Maya ‘Mayachka' Margolina https://mayachka.com/ talks about her work with luxury brands like Coach, Rihanna's Fenty, Mercedes Benz, and MCM and how she craft treatments that get her work. And she reveals her own struggle to avoid being derivative while acknowledging that everything is derivative, at least somehow. In this episode, Oren and Matt unpack how Maya's unique cinematic form gets audiences to perceive brands in ways they never imagined. You might call it bridging the gap between a brand and a part of you brain that's from a completely different galaxy. And though her unique perspective is mind-bending, much of her method is grounded in the same framework Matt and Oren have used in their comedy-focused work. You'll see similar beats with a familiar thought process and the same discovery call, but coming together in a completely different art form. And Maya discusses the details of working with movement directors and music supervisors as well as her interpretation of camera motion, pop culture memes, and getting the best performance from models and celebrities. Honest question. Are you someone who would never call something "hot"? Then this is the down to earth story of how to direct commercials for luxury brands that you've been wanting to hear!

Released just months after her death in 1970, Pearl captures both the wild, unfiltered energy and the heartbreaking vulnerability that made Janis a once-in-a-generation voice. We explore how she poured her soul into songs like “Cry Baby,” “Mercedes Benz,” and “Me and Bobby McGee,” crafting a record that feels both triumphant and tragically final.Support the showBrowse the 33/24 Archives: Check out the backroom!

In the heart of Beverly Hills, just after a red-carpet movie premiere, the life of Ronni Chasen, one of Hollywood's most connected and beloved publicists, came to a violent and mysterious end. On November 16, 2010, the 64-year-old was gunned down in her Mercedes-Benz while stopped at a red light. The shocking murder of the woman who helped secure Oscar Gold for films like Driving Miss Daisy and The Hurt Locker instantly made national headlines. Ronni's influential friends  quickly offered a combined $125,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. This massive reward signaled that her inner circle wasn't convinced the killing was a random act. A tip to America's Most Wanted led police to Harold Martin Smith, a man with a lengthy criminal record living in a rundown apartment complex. When confronted by detectives, Smith ended his own life with a .38 caliber revolver. The Beverly Hills Police Department officially closed the case in 2011, declaring Smith the sole killer and the motive of a random robbery gone wrong. However, this "solved" status remains highly controversial due to several glaring contradictions: Ronni's purse was untouched and nothing was taken, contradicting the robbery motive. Police claimed Smith was on a bicycle, but her autopsy report suggests an unknown vehicle pulled up beside her car. The ballistic evidence was inconclusive; documents revealed the findings were "insufficient for an identification" to definitively match the bullet to Smith's gun. Law enforcement was criticized for failing to interview multiple residents and for poor evidence collection.   Thank you to this week's sponsors!

