Podcasts about Moneyball

We're podcasting per the launch of the World Cup-tracking Probability Cup, but of course, just had to talk about Wednesday night's NBA Finals classic. The BIG question on my mind: Should predictors/gamblers price in the NBA's massive incentive to make this great series continue? Topics!* Knicks–Spurs Finals comeback analysis and whether San Antonio collapsed or New York surged.* How teams should manage volatility differently when protecting large leads versus playing from behind.* Debate over NBA referee incentives, league interests, and the possibility of series-extension bias.* SportsPredict's World Cup Probability Cup and using prediction contests to identify analytical talent.* Whether modern hiring should adopt a “Moneyball” approach by measuring forecasting skill instead of relying on traditional credentials.* Is the big money in studying idiot sports predictors or geniuses?Again, join our Probability Cup contest and perhaps win an iPad Pro ($1,000 value) or $200 Ticketmaster gift card.

On episode 346 of The AwardsWatch Podcast, Executive Editor Ryan McQuade is joined by AwardsWatch Editor-In-Chief Erik Anderson and AwardsWatch contributors Dan Bayer, Mark Johnson, and Josh Parham to go back 15 years and take a look at the 84th Academy Awards, covering the films of 2011. On this week's retrospective, the AW team returns from Cannes to take a look back at the 84th Oscars, one that was known for having a great selection of films to choose from that the Academy decided to mostly ignore for more middle of the road, safer choices. This lead to a winner that is not remembered as much for a film that defined the year, both from a critical and commercial aspect, and also lead to one of the worst wins in the Best Actress category. So given the nature of the show and the game played by the AW team, change is a coming for 2011, as the following films were mentioned over the courses of lengthy discussions over every category; Weekend, Contagion, Shame, Melancholia, Crazy Stupid Love, Take Shelter, Killer Joe, The Skin I Live In, 50/50, as well as films that were already nominees getting more love like Moneyball, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Warrior, The Tree of Life, Drive, Bridesmaids, and more. In their in-depth discussion, the AW team talked about the film year of 2011, briefly discuss talk about The Artist as a Best Picture winner, and how that speaks to the legacy of their nominates and or wins, do an extensive conversation over the below the line categories and nominees for the year, and then the new version of the AW Shoulda Woulda Coulda game, where instead of individual replacements, they must decide as a group who the nominees and winners should be in the top eight categories. The rules of the game state they can only replace two of the nominees that year from each category, except in Best Picture, where the group could replace up to four films to make up the final set of five nominated films. Like past retrospective episodes, it was a fascinating, fun conversation including spirited debates, alliances, vote swinging, celebrating various movies, performances that aren't normally talked about and more that we all hope you enjoy. You can listen to The AwardsWatch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music and more. You can also listen on the AW YouTube page. This podcast runs 2h52m. We will be back in next week for a review round-up episode discussing some of the newest releases in theaters like Obsession, Backrooms, Masters of the Universe, Power Ballad, Blue Film, Blue Heron, and more.

 In Episode 55 of The MatStats Show, hosts Glenn Gormley, Jason Bryant, and Kevin Hazard continue their "Moneyball" deep dive into the impact of the 3-point takedown rule. Analyzing over 3,300 matches from the 2021–2026 NCAA Championships, the team investigates whether the recent rise in total points is a result of increased action or merely "scoring inflation".  The data reveals a staggering 228% increase in technical falls, prompting Gormley to suggest that bonus-point thresholds have been "cheapened".The hosts propose modernizing the sport by raising the Major Decision margin to 10 points and Technical Falls to 18 or 20 points. This adjustment aims to restore the historical value of dominance in an era where takedowns now account for 59% of all scoring.The episode also features a "College Business Update," highlighting the financial pressures of Revenue Sharing and massive NIL budgets. With top basketball NIL budgets now estimated at $20 million per year, the crew discusses how these external shifts may eventually force Men's Basketball to seek a larger share of NCAA revenues. Slideshow for Episode 55: https://www.mattalkonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/slideshow55.pdfAbout Mat Stats Welcome to the NWCA's latest venture to help our favorite sport.

Compher or Michael Rasmussen if any team is desperate enough.

