so we know it's approaching Mariah Carey's season. Uh that's that's in a couple of weeks though. Uh, you know what season is now? It's Manhattan season.It's IPO season. Let's get mad at him and all the total talks to my POS. Is he at? Nah. Hey, I'm doing great. How are you guys doing it is IPO season. Um, we had an off season there and, uh, some, some pretty big ones. So, uh, okay, excellent. I can't wait to hear how you put revealed last week. So here you go. I told you I was going to watch for Vivian, but it did play out what we'll get to that one in a second.Um, first thing I wanted to say is thanks to everybody who contributed to the fundraising campaign. I said, I wanted to get some better streaming equipment. I want to live stream. Some IPOs have been talking with Benzinga they've at least indicated. Maybe we'll do a little bit more switching out to watching some of these actually go live.I think it would have been pretty fun to watch some of what ribbon did, uh, you guys have, you know, talking to Rowan, he's going to kick me out some gear as well. Uh, but we, uh, we got $2,000 in under one week. Um, and I really appreciate all the support. Some of the things I'm gonna use that for is improving the presentation quality of these, uh, kind of weekly shows.I would like to do some live streaming of the IPO debuts. And if time allows, I will do some video breakdowns of the IPO as before, uh, before they go live. Um, really appreciate that. It's not too late to contribute more, I'll buy more stuff and, um, you know, improve things even better. You should have some equipment on the way, man.Yes. So I've heard and I, and I'll ask for some, if you guys have some t-shirts or stuff, I'll wear those on the, on the show and with what I'm doing. So, you know, uh, yeah. Yeah. Well say what's on your waist. Some schwag sweats. Okay. So we actually had a lot of really good ones. Um, we talked about sent a one off 25%.We'll just run through these real quick. I didn't like this as a play. I don't generally like, uh, anything that dumps like that anyway, uh, dumped off the debut. If you did say, Hey, wait, this is below the IPO price. It's dip this far. How, you know, how bad could it get? Um, you know, you were rewarded not just with a retracement up to , which is a lot of times all that we see.Um, but if you held through that and said, okay, well, I'll give this some room to run. Uh, it just for no real reason blew up, uh, head up to 2250. And you know, one of the things about trading is you're looking for, uh, stocks with catalysts. You're looking for volatility. That's what you're looking for in day trading.And that's why I like IPO is not, all of them are going to do this. Uh, but if you have, if you like this company, I guess a lot of people do like this company, um, you know, your catalyst is, Hey, it's IP. Uh, the momentum, the volatility, the volume are all going to be about as high as you can ask for on the days that they IPO, which is what make these attractive targets for a day traders.So St was one society pass. If you remember last week, I said, Hey, this kind of, you know, a crappy, uh, Asian e-commerce ish, you know, S IPO that really looks sort of weird with a pretty low float. This could be a stealth IPO. Um, I tried to get in on this, and unfortunately we will hit the indication price rate before it debuted.So I had mindset at 1350 and it debuted at 1550 and then dropped to 15. So if I had been a little bit more aggressive out of caught this ride from 15 through four halts, top tier, like 42 or something, um, came back here around 30 and we see these just run the same pattern, ran up to 52. Uh, the next morning ran up to 70 and we saw these with thanks.Uh, C pop, um, TRS. Why do you suppose that is? I don't know if we've ever, if I've ever acted that before. Yeah. So there's different theories about this. Um, Having talked about it with a bunch of people and putting our heads together. The thing that makes the most sense to me is that, you know, whoever's buying it way up here is not trying to buy low and sell high.They're almost like trying to buy high and sell low, um, or really just buy high and not give a crap. I was going to say, buy high and sell higher. I thought, well, I mean, who's buying, I mean, they are pushing this up through halts on day two, you know, and somebody paid somebody up at $60 for a garbage company.I mean, we saw EJH was one of them that did this and it's like a cleaning company in China. Uh, w and w which spiked yesterday through some Holtz off some random, I mean, they're, they're low float to begin with. They tend to try to do things to deter us from seeing them or for wanting to play them.They're so bad that, um, you know, no one in their right mind is going to pay this thing. The IPO price was a $99, you know, who is going to say, okay, well, this company has no revenue or barely any revenues. The, uh, the, the platforms that they run are garbage. Uh they're they're just losing money. You know, who's going to pay $15.It's so bad that it's good. It's so bad. That it's good. That's what I think. I know. I mean, my, my answer and for this until proven otherwise is that they're all, they all have ties to China. I mean, we saw FCU. The was a uplifting. They all have a similar on underwriters. This one was max. We've seen a lot of them that were, uh, boasted securities.We saw a bunch that were network one financial Sutter, and a lot of these companies have done IPOs together. They've co-written, um, you know, been the co-writers on IPOs as the underwriters. So there's sort of like, they must happen my theory and they use the same lawyers and they have, uh, my opinion is that they're helping Chinese and other wealthy Asians, especially Chinese follow money out of China.So if you have a whole bunch of money in a bank account in China, and you're trying to get it into Hong Kong or Singapore or into the Western markets, what you can do is you can issue shares somehow out to, you know, if you can hand shares cheaply to your cousin or your uncle or some affiliated partner outside of China then, and just tell them, Hey, I will control the, you know, control it, just control the float.And I will buy, you know, as much of this stuff as I can, uh, with this say $200 million I have in a bank account here in China, you know, that money as I buy those shares that no one else has no. You know, who else is participating in this market? Not a lot of people. So if I'm the only one buying your shares, I'm basically giving you that money and moving that money from China to, um, you know, to the west.And I talked about last week, pets, pets was one that I had called out a month ago and sent out to my newsletter when it was about a dollar 30 or a dollar for. Because they had the same underwriter do a direct offering of 30 million shares basically at about 60 or came out to about 30 cents a share when you factored out the warrants and the profits.And you're like, well, that should just sink the share price, but it didn't, it did a little bit, um, but it came right back up and now it's up at $6. You know, it was at $4 when we talked about it on the show last week. So why are they doing this? Why is hoodie H UDI? Why has that got to $45 in the last, you know, few months?Why has, why did TRX go all the way up to a hundred dollars? And then in one day lost 90% of its value with, you know, with no headline, no new news, no nothing. Um, why does, uh, w and w sometimes randomly pop, why