This Day in Legal History: John Marshall Harlan DiesOn October 14, 1911, Supreme Court Justice John Marshall Harlan I died, closing the chapter on one of the Court's most powerful voices of dissent. Appointed in 1877 by President Rutherford B. Hayes, Harlan served for 34 years and left an indelible mark on constitutional law—not through majority opinions, but through unwavering dissents that often read as moral indictments of the Court's direction.Most famously, Harlan stood alone in Plessy v. Ferguson (1896), rejecting the Court's embrace of “separate but equal” and warning that the Constitution is “color-blind.” At a time when the legal system was ratifying segregation, Harlan insisted that racial classifications violated both the spirit and letter of the Fourteenth Amendment. His lone dissent—widely criticized at the time—would later become foundational to the Court's reversal in Brown v. Board of Education more than half a century later.But Harlan's commitment to constitutional principles extended beyond race. He defended civil liberties in United States v. E.C. Knight Co., supported expansive readings of the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Amendments, and warned against unchecked corporate power. His approach was rooted in a belief that the Reconstruction Amendments were designed not just to end slavery, but to secure full legal equality.Though his views often put him in the minority, time has proven Harlan prophetic. His jurisprudence helped shift the constitutional center of gravity in the 20th century, as future courts took up the causes he championed alone. Remarkably, his grandson, John Marshall Harlan II, would go on to sit on the Court as well, carving out his own legacy in cases like Katz v. United States and Reynolds v. Sims.Justice Harlan I's death marked the loss of a constitutional conscience—one that held firm against the tide of his era. His dissents remain a blueprint for principled judging, reminding us that sometimes the most enduring legal influence comes not from prevailing, but from refusing to go along.In a massive trial that began this week in London's High Court, over 1.6 million claimants are suing several major carmakers—including Mercedes-Benz, Ford, Nissan, Renault, Peugeot, and Citroën—over allegations that they used illegal “defeat devices” to cheat diesel emissions tests. The lawsuit, one of the largest in UK legal history, follows in the wake of Volkswagen's 2015 “dieselgate” scandal and targets vehicles manufactured between 2012 and 2017.Claimants argue that these manufacturers deliberately programmed cars to meet legal nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions standards only under lab testing, while on-the-road emissions were allegedly up to 12 times higher—harming the environment and misleading consumers. They seek compensation for what they claim was a systemic, industry-wide choice to cheat rather than comply with the law.The defendants deny any wrongdoing, rejecting comparisons to VW and maintaining that emissions systems are legally and justifiably calibrated to function differently under certain conditions for technical and safety reasons. A central point of contention is whether the sample vehicles in the case contain prohibited defeat devices.The trial currently focuses on 20 vehicles, but its outcome will set a precedent for nearly 850,000 claims and influence another 800,000 similar suits against other carmakers, including Vauxhall/Opel and BMW. The court's decision on liability is expected by mid-2026, with damages to be determined separately.Carmakers accused in huge UK lawsuits of cheating diesel emissions tests | ReutersVisa and Mastercard have agreed to a $199.5 million settlement to resolve a class action brought by merchants who alleged the companies colluded to shift fraud-related costs onto businesses. Filed in federal court in Brooklyn, the settlement—still awaiting judicial approval—stems from a lawsuit first initiated in 2016, challenging rule changes that made merchants liable for chargebacks when they hadn't upgraded to chip-enabled point-of-sale systems.The plaintiffs argued this policy shift violated antitrust laws, claiming Visa and Mastercard moved in parallel to implement changes that benefited the networks while leaving merchants exposed to fraud losses without any offsetting fee reductions. According to the proposed agreement, Visa will pay $119.7 million and Mastercard will contribute $79.8 million. Discover and American Express, also named in the litigation, previously agreed to a $32.2 million settlement.While all four companies deny wrongdoing, plaintiffs' lawyers praised the deal, saying it recovers around 13% of the best-case damages scenario and over half of a more conservative estimate. Mastercard stated the settlement supports its broader efforts to increase security through technological upgrades, while Visa and the plaintiffs' counsel did not comment.This case is separate from the larger $5 billion settlement Visa and Mastercard reached in 2019 over allegations of fixing credit and debit card fees.Visa, Mastercard agree to $199.5 million settlement in merchants' class action | ReutersFederal courts in California and Alabama recently fined two attorneys thousands of dollars for submitting legal filings that contained fake case citations generated by AI. These sanctions highlight a persistent problem: despite repeated warnings, some lawyers continue to rely uncritically on generative AI tools that produce fictitious case law, a phenomenon known as “hallucination.” Judges in both cases criticized the attorneys for failing to verify the AI-generated content, calling the misconduct more serious than simple oversight.In Alabama, Judge Terry F. Moorer imposed a $5,000 sanction on James A. Johnson, a court-appointed criminal defense attorney, who filed a motion containing fabricated citations. The judge noted that Johnson used a Microsoft Word plugin called Ghostwriter Legal and submitted the motion during a holiday weekend while caring for a relative, but emphasized that such explanations do not excuse the lack of basic diligence. Johnson must now disclose the sanctions order in all cases he handles for the next year, and his client—visibly upset in court—requested new counsel, delaying the case.In California, Judge Araceli Martínez-Olguín fined attorney Edward A. Quesada $1,000 after his civil filing contained at least three false citations. Quesada admitted he had run out of time and may have accidentally copied one fake citation from an AI-generated web summary. He was also ordered to complete a CLE course on responsible AI use, with the judge citing his failure to stay informed about relevant legal technologies as a violation of professional conduct rules.Fake AI Citations Produce Fines for California, Alabama LawyersIn my column for Bloomberg this week, I examine the property rights implications at the heart of Pung v. Isabella County, a case the US Supreme Court has agreed to hear. I argue that when the government seizes and sells property for unpaid taxes, “just compensation” shouldn't be defined by whatever price the property fetches at a government-run auction. That process—entirely designed and controlled by local officials—often prioritizes administrative efficiency over fair market value, turning tax sales into what I describe as “clearance rack” events.The problem is structural. Local treasurers are incentivized to close the books quickly rather than ensure former owners recover equity. That means the government may undersell a home, pay itself the back taxes, and call it a day—leaving the former owner uncompensated for the true value of what they lost. Worse, when courts treat the auction price as constitutionally adequate, they allow the taker to set the value of what it took.I draw a comparison to Tyler v. Hennepin County, where the Court ruled the government can't pocket surplus proceeds from a tax sale. Pung asks the natural follow-up: what rules apply when determining how much surplus exists? If courts accept fire-sale auction prices as “just compensation,” they effectively endorse an end-run around the Fifth Amendment.As a compromise, I propose a clear rule: auction prices should only be presumed fair if they fall within 10% of an appraised value. Outside that range, the burden should shift to the government to prove the sale was legitimate. After all, if local governments want the legitimacy of a market sale, they need to run a sale that looks like one. Otherwise, taxpayers are left holding the bag—punished not for failing to pay taxes, but for the government's indifference to recovering real value from their property. This is a public episode.