Transitioning from a clinician to a CEO requires a fundamental shift in how you view your bank account. In this episode of Ask George, Dr. George Hariri reveals the "survival guide" for mastering dental practice profitability. If you've ever felt the frustration of a packed schedule and high production that never seems to translate into a growing bank balance, you are likely missing the "Moneyball" discipline required for true dental business ownership. George shares his personal journey from a revenue-only focus to becoming a disciplined CFO, providing the roadmap for every future owner to follow.The core of dental practice profitability lies in understanding three financial pillars: the Income Statement, the Balance Sheet, and the Cash Flow Statement. George explains why your practice management software might lie to you about your revenue and how to reconcile bank deposits with collections. By mastering financial management for dentists, you can stop guessing and start leading. This episode breaks down the "one month break-even" liquidity rule, ensuring you have enough cash on hand to weather the volatility of dental practice management without the stress of payroll cycles or credit card bills.For those looking to scale, George explores dental growth strategies that prioritize cash-on-cash returns over "paper wealth." He discusses how to utilize a quarterly distribution schedule to accumulate cash before deciding whether to reinvest in the practice or take a personal draw. This approach to sustainable dental practice growth ensures that every dollar you spend—whether on a new operatory, marketing, or coaching—acts as a soldier sent out to bring more soldiers back.Don't let your practice be a high-revenue trap. Learn the dental business strategies that separate struggling associates from wealthy owners. By focusing on dental practice profitability through the lens of cash flow and disciplined reinvestment, you can build a business that generates consistent, predictable wealth.Ready to take the next step in your dental practice journey?

In this episode, Jason Li, CTO of Laurel, reveals how the company is turning timesheets into the AI playbook for the entire knowledge-work economy. Jason breaks down why $2,000/hour lawyers still spend Saturdays manually filling out time in six-minute increments, how Laurel's AI platform automatically captures every click, email, and meeting, and why data (not code) is the only real moat left in the age of the SaaSpocalypse. Jason shares how Ernst & Young is using Laurel to identify high-leverage work, why Laurel deliberately integrates with "decades-old" software like Classic Outlook that most startups ignore, and the counter-intuitive reason your best rainmakers should never be forced into cookie-cutter roles again. He also explains why Laurel doesn't train its own LLM, how they run AI feedback loops that self-iterate prompts, and the frameworks leaders can use to actually measure AI ROI instead of just surveying "did it help?" Key Topics Covered: Why "what gets measured gets managed" is the most important rule in AI adoption The Moneyball insight that changed how Jason thinks about metrics How Laurel auto-generates timesheets for lawyers and accountants Why Ernst & Young chose Laurel for their tax group The hidden cost of manual timesheets for $2K/hour professionals How Laurel maps knowledge work to a company's "work ontology" Why decades-old software (Classic Outlook) is a competitive moat, not a liability The SaaSpocalypse: what survives when AI eats applications How to measure if an AI tool actually delivers ROI Why data, not models, is the real defensible asset in AI Episode Timestamps: 00:00 - Intro 00:25 - The Peter Drucker quote that shaped Jason's career 02:49 - A Moneyball analogy for AI adoption 03:25 - What Laurel actually does: the AI platform that maps time to outcomes 07:19 - Why every business (not just law firms) needs time visibility 09:17 - Inside the Ernst & Young deployment 12:27 - Jason's journey to becoming CTO at Laurel 14:21 - Live product demo: Laurel's work ontology engine 17:49 - How AI shifts the line between high and low leverage work 21:15 - What onboarding a 2,000-person firm actually looks like 23:06 - The technical architecture behind Laurel's desktop client 28:35 - Why Laurel doesn't train its own LLM 29:39 - How Laurel handles AI models "getting worse" overnight 33:35 - Capturing time for work that doesn't happen on a computer 37:17 - AI adoption meets employee behavior change 41:54 - The SaaSpocalypse and why Laurel's moat is data, not software 48:00 - Why Jason left Ironclad to join Laurel 51:16 - Jason's answer to The AI Why's signature closing question Jason Li's Socials: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jasonhli/ Laurel: https://www.laurel.ai Partner Links Upgrade your AI toolkit: https://www.theaireport.ai/ai-executive-pass Subscribe to our free newsletter: https://newsletter.theaireport.ai/subscribe Join the community: www.theaireport.ai/leaders-launch-guide Learn more about your ad choices.

