On this episode of the Passive Income Playbook, Pascal Wagner interviews Ryan Duff, a former mortgage broker who spent 14 years underwriting loans before transitioning into LP investing. Ryan shares how his front-row seat in the lending world gave him a unique edge in identifying quality sponsors and structuring successful deals. He discusses the three core pillars of underwriting—borrower credit, asset performance, and market fundamentals—and why sponsor quality trumps everything in investment decisions. Ryan also breaks down how lending standards have tightened post-2021, what LPs should really be asking for in due diligence (hint: request the REO schedule), and how market dislocation is creating powerful opportunities for plugged-in investors.

On this episode of Beyond Multifamily, Amanda Cruise and Ash Patel interview Mike Kron, founder of Guardian Advisory, to discuss his launch of a $100 million private equity fund focused on single tenant net lease (STNL) retail assets. Mike shares why he believes now is a prime time to buy these Amazon-resistant properties due to the anticipated drop in interest rates and how his fund strategy leverages long lease terms, high-credit tenants, and minimal management overhead. He explains the 18% IRR projection, capital-raising tactics, and why he's prioritizing stability and investor-friendly structures over flashier value-add opportunities for Fund One. The conversation also touches on the future of retail, the return of bonus depreciation, and how institutional investors factor into his long-term exit strategy.

Many people assume that gut problems always show up as bloating, pain, or digestive distress — but that's far from the truth. In this episode, Tara explains why everyone who cares about their long-term health and longevity should be paying attention to their gut… even if they think their digestion is just fine. From fatigue and brain fog to anxiety, weight gain, autoimmune issues, and even fertility challenges — the gut often plays a bigger role than you might realize. Tara shares a real-life client case: a woman with zero gut symptoms whose stool test revealed significant bacterial imbalances that were quietly driving inflammation and impacting her health. You'll learn why markers like LPS (lipopolysaccharides) and butyrate are so important, how they connect to inflammation throughout the body, and why a truly comprehensive stool test is non-negotiable if you want real answers. Tara also explains why not all tests — and not all practitioners — are created equal, and how to ensure you're working with someone who understands the full complexity of the microbiome. Whether you're chasing down stubborn symptoms or simply want to stay vibrant and healthy for years to come, this episode will inspire you to make your gut a top priority. Tara explains that: Comprehensive stool testing is essential for everyone, not just those with digestive symptoms. This helps identify issues that may be quietly driving systemic inflammation. Markers like LPS (lipopolysaccharides) and butyrate on stool tests provide vital insights into the inflammatory state of your gut—and, by extension, your whole body. If your test doesn't measure these, you're missing valuable information. Imbalances (dysbiosis) can exist without gut symptoms and still drive conditions like fatigue, autoimmunity, and infertility. Understanding your unique microbiome can be truly game-changing for your health path.