What happens when the future of teamwork collides with the power of AI? That's the question at the heart of this episode as Tiffany from Atlassian joins me from Barcelona during Team 25, where Atlassian is showcasing how AI-powered collaboration is redefining how work gets done. We talk about how Atlassian's mission to unleash the potential of every team is coming to life through its bold decisions, from sunsetting data center products to expanding its multi-cloud partnerships with Google. Tiffany offers a front-row view of how Atlassian's evolving cloud platform is designed to help customers work smarter while enabling secure, scalable innovation across some of the world's most complex enterprises. The conversation also uncovers the thinking behind the teamwork graph, Atlassian's powerful data intelligence layer that connects billions of work objects to create truly personalized AI experiences. Tiffany shares how companies like Royal Caribbean and Mercedes-Benz are already seeing measurable performance gains and how AI is becoming a real teammate that unifies knowledge, connects tools, and drives better outcomes. We discuss what it means to build a “system of work,” why flexibility and context matter, and how Atlassian's open approach allows teams to build custom systems tailored to their own culture and workflows. Beyond the technology, this is a story about continuous learning, adaptability, and human-centered progress. Tiffany's reflections on learning from the toughest customers, embracing change, and reimagining the browser as an active workspace reveal how Atlassian is blending AI with empathy and purpose. As AI becomes inseparable from teamwork, what steps will you take to unleash what your team can do next? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Um estudo recente do MIT revelou que 95% das empresas que investem em inteligência artificial não conseguem retorno sobre esse investimento. Para entender por que isso acontece, o Podcast Canaltech conversou com Marcos Santos, CEO e fundador da Aquarela Analytics. Na entrevista, Marcos destacou a diferença entre hype e aplicação real de IA, o papel da maturidade de dados nas organizações e o impacto da chamada “fricção” na hora de transformar provas de conceito em projetos corporativos. Ele também trouxe exemplos práticos de como companhias como Mercedes-Benz têm usado inteligência artificial para gerar economia e competitividade sem reduzir postos de trabalho.

Weclcome back to EV News Daily, and welcome to our new series where we go deep into one particular EV, called The Spec Sheet. And today it's the turn of the Mercedes-Benz GLC with EQ Technology—a vehicle that represents a significant jump forward for Stuttgart's approach to electric mobility. Unlike previous EQ models that carried distinct names and styling, this GLC shares its nameplate with the combustion-powered version while riding on an entirely different platform purpose-built for electric drive.  This marks Mercedes' previously announced departure from the standalone EQ brand identity toward a unified approach where electric and internal combustion variants coexist under familiar model names. Stay tuned to discover: ·       How Mercedes' new MB.EA platform architecture delivers both efficiency and performance ·       The technical innovations behind the GLC's 443-mile WLTP range capability ·       Why this model represents the centerpiece of Mercedes' largest product offensive in company history The GLC holds particular significance as Mercedes-Benz's global best-selling model. By electrifying this cornerstone SUV, the company is making a clear statement about its electric future while maintaining design continuity that existing customers will instantly recognize. And more importantly for a brand which saw pushback from S-Class and E-Class buyers towards the change in direction with the EQS and EQE respectively, Mercedes-Benz will hope this is an easier sell to their fans.

