In “How Humanoid Robots are Shaping the Future of Logistics”, Joe Lynch and Parker Conroy, Head of Product at Apptronik, discuss how Apollo, a human-centered, AI-powered humanoid robot, is set to transform the industry by working alongside humans to fill labor gaps and perform a wide range of tasks in a safe and efficient manner. About Parker Conroy Parker Conroy is the Head of Product at Apptronik, a leading developer of humanoid robots. Conroy has worked in robotics for more than a decade, guiding product management teams to design and deploy thousands of industrial robotic arms, autonomous mobile robots, drones, and now, humanoid robots. Prior to Apptronik, he was Director of Robotics Product Development at Verizon, where he led product management and robotics strategy in 5G and multi-access edge computing. Conroy previously spent five-plus years leading mobile robotics development at Omron Robotics and Safety. His graduate research focused on optimal control of UAV swarms, which led him directly into developing teams that designed the features of one of the first industrial autonomous fleet control systems. Parker's experience guides development roadmaps that target cutting-edge research grounded in reliable architectures, balancing innovation with mature technologies. About Apptronik Apptronik is a human-centered robotics company developing AI-powered humanoid robots. Our goal is to create human helpers to support humanity in every facet of life. Our robot, Apollo, is designed to collaborate thoughtfully with humans—initially in critical industries such as manufacturing and logistics, with future applications in healthcare, the home, and beyond. Apollo is the culmination of nearly a decade of development, drawing on Apptronik's extensive work on 15 previous robots, including NASA's Valkyrie robot. Apptronik started out of the Human Centered Robotics Lab at the University of Texas at Austin and has over 150 employees. Key Takeaways: How Humanoid Robots are Shaping the Future of Logistics Human-Centered Robotics: Apptronik's core philosophy is to create human-centric helpers, not replacements. The company aims for a future where robots and humans work together to enhance human capabilities and improve quality of life, starting in logistics and expanding to other industries. Addressing Labor Shortages: The Apollo humanoid robot is designed to fill critical labor gaps in the logistics and manufacturing sectors. By automating repetitive and physically demanding tasks, it allows human workers to be upskilled to higher-value, more rewarding roles. Humanoid Form Factor Advantage: The humanoid design of Apollo allows it to operate seamlessly within existing, human-centric environments. This eliminates the need for expensive facility redesigns, making integration into warehouses and factories much more efficient compared to other types of robots. Safety and Collaboration: Apollo is equipped with an advanced force control architecture, enabling it to work safely alongside humans in shared spaces. This makes it a "collaborative robot" or "cobot," removing the need for safety cages and allowing for closer interaction with human colleagues. Versatile Platform: Unlike single-purpose robots, Apollo is a general-purpose platform. Its versatile design and AI capabilities mean it can be programmed to handle a wide range of tasks, providing a highly adaptable solution for companies looking to automate various processes. Balanced Innovation: Parker Conroy's extensive experience in robotics ensures that Apptronik's development roadmaps balance cutting-edge research with practical, reliable architectures. This approach guarantees that the products are not only innovative but also robust and ready for real-world deployment. Strong Foundation: Apptronik's origins from the University of Texas's Human Centered Robotics Lab and its extensive history developing 15 previous robots, including NASA's Valkyrie, give it a solid foundation. This academic and research-driven background underpins the rigorous engineering behind the Apollo robot.

What does it mean to build a workplace culture that people want to join? In this episode, Kevin talks with Jennifer Moss about this important leadership question. They discuss the societal shift in how we view work, the psychological idea of mortality salience, and how these concepts are influencing employee expectations today. Jennifer also shares the basic elements of a strong work culture: inspiring hope, creating purpose, and fostering genuine community, whether your team works remotely, in a hybrid setting, or in-person. Additionally, Jennifer challenges the one-size-fits-all approach to office mandates and presents an alternative idea of the workplace as a “third place” where creativity and collaboration can flourish.

"Nothing's easy, man; being an adult sucks." -Mur Lafferty In this episode, we dive deep into Bully #5: The Nap. We discuss the sneaky ways the Nap can derail our writing plans. Rest is vital, but The Nap isn't rest. It's escape. We also discusses the importance of sleep hygiene and how to combat the allure of a cozy nap when creativity calls.  We touch on the other bullies we've encountered along the way, including Bart, The Blade, The Sponge, and Despair, each representing unique obstacles in the creative process.

