Podcasts about Mapping

Rob Walling is a godfather of the bootstrapped SaaS movement — he's started 6 companies (5 bootstrapped), built and sold Drip for 8 figures, and created the infrastructure behind MicroConf, TinySeed (which has raised nearly $60 million and invested in over 210 SaaS companies), and Startups for the Rest of Us (820+ episodes over 15 years). But here's what surprised me: Rob told me he's more of a creator these days than a software founder. The guy who built and sold an email marketing platform now gets his dopamine from podcasting, writing books, and making YouTube videos. And his experience on both sides gives him a perspective on the vibe coding trend that I think every creator needs to hear. In this episode, we get into the actual mechanics of how Rob runs his business — the team of 11 people, the $100,000-$120,000 monthly payroll, the four brands he wishes were two. We talk about how he eliminated stress from his life through therapy, hiring owner-level thinkers, and handing the project management to someone else entirely. And we have a real conversation about why vibe coding a SaaS product is probably not the opportunity you think it is — even if you have a big audience. This is part 1 of a 2-part episode; part 2 lives on Rob's podcast, Startups for the Rest of Us. → Rob Walling on Twitter/X → Rob Walling's YouTube Channel → Startups for the Rest of Us (Podcast) → MicroConf → TinySeed → Drip (Rob's 8-figure exit) → SavvyCal (co-founded by Derek Reimer) Full transcript and show notes *** TIMESTAMPS (00:24) Introduction — why Rob Walling is a unicorn in the bootstrapped SaaS world (02:40) Mapping the full Rob Walling business ecosystem: podcast, MicroConf, TinySeed, books, YouTube (05:15) How Producer Ron keeps the trains running on time across four brands (06:44) Inside the team of 11: roles, full-time commitment, and why Rob stopped hiring part-time (07:53) The psychology of making your first full-time hire (and Rob's 8-year wait for MicroConf) (09:33) Moving from task-level to project-level to owner-level thinkers (10:27) Four brands, two LLCs — the insurance story behind the split and why Rob wants to consolidate (12:18) Why Rob doesn't want his name on everything (and the legacy question) (14:41) Identity shifts: from SaaS founder to serial entrepreneur to content creator (16:31) The vibe coding reality check: why building SaaS is 10x harder than creating content (19:09) Why SaaS churn makes recurring revenue harder than it looks for creators (21:04) The construction analogy: tool sheds vs. skyscrapers and where vibe coding breaks down (24:53) Data from 234 investments: only 10-15% of successful SaaS companies lack a technical founder (27:00) The bigger opportunity for creators: equity partnerships instead of vibe coding (29:00) 'Build your network, not your audience' — why audiences plateau for SaaS growth (31:53) A week in Rob's life: deep work Mondays, advising Wednesdays, and the 329 TinySeed founders (34:00) How Rob eliminated stress: therapy, delegation, and giving up project management (38:46) Hiring for high-functioning: screening for 'Producer Ron'-level operators (41:21) The positive tension of deadline stress and why containers make you ship (43:09) Post-exit motivation: 6 months of comic books, guitar, and getting bored into purpose *** RECOMMENDED NEXT EPISODE → ⁠#291: 48 Hours With Clawdbot: How I'm Using It and Initial Reactions *** ASK CREATOR SCIENCE → Submit your question here *** WHEN YOU'RE READY