Alan Gregerman is the President and Chief Innovation Officer at VENTURE WORKS Inc, a consulting firm that helps organizations create innovative strategies, products, and services. He is a keynote speaker, award-winning author, and business consultant who helps companies and organizations unlock their teams' genius zones. For over 25 years, Alan has designed and delivered high-impact keynotes for organizations, including Google, Marriott, Verizon, Mercedes-Benz, Kaiser-Permanente, Citibank, and Lockheed Martin. In this episode… With the speed of innovation, businesses often fall into the trap of relying on what they already know. While past expertise can bring incremental improvements, it rarely sparks the kind of breakthroughs that transform industries. How can companies avoid getting stuck in the comfort of their knowledge and uncover fresh ideas to stay relevant? Innovation expert Alan Gregerman encourages brands to embrace enlightened ignorance, a mindset that values curiosity, humility, and openness to the unknown. Outsiders often disrupt industries because they see problems without being blinded by past experiences. Alan also emphasizes the importance of balancing iteration with innovation, continually raising the bar for customer expectations, and finding creative ways to differentiate in increasingly competitive markets. He pushes leaders to reevaluate their expertise and adopt a mindset of constant learning. In this episode of the Up Arrow Podcast, William Harris chats with Alan Gregerman, President and Chief Innovation Officer at VENTURE WORKS Inc, about how enlightened ignorance can catalyze innovation. Alan discusses why outsiders often spark breakthroughs, how businesses can balance iteration with bold innovation, and why raising customer expectations is crucial to long-term growth.

The new 2.5-liter F1 of 1954 raised the bar for engineering excellence and cost of entry to the pinnacle of motor racing. With Mercedes-Benz leaving the shadows of WWII and becoming an accepted participant in motor racing again, the Grand Prix community had to anticipate a full-out effort of a new generation of Silver Arrows. Indeed, new standards were set with a series of W196 variants born out of vast corporate resources, supported by component suppliers like Continental, Bosch, and Esso. In this story, the imaginary Italian “Unione Automobili,” previously formed of national legacy manufacturers other than Fiat, takes on the role of the Auto Union AG of the 1930s as an antagonist of Mercedes-Benz and promoter of the mid-engine layout. A probabilistic SWAT analysis reveals what it will take to beat the mighty opponent from Stuttgart. This is the start for a motley crew of Austrian and Italian engineers lead by Robert Eberan-Eberhorst to create a victorious challenger. The prescribed engine configuration is a compact V6 in homage to the Lancia brand. Breaking with Italian traditions, emphasis is put on chassis development where innovations in tires, brakes, and aerodynamics will provide decisive competitive advantages. Dr. Karl-Heinz Mertins (“K-H”) holds degrees in mechanical engineering and a doctorate in mechatronics/ag engineering from the Technical University Berlin, Germany. In more than 35 years of engineering and business experience in Europe and the US, he focused on product innovation and new business incubation, applying cross-disciplinary methods with cross-cultural considerations. His work included experimental work on intelligent mobile equipment and wind energy systems in multinational corporations and start-ups. His enthusiasm for F1 goes back to the 1961 season. ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== 00:00 The Challenge of Beating Mercedes-Benz 03:01 Mercedes-Benz's Post-War Comeback; The 300 SL and the Marshall Plan 08:59 The Shift to Mid-Engine Layout 12:28 The Italian Engineering Dream Team 18:45 Mercedes-Benz's Methodical Development 26:43 Lessons from the 300 SL 29:04 Chassis Design, Radial Tires, Space Frame and Aviation Influence 33:26 Innovative Suspension Systems 38:39 Brakes and Aerodynamic Innovations 40:43 Driver Position and Engine Choices 47:20 Fuel Injection and Aerodynamics 50:29 Concluding Thoughts and Acknowledgements ==================== The Motoring Podcast Network : Years of racing, wrenching and Motorsports experience brings together a top notch collection of knowledge, stories and information. #everyonehasastory #gtmbreakfix - motoringpodcast.net More Information: https://www.motoringpodcast.net/ Become a VIP at: https://www.patreon.com/gtmotorsports Online Magazine: https://www.gtmotorsports.org/ This episode is part of our HISTORY OF MOTORSPORTS SERIES and is sponsored in part by: The International Motor Racing Research Center (IMRRC), The Society of Automotive Historians (SAH), The Watkins Glen Area Chamber of Commerce, and the Argetsinger Family. 

