Send us a textHiring a contractor shouldn't feel like a risky gamble—especially when you're spending association funds and hoping for a great result for your repair or renovation project. On this week's episode of Take It To The Board, host Donna DiMaggio Berger talks to Cinthya Lavin, VP of Communications and Community Engagement at the Better Business Bureau, to uncover practical and attainable ways Condominium, Cooperative and HOA boards can hire smarter, avoid scams, and build a reliable vendor bench without slowing projects to a crawl.  Cinthya breaks down how BBB's e-quote tool helps boards get three accredited bids—often within a day—so you can meet competitive bidding requirements and keep momentum on key repairs and capital projects.  Donna and Cinthya dig into what “accredited” really means, how BBB verifies licenses and insurance, and how the ratings algorithm weighs responsiveness, scale, complaint patterns, and government actions. You'll learn why a vendor's willingness to answer complaints often predicts how they'll handle issues on your job, and why communication should be a top selection criterion alongside price and scope.  They also explore the evolving threat landscape. BBB's Scam Tracker offers a community-wide alert system for fraud attempts, and Cinthya shares simple safeguards for boards. This episode also includes a comparison of BBB with platforms like Yelp; discusses AI's role in business education and reviews, and highlights programs such as the Torch Awards which celebrate companies with strong character, culture, customer care, and community impact.  If you want to make faster, safer hiring decisions and elevate trust in your community, this conversation delivers the playbook.Conversation Highlights:  Why a 100+-year-old organization is still relevant in today's fast-moving business landscapeHow the BBB evaluates businesses and what really separates an A+ rating from a lower gradeHow boards and managers can use the BBB to vet contractors and comply with competitive bidding requirementsHow to identify complaint trends and spot vendors with recurring unresolved issues.Listed vs. accredited: The key differences between businesses that appear on the BBB and those that earn accreditation.Warning signs on a BBB profile, from licensing issues to unresolved disputes and suspicious business details.How the BBB can help confirm insurance, licensing, and other critical qualifications.What the BBB is seeing in post-storm reconstruction—and the rise of scams and fraudulent contractors.One simple step boards can take today to reduce vendor risk and protect their communitiesRelated Links:Podcast: Why Every Contract Needs to Be Reviewed with Becker's James Robert CavesResource: Consumer Resources from The Better Business BureauArticle: Am I Protected?

On Friday, the President announced Kevin Warsh as his pick for Fed Chair. Warsh has a track record of hawkishness from his previous stint as Fed governor. He has also annunciated a broad philosophy that the Fed has moved too far from its original mandate by promoting ESG objectives and in enabling excessive federal spending through quantitative easing. That being said, he has argued more recently that the Fed should cut interest rates more aggressively.

Guest: Padraic Scanlan. Scanlan discusses the structure of Irish land ownership, using Shirley Castle as an example of the disconnect between landlords and tenants.

“We'll risk-manage the portfolios such that, when beta is an uncompelling opportunity set, we have more risk-management overlays in place. And luckily, where we are today with the short rebate that you get paid to borrow and short bonds, it's not that much of an opportunity cost,” says Beach Point Capital Portfolio Manager and Head of Structured Credit Benjamin Hunsaker, discussing limited excess-return prospects in the context of long-short strategies. Hunsaker joins Bloomberg Intelligence's Noel Hebert on this episode of the Credit Crunch podcast to explore the climate in consumer and mortgage-backed credit products, the effect of policy headlines, supply-side housing issues and opportunities in commercial real estate.

In this episode of the Retire Sooner Podcast, Wes Moss and Christa DiBiase offer educational context on widely discussed economic, investing, and retirement planning topics shaping today's financial conversations. Listen as long-term data, market history, and household-level considerations are used to frame—not forecast—how these issues connect. • Examine why the U.S. middle class is often described as shrinking and how income mobility, inflation-adjusted thresholds, and household dynamics influence that narrative. • Review how artificial intelligence is commonly discussed in relation to productivity, workforce demand, and labor market participation. • Outline general considerations around emergency savings, including income consistency, job stability, and insurance coverage. • Explain factors households often weigh when deciding whether to engage a financial professional for planning support. • Provide historical context on gold, market corrections, and why gold is sometimes referenced in diversification discussions. • Summarize why dividends are frequently included in long-term investing conversations across market cycles. • Highlight planning considerations for investment club assets, including potential capital gains implications during account or custodian transitions. • Examine variables that may influence retirement spending needs, reinforcing that planning outcomes vary by household. • Compare commonly discussed perspectives on dollar-cost averaging versus lump-sum investing during periods of market volatility.