In “Project 61: The Mission to Give Truckers a Longer, Healthier Life”, Joe Lynch and Jeremy Reymer, the Founder and CEO of Project 61, discuss the shocking statistic that the average life expectancy of a truck driver is just 61 years and the organization's mission to address this health crisis. About Jeremy Reymer Jeremy Reymer is a recognized leader and innovator in the trucking industry with over 20 years of experience as both a carrier and vendor. A frequent speaker and podcast host, he addresses critical issues such as driver recruiting, retention, compliance, and health and wellness. In 2016, Jeremy founded DriverReach, a driver recruiting and compliance technology solution later acquired by Tenstreet. He also launched the popular podcast Taking the Hire Road in 2021, where he continues to spotlight industry voices and share insights. Deeply committed to the future of trucking, Jeremy serves on several industry boards, including Next Generation in Trucking and the Indiana Motor Truck Association. In late 2024, he founded Project 61, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to tackling trucking's greatest health crisis—the 61-year average life expectancy of CDL drivers. About Project 61 Project 61 is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to improving the health and longevity of America's truck drivers. Named after the shocking statistic that the average life expectancy of a CDL driver is just 61 years, Project 61 is leading an industry-wide movement to confront this crisis head-on. Through awareness campaigns, education, and innovative health solutions, Project 61 seeks to empower drivers, carriers, and industry stakeholders to take action toward a healthier, more sustainable future for the trucking workforce. By addressing critical wellness challenges - including nutrition, fitness, mental health, and preventive care - Project 61 is working to change the trajectory of drivers' lives and extend careers that are vital to the nation's economy. Key Takeaways: Project 61: The Mission to Give Truckers a Longer, Healthier Life In “Project 61: The Mission to Give Truckers a Longer, Healthier Life”, Joe Lynch and Jeremy Reymer, the Founder and CEO of Project 61, discuss the shocking statistic that the average life expectancy of a truck driver is just 61 years and the organization's mission to address this health crisis. The Trucking Industry's Health Crisis: Project 61 is founded on a shocking statistic: the average life expectancy of a CDL driver is only 61 years old. This fact serves as the primary motivator for the organization and its mission. The podcast should emphasize this data point to highlight the urgency and severity of the issue, framing it not just as a health problem, but as an industry-wide epidemic that needs immediate attention from all stakeholders. Jeremy Reymer's Passion and Experience: Reymer's background as a seasoned leader and innovator in the trucking industry provides him with unique credibility. His previous success with DriverReach, a company he founded and sold, demonstrates his ability to identify a problem, develop a technology-driven solution, and lead a successful venture. This personal journey from a carrier and vendor to a nonprofit founder shows his deep commitment to the future of trucking beyond just business. Addressing Wellness Challenges: The podcast can delve into the specific health challenges that Project 61 aims to tackle. These include nutrition, fitness, mental health, and preventive care. The unique lifestyle of a long-haul truck driver—with its sedentary nature, isolation, and often unhealthy food options on the road—contributes to high rates of chronic conditions like obesity and diabetes. Discussing these specific issues will give listeners a concrete understanding of the problem. The Power of Community and Technology: Project 61's approach isn't just about awareness; it's about providing practical, accessible solutions. The organization recently acquired Offshift, a digital health platform specifically designed for truck drivers. This shows a commitment to leveraging technology and community to foster habit change and provide free tools and resources that drivers can use on the road. This technological component is a key part of the strategy to make a tangible difference. Beyond the Individual Driver: The mission of Project 61 extends to the entire industry. The nonprofit aims to empower not just drivers, but also carriers and other industry stakeholders. The podcast can highlight how investing in driver health is beneficial for businesses, leading to reduced healthcare costs, higher retention rates, and improved safety. This reframes driver health as a smart business investment, not just a moral obligation. A Collaborative Movement: Reymer's work with organizations like Next Generation in Trucking and the Indiana Motor Truck Association underscores his belief in a collaborative approach. The podcast can stress that solving this crisis requires a unified movement involving carriers, vendors, insurance partners, and the media. This collaborative spirit is central to Project 61's strategy of creating an industry-wide change.

Restoring Work-Life Balance (But I Hate the Word “Balance”!) Work-life balance. Sounds nice, doesn't it? But let's be honest — balance is boring! Life isn't a flat line; it's ups, downs, twists, and turns. What we really want isn't balance… it's harmony. In this quick 5-minute episode, we explore why chasing “balance” often leaves you frustrated and how to create the illusion of balance through harmony. You'll learn how to spot those niggling “off-kilter” feelings, uncover hidden clashes between your values, and make small, powerful micro-corrections that bring life back into flow. Whether it's work vs. relationships, health vs. ambition, or just feeling stretched in two directions — I'll give you the tools to notice, question, and adjust. And the best part? These aren't big life overhauls — they're tiny shifts that keep your energy, motivation, and relationships thriving. So if you've been feeling pulled in all directions, this episode will help you realign without losing the spark that makes life exciting.