¿Mercedes usando motores BMW? ¡Sacrilegio!, ¡Traición! Pero… ¿y si os dijera que esta "traición" no es la primera vez que la hace Mercedes? ¿Y si os dijera que es una de las prácticas más antiguas en el mundo del motor? Como de costumbre, mi objetivo es sorprenderos. Hoy en Garaje Hermético vamos a descubrir alianzas impensables y coches legendarios o casi cuyo “corazón” es prestado… La noticia ha corrido como la pólvora: Mercedes-Benz podría empezar a usar motores de cuatro cilindros de BMW a partir de 2027. Antes de que los más puristas os se vayáis a las puertas de Stuttgart a manifestaros, ,hay que entender el por qué. Desarrollar un motor desde cero es una de las inversiones más costosas a las que se enfrenta un fabricante. Hablamos de cientos, a veces miles de millones de euros en investigación, desarrollo, pruebas, utillaje para las fábricas y, sobre todo, en superar las cada vez más estrictas normativas anticontaminación. En un mundo que supuestamente va hacia lo eléctrico, invertir una fortuna en un nuevo motor de combustión que tiene fecha de caducidad es una apuesta muy arriesgada. Por eso, las sinergias, las colaboraciones y las alianzas estratégicas están a la orden del día. A veces es por pura supervivencia, otras por acceder a una tecnología que no se posee, y en ocasiones, simplemente, porque otra marca ya ha fabricado el motor perfecto que necesitas. Mercedes-BMW (2027). El rumor que ha desatado este guion apunta a un futuro muy cercano. A partir de 2027, se espera que Mercedes utilice motores de cuatro cilindros de origen BMW. Mercedes-Renault (2012). Esta colaboración es el ejemplo perfecto de la estrategia moderna. Con la llegada de la tercera generación del Clase A (W176), Mercedes necesitaba un motor diésel pequeño y muy eficiente. Mitsubishi Lancer TDi (2007). Si te hablo de Lancer enseguida tu mente se va a los Rallyes… pero Mitsubishi necesitaba un motor diésel de 2 litros para ser competitiva en Europa con su nueva generación del Lancer. Y en lugar de desarrollar uno propio, recurrió al proveedor por excelencia de la época: Volkswagen. Chrysler Sebring-VW (2007). A mediados de los 2000, el mercado europeo demandaba berlinas diésel. Chrysler, que por entonces formaba parte de DaimlerChrysler, no tenía un motor de gasóleo competitivo de 2 litros. La solución fue fácil y directa: comprarle a Volkswagen su archiconocido motor 2.0 TDi de 140 CV. Lotus-Toyota (2004). Lotus es la quintaesencia del chasis perfecto y la ligereza, pero la fiabilidad no siempre fue su fuerte y nunca fabricó motores. Con la llegada del Elise 111R, la marca británica tomó una de sus mejores decisiones: usar el motor 2ZZ-GE de Toyota. Lamborghini Gallardo-Audi (2003). Un Audi R8 vestido de gala. Aquí entramos en sinergias de grupo, pero no deja de ser chocante para los más puristas. Koenigsegg CC8S-Ford (2002). La exclusiva marca sueca recurrió a un V8 muy "plebeyo" de Ford. Mercedes Vito VR6 (1996). Esta es una de esas colaboraciones que rompen todos los esquemas. A mediados de los 90, Mercedes necesitaba un motor de gasolina potente y refinado para el tope de gama de su nueva furgoneta, la Vito 280 de la serie W638. Aston Martin DB7 “by Jaguar” (1994). El Aston Martin DB7 salvó a la marca de la quiebra en los 90. Era precioso, elegante... y un puzle de piezas de otras marcas. Su plataforma derivaba del Jaguar XJS y su motor de seis cilindros en línea era una evolución de un bloque de Jaguar, convenientemente sobrealimentado por un compresor. McLaren-BMW F1 (1992). Para muchos, el mejor superdeportivo de todos los tiempos. Pero Gordon Murray no tenía motor. Llamó a la puerta de Honda y no le “abrieron”. ¿La solución? Acudió a BMW M y el resultado fue el legendario S70/2, un V12 de 6.1 litros y 627 CV que es una obra de arte de la ingeniería. Mercedes 500 E "Made by Porsche" (1990). E incluido este coche para mostraros que los chicos de Mercedes son muy “promiscuos”. A principios de los 90, Mercedes quería competir con el BMW M5. Tenían el motor V8 perfecto, pero no cabía en la línea de montaje de su berlina, el W124. ¿A quién le pides ayuda cuando tienes un problema de ingeniería en Stuttgart? ¡Pues a tu vecino, Porsche!

