AI can be an incredible tool for organizing your thoughts—but can it replace an experienced real estate attorney? Richard Crouch, a commercial real estate attorney with more than two decades of experience, explains why experience still matters when navigating complex real estate transactions. AI can help review information and suggest language, but it doesn't have the real-world experience of seeing deals go wrong, understanding the practical consequences of contract language, or recognizing the nuances that can create problems later. In commercial real estate, a provision that looks perfectly clear on paper can have very different consequences in practice. That's why having an experienced attorney who understands the business—not just the legal language—can make a major difference. For real estate investors and sponsors, the goal isn't to avoid technology. It's to know where technology can help—and where experience, judgment, and expertise are still essential. Watch the full conversation for more insights on commercial real estate, syndications, investing, legal strategy, and what successful investors need to know before putting capital into a deal. 00:05 - Welcome and introduction of guest Richard Crouch 00:35 - Teasing Richard about attorneys killing deals; asking why he became a lawyer 00:51 - Richard's path to becoming an attorney and entering commercial real estate 01:42 - What Richard loves about commercial real estate compared to litigation 02:20 - Discussing the difficult aspects and fast pace of commercial real estate 04:13 - Discussing AI/ChatGPT, its limits, and the value of a seasoned attorney 06:05 - The evolution of syndications from 2001 to today 08:00 - Impact of capital raisers and market cycles on pricing and valuations 09:01 - Challenges of exiting the market or finding replacement assets 10:05 - Common habits, skills, and disciplines of successful long-term investors 13:16 - Discussion on asset classes (industrial, medical office, multifamily) 14:35 - Current investor pain points, interest rate impacts, and loan covenants 17:30 - Advice for passive investors: warning signs, red flags, and performance metrics 21:14 - Importance of sponsors having skin in the game 22:06 - Value of having an attorney review deal documents before investing 24:10 - Essential legal documents for investors (PPM, Subscription Agreement, Operating Agreement) 25:59 - The three-step framework for passive investors (Jockey, Saddle, Horse) 27:56 - Common misconceptions about legal fees and the complexity of CRE transactions 30:34 - Differences in financing (local bank vs. CMBS loans) and reading the fine print 31:46 - Case study: A deal saved through creative structuring and seller financing
Scott Bethke is a Thoroughbred and Quarter Horse jockey who has won 50 races this summer alone. He's also been the leading rider at Chippewa Downs and The North Dakota Horse Park. Scott grew up riding horses and eventually found his way into the world of horse racing, where every race is a mix of preparation, instinct, risk, athleticism, and pure competition.

Auxiliary Gate 251 - Jockey William Antongeorgi III by CC Broaddus, Alan Schneider, & Geoff Riggs
A calm and composed riding technique with a demeanour to match, are the attributes that have endeared Koby Jennings to many trainers in his fifteen year career. After spending the latter part of his apprenticeship in Sydney the heavyweight rider joined the fully fledged ranks knowing his opportunities would be restricted by weight. Nevertheless he rode winners consistently, earning the respect of some of Sydney's most astute trainers. Koby's CV is highlighted by wins in a Provincial Championship Final and a Golden Eagle. Two years ago he returned to his hometown of Traralgon and the winners have continued to flow across the region. He's currently taking a break from the sweat box and trying his hand as a businessman. He's on the podcast this week to bring us up to date. Koby begins by assuring us that he has no intention of abandoning his beloved thoroughbreds. In fact he's still riding regular trackwork. He talks of his association with Will Hayes who runs Lindsay Park's Pakenham stables. Koby says it took an age for him to get any traction among the Victorian riding ranks when he relocated from Sydney two years ago. The 31 year old outlines the reasons for his current absence from the race riding ranks. The heavyweight jockey talks about his acquisition of a Jim's Mowing franchise in Traralgon West. He looks forward to the challenge. Koby takes us back to his original apprenticeship to his late grandfather and the excitement of his first race ride. He says it took him a long time to crack it for that elusive first win. He reflects on that unforgettable day at Stony Creek. The jockey looks back on a loan-out to Darwin trainer Stephen Brown and an exciting eighteen months in the Top End. Also in Darwin was jockey Carl Spry who later got an opportunity in Canberra. Koby says he decided to go with Carl and was fortunate to get a start with trainer Mark Schmetzer who supported him admirably. He talks of a brief