Small business ownership is sold like freedom, then quietly turns into  a group project where you're somehow every group member AND the  substitute teacher. In ROI Podcast® episode 508, Law Smith and Eric Readinger sit down with  Andy Clark — creator of The Whole PIE System™ and author of Getting  The Whole PIE — to talk about how to build a business that's actually  profitable, actually impactful, and (radically) actually enjoyable.  Wild concept. Apparently the goal is not to create a company that  prints money while slowly turning your soul into printer toner. Andy works with small business owners stuck in the messy gap between  "owner-operator" and "actual owner." They have customers, employees,  revenue, meetings, and that special founder disease where every problem  mysteriously circles back to their inbox. Andy walks through how to  get out of the weeds, build real systems, install accountability, and  focus on the metrics that actually drive results. The guys dig into why owners say they want better results but resist  the behavior changes needed to get there, why law firms and  professional services partnerships are uniquely chaotic to run, and  why running a business should at least occasionally feel enjoyable  instead of like a hostage situation with recurring invoices. Andy also shares a real case study from an automatic car wash chain  that grew from 10 to 22 locations and tripled revenue by leaning hard  into customer service — in an industry literally designed to avoid  human contact. Yes. Customer service. In car washes. The bar is on  the floor and somehow still full of opportunity. They also cover Moneyball-style metrics, the Golden State Warriors, AI  readiness for small business, owner bottlenecks, Costa Rica, Canadian  geography, hockey trauma, guitar guys at parties, and whether cake or  pie is the superior food and/or business framework. Listen if you're a small business owner, consultant, professional  services leader, agency founder, lawyer, operator, or anyone who has  ever whispered "I need better systems" while opening another tab and  making the problem worse. ROI Podcast® is hosted by Law Smith and Eric Readinger. Business,  comedy, and enough operational truth to make your Google Calendar  blink twice. Topics: small business growth, business coaching, business strategy,  The Whole PIE System, Andy Clark, Getting The Whole PIE, profit impact  enjoyment, business operations, scaling a small business, owner- operator bottleneck, business systems, customer service strategy, AI  for small business, entrepreneur podcast, business podcast.

Peter Cehlárik už dávno nie je len mladík do počtu, ale vyzretý líder. V najnovšej epizóde podcastu Góly z bufetu sa s moderátormi Marekom Marušiakom a Tomášom Prokopom podelil o mimoriadne otvorený a analytický pohľad na hokej.Bez servítky odhaľuje frustrujúcu sezónu vo švédskom Leksande, kde ofenzívu zabrzdilo šetrenie a defenzívna taktika. „Tím sa skladal s malým rozpočtom a manažér išiel trochu taký Moneyball, ak poznáte ten film,“ vysvetľuje elitný slovenský útočník, ako dokáže defenzívny systém zviazať kreatívnym hráčom ruky.Poslucháčom zároveň detailne a odborne rozoberá herný prejav národného tímu. Otvorene hovorí o chýbajúcej kreativite, mimoriadne náročnom bránení útočníkov či o tom, prečo bytostne neznáša zakladanie útokov cez takzvaný „drop pass“.V pútavom rozhovore nevynechá ani tému zdravo drzej generácie okolo Juraja Slafkovského a s blížiacou sa tridsiatkou odkrýva aj vlastné hokejové plány. Koniec kariéry zďaleka neplánuje a má v tomto smere obrovskú inšpiráciu: „Najideálnejší je asi Roman Červenka. Aký prínos mal pre český hokej a ako dominoval v ligách, kde hral... Chcem hrať ešte dlho.“Vypočujte si túto výbornú sondu do hlavy jedného z najinteligentnejších slovenských hokejistov súčasnosti, ktorý o športe dokáže premýšľať rovnako umne, ako ho hrá.

