Jen takes us back to 1920s America and the story of Henry Ford, anti-Semitic propagandist, Hitler fan, and all-round moral crusader who decided that owning the world's car industry wasn't enough. His next project? Buying 2.5 million acres of the Amazon rainforest to build a rubber empire and implant a wholesome, alcohol-free, jazz-free, union-free Midwestern town in the middle of one of the most hostile environments on Earth. The Soph brings the misery with a story from July 1999. Best friends David and Raffi set off on a road trip from Boston to California. A detour into Rattlesnake Canyon in Carlsbad Caverns National Park, with one and a half litres of water between them, goes catastrophically wrong. Hosted on Acast.

Today's daily comedy adventure starts with an actual real estate listing from the underworld itself: Hell, Michigan is officially for sale. That's right — for the low, low price of $625,000, you too can own seven acres of pure Midwestern chaos complete with a wedding chapel, mini golf, souvenir shop, and an ice cream stand called “The Crematory.” Because apparently somebody looked at a normal small-town business plan and said, “Needs more eternal damnation.”The gang debates whether Hell is secretly a genius investment opportunity, whether Lern should become mayor of Hell, and how long before somebody turns the whole thing into a TikTok influencer commune with haunted goat yoga and craft IPA flights called “Satan's Hazy Delight.”Then things get appropriately weird in Crap On Celebrities:Adam Sandler causes internet drama by showing up to his wife's red carpet premiere dressed like he just wandered out of a Knicks tailgate.Gayle King once again denies she and Oprah are secretly together, while Rizz remains approximately 0% convinced.Cindy Crawford reveals a longtime eyelid condition and somehow still looks better than the rest of humanity combined.Sam Elliott confirms he's basically been the voice of America for decades thanks to Smokey Bear.A Perfect Circle drops new music for the first time in eight years.Jared Leto apparently wants your eyeballs now with a bizarre iris-scanning concert ticket system because regular Ticketmaster misery wasn't dystopian enough.Jon Hamm stars in what might become the greatest movie premise ever: a woman desperately trying to cash in her celebrity hall pass before her marriage collapses.And then… possibly the dumbest and greatest moment of the show: Lern unveils her absolutely unhinged patriotic remix promoting America's 250th birthday celebration featuring CNC Music Factory, Vanilla Ice, Flo Rida, Milli Vanilli, and enough early-90s energy drinks to restart the economy. Honestly, if this lineup doesn't scream “government-funded county fair energy,” nothing does.Also:Back In The Day triviaRocky III nostalgiaGary Coleman conspiracy talkWhy nobody should ever trust “orb technology”Why Phil Hartman's story is still heartbreakingThe return of weird celebrity AI recreationsAnd somehow Bedman & Throbbin enters the conversation because this show legally cannot behave itself for more than six consecutive minutes.This daily comedy episode is exactly what happens when a funny morning show has unrestricted access to microphones, caffeine, and internet headlines that sound fake but somehow aren't.If you love weird news, sarcastic humor, celebrity nonsense, and St. Louis radio chaos, congratulations — you found your people.

The crew debates whether Monday or Friday should disappear forever in the glorious future of shorter work weeks, and Lern admits she's somehow become more productive working fewer days. Which feels fake, but apparently science backs it up. Meanwhile, Rizz shares the emotional rollercoaster of his son's surprise birthday party after the poor kid spent all day convinced nobody loved him. Nothing says “family bonding” like emotional manipulation followed by chocolate cake.Then comes the story that absolutely broke the internet: a Florida woman gets pulled over for texting while driving… except the officer claims she was holding the phone in her RIGHT HAND. Tiny issue there: she doesn't have a right hand. The bodycam footage somehow gets even more awkward as the cop doubles down harder than a guy trying to explain crypto at Buffalo Wild Wings. The gang breaks down the absurdity of the situation, internet reactions, and why this may be the greatest accidental self-own in police bodycam history.Also: Rafe casually reveals somebody once touched tips in the woods during Little League and honestly the show never emotionally recovers from there.This episode has everything:Florida chaos. Bathroom sociology. Relationship oversharing. Burger recommendations. Dong science. Emotional support vehicles. And enough sarcastic nonsense to legally qualify as group therapy.Hell, Michigan is officially for sale. That's right — for the low, low price of $625,000, you too can own seven acres of pure Midwestern chaos complete with a wedding chapel, mini golf, souvenir shop, and an ice cream stand called “The Crematory.” Because apparently somebody looked at a normal small-town business plan and said, “Needs more eternal damnation.”The gang debates whether Hell is secretly a genius investment opportunity, whether Lern should become mayor of Hell, and how long before somebody turns the whole thing into a TikTok influencer commune with haunted goat yoga and craft IPA flights called “Satan's Hazy Delight.”Lern unveils her absolutely unhinged patriotic remix promoting America's 250th birthday celebration featuring CNC Music Factory, Vanilla Ice, Flo Rida, Milli Vanilli, and enough early-90s energy drinks to restart the economy. Honestly, if this lineup doesn't scream “government-funded county fair energy,” nothing does. A Portland mom grabs a stick and chases an intruder out of her house after hearing threats against her family. Naturally, this immediately turns into a debate about whether “crazy meets crazy” is actually a legitimate life strategy… which, according to Lern, it absolutely is. Honestly? She may have a point. Or she may just want an excuse to scream at strangers in Target. Jury's still out.Then the gang discovers the existence of chess boxing — yes, actual boxing mixed with speed chess — proving once again that humans were never meant to have free time. Imagine trying to remember your opening strategy immediately after getting punched in the face by a guy named Vlad who definitely owns fingerless gloves. St. Louis might officially be the perfect city for this nonsense considering we've got boxing history AND the Chess Hall of Fame. We're basically one monocle away from hosting the national championships.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Woman With No Right Hand Was Ticketed for Using Phone with Her Right Hand — Now She's Speaking Out After the Citation Was DismissedThe Big Little Penis PanicI Asked 5 Chefs for the Worst Day To Dine Out—and Now I'll Always Avoid This OneThese St. Louis area Pizza Huts set to bring back 80s/90s retro vibesAdam Sandler has the internet split with 'embarrassing' look at wife's movie premiere‘Meet crazy with crazy': Mom chases home intruder away with stickChess boxing is the hybrid bloodsport taking NYC by storm: ‘Real punches to the face, no gimmicks about it'Florida man sues Carnival Cruise for $5M, claims severe burns from hot deckTSA's 3-1-1 rule explained: What it is & how to stay compliant with itA humanoid robot flew on Southwest Airlines to Dallas.