Dr. Mario Senden is an assistant professor in the Department of Cognitive Neuroscience at Maastricht University in the Netherlands, where he has spent his entire academic career. He received his bachelor's in psychology in 2009 and his PhD in cognitive computational neuroscience in 2016, both from Maastricht. A pioneer in biophysics-aware deep learning, Mario is known for his work on how large-scale brain networks support communication, integration, and perception. His research spans mesoscale laminar microcircuits to the macro-scale connectome, and his functional whole-brain modeling framework combines large-scale anatomical structure with local dynamics and goal-driven computation — asking not just whether a dynamical regime is biologically plausible, but whether it actually supports perceptual and cognitive function.In this episode, Peter and Mario explore the cutting edge of computational neuroscience and whole-brain modeling. They discuss Mario's influential work on rich club networks, which showed how highly connected cortical hubs dynamically gate information flow during tasks, as well as the principles behind oscillatory behavior in neural systems. A central focus of the conversation is Mario's most recent paper, "The Evolving Landscape of Neuroscience," submitted to Aperture Neuro — a sweeping meta-scientific analysis of roughly half a million neuroscience articles published between 1999 and 2023. Using text embeddings, semantic clustering, and large language models, Mario mapped the structural organization of the field and identified emerging trends and future directions. The conversation also touches on the promise of interdisciplinary approaches, the growing role of AI tools in neuroscience research, and the broader challenge of integrating theories and data across scales and domains to truly understand the brain.We hope you enjoy this episode!Chapters:00:00 - Introduction to Dr. Mario Senden05:11 - Journey from Psychology to Computational Neuroscience10:01 - Understanding Cognitive Computational Neuroscience14:09 - Limits of Current Models in Cognitive Computational Neuroscience20:44 - Exploring the Rich Club Concept in Brain Networks29:22 - The Interplay of Cortex and Subcortex42:44 - Oscillatory Behavior and Network Coordination48:41 - Multi-Scale Modeling in Neuroscience57:49 - Exploring the Evolving Landscape of Neuroscience01:21:08 - Advice for Young ScientistsWorks mentioned:42:19 - Senden et al.

Brian sits down with Steve of Steve Searches to talk Bigfoot research, drone mapping, and going solo in the wild. Steve traces his fascination back to the Patterson–Gimlin film and The Legend of Boggy Creek, plus years of solo camping on a Montana farm. After military service, he built a career in drafting and mapmaking—eventually integrating drones into terrain mapping, a skill he now uses in Sasquatch research.Midway through the episode, Brian pauses to provide a detailed update on the disappearance of Kyron Horman (June 4, 2010, Skyline Elementary, Portland). He outlines the timeline, investigative shifts, focus on stepmother Terri Horman, reported inconsistencies, and alleged murder-for-hire claims. With renewed review efforts under a new DA in 2025—including digitization and planned FBI Behavioral Analysis Unit involvement—the case remains open. A $50,000 reward is still being offered for credible information.Back in the forest, Steve shares experiences from Gifford Pinchot National Forest and Mount St. Helens, including a 2008 incident near Ape Cave involving sudden silence and a strong animal odor. Around 2020–2021, he connected with regional researchers, began pro bono drone work, attended Squatch festivals, and launched Steve Searches (YouTube, Facebook, and blog) in 2023. He's since collaborated with Michelle Heaton, the Sweet Home Oregon Sasquatch Research Group, and Sasquatch Highway.Steve describes his evidence-first approach—mapping, measuring, documenting, and presenting findings without firm conclusions—while remaining open to high-strangeness elements. He also discusses solo field safety and recounts intense 2023–2024 encounters, including loud rock clacks, nighttime footsteps around his tent, and a large limb crashing across a road as he packed up—an event that ended the trip.Find Steve at Steve Searches (YouTube & Facebook), stevesearches.com, and his new project Planet Sasquatch, a developing hub for gear reviews and shared field techniques.Email BrianGet Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

This week on the Hemp Show, we widen the lens. Hemp is more than a crop — it's part of a larger material system that connects farms, forests, manufacturers, builders and cities. Architect and urban researcher Kaja Kühl joins the podcast to explain why she calls hemp and straw "indicator species" — materials that signal the health of a regional building ecosystem. Through her Bio-Based Materials & Construction Resources Map, she has been documenting the farms, processors and builders already working across the Northeast. In this conversation, we explore what it would take to scale regenerative construction from rural landscapes into dense urban markets — and why regional supply chains may matter more than centralized industrial models. We discuss: • Hempcrete as a carbon-storing wall system • Why moisture regulation and indoor air quality may be hemp's most overlooked strengths • Straw panel manufacturing and collaborative scaling models • The advantages — and challenges — of building in a dense Northeastern region • Housing as long-term carbon storage infrastructure Kühl also reflects on building two carbon-zero hemp homes in New York's Hudson Valley and what she learned working alongside early-stage material startups. As federal climate policy shifts, atmospheric carbon does not. If emissions oversight weakens, land-based carbon strategies — including fiber crops like hemp — only grow more consequential. This episode situates hemp inside a broader conversation about how we build, where materials come from and how regional economies can store carbon in the walls around us.