stint with the Jones/Joseph team in Canberra which preceded a move to Randwick trainer Kevin Moses. He talks of the valued tutorship from the former ace jockey. Koby looks back on his chance meeting with a young Dutch girl who was working for Anthony Cummings at the same time. Koby and Nerissa are nowadays the proud parents of son Declan and daughter Riley. He looks back on time spent with Jim and Greg Lee in the latter stages of his apprenticeship. He reflects on one special day towards the end of his junior term when he won four races for different stables at a Rosehill Gardens Saturday meeting. Koby talks of happy associations with several prominent stables, and pays tribute to the trainers in question. He looks back on a thrilling two year old win on the Gold Coast for trainer Nathan Doyle and a Calibre Syndication ownership group. Koby says his association with Doyle continued after his move back to Victoria. The jockey looks back on his association with Bobbing, a horse who qualified for the Provincial Championship despite a serious setback. He looks back on the gelding's huge effort to win the $500,000 Final. He acknowledges the training performance by Bernie Kelly. Koby takes us through the “before and after” of his unexpected Golden Eagle win on Colette in the Godolphin colours. He remembers two stakes wins on the John Sargent trained Luvaluva and a surprise trip to NZ to ride the mare in a Gr 1 event at Te Rapa. In a complete change of direction Koby talks of his passion for deep sea fishing and the fibre glass boat he treated like a prized thoroughbred. He looks back on fishing expeditions many kilometres from home base. He pays tribute to his trainer father Troy who's continuing to train a small team of horses despite ongoing health issues. It's a nice yarn with a very disciplined heavyweight jockey who hasn't squandered an opportunity in his fifteen years of race riding. You can't help but get the feeling his career isn't over yet.

Auxiliary Gate 249 - Shelbi Kurtz, Ex-Jockey and New Trainer by CC Broaddus, Alan Schneider, & Geoff Riggs
Activities like pony club, showjumping and eventing were not on Shannen Llewelleyn's radar during her teen years on the NSW Central Coast. That's not to say she didn't like horses. In fact the idea of buying herself a suitable steed one day had crossed her mind more than once. A job at a local Woolworths Supermarket allowed Shannen to save diligently, and it wasn't long before she had enough spare cash to buy the horse of her dreams. That horse turned out to be a standardbred who'd never made it to the racetrack. She named him “Shadow” and began the slow, tedious process of teaching herself to ride from scratch. Not surprisingly there were a few anxious moments. Memories of old “Shadow” are beginning to fade these days as she boots home winner after winner on NSW racetracks- 150 winners in fact since March of 2024. Shannen joins us on the podcast to talk about her rapid rise. She begins by talking about her recent transition to metropolitan racing. Shannen talks about the crowded lady jockey's rooms these days in and out of the city. The 24 year old talks about her early upbringing at Lismore and the family's relocation to the Central Coast eleven years ago. She talks of her scholarly attributes. Shannen says she moved back to Lismore for a while and began her working life with Woolworths. When the time came to rejoin her mother and sister, she was fortunate to gain a transfer to a Central Coast Woolworths store. At age 19 she purchased her own horse. Shannen later sought a second job with hours to fit in with her Woolworths commitment. That job happened to be with a thoroughbred operation run by a master horseman.The journey had begun. She says a short stint followed with Wyong trainer Kim Waugh which led to an offer from leading Western Districts trainer Brett Robb. Shannen says she rode in almost 40 barrier trials before applying for a licence to ride in races. The process seemed to take forever. She looks back on her very first race ride at Dubbo, and admits she got a scare when the horse “bucked” out of the gates. The young jockey was thrilled to win at her 5th race ride on Dubbo favourite Elson Boy from the Dar Lunn stable. Shannen couldn't believe her luck when she rode another winner just two days later. She rode for just four months of her first season in the saddle, and couldn't believe the winning run that came her way. Shannen talks about the offer she received from trainer Jane Clement which saw her move to Bendemeer near Tamworth. She loved the experience. She talks of a Parkes Cup win last year on veteran galloper Knife's Edge. Shannen talks of her move to the Nathan Doyle stable at Newcastle a year ago. She acknowledges the horses to give her seven metropolitan wins so far. The jockey says her weight is giving her no problems at this stage of her career. Shannen makes special mention of her favourite horse to this point in time. She talks of devoted mum Danielle and older sister Lakisha. Shannen admits to being overwhelmed by the good fortune to come her way in such a short time.