Send us Fan MailBall Watching hosts, Jake Koenig and Justin Graham, continue their "Road to '26" interview series with St. Louis soccer royalty and a true pillar of the American game—Mike Sorber. Mike didn't just witness the 1994 soccer revolution; he was the tactical anchor and engine room for it. From his legendary days as a SLU Billiken to becoming the first American to play in Mexico's top flight with Pumas, he has navigated some of the toughest, grittiest environments in soccer history. With the World Cup returning to the U.S. in 2026, he joins us at the perfect moment to bridge his historic playing days with his elite coaching career across the USMNT, New York Red Bulls, and St. Louis CITY SC.We get "on the grass" with the mastermind himself to cover:The 1994 Crucible: We dive into what the internal vibe was like in the locker room when players felt they were playing for the literal survival of the sport in the U.S.. Mike breaks down Bora Milutinović's specific tactical mandate for him as the squad's quiet anchor.The St. Louis DNA & Liga MX Trailblazing: We discuss how growing up in the unique St. Louis soccer ecosystem prepared him for a professional career before MLS even existed. He shares how a Midwestern "chip on the shoulder" helped him navigate Mexico's top flight.The Coaching Blueprint: We look at his transition to the tactical board and how much of the high-intensity Red Bull pressing philosophy he injected into the foundation of St. Louis CITY SC. He reveals the behind-the-scenes non-negotiables required to establish a club's expansion identity.The Road to 2026 & Legacy: We ask whether the return of the tournament feels like a true "mission accomplished" moment for his generation. Plus, he reveals the exact trait the current 2026 USMNT roster needs to "steal" from the 1994 squad to achieve real success.Follow the show on X and/or Instagram (@BallWatchingSTL)!

This week, hosts Tom Zalatnai (@tomzalatnai) and Teffer Adjemian (@tefferbear) bring you an episode all about mayonnaise and aioli!

Building a brand that lasts requires a bundle of promises, an uncompromising dedication to craft, and a healthy dose of grit. Monica Nassif, the force behind Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day, didn't just disrupt a tired $30 billion category—she bottled a legacy. From raising capital to fueling creative muscle, she knows exactly what it takes to turn an authentic story into a market-shifting powerhouse. What You'll Learn in This Episode - How training your eyes to notice beauty helps you identify distracting retail clutter and build an uncompromising premium brand - Why a former Target speechwriter decided to intentionally knock off her own high-end business with a thrifty Midwestern alternative - How capturing real words and designing a detailed stylist guide can create a consistent domestic mentor persona for a real-life mother - What two belly-flop startups taught a product geek about the dangers of running two businesses at once without a dedicated sales structure - Why stepping away from digital focus groups and walking the aisles of a competitive landscape provides the ultimate customer insight Episode Chapters (00:00) Intro (02:42) Balancing Startup Grit with Premium Detail (04:26) Turning a Real Person Into a Beloved Household Brand (05:56) Creating a Brand Bible Around a Legacy Persona (12:47) Learning from Startup Flops and Learning to Sell (15:37) The Framework of Why You Should Start a Business (19:56) The Retail Rat Approach to Market Research (26:13) A Brand That Makes Monica Smile About Monica Nassif Monica Nassif is an author, founder, entrepreneur, and motivational speaker who revolutionized the consumer household product market by launching the premium cleaning lines Caldrea and Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day. After beginning her career in marketing communications at Target Corporation as a speechwriter, editor, and publicist, she founded Kilter Incorporated, a Minneapolis-based agency serving major retail companies. Nassif's fearless approach to business has led her through four startups, resulting in major market-shifting successes and instructive flops alike.

Shannon and Eric Evangelista, and retired FBI Special Agent Ken Maxwell, discuss the two-night docuseries about a man found naked and injured behind a rural Georgia Burger King in August 2004, a man who couldn't remember his own name, and called himself "Benjaman Kyle." What began as a mission to help Benjaman recover his identity became something far darker. Over more than a decade of reporting, filmmakers Shannon and Eric Evangelista watched the cracks in his story widen into a true crime labyrinth, three unsolved cold cases, a possible connection to a powerful Midwestern crime family, and escalating threats that ultimately put one of their own in danger.

Very few chefs have shaped Napa Valley dining quite like Cindy Pawlcyn. Over a career spanning more than four decades, the chef and restaurateur behind Mustards Grill, Cindy's Backstreet Kitchen and numerous other Bay Area restaurants has helped define what wine country cuisine is today.Pawlcyn joins Wine Spectator Napa Bureau Chief MaryAnn Worobiec to discuss her Midwestern upbringing, launching a catering business at age 13, learning the restaurant business in Chicago and eventually helping put Napa Valley dining on the culinary map. She shares the origins of iconic dishes like Mustards' Mongolian pork chop, paper-thin onion rings and towering lemon-lime tart.“I wanted a place you can come in in jeans and a T-shirt,” says Pawlcyn of Mustards Grill. “A lot of guys come in with their sample bottles of wine you know and they're tasting things. I just wanted a place, like a neighborhood joint…we needed something with a burger or a really nice dinner for a celebration.”Host James Molesworth also talks with Wine Spectator's senior editor for news, Mitch Frank, to take a closer look at Napa tourism, how wineries are evolving the tasting room experience and the upcoming 50th anniversary of the historic 1976 Judgment of Paris tasting.And don't forget, there's always more free content at WineSpectator.com.Read the Napa Valley Travel GuideLatest Wine NewsNew York Wine ExperienceAsk Dr. VinnySubscribe to Wine SpectatorA podcast from Wine SpectatorMarvin R.

Actor, dancer and singer Ken Berry grew up in a small Midwestern town, admiring the musicals of Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly. After winning several local talent contests, he found his way into show business and was soon pulling down an impressive (for the time) $90 a week! Gilbert and Frank caught up with Ken at his Hollywood home to ask about his “two years of recess” on the classic sitcom “F-Troop” and his memories of working alongside comedy greats George Burns, Don Rickles, Carol Burnett and a then (mostly) unknown Steve Martin.

Megan chats with Yumna Jawad about building a multi-revenue food blogging business through cookbooks, partnerships, affiliate marketing, speaking opportunities, and physical products. Yumna Jawad, who was born in Africa to Lebanese parents and moved to the US at 11 years old, is beloved by millions of fans globally on Instagram, TikTok, and her website, Feel Good Foodie for her unique, delicious, creative and easy recipes that often go viral on social media. She has grown her massive following from scratch the past decade and has recently founded a new culinary venture, Oath Oats, launched in November 2022. Yumna's viral food trends have been featured by Live with Kelly & Ryan, The Today Show, Good Morning America, PEOPLE, Vogue, and the New York Times. A graduate from the University of Michigan Business School, she now lives in Grand Rapids, Michigan, with her husband and two kids. Yumna's parents are both Lebanese so she proudly features Lebanese, middle eastern and Ramadan recipes as part of her heritage. Her first cookbook, The Feel Good Foodie Cookbook, launched in May 2024 (Penguin) and is filled with over 100 approachable, unique and delicious "Middle Eastern meets Midwestern" recipes for the entire family. The cookbook hit the bestseller lists on Amazon, USA Today and Publisher's Weekly. Ad revenue is no longer enough to support a long-term food blogging business. In this episode, Yumna shares the exact ways she diversified Feel Good Foodie into a recognizable brand with multiple income streams. This conversation is packed with practical ideas for experienced food bloggers who want more stability, visibility, and long-term growth. Key Topics Discussed: - Build revenue streams before traffic declines force you to. - Long term brand partnerships outperform one off sponsorships. - A cookbook strengthens authority far beyond direct sales. - Affiliate income grows faster when personality leads the content. - Email works best when it builds relationships instead of pushing recipes. - Video creates stronger audience connection than static content alone.