In this episode, host Pete Moore sits down with Andrew Petcash—former college basketball player, venture capitalist, and one of LinkedIn's most insightful voices on the business of sports. Andrew shares his journey from building a massive NBA YouTube channel as a teenager to founding Profluence Capital, a sports-focused venture fund that connects founders, investors, and cutting-edge sports businesses. The conversation dives deep into Andrew's strategy for breaking down sports industry segments, sourcing valuable market data, and building authentic, action-oriented thought leadership (or, as Pete calls it, “action leadership!") He unpacks how his personal brand has become a powerful engine for attracting investment targets and shares why transparency in the investment process can spark even more opportunities in the ever-evolving sports landscape. Whether you're an entrepreneur, investor, or just interested in youth and collegiate sports—including the ripple effects of NIL—this episode gives you a behind-the-scenes look at how major trends are being identified, funded, and built from the ground up. Petcash also offers candid advice for aspiring investors about the best ways to get involved in early-stage sports deals. On their investment aproach, Petcash states, "Most of our companies have said we're their most helpful investor because we can also get them a lot of attention from our channels from a marketing lens. We also just have a huge network to get them more investment or to get them more customers or whatever." Key themes discussed Building credibility through content and thought leadership. Action-oriented investing in sports and health sectors. Market research and sizing sports investment opportunities. Navigating early-stage venture capital and due diligence. Challenges and opportunities of NIL in college sports. The value of networks and relationships in sports investing. A few key takeaways:  1. Content Creation as a Market Differentiator: Andrew leveraged his expertise in content creation to position himself as not just a thought leader, but an “action leader” in the sports and VC world. By sharing insights and market analysis on platforms like LinkedIn, he built trust, credibility, and created a network effect that brings founders and opportunities directly to him. 2. Unique Approach to Market Sizing and Research: Andrew highlights his process of identifying investment opportunities in sports—especially youth sports and the impact of NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) changes. He combines feedback from industry contacts, exclusive data access, and his own proprietary database, blending qualitative and quantitative insights not widely available elsewhere. 3. Innovative Venture Capital Model: Profluence goes beyond the typical VC approach. They split their portfolio between more predictable, linear investments (e.g., sports teams/events—what he calls “layer one” assets) and higher-upside venture bets. This aims to balance risk and ensure strong fund returns, even if only a few high-risk investments succeed. 4. The Value of Strategic Partnerships and Advisory Networks: Petcash also emphasized the importance of surrounding himself with subject matter experts and private equity partners as both LPs (limited partners) and advisors. This adds significant strategic value when evaluating deals and managing portfolio companies, helping Profluence "punch above its weight" in deal selection and support. 5. Advice to Investors-Use Funds Over Angel Investments: Both Pete and Andrew caution against direct angel investments into early-stage companies, unless you have professional oversight and industry-specific expertise. Instead, they recommend investing through established funds with strong governance and a relevant network—offering better diversification, professional vetting, and an increased chance of success.

Mike Maples Jr., the legendary co-founder of Floodgate and early backer of Twitter, Lyft, and Twitch, joined EUVC to deliver a masterclass in contrarian venture investing. His message to European GPs and LPs was clear: the biggest winners don't follow the rules — they break them.He not only challenged European venture capitalists to rethink their playbooks but also distilled years of hard-won wisdom into a framework he calls Inflection Theory, urging GPs and LPs alike to focus on pattern breakers instead of pattern matching.In typical fashion, Mike was sharp, candid, and even a bit irreverent, dropping truth bombs about everything from what makes a founder truly breakout to why fund size is a VC's destiny. This essay captures those key insights and explores what they mean for European investors who aspire to back the future's biggest winners.Mike Maples Jr. has never been one for incremental change. As our conversation revealed, he believes venture success comes from “changing the subject” entirely – defying conventional wisdom and waging “asymmetric warfare on the present”. European GPs and LPs tuning in were treated to a masterclass on identifying unreasonable founders who don't fit the mold, and why the usual check-the-box approach to startups misses the mark. From Inflection Theory and the anatomy of breakout founders to the transatlantic culture clash in tech, let's dive into Maples' playbook – and see how it challenges us all to up our game.

Jon Stone, Lonnie Pena and I sit down to chat about the inserts, posters and album covers of the Solo Beatles through the years.    Tune in as we chat about the visual side of LPs, our faavorites, and ... less so!

