Rob spent the week in Dubai with NBA legend Michael Cooper, and jokes that it was an amazing place to spend time if he was about 20 years younger. The Lakers are helping UCLA build some hospitals overseas and Rob jokes that Mike made him do all the talking the entire trip. And as we creep in on NBA All-Star weekend, we await to see where Rob will fall in the Hall of Fame class announcements… but Rob doesn’t have high hopes of making the cut his first year on the ballot. Plus Rob tries to put the All-Star snubs of Norman Powell and Trae Young into perspective for the fans.   The Bronny James saga has again resurfaced as his recent struggles, and Rob feels like the Lakers are putting him in a bad spot by continuing to roll him out there when he’s clearly not ready. And as a father of a son who has NBA hopes, Rob is hoping to have a team invest in him like the Lakers have in Bronny regardless of his struggles. Rob also lays out the scenarios where the Heat actually move on from Jimmy Butler, because he believes that Pat Riley will only do what’s best for the Heat and not what’s best for Jimmy. Plus how are the Kings voluntarily moving on from De’Aaron Fox when he should be the piece they build the future of the Kings around.   Joel Embiid missed the 400th game of his career this week, meaning that he’s missed 47% of his CAREER games – and Rob believes that if he ever signs another NBA contract, it will have to come with stipulations about not paying him for games he doesn’t play. We also play the audio of Adam Silver saying he would be a fan of shortening quarters to 10 minutes, and Rob says there is NO way it ever happens because it would affect sponsorship dollars. And if he wants to speed up the game, they need to eliminate the terminally long foul reviews that eat up way more time than necessary.   Would you try the new Peanut Butter & Jelly M&Ms? Rob says he’s excited to give them a shot… gross. We also offer up a Big Shot of the Week to an LA restaurateur who is putting the community ahead of herself by using her surviving restaurants to feed people displaced by the tragic fires. And a really fun new version of Rapid Fire called “Did You Know?”

Geoffrey Reid, president of Blue River Development, along with co-CEOs and Managing Principals Brad and Michael Cooper, join host Carol Morgan for this week's Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio episode. This podcast segment delves into Blue River Development's 2025 goals and how recent financial trends affect the housing market and the land development process. Filling the Gap of Housing Supply Blue River Development plans to close 20 to 25 new land deals this year, including over 20 projects already on schedule to close before the end of 2025. It also has over 60 active deals in the due diligence and negotiation stages. “We're really here to help serve home builders and help them fill their land pipelines,” said Reid. “And while the housing market continues to evolve, one thing that remains is a lack of supply and solving this problem begins with the land.” Reid describes Blue River Development's approach as “keeping our foot on the pedal” as it drives to source land that transforms into housing for all buyers, including first-time homebuyers, those looking to move up and even the luxury home market. Expanding in New and Current Markets Utilizing months of supply inventory data in its housing markets, Blue River Development finds locations with the most demand for homes. The equilibrium is 6 months for housing supply, and the Atlanta market has just over 3 months of housing inventory as of January 2025. “It is a mission-based acquisition process that our guys are tasked with, and it's to leave no stone unturned,” said Reid. “And that means that in every active municipality, jurisdiction, you know, our team is intimate with the entitlement probabilities, with the future land use map, jurisdictions and understanding intimately the ability to obtain our entitlements, but also the infrastructure that's needed to execute on our projects.” In addition to the Atlanta market, Blue River Development is also active in the Carolinas, Florida, Tennessee and east Dallas, Texas. Last year, the development company pivoted to focus on land development and was met with much success. Brad Cooper explains that the company returned to its core business model, which is land development. It transformed not only its business plan but also its team to refocus on land development in 2024.  “We've got the right team,” said Brad Cooper. “We're in a very tight business plan with tight underwriting standards, and it's been just amazingly successful in 2024." Effects of Fluctuating Interest Rates and Supply Chain Slowdowns Interest rates reached an all-time high in recent years, but Michael Cooper says that Blue River Development anticipates that they will remain flat this year after lowering slightly at the end of 2024, which allows for more housing supply. The fluctuations of interest, both raising and lowering, directly impact the underwriting process for builders. He also notes that the supply chain experienced hiccups during the COVID-19 pandemic. The lack of bids affected the development process and how much supply was being presented to prospective buyers. “Now we've got multiple options to bid out our projects, which has been nice to see,” said Michael Cooper. “So ultimately, we feel very good about the forecast here, even despite some of the challenges with where mortgage rates are today.” Tune in the full episode to learn more about Blue River Development's upcoming projects and more.