The Rizzuto Show returns with another completely unhinged episode packed with heroic swamp justice, emotional damage, celebrity chaos, and enough playground nostalgia to make you smell cafeteria pizza again. This comedy podcast starts strong with the crew preparing for Pointfest weekend before immediately derailing into one of the greatest fake award ceremonies in show history: the official presentation of the first-ever Swamp Justice Medal of Freedom.After a St. Louis Cardinals fan bravely stepped in during a dangerous moment at Busch Stadium, the show decides the man deserves recognition the mainstream media apparently refused to provide. Naturally, this turns into a fully orchestrated patriotic tribute involving dramatic speeches, fake medals, Midwestern heroism, and several moments that somehow feel both sincere and completely ridiculous at the same time. Honestly, it might be the proudest moment in modern broadcasting. Or the dumbest. Hard to tell anymore.Then things somehow become even more unstable.Rafe discovers that Reba McEntire is engaged and reacts with the emotional maturity of a raccoon trapped inside a fireworks store. What follows is one of the most absurd comedy bits in recent memory as he describes crashing Reba's future wedding disguised as a corn dog vendor while professing his undying love in front of longhorn cattle, miniature donkeys, and deeply uncomfortable wedding guests. If you've ever wondered what would happen if romantic fan fiction collided with state fair cuisine, this comedy podcast has your answer.The crew also debates the saddest movie deaths of all time and accidentally turns the studio into a trauma support group. From Bing Bong and Mufasa to Armageddon, The Green Mile, Forrest Gump, Logan, and My Girl, absolutely nobody escapes emotional devastation. Moon somehow tries to sneak Jesus Christ into the conversation, which honestly feels very on-brand at this point.Elsewhere in the episode:Mini Kiss stories somehow dominate an entire segmentAir Supply accidentally catches straysThe internet invents “ball maxing” because society is collapsing in real timeHorse fart audio becomes a legitimate discussion topicThe gang debates recess, playground politics, and old-school childhood gamesRafe reveals he was elite at Double Dutch before toxic masculinity stole his dreamsEverybody collectively realizes recess may have been the only thing keeping America functionalThis comedy podcast continues delivering the exact mix of sarcastic humor, pop culture nonsense, emotional overreactions, and St. Louis chaos that somehow keeps this whole thing running. Whether it's celebrity gossip, weird news, childhood trauma, or a grown man yelling “GET YOUR CORN DOG, REBA” into a microphone, The Rizzuto Show remains your trusted source for daily entertainment and complete nonsense.If you love funny podcasts, weird stories, sarcastic humor, celebrity fails, daily comedy, or hearing adults emotionally unravel over fictional characters and carnival food, welcome home.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.City of Markham sues park district executive director over prom photo helicopter landingStudy Shows Littering Declined 34% Across America Since 2020Nonprofits spearhead St. Louis effort to remove trash, tiresWoman Who Went Viral for Unintentionally Rude Email Address Changes Her Last NameSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The chaos level on today's episode somehow exceeded “Florida news headline” and entered full-blown county fair fever dream territory. The gang kicks things off by honoring local legend Steve Lewandowski with the first-ever Swamp Justice Medal of Freedom after his heroic moment at a Cardinals game. It's heartfelt, inspiring… and immediately derailed by improvised ceremonial music, fake government awards, and discussions about “elite Midwestern restraint.” Honestly? The Smithsonian should already be calling.Then things take a sharp left turn directly into the corn dog dimension when Rafe discovers that Reba McEntire is engaged — and absolutely does not take the news well. What follows is one of the most unhinged love monologues in recent show history involving disguises, wedding sabotage, miniature donkeys, emotional support corn dogs, and a Tennessee ranch showdown that somehow feels both illegal and deeply patriotic. Rex Lynn, if you're listening… maybe hire security.But wait. The internet got weird again. The crew dives headfirst into the disturbing trend of “ball maxing,” where dudes are apparently inflating themselves like carnival prizes in pursuit of alpha status. If you've ever wanted to hear grown adults discuss saline-filled testicles with the seriousness of a congressional hearing, congratulations: this funny podcast has arrived precisely for you.And because the universe clearly wasn't finished humiliating humanity, the gang uncovers reports of “Ozempic penis,” inspiring an all-time fake 1970s TV theme song for Inner Shaft — the private investigator whose confidence grew three inches overnight. There are disco vocals. There are inappropriate metaphors. There's at least one sentence that should probably be studied by scientists.Also included in today's disaster:Pointfest hype and backstage chaosFake medals for journalistic integrityCorn dog-based relationship counselingReba fan-fiction nobody asked forMen voluntarily becoming water balloonsThe greatest cassette tape “discovery” in show historyA level of stupidity that should qualify for federal fundingIf you love sarcastic humor, weird news, ridiculous commentary, celebrity chaos, and a morning show that routinely derails itself before 8am, congratulations — this is your new emotional support broadcast. The Rizzuto Show continues proving that no topic is too dumb to overcommit to.Whether you're here for the swamp justice, the corn dog seduction arc, or simply because hearing the phrase “Ozempic penis” in traffic makes your commute less depressing, this funny podcast has exactly what your damaged little heart needs.And remember: if a stranger ever hands your spouse a corn dog at a wedding… it may already be too late.Thanks for listening to another episode of the funny podcast proudly lowering the national IQ one segment at a time.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

When he was a young homo, he was expected to rim his tops. Kids today want the top to rim the bottom! What gives? A straight man and his girlfriend keep taking "breaks" from the relationship, at her behest. They always end up getting back together, but each time he thinks it's the end. Should he continue to tolerate this exhausting cycle? Our guest is the thoroughly delightful Midwestern comedian Jackie Kashian. She and Dan tackle a question from a man who wants to hit on a woman 30 years his junior at the Passover seder. They talk about age gap relationships in general, on sleeping with many people whilst blotto drunk, and they dish out some actionable advice on how to succeed as a stand-up comedian. A little is on the Micro, and the whole thing is on the Magnum. And, a very female presenting non-binary person has the hots for gay bears. Are any of them bisexual enough to want to date this person?

What makes a university—and its surrounding city—sticky?In this episode, David J. Staley explores a powerful concept shaping the future of higher education: stickiness—the ability of a college or university not only to attract students, but to inspire them to stay, build careers, and contribute to the region after graduation.Drawing on a recent consulting experience at a Midwestern university, Staley reflects on a familiar challenge: institutions successfully bring students in, only to watch them leave for opportunities elsewhere. He contrasts this with “sticky” ecosystems like Ohio State and Columbus, where a dynamic interplay between university strengths and regional opportunities encourages graduates to remain and thrive.The episode introduces the idea of a “stickiness index”—a framework for assessing how well institutions and cities retain talent. Factors include:Alignment between academic programs and local job marketsInternship and career pipelinesSocial connections and campus engagementQuality of life and affordabilityEntrepreneurial and innovation ecosystemsStaley argues that stickiness is not accidental—it requires a deliberate, collaborative strategy between universities, civic leaders, and employers. It also calls for a reimagining of alumni engagement, shifting from long-term connection-building to immediate post-graduation retention efforts.Importantly, he reframes the common narrative of “brain drain” as something more subtle: “brain leakage”—where talent is developed locally but gradually seeps away due to lack of opportunity or connection. For institutions facing enrollment pressures and questions about value, a focus on stickiness offers a compelling path forward—one that integrates enrollment, student experience, workforce development, and regional vitality into a unified strategy.