In this week's episode of America on the Road, host Jack Nerad takes a close look at the 2025 Hyundai Elantra Hybrid Limited and walks away thoroughly impressed. This top-tier Elantra hybrid doesn't try to reinvent the compact sedan, but it delivers a balanced blend of premium features, smooth handling, and outstanding efficiency. With a 50 MPG combined rating, dual 10.25-inch digital screens, ventilated front seats, and Hyundai's full suite of advanced safety tech, all for just over $30,000, the stunning hybrid punches well above its class. The dual-clutch transmission offers a more engaging drive than typical hybrids, and the sharp styling gives it a confident, upscale look. It begs the question: Is this the best-value hybrid sedan you can buy? Also in this episode, co-host Chris Teague takes the 2026 Nissan Rogue Platinum out for a week-long spin to see what the top-trim version of the popular compact SUV brings to the asphalt. The answer is: quite a lot. From quilted leather seats and a panoramic moonroof to an intuitive Google-powered infotainment system and advanced ProPILOT Assist 2.1 semi-autonomous tech, this SUV makes a case for itself as a true luxury-lite option. Its overachieving 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder puts out 201 horsepower, while delivering laudable fuel economy. Comfort and convenience are clearly the priorities, with wireless smartphone integration, a premium Bose sound system, and clever cargo solutions among its bag of tricks. But is the Rogue Platinum a high-end bargain or just an over-equipped, over-priced niche vehicle? We'll share our thoughts. This week's special guest is car-builder, DIY expert, and Quaker State influencer Anatalia Villaranda. Known for her energetic presence and hands-on knowledge, Villaranda talks about how she got into cars, her favorite builds, and what it takes to grow a garage-based brand in today's automotive landscape. Whether you're into turning wrenches or just watching builds online, her passion and insights bring a fresh voice to the enthusiast community. Auto News This Week In the news, Tesla's EV market share is slipping, dropping to just 38% in August, its lowest since 2017. With rivals like Hyundai, Toyota, and Volkswagen gaining ground in the EV space through aggressive pricing and fresher lineups, Tesla's once-untouchable lead looks anything but secure. It's a wake-up call for a company that's been slow to refresh its core models while its CEO's attention has drifted elsewhere. Things aren't especially rosy at Ford either. The giant automaker is recalling over 1.5 million vehicles due to defective rear-view cameras that can display blank or distorted images. Affected models span from Mustangs to F-Series trucks, and some units even had cameras supplied by Magna that are now part of a separate, broader recall. It's the latest in a long string of issues that have made Ford the recall leader this year. Mercedes-Benz has completed an historic 749-mile drive from Germany to Sweden using solid-state battery tech. Using lithium-metal cells developed with Factorial Energy, the test highlights how this next-gen battery format could radically improve EV range, performance, and durability. The brand says it aims to bring this breakthrough to production by decade's end. Lexus has unveiled the 2026 IS 350, giving its compact sports sedan a sharper new design, more tech, and upgraded materials. With F Sport trims, forged bamboo accents, and an available 17-speaker Mark Levinson sound system, Lexus is hoping to keep performance-sedan lovers from switching brands. A 311-horsepower V6 and retuned suspension aim to keep things fun behind the wheel. But where's the V8, Chris and Jack ask. In additional Lexus news, Toyota will consolidate Lexus production in Indiana, shifting ES sedan production out of Kentucky in response to tariffs and changing market demands. Some high-end models will return to Japanese factories,

