Jacob sits down with agricultural economist Dr. David Kohl to unpack what a brutal downturn in farm profitability reveals about globalization, capital concentration, labor shortages, and long-term economic resilience. The two touch on tariffs, debt, and the limits of export-led growth, and then the conversation widens to examine how technology, demographics, and financial fragility are reshaping both rural America and the national economy. --Timestamps:(00:00) - Introduction (00:56) - Discussion on US Ag Economy(02:17) - Challenges and Opportunities in Agriculture(07:09) - Land Values and Institutional Investments(12:24) - Generational Transition in Farming(18:02) - Export Markets vs. Domestic Focus(23:03) - Future Trends and Strategic Insights(25:55) - Venture Capital in Agriculture(28:09) - Economic Outlook for 2026(29:21) - The K-Shaped Economy Explained(31:39) - Impact of AI and Job Cuts(34:55) - Global Economic Concerns(41:05) - Technological Advancements in Farming(49:39) - Financial Literacy and Life Skills(51:32) - Closing Remarks and Future Outlook--Referenced in the Show:Dave Kohl: https://www.farmprogress.com/author/david-kohl--Jacob Shapiro Site: jacobshapiro.comJacob Shapiro LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jacob-l-s-a9337416Jacob Twitter: x.com/JacobShapJacob Shapiro Substack: jashap.substack.com/subscribe --The Jacob Shapiro Show is produced and edited by Audiographies LLC.

In this episode of the FreightWaves Morning Minute, we discuss how the 2026 AV bill a game changer for heavy trucking aims to replace a patchwork of state regulations with a unified federal framework for autonomous vehicles. The legislation would allow driverless, cab-less trucks to move from testing tracks to interstate commerce, marking a major shift for the industry. The new year has started on a rough note, as Layoffs, bankruptcies batter U.S. logistics and manufacturing at start of 2026 with over 2,200 workers losing their jobs in just the first few weeks. Rising operating costs and shrinking demand have forced widespread restructuring and Chapter 11 filings across the supply chain sector. Finally, we look at why Prolonged post office closures focus of House bill, forcing the USPS to create a transparent database for service suspensions.

OpenAI has officially declared a "Code Red," reportedly delaying future product launches to frantically shore up ChatGPT against a resurgent Google. This defensive pivot comes just as Google unveils Gemini 3 Deep Think and Workspace Studio, powerful new tools that allow users to build autonomous agents without writing a single line of code. On this week's episode, Paul and Mike analyze this shift in power and explore the industry's quiet preparation for "recursive self-improvement," a near-future where AI models evolve without human intervention. They also discuss the backlash over OpenAI's ad tests, major leadership shakeups at Apple, and Anthropic's race to the public markets.

The managed service provider (MSP) market is projected to grow significantly, with a valuation increase from $337.6 billion in 2024 to $406.74 billion in 2025, driven by the complexity of modern IT infrastructures and rising cybersecurity threats. However, small businesses in the United States are facing severe challenges, shedding jobs at pandemic-level rates, with a net loss of 120,000 jobs reported in November 2025. This trend highlights a growing divide between small and large enterprises, as larger firms adapt more effectively to economic pressures, while small businesses struggle to maintain stability and are increasingly cautious about spending on new initiatives.The impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on the labor market is becoming more pronounced, with a study from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology indicating that AI could replace 11.7% of the U.S. workforce, equating to approximately $1.2 trillion in wages. As companies begin to manage digital employees alongside human workers, the need for effective governance and accountability frameworks becomes critical. Forrester predicts that by 2026, businesses will increasingly integrate AI into their workforce strategies, necessitating a shift in how leadership orchestrates workflows and manages costs.Windows 11 adoption has stalled, with its market share at 53.7% as of November 2025, indicating a growing indifference among consumers and businesses towards operating systems. This trend suggests that the value proposition for MSPs must evolve beyond device management and OS-level work, focusing instead on higher-level services such as identity management, application governance, and automation. As the market shifts, MSPs must adapt to provide solutions that drive business outcomes rather than relying on traditional refresh cycles and OS migrations.For MSPs and IT service leaders, the current landscape presents both challenges and opportunities. The need for clarity in navigating AI complexities and the integration of digital agents into workflows is paramount. Providers that can assist customers in managing these transitions and focus on outcomes rather than tools will position themselves as strategic partners. The future of the MSP market will depend on the ability to evolve and meet the demands of a changing workforce, ensuring that they remain relevant in an increasingly automated environment. Four things to know today 00:00 Small businesses are losing jobs, midmarket firms are reorganizing with AI — and MSPs must shift how they deliver value06:52 The MSP Market Is Growing Fast — but the real opportunity is helping customers manage AI, not devices10:07 Windows 11 Slowdown Shows Customers Don't Care About OS Upgrades — and MSP Value Lives Higher Up the Stack12:08 Slowing ChatGPT Growth and Rising Gemini Use Signal AI Models Becoming Commodities for Business Users This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  https://cometbackup.com/?utm_source=mspradio&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=sponsorshiphttps://scalepad.com/dave/