do, uh, you know, why do these go well? Because in my opinion, they're moving money. They're using these as vehicles to get money out of Asia and into, you know, Western markets and the seat after, after this happened, I went back and said, geez, you know, Y you know, what, what did I miss here to not make me just put my limit order at like 16 or 20 for that matter?And I went back and I looked up, the CEO is, you know, extensive experience doing startups in Shanghai. The CFO, you know, is Chinese. So, um, you know, there are hands FCU V when we look back at it, we said, oh, we had our eye on it. And it took a day before they ran it from like five or $6, all the way to 25. Uh, in one day after their up listing, and then now it's come way back down, but what was up there?Oh, the whole, like the only three employees are all very, very Chinese as in, they don't even have American alias names. They're Chinese engineers. So this tie back to China, and that makes sense if you're a wealthy Chinese person with tons of money in China right now, given what, you know, president Xi is doing over there, he is basically cracking down on the wealthy and if I was a rich person, uh, or a rich person in China, more specifically, I would be trying to get my money out of there too.And it's not easy to do that. So even if you're paying a 30, 20, or 30% premium on the shares that maybe get bought out or sold by other people, um, and this is an effective way to, and it's not the first time that the stock market has been used as a way to funnel cash out of a country. The Russians were doing this in the nineties.Um, and that's, that's the only answer that I have. How does, you know, how do completely garbage companies make insane runs? Uh, that all of a sudden, I mean, this one's still kind of holding on, but I don't, it's, it's, it's nowhere near any reasonable valuation and all of these tend to Peter out, or they all do Peter out eventually.And when I look at pets and what they're doing there, I'm just like, okay, I'll just, I sold enough. You know, I bought in at basically a dollar 20 and I sold enough when I reached eight on one of these days where it gets by. That I've already paid for my position. And now I can just sit back and if they run it, I think they're still running it because it hasn't fallen out yet.And when it does fair enough, fair enough. Anyway, I try to call these out when I I've made huge profits on some of these, uh, I made 30,000, $33,000 on a thousand shares of TRX. When it debuted, it went opened at 17, went into a three-hour hall and opened up again at $50. You know, so if you can spot these and you take kind of a, okay, well, you know, I'll, I'll give it a shot approach to it.I mean, the, the returns have been massive. UTME that was another one. Anyway, back to the more traditional kind of fun and boring ones that are also profitable. If you play them right. Expensify, we said we liked, uh, we got in here at the debut. I do like taking a $2 profit rate off the run. Um, it's sort of, kind of the easiest, I would say two hours and trading is defined a good, you know, a good company with these guys had to have a positive baseline financials.They're somewhat brand recognized the float wasn't too big and it gave you exactly what you expected right off the debut. So you buy a thousand shares, get in it, you know, say 39 75, sell it at 42. That's like a really pretty comfortable, easy 5% win, uh, right off the bat. Uh, the market. Wasn't really rewarding.These IPO's on day one, the way that we've seen maybe three or four weeks ago. So this one pulled back a bit. You could try to double dip. I generally don't do that. Uh, but where the real money was in these plays and I'm taking notes for kind of the next set of, uh, of IPOs is a, these day two runs. Uh, this one actually touched $50 today.You talked about that a lot. So especially for brand name IPO's, a lot of people are starting to kind of come into the IPO. I'd say that the number of followers I've got has been much higher over the last two weeks than the, you know, the previous six months. And I think a lot of people are keying in on it and it's, in some ways you have to adjust because if everybody's buying in pre debut, that's less demand once it actually goes live.But a lot of people are kind of catching that overnight media cycle where the, you know, the headlines say, you know, Expensify pops 50% on its debut, and they're not talking about this move. They're talking about the IPO price was like 18, and then it debuted at I. Yeah, I, and you know it, wherever you can do the same thing.I I'm hoping we can get to that because I, I was taken aback at the ferociousness of the day to run in green river. And I guess I shouldn't have been, but I was cause. Because it seemed to go straight down, skip through the, to that one that, or, you know, black ways, again, $2 taker just right on the debut, $2 in your out hole, you know, and you can hold these and they come back in.I wanted to show you one thing about holding IPOs. And again, I don't consider playing a debut to be super risky is, um, okay. People who played this cocoa water, uh, you guys were talking about it this morning and that was a, it was actually not a good debut play. Uh, and which is why, you know, when people ask me, oh, what do you think of this company?I'll say, well, you know, for a long-term position, I don't, I wouldn't suggest buying debut. Um, but you do want to start watching it then, because then you kind of know where it's ranges, where it trends. But if he did say, oh no, this one's going to do great. Uh, everyone loves it. Uh, I'm gonna, I'm going to buy the debut and you got stuck in it and you didn't get any kind of day to run.I've held IPO debuts for, you know, usually it's about a month before you're gonna see what it's going to turn around or not. And the catalyst you're looking for after the debut is the end of the media. Um, or the, uh, press release kind of silence, period. I guess they call it. And the first earnings report.Now, these guys happen to come in with a very strong earnings report. And if you had liked this company enough to buy the debut and you have the conviction to buy it there, why not hold it here? See what it does. And. You know, today you finally gotten, you know, today was the first day after a month, basically a trading that you got an opportunity to take your profits.Do you stop there? Probably I do. If I'm holding a bag and I'm given the opportunity to cut it for a non loss, I'm out, um, very rarely will I hold longer than a day to have it come back and then say, no, I'm going to get greedy. Uh, that's only hurt me when I've tried to be pigs, get slaughtered anyway, a vaccine city by the halt, uh, by the debut, this had a ton of buzz, low float, sell the halt right there.Easy as pie and take your profits. Say thank you. Uh, derm debut below. Where did I put ribbon? Okay. I would love your thoughts here. Cause it seemed like he just went straight down and I, and I want to pull it up on, um, give me a second. I'll pull it up and we can look at the, uh, the chart here. So ravines pretty much exactly what I said.It would do two things. One, I had just taken a win on a. What was it? The, uh, Backblaze or the one before that was earlier in the day and after take a win off and just be like, okay, that's the one I wanted. I am, you know, I can try to keep playing more, but I ended up starting to make bad decisions and, uh, try to control against