Lew Wolff didn't set out to become a successful developer or a professional sports team owner. He didn't grow up around business, and by his own account, he stumbled into real estate almost by accident. But over the course of a decades-long career, he would go on to reshape downtown San Jose, partner with 20th Century Fox, and take ownership stakes in teams like the Oakland Athletics and Golden State Warriors.In this episode of Big Shot, Lew sits down with Harley and David to reflect on the unconventional path that led him there. He shares how the sudden death of his father forced him to grow up quickly, how a chance decision in college set him on a career in real estate, and how one unexpected opportunity led to a role at Fox and a headline that would change everything overnight.Along the way, Lew explains why he built his career around partnerships, how he thinks about choosing the right people to work with, and why he has always prioritized relationships over short-term profit. He also reflects on his time in professional sports, including the story behind Moneyball, the challenges of public scrutiny, and the behind-the-scenes dynamics that shaped the future of the A's.—In This Episode We Cover:(00:00) Intro(02:25) Lew's early years growing up in the Midwest(05:54) How his father's death changed his path(10:28) Growing up Jewish in St. Louis(11:43) His first job and move to Los Angeles(14:34) Starting his own firm and selling to Booz Allen(17:18) His work with 20th Century Fox(24:39) Balancing the San Jose development with his work at Fox(27:20) How his studio office helped attract clients(29:21) How Bud Selig led him to buy a stake in the Oakland A's(38:18) Lew's philosophy on partnerships and how to choose them (42:54) Buying and selling his stake in the Golden State Warriors(45:46) The kind of work he enjoys and what he credits for his success(50:42) The story behind Moneyball(54:19) Why he stays focused on the future(55:20) Why he prioritizes relationships over profit(58:57) How he handled negative press as owner of the A's(1:03:48) How the Giants blocked the A's from building a new stadium(1:08:59) How he learned to let things go(1:12:51) Lew and Bud's attempt to integrate their fraternity(1:15:07) His thoughts on Jewish entrepreneurship(1:18:38) What he's most proud of—Where To Find Lew Wolff:• Website: https://www.wolffurban.com/ Where To Find Big Shot: • Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.bigshot.show/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠• YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@bigshotpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  • TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@bigshotshow⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠• Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/bigshotshow/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  • Harley Finkelstein: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/harleyf⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ • David Segal: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/tea_maverick⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠• Production and Marketing: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://penname.co⁠

In this episode, Matt sits down with Sebastian Jimenez, Founder and CEO of Rilla, to explore how AI is changing the way senior living operators coach sales teams, improve tour performance, and increase occupancy. Sebastian breaks down why traditional mystery shopping falls short, what top-performing sales directors do differently, and how AI-powered conversation analysis can uncover the behaviors that actually drive move-ins.Guest BioSebastian Jimenez is the Founder and CEO of Rilla, an AI coaching platform built for in-person sales teams. Backed by Google Ventures, Rilla helps organizations analyze real customer conversations to improve coaching, consistency, and conversion rates. The company has been recognized on the Forbes Cloud 100 and the Forbes Next 1000. Sebastian is also a former stand-up comedian, bringing sharp perspective and energy to conversations about sales, leadership, and technology.Timestamps:02:00 – Matt introduces Sebastian Jimenez, Founder and CEO of Rilla, and sets up the conversation around AI coaching for in-person sales. 02:53 – Sebastian explains what Rilla does and how it helps senior living sales teams record, analyze, and improve prospect tours through AI-powered coaching. 04:13 – Why mystery shopping creates friction, and why sales reps often push back on it. Sebastian compares sales coaching to sports: you cannot coach what you cannot actually see. 09:12 – What separates top-performing senior living sales directors from the average. Sebastian introduces the idea of “Moneyball for sales” and explains how AI can identify the behaviors tied to better conversion rates. 12:04 – The surprising top objection in senior living tours: unit size. Sebastian shares how elite sales performers reframe the conversation from square footage to lifestyle fit. 16:46 – One of the biggest mistakes sales teams make: mishandling the “I'm not ready” objection. Sebastian explains the question top performers ask to uncover the real reason a prospect started touring. 21:39 – Where the ROI shows up. Sebastian shares that Rilla customers saw an average 25.9% increase in tour-to-deposit conversion rates in pilot comparisons. 24:07 – How other industries are using AI coaching, from virtual shadowing to personalized follow-up, and what senior living can learn from them. 28:36 – Sebastian's final takeaway: AI is a tool, not a replacement for strong managers or healthy sales culture. The technology works best when paired with great coaching.

