PREVIEW Risks of Placing Small Modular Nuclear Reactors in Military Bases Henry Sokolski Henry Sokolski addressed the Pentagon's Janice program, which planned to deploy very small nuclear reactors on military bases. Major concerns included the need for absolutely perfect air defenses and the threat posed by drones. Because of these issues, the Army ultimately decided not to place the micro-reactors on any forward bases.

In this episode, host Vince Quinn welcomes Sam Piliero to explore how advertising strategy must evolve to serve today's digital‑brands. Sam explains his agency's focus on one‑to‑$10 million e‑commerce companies, how his three‑step “M3 Method” underpins their media buying and execution, and why spending ad budget on new customer acquisition (rather than over‑servicing existing/engaged audiences) is a critical shift. He also discusses how founder‑led content drives growth, how he built his agency culture to support performance, and how aligning content, strategy and operations pays off for both clients and team.Guest BioSam Piliero is the Founder and CEO of The Moonlighters, a performance‑marketing agency that specialises in Facebook and Google advertising for e‑commerce brands in the $1 million‑to‑$10 million revenue range. Previously he worked at VaynerMedia (on the e‑commerce team) and at BarkBox (helping scale the business). He built The Moonlighters around a senior‑only team and a growth‑director model, emphasizing profitability, customer acquisition, modular campaign structures, and founder‑driven content. TakeawaysFocusing the majority of ad spend on new customer acquisition rather than existing/engaged audiences can unlock growth and avoid diminishing returns from high‑frequency retargeting.The “M3 Method” (strategy/structure + “bet the fastest horse” + cost controls/caps) provides a simplified but actionable framework for scaling performance campaigns.A modular campaign structure (e.g., separating new customers vs. engaged vs. existing) improves clarity and performance — instead of simply “top‑mid‑bottom funnel.”Time‑of‑day and day‑of‑week analysis (“betting on the fastest horse”) remains a highly under‑leveraged lever in ad strategy: shifting spend into high‑conversion days/times can improve ROI without new creative.Founder‑led content creates authenticity, builds trust, and serves as a valuable lead‑generation engine when aligned with the business model (not chasing vanity metrics).Building a strong agency culture (paying above market, hiring senior people, giving them skin‑in‑the‑game) reduces churn and drives client results.Content strategy should prioritise value to the ideal audience, not just the highest view‑counts.Many “easy mode” advertising tactics (e.g., broad only audiences, 24/7 uniform spend, ignoring segmentation) still persist — but advanced performance requires going back to fundamentals.Chapters 00:00 Welcome & Intro 00:17 Background of The Moonlighters 01:14 Explanation of the M3 Method (Strategy Structure / Betting the Fastest Horse / Cost Controls) 02:05 Modular ad account structure: new customers vs engaged vs existing 03:05 Why many businesses overspend on existing/engaged audiences 04:34 Why audiences aren't focusing enough on new customer acquisition 04:50 Sam's background: media buying over the past 12+ years, VaynerMedia & BarkBox 06:44 How The Moonlighters built the team & culture (growth directors, senior staff) 08:38 Why culture and team matters for client performance 09:32 Client results: average 41% profit improvement in first 90 days 10:35 Sam's content journey: YouTube, building an audience, leveraging his agency insight 11:48 Content strategy: focusing on value, not just views 13:30 Deep dive into M2 (“betting the fastest horse”) — day of week/time of day optimisation 15:36 Specific examples of power of shifting ad spend timing 16:12 Discussion of founder‑led content and alignment with business model 17:08 New one‑on‑one coaching program: demand from audience, pilot launch 18:50 Program launch / closing thoughts 19:38 How Sam balances agency leadership + content creation 21:32 Why content is the #1 focus (leads, education, positioning) 22:34 Closing: Where to find Sam & how to work with The MoonlightersLinkedIn Follow Sam Piliero on LinkedIn here: Follow Vince Quinn on LinkedIn here:

