[00:30] Is Peace Breaking Out in Gaza and Ukraine? (33 minutes) President Donald Trump's peace plans for Gaza and Ukraine do not target the underlying problems that caused these conflicts. Negotiating with terrorists and tyrants is deranged behavior, but the Trump administration is fixated on money and peace. [33:00] Thomas Crooks and COVID Derangement Syndrome (17 minutes) Failed Trump assassin Thomas Crooks's extremely violent online footprint somehow didn't raise any red flags for the FBI.

This episode takes you inside the reality of becoming a systems integrator and growing a technical services business from the ground up. Vlad and Dave share their personal experiences launching and running integration companies, the lessons they learned as engineers moving into business ownership, and the challenges that come with finding customers, choosing technologies, setting rates, managing cashflow, and hiring the right people. This is a detailed and candid look at what the journey actually requires. It is also a practical conversation that breaks down how technical professionals can evolve beyond pure engineering work in order to build a sustainable integration practice in the world of manufacturing and industrial automation.The episode begins by grounding the definition of a systems integrator in the context of modern industrial environments. Vlad and Dave explore the many different shapes and levels of integrators across the ISA eighty five and ISA ninety five landscape, from controls and PLC programming to SCADA development, MES implementations, and specialized software delivery. They also explain why customers hire integrators, why the most valuable asset is always the people, and why the hardest part of the work is rarely technical. Vlad shares insights from his decade in engineering and operations roles at Procter and Gamble, Kraft Heinz, and Post Holdings, followed by senior engineering and management positions at multiple systems integration firms. Dave brings his experience from aerospace, OEM machine building, distribution, and running his own integration business focused on manufacturing execution systems and ignition development.The conversation then shifts to the earliest stages of starting an integration company. Vlad and Dave describe the moment when most professionals decide to go out on their own, which usually begins with feeling constrained by corporate structures or wanting more autonomy over the projects they work on. They break down the difference between being a contractor and building a long term business and why many technical founders underestimate the reality of sales, marketing, legal administration, cashflow management, and relationship building. The discussion highlights how timing and relationships drive early opportunities far more than technical ability and why every contract carries its own risk profile that needs to be negotiated with care.Listeners are then guided through the real startup requirements for a systems integration company. This includes liability insurance, business registration, accounting and bookkeeping tools, mileage and expense tracking, choosing an internal technology stack, managing licenses, and understanding when to invest in programming software or rely on customer owned licenses. Vlad and Dave explain the role of net thirty, net ninety, and even net one hundred eighty payment terms and why long payment cycles can destroy cashflow if not anticipated correctly. They also share practical frameworks for setting hourly rates, pricing time and materials versus fixed projects, and calculating the true cost of travel, administration, and sales time that erode billable hours.Timestamps00:00 Introduction to systems integration month01:10 Vlad background and career in manufacturing and automation03:00 Dave background and experience running an integration company04:40 What a systems integrator actually is in modern manufacturing07:50 The blurry line between integrators machine builders and software providers08:50 Why people decide to start a systems integration company12:40 Contractor mindset versus building a real business16:50 Early startup requirements insurance registration tools licenses22:00 Sales marketing and the challenge of finding early customers27:00 How timing relationships and visibility drive new work30:00 Referrals partnerships and brand building for technical founders33:20 Understanding financials hourly rates project rates and risk40:00 Negotiating payment terms net cycles and cashflow management43:30 Technology choices internal tools external platforms and vendor ecosystems51:10 Should you specialize or learn every platform54:20 When to say no and how to evaluate incoming work58:00 Hiring your first employee and the reality of scaling01:03:20 The future of systems integration over the next three to five years01:08:00 Final career advice for engineers considering integration01:12:00 Resources and closing thoughtsSystems integrators articlehttps://www.joltek.com/blog/system-integratorsManufacturing consulting insightshttps://www.joltek.com/blog/manufacturing-consultingDigital transformation in manufacturinghttps://www.joltek.com/blog/digital-transformation-in-manufacturingIndustrial cybersecurity fundamentalshttps://www.joltek.com/blog/industrial-cybersecurity-ics