As a business owner, it's easy to get caught up in the day-to-day and lose sight of the bigger picture. We often focus on one area, like sales or marketing, while other parts of the business start to lag. This is why I'm such a big believer in frameworks - they provide the structure needed to ensure the whole business is healthy and moving in the right direction.My conversation with Andy Clark, creator of the Whole Pie System, is all about this holistic approach. We explore why true business success isn't just about the money you make, but also the positive effect you have and the personal satisfaction you get from your work.Here are three key areas we discussed:✳️ The interconnected nature of Profit, Impact, and Enjoyment (PIE) and why you need all three for a sustainable and fulfilling business.✳️ How focusing on customer experience is one of the most powerful levers for increasing both profit and your own enjoyment of the business.✳️ The "Moneyball" approach to business - identifying the unique metrics and drivers of success for your specific industry and building your strategy around them.Based on our conversation, here are three actions you can take this week:✳️ Gain clarity on your business's strengths and weaknesses by taking Andy's 10-minute Whole Pie Health Check.✳️ Free up 2-3 hours a week by creating a 'Stop Doing List' - identifying and eliminating tasks that don't move the needle.✳️ Increase your enjoyment at work by identifying one major frustration in your business and taking a step to eliminate it.Andy's Website : https://thewholepiesystem.comApple Podcast Timestamps(00:00) - Introduction(01:38) - Welcoming Andy Clark and the Whole Pie System(03:13) - Who is Andy Clark?(05:42) - The Three Pillars: Profit, Impact, and Enjoyment(08:13) - Common Blind Spots for Business Owners(11:51) - From Transactional to Tremendous: The Power of Impact(18:25) - Moneyball for Business: Finding Your Key Metrics(22:28) - Leading vs. Lagging Indicators for Your Business(29:28) - What to Expect from the "Getting the Whole Pie" Book(40:39) - Actionable Takeaway 1: The Whole Pie Health Check(42:02) - Actionable Takeaway 2: The Stop Doing List(45:29) - Actionable Takeaway 3: Eliminate a Frustration(49:02) - Where to Find Andy Clark(49:55) - Outro----Get your copy of my Personal Brand Business BlueprintIt's the FREE roadmap to starting, scaling or just fixing your expert business.www.amplifyme.agency/roadmap----Subscribe to my Youtube!!

https://teachhoops.com/ In the era of "Moneyball" basketball, it is easy to get buried under a mountain of data. However, for most high school and youth coaches, "Actionable Analytics" are the only ones that matter. You don't need a Ph.D. in statistics; you need to track the four or five metrics that have the highest correlation with winning. The "Granddaddy" of these is Effective Field Goal Percentage ($eFG%$). Unlike standard field goal percentage, $eFG%$ accounts for the fact that a three-point shot is worth 50% more than a two-point shot. If your team shoots 40% from three, your $eFG%$ is 60%—the same as shooting 60% from two. By tracking this, you can objectively prove to your players why "rhythm threes" and "rim finishes" are the lifeblood of your offense. Beyond shooting, you must master the "Four Factors" of Basketball Success, originally popularized by Dean Oliver. These four metrics typically account for about 95% of the variance in winning: Shooting ($eFG%$) – The most important factor (40% weight). Turnovers (TO%) – How often you give the ball away without a shot (25% weight). Rebounding (ORB%) – How many of your own misses you recover (20% weight). Free Throws (FT Rate) – How often you get to the line and make them (15% weight). If you "win" three out of these four categories in a game, your win probability is over 80%. In the mid-season January grind, use these factors to "Diagnose the Disease." If you are losing games despite shooting well, look at your TO%. Are you "beating yourselves" before the ball even hits the rim? Finally, don't ignore the "Culture Analytics" or "Hustle Stats." These are the metrics that don't always show up in a standard box score but drive your program's "Internal Engine." Track things like "Kills" (three consecutive defensive stops), Deflections, and "Paint Touches." A "Paint Touch"—whether via post-up or dribble drive—is one of the highest predictors of offensive efficiency because it collapses the defense and creates "Long-Closeout" opportunities for your shooters. Use your TeachHoops member calls to "audit" your stat-keeping: are you tracking "fluff," or are you tracking the behaviors that lead to "The W"? By turning the "invisible" into the "visible," you create a data-driven culture of accountability.