Simon Dixon is a geopolitical analyst, Bitcoin OG, and entrepreneur, formerly an investment banker. In this conversation, Simon does a deep dive into the real architecture of power shaping our world, unpacking how financial, military, and technological power structures intersect, and why incentives drive global decisions. From his early days in traditional finance to his journey into Bitcoin, Simon shares what he learned about how money is created, how influence is exercised, how power compromises, and why many leaders operate within larger systems they don't fully control. We explore the difference between reforming the system and exiting it, the role of sovereignty, sovereign wealth and debt, how media and markets shape narratives, and why Simon sees Bitcoin and self-custody as tools for individual sovereignty. This is a wide-ranging discussion about power, truth, responsibility, and the practical paths toward greater independence in a highly controlled, corrupted world.→ Please like, comment, share & follow — to help me beat the suppressing algo's.

Brian and Kristen return after completing their homework: mapping their recurring conflict pattern step-by-step. And something shifts. Instead of focusing on who's right, they begin identifying when the pattern starts, how it escalates, and where they might choose something different. They talk about having a “good week,” more laughter, and fewer misunderstandings—but Zach presses deeper: Was it luck, or was it intentional? What unfolds is a layered conversation about stress, chronic pain, medication changes, PMS, defensiveness, and the powerful internal story Brian carries that says, “If there's a problem, it must be me.” Zach helps them connect the dots between depression's lies, physiological stress, and how quickly neutral requests can turn into personal threat. The couple names their 10-step pattern openly—fight or flight, overthinking, mounting a defense, physical withdrawal—and begins experimenting with something new: interrupting the script before it reaches step six. This episode isn't about resolution. It's about pattern awareness and learning how to redirect before old muscle memory takes over. They close by identifying the next layer to explore in Episode 3: their over-functioner / under-functioner dynamic—and how it triggers deeper family-of-origin wounds. Key Takeaways A “good week” is often intentional, not accidental Externalizing the problem (“us vs. the schedule”) strengthens the team Physiological stress (sleep, pain, hormones, meds) directly impacts conflict Depression distorts perception and reinforces “I'm the problem” narratives Defensiveness often protects something deeply valuable Mapping a conflict pattern creates space for choice Interrupting the script—even once—builds momentum Repair matters more than resolution “Something new” is the antidote to “more of the same” Learn more about your ad choices.

Inside this transmission, I share: Why the Fire Horse calls you out (and how agitation becomes direction) The difference between faith and passivity dressed as spirituality The balance of feminine receiving with masculine commitment and action My four leadership phases: Awakening → Integration → Execution → Stewardship Why Phase 3 (Execution) requires you to hold pressure without collapsing Why Phase 4 (Stewardship) is about carrying the flame and building environments where others evolve Writing prompts and live sharing that reveal what your own year is asking of you (and some shares have been removed to honour the person's deep vulnerability) If you've been preparing for years… if you've been devoted… if you've been becoming… this is the moment the Fire Horse points to: Stop incubating. Start delivering.

#400 In this episode, Guy interviewed astrologer Jeff Harman, who has studied astrology since 1975 and described his path from early skepticism to deep involvement with ancient, translated astrological and spiritual texts and Vedic Jyotisha, which he calls the "science of the light of the soul." Jeff explained key concepts such as tropical vs sidereal astrology, the precession of the equinoxes, and the idea that birth (first breath) "locks in" a chart that releases patterns over time through progressions, transits, and dashas, with Saturn framed as a timekeeper and "funnel into time and space." He presented a cosmology of multiple levels of creation, discusses consciousness as not localized to the brain (referencing near-death and out-of-body experiences), and described the lower emotional mind as an attenuator that can be transcended through spiritual practice while also mentioning pineal calcification and various environmental factors he believes dampen perception. Jeff conducted an on-air Vedic reading of Guy's chart, stating major life shifts around 2015–2018 and 2021 onward, discussing family dynamics (including his father's death in 2012), and predicting future timing themes such as further boosts in 2024 and a significant change around 2029, while emphasizing that astrology describes conditions and vectors rather than removing free will. The conversation closed with Jeff describing his services (personal and corporate electional work), defending astrology as a practical tool for informed decisions, and sharing examples from clients and podcasts involving disability after vaccination and nonverbal/autistic communication, with both agreeing to do a future episode. About Jeff: Jeff Harman is a world-renowned, second generation master astrologer, spiritual researcher and paranormal investigator, deeply versed in ancient and traditional systems. Known for working with everyday seekers, public figures and celebrities for 50 years. Jeff's unique interpretation of ancient astrology brings clarity, direction and understanding.  We are all souls on a unique journey.  Ancient astrology exposes what's unseen, answering life's biggest questions, and turning uncertainty and confusion into direction.