During my recent trip to Australia, I learned that navigating a foreign country can feel normal but different all at the same time. On the one hand, my family and I enjoyed the familiar experiences of being on vacation, such as unplugging from our daily routines, relaxing on a long flight, seeing the sights, and spending time with loved ones. But once we arrived in Brisbane, we had to get used to a new landscape and a new set of rules. The huge time zone difference. Driving a "ute" (utility vehicle) on the left side of the road and overtaking (passing) on the right. Calling "French fries" chips and our friends "mate." Keeping an eye out for wild kangaroos. Retirees may feel like they're facing a similar "familiar but different" financial landscape this tax season. While many of the strategies my team at Keen Wealth are discussing with folks are tried-and-true, some rules and details are changing due to new legislation that's going into effect. Your financial plan, and your financial team, need to be ready to adapt to these new rules so that you don't miss a key deduction and pay more in taxes than you really owe. On today's show, we discuss the One Big Beautiful Bill Act's changes to the tax code and some specific provisions that require thorough proactive planning before you file your taxes in April.

In this episode of The Marketing Rapport, host Tim Finnigan sits down with Pat Sullivan, Senior Editor and Conference Co-Chairman at Risk Information. They explore how shifting consumer expectations, economic pressure, and technology are reshaping both auto and home insurance. Pat shares data-driven insights on why more consumers are shopping for new policies, the rising importance of customer experience, and how independent agents continue to win trust in a market crowded with heavy ad spend. Pat explains how increased competition and shrinking pools of “perfect” customers are pushing carriers to rethink segmentation and retention. He highlights the growing complexity of auto repairs, the impact of legal challenges on claims, and why customer advocacy now often means turning to lawyers for support. Their discussion also covers home insurance, where climate risk and underinsurance are forcing carriers to recalculate exposure and pricing in real time. The views, thoughts, and opinions expressed are those of the speaker and do not necessarily represent the views, thoughts, and opinions of Verisk Marketing Solutions or Verisk Analytics.

Welcome to Episode 136 of Tablesetters! Steve and Devin are back as we continue our deep dive into all things baseball, and today we're thrilled to welcome back Ben Upton, co-founder and host of 11Point7, one of the most trusted voices covering the college baseball landscape. Ben last joined us on Episode 59 in February 2025, when college baseball felt like it was standing on the edge of something bigger. One year later, heading into the 2026 season, that momentum hasn't slowed. If anything, it's intensified, with portal movement reshaping rosters, NIL becoming more structured, national exposure increasing, and a preseason Top 25 that feels deeper and more volatile than ever. We kick things off by revisiting that conversation from last year and asking Ben what the biggest tangible change has been now that another full season is in the books. Is it the way programs like LSU, Tennessee, and Georgia reload annually, the speed and scale of roster turnover through the portal, or the way fans now follow college baseball on a truly national level? From there, we dive into the 2026 preseason picture. UCLA opens the year at No. 1 behind returning Player of the Year Roch Cholowsky, while LSU chases history, Mississippi State reboots under Brian O'Connor, Georgia Tech brings back its ACC core, and Coastal Carolina enters the year with one of the best pitching staffs in the country. Ben breaks down whether this season represents real parity or simply an unusually strong upper tier and which team is best positioned to take control if UCLA stumbles. Hot topics include the loaded Player of the Year race featuring Cholowsky, Drew Burress, Derek Curiel, Ace Reese, and Justin Lebron, how Ben evaluates award races beyond raw production, and whether 2026 is shaping up to be a pitcher-driven season with arms like Cameron Flukey, Jackson Flora, Casan Evans, Dax Whitney, and Tommy LaPour headlining the conversation. The discussion expands to teams just outside the rankings, Texas A&M's prove-it season, and the growing trend of college coaches moving into MLB roles. Ben shares his thoughts on Tony Vitello's jump to the Giants, other recent staff departures to the pro ranks, and whether this movement can officially be called a trend. We also hit mid-majors capable of making real noise, conference realignment growing pains, potential structural changes to the MLB Draft and minor leagues, and what that could mean for college baseball's future. Before we wrap, we close with quick hitters, including one team Ben is higher on than the rankings, one he's more skeptical of, a player casual fans will be talking about by April, the pitcher he trusts most in a winner-take-all game, and his early “Eight for Omaha” pick.