that.Uh, Ratheon was on one hand, a great a, you know, I mean, how much more social media buzz and momentum could you ask for than any V play when Tesla just broke a thousand and it had a lot of other great, uh, you know, I had a lot of good storylines to it. The Amazon deal it's Ford as an investor, um, but had a huge float and I don't like huge floats the floats 153 million shares.And we S I think I said on the show that it reminded me a bit of snowflake and Coinbase. And my, and my, uh, theory was that we'd get about 10, 15 minutes of upward momentum and then correction, which is exactly what we saw. And for me, I'm not long EVs. I still think that, you know, at some point in the not so distant future, the market is going to realize that selling vehicles is only so profitable that not everybody, um, is just going to buy one model.And, uh, you know, they got supply chain issues. It's just the valuations on these don't line up with what automobiles have traditionally sold for. And I think eventually we see that I don't know when it's going to happen. Clearly it wasn't this week. Um, w I did, you know, so I was in the gym and I was watching, you know, ticker in between sets.And when I saw it kind of come here, I think I'd got off my run and it was a hundred. I thought I already missed that dip here, but, you know, maybe that's the, maybe that's the place to buy for the day to media run, because this is clearly going to get a ton of media hype. And then it started moving down again.And I kind of said, um, maybe, you know, maybe it's not as hard as I thought it was, but clearly if you saw this and bought in for the day too, and I mean, you're in an excellent position. It's a one, I mean, Clayton has pointed out. I, I, I, I lost sight of it. Yeah. I mean, w w w we did, we hit one 50. Yeah, we did.We hit one 50. Holy cow. Holy moly. So if I had pulled that day, you know, that day one trigger down here, I would have sold it, maybe one 20. Anyway, I just don't like I went through over the weekend. I went through and I really needed to do a bit of a self evaluation of Metro. And I make so much more on IPO and sort of like, you know, I like to stack guys like Mitch, uh, and the, you know, the blanking on his name there, the guy that does the, the selection.I mentioned Chris. So they have, I mean, the, the, the, the amount of money that they've made for traders in their spec, like the spec catalyst to me, is kind of similar to the IPO. It's like, you know, what's coming up, you know, that it's going to have a merger vote, you know, that it's going to DCE back and become, you know, a name and that's going to be immediate, you know, the next door.That was pretty obvious media catalyst. And I went from like 11 to 18 in one day. Uh, so these, you know, I like specs and IPO's because no, where, you know, it's so easy to time what's going to happen with everything else in FDA announcement, that's going to come off market. Or, you know, whoever gets the news first is going to get it.And some, a spike right up, you know, you don't know that that's coming or these other plays. And I looked back and I just I've done so well on these words, swing trades, where you're trying to find the bottom and, you know, read the trend and you have to wait, you know, a long time to make your money.Whereas an IPO, I want to make money in like one or two days at keep my, you know, my money in cash. You know, the market can crash one day and I'm not exposed. And I'm just in a, to me, it's it fits my style. Uh, if you can't sit there and play these in real time, would your screen all day, you know, then it's not a great trade.If you're good at day trading and reading charts and all that stuff, you know, maybe that's better for you. I'm not. Uh, I ended up, you know, with a long list of bags, waiting for them to turn around. I like to get in, get out, hold for one or two days, maybe three, if I really think it's hot and maybe I should have read this one a little bit more.It's also, is it a price where it could come down a lot more as well? So, um, never been great with EVs, but we'll see this week, there's a lesson to take forward from this week that maybe we will, uh, be able to catch. So, um, let's, uh, jump through affinity. I think we've recovered, uh, covered those. So this week's featured IPOs.Do you want to say anything more about ribbon? No. I was just curious to hear how you played it. I mean, I sorta lost sight of it today, so I was surprised to see it at one 50. I realistic. I felt like going in, we were, we were Jones in for, for a rock pole on the way that was wrong. That was wrong. Uh, but it just sorta had those vibes near, but Hey, sometimes the obvious place to play.So, uh, what do we have this week? Ooh, she was asking me when I became a speck fan. Uh, the first fact that I really banked money on was, um, what was that? Uh, Nicola. So I've been in SPAC since pretty much the second one. That was it. That was the second big one of this. Yeah, that was yeah. After fan do. And I got FanDuel like the day after it disrespect or not FanDuel or DraftKings drafting.So I got, I got dressed and that was like, I didn't really know what a SPAC was. And I think a lot of his back was that in, in may of 2020, so that put them on the maps, put us up, put us on the map. And since then I've played a TMC Michonne. Uh Chris's you know, uh, I got high on cue. I got, uh, they're they're, they're a handful they've been, they've been pretty good.Uh, and it just, you know, don't get greedy, take your profits and, uh, you know, look for the next one. I'm actually almost always sell out, but by the time I see, you know, 20 to 30% up, I'm just like, yeah. So thanks, bye. You know, and, uh, raise up the cash. And then they run up to like a hundred percent gainers, but that's okay.My room, I have two rules and trading. They are, uh, written here. So I don't forget. They are take like you can't read them, take profits without regret. And don't chase. Those are my two rules. As long as I stick to those, every time I break those and get myself in trouble, when I stick to those rules to do pretty well.You got the calendar. I saw one, the other jumped out to me, but so, so let's run through the boring ones. Sure. Uh, sonar group is not so boring when you consider solar coding for. And they do have, this has sexy all over it. Yeah. And they have, so they don't have any revenues, no point in going over financials, they do have 50 million in customer deposits for their sign-on vehicle.Um, as I understand, those are deposits that, uh, I don't know what the refundability is on those, but when you combine two hot, you know, you're talking about eco solar and Evy and that's, you know, how, how much more do you want there? Right. And you can't put Bitcoin in it's can you, um, so not, yes. Yeah. Right.But you can buy with Bitcoin. That would be the next catalyst. Um, but, uh, yeah. Uh, they, if they mined Bitcoin with the spare solar power, then maybe you could, you could pump this up even more than it is, but this is about as much, um, kind of hype buzzwords. You can cram into something right now. And I got to try this one because, you know,yeah, Wednesday, we don't have any until Wednesday kind of a little bit thinner week. This week, Iris energy. This is a Bitcoin miner. Uh, they don't hold Bitcoin on its balance sheets apparently. But if Bitcoin, how is that possible? Uh, maybe they just sell it right away. I'll on mine and they sell it. Okay.That's something