Lloyd and Wallace Brenna are two Midwestern brothers whose outwardly ordinary lives conceal a long pattern of troubling behavior. From rural North Dakota beginnings to a 1971 bombing in South Dakota, the story moves through wiretapping, theft, and an attempted assassination. Built from years of research and original reporting, the series follows the Brennas while, in parallel, the life of the victim unfolds, carrying a quiet, growing sense of dread toward an unsettling end. A serious story, with moments of dark humor along the way. A special thanks to Mike Wald and Derrik Dyka for their contributions to this episode.

Dave opens the Wednesday Dose of Dopey talking about Patreon backlash over Selby's heavy breathing during the Tuesday Patreon show, his hatred for the newest season of Euphoria, Lena Dunham's audiobook, Knicks obsession, and getting ready to emcee the Phoenix House gala honoring Hank Azaria. He then reads an email from a Scottish listener who got sober from alcohol after discovering Dopey through This American Life, but later spiraled into opioids, heroin, and benzos before finally trying to get clean again after hearing DJ's episode. Then Dave dives into a massive pile of brutal Spotify and Patreon comments reacting to the Amanda de Cadenet episode, with listeners calling her “insufferable,” “guarded,” “pretentious,” and “the worst guest ever,” while others defend her and praise Dave for surviving the awkward interview.

#712: Jeff Hurst, CEO of Furnished Finder, joins us to break down what midterm rentals are, who they're for, and why now might be the best time to get in. A midterm rental is a furnished unit rented for 30 days or longer - longer than a hotel stay, shorter than a traditional lease. Cities have been regulating Airbnb-style short-term rentals out of existence, leaving a wave of furnished properties with nowhere to go. That supply is now shifting toward the midterm market, driven by three primary tenant types: corporate and skilled trade workers, traveling healthcare professionals, and relocating families doing a "try before you buy" neighborhood test run. We get into the specifics of what it costs to furnish a midterm rental (about $7 per square foot, compared to $30 to $40 for a short-term rental), where owners typically overspend (treating it like a leisure destination), and where they underinvest (quality mattresses, blackout curtains, kitchen functionality). Jeff also explains how to model out your returns, estimate vacancy, and use tools like Furnished Finder's market insights tab and AirDNA data to vet a market before you buy. On the question of where to invest, Jeff walks through a layered research approach - starting with population migration, proximity to hospitals and universities, commuter corridors, and school districts. He's bullish on mid-sized cities with data center build-outs and expanding healthcare infrastructure, and argues that markets like those around northwest Arkansas, parts of Texas, and mid-sized Midwestern cities offer better risk-adjusted returns than the leisure destinations that dominated the short-term era. Jeff also covers HOA red flags to look for, how to approach off-market deals, what the regulatory environment looks like for midterm (spoiler: almost no city is restricting it), and why the category today feels a lot like short-term rentals at their peak.

- Ag Markets with Greg Johnson, TGM- Kansas Hard Red Winter Wheat Abandonment- Ethanol, Carbon Markets, and Corn Prices- Ag Weather with Drew Lerner, @worldwxThe April 29, 2026, Closing Market Report covers updates on agricultural markets, crop conditions, and weather forecasts. Greg Johnson of TGM notes that while Midwest farmers are making steady planting progress, recent price rallies—driven by poor western wheat conditions and global factors—have prompted some opportunistic new crop sales. Dan O'Brien from Kansas State University highlights that poor weather may lead to the abandonment of some hard red winter wheat in Kansas, though current high prices might persuade producers to harvest what they can rather than destroy the crop. Finally, meteorologist Drew Lerner reports on recent and upcoming freezing temperatures threatening the Great Lakes region, a brief drying window for Midwestern planting, and potential moisture stress for Brazil's safrinha corn crop. ★ Support this podcast ★

Make sure to subscribe, share this episode, and hit the notification bell so you never miss a deep dive into history.Welcome to another "thrilling" episode of The Days, where we are heading to the banks of the Ohio River to explore the story of Evansville, Indiana. This city has been shaped by ancient cultures, frontier ambitions, river trade, industrial growth, and a level of resilience that is frankly "fucked." Whether you know it as a hard-working Midwestern hub or just a place with "really bad pollution," the history of Evansville begins long before it even had a name. We start with the Angel Mounds, a major center of trade and culture occupied from 1000 AD to 1450 AD—centuries before Europeans arrived. Then, we move into the 1800s, tracing the arrival of Hugh McGarry Jr. and the eventual naming of the city after Colonel Robert M. Evans, a man who, as it turns out, wasn't even from here. The episode dives deep into the industrial boom that turned Evansville into a commercial powerhouse. We discuss the founding of Old National Bank in 1834, the rise of the "Lumber Barons" like John Augustus Reitz, and the city's unlikely title as the "Cigar Capital of the World" in the early 1900s. Did you know Barry Plastics now sits in a former factory that hand-cranked 100 million cigars a year? Finally, we cover Evansville's massive contribution to World War II. During the war, 75% of local factories held military contracts, and the Evansville shipyard became the world's largest inland producer of ocean-going ships, turning out 167 LSTs. We wrap up with the legends of the West Side Nut Club Fall Festival—the second largest street festival in the U.S.—and a heated debate over the new "Acorn" intersection at the Lloyd and St. Joe. TIMELINE : 00:00 - Introduction to the history of Evansville 03:00 - Angel Mounds and ancient Native American trade 06:15 - 1812: Hugh McGarry Jr. and the first homestead 11:20 - Who was Colonel Robert M.

This is the book that will allow you to understand what happens when a near-death experiencer does not return to the human body right after the life review. "33 Souls" will remove all worry you might have about death, crossing over, and what awaits you on the other side. 33 Souls Who Met God provides firsthand, in person reports of the true energetic nature of God/Source/the Creator from those who have literally been inside its energetic field. These souls—who in human incarnation were atheists, agnostics, Buddhists, Hindus, Catholics, Christians, and held various other spiritual beliefs—returned from death and the afterlife believing in the same non-humanoid, all-encompassing, all-loving Creator of everything. Their incredible journeys show that regardless of our divisive pre-death human beliefs, we all return to reunification with the same Source of life and love of which we are a part, and with each other. The 33 Souls learned the eternal truth about our origin, the purpose of human life, and our ultimate destiny in eternal life. Bio Nanci L. Danison, BS, BA, JD, retired from practicing law as a health lawyer in Ohio, having been in practice for 36 years, first with a prestigious, Midwestern, 270-attorney regional law firm, and then as a solo practitioner. She graduated from Morris Harvey College magna cum laude with a BA in Psychology and a BS in Biology/Chemistry. Her Doctorate in Jurisprudence is from The Ohio State University College of Law.