Another twist on conservation - helping the ecosystem in unexpected ways. Over the last several years, fires have burned through Canada, California, and Colorado, causing massive destruction. However, burning can be a medicine for our land that prevents disastrous wildfires, and gives native plants a chance against the overwhelming invasives. Our guests from Michigan Prescribed Fire Council have joined us to discuss the fire work they do in Kalamazoo County, and how you can even help.Firecouncil.org

This program explores the collision of tariffs, sustainability, design business acumen and shifting client expectations, offering a roadmap for navigating the volatility of the 2026 design landscape. Recorded live at Design Hardware in Los Angeles, I gathered a panel of industry leaders to dissect the economic and social forces shaping interior design as we head into 2026. Featuring Eva Hughes (Black House Beige), Shelly Sandoval (The Lauzon Collective), Rachel Grachowski (RHG Architecture), and Priya Vij (Hapny Home), the conversation confronts the “chaos” of the current market—from tariff-induced supply chain disruptions to the critical shortage of skilled labor. Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home. Where excellence meets expertise. TimberTech – Real wood beauty without the upkeep The discussion pivots from the technical challenges of “designing for disaster” and uninsurability to the creative opportunities found in circular economies and intentional sourcing. The panelists argue for a shift away from “fast fashion” interiors toward a “friendliness” of durability, prioritizing materials that pass the “grandparent test” of longevity. Ultimately, the episode emphasizes that in a volatile market, the most valuable currencies are transparency, deep vendor relationships, and educating clients on the true cost of craftsmanship. The “Friendliness” of Durability: A move toward “legacy” materials—like solid brass hardware and high-quality hardwood—that age gracefully and avoid the landfill, countering the disposable nature of current trends. Supply Chain as Design Driver: How tariffs and stock volatility are forcing firms to adopt “high-low” budgeting and pre-purchase models (buying and storing materials early) to protect projects from price surges. Designing for Disaster: The reality of rebuilding in fire-prone zones (like Altadena and the Palisades) is driving a demand for non-toxic, fire-resistant materials and a “circular economy” approach where building products can return to the earth safely. The Labor Crisis: A candid look at the “graying” of the trades; as master craftsmen retire without a new generation to replace them, the industry faces a loss of institutional knowledge and execution capability. Intentionality Over “Modern”: The panel discusses abandoning vague buzzwords like “wellness” and “modern” in favor of deep-dive mood boarding and psychological profiling to align client expectations with reality.

As biopharma pipelines grow more complex, manufacturers are under increasing pressure to scale faster, adapt to new modalities, and build resilience into highly regulated operations. Meeting these demands means manufacturing agility is no longer just a competitive advantage, it's a necessity. Yet, structural constraints, talent shortages, and legacy processes continue to impact progress across the industry.

In #coachbetter episode, Kim chats with Dr. Lindsay Prendergast, who's currently Assistant Director of the Danielson Group, and a best selling author. Lindsay was a teacher, administrator and a coach for many years before shifting to work with the Danielson Group. In this conversation, they talk about: Why appraisal and supervision is so important - and should be seen as a gift How appraisal has gotten twisted, and become so punitive Where coaching fits into this process Where the lines get blurry when administrators seek to bring coaching into appraisal  How we can help draw a clearer distinction between supervision, appraisal, evaluation and coaching and growth Why the language and the naming of processes (like appraisal, feedback, and coaching) so important What schools (coaches & leaders) need to consider as they are working towards building plans for both appraisal and growth This conversation might be controversial because it unpacks so many challenging concepts that are a key focus in many senior leader conversations. It is absolutely essential that we have clarity on the difference between appraisal and growth. Find the show notes for this episode here.

As healthcare leaders look ahead to 2026, the pace of change shows no signs of slowing. From the rapid acceleration of artificial intelligence and evolving site-of-service regulations to new federal policy signals and leadership shifts in Washington, the strategic pressures facing providers, including hospitals and medical groups, are intensifying. In this episode of Value-Based Care Insights, host Daniel Marino sits down with Chris Collins, President and CEO of ECG Management Consultants, to reflect on the defining forces of 2025 and explore what healthcare leaders must be prepared for in 2026. Drawing on more than 25 years of advising health systems, academic medical centers, and physician enterprises nationwide, Chris offers perspective on emerging trends, strategic risks, and the leadership priorities that will matter most in the year ahead.

I'm joined by landscape architects Andy Harris and Andy Sturgeon to explore the thinking behind the transformation of London's Sloane Street. Together, they tell the story of a project that set out to reimagine this 1km stretch as a green boulevard inspired by the nearby Chelsea Physic Garden — shifting it from a traffic-dominated thoroughfare into a calmer, more human-centred place. We talk about how landscape can knit together retail and residential life, improve wellbeing, and encourage people not just to pass through, but to linger — using planting as environmental infrastructure. From underground constraints and traffic reduction to biodiversity uplift and long-term stewardship, this conversation reveals how thoughtful urban greening can reshape experience, behaviour and connection in the heart of the city and it provides a great companion episode to last year's one on New York's High Line.  Benny's Insect of the Week: The Seven-Spot Ladybird - sponsored by Cerddwr's Herbs go to www.cerddwrshb.com and use the code BUGPODS for a listener's discount. www.cerddwrshb.com Cerddwr's Herbs on Facebook Sloane Street | John McAslan + Partners – official project page outlining the landscape and public realm transformation of this 1 km London boulevard with widened pavements, planting and green infrastructure as part of a masterplan for Cadogan Estates.