new. I gotta, I gotta research a little bit more, but they do have positive cashflow and operating profit, which leads me to believe that they are selling these, um, And they're basically they're using IPO money to buy more hardware. So if they're successful in mining, why not scale up? Uh, especially when the price of Bitcoin, at least a lot of people believe it's headed to, um, you know, to a hundred thousand.So if the, unless Bitcoin crashes before Wednesday, uh, this looks like a pretty hot play. S D I G, and a couple of the other, all the other Bitcoin IPOs have done pretty well. So 8.27 million shares. That's pretty low float. I like this. Uh, you know, the trend is your friend Bitcoins are trending. So we got my point, right.With all these IPO's. So we've got Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. None of them have priced yet. Right. Do we have an expected w we have the ranges, but we don't have the pricing until, and the pricing can change, especially for the hot ones can change dramatically. Can you give the range on these if you have them?Okay. For, I don't know, they might've pulled as C S E V already. That's too bad. Let me see a Sono price range. 14 to 16. Okay. Um, we've got, uh, IRN 25 to 20. So for the hot ones, we often see them get bumped by, you know, a dollar or two price out of range, a price at the high end and things start pricing at the low end then, unless, you know, if you get a discount to that then, okay.Maybe that's interesting. Uh, in other words, the debut comes live below the IPO price. That's been a pretty safe, uh, play, as it works its way back up to the IPO price, you would expect not a lot of IPO price, uh, buyers are selling, uh, for an immediate loss. So, um, but kind of pricing in the middle that has not been a very good, a sign of strength and I'm generally sitting on the sidelines for those.Okay. Um, but yeah, I mean, solar, Evie, and Bitcoin to lead off the schedule, those, you know, once they should be fun, uh, user testing, this is a platform for companies to test user engagement processes. Uh, maybe it's a good business revenues up 44% last nine months gross profit up 51%. Um, but negative cashflow, negative operating loss, negative income.This is kind of just one of those SAS plays where I've never heard of this company before. It reminds me a little bit of this company was like internet advertising program IAP or something. I don't know the. If you, if there's no brand recognition, they have to be really strong to get, you know, people to come in and buy them.And there's also a sort of odd follow on offering lurking in the, this is not the, it's not a lock of expiration, but they have the right to sell an additional 27 million shares. If the price is 10% above the IPO price, you know, it's something like over 10 days in the previous week or something like that, the point is that the debut price will likely be over 10% to begin with.So if the IPO price on this is, uh, 15 to 17, let's say they debut at 17 or 18, and then it actually debuts at 20. So if they IPO price at 17 or 18 and debut at 20, you already at that 10% level, and then it's, it's think it's a hundred days or something 90 days, then they can, you know, then they can sell them 27 additional shares, which almost doubled, you know, it's more than doubles the float.And I don't really like it when I see those kinds of things just gives me shivers, like remembering what coping had hidden in its, uh, lockup period, which was probably the worst IPO I can recall. Um, playing that was the day was you'd have like 60 or 65 and miss now at 27 and never even gave you like a.Courtesy rebounded any point, really? It just was a downward downward dumpster fires. Alright, super interesting here. Um, res, now this one is, I mean, a similar customer engagement and communication. Revenue's up 2.6% gross profits up 60% again, negative baselines. And unfortunately it comps to Weaver, which last week did not do well on its debut and brace has a higher valuation, but I think it might appeal to more businesses.So I don't know, 8 million shares. It's just, I don't feel super good about these. And given that there are others that I do like more this week, I probably just let these pass. I can't play every single IPO. There are people who have that approach, you know, for them and they really manage those trades.They're better at day trading than I am. They buy on the dip and just hold it for ever sometimes. But, uh, this one to me, both of these sort of user cutting and Braves, both in customer engagement, if user testing, somehow those, well, maybe that changes my opinion on Brays, but I'm looking forward more to this one.It's a sweet garden. Now we talked before about how restaurant chains have done really well on their IPO's. And I kind of include bros in that, uh, you know, in that group because it's a chain. It does well on. You know, on a limited number of locations, the theory being well, if you raise a bunch of money and expand it nationwide, it'll do even better.So this one is like, kind of, I guess they say plant forward, which I read as vegetarian, but I guess they probably have some meat in there somewhere. Maybe they do. I'm a little bit deeper. I'm not a vegetarian, but Hey, you know, everybody wants to go out to eat how they want to. But, uh, interestingly, they acquired this company called spice food and this company looks pretty interesting.They're basically like a robotic powered restaurant system. So you're kind of getting a technology angle on a restaurant chain and given what bros did given what Portillo's did even, uh, F w R G, which is some, you know, breakfast restaurant that I'd never heard of a chain has done, you know, did well off of its date, IPO debut.So these guys are article last week that robot sales like industrial robot sales are at an all time high. I didn't see that. And that, and that kind of makes me feel like this is in alignment with some of the trending topics in the market right now. Okay. So the rebounding out of COVID revenues up 50%, I mean the revenue numbers mean nothing.We've talked about this before. If you're going to compare how a restaurant did for any P you know, the last six months, nine months, 39 weeks, whatever, uh, to the year before we're still making comparisons to. And I just kind of have to throw those out the window, uh, negative cashflow, net income, and operating loss.I don't love though to see that in a restaurant industry, others have been, I think a, you know, Portillo's was, you know, positive and its financials. Um, but I said, I don't want, I'm not going to miss the next chain restaurant play and, uh, bros, Portillo and F WRG. They all did well for IPO's it's 12.5 million shares.It's got healthiness to it. It's got the sort of, and although, you know, Oatley did badly today and beyond meat hasn't done well, there is still a demand for in health forward plant forward eating. And I want to give a, you know, I want to give a restaurant chain, um, you know, I'm going to stick with the trend there and try the rest of the rest.Ha ha healthy food. Alternate is not hot right now though. So, well then maybe we get a reasonable entry price on this as well. All right. That's the glass half full approach. Okay. Fair enough. KinderCare. Yeah, the main thing is just again, so KinderCare learning, um, education centers, blah blah, blah, 1500 locations reopening momentum.They make revenue. This is something this should not be allowed to be a public