In this episode of the Data Center Frontier Show, DCF Editor-in-Chief Matt Vincent speaks with Ed Nichols, President and CEO of Expanse Energy / RRPT Hydro, and Gregory Tarver, Chief Electrical Engineer, about a new kind of hydropower built for the AI era. RRPT Hydro's piston-driven gravity and buoyancy system generates electricity without dams or flowing rivers—using the downward pull of gravity and the upward lift of buoyancy in sealed cylinders. Once started, the system runs self-sufficiently, producing predictable, zero-emission power. Designed for modular, scalable deployment—from 15 kW to 1 GW—the technology can be installed underground or above ground, enabling data centers to power themselves behind the meter while reducing grid strain and even selling excess energy back to communities. At an estimated Levelized Cost of Energy of $3.50/MWh, RRPT Hydro could dramatically undercut traditional renewables and fossil power. The company is advancing toward commercial readiness (TRL 7–9) and aims to build a 1 MW pilot plant within 12–15 months. Nichols and Tarver describe this moonshot innovation, introduced at the 2025 DCF Trends Summit, as a “Wright Brothers moment” for hydropower—one that could redefine sustainable baseload energy for data centers and beyond. Listen now to explore how RRPT Hydro's patented piston-driven system could reshape the physics, economics, and deployment model of clean energy.

This first autumn podcast episode features Finnish fashion designer Sofia Ilmonen, who discusses her approach to creating modular, transformable garments that can be reshaped and reassembled like building blocks. Ilmonen details how her use of simple square or rectangular modules contributes to her sustainability goals. She also explains her focus on "sizeless" garments aiming to increase longevity by addressing the poor fit, which she identifies as one of the biggest reasons for discarding clothing. Sofia Ilmonen is a fashion designer whose work centres on modular, transformable clothing that merges sustainability with innovative garment design. At the core of her concept is adaptability — both in silhouette and size — with the aim of promoting a more responsible and inclusive fashion culture. The modular approach extends garment lifespans by allowing pieces to be reassembled and reshaped endlessly.All garments are built from square-shaped modules, a form that not only follows zero-waste cutting principles but also embodies the idea of continuous design. Each module is compatible with any part of a garment and is joined using a unique system of specially designed 3D-printed buttons. This enables infinite transformations without sewing and makes the garments sizeless, adaptable to many body shapes and styles.Sofia's work has been presented in international exhibitions and featured in publications such as British and Scandinavian Vogue. Her Aalto University thesis was recognized with the Marimekko Award and the Finnish Textile and Fashion Prize, and she received the prestigious Mercedes-Benz Sustainability Prize at the Festival de Hyères. Her modular collections have also been showcased at Berlin and Copenhagen Fashion Weeks.Before founding her own label, Sofia worked extensively in London in roles ranging from seamstress and creative pattern cutter to designer. Her three years at Alexander McQueen, immersed in the world of high fashion and craftsmanship, left a profound influence on her design philosophy and continue to shape her practice today.Support the showThank you for listening!

Andrew Humberman BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Andrew Huberman has been remarkably active over the past week with a series of high-profile contributions across science, wellness, and media. According to the latest Jump Rope Digest from Elite Jumps, Dr. Huberman has sparked a new fitness mini-trend by advocating for adults to start skipping rope again, discussing neurobiological benefits for coordination and longevity. This has generated a flurry of fitness influencer activity on Instagram and TikTok referencing Huberman's advice, quickly turning his suggestions into one of October's most shared wellness tips.In podcasting news, Huberman just dropped a substantive Huberman Lab episode on October 27th, focusing on the lymphatic system's vital role in overall health and even appearance. He explained practical science-backed methods for supporting lymphatic health, including movement protocols, breath techniques, hydration strategies, and even facial massage tools. This episode has already hit a strong public nerve, racking up comments across X and Reddit, with #HubermanLymph trending as listeners post before-and-after pics of their “de-puffed” faces, crediting his protocol. Men's Journal and several science blogs picked up his key points, giving headlines like ‘Andrew Huberman Demystifies Your Body's Detox System with Surprising Tools'.Business-wise, Huberman was a featured speaker at Modular 2025 in Atlanta on October 22. Sharing the bill with Casey Neistat, he addressed executives on merging neuroscience with authentic content creation in the age of AI, emphasizing human emotional engagement as the antidote to algorithmic blandness. Attendees described his remarks as “TED-quality,” and his backstage moment with Neistat drew buzz from both the neuroscience and creator communities.Across his social channels, Huberman has also doubled down on the science of gratitude, summarizing new peer-reviewed research on how gratitude can measurably boost mental and physical health. Clips from his October 22 “Science of Gratitude” essentials episode are being widely shared on Threads and LinkedIn, where he's amassed hundreds of thousands of views and sparked debates among clinicians regarding best gratitude practices.There have been no credible negative headlines or controversies involving Huberman in the past few days. Some speculative posts on anonymous forums reference unnamed business partnerships, but these remain unconfirmed with no reputable source validation. All in all, Huberman has had a week packed with biographical significance: influencing mainstream health behavior, shaping business thinking around neuroscience, and driving public conversations on both physical and mental wellness, while remaining free of controversy according to current verified reports.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