"Different is better than better." It's the belief that drove Monica Nassif to build one of the most beloved household brands in America, and in the latest episode of the 2B Bolder podcast series, she sat down with me to share exactly how she did it. And this was a conversation I didn't want to end.Monica didn't stumble into entrepreneurship. She grew up the oldest girl in a family of nine kids, all born within 10 years, running the household when her mom needed backup, holding jobs from age 10 onward, babysitting, waitressing at a truck stop (where she lied about her age at 15!), and typing in an ER at 16. Her mom's mantra? "Learn to work with people." That stuck.What I love most about Monica's story is the boldness of her strategy. She built a beautiful, high-end cleaning brand called Caldria, and then deliberately set out to compete with herself before anyone else could. That's how Mrs. Meyer's was born, inspired by her real Midwestern mom, Thelma Meyer, the original recycler who wasted absolutely nothing.We cover so much:Why she trusted trend-spotting over focus groups How packaging and fragrance turned cleaning products into something people wanted on their countertops The two "belly flops" and the financial guardrails she used to shut one down before it became a sinkhole Building an up-tempo culture with office badminton, ornament contests, and talent showsWhy authenticity and storytelling are your biggest competitive advantages right now, especially in the age of AIAnd she's got a book coming late April, I Bottled My Mother: The Mrs. Meyer Story, Grit, Grime, and Growing a Business, part love letter to her mom, part startup manual. It's the business book that's actually funny and emotionally honest. I cannot wait to get my hands on it. I'm sure it will be a very popular business book.Her advice to her younger self? Slow down and listen more. Mine too, Monica. Mine too.

A library receives a small, unremarkable package… but inside is a book that's more than a century overdue—and a message that was never meant to be read in its own time. In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro unravel the eerie true story of a Victorian-era library book returned over 120 years late, complete with a handwritten note from the original borrower… written with the quiet certainty they would never return it themselves. What follows is a strange, deeply human moment—one that feels less like a forgotten object and more like a message sent forward through time. Who was the borrower? What stopped them from returning the book? And why does their apology still feel so immediate, even now? Then—because balance is important—we pivot hard into something completely different: the wildly real, deeply bizarre world of competitive outhouse racing. Yes, it's exactly what it sounds like. Human-powered toilets. Snow tracks. Championship titles like “gold throne.” You'll never look at plumbing—or Midwestern ingenuity—the same way again. From haunting historical oddities to delightfully ridiculous human traditions, this episode delivers the full Box of Oddities experience: curious, hilarious, and just a little unsettling. Because sometimes… the past doesn't just stay buried. It waits. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Keith Weinhold, when it's time for you to sell your rental property, there's a vehicle you may not have heard of that allows you to exchange it into a partnership. This makes it hands off for you. Defers your capital gains tax and depreciation recapture, while you still can enjoy appreciation and cash flow. It's the exit strategy that helps you retire from landlording, known as the 721 exchange today on get rich education,   Corey Coates  0:34   since 2014 the powerful get rich education podcast has created more passive income for people than nearly any other show in the world. This show teaches you how to earn strong returns from passive real estate investing in the best markets without losing your time being a flipper or landlord.