"If you say something over and over often and enough, it becomes true because perception is reality."  Paul O'Callaghan has built a career at the intersection of water science, wastewater realities, and the practical question every operator and executive eventually faces; what actually moves innovation from idea to adoption.  As Founder and CEO of BlueTech Research, Paul explains how his team helps decision-makers put capital to work more efficiently in water by reducing uncertainty and separating signal from noise. He describes patterns he's watched repeat across water entrepreneurs, pilots, and product market fit, and why "innovation" often breaks down simply because utilities, investors, and founders are using the same word to mean different things.    Capital, fit, and the language gap Paul unpacks what it takes to align an investor's expectations with a technology's true pathway to scale. He contrasts different "types" of innovation and why matching the right investor, entrepreneur, market, and timeline matters as much as the technology itself. The conversation also highlights why solving a problem someone has today is often a safer starting point than betting everything on a problem that might arrive tomorrow.  Regulations as a driver and a risk  Regulation matters in water and wastewater, but Paul cautions against building an entire business on the hope that rules will create a market on schedule. He walks through timing risk, enforcement uncertainty, and why tracking policy momentum matters as much as tracking the text of the regulation itself. He also notes a shift toward more "aspirational" regulation focused on reuse, regeneration, and systems-level outcomes.  Storytelling that changes adoption  From Brave Blue World to Our Blue World, Paul shares what he learned about making water personal and compelling without reducing it to doom-and-gloom narratives. The stories he tells connect to a core professional challenge: technologies enable outcomes, but adoption accelerates when people can see and want the "better" future those outcomes create.  Listen to the full conversation above.

Harrison Rose co-founded Paddle, one of the UK's standout B2B billing and payments companies. Now he is building GoodFit, a go to market platform helping teams prioritise the right accounts, at the right time, with the right data.In this episode, Harrison breaks down a simple idea most teams still get wrong: before you buy another shiny GTM tool, make sure you are actually selling to qualified customers. He shares how Paddle approached go to market from first principles, why the “execution layer” has exploded (16,000 tools and counting), and why fundamentals like market mapping and qualification still matter most.We also get into what he learned on a 10-year unicorn journey, the reality of hard days (including the moment Paddle's whole sales team quit), and what motivates him second time around when failure is no longer existential.

What can the behavior of primates teach us about how humans think, learn, and navigate the world? In this episode, Dr. Francine Dolins, Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University of Michigan–Dearborn, joins us to explore how studying animal cognition reveals powerful insights into the origins of human intelligence, decision-making, and social behavior. With a Ph.D. in Cognitive Psychology and Behavioral Primatology from the University of Stirling and field experience studying lemurs, tamarins, and other primates across Madagascar, Costa Rica, and Peru, Dr. Dolins brings a unique perspective that blends ecology, psychology, and evolutionary science. Her work examines how primates understand space, form mental maps, and make complex choices in both natural environments and controlled research settings. In this episode, we explore: ·       How virtual reality is being used to study cognition in apes ·       The ways primates use landmarks and mental mapping to navigate their environments ·       What animal navigation reveals about the evolution of human intelligence and cooperation ·       How comparative psychology helps us better understand social behavior and decision-making Dr. Dolins collaborates with researchers around the world, combining fieldwork, technology, and behavioral science to support conservation, animal welfare, and education. If you're curious about how studying our closest relatives can help us better understand the human mind, this conversation offers fascinating insights into the science behind cognition and behavior.