Bob and Jenny Vance train a very small team at Ardmore in Auckland but boast a healthy strike rate with a Gr 1 win already on the board. I have vivid recollections of Bob winning the 1993 W.S Cox Plate on The Phantom Chance- the first of five Cox Plates I got to call for the Nine Network. Just three years after winning the famous Moonee Valley feature, Bobby Vance decided to call time on his stellar riding career and join his wife Jenny in the training ranks. Swedish born Jenny Moller had also enjoyed a very successful career in the saddle. We tracked Bob down last week and he agreed to join us on this week's podcast. He begins by talking of the Ardmore training complex and says he and Jenny run the operation unassisted. He reflects on the thrill of a Gr 1 training win at Te Rapa in 2021 with an expat Hong Kong galloper. Bob looks back on he and Jenny's initial reaction when daughter Maija announced her intention to become a jockey. He talks of Maija's immediate success in NZ and a subsequent five year stint in Australia. The former ace jockey talks of Maija's switch to jumps riding and the career ending injuries she sustained in a crash at Rotorua. Bob says he was watching the race on TV in Auckland and knew instantly Maija was in serious trouble. He talks of his daughter's horrific injury list and her amazing recovery over a period of years. Maija is now training in tandem at Cambridge with partner Josh. Bobby looks back on childhood days in Auckland and a work experience stint with a legendary Ellerslie trainer. When the time was right for Bob to be signed up as an apprentice jockey he had to go all the way to Matamata. He was required to go to school when stable chores were completed. Bob looks back on a very unhappy episode in his life. He remembers the stroke of good fortune that led him to an apprenticeship with legendary Takanini horseman Colin Jillings. He was there for the duration of his junior term and beyond. The Jillings/Vance partnership soon reached dizzy heights with the ongoing success of star galloper Uncle Remus. Bob looks back on his 4 win haul in the prestigious NZ Derby. He pays tribute to the training skills of Colin Jillings whose passing in 2022 saddened the entire NZ racing industry. Bob remembers with affection his two Auckland Cup wins. Vance makes special mention of another great favourite Mr. McGinty (his name whenever he raced in Australia). He's never forgotten the colt's Sydney debut and a defeat of “boom colt” Marscay. He literally won the race on three legs. Bob reflects on Mr. McGinty's amazing comeback and a swag of Gr 1 victories as a three year old. He talks of McGinty's subsequent success at the stud. The former jockey talks of multiple premiership wins at home. Bob looks back on a wonderful association with The Phantom Chance and that dominant Cox Plate win in 1993. Bob had been retired three years when invited by the VRC to participate in a non betting event at Flemington against some legendary former champion riders. He enjoyed the experience. He gives a special “shout out” to mum Ronnie who's still going strong in NZ. This is a nostalgic journey with one of New Zealand's best riders from the 80's and 90's.

When an Adelaide podcast listener contacted me recently about a potential interview with Glynn Pretty, I couldn't get things under way quickly enough. In the 60's and 70's this man's reputation was as solid as any top jockey in the nation. He spent a lot of time out of Australia fulfilling contracts in Singapore and Hong Kong, but whenever back in Adelaide he promptly reminded owners and trainers why people like Bart Cummings were so lavish in their praise. A dreadful fall in Hong Kong in 1978 was expected to terminate his career. Six years later he made a comeback and rode 50 winners in a year before quitting for good. Glynn put a lot back into racing following his official retirement, and at age 80 is still involved with the SA Racing Appeals Board. He's also enjoyed the thrill of horse ownership, especially an involvement with talented mare See You In Heaven. The daughter of Divine Prophet won six races for her ownership team, all at stakes level. We begin by talking about Glynn‘s love of the game of golf. The former star jockey looks back on 15 years as President of the South Australian Jockey's Association. Glynn's very proud of the part he played in the establishment of the SA Jockeys Academy in conjunction with TAFE. He explains how it works and acknowledges some of the great riding talents to come under his tutelage. He looks back on his inclusion in a team appointed by Stereline in the 90's to visit the USA on a promotional tour. The goal was to showcase the starting gates and running rails manufactured by the company in Australia. While in America Glynn saw jockey's safety vests for the first time. He quickly floated the idea in Australia. He talks of his collaboration with the Australian Jockeys Association in introducing a better form of indemnity insurance for injured jockeys. Glynn talks of childhood days in Adelaide and his battle with asthma. He was actually allergic to horses. He talks of his original apprenticeship organised by his father Stan. Things went terribly wrong soon after he started at the Morphettville stables of Bob Burrows. Glynn says he left racing altogether for more than a year but later