company. I'm sorry, just to not, no, no. Forget to forget that this should not be a for profit. Like childcare in the, in the U S is so unaffordable. And now we have companies that are going to be publicly traded. They have to answer to investors and the answer to wall street about their stock price and their, their margins and their, and China just made that move a few months ago and killed all the private.This should not, I, this I, that might not be a popular opinion, but I mean, this should not be a publicly traded company. I missed we're talking about childcare, whatever. Just tell us, tell us about the IPO. Ah, yeah. W gross profits are up 3534%, but again, we're talking about comps to lock down, so I can't count much in there.They do have positive baseline financials. So cashflow income operating profit are all positive. So it's a big company. I mean, you're talking about 1500 locations and I mean, we're a capitalist society. If our social different socialistic approach to working, you know, the private market's gonna, you know, is the only, it's our only hope of we can otherwise we're just gonna have, you know, who's going to be the educated future.I mean, I agree with you. I th but we're talking about the holistic approach. We have the socialistic approach to K through 12. It's just pre-K that people versus this is ages six to 12. So this competes with, um, with public school. Okay. Yeah, I do six to 12. I think it's a lot of like preschool and afterschool.I kind of skipped over because I just sort of like, nah, maybe this company is pissing me off next change the subject. All right. Six weeks to 12 years old. Oh, six a week. Wait. Okay. Whatever I, I w oh yeah. Yeah. We've been filling a need there. I have an 18 month year old kid and a child. And, you know, there are days when we would like to just put her in someone else's care if we found someone trustworthy.I bet. All right. Um, no, I love my daughter. I love spending time with her, but it's a lot better. Anyway, uh, Austin gold, this one is sort of like, Hmm, well maybe, uh, it's a gold exploration company in Nevada with corporate offices in Vancouver. Uh, they are revenue, which means they basically just are exploring right now.And the website is horribly lacking. Uh, it looks like something a kind of intern might build as a test project and a web development company. And for me, that's a red flag. I, uh, you know, I mean there's pages where it says like, uh, error content missing on their press releases. Uh, their investor page is basically blank.Um, and since I am a designer developer, I do find that, especially for these sort of low float under the radar IPO's unless I'm looking for it to be terrible. Uh, not having a strong, solid website is sort of like, I don't know how seriously I can take this company if, um, you know, if they don't even have an updated website, uh, I want to I'm with you.One interesting thing though, is that, uh, some people I know who have some knowledge of Nevada and gold mining said that these guys are operating before areas that they're operating in are the right areas to be operating in. Um, and the CEO just last week sold his previous company for $2.8 billion, which was it's really M resources.And he sold it at a, something like a 30, 40% premium to the share price. So Cheryl, you know, shareholders are happy with that. Uh, the float is 3 million shares, but Roth capital is not a particularly loved underwriter. Uh, they must've done something. I still haven't nailed it down, but they have sort of a reputation for screwing, uh, IPO buyers and people tend to avoid them.Um, we've also seen a lot of their, IPO's just seem to get terminally rescheduled and we're up against the clock. We, we, we got, oh, that low. We're on time. Yes. Awesome. That Hammond runs IPO warriors joins us every Monday to run through the weeks late an IPO. And we appreciate that Matt, or as a pleasure and go to the newsletter.I get the newsletter. I feel warriors.com. I'm going to start adding some more, uh, kind of featured breakdowns on individual IPOs. Um, my kind of longer-term vision is to have time to make videos, to put on there as well, to break down some of these with a little bit more in-depth analysis of the actual financials, uh, when I'm reading on Twitter, that kind of thing.So, uh, stay tuned, sign up for the newsletter. Follow me on Twitter. Thanks guys. Have a good week. All right, let's keep it going here. Our next guest has been waiting patiently backstage dog Drysdale. I've mentioned him at the top of the show. He was the CEO of Sayven ticker. CYB N a B. It's bringing him on the show.How are we doing Doug? Happy Monday. Thank you for taking time out of your day to join us here on Benzinga live. How are you doing today? I'm doing great. Thanks gentlemen. Thanks for having me today. You're welcome. So real quick, before we get started for some of our audience that may not be familiar, do you mind just giving us a quick rundown of what it is that Simon does and what the mission is there?Yeah. So Simon is a biopharmaceutical company and we're working to transform psychedelic drugs that we've known about for decades now into actual therapeutics for mental health disorders, like depression, addiction, and anxiety disorders. Got it. So last week, I know we saw some news about M C Y B 0 0 3.So that's one of your guys's PR proprietary drugs. Do you mind just overviewing that news real quick? Yeah. Last week was actually an historic week, uh, in the many decades that people have been working on trying to transform these molecules into actual therapeutics. Two pieces of data came available. One was from one of our peers that for the first time in a 200 plus patients study unequivocally proving that siliciden, which is the active ingredient that comes originally from magic mushrooms, proving that it works in depression and they're paid in helping treat people, people with depression, both the solid and robust resolve at the same time.Simon released data showing that finally after decades, we're able to completely transform this molecule and turn it into something that's actually useless as a therapeutic. The downside visceral assignment historically has been that clinic times are eight hours. So your patients are in the clinic for eight hours a day.And significant side effects and adverse events and would see why B3 we've shown that we can cut this clinic time in half and we can reduce potential for side effects like nausea and headache and other adverse events in half as well. So a major breakthrough. So essentially you're saying that so psilocybin on its own, which, which, like you mentioned, is, um, what's found in magic mushrooms has been proven to help with depression, but there've been downsides, um, to just take an oral.So psilocybin, so with CYB three, you were able to kind of address some of those downsides, um, to, to the actual psilocybin. Exactly. So we've taken psilocybin, we've made it synthetically in the lab and then we've modified it to improve the profile so that it's has a safer profile for patients and pay spend half the time in the clinic.Got it. So, so for some people out there that may have, um, some of these psychological disorder, major depression disorder, um, bipolar, and I know some of them have, have tried a lot of different things and, um, you know, different medicines on the market don't work. So, so is this something that, uh, can be seen as an alternative to helping these patients when