At EUVC Summit 2025, Hampus Jakobsson (Pale Blue Dot) didn't give a talk—he threw down a gauntlet.Forget polite panel chatter. This was part existential reckoning, part investor roast, and part Radiohead reference. It left the room laughing, nodding, and—if we're honest—slightly uncomfortable.Which was the point.“Venture is lending money to people believing one future. That's what I do at least.”2019: The Climate Fundraising GauntletHampus opened with a flashback to 2019, when fundraising for climate still meant fighting disbelief.“One third of LPs didn't believe in climate change. Another third didn't understand the business models. The rest were waiting for someone else to go first.”Fast forward to today, and while climate events are louder, many investors still hesitate.“The expected value of climate change is huge. So why are we still asking if there's upside?”Fossil Fuels vs. Electrons: Which Sounds Dumber?In classic Hampus form, he took aim at the status quo with punchy simplicity:“We burn things that explode to move forward. Or we could use electrons that fall from the sky for free. Which sounds smarter?”He skewered half-hearted circularity narratives and ESG buzzwords, pointing out the absurdity in how valuable materials (like titanium in aerospace) are wasted—literally thrown out next to cigarette butts.Radiohead, Trump & the Venture Job DescriptionAt one point, Hampus invoked a line from Radiohead:“If you're a plastic surgeon, you gotta know—gravity always wins.”Then added:“Sorry, Trump.”It was funny—but also cutting. The message was clear: You can deny physics and climate reality for a while, but eventually, gravity wins.How Venture Can Actually MatterHampus made one thing very clear: he's not in climate to feel good—he's in it to win.That means:Bigger roundsBigger companiesBigger exitsAnd fewer excuses“Let's stop pretending it's complicated. Let's raise, build, scale—and let's be less dumb.”

This year at the EUVC Summit Awards, Robin Klein was inducted into the Hall of Fame. Backed by HSBC Innovation Banking, the award celebrates a lifetime of impact—and Robin's legacy stands as a blueprint for what long-term conviction in European tech can look like.As Chris Adelsbach reminded us on stage, we're no longer an emerging ecosystem. We've grown up. And few have helped shape that growth more consistently, more humbly, and more powerfully than Robin.A Legacy That Began Before Venture Had a NameRobin's story doesn't begin with startups—it begins with family, migration, and belief.A century ago, his grandfather left Eastern Europe for South Africa. Years later, he handed over his life savings to a young engineer—Robin—to start a business. That first act of belief, Robin said, was venture capital before we had the word for it.From there, the journey spanned decades:→ Two companies built and exited.→ A pivot to angel investing in 1999.→ A front-row seat to the power law—and the human stories behind it.From Fledgling Angels to a $2B PlatformWhat followed was a fundamental reshaping of Europe's innovation landscape.Across LocalGlobe, Latitude, and Solar, Robin and his team have helped founders build not only unicorns—but also communities, movements, and ecosystems. They've backed science and inclusion, food banks and frontier tech, with LPs from both East and West. Today, their platform manages nearly $2 billion.And through it all, one belief has remained constant:Innovation and technology are forces for good—capable of delivering stellar returns to LPs, and positive change to society.A Call to Builders—And the FutureRobin closed by thanking his grandfather—the original backer—and his son and partner, who now help lead the next generation forward.His message to the room was clear:We have the talent, the universities, the engineers. We have the moment.The time is now.Thanks to the foundations we've laid— the best is still ahead.

Amanda shares updates on her summer, recent mobile home park acquisitions, and her experience transitioning to using private debt for deals—highlighting the increasing popularity of 10% fixed returns amid multifamily losses.

They dive into capital call backlash, investor psychology, and the inefficiencies of underwriting non-residential properties with AI.

We're back with another episode of Dig In or Delete, where Jim Pfeifer and Paul Shannon react to real investment pitches from their inbox and decide whether each one is worth a deeper look or should be deleted on the spot. This week's lineup includes a six-property self-storage deal in Arkansas, a triple-net Starbucks opportunity with a 4.5% cap, and a cash-out refinance pitch for a 68-unit apartment building. Jim and Paul break down the good, the bad, and the questionable, offering LP investors a candid look at how seasoned pros filter their deal flow. You'll hear how they evaluate everything from leverage and cap rate to operator communication and downside protection and why most pitches get deleted without a second thought. Key Takeaways: How experienced LPs quickly filter incoming investment pitches Red flags in deal presentations, underwriting, and language Why triple-net deals aren't always “passive” or low risk What makes storage look appealing—and what might be missing How debt structure and cash-out refinances affect risk profile Why sponsor transparency is often more important than returns What to ask before replying to a deal that lands in your inbox How to build your own “delete” filter to save time and protect capital Disclaimer The content of this podcast is for informational purposes only.