The payments landscape is experiencing regulatory upheaval, forcing financial institutions to rethink their approach to money movement modernization. With ISO message format changes, Swift updates, and evolving fraud requirements hitting simultaneously, banks are facing a complex web of compliance demands that require immediate attention. "The regulatory agenda for money movement is probably one of the most aggressive we have," said Elaine Duff, SVP and Head of Money Movement at FIS. "It's across the globe. We're seeing the ISO message intended to help firms standardize their messaging, become more efficient, and make their operations much more standardized." Yet the scale of change extends far beyond simple messaging updates. The oncoming change affects fraud tools, digital channels, reporting formats, and entire operational workflows. For many institutions, the traditional rip-and-replace approach to modernization has become both financially and operationally untenable. Nick Dovaras, Global Account Manager at AWS, emphasized the broader pressures driving urgency: "There's customer expectations as well. Customers are expecting 24/7, instant, and customer-friendly mobile applications that are connected to online systems.” Dive into this episode to hear about how financial institutions are navigating regulatory pressures through modular modernization strategies. FIS' Duff and AWS' Dovaras break down the critical role embedded fraud protection is playing in real-time payments, and why cloud-based solutions are enabling banks to modernize their money movement capabilities without the risks of traditional rip-and-replace approaches.

Are humanoid robots distracting us from the real unlock in robotics ... hands? In this TechFirst episode, host John Koetsier digs into the hardest (and most valuable) problem in robotics: dexterous manipulation. Guest Mike Obolonsky, Partner at Cortical Ventures, argues that about $50 trillion of global economic activity flows through “hands work,” yet manipulation startups have raised only a fraction of what locomotion and autonomy companies have. We break down why hands are so hard (actuators, tactile sensing, proprioception, control, data) and what gets unlocked when we finally crack them.What we'll talk through ...• Why “navigation ≠ manipulation” and why most real-world jobs need hands• The funding mismatch: billions to autonomy & humanoids vs. comparatively little to hands• The tech stack for dexterity: actuators, tactile sensors (pressure, vibration, shear), feedback, and AI• Grasping vs. manipulation: picking, placing, using tools (e.g., dishwashers to scalpels)• Reliability in the wild: interventions/hour, wet/greasy plates, occlusions, bimanual dexterity• Practical paths: task-specific grippers, modular end-effectors, and “good enough” today vs. general purpose tomorrow• The moonshot: what 70–90% human-level hands could do for productivity on Earth ... and off-planetChapters00:00 Intro—are we underinvesting in robotic hands?01:10 Why hands matter more than legs (economics of manipulation)04:30 Funding realities: autonomy & humanoids vs. hands08:40 Locomotion progress vs. manipulation bottlenecks12:10 Teleop now, autonomy later—how data gets gathered14:20 What's missing: actuators, tactile sensing, proprioception17:10 Perception limits in the real world (wet dishes, occlusions)22:00 General-purpose dexterity vs. task-specific ROI26:00 Startup landscape & reliability (interventions/hour)29:00 Modular end-effectors and upgrade paths30:10 The moonshot: productivity explosion when hands are solvedWho should watchRobotics founders, VCs, AI researchers, operators in warehousing & manufacturing, and anyone tracking humanoids beyond the hype.If you enjoyed thisSubscribe for more deep-tech conversations, drop a comment with your take on the “hands vs. legs” debate, and share with someone building robots.Keywordsrobotic hands, dexterous manipulation, humanoid robots, tactile sensing, actuators, proprioception, warehouse automation, AI robotics, Cortical Ventures, TechFirst, John Koetsier, Mike Obolonsky#Robotics #AI #Humanoids #RobotHands #Manipulation #Automation #TechFirst