those other medicines don't seem effective?Yeah. And once approved they have. So when you look historically back at how we treat depression, we typically use drugs called SSRS, which unlike Prozac. And when you look back over the last couple of decades, on average, a SSRI is typically I know better than placebo in patients with mild to moderate depression and many patients try two or three or more of those Sri's before running out of options.And so a CYB three now provides once it's approved another option for patients to tackle their depression and addiction and anxiety disorder. Did Doug, this has Spencer here. I want to ask you, um, about the, the headline we got late last week, and we're getting again here today about just through the Republican, a bill to legalize cannabis.Uh, I sort of grew up these two things together. I know they're not really technically the same thing, but I sort of look at, um, psychedelics as, as sort of following the cannabis lead in every respect in terms of just regulation and capital markets. Um, I'm wondering if, if, if the move by, by the GOP, if that has sort of changed your, um, changed the, the, the equation at all for a psychedelic regulation at large in the U S.No, not really quite different. So I see that there's a general sentiment change towards looking at these alternative types of treatments and that's all positive. We're looking at drug development that needs to go through the FDA and we're planning studies plan that are coming up in early, early next year.Um, FDA has granted breakthrough therapy status to sub assignment. So they've indicated that this molecule was really potentially important in mental health and da just, uh, came out and said that manufacturers should be making more of these substances to allow more research to be done. So I think we're seeing very positive signs, but DEA and FDA, when it comes to turning these molecules into actual therapeutics that can be prescribed by a physician.So, so Doug is there, uh, you know, a lot of opposition from, I guess, you know, what you could call like big pharma, some of the producers of these SSRS that see, uh, this field as maybe something that's emerging as a competitor to them. So are there, are they, do you see that opposition for big pharma? No. I think the big pharma will see this as an opportunity.When you look across the big pharma space, many of their psychic psychiatry departments have gone over the years. They've become neurology departments. And so there's really been very little innovation in psychiatry in maybe 30 years. So when you look at the total addressable market of all these indications that psychedelic companies are working towards, it's around $300 billion annually.So I think the big pharma will absolutely be interested in this is a space where there's been very little innovation for separately. So Doug for Simon. I mean, I, you know, the namesake comes from psilocybin and mushrooms, but I understand that you're working on other drugs as well. Which other, uh, you know, drugs are you working with outside of psilocybin?Yes. We're working on some other molecules that are related. Uh, these molecules are called tryptamines, which are all like serotonin, which is a naturally occurring. You're a transmitter in your brain. As we're working on some other tryptamines for anxiety disorders. We're also working on a range of molecules called phenethyl means.And these are molecules that are related to MGMA or masculine that might help with PTSD in the future. So we have about 50 molecules in our library currently, and we're taking our lead two candidates into the clinic very shortly. Wow. So, so for investors, you know, our, our, our audience here is mostly retail investors some day traders.What could they be looking out for just in the end, not with cyber in particularly, but just in the industry as a whole, like, are we so early stage that maybe, um, you know, we continue to see some of these names get beaten down or do you think it'll be pretty quickly once we start seeing, okay. People are really noticing that, Hey, look in the psychedelic space, this has actual value and potential, and we can see those investors start coming.Yeah, there has been a bit of a rush over the last couple of years, companies rushing into this space. Uh, but I think we're moving from a period of news to a period of Qaeda. So Simon was one of the first companies sort of the state of this last week. And I think those data points will start to really separate companies from each other and differentiate them.So look out for data. That's coming out of clinical studies over the next six to 12 months, and that'll reset some of these companies apart, I think from some earliest stage organizations that are not quite up to speed yet. Good question here from our chat. Um, how does the FDA's new designation for, for a Simon's work, uh, affect the timeline for commercialization?This is from solar up. Yeah, potentially the breakthrough therapy status, uh, could accelerate the timeline to, to commercialization. There's two things really, uh, the first is that, uh, FDA provides a rolling review. And that just means that they're looking at the data that you submit in real time, not, not in lumps at certain time points, and that's much more efficient.You also get to collaborate with that day and ask questions, which means that instead of guessing what they're looking for, you can take advice on what they're looking for. And typically we breakthrough therapy status to FDA requires perhaps just one phase three study, which are the big expensive studies rather than two.So that can save time and cost of coming to market as well. Got it. So do you have any like ballpark timeline on when you hope to get some of these drugs through the pipeline that the approval? Yeah, so unfortunately drug development is quite slow. Um, but for a reason, the good regaining payments have to be, have to be safe and they have to be tested well so that they can be prescribed for patients.So from where we are today, we're looking at those kind of four to five-year timeframe, still to get through those major critical studies with the first one kicking off in early 20, 22. And then from Brando, likewise, with cannabis or as well as what happened to cannabis, do you foresee it being a case of we get a medical first and recreation and then, and then later on some states doing both at the same time, or, yeah, I don't think so.These are very much going down the pharmaceutical route. And the concept here is that they will be given under supervision or clinical setting and combined with psychotherapy. So patients will go through a period of therapy associated with the treatment, and it seems to be the combination of psychotherapy and the molecule of the drug itself that lead to these good outcomes.Uh, in some studies we've seen that four times, the effect size of SSRI is a four times greater effective at treating depression when combining the psychotherapy, uh, with the molecule. So it's hard to see with this current generation of molecules, uh, that there'll be a recreational. Okay, that makes sense.So, Doug, have you seen a big shift over the last couple of years, just in sentiment regarding, uh, some of these drugs becoming, you know, uh, like viable treatments, because I'm sure, you know, five years ago there would be doctors that scoffed and said, oh, this isn't real medicine, et cetera, but now it seems like more and more people are taking this field