If you're creating a dozen LinkedIn clips, X posts, blog articles, and email newsletters from every podcast episode because you can, this episode will change how you think about repurposing forever. In this solo episode of Pipe Dream, host Jason Bradwell breaks down why most B2B teams get content atomisation completely wrong and what to do instead. Jason's core point is clear: just because you can create 50 things from one piece of content doesn't mean you should. The real problem isn't lack of effort, it's creating a little bit of everything instead of focusing on the few assets that actually move prospects through the buyer journey. Most teams are building redundancy, not results. The appeal of content repurposing is obvious. You record one 60-minute podcast episode and suddenly you can create clips for LinkedIn, X, Instagram, blog posts, newsletters, listicles for SEO, and ads. At the end, you've got 50 things from one episode. Sounds amazing, right? But that mindset creates massive redundancy because you're not asking the critical question: should you actually create all of this? Can you create clips for X? Sure. But are your customers actually on X? Only three people subscribe to your newsletter, so why spend the time turning this into an email? What B2B Better does instead is map the content they create from one flagship piece against the buyer journey, specifically the stages of buyer awareness: unaware, problem aware, solution aware, and product aware. When you map these stages on a grid, you can identify how to plug each gap using different distribution channels. Take the unaware stage. There's a subset of your target audience that's unaware a massive problem is facing them. How do you reach them? B2B Better typically suggests running ads on platforms like LinkedIn or Google using content from your podcast that educates them about the problem. But you can't just hope that content naturally comes out of your recording. You need to script for it ahead of time. If you're running a guest-based podcast, ask questions that evoke answers and perspectives that educate unaware customers about the problem they're facing. Now flip to the product aware stage. These are people who know about the problem and solutions available, but don't have enough trust in your product to pull the trigger. For this stage, interview your existing customers and have them talk about their experiences using your product or service. Then turn that content into something your sales team can use to hit leads who have already demonstrated interest in your business. This is the tipping point that moves them from uncertainty to actually picking up the phone. This exercise of mapping different content types to different stages of buyer awareness is incredibly useful in evaluating not what content you could create, but what content you should create that's actually going to move people from podcast to pipeline. If this is an exercise you're interested in learning more about and you'd like B2B Better to run it with you, drop them an email or message using the details in the show notes.

What if doctors and medical professionals, highly trained to identify child maltreatment through bruises and fractures, miss many injuries in children that leave no visible marks, yet are biologically and developmentally formative in ways that shape a child's entire quality of life and health?In this episode of Partnered with a Survivor, David and Ruth Mandel sit down with Dr. Norell Rosado, a child abuse pediatrician at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, to examine how child maltreatment is currently identified in medical settings and where that approach falls dangerously short. We discuss how we can assist medical practitioners to better assess for child abuse injuries and danger that may not be seen, by using a pattern based rather than an incident based approach. Dr. Rosado explains that bruises and fractures remain the primary lens through which child physical abuse is identified, even though neglect is the most common form of maltreatment and many serious injuries leave no visible marks. Together, we explore how this narrow focus combined with time pressure, fear of court involvement, and lack of behavioral training creates gaps that allows for harm to go unseen by professionals. The conversation moves beyond bruise and bone based injuries to patterns which may help uncover silent injuries and invisible abuse. We unpack how domestic abuse and coercive control interfere with children's health in ways pediatric care often misses, including limbic harm, developmental delays, failure to thrive. We discuss perpetrator patterns like,  disrupting therapy and medication adherence, restricting access to food, heat, or transportation, and undermining a protective parent's ability to follow medical guidance or maintain safe housing. We ask the critical question rarely built into clinical practice: Is anyone interfering with this child's care or this parent's ability to parent safely?Dr. Rosado speaks candidly about mandated reporting, reasonable suspicion, and the anxieties clinicians face, especially when they have long-standing relationships with families. He also highlights the role of bias and why simple, consistent protocols can help clinicians ask better questions, reduce inequities, and document patterns rather than isolated incidents.We dig into the science behind what clinicians are seeing but often cannot name. From traumatic brain injuries without bruising to emerging research on epigenetics, the episode makes clear that exposure to violence can alter gene expression, increasing lifelong risk for chronic disease, disability, and early death. Child maltreatment, we argue, is not just a clinical concern. It is a multigenerational public health emergency.Throughout the conversation, we empSend a text Now available!