Send us a textIn this episode of Navigating the Customer Experience, we welcome back Joseph Michelli, a certified customer experience professional, New York Times and Wall Street Journal #1 bestselling author, and internationally sought-after keynote speaker. Known for his books on iconic brands such as The Ritz-Carlton, Mercedes-Benz, Starbucks, Zappos, and Airbnb, Joseph brings decades of insight on how leaders and frontline teams can elevate human experiences.We dive into his latest book, All Business Is Personal: One Medical's Human-Centered, Technology-Powered Approach to Customer Engagement. Joseph highlights how One Medical—now part of Amazon—revolutionized healthcare delivery by combining AI and digital convenience with deeply personal human connections. He explains how technology can remove inefficiencies, like long waits and scheduling frustrations, while still keeping care human-centered. His insights underscore the importance of balancing automation with empathy—especially as industries increasingly adopt AI.On the topic of patient comfort with digital healthcare, Joseph notes the learning curve. While technology can enhance convenience, it must never replace the human connection where it matters most. He shares examples of how One Medical redesigned workflows so patients were seen promptly, providers spent less time on charts, and the overall experience felt more personal, not less. The takeaway: technology should enable more meaningful human interactions, not eliminate them.Looking ahead to 2026, Joseph outlines three key priorities for CX leaders:AI-readiness – Organizations must understand how AI is influencing customer interactions and ensure their brand is positioned effectively in AI-driven recommendations.Convenience and hyper-personalization – Customers expect seamless, tailored experiences; tone-deaf or generic messaging erodes loyalty.Human-empowered service – Well-trained, emotionally intelligent employees remain essential for delivering authentic, personalized experiences.Joseph also shares exciting news: the launch of a fully online Master's Degree in Customer Experience at Campbellsville University. This program equips professionals with academic and practical tools—from persona-based journey mapping to ecosystem design—to advance CX as a business-driving discipline.When discussing the core competencies for CX representatives, Joseph emphasizes emotional intelligence as the foundation. Empathy, self-awareness, managing emotions, and understanding what customers should feel in every interaction are crucial across all industries. Leaders, meanwhile, must also master influence, persistence, vision, and the ability to deliver measurable business outcomes.Joseph closes with a guiding philosophy he leans on during challenges: “Service serves us.” By focusing on creating value for others, we in turn are enriched. Yet he also reminds us that service must be balanced with self-respect—serving up to the point where we are valued, not devalued.This rich conversation covers Joseph's career journey, the evolving role of AI, the future of CX leadership, and the enduring importance of empathy in business.

Nazi Germany turned the automobile's high speed into a propaganda tool for its technical and industrial supremacy. With its domestic motor industry having fallen behind the US and France, the political establishment pushed for dominance in Grand Prix racing, launched an automobile for the masses, and developed a wide network of motorways. Connecting racing cars, high speed, and the motorways was the Rekordwoche, an annual event launched in 1936 to conquer the highest speeds on a motorway. The last edition in 1939 was a relatively low-key event, shadowed by the prior year's sensational Mercedes-Benz speed record and Bernd Rosemeyer's death. Nevertheless, the propaganda machine aptly broadcast the speeds reached on an arrow-straight, level and wide 10 km motorway stretch north of Leipzig, purpose-built for the Rekordwochen and the conquest of the World Land Speed Record by a German driver on a German car on German soil. Aldo Zana is an Italian motor historian and journalist. He started writing articles for motor magazines in the mid-sixties as a freelance editor of Autosprint and Rombo weeklies, developing an inclination towards history and historic cars and races. Since the late Eighties, he has become a regular contributor to Italian and foreign historic car magazines; his recent automotive books include a history of the Sports-Prototype FIA World Championship; the lives and races of Italian drivers; the motor racing scenario of the Fifties; and the story of the forgotten Milano car shows 1901-1947. Zana is a long-time member of SAH and Aisa (Italian Association of Motor Historians), former member of the History and Museum Commission of ASI (Italian National Historic Car and Bike Association) and Ugis, the Italian guild of science journalists. ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== 00:00 Nazi Germany's Speed Propaganda 01:17 Overview of Record Weeks (1936-1938) 03:04 The 1939 Record Week 04:50 Mercedes-Benz and Auto Union Rivalry 06:14 The Final Record Week 15:07 Mysteries and Technical Details 19:46 Conclusion and Q&A; Closing Remarks and Credits ==================== The Motoring Podcast Network : Years of racing, wrenching and Motorsports experience brings together a top notch collection of knowledge, stories and information. #everyonehasastory #gtmbreakfix - motoringpodcast.net More Information: https://www.motoringpodcast.net/ Become a VIP at: https://www.patreon.com/gtmotorsports Online Magazine: https://www.gtmotorsports.org/ This episode is part of our HISTORY OF MOTORSPORTS SERIES and is sponsored in part by: The International Motor Racing Research Center (IMRRC), The Society of Automotive Historians (SAH), The Watkins Glen Area Chamber of Commerce, and the Argetsinger Family. 

There is no such thing as affordable housing.  It always turns into a scheme to take your tax dollars.  The most recent example is a housing project in Jackson.  Millions of your dollars were spent to build a big building that private companies are benefiting from.  Rebecca Bextel joins me to discuss the Ford Broncos and Mercedes Benz's in the parking lot of this thing.

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.

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.