About Blue River Development Blue River Development is a vertically integrated land developer focusing on growing 24 markets across seven Southern states. With its data-driven approach, Blue River Development has an impressive track record of acquiring below market residential land opportunities for both build-to-rent and for-sale.

Jed and Katie discussed the importance of inclusive language and not othering people with disabilities. It was a really thoughtful conversation about embracing diversity and helping kids understand each other.

It was so inspiring to hear about Michael empowering his kids to turn their ideas into reality.  Michael also talked about the eye-opening travel experiences that have shaped his worldview, and how he tries to instill gratitude and give-back values in his children.

Paul Martin is a Japanese sword expert who has worked at the British Museum and traveled extensively in Japan to study swords and armor. Martin's new book Japanese Swords and Armor covers 30 famous samurai warriors and their swords, armor, and other artifacts associated with them, from antique sets to modern treasures, each with its own historical and cultural significance. The book was originally published in both Italian and French, and will now be available in English from by Tuttle Publishing in Oct. 2024.He discusses the history and significance of Emperor Go-Toba, who was exiled to the Oki Islands but continued making swords there. The swords he made were marked with a chrysanthemum, which became the basis for the current Imperial seal.In this podcast episode, Paul Martin highlights some of the most notable pieces in his book, including a wooden sword made by Miyamoto Musashi and sword fittings attributed to him. Martin provided recommendations on the best places in Japan to see historical Japanese swords.Empeor Go-Toba was known for his poetry, much of it written while in exile on Oki Island. One particular poem involves the poet banishing the frogs from a nearby pond:"Frogs, croaking in the pond,Go away, banish your noise;In this world of sorrow,There is no need for your song." (translation generated from ChatGPT)This poem highlights Go-Toba's despair and the heavy burden of his exile. The imagery of banishing the frogs from the pond serves as a metaphor for his own banishment and desire for peace amidst his suffering.Paul also talks about the beginning lines of the Tale of the Heike, an epic that recounts the history of the late Heian period, including the life and exile of Go-Toba“The sound of the Gion Shoja temple bells echoes the impermanence of all things; the color of the sala flowers reveals the truth that to flourish is to fall. The proud do not endure, like a passing dream on a night in spring; the mighty fall at last, to be no more than dust before the wind.” Helen Craig McCulloughLastly, Paul's favorite books are:1. They Came to Japan by Michael Cooper, a collection of Jesuit records from the 17th century.2. The Tale of the Heike, (version translated by Helen Craig McCullough) a classic Japanese epic poem that reflects the concept of impermanence.“The sound of the Gion Shoja temple bells echoes the impermanence of all things; the color of the sala flowers reveals the truth that to flourish is to fall. The proud do not endure, like a passing dream on a night in spring; the mighty fall at last, to be no more than dust before the wind.” Helen Craig McCullough3. The documentary "The Emperor's Naked Army Marches On" by Kazuo Hara, which explores the ambiguities of Japanese culture and the horrors of war.Be sure to pick up his book: Japanese Swords and Armor: Masterpieces from Thirty of Japan's Most Famous Samurai Warriors (Tuttle, Oct. 2024)You can follow Paul Martin by clicking on the following links:Website: The Japanese Sword (thejapanesesword.com)YouTube: Paul Martin: The Japanese SwordFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/The.Japanese.SwordInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thejapanesesword/Twitter: @thejapaneseswrd (https://x.com/thejapaneseswrd)LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thejapanesesword/ The Books on Asia Podcast is sponsored by Stone Bridge Press.