Ben McChesney spent 25 years behind bars, serving time in more than a dozen state and federal prisons across the country — from low-level facilities to some of the toughest penitentiaries in America. His story is one of chaos, survival, and defiance. After being accused of stealing several pallets of firearms in what became one of the largest gun heists in his state, Ben went on the run to Mexico for two years before being captured. Acting as his own attorney, he fought multiple cases, beat a federal kidnapping charge, and survived years of violence and transfers across 14 federal prisons. Inside, he ran underground poker tables, fought predators, and lived by his own code. Raw, unfiltered, and brutally honest, Ben's story exposes the reality of long-term prison life, corruption, and what it truly takes to survive 25 years in the system. #LockedInWithIanBick #PrisonStories #TrueCrime #LifeInPrison #RedemptionStory #RealStories #PrisonLife #SurvivingPrison Thank you to BLUECHEW for sponsoring this episode: Visit https://bluechew.com/ and use promo code LOCKEDIN at checkout to get your first month of BlueChew & pay five bucks for shipping.

Mark Salisbury shares the secrets to spending less on the cost of college! As the founder of TuitionFit, explains how the college pricing and financial aid system is designed to favor schools over families. He describes how emotional marketing, opaque pricing, and complex financial aid forms create confusion and limit families' leverage. he outlines how students and parents can regain control by defining their price range first, using resources like TuitionFit and net price calculators, and strategically managing assets, timing, and financial disclosures. He also covers how income, savings, and family structure affect aid, and more! We discuss...  Mark Salisbury explains how the college pricing system is intentionally vague, designed to benefit schools rather than families. This conversation exposes how the financial aid process operates like a hidden marketplace where families unknowingly pay vastly different prices for the same education. Mark explains the difference between a school's sticker price, discount rate, and net price, emphasizing that the last is what truly matters. He details how the FAFSA and CSS Profile collect information that can be used by colleges to assess a family's financial "willingness to pay." Timing and disclosure of assets can dramatically impact how much financial aid a family receives. Families with business ownership structures may have advantages in how assets and income are reported. Fnancial aid formulas often penalize savings while rewarding debt. Salisbury argues that families should start with their budget first, then find schools that fit within that price range—rather than applying and hoping for aid. Tools like TuitionFit help families compare real financial aid offers and discover the true market price for college. He advises against oversharing financial information before admission decisions are made to preserve negotiation leverage. Negotiating college costs is compared to buying a car—where informed consumers who know their target price get better deals. Transparency and data sharing among families are key to fixing the broken college pricing system. Mark calls for systemic reform to make higher education pricing fairer, more transparent, and tied to real market value.

Although they cater to different senses, photography and music share much in common. In both these arts, timing, rhythm, and mood are key. It's been a while since we've mixed photography and music on the show, so we're particularly excited about today's chat with two photographers who share a passion for documenting musicians and their fans—in particular, devotes of punk and indie rock. From early memories of being truly moved by music to practical tips about photo access, image rights and restrictions, plus the complexities of organizing your work for a book, the conversation doesn't miss a beat. So, turn up the volume as Bootsy Holler reminisces about dropping into the Seattle music scene in the early 1990's to capture the raw energy of her favorite bands, now compiled in the book Making It: An Intimate Documentary about the Seattle Indie, Rock and Punk Scene. And Chris Ortiz describes how the house parties he captured at a punk commune in Kansas served as the foundation for his skills as a music photographer with a keen eye for differentiating himself in the photo pit. As Chris points out when it comes to preparing for a show. "It goes back to knowing that music and knowing the band, and being able to sit back and say, Yes, I am a fan of the band, but I also am professional, so this is what I'm going to look for when the band comes out."

On today's show we are talking about negotiating with a lender. We have a loan application in process that has taken much longer to finalize than promised. It often happens that a project has complexity associated with it. The lender puts the data room into underwriting and what comes out the other end often is surprising. Surprises at this stage are usually not good surprises. The terms at closing can differ significantly from the terms offered in the signed term sheet. This is where it is important to ask questions. Why did you reduce the loan amount? Why did you increase the interest rate? Why did you increase the loan interest reserve to such a high level? It's through this process that you can gain an understanding of how the lender is looking at the project. We have a file in front of a lender right now that experienced several misunderstandings. -----------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)