They help you build a long term plan for growing your real estate empire with leverage. Start your prequel and even chat with President chailey Ridge personally, while it's on your mind, start at Ridge lending group.com, that's Ridge lending group.com,   Speaker 1  1:51   you're listening to the show that has created more financial freedom than nearly any show in the world. This is get rich education.   Keith Weinhold  2:07   Welcome to GRE I'm your host. Keith Weinhold, the voice of real estate investing since 2014 today's show should help a lot of people as you grow your real estate portfolio over time. You add to it and you multiply it. You do that by using more of your own money and more of other people's money and more of your equity from one property to buy another property. But we've all got to begin with the end in mind, today's show is about your exit strategy, how to sell your property, whether it's selling all of them or some of them, and you're doing that in both a tax efficient way and a management efficient way, because it's about how to exchange them into a partnership. Still get financial upside for appreciation and cash flow, but yet you achieve about as much passivity as what you would have with a Schwab or say, Vanguard mutual fund. Now, back when GRE began, over 11 years ago, we wouldn't have done a show like this because most new listeners were in acquisition mode learning about the GRE way, and that might still be true, but today, we've got both new listeners and longtime listeners that have engaged with GRE investment coaches and learned from listening to each weekly episode, and have built their portfolios and have turned get rich education into got rich education. Congratulations. A lot of you have now achieved financial freedom, and you're looking for an eventual exit. Now, even if you own dozens of rental properties like I do, you don't feel much management strain most of the time, because also, like I do, you outsource to property managers, but some of you self manage, and you can then achieve real relief when you exit before we bring in our expert guest and discuss The 721 exchange. Hey, you've seen me write about the Iran war in our newsletter, and you've seen me discussing it on YouTube. The short story is that war is really expensive, war is inflationary, and war in Iran could very well be setting us up for another inflationary wave like we had from 2021 to 2023 I'm probably going to talk more about it next week, if the war is still ongoing, and what it means to real estate investors. Also a lot of great episodes coming up here at GRE including the show debut. Two of Redfin chief economist Darrell fairweather PhD, who will be here with us soon as for this week, let's learn about an efficient real estate exit strategy.   Keith Weinhold  5:17   This week's guest is someone that is going to help a lot of you, so I've really anticipated having him on educated at Harvard and Stanford. He went on to become a somewhat conventional investment manager, until he was motivated by his parents experience as Chicago landlords to launch another venture in 2021 which you'll learn about today. Welcome to GRE Ari Rubin   Ari Rubin  5:42   Keith, thank you so much for having me on the show today, and to all your listeners out there. It's great to meet all of you, and thanks for listening in today.    Keith Weinhold  5:49   Yeah, Rubin is spelled r, u, B, I N, yeah, I understand you've heard from some of our listeners   Speaker 2  5:55    exactly, I actually heard about your podcast and your show from a number of our clients will go more into the problem that we're solving and the types of landlords that we work with, but some of them have been listening you to you for a long time. Some of them got motivated to get into real estate because of your show. So yeah, really excited to be here chatting with you today.   Keith Weinhold  6:17   Well, thanks so much. Basically, what you do is you help people retire from landlording, but not real estate. We'll get more into that later. But a lot of times when investors have been in the direct real estate investing game for a while, they begin to feel like they've got their dollars trapped in this real estate game. And it can be easy to argue there's no other place you'd rather have it, but tell us more about that trapped feeling with managing rental properties.   Speaker 2  6:45   Yeah, So Keith, maybe just to start out, I want to just talk about the problem that we're solving at flock. So as everyone knows, and there's a lot of resources out there, real estate is a great place, a great way to build wealth, and it's a lot of work, and it takes a lot of effort and a lot of skill and a lot of time, but we find that not enough folks think about, once you get in, how do you exit? And just for those on the show who are listening, who aren't even in real estate yet, or maybe they're just a couple of years into real estate, you always want to think about your exit, and at a certain point, once you've owned real estate for five years, 10 years, 30 years, at some point in your life, you're going to want to exit, and that's because, at the end of the day, managing and owning Real Estate takes work. You can hire a property manager, but you still have to manage even the best property manager doesn't really solve all the problems of being a landlord. For example, if you have an eviction, you still have to pay for that. If you have a massive capital improvement, roofs to replace, HVACs to do, you're still on the hook for that. Ultimately, you're liable when you own real estate, right? You could be sued. You have a feeling, and you should be responsible for your residence and for the homes. So at the end of the day, at a certain point, every single person in this world will get to the point where they're like, I'm done owning real estate. I want to retire. I want true peace of mind. But the problem with that is, when you're ready to exit, you got to sell. That's really the only way out. Maybe you're fortunate enough to have some kids who want to take over the business or the properties, but you know, if you're like a lot of clients that we work with, your kids, maybe they're on to bigger and better things. They've moved across the country. Or, you know, this generation doesn't fix things like the last one did, right? And so unless you have kids who are really, really ready to step up and be super hands on, you don't have an exit and selling, of course, triggers a huge tax liability. So when you sell real estate, you not only have to maybe kick out your tenants and stage the house and pay all the frictions and all the fees, the biggest thing is you have to pay capital gains and depreciation or capture taxes. And we'll come back into what all that means and all how that looks like. So in summary, when you sell real estate and you've owned for a long time, you could be faced with losing upwards of 30% of your equity, which is a lot of money. That's a big chunk of your nest egg, of your net worth. You also you love real estate, you've done really, really well with real estate. So at flock, we've built the retirement solution for landlords, and we'll go more into how this all works, but essentially, we help people with the most cost efficient, seamless exit strategy by exchanging their equity for shares. In our larger fund. So that's just very quickly, the problem that we're solving and some of the clients, the problem that we work with   Keith Weinhold  10:08   this is important. I'm a longtime real estate investor. I have not self managed in many years, but I basically asset manage my managers oftentimes reading their monthly statements, replying to emails about various things, but yeah, there is some day in which I probably wish to not have to do that anymore, and indeed, selling it all would incur a steep capital gains tax. Now what I've done is I've done cash out refinances and 1031 exchanges along the way to continue to defer any tax obligation that I have. But of course, when I do a 1031, exchange, I grow my portfolio, and there's more to manage,   Speaker 2  10:50   exactly. So you know, you just laid out two excellent options out there for ways to sort of consolidate, or, you could say, even better, leverage your equity in real estate. You can do a cash out refi, and that's of course, where you pull cash out of the properties so you're more liquid, or you buy more real estate, or you can do something called a 1031 exchange. And Keith, I'm sure a lot of your listeners out there know what a 1031 exchange is, but just for everyone listening in in or in case folks are less familiar, a 1031 exchange is essentially a real estate loophole. It used to apply to artwork and airplanes and a lot of other stuff. Now it's just real estate, and it's a part of the tax code that says you can sell your real estate, and if you follow this process within a certain timeframe, and then use what's called a Qualified Intermediary, you can roll those proceeds forward and buy new real estate and defer that tax liability into the future. Now the benefit to that is you just achieve tax deferral, but as you said, you still own real estate, and so for a lot of younger investors out there, a 1031 exchange is a really effective way to continue to grow their portfolio, or be more thoughtful about their approach. But for longer time real estate investors, a 1031 exchange doesn't really solve your problem. You still own real estate, you're still liable for tenants, for toilets, for trash, right? And so if you're trying to really retire from being a landlord, a 1031 exchange doesn't really do that. And of course, a cash out refi, all that does is just take on more debt and more risk and more liability. Great option if you're young and you're still trying to grow when we hear from a lot of clients, maybe not the best option in the second half of your life as you're really trying to focus on wealth preservation.   Keith Weinhold  12:51   Yes, a lot of our listeners are indeed familiar with the 1031, tax deferred exchange. You're typically trading up and deferring your tax on the way. And that trading up, it really just gets you even more into real estate investing, because with almost every 1031 exchange, you're going to own more doors than when you began the process. However, a lot of people aren't as familiar with the 721 exchange. Why are people less familiar with it? Ari   Speaker 2  13:21   great question, Keith, and you're right, less people are familiar with it. So in plain English, the 721 exchange, it's also part of the tax code. It's not a real estate loophole. It actually applies to equities or many other asset classes. And in plain English, what it says is, Keith, you own, let's say a million dollars worth of assets you can exchange. You can contribute those assets into a partnership and receive back a million dollars worth of shares or units of the partnership. And in doing so, it's a tax deferred exchange. There are some nuances that you have to be mindful of, just like in a 1031 exchange in terms of boots and cash out refis, but as a general rule, it's a lot more flexible and a lot more seamless than a 1031 exchange. And so again, Keith, you sell, you exchange, you contribute your properties into a fund or into a partnership using the 721 exchange. You now own shares of that partnership. You get all the returns and cash flow and ongoing tax benefits from owning shares in the partnership. To your question, why do less people know about the 721 exchange? It's very common in large commercial real estate, big real estate investment trusts have been using the 721 exchange for decades. The problem with it is it's really complicated to do. So these transactions are quite laborious. There's lots of paperwork. Historically, you would need an army of lawyers and accountants and tax professionals just to consummate one of these things. Surely, if you had a $500 million apartment building or office complex, you would be familiar with this. But until now, no one had really built this for the little guy. And I'm putting that in quotes, right? Because, you know, if you own 10 single family rental homes, 50 single family rental homes, even one single family rental home, you could have hundreds of 1000s of dollars, millions of dollars of equity. You're not such a little guy or gal, right? But these are the moms and pops who own the vast majority of real estate in this country. And so our idea at floc was to go out and, for lack of a better term, democratize access, to give access to this really powerful wealth preservation tool, the 721 exchange, a mechanism that's been used by ultra high net worth families and big institutional investors and big Wall Street firms for decades, and really enable it to the masses out there, To the millions and millions of hardworking Americans who have built up these properties, these portfolios, for decades.   Keith Weinhold  16:27   I've got to say I had heard of the 721 exchange quite a long time ago, but it wasn't until last year that I became more familiar with it, and more familiar with what you do, and realizing that this could help an awful lot of people. You're listening to get rich education. We're talking with flock homes founder, Ari Rubin, about the 721 exchange, how it works and how it might be able to help you more when we come back, I'm your host. Keith Weinhold,    Keith Weinhold  16:53   let me throw out a simple idea, sometimes doing nothing with your money is actually a decision. Leaving it parked. Might feel safe, but over time, purchasing power changes. So the conversation isn't about chasing returns, it's about intentionally placing money somewhere. Freedom.