regenerated an apprenticeship with trainer Bert Kenny. The legendary Colin Hayes came into the equation at one stage. Pretty remembers his first ever race ride at Strathalbyn and the magic of his first win at Cheltenham. There was enormous sentiment attached to this win. He recalls the traumatic circumstances under which his father lost his life in a motor accident. We simply let Glynn reminisce about some of the better horses he got to ride early in his career. Galilee and Light Fingers make for a good start. Dayana also gets an honourable mention. He speaks fondly of Hampton's Pride, one of the most expensive yearlings sold in Australia in the 1960's. Glynn speaks of wins in the famous Adelaide double the Goodwood Hcp and Adelaide Cup. His wins came one year apart. He looks back on wins in races like the SA St Leger, Port Adelaide Cup and SA Oaks. Glynn remembers his flying start the first time he took on a retainer in Singapore. He rode for just 9 months of the season but finished second in the premiership. He looks back on 4 consecutive years as Singapore's champion jockey. Glynn was stunned when awarded a rare honour after so little time in Singapore. He talks of wins in some of the jurisdiction's most important races. He says SA premierships were never on his radar because of the time he spent out of the country. He was however proud of a South Australian premiership after returning from Singapore in the 1970/71 season. He talks of three amazing retainers he was forced to decline during his career. One of them came from the UK. Glynn talks of the success he enjoyed in HK and his injury toll after the fateful 1978 accident at Happy Valley. He looks back on two other interesting feature wins in the early 70's- one in Queensland the other in Melbourne. Both winners were trained by Bart Cummings. Glynn never won a Melbourne Cup but says it could have been different had he been in the right place at the right time. He remembers a Singapore marriage to his late wife Gladys and the whereabouts of daughter Jodie and son Troy. Glynn Pretty's reputation as one of the best jockeys of his generation was set in stone. Just ask any racing man who was around in the 60's and 70's. Great to have him on the podcast. Old timers will enjoy his recollections. Younger racing fans will be impressed by the merit of his achievements.

White Briefs, Retro Ads & Australian Underwear Culture with Thomas This week on the Brief Talk Podcast, UNB Tim sits down with Thomas from Melbourne, Australia for a fun and unexpectedly nostalgic conversation about white briefs, retro underwear ads, Australian underwear culture, and discovering your style through movies, media, and vintage aesthetics. What starts as a chat about classic white briefs quickly turns into a deep dive into growing up influenced by American media, collecting vintage underwear advertisements, and why traditional white briefs still hold a special place for gear lovers today. Thomas shares how movies like 13 Going on 30, The Little Rascals, and even The Jungle Book helped shape his fascination with white briefs growing up in Australia, where they've never been quite as mainstream as they were in the United States. The two compare the differences between American and Australian underwear culture, from department store shopping to the struggle of finding classic full-cut briefs in today's boxer brief dominated world. The conversation also covers Thomas's journey through brands like Calvin Klein, Jockey, Stafford, Fruit of the Loom, Hanes, and Australian labels including Holeproof, Bonds, and Max. There's plenty of talk about retro styling, why Stafford briefs have become legendary among white brief fans, and how vintage-inspired underwear still resonates today. One of the highlights of the episode is hearing about Thomas's collection of framed vintage underwear advertisements decorating his home — including classic Fruit of the Loom ads, PlayStation campaigns featuring guys in white briefs, and 1950s family-themed underwear artwork. Tim and Thomas bond over their shared love of retro underwear advertising and preserving pieces of underwear history that many people overlook as art. The two also dive into Speedos, short shorts, retro masculinity, gay nostalgia, underwear representation in books and media, and why gear lovers deserve better representation in romance stories. Tim even teases his upcoming gay romance novel centered around underwear culture, vintage-inspired briefs, and gear-loving characters who actually understand that sometimes the underwear should stay on. If you love white briefs, retro underwear ads, classic menswear aesthetics, Speedos, or hearing two gear enthusiasts nerd out over vintage underwear culture, this is an episode you won't want to miss. Quotes for Social Media Thomas: “American media just kept finding its way to me over the years.” Thomas: “Stafford is still number one for me.” UNB Tim: “You're a true underwear lover if you know the underwear stays on.” Thomas: “Some of them are legit pieces of art.” UNB Tim: “We need an archive of all this stuff so we can have it later.” Support UNB If you enjoy the Brief Talk Podcast and everything we do at Underwear News Briefs, please consider supporting us on Patreon.

Angel Academy Session 2 puts two founder-turned-investors on stage: Neal Bloom and Ashok Kamal.
