In this mind-expanding episode of The Higher Standard, Chris and Saied take a detour from their usual financial deep dives to expose the sinister underbelly of human decision-making. Turns out, the economy isn't broken—our brains are. From Robert Shiller's Narrative Economics to Jonathan Haidt's The Anxious Generation, the duo unpacks how financial markets, political ideologies, and your everyday spending habits are more influenced by viral stories and social media hysteria than by any rational thought process. Long story, short: You're probably not making financial decisions—you're reacting to the subconscious cues planted in your head by algorithms, dopamine hits, and good old-fashioned tribalism.➡️ And just when you thought you were in control, they hit you with The Chaos Machine by Max Fisher, a book that details how social media isn't just ruining dinner-table conversations—it's actively rewiring your brain for extremism and anxiety. From doomscrolling mortgage rate headlines to being emotionally blackmailed into buying gold, Chris and Saied reveal that the only way to escape the manipulation matrix is to step back, slow down, and—dare we say—think. But hey, no pressure! If you'd rather stay plugged into the fear factory, there's always another viral headline waiting to tell you the economy is collapsing.

In a recent article in the Harvard Business Review, Kelsey Hansen writes about social media addiction as something that her younger self struggled with, even though at the time she didn't realize just how addicted she was becoming. She confesses to noticing that her attention span and mental capacity were suffering. She'd be working on her school assignments, but constantly and repeatedly interrupting her work, checking on her social media accounts. She cites Max Fisher's book on the designed addictiveness of social media, titled “the Chaos Machine: the Inside Story of How Social Media Rewired Our Minds and Our World”: Fisher talks about how social media platforms are designed to trigger a dopamine release in our brains. He writes, “Dopamine creates a positive association with whatever behaviors prompted its release, training you to repeat them.” This applies even to self-destructive behaviors. Parents, set borders and boundaries, and teach your kids to redeem their time.

President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke on Thursday, the first time since Israeli strikes killed seven aid workers with World Central Kitchen in Gaza. Biden reportedly told Netanyahu that an immediate ceasefire was necessary and seemed to condition future U.S. support on improved treatment of Gaza's civilians. Hours later, the White House said Israel agreed to open another border crossing into Gaza so more aid could get into the area. Crooked contributor Max Fisher explains the tonal shift happening in the White House right now and what we could expect to see going forward.Biden heads to Baltimore Friday to assess the damage to the collapsed Francis Scott Key Bridge. The wreckage has almost completely shut down the Port of Baltimore, which supports tens of thousands of jobs in the region. Baltimore's Democratic Mayor Brandon Scott talks about how the cleanup effort is going and what he hopes to show Biden during his visit.And in headlines: The centrist group No Labels ended its bid to field a 2024 presidential candidate, judges in Florida and Georgia slapped down separate efforts from former President Donald Trump to toss some of his criminal charges, and the first living person to ever receive a kidney transplant from a pig was able to head home after surgery.Show Notes:What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

How Facebook Became a Tool for Genocide in Myanmar In 2017, the Rohingya people in Myanmar faced a genocide brought on by Buddhist extremists and the military. But something else was fueling the violence, inciting people, and spreading hatred - Facebook and their algorithm was helping tear the country apart. Over 700,000 Rohingya people fled violence perpetrated by the military in their home country of Myanmar in 2017, seeking safety in neighboring Bangladesh. The majority of them continue to live, years later, in Kutupalong Refugee Camp. Since the beginning of this crisis, UNICEF has been working with the Bangladesh government and other partners to deliver relief to children and families living in the refugee camps and settlements and in neighboring host communities.

Industrial Opportunities: Where Are They?

Commercial Real Estate Investing From A-Z

Play Episode Listen Later Jul 20, 2023 15:52


Why is there an opportunity for online lead generation within commercial real estate? What are some areas that you can be investing in an industrial that are showing very good solid returns and low vacancy rates? Max Fisher, an industrial broker with BRD Realty, shares his knowledge. Read this entire episode here: https://bit.ly/3NZgu9M Where do you think there is an opportunity for investing in the industrial market right now? It's a tough time to invest in commercial real estate right now mostly because interest rates and the banking world are completely different and seller expectations are different today from one that where they were three years or two ago, but two deals that I've recently invested in, they're both land deals, and they're both infill sites. These are sites that are zoned industrial, but they also have the ability to build some retail. The first one was split up into four parcels to industrial and then to retail pads for drive-throughs or any other type of retail uses. So, one of those pads is in escrow now and the buyer has gone hard, that's done well. The other one, we bought for pretty cheap, because we bought it when the seller has it in escrow with the Self-Storage developer, and then the Self-Storage developer backed out. And then that was also during a time when the Fed kept raising rates in the economy seemed like it was going pretty well. So, I think like infill industrial land, and I'm also just a big believer in a Flex business park, small to medium bay, class B, class C type of industrial. Is industrial, being overbuilt right now? Where do you see the lease rates going? There are two different types of industrial products: small to medium bay and then there's the bigger assets. The small to medium space really hasn't been built so, I don't think it's being overbuilt. I think that there's a supply issue and even in some instances, these business parks are being demolished and redeveloped for mixed use or other types of uses. But I do think in the bigger base, maybe in some other markets, some bigger markets, where there's a lot of lands, and there's a lot of spec development, possibly being overbuilt, but I'm very confident in business parks, and I don't think they're being overbuilt, and that's fine, like Class B, Class C, industrial business parts. What are some of the things that we should keep in mind as property owners to make sure that we put on the lease and some things that are really non-negotiable with regards to industrial? Having space already clean and marketable for those prospects is most important. One of the things that we actually do is we know who that tenant wants more warehouse than an office. So, sometimes when a space comes available, and there's more office build-out, just demo it out before you even take it out to market. Another key thing for industrial is if there's some way that you can build some type of yar or industrial outdoor storage to complement that building, that's a great value add to a property, you can even get higher rates and take some unused land and just create some more income that way. Overall, just creating a space that's clean and marketable to your prospect with a mostly warehouse-less office is key.

If you ask Democrats why the US invaded Iraq in 2003, many will say that President George W. Bush cynically lied about weapons of mass destruction. Meanwhile, some Republicans will say that President Bush meant well, but had been led astray by faulty intelligence.  As we pass the 20th anniversary of the US invasion of Iraq, both of these narratives persist — and both distort the past, according to New York Times columnist Max Fisher. Fisher argues that the invasion was instead simply the natural unfolding of the neoconservative worldview. In this week's pod, we revisit his 2018 conversation with Brooke to unpack the hubris behind this worldview and examine how it grew from an esoteric, academic ideology into a force that still shapes American policies and minds today.