Listen to get rich education with my friend, Keith Weinhold, and don't quit your Daydream. Welcome   Keith Weinhold  19:04   back to get rich Education. I'm your host, Keith Weinhold, here on episode 598 we're talking with flock homes founder, Ari Rubin, where they help real estate investors retire from landlording, but not so much real estate with a 721, exchange is something that can be used for retiring landlords along with active landlords if they're just looking to offload one or two properties to exchange into this partnership that we've been talking about. And Ari on your website. It was interesting. I watched the video of you and a woman where you somewhat had to convince the woman to start this fund that did not have any properties in it yet, which is really interesting. And before we're done, we'll talk about. How many properties you have in the portfolio and how many investors you have, but this is something that an investor can exchange their properties into, and yet they still receive the financial upside of both cash flow and appreciation. So tell us more about that    Speaker 2  20:16   exactly. So I'll just quickly explain how it all works. And I do want to also touch on our first client ever, our first landlord ever. Surely, everyone has their story of how they got started in real estate. But you know, for us, at the end of the day, it's a people business. You know, our clients are the millions and millions of mom and pop landlords out there. Shirley was a single mom, Navy vet physician, had this home that she used to live in. She knew she should be building wealth through real estate, so she held on to the property. It was the middle of covid. She had a long term tenant. The tenant moved out, and she didn't know what to do, and she got mailers every single day on, you know, oh, we'll buy ugly houses and we'll buy this thing, but she didn't want to sell because she knew she didn't want to sell. She wasn't a distressed seller, right? And when she sold, of course, she would be triggering taxes, and she knew real estate was a great asset class to be in, and she didn't want to give up all of that upside. So Shirley was our first client, and she still is with us today, very near and dear to our hearts. And yeah, you should check out the video online. It's an amazing story, and we have many, many stories like that, of families that we've worked with. So Keith, to your question of how it all works, exactly. So Keith or Shirley or Mom and Pop will sell their property. They'll exchange their property for the equivalent value of shares in our fund. So let's say it's a $300,000 house and there's no mortgage on it. We do take properties with a little bit of debt, but let's just say, for easy numbers, you sell the property and you now have $300,000 worth of shares in our fund. So first and foremost, you're no longer responsible or liable for the property. You don't own it anymore. You don't manage it anymore. The tenants, of course, the residents get to stay in the home. It is now one rental property of the many inside of our portfolio that the flock team manages. We collect the rent, we do all the renovations, we hold back for expenses, right? And you are now a fully passive shareholder in this larger partnership. So what does that mean for you? First and foremost, you did not trigger taxes on day one. You get to defer those taxes, just like you would in a 1031, exchange. And of course, you can hold on to it, pass it on to your heirs, who still get the step up in basis. Great. In addition to that, what does this mean that you own shares in this real estate? Well, you're going to get all the returns from the real estate just like you would with your own real estate. So what are the two things that drive returns? The first thing is your paper gains, right? Your equity appreciation. The market goes up in value. Our properties go up in value. You receive appreciation to your equity, to your account. By the way, sometimes markets go down in value. Real Estate doesn't just go up, right? And of course, as that happens as well, your equity account will go down as well. But we believe that over the long term, and if you look back at historical kind of performance of the real estate market, we really believe in single family as an asset class. So that's the first thing that drives your returns. It's the appreciation of the properties. And then, of course, the second thing is the net income. It's the rents that we collect from the properties, less the expenses, property tax, insurance, right, maintenance, vacancy, reserves, all of the regular expenses that you have. We also have, as a large institutional real estate owner, and so those two things together, one, the appreciation, as well as two, the net income drive your total returns from the flock vehicle. You could take cash flow from your investment just like you would from your real estate. We pay that out quarterly. It's never been late. We've been operating since 2021 you know, we have a lot of clients who leave their cash flow in to reinvest it and kind of increase their basis. We have a lot of clients who live on their cash flow like they would Social Security or a pension or something like that, just like they did in their real estate portfolio.   Keith Weinhold  24:44   Now, people sometimes get sentimental about their own home, less sentimental about the rental properties, but if you have any attachment to it, effectively, when you exchange it into this fund, you're still helping get some return from your own. Own properties that you contributed into the fund there, but you're going to be more diversified effectively nationally with the real estate market then   Speaker 2  25:08    exactly. And Keith, you bring up a really great point, which is a lot of our clients and a lot of real estate investors, they're sentimental about their real estate investments, like these are houses that they used to live in, or they built, or they've had the same residents in place for 515, 25, years. I mean, we've literally seen people who have had the same residents in place for a very, very long time, and they have that sentimental attachment. And our clients see one of the benefits to joining flock is they're joining together with other like minded owners to leverage the benefits of scale. They still own that house, but they own it with a bunch of other you know, we now have 1100 homes. We'll soon hit 1500 homes, right? They have some connection to that house, but they're much larger, which means better margins. They're much more diversified. So if, God forbid, something happens that one individual property, their risk is spread out. And of course, you know, they're more passive. They're no longer liable, so on and so forth. So a lot of people really like flock because of that sort of sentimental attachment they have to their real estate. By the way, we also have a lot of people who bought their turnkey providers, or they're just, you know, a business guy or a business gal, and they don't care at all, and they're just like, I don't even know the addresses on these things. Just take this and move on. So we've met and interacted with lots of different types of landlords over the years,   Keith Weinhold  26:43   I'm a turnkey real estate investor. I have not seen most of my properties in person, so there's certainly no sentimental attachment to them. But let's talk more about how it practically works and feels for that investor that say they want to sell three rental, single family homes that total $1 million in value, whether that's their entire portfolio or those three properties are just part of it, would flack do an inspection and then handle the renovations and make an offer   Ari Rubin  27:12   exactly so before I walk you through the process, I want to also just lay out what our incentives Are. We're very different than most real estate buyers. We're not trying to flip houses. We're not a flipper. That's not our business model. That's not how we make money. Our goal is not to buy your houses. You know, in the example, you said three houses worth about a million dollars. Our goal is not to buy them for 900 and flip them and make a quick buck, right? Our goal is to solve this problem for you, to bring you into flock as a client, to of course, then provide you with good financial returns, which means providing the resident with good service, bringing the home up to our standards, hardening the asset and making sure it's a great place to live, and it performs as underwritten. And so what all that means is upfront, we'll give you an initial valuation based on public data, other proprietary data that we have. We'll ask you a couple of questions about the house, and then before we close, we do inspect the property, and after the inspection, our final valuation will either go down in value, if not everything was represented, as you said, or it'll go up in value after inspection, our goal is 50% of the time to increase the value. Okay, which in real estate is kind of a weird concept, because which buyer wants to pay more money? Well, our goal is not to buy low from you, it's to create a fair system for all the clients that have put their properties into flock, right? So we'll then come up with a final valuation. Let's just say, like in your example, a million dollars for those three properties. We then sign what's called a contribution agreement. And by the way, during that period, you're doing due diligence on us. You're getting to know our team. You know people are entrusting us with a lot of money, their real estate, that they've worked, that they know. They know these residents, they know the every corner of that house. So we need to due diligence your real estate, you need to due diligence us, our team, our processes, our systems, our track record, the types of homes that we own. We'll show you every home that we own. We'll walk you through our financials. We get audit. We use a third party fund administrator. We get audited by KPMG every year to make sure our valuations, we use best in class service providers. You'll go through all this information. We do the same. That process typically takes about three to six weeks, and then you come to a decision, Hey, I like flock. I want to move forward. We come to a decision. We like that home. We want to bring it into our fund. It meets our threshold. It's going to be a good investment for all of our investors, all of our clients, in flock. And then we would move forward together that whole process about four to six weeks, and then closing takes about 15 days or so.   