Sitting among the ruins near the Terme di Caracalla, with ancient stones underfoot and Roman roads radiating outward beneath us, I spoke with Tom Brughmans, an archaeologist whose work is reshaping how we understand movement, connection, food, and daily life in the ancient Roman world. Tom is the director of an ambitious international research project that has produced the first spatially detailed digital atlas of the Roman road system. Not just the famous roads, and not just Italy, but the entire Roman Empire—stretching across Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East. These are the roads people actually used, reconstructed through years of careful scholarship and made visible in a way that has never existed before.

Understanding the True Landscape of Community Services United Way Northern Shenandoah Valley is tackling one of the region's most persistent questions: Are there too many nonprofits, and do they overlap in their services? To find definitive answers, CEO Andy Gail announced a comprehensive regional nonprofit survey during a recent episode of The Valley Today with host Janet Michael. "We've heard so many people from elected officials to community members say, 'Oh, there's so many nonprofits. There's a bunch of overlap,'" Andy explains. "We said, let's actually get the data and provide real answers instead of conjecture." Beyond the Numbers: What the Survey Reveals The survey goes far deeper than simply counting organizations. Instead, it captures critical details about each nonprofit's operations, including their specific programs, service areas, collaboration efforts, and capacity challenges. Participating organizations answer questions about which populations they serve, whether they're meeting current demand, how many people sit on waiting lists, and crucially, what services they believe are missing in the region. Moreover, the survey asks nonprofits to identify their biggest challenges and common misconceptions about their work. Early responses already reveal telling patterns: funding remains the top concern, with organizations citing high food costs, rising demands, and aging volunteer bases as significant obstacles. A 21-Minute Investment with Lasting Impact While Andy initially worried the survey might take up to an hour, data shows nonprofits complete it in an average of 21 minutes and 47 seconds. The survey accommodates organizations with multiple programs, allowing them to detail up to five programs with specific information about each one. Furthermore, United Way has made the process as accessible as possible. Organizations can access the survey through the United Way NSV website, and Andy's team is reaching out through multiple channels—including chambers of commerce, email blasts, and social media—to ensure every nonprofit in Winchester, Frederick, Clarke, Warren, Shenandoah, and Page counties has the opportunity to participate. Collaboration Over Competition Contrary to popular belief, local nonprofits aren't fighting for territory. Instead, they're increasingly working together to maximize their impact. Andy highlights several successful partnerships that emerged simply from United Way facilitating introductions between organizations doing similar work. "There's this misconception that we're all competing," he notes. "While in some cases, yeah, you are competing for grants, you're competing for visibility, it's really not that way. No one is out to get anyone." For example, Winchester CCAP recently received United Way's largest grant—$50,000—and has since expanded to seven collaborative partners, all working together to provide fresh fruits and vegetables to food-insecure residents. Similarly, organizations serving individuals with intellectual disabilities in Shenandoah County have formalized an alliance after United Way connected them, positioning themselves to pursue larger regional funding opportunities. Dispelling the Overlap Myth When people claim there are "too many" nonprofits, they often misunderstand what that number represents. Andy clarifies that while the IRS lists over 400 tax-exempt organizations in Winchester alone, these include various categories beyond traditional human service nonprofits. "A 501(c)(3) is what we're talking about—organizations eligible for tax-deductible charitable donations," he explains. "But there are also 501(c)(4) advocacy groups, (c)(6) chambers of commerce, (c)(7) recreational clubs like Little League teams. When you filter down to human services organizations actually serving our local community, the picture looks very different." Additionally, even among similar services, nonprofits often serve distinct needs. Food pantries, for instance, may appear redundant until you consider that some operate as drive-throughs while others accommodate walk-up clients, some distribute in mornings while others serve evening hours for working families. These organizations increasingly coordinate to ensure they're complementing rather than duplicating each other's efforts. The Funding Reality One critical misconception the survey will help address concerns nonprofit funding sources. Many community members assume local nonprofits receive substantial government support, but the reality tells a different story. "City of Winchester used to give out local funding but stopped that program back in 2016, 2017, 2018," Andy reveals. "The county still gives a little, but when federal funding cuts happened recently, we lost over $2 million from our local nonprofit space. The localities simply can't make that up—the city would have to raise taxes through the roof." Consequently, local nonprofits rely heavily on private philanthropy and strategic partnerships to stretch every dollar. United Way itself demonstrates this efficiency: every dollar invested now generates $1.77 in community impact through their grants and collaborative initiatives. Andy's goal is to reach a 2:1 return by fostering even more collaboration. Building a Living Resource Guide The survey data will serve multiple purposes beyond answering the overlap question. First, United Way will create an updated public-facing resource guide, replacing their 2022 printed version with a searchable online database. Second, they'll share the information with Virginia 211, the statewide resource navigation hub, ensuring residents can easily find help when they need it. Third, and perhaps most importantly, the data will inform community leaders, funders, and elected officials about actual service gaps and needs. When nonprofits—the organizations on the front lines—identify missing services or insufficient capacity, their insights carry significant weight. "They're the ones dealing with people," Janet emphasizes. "If you've not been in one of those situations, you don't really know what they may need at any point in that journey." A Call to Action United Way is accepting survey responses throughout February, with plans to analyze the data in March and release a comprehensive community report in the second quarter of 2025. Nonprofit leaders, board members, and volunteers can access the survey at unitedwaynsv.org or by contacting the organization directly at info@unitedwaynsv.org or 540-536-1610. As the region faces a frigid winter weekend, Janet offers a practical suggestion: "What better way to spend it? Spend 20 minutes of your time filling out a survey." Ultimately, this initiative represents more than data collection. It's an investment in understanding and strengthening the safety net that supports the Valley's most vulnerable residents. By mapping the nonprofit landscape with precision, United Way aims to foster collaboration, eliminate inefficiencies, and ensure every dollar donated creates maximum impact in the community.