In a world where the health care system often feels stretched to its limits, the voices of those who dedicate their lives to healing others can too easily go unheard. Yet behind every mask and every pair of scrubs lies a human story — of compassion, resilience, and often, quiet exhaustion.  In this episode of The Art of Feminine Negotiation, Cindy Watson sits down with Marcia Jacobi for an insightful and heartfelt conversation on Negotiating Healing and Care: Giving Voice to Health Care Workers and Restoring Humanity in the Health Care Conversation.  Marcia has been part of the health care world since the 1980s and is the co-author of the best-selling series If These Scrubs Could Talk. A passionate advocate for those who wear scrubs, Marcia is on a mission to combat burnout and build a strong, supportive community for health care professionals. Through her movement and her books, she's helping those on the front lines feel seen, heard, and valued—reminding us all that caring for the caregivers is just as essential as caring for the patients. Join Cindy and Marcia as they explore how to restore compassion, connection, and humanity in the health care conversation. In  this episode, you will learn: The inspiration behind launching the If These Scrubs Could Talk movement. The emotional and psychological impact the system has on health care workers, and how can storytelling or other strategies can help address that? How the healthcare system evolve and how frontline workers are treated and valued? How the art of negotiation plays a role in health care environments. How can the so-called feminine traits like empathy, vulnerability, collaboration can maybe help reshape the future of health care? What role does leadership play in shaping these negotiations, and what negotiation strategies can health care workers use to advocate for themselves and their well-being? And many more!   Learn more about Marcia: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcia-jacobi-403b22379/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61576961120633 Email: admin@talkingscrubs.net If you're looking to up-level your negotiation skills, I have everything from online to group to my signature one-on-one mastermind & VIP experiences available to help you better leverage your innate power to get more of what you want and deserve in life.

Joel Friedland - The Deal That Changed My Life In this episode of The Deal That Changed My Life, we welcome back Chicago industrial real estate investor Joel Friedland to share the incredible story of a deal that completely transformed his career. Joel has purchased more than 100 industrial buildings with over 250 investors across the Chicago area—but one deal in Elmhurst, Illinois, stands out above the rest. What started as a vacant 100,000-square-foot warehouse once home to Keebler turned into a 15-year lease with Comcast and an unbelievable 40% cash-on-cash return. From panic over a year-and-a-half vacancy to landing a dream tenant—and even getting his cable fixed along the way—Joel breaks down what made this deal the best (and luckiest) of his career.

What if we reframed our dislike of office politics and saw it instead as a way to help our teams get the recognition they deserve?In complex organizations, politics and strategic networking aren't distractions. They're often the hidden drivers of influence, credibility, and career growth.In this episode of Let's Talk, People, Emily sits down with Audrey Greenberg Venture Partner and Chair of Business Development at Mayo Clinic, to explore how leaders can navigate politics with integrity, build meaningful networks, and advocate for themselves and their teams.Together, they unpack why sponsorship outpaces mentorship, how to “pre-wire the room” before decisions, and what it takes to balance transparency with influence when the stakes are high.Whether you're aiming for a promotion, championing a rising star, or working to break silos, this episode will reshape how you view politics at work and reveal why relationships may be your most powerful leadership tool.Timestamps: [00:08:03] Sponsors, mentors, and visibility - Audrey and Emily unpack why career growth requires mentors (guidance), sponsors (advocacy when you're not in the room), and intentionally created visible moments so your work isn't left to chance.[00:19:29] Negotiating from abundance, not scarcity - Practical negotiation guidance: lead with gratitude, present evidence/benchmarks, ask for shared-success outcomes, and consider levers beyond immediate cash (equity, review cadence, bonus).[00:23:05] Beyond salary: creative levers of recognition - A focused discussion on alternatives to immediate pay increases: equity, title changes, flexibility, PTO, and other levers that can retain and recognize people (and often cost less than cash).[00:31:07] You can be both human and high-performing - Audrey challenges the myth that you have to choose between being human or high-performing, showing how presence and performance actually fuel each other.Access the episode transcript.Join the Conversation: This year we're taking audience questions!