seriously.And it's not just doctors. I mean, first of all, psychiatrists are typically fairly open-minded about trying new treatments for their patients, but then you add in the FDA and the DEA throwing their support behind this work. And then also major chip biotech funds. Many of which have invested in Simon are really getting behind this as well.And when you start to see the smart money getting into the space and we know that there's real potential. Got it. So I think one of the, you mentioned that in the last 30 years there hasn't been that much, uh, you know, development or improvement in psychiatric care. Um, and I think one of the problems is that a lot of doctors, you know, see it as, okay, I'm going to prescribe someone, uh, you know, this SSRI and that should help alleviate the symptoms or help solve the problem.But, um, you know, oftentimes a lot of psychiatrists talk about some more holistic measures on top of the medicine. Uh you know, looking at some of these other holistic, you know, things people can do to improve their mental health outside of the drug, or is it simply, um, you're just trying to develop this molecule that you think will be a better.Well, it sounds for the molecule. Let's make sure that these molecules are, have realistic duration that can be scalable and let's make sure they're safe and well tolerated. So we minimize the side effects, but you also want to make sure given the nature of these molecules that they're given in a safe environment.So we've created a psychotherapy program called embark. It takes in six domains of best practice, like a therapy. And we using that to train therapists that will apply to therapy in our clinical trials. And we're making that open source. So therapists can get trained. They want to do that, but also to make sure that we're applying it's like therapy in a consistent way and putting patients in a safe environment.Yeah. I was just curious if that was part of the, I guess quote unquote treatment plan is like, okay, we'll, we'll get, um, this patient on say C Y C Y B3, but that patient should also be getting, I don't know, X amount of hours of sleep a week or exercise, you know, having the other things that help factor into someone's mental health outside of just what drugs they're taking.Yeah, of course. I mean, exercise, eating well, getting good sleep are all good contributors to mental health. When we look back at some of the academic studies that have been performed using psychedelic drugs, uh, those that have reduced or eliminated the psychotherapy have been shown to be less effective.So really does seem to be a combination of the psychotherapy and the drug together. So it forms a kind of a package that helps people overcome the trauma. That's underlying that depression, all. So Doug, what drew you to this industry? I mean, do you have more of a psychiatric background or more of a chemistry background?You know, how did you get here? Yeah, I started out my career in a lab, uh, but I've been in, in, uh, pharmaceuticals in the healthcare industry for 30 years. So I've been developing drugs for, for that time. And, uh, you know, like most of us, you guys too, I'm sure we all know someone in a loved one, family, friends has been affected by depression or addiction.It's tragic as soon as it's all around us. So in 30 years of drug development, I don't think I've had an opportunity in that time to help as many people in such a profound way as we can with the psychedelics. So, so our mission to really turn these into therapeutics once and for all. So, but do you have anything that drew you particularly to psychedelics or was it just that you identified that, Hey, this is a good opportunity here to maybe help tackle some of these problems once and for all the truly groundbreaking.I mean, I can set, I have family and friends have been deeply impacted by this and to be able to combine your work with helping the people that you love is never a bad thing. And it's red, you see data like we see with psychedelics and how profound the effect can be. Literally patients who have spent years of addiction walking away from a psychedelic session and free from those addictive cravings for weeks or months at a time from just one session.I not seen anything like that in my career. So this is an enormous. Got it. Well, Doug, thank you for coming on the show today, we will have to get you back on as Sabin announces more data and news. Um, I know a lot of us here at Benzinga are kind of, you know, following this industry closely and very fascinated by the, um, you know, the progress that has been made so far.Uh, so Doug, thank you again for coming on. Thanks for having me guys. Um, all right. It's one. O'clock we're going to have our next guest on, in his second before I bring them on, though. Uh, AB did you see what Luminari is doing today? L a Z R L a Z R. We had them on the show on Friday and we're up 11% today.Let's go. I'm not saying Benzinga is why Luminari is up 11% today, but I'm also not saying ending is not why. Yeah. I've heard some kids on the street are calling the Benzinga bump. Um, oh, I thought that's something different.I got both errands to live for that one. Oh man. All right. Well, I, I don't even know how to follow that up, so I'm just gonna bring my man Jake on the stream. Jake, how we doing? Hey, how are ya? Thanks for asking what's up. Jake? Who Jasick from trend spider. Jake. I thought of you this morning because we're talking about Grogan and I know that's one of your favorites.So I'm sure you're happy today. I do like it. Yeah. Now I have it as a long-term investment. It's not something I actively trade, so I just keep dollar cost averaging in, but yeah, definitely a nice day kind of a weird market out there. Honestly, got a lot of, uh, what I like to call Christmas colors in the watchlist.You don't really have, you know, a lot of green, a lot of red, it's just kind of just every other stock I have in the watch list is either red or green. So getting the Christmas color vibe there right now, but definitely kind of weird with, with spy is a weekly candle from last week. That's something that does have me a little cautious.I do kind of lighten, lighten some of my positions today. It was a definitely a huge week for me last week in the trading arena. So I definitely don't want to be giving back profits. So, um, I did lighten things up. I still, I think marijuana is probably just getting started, but you know, uh, we have to kind of look at the broad markets before we look at individual names too much.And, and yeah, so with, with spy, I'd really want to, to get above last, week's hide for this to be a little bit of a more risk on sentiment, but Bitcoin is, well, you have this weird pump last night, and now all of a sudden you're back to where we started. So just kind of a weird market. It is OPEX this week.So that's something to keep in mind. Uh, Yeah. So that's, yeah, I'm not in any options positions this week, uh, for that reason, just you, you have some crazy mo