Surveying fundamentals can quietly make or break a drone mapping project—and grid vs. ground coordinates are one of those topics that trip people up more often than they expect. In this episode of Your Drone Questions. Answered the conversation zooms in on the essentials every drone pilot working with mapping, surveying, or lidar data needs to understand.The discussion is joined by Mark White from Duncan-Parnell, a licensed land surveyor with decades of experience in geospatial training and support. Together, they break down what grid and ground coordinates actually mean, why GPS measurements don't live on the same “surface” we work on in the real world, and how scale factors quietly affect distances, areas, and deliverables.You'll hear clear explanations of state plane systems, ellipsoids, and why mapping on a flat grid is convenient—but not always representative of true ground distances. The episode also tackles site calibration (sometimes called localization), how it works behind the scenes, and why it's often the key to making drone data line up correctly with survey control.Useful links:-TBC Power Hour Defining and Working with Grid and Ground Coordinates (16:09 mark is where the graphic referenced in the podcast is discussed): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3SzLtNWa7E -GNSS Site Calibrations in Trimble Access – Everything You Need to Know | Survey Matters (first 2.5 minutes in particular): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5fwa2tGgVAhttps://www.youtube.com/@duncanparnellgeospatialhttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLhkUv995xbiWXc9Vz2oGD7jdBD2O1wunKhttps://www.duncan-parnell.com/

Cem Karsan sits down with Ben Hunt, founder of Epsilon Theory, to explore how narratives shape markets, politics, and decision making itself. Drawing on decades of experience across academia, hedge funds, and applied AI, Ben explains why stories, not data, increasingly drive outcomes in modern markets. The conversation spans unstructured data, inference, common knowledge, and the mechanics of narrative momentum. Together, they examine consumer expectations, inflation silence, geopolitical signaling, and the slow shift away from US dominance. What emerges is a framework for understanding markets as reflexive systems, where perception often matters more than reality.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Cem on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps: 00:00 - Introduction to U Got Options and the trading floor setting02:18 - Ben Hunt's background and Epsilon Theory origins04:11 - Markets as the ultimate multiplayer game06:15 - Inference, unstructured data, and narrative analysis08:18 - Why sentiment and word counts miss the real signal11:16 - Mapping meaning and truthy stories15:00 - LLMs as operating systems, not oracles18:01 - Giving money back and when models stop working21:16 - Applying narrative tools beyond markets24:10 - Consumer weakness versus bullish expectations30:43 - Inflation, recession, and why markets do not care33:29 - Dormant stories and volatility discovery34:26 -