Midlife is often painted as a crossroads — a time of uncertainty, shifting identities, and quiet reckoning. Yet, for many women, it's also the moment when clarity begins to emerge, when the noise fades and the true voice within starts to speak. It's a time to renegotiate not just with the world, but with oneself — to reclaim agency, power, and purpose in new and profound ways. In this conversation, Cindy Watson and Dr. Marcia Harris will discuss about Negotiating Power For Midlife Women, together we will discover what midlife can mean. Drawing from Dr. Harris's extensive medical background and her deep understanding of women's experiences, we will explore how women can step into their full power during this pivotal chapter — negotiating boundaries, priorities, and possibilities with grace, confidence, and authenticity. This is not just a discussion about aging. It's a conversation about awakening — about redefining what it means to live, lead, and thrive as a woman in midlife and beyond. In this discussion, we will discover: How modern medicine fail women, particularly those going through menopause? Why so many women feel dismissed or misdiagnosed when they show no symptoms? Common myths or misconceptions around menopause? What is bioidentical hormone optimization? What does it mean to negotiate a with your bodies as women. And many more!

The Postponement of the Budapest Meeting and Negotiating with Putin. Cliff May discusses the postponement of the Trump-Putin Budapest meeting, attributing it to Marco Rubio insisting on a cessation of hostilities, which Foreign Minister Lavrov rejected, demanding "all Ukraine." May warns President Trump against being outnegotiated, referencing Stalin's success over Roosevelt and Churchill at Yalta. Putin admires Stalin, who expanded the Russian Empire and engineered the Holodomor famine. May stresses that Russians negotiate only to win, not to compromise. 1921 RED ARMY

SHOW 10-24-25 CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT CANADA  IN THE EYES OF THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION. FIRST HOUR 9-915 Pennsylvania Aims to Be AI Capital with US-Made Non-Lithium Batteries. Salena Zito reports on Governor Shapiro's plan to establish Pennsylvania as the AI and data center capital, capitalizing on its energy resources and university system. She focuses on EOS, a Turtle Creek company making non-lithium batteries that are 97% US-made, countering reliance on Chinese lithium. AI data centers require high energy reliability, favoring coal and natural gas infrastructure. Governor Shapiro supports this buildout, including a $22 million grant for EOS. 915-930 Italian Olive Harvest and Historical Vatican-UK Royal Visit. Lorenzo Fiori reports that the olive harvest in Tuscany is expected to be low in quantity due to mosquito damage caused by humidity and rain. However, recent strong winds helped remove damaged olives, potentially ensuring a "very tasty" oil. Fiori also discusses the historical visit of King Charles III to the Vatican's Sistine Chapel to pray with Pope Francis. This event, which Fiori found spectacular, is seen as crucial for restoring dialogue between the Anglican and Catholic Churches after centuries of division. 930-945 Small Business Economy Steady; AI Remains a 'Toy'. Gene Marks reports on the small business economy, noting steady activity among machine parts manufacturers, often preparing for an "onshoring boom." Construction and housing are holding steady but anticipate a future boom as interest rates decline. Tariffs have a muted impact, often absorbed or passed on as separate invoice line items for transparency. Marks demonstrates that AI, despite its advances, is not ready for prime-time business use, failing to accurately generate a requested image of a Yorkshire Terrier hitting a home run. 945-1000 Small Business Economy Steady; AI Remains a 'Toy'.

SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Pacific Palisades Housing Dispute and West Coast Infrastructure Challenges. Jeff Bliss covers West Coast issues, including traffic disruption from new high-speed rail construction between Southern California and Las Vegas. Pacific Palisades residents are protesting state and local plans to use burned-out lots for high-density, multistory affordable housing, fearing the change in community character and increased traffic. Additionally, copper theft from EV charging stations is undermining Los Angeles's zero emissions goals. Homeless encampments are also sparking major brush fire concerns in areas like Malibu and the Sepulveda Basin. 1015-1030 Pennsylvania Pursues Data Center Hub Status, Converting Golf Courses. Jim McTague reports on Pennsylvania's effort to become a data center hub, citing over $90 billion committed investment statewide. York County secured $5 billion, with plans including converting Brierwood Golf Course into a data center. This effort faces public resistance fueled by fears of higher electricity and water prices. McTague notes that consumer spending in Lancaster County is "steady." The conversion of golf courses reflects the decline of golf, seen as a "dinosaur" activity that takes too much time. 1030-1045 Professor Epstein Slams Trump's Economic Policies as 'State Socialism'. Professor Richard Epstein analyzes four Trump administration economic decisions concerning Intel, Nvidia, US Steel, and MP Mining, labeling them forms of state-owned enterprise or "state socialism." Epstein argues that acquiring golden shares or negotiating side deals—like Nvidia paying 15% of China revenue—destroys market value, undercuts competitors, and violates the neutral application of laws. He also critiques the Gaza deal, stating Hamas must be wiped out before any subsequent phases of the agreement can proceed. 1045-1100 Professor Epstein Slams Trump's Economic Policies as 'State Socialism'.

THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 cMcNamara at War: Loyalty, Secrets, and the Vietnam Conflict. Professor William Taubman discusses Robert McNamara's complicated role during the LBJ years. McNamara enabled the Vietnam War escalation, notably misrepresenting the Gulf of Tonkin incidents to Congress. Despite later secretly opposing the war ("I want so badly to bring the boys home"), he remained silent due to loyalty to Johnson and the presidency. Taubman also details McNamara's role spying on the Kennedys for LBJ and his "loving" relationship with Jackie Kennedy. His post-Pentagon role at the World Bank served as a form of repentance. 1115-1130 cMcNamara at War: Loyalty, Secrets, and the Vietnam Conflict.

FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 Trump Administration's Economic Interventionism Questioned as 'State Capitalism'. Veronique de Rugy critiques the Trump administration's economic policies regarding companies like Intel, US Steel, and MP Mining, calling them "state capitalism" or forms of nationalization. She argues that the government acquiring a minority share in Intel creates bad incentives and unfair competitive advantages. Regarding MP Mining, de Rugy notes that guaranteeing a price floor fails to address the underlying issue of government regulation hindering rare earth production in the US.E 1215-1230 The Postponement of the Budapest Meeting and Negotiating with Putin.

Bob Zimmerman discusses NASA's Artemis program, noting Administrator Sean Duffy is using a social media feud with Elon Musk as a "shiny object" to distract from the Orion capsule's untrustworthy heat shield risks. Other space issues include China's dangerous rocket debris crashes, some using highly toxic fuels, and European satellite companies consolidating into Project Bromo due to competition. Zimmerman also highlights the discovery of a large asteroid orbiting near Venus and Lockheed Martin's investment in Venus Aerospace's radical rocket engine design. 1245-100 AM NASA's Artemis Woes, Chinese Debris, and Global Space Industry Shifts.

Putin's Yalta Model: Out-Negotiating Donald Trump. Cliff May, writing for the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, looks at Putin's ambition to out-negotiate Donald Trump by emulating Stalin's success at the 1945 Yalta Conference. Stalin won that round of negotiations against Churchill and Roosevelt, securing Poland and much of Eastern Europe. This outcome was partly facilitated because Roosevelt, who was ill and viewed himself as a mediator, thought he could handle Stalin. The discussion reviews history to see if this model foreshadows future negotiations over Ukraine.

It's officially fall, and that means we're deep into the MLB playoffs, and the NHL, NFL and NBA seasons are in full swing. With it being such an exciting time for professional sports, we thought it'd be an opportune moment to revisit an episode we recorded in April, where Doug Perlman, CEO of Sports Media Advisors, demystifies the complex process of negotiating league media rights. We hope you enjoy this fascinating look into the evolution of sports media licensing in a post-cable world.  Summary: Major sporting events used to be clustered among a handful of TV channels. Now following your favourite team might require subscriptions to a whole litany of cable and streaming services. Which is to say nothing of all the licensed content you'll find spread out across social media platforms. In such a complex media ecosystem, how do organizations even begin to think about licensing their media assets? And how do they calculate their worth?Doug Perlman is the founder and CEO of Sports Media Advisors. SMA advises sports properties on their media strategies and rights negotiations. Doug has negotiated tens of billions of dollars in rights fees for some of the largest sports properties in the world, including the NFL, NASCAR, US Soccer, and the Ryder Cup, among others. Doug joins us today to discuss recent trends like the rise of streaming, the popularization of sports betting, and the emergence of AI, and all the unique challenges and opportunities they present for different leagues and organizations.Highlights:Doug's early career (3:00)Working for the NHL (4:40)Founding SMA (7:53)SMA's services (9:31)Negotiating rights deals (13:55)Cord-cutting (17:16)Impact of sports betting (18:35)Women's sports (19:37)AI in sports (20:58)Advice for young people trying to work in sports (26:12)Links:Doug Perlman LinkedInSMA LinkedInSMA WebsiteICR LinkedInICR TwitterICR WebsiteFeedback:If you have questions about the show, or have a topic in mind you'd like discussed in future episodes, email our producer, joe@lowerstreet.co.