Conclusiones La operación y el mantenimiento de un edificio, es un mundo que existe desde mucho antes que el BIM, es más complejo que el BIM y es más importante que el BIM. El BIM ni ha inventado ni tan siquiera a “revolucionado” el mundo del mantenimiento.Otra cosa es que aprovechando el “hype” del BIM, los comerciales aprovechan para vender soluciones profesionales de mantenimiento, atribuyen las ventajas de un mantenimiento profesional al acrónimo BIM.De todas las ventajas que el BIM supuestamente aporta a la fase de mantenimiento, sólo hay una que es real: reducción drástica de tiempos y costes, en la recopilación inicial, de la información necesaria para las labores de operación y mantenimiento. Qué es realmente la fase de operación y mantenimiento Gestión y mantenimiento de inmuebles, o Facility Management, o FM.Definición de la wikipedia Datos El FM está entre los 4 gastos más importantes de una empresa.En la mayoría de los casos, es el 2º gasto, sólo por detrás de RRHH. Impacto del FM en el ciclo de vida de un edificio AVISO: Las siguientes cifras son siempre orientativas, y cogidas con pinzas. Además, no es lo mismo una empresa cuyos edificios son fábricas, que una que tiene oficinas. 20% del coste: Diseño y construcción.5% del coste: Demolición.75% del coste: FM. Dividido en 35%-20%-20%35%: Gestión patrimonial.20%: Energía (factura de la luz).20%: Uso del edificio.Gestión de espaciosServicios a las personasServicios a los activos (Mantenimiento) Gestión patrimonial Compra de edificios, gestión de alquileres, seguros, impuestos, gestión de proyectos de construcción y reformas importantes. NOTA: BIM aquí, no aporta ventajas en fase de mantenimiento, sino en fase de diseño y construcción. Gestión de espacios ¿Quién lo va a usar? (Personas, salas de reuniones, puestos de trabajo...)¿Qué equipamiento necesito en ese espacio? (Inventario de de equipos y mobiliario) Gestión de servicios Las personas que ocupan los espacios requieren una serie de servicios que también hay que gestionar: Mensajería, conserjería, cáterin, limpieza, seguridad, vehículos de empresa, etc. Gestión de mantenimiento Los equipos colocados en esos espacios necesitan un mantenimiento para funcionar bien: mantenimiento correctivo, mantenimiento preventivo, garantías, gestión del personal de mantenimiento, calendarios, tickets, etc. FM tradicional vs FM integrado El FM siempre se ha hecho, pero de forma aislada, a base de mucho excel suelto, sin un plan de mantenimiento preventivo, sin herramientas de análisis que crucen datos. Existen software y metodologías específicas para FM, que suponen grandes ventajas sobre la forma de gestión tradicional. Hay muchos, pero dos de los más conocidos son: EAM: Enterprise asset management (Gestión de activos empresariales), también conocidos como GMAO (Gestión de mantenimiento asistido por ordenador). Los EAM son software específicos para las tareas de mantenimiento, son muy potentes pero no tocan las demás ramas del FM. Uno de los más conocido es IBM Máximo. Se usa mucho en empresas de tipo industrial. IWMS: Integrated Workplace Management System (Sistema de gestión integrada del espacio de trabajo) Los IWMS son software que tocan todas las ramas del FM (Patrimonio, espacios, servicios, mantenimiento y sostenibilidad), tienen la ventaja de que toda la información y gestiones están relacionadas, aunque no con el detalle de un EAM, por ejemplo. Los más famosos son Planon y Archibus. Estos software son más interesantes para empresas de oficinas, locales, industriales pequeñas/sencillas, etc. Algunas ventajas del FM integrado 10% de ahorro en alquileres.10% de ahorro en costes de utilización.8% de ahorro en coste de mantenimiento.Facilita el mantenimiento preventivoEl mantenimiento correctivo cuesta 4 veces más en equipos que permiten un mantenimiento preventivo. Coste de una implementación FM EAM: a partir de 50.000€, 200.000€ típico. Para empresas que facturen más de 10 millones de euros.IWMS: a partir de 30.000€. Para empresas que facturen más de 5 millones de euros. Falsas ventajas del BIM en FM Información siempre actualizada.Tener un modelo en 3D es mejor para el mantenimiento.Mejor gestión de inventario, toma de decisiones con enfoque global. Planificación y ordenes de trabajo más eficientes.Mantenimiento preventivo, IoT. El gran aporte del BIM al FM Ahorro muy grande en toma de datos inicial. Consejos Si eres una empresa grande que quiere empezar a hacer FM de forma más profesional, no empieces por el BIM, empieza por un EAM o un IWMS. Y si no tienes datos actualizados, subcontrata la actualización de datos, y ya que estás, pídela en BIM. Si eres una empresa pequeña (menos de 5 millones de euros) puedes lograr una gestión de espacios y de activos muy "low-cost" con Revit.No llamemos BIM a todo lo “nuevo” que pasa en el mundo AECO.

#IWMS05: Schluss! Aus! Ende! Manche Diskussionen sind nun einfach beendet. Ob der Mensch den Klimawandel macht, zum Beispiel. Ob unsere Zukunft anders aussehen wird, als wir sie uns bislang vorgestellt haben. Ob Kompensation des eigenen CO2 Footprints sinnvoll ist und ob radikale Veränderungen wirklich nötig sind. Nach einer mehrwöchigen Pause sagen wir unserem eigenen Confirmation Bias den Kampf an, der sogar uns immer wieder weiß machen will, dass alles schon nicht so schlimm werden wird und dass man das mit den Folgen des Klimawandels ja auch eigentlich gar nicht so genau weiß. #bullshit # Links Der Spiegelartikel: http://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/mensch/fridays-for-future-die-kinder-sind-laengst-noch-nicht-wuetend-genug-a-1260262.html Podcast Klimaneutralität https://overcast.fm/+H8fv7H-xg Time to panic: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/02/16/opinion/sunday/fear-panic-climate-change-warming.html Wieviele Sklaven für mich arbeiten: http://slaveryfootprint.org/

Ein kaputtgegangenes Quokka. Martin, der sich ausführlich mit dem Thema „New Work“ beschäftigt und zwar jenseits der Buzzwords. Dort wo es herkommt: Von Frithjof Bergmann, dem Begründer des New Work Begriffes. Denn am Ende (oder am Anfang?) geht es doch darum, dass keiner von uns Menschen morgens aufsteht, um die Welt ein Stückchen schlechter zu machen. Also: Wäre die Welt ein besserer Ort, wäre sie gerettet, wenn wir alle herausfänden, was wir wirklich wirklich wollen? Und wenn ja, was hält uns denn heute davon ab es herauszufinden? Ist unsere Arbeit heute wirklich eine „milde Krankheit“? Nicht schlimm genug etwas dagegen zu tun und doch schlimm genug, um an ihr festzukleben und uns zu lähmen? Von Fragen, die wir uns stellen und Antworten, die wir vielleicht nicht hören wollen.

Diese Woche haben wir uns mehr als sonst über Klimawandel, Weltretten und Co. unterhalten. Naja, wir hatten ja auch Hausaufgaben. Erkenntnis: Verwirrung! Es ist echt nicht so einfach sich über etwas zu unterhalten, was so groß, komplex und… sagen wir mal „emotional herausfordernd“ ist, wie der Klimakarren, der scheinbar im Dreck steckt. Vor allem, weil Pia’s Filterblase von nichts anderem als Greta Thunberg und streikenden Schülern erzählt, während Martin’s hinter irgendeinen Klimamond wohnt und von der großen Klimapokalypse nix mitbekommt. Es bleibt die Frage: Wie spricht man mit Menschen über etwas, was sie nicht sehen?

Anlass: Pias Megadepristimmung. Auslöser: Greta Thunberg und ihre wahren Wahrheiten im Angesicht der Klimakrise. Greta so: „Hey, das Haus brennt. I want you to panic.“ Die Menschheit so: „Oh, schaut, das Dschungelcamp läuft wieder…“ Und wir sind wütend. Und hilflos. Und wissen nicht, was wir tun sollen. Und wir glauben es geht vielen anderen genau so. 
 Also was tun? Was macht Sinn? Was hilft? Und ganz ehrlich: Ist das mit dem Klimawandel wirklich so ernst, wie manche sagen? Und wenn ja, warum reden wir nicht alle über nichts anderes mehr? Fragen über Fragen und ein erster Schritt etwas zu tun: Drüber sprechen und das Thema salonfähig machen. Und möglicherweise gemeinsam Lösungen finden. #sharingiscaring #isupport