We've talked about the financing. We've talked about the investments. Now, we're talking about the build.If you tuned in for our past discussions on attainable housing, you know that manufactured and modular homes are key to closing the housing gap. But how can the average person leverage these innovations to build wealth right in their backyard?This week on Exit Strategies Radio Show, we go straight to the source. Host Corwyn J. Melette sits down with Harrison Langley, CEO and visionary for MDLR Brands, to introduce a perspective previously unexamined on the show: the direct, technology-driven path to affordable ADU construction. Harrison breaks down his company's use of fiberglass Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs), a specialized technology that moves construction from weeks to days, radically reducing labor costs and waste. This is the new blueprint for micro-level, high-quality, and highly attainable building—especially for the owner-builder.This episode shifts the focus from lending and institutional investment to the literal nuts and bolts of the product. Harrison provides tangible costs, timelines, and the construction methods that empower individuals to take control of the building process and overcome the affordability crisis themselves.Key Takeaways:6:04 Eliminating Construction Waste: Factory building greatly reduces material waste, making the construction process cleaner, faster, and more economical.8:21 Modular is the Highest Standard: Understand why modular construction holds the top rating for factory-built systems at the state level, ensuring you get quality and durability.14:26 The Price is Right: ADU Affordability: Harrison reveals how a DIY-managed ADU project, using a kit under $24,000 for the structure, can result in all-in costs (excluding land) between $55,000 - $70,000.18:37 Financing for the Small Project: Discover why specialized national lenders are finally making construction financing accessible for these smaller, affordable ADU loans.22:30 Build Your Structure in Days: Learn how panelized systems are so fast that a structure can be erected in just 2-3 days, dramatically slashing expensive labor time.Connect with Harrison:Website: www.mdlrbrands.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Modular-Brands/61561753104174/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ModularbrandsllcEmail Address: norman@ardorpr.comConnect with Corwyn:Contact Number: 843-619-3005Instagram:⁠ https://www.instagram.com/exitstrategiesradioshow/⁠FB Page:⁠ https://www.facebook.com/exitstrategiessc/⁠Youtube:⁠ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxoSuynJd5c4qQ_eDXLJaZA⁠Website:⁠ https://www.exitstrategiesradioshow.com⁠Linkedin:⁠ https://www.linkedin.com/in/cmelette/⁠Shoutout to our Sponsor: Mellifund Capital, LLCNeed funding for your next real estate flip or build?

Designer-turned-entrepreneur Phil Franks (Nucleus Creative; Owl & Key) joins Rodric to unpack what he learned building for brands like Hilton, Panda Express, and Victoria's Secret—and why the real unlock in any business is people, process, and presence. Phil shares how becoming a dad pushed him to leave agency life, the SOP mindset he now “lives and dies by,” and why modular construction has him excited to build tighter, faster, and smarter. They trade notes on coaching, niche focus, CAC-thinking for builders, and the difference between hiring as an expense vs. an investment. If you're stuck doing $600/hour tasks for $0/hour outcomes, this one is a breath of fresh air—and a nudge to get out of your own way.Timestamps & Topics00:00 – 02:15 Meet Phil: agency roots, early web, learning under the hood of big brands.03:05 – 07:30 Fatherhood reframe → leaving the agency; building a family “office” with two companies.09:04 – 12:30 What big brands taught him: SOPs, repeatability, and “people architecture.”13:50 – 16:00 Rodric's $600/hr test and the shift from building houses to building people.18:22 – 21:10 Why modular/panelized is compelling; finding the right GC to protect margin.21:46 – 24:25 Listener Q: “What are you chasing?” Phil on alignment through seasons.25:05 – 29:50 Coaching, circles, and picking clients (and when to walk away).30:57 – 37:45 Ground zero → $65k MRR: brand, offers, and niche clarity for builders.36:47 – 40:40 Niche > noise; using CAC to think like a modern builder.HighlightsSOPs aren't paperwork—they're profit protection and peace of mind.Build “people architecture” before you scale product or projects.Delegate anything below your target hourly value; stay in your $600/hr lane.Modular/panelized can compress timelines—if your on-site team truly understands the system.Niche wins: speak to one bleeding-neck problem for one person.Think CAC, not “free referrals”—paying great partners can be your best deal flow.Pull Quotes“Things have to flow. People have to know how they work, and they have to be repeatable.” —Phil“You've got to go from building houses to building people.” —Rodric“Niche feels counterintuitive—until it works.” —Phil & Rodric“What are you chasing?