Keith Weinhold  30:17   Okay, yeah, it's really important that you offer that renovation and that you take care of that there, I was relieved when I found that out, because really, that's the problem that you're looking to solve to get landlords out of that entire process. And they sure don't want to have to manage another wave of that during their exchange into the fund, and yeah, they want it to be hands off and mostly passive, and therefore have their homes in their flock fund be just about as passive as managing a mutual fund would   Ari Rubin  30:47   be exactly. And that's how we want our clients to think about it. You know, we've seen some folks try to do the renovations on their own. You can do it. We never recommend it, and oftentimes it's more work and more hassle than it's really worth another big thing is, if there's a resident in place, number one for you, kicking out a resident is not a nice thing to do. It's also a drag on your financials. That's several months of no income, right? That you could be earning income, whether it's through flock or elsewhere, and you have expenses, you have insurance, your property taxes during that period. So yeah, we'll take on the whole renovation if required. It's worth adding, by the way, we don't take every property we walk away from, way more properties than we accept. Yeah, you have the buy box. We have a Buy Box, which I'll tell you guys more about. But in addition to having a Buy Box, if a property requires extensive foundation issues or extensive renovations. That's beyond our scope, really, if there's a lot of uncertainty in it, we don't want to be subjecting all of our existing clients to that risk. You know, our view is we never compromise on price, on quality, on risk, and so we don't touch, you know, really messy, really hairy stuff, but we aren't afraid of, you know, rolling up our sleeves, and we'll typically do renovations up to 30% of the value of the home. So we do do a lot of value add work. Some of that is on day one. If it's health and safety and the resident needs certain things, we'll do that on day one. Other things are more value add once the resident decides to leave at some point in the future.   Keith Weinhold  32:23   Well, I'm so glad you brought up earlier about taking care of the tenant, because one of our core missions here at GRE is to do good in the world, provide housing that's clean, safe, affordable and functional. So when it comes to the ongoing property management, I imagine that plays into your Buy Box, where you're only going to have property managers in so many markets, exactly.   Speaker 2  32:45   So we're in about 20 markets around the country. It's kind of a combination of higher yielding markets. These are more like Midwestern markets, Ohio, Michigan, where Memphis, where Baton Rouge. We're also in what I would call more like growth markets, certain markets in Texas where you see really strong net migration right yields are a little bit lower there Denver is similarly as a market where you see a little bit lower yields, but still really positive job growth and economic tailwinds to those markets. We're in about 20 markets. We're open to opening new markets if there's a right kind of partnership and a right strategic portfolio or acquisition or client there. But yeah, we don't take every home, you know. We don't do short term rentals. We really just focus on our bread and butter. What we know how to do, which is one to four unit long term rental properties.    Keith Weinhold  33:39   Well, tell us more about that Buy Box.   Ari Rubin  33:43   So typically, again, we're in about 20 markets or so, also looking to expand. We take single family homes, duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes. We'll look at some condos, but as you know, some HOAs are a little bit too restrictive, and so we just try to stay away from that uncertainty, and then we have a certain yield profile and sort of price range that we're looking to hit. So in every market that differs, in Denver, we wouldn't take over. I think it's a $650,000 home, because once you start getting into the higher which in Denver is actually the median home price is a lot higher in Denver than the national average. Right? In other markets, our average price point, we're in Raleigh and around Raleigh, our average price point in Raleigh is much lower than that. So I'd say on average, our average price point per unit or per door is about $220,000 but yeah, one to four units, we unfortunately don't take pools. Yeah, we don't take properties with pools because of some insurance risks, although we have worked with some owners to bury pools, and it needs to be in a market, just lastly, where we can price it. So if it's a, you know, we're in Denver. That was where we started the business. That's where our headquarters is. You know, if there's a property an hour and two. 20 minutes outside of Denver, kind of in the middle of nowhere on four acres with it's just hard to price that. And so even if we can operate it, we need to make sure we can price it both upfront and then on an ongoing basis. So that's a little bit more about our Buy Box. But if you want to learn more, if you have a larger portfolio, of course, reach out to us. Well, you probably mentioned this, Keith, but it's flatcombs.com/gre, and we'll take a look at your property or your portfolio.   Keith Weinhold  35:29   This can help you retire from landlording, but not real estate. Make it completely hands off for you, but still get financial upside in the form of cash flow and appreciation while getting that tax deferral. And you can effectively make this tax free if these shares are inherited by your heirs with that step up in basis. And you can avoid the capital gains tax, which is typically 15 to 20% depending on your income. And if you have a high income, there's a net investment income tax of 3.8% on top of that, you also had the depreciation recapture to repay if you just sell your property out on the open market, but a 721 exchange prevents you from having to pay for any of that. So you're really solving a terrific problem for people here, Ari and just a great exit strategy for those that want to retire from real estate investing or maybe just sell a smaller portion some problem properties. You have any last thoughts overall about the 721 exchange and how you're helping people with their exit strategy?   Ari Rubin  36:36   Ari, this is like the best kept secret in real estate at the 721 exchange, we're now expanding it to multifamily. Eventually, we want to be doing this for every real estate asset class. I've heard of folks doing this for self storage. One day, we want to do this for gas stations, for small hotels. And really do this across all real estate asset classes. We think the one to four unit space is the most exciting, by far, the largest opportunity, and also the biggest opportunity to really create value for communities and for residents, which is something we're really, really passionate about. And so yeah, I would love to hear from you all. And Keith, thanks again for having me on today. This has been a great show, and I'm a big fan of your listeners and everything you guys are doing here.   Keith Weinhold  37:21   Any savvy investor has to begin with, the end in mind, Ari had a convenient landing page put up to welcome a GRE, listeners again at flockhomes.com/gre this has been valuable, Ari. It's been great having you here.    Ari Rubin  37:36   Keith. Thank you so much. You   Keith Weinhold  37:44   Oh, this has been really informative from Ari Rubin today on an efficient exit strategy that a lot of real estate investors don't know much about, retiring from landlording and yet not retiring from real estate, you're staying in the game, and yet, what you're doing is trading away active management in order to get passive ownership. And it makes sense that they make it hands off and kind of a turnkey exit experience for you. They're not using that term, but I am. If you're looking to retire, you sure don't want to be the one that has to first jump more hurdles at the end and handle an inspection punch list and coordinate with contractors, so they're helping a lot of people, and they seem to be on a good trajectory for success. You know, really, as you're still building your portfolio while you're still in acquisition mode, it's kind of comforting to know that this is out there is an option. It kind of motivates you to want to build your portfolio more now that you know about other options at the end, even if a 721, exchange, time is decades away for you, I don't know if you caught that, they have 1100 homes in their portfolio. Now, as you see over on that landing page that I mentioned, they even simplify your tax filing. You just receive one consolidated annual tax packet prepared by KPMG.

The Dedeaux Download Podcast returns with Shotgun Spratling and podcast co-host Kasey Kazliner breaking down another strong week of action for USC baseball despite the Trojans suffering their first loss of the season in the midst of Midwestern snowstorm. They also talk with the conductor of USC's elite production on the mound, pitching coach Sean Allen, about how his hurlers have been able to have so much success this season. Allen discusses how the Trojans attacked a stretch with eight games in nine days and how his pitchers continue to grow throughout the season with Grant Govel unleashing a slider in his last start and Mason Edwards' continued nastiness with a breaking ball he changed during the offseason. After a break, Shotgun and Kasey take a look at the Trojans' five-game week noting three positives, including the continued success of the starting pitching despite Edwards finally giving up his first run of the season. They also look at the unusual circumstances that contributed to the Trojans having their program-record-tying 19-game win streak snapped. Shotgun and Kasey close out the show taking a look at where the Trojans' stand in the rankings -- making a big jump up to No. 13 in the D1Baseball top 25 -- and previewing another five-game week for Andy Stankiewicz's squad.