In this episode, I sit down with David King—coach, author of Freedom Mapping, and a guy who's worked with orthodontists across the country to help them reclaim their clarity, purpose, and peace. And this isn't some vague “work-life balance” chat. We talk about the actual tools and frameworks that have helped high-performing orthodontists climb out of burnout, reconnect with their families, and rediscover why they got into this profession in the first place.From his early days as a management consultant to becoming the fittest man in Austin (at age 45!), David shares how he reached his own breaking point—and what he built in the aftermath: a four-domain framework that helps doctors take a brutally honest look at where they are now and where they actually want to go. If you've been grinding non-stop, but feeling stuck, frustrated, or even quietly drowning, this episode is for you.Quotes“There is no system, no process, no production goal that can overcome a doctor who's not on point—mentally, emotionally, spiritually.” — David King“Prep the number one asset—you. Because as you go, the practice follows.” — David KingKey TakeawaysIntro (00:00)David's backstory: consulting, coaching, and winning “Fittest Man in Austin” (00:23)Why burnout among orthodontists often goes unnoticed (04:23)The origin of Freedom Mapping and the 4 Domains: Body, Being, Balance, Business (06:00)The power of truth-telling: where you really are vs. where you want to be (07:55)How small lies we tell ourselves lead to chronic burnout (10:59)Systems vs. self: why perfect processes can't fix personal chaos (15:15)Signs your mental bandwidth is breaking (20:00)Why parents today are more burnt out—and less satisfied—than ever before (25:00)“Prep the asset”: how 3–5 minutes of intention can change your day (28:11)Why orthodontists must stop compromising their dreams out of guilt or fear (36:40)Additional ResourcesI've seen firsthand how easy it is for smart, successful orthodontists to lose themselves chasing growth, perfection, and shoulds. But here's the truth—your systems won't save you if you don't first take care of the person running them.

In this episode of Predictable B2B Success, Vinay Koshy interviews Laurier Mandin, founder and CEO of Graphos Product and author of "I Need That." Mandin draws on over 25 years of experience and more than 6,000 product launches to explain why some products achieve lasting success while others do not. He offers practical insights on how effective validation can transform product launches and highlights common mistakes businesses make in this process. The episode explores why innovative founders may hesitate to seek honest market feedback, the neuroscience behind B2B buying decisions, and the frameworks Laurier Mandin uses to reduce risk and create compelling offers. It also covers how to identify emotional triggers in enterprise procurement and leverage post-mortems on lost deals for continuous improvement. Listeners will learn how to distinguish between "nice-to-have" and "mission critical" features, avoid confirmation bias, and leverage AI disruption for competitive advantage.

As Trump surges his Gestapo and threatens to annex new territory, his brain is collapsing. He's sundowning on Truth Social, nodding off in meetings, slurring words, slurping at the saliva pooling in his mouth. His insults and aggressions are as constant and predictable as his arms are, reaching out for handholds. Up until this point, discourse on the mental health of this decrepit fascist leader has used the kid gloves of psychology, psychoanalysis, and psychiatry, in which even the most informed analyses were constrained by the fact that experts were interpreting his inner states. For our part, we've compared his fate to that of charismatic cult leaders at the end of the line—and we'll do more of that today. Now a new posse of clinical commentators on IG and TikTok have made it all much more biological: we are witnessing, they say, the predictable signs of fast-progressing dementia.

GUEST: Bob Zimmerman. SUMMARY: Zimmerman discusses a private initiative by Black Moon Energy to mine helium-3 on the moon for fusion fuel. He notes they have signed a deal with JPL to send a mapping rover, a venture made possible only because launch costs have dropped significantly enough to make space mining conceivable.1932