Is Access to Private Investments About to Change Forever? A new bill, the Equal Opportunity for All Investors Act of 2025, is making waves in Congress. Its promise? To open the doors of private investments, such as real estate, private equity, and venture capital, to a broader range of Americans by eliminating traditional accreditation standards. But does equal access truly mean equal risk? In this episode, Jeannette Friedrich breaks down what this bill really means for everyday investors, the potential benefits, and the serious risks that are not being discussed enough. Key Takeaways: What the Equal Opportunity for All Investors Act proposesUnderstand how the bill aims to replace income and net worth requirements with a knowledge-based test to expand access to private investments. Three reasons why this bill is being celebratedFrom democratising access to higher-yield investments, encouraging portfolio diversification beyond stocks, to fostering financial education. Why “equal access” might not mean equal impactThe financial risks for a high-net-worth investor are not the same as for a first-time or lower-net-worth investor. Jeannette explains the nuances. The rise of bad actors and fraud risksMore retail participation may attract scammers and opportunists. Learn why investor caution and due diligence will become even more critical. False sense of equality: The overlooked flaw in the billJeannette shares why both new and existing accredited investors should be held to the same financial literacy standards and why the bill currently misses this point. A call for broader regulatory scrutinyWhy regulation should not stop at LPs (passive investors) but should also address standards for General Partners (GPs) to ensure industry-wide investor protection.

On this episode of The Horizon, John discusses second quarter commercial real estate sales trends, with a deep dive into multifamily and retail activity. He explains why transaction velocity—rather than dollar volume—is a more reliable market indicator, especially in a period with large portfolio deals like Blackstone's Air Communities acquisition. John also breaks down cap rate trends using both average and hedonic metrics, noting that while some asset classes show downward cap rate pressure, much of it may stem from deal quality shifts. He wraps with a forward-looking view, expressing optimism for 2025 as a strong entry point for investors, citing steady interest rates, more deal flow, and favorable long-term tax policies.

On this episode of Multifamily Mastery, John Casmon interviews Chris Streit, a tax strategist and founder of CSAP, a firm specializing in cost segregation and the innovative 1245 exchange. Chris breaks down how cost segregation helps investors accelerate depreciation and unlock upfront cash savings, while the 1245 exchange mitigates depreciation recapture by revaluing personal property assets at the time of sale. He shares real-world case studies, including how one client saved $1.5M on a $36M multifamily deal. Chris also discusses often-overlooked tax strategies such as partial asset dispositions, proactive planning for property improvements, and how new legislation impacts bonus depreciation and energy efficiency credits.