In “The Dark Funnel Demystified: Unlocking Hidden Sales”, Joe Lynch and Jennie Malafarina, the CEO of Virago Marketing, discuss how businesses can drive measurable revenue growth by understanding and leveraging the invisible customer journey. About Jennie Malafarina Jennie Malafarina is the CEO of Virago Marketing, a Cleveland-based agency helping transportation and logistics companies turn marketing into a revenue-driving engine. Since taking the lead at Virago in 2020, she has elevated the agency's impact—guiding strategies that deliver measurable results aligned with client growth goals. With over a decade of experience in freight tech and B2B marketing, Jennie has held leadership roles at Trimble Transportation, Banyan Technology, and Transportation Insight, and has taught marketing at The University of Akron. She also co-founded FR8MVMT, a platform for innovation in trucking, and hosts the FR8 Marketing Gurus podcast. Jennie is known for aligning marketing with business strategy to drive scalable growth through demand generation, content, and sales enablement. She holds a master's degree in communication from Cleveland State University. About Virago Marketing Virago Marketing is a full-funnel marketing agency specializing in the transportation and logistics industry. We help companies align sales and marketing to drive measurable revenue growth—whether through strategic campaigns, content that converts, or complete marketing department support. Our team combines deep industry knowledge with modern marketing execution to deliver demand generation, brand awareness, and pipeline acceleration. From startups to enterprise providers, our clients rely on us to cut through the noise, clarify their message, and connect with the right audience at the right time. With flexible engagement models—from project-based work to full fractional CMO support—Virago is the partner logistics companies trust to turn marketing into a growth engine. Key Takeaways: The Dark Funnel Demystified: Unlocking Hidden Sales In “The Dark Funnel Demystified: Unlocking Hidden Sales”, Joe Lynch and Jennie Malafarina, the CEO of Virago Marketing, discuss how businesses can drive measurable revenue growth by understanding and leveraging the invisible customer journey. The "Dark Funnel" is a Reality, Not a Myth: The episode will explain what the dark funnel is—the invisible customer journey that happens before a lead officially enters the sales process. Listeners will learn how potential buyers are influenced by content, social media, and word-of-mouth without ever directly interacting with a company, and why it's crucial to understand this hidden process. Aligning Marketing with Business Strategy is Non-Negotiable: Jennie Malafarina, with her extensive experience at Virago Marketing, emphasizes that marketing isn't just about generating leads. It's a revenue-driving engine that must be directly tied to a company's overarching business and growth goals, turning it into a strategic partner rather than a cost center. Content is the Currency of the Dark Funnel: The podcast will highlight how high-quality, valuable content—from blog posts and whitepapers to podcasts and social media discussions—serves as the primary way to influence buyers in the dark funnel. Jennie will share insights on creating content that answers customer questions and builds trust long before they are ready to buy. Sales and Marketing Alignment is Key to Unlocking Hidden Sales: A central theme will be the necessity of a seamless partnership between sales and marketing teams. The episode will cover how Virago Marketing helps companies create a unified strategy where marketing generates qualified conversations and sales is equipped with the right tools and information to close deals, ensuring no opportunities from the dark funnel are lost. Industry Expertise is a Competitive Advantage: Drawing on her background in transportation and logistics, Jennie will explain why deep industry knowledge is essential for effective marketing. Virago Marketing's success lies in its ability to speak the language of its clients and their customers, allowing them to create messaging that truly resonates and cuts through the noise. Demand Generation > Lead Generation: The episode will likely differentiate between old-school lead generation and modern demand generation. Jennie will discuss how focusing on building market-wide awareness and interest (demand generation) is a more sustainable and effective long-term strategy for filling the sales pipeline, especially when considering the dark funnel. Measuring the Unmeasurable: Tracking Dark Funnel Impact: The podcast will provide practical advice on how to measure the impact of marketing efforts that don't result in immediate, trackable leads. Listeners will learn about alternative metrics and signals that indicate success in the dark funnel, such as brand mentions, website traffic trends, and engagement with un-gated content, proving the ROI of these "unseen" activities.

In this short yet powerful Five-Minute Quickie episode, we're diving into a question that could seriously supercharge your personal development journey: "How often do you check your progress—and why?" Cloughie explores the sweet spot between over-checking (hello, obsession and lost motivation!) and under-checking (hello, complacency and drifting off-course). Whether it's your personal goals, weight, mindset, career, or even podcast stats, finding your ideal review rhythm is the key to staying on track, boosting motivation, and making real progress. You'll learn: Why too much checking can destroy momentum Why not checking enough can cost you time and energy The hidden fears behind your review habits (fear of failure or fear of success?) A simple mindset shift to help you course-correct without self-judgment How to schedule reviews that actually work for you

Shippers are playing it safe. The economy's uncertain, so shippers are nervous about making big changes and have tight budgets. Cold calls are a dead end. People just aren't picking up their phones anymore, so that old-school sales method isn't working like it used to. Be a specialist, not a generalist. To win business, you have to be super clear about what you do, and then become the go-to expert in a specific market. Use challenges as fuel. Instead of letting tough times get you down, use them as motivation to push forward. Your mindset is everything. Winning in a tough market starts with having the right attitude. You have to believe in yourself and your ability to overcome rejection. Work hard and be patient. Success isn't a quick fix. It's about taking consistent, smart actions and having the patience to see them through. Take charge of your situation. Stop just trying to survive. Take ownership of your challenges and start building the habits that will lead to positive change.