In this week's BikeRadar news show, Jack Luke is joined by Ashley Quinlan to discuss difficult times at Campagnolo, with news emerging that the Italian brand is planning to cut up to 120 jobs from its Vicenza HQ after posting losses of €24 million. Though unions disagree, the company says it has “no alternative” if it is to return to a sustainable footing. Jack and Ashley examine what the proposed restructuring means for the brand, how we got here, and what Campagnolo's latest clarification tells us about its future direction.  The pair also delve into Campagnolo's confirmation that it is developing new “intermediate” products, with Jack outlining what he believes the company needs to deliver to stay relevant in 2026 without alienating old-school fans of the brand.

In this episode, Chris, Saied and Rajeil dive face-first into the chaos Washington left behind after the longest government shutdown in U.S. history — and surprise, surprise: the data we rely on to understand the economy might be "permanently broken." With CPI and jobs reports delayed, distorted, or potentially never released at all, the guys unpack what happens when policymakers, investors, and everyday Americans are flying blind. Add in whispers of shadow revisions, missing reports, and political spin, and suddenly “the data is fake” feels less like a meme and more like a macroeconomic red flag.➡️ But that's not all. The job market is flashing warnings, the housing market is handing out 50-year mortgages like party favors, and the government's “we'll fix it later” approach is aging about as well as a warm gas station sushi roll. Chris and Saied strip away the noise, break down the numbers, and ask the uncomfortable questions no one else wants to touch. If you're tired of sugar-coated narratives and want the real story behind the headlines, this episode is your financial reality check — delivered with the usual THS wit, skepticism, and a couple of perfectly timed eye rolls.

The University of Michigan's November consumer sentiment survey, and October private sector job cuts tracked by outplacement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas, have raised concerns the US economy may be entering a recession. But data from ADP, state-level initial jobless claims, and the Chicago Fed's unemployment estimate, all paint a picture of a healthy economy. A closer look at the Challenger data, however, suggests the reason for job cuts is Artificial Intelligence. While AI might be able to displace humans in technology companies, it is unlikely to replace workers in many other sectors anytime soon. Still, it is clear labour is a primary worry in the market.

On today's “Tech Bytes: Week in Review,” we discuss federal cybersecurity cutbacks that affected this week's elections and a caucus of Midwestern states pushing to join the AI boom. Plus, Sens. Josh Hawley and Mark Warner introduced a bipartisan bill requiring some companies to report when AI replaces workers. Marketplace's Meghan McCarty Carino spoke with Axios tech policy reporter Maria Curi about these headlines and more.

A Redmond councilmember appears to encourage literal 'fighting back” against ICE, doubles down despite the police chief’s warning. Last month experienced the biggest October job cuts in over two decades and it’s because of AI. // LongForm: GUEST: Saul Spady on the future of Seattle. // Quick Hit: Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene appears to continue her leftward lurch after her appearance on ‘The View.’

The most October job cuts in over twenty years. More than October 2008, if you're keeping score. While that doesn't mean this is a repeat of 2008, can we all finally admit this is a really serious situation? And as the flat Beveridge curve emerges more clearly, the rising unemployment it represents is also causing collateral damage, pun intended.