How to tell the difference between greases? Mike, Paul, and Collen break it down, plus high lean of peak temps, breaking in an engine on an experimental, and composite airframe cracks. Email podcasts@aopa.org for a chance to be on the show. Join the world's largest aviation community at aopa.org/join Full episode notes below: Mark wants to make sure he's clear on which grease to use for which application. The manuals call for specific greases, but there are allowances for those with equivalent specs. But Mark wonders how to determine whether another grease is equivalent. Paul said you need to find the spec sheet for the grease the manufacturer recommends, and the spec sheet for the grease you're thinking of using to make sure they more or less match. He also mentions Hartzell's guidance that you can move up in grease numbers, but not down. Paul also cautions Cessna owners not to grease their flap tracks. They're not meant to be greased, although the rollers are supposed to be lubricated. Grease Options March 24 2022, David Prizio, Kitplanes:  https://www.kitplanes.com/grease-options/#:~:text=If%20your%20plane%20lives%20on,05%20and%20GN%2015%2C%20respectively   For a full grease cross reference chart: EMTC https://emtc.aero/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Mappe2.GREASE-XREF-1.pdf From the LPS product application guide: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://pdf.directindustry.com/pdf/lps-laboratories/application-guide/11942-89226.html&ved=2ahUKEwjYgbmQiIiOAxVHHTQIHS21OzQQFnoECB4QAQ&usg=AOvVaw0KD4UOmbKMMo-0_4cGPymS Todd has a 2008 Cessna 400 that he just took delivery of. The airframe around the windscreen has a few little cracks that look like spider cracks. He's read that there's been an issue with this area and he's wondering how much it matters. Paul said Todd is seeing cracks in the filler, and the expansion and contraction rate of it is different than the structure, which causes the cracks. Cessna apparently said back when it was built that they were working on a warranty repair for this area, but never did so.   David is wondering how to break in a new engine on a new experimental airplane he's building. He has the engine now pickled, waiting for the airplane to be finished. Colleen did some research and on the Van's forum someone posted a poll asking how people balanced engine break in. Some mentioned not doing the stalls on the initial flight, and they decided to prioritize the engine break in. Mike said high power ground runs are fine during break in. Low power or long idling can glaze the cylinders.   Jason is worried about his lean of peak temps on his B55 Baron. With the cowl flaps closed and a relatively warm day outside, he can't keep one of his cylinders below 400 degrees. He's done the Savvy flight test profile, and Savvy told him that the GAMI spread is acceptable and suggested checking the baffling. The first thing the hosts tell Jason to do is not compare the two engines. It's irrelevant data. They focus on the baffling, even though Jason's mechanic said it looks good. Paul said he's seen cases where the baffling is wavy, which requires a slit be cut so that it lays flat and incoming air flow pushes it against the surface next to it (usually the cowling). After taking a deeper look, the hosts also suggest swapping probes to see what happens.

Mary Helen claims that we are all celebrities in Bloomington. And yeah, she's got a point. But, c'mon, she is one of the few local celebrities who can claim that, on a regular basis, she goes into a home and leaves after another human has magically appeared. In this episode, we get to talk about one of our favorite subjects: screwing life up in your teens and twenties. We also discuss Russian literature, Led Zeppelin, the fight to legalize midwifery in Indiana, Tom Donahue of TD's CDs and LPs, and much more.

In this episode, Andreas Munk Holm sits down with Alexander Klyanitskiy and Valentina Zakirova, the founding partners of AdHoc Ventures, a brand-new fund laser-focused on what they call Human Interaction Tech.They explore why online communication, remote work, and AI are disrupting how we relate at work and in life, and why that opens a massive opportunity for a new kind of VC firm. With a track record of backing unicorns like Flo, Revolut, and Patreon, and institutional knowledge from Bain and SDV, the duo is now raising their first fund to scale this vision.We dive into how they define their category, the growing $150B+ market opportunity, their standout portfolio performance, and how their unfair advantages—from GTM playbooks to Tier 1 VC intros—create gravity with both founders and LPs.

On this episode of the Passive Income Playbook, Pascal Wagner interviews Tyler Krengle, Head of Asset Management at Rockfish Capital. Tyler walks us through his journey from helping grow the third-party management arm of Banyan Equity to building Rockfish's operations alongside a German sponsor. He dives deep into the dynamics of third-party vs. vertically integrated property management, the risks of misaligned incentives in management contracts, and the red flags LPs should watch for when evaluating deals. Tyler emphasizes the importance of early involvement from property management in underwriting, the nuances of construction oversight, and the often overlooked human elements that make operators truly successful.

From legal structure to fundraising strategy to LP negotiation tactics, she and Peter walk through the three common paths to fund launch (and which is the hardest), why some seed capital can come at a steep cost, and how new managers should think about anchor LPs, placement agents, and fund terms that will echo into fund two and fund three.Stephanie also shares inside-the-room stories on restrictive covenants, compensating service providers before a fund closes, and why being “too creative” in today's market can actually limit your LP base.
