The Engineering our Future Empowering Engineers to Become Leaders Podcast
In this episode of the Engineering Our Future podcast, Nicolai and I deliver a genuine, practical conversation about building real financial security through emergency funds and sinking funds. We draw from personal experience, sharing how our mindsets about money evolved and the crucial role that tailored, “bare bones” emergency funds play in handling life's curveballs—like sudden car breakdowns or medical bills. Our stories underscore that financial mistakes happen to everyone but can be great teachers, reinforcing the benefits of incremental progress and making informed, individualized choices based on one's comfort zone and risk tolerance.[15]“Financial peace isn't about having the perfect system—it's about building habits that give you confidence to handle both emergencies and expected expenses without fear or debt.”A central theme of our discussion is the distinction between emergency funds, meant for unexpected crises, and sinking funds, designed for predictable but irregular expenses such as holidays, birthdays, and home repairs. We provide actionable tips on setting up high-yield savings accounts, tracking various fund categories, and managing the psychological hurdle of using savings when needed. By emphasizing adaptable systems like customizable sinking funds and a strategic use of HSAs, this episode empowers listeners to start small, build habits, and gradually cultivate lasting peace of mind around money—the goal being to respond to both the expected and the unpredictable without fear or debt.Lessons and Takeaways* Build a tailored emergency fund - Calculate your personal “bare bones” monthly expenses and save 3-6 months' worth in a high-yield savings account to handle unexpected crises without going into debt.* Create separate sinking funds - Set up dedicated savings categories for predictable irregular expenses like holidays, birthdays, car maintenance, and home repairs to avoid financial stress when these costs arise.* Start small and build gradually - Begin with manageable savings goals ($500-1000) for your emergency fund, then consistently add to it over time rather than feeling overwhelmed by trying to save everything at once.* Optimize your health savings - Consider using HSAs strategically not just for medical expenses but as potential long-term investment vehicles with unique tax advantages.* Develop systems that match your psychology - Create financial tracking methods that work with your personality and habits, making it easier to maintain good money management practices consistently.Links and References* Remit Sethi Podcast* Psychology of Money* Episode on Paying Debt Get full access to Engineering our Future at engineeringourfuture.substack.com/subscribe

The Engineering our Future Empowering Engineers to Become Leaders Podcast
Hey everyone,This week, I'm sharing my experience moving from a small firm to a big one—and what that's meant for my career and growth over the last year nine months. This year had a lot of ups and downs (this episode was recorded in June and I am just getting it out…). I am happy for Nicolai's support through this and I look forward to many more episodes coming out. What would you like to see more of?Personal takeaways:* Flexibility: Turns out, the big company isn't as slow-moving as I thought. Milestones and structure actually bring freedom to explore, innovate, and make mistakes.* Expanded toolbox: The more people you connect with—across disciplines—the better you get at your job. Every new conversation and collaboration adds a new tool.* Resources: There's more access to technical codes, sample projects, and experts, but also space to build my own reusable tools, like spreadsheets for designs.* Soft skills: Volunteering and joining internal networks (like Enlace for Hispanic engineers) have grown my network and boosted my confidence. These bigger companies have endless training resources.* Endless career pivots: You can chart new paths, propose new ideas, and switch directions—all without leaving the company.Action items for you:* If you're thinking of switching firm sizes or career tracks, connect with someone who's done it. Be curious, not cautious.* Start a conversation with colleagues outside your “bubble.” There's wisdom everywhere.* Volunteer, join an internal group, or attend a conference—don't wait for permission, but do learn the process for asking.* Reflect on whether your workflows and resources are making you more effective—and start building (or sharing) something reusable.As always, keep an open mind. If your current job isn't sparking joy, experiment with new options before making a leap. We're here to help you navigate challenges!If you've got questions, feedback, or just want to chat, reply to this email or visit luisfelipeduque.com/contact.Thanks for tuning in.

For organizations that are tempted to throw out the classic organizational management handbook in favor of a structure with no managers – think again. Nicolai J. Foss is a professor of strategy at Copenhagen Business School and the co-author of Why Managers Matter: The Perils of the Bossless Company. The book pushes back on the notion that the key to breakthrough success for organizations is through flat, leaderless structures akin to today's trendy startups, and makes the case for why companies need hierarchies to function. Nicolai and Greg discuss the feasibility and realities of operating without traditional hierarchies, why these models often rely heavily on exceptional founders and are not suited for all business types, and the essential roles managers play in coordination, cooperation, and maintaining effective workflows, especially during times of crisis. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:We still need managers41:33 [Managers] They're doing a lot of good stuff. They are coordinating, and they are cooperating at the most abstract level. I mean, activities need to be coordinated in the sense of, we have to figure out what those activities should be, how they should change in response to outside disturbances. Activities have to be linked. Activities have to be rethought. And once we have figured all that out, which is, of course, an ongoing struggle, then people have to be motivated to cooperate inside those, and actually carry out those activities in the best possible way and in a dynamic reality. This is a never-ending quest.No human system run itself11:44: No human system works itself or runs itself. It has to be supported, maintained. There has to be support, scaffolding, or whatever you want to call it. Same goes for firms—and perhaps all different ones.Organization is about coordinated cooperation02:40: At the end of the day, organization is about coordinated cooperation, and the right question to ask is, what exactly is the role of managers in bringing about coordinated cooperation?Boselessness is not for every company20:43: [Bosslessness] It works for some companies, typically those that have a more modular kind of underlying technology, where there is no high need for mutual adaptation between units or activities or processes. But it works much less well for a traditional industrial company.Show Links:Recommended Resources:Organizational theoryPrincipal–agent problemFirst, Let's Fire All the Managers by Gary HamelJensen HuangElon Musk by Walter IsaacsonCan you run a company as a perfect free market?

Rogerio Nicolai, diretor de negócios do Pinterest no Brasil, conta neste CMO Playbook como a plataforma se consolidou como uma pioneira em busca visual e inteligência artificial (IA), utilizando sua base de dados para atuar como uma "máquina de prever o futuro" através de tendências de consumo. Em conversa com Rapha Avellar, ele descreve que o uso é impulsionado por uma psicologia única, focada no planejamento pessoal e na intenção de realizar aspirações futuras. Diferentemente de outras redes, o Pinterest é a plataforma "do self", e não da selfie. Os usuários entram com propósito para planejar algo para si mesmos — seja uma casa nova, um look, uma viagem ou uma receita — estabelecendo uma relação íntima e individual, onde o foco não está na interação social ou na vida perfeita dos outros.Para marcas e anunciantes, essa mentalidade se traduz em oportunidades diretas de consumo, visto que cerca de 96% das buscas na plataforma estão relacionadas a intenções e desejos de compra. As categorias mais fortes no Brasil incluem moda, beleza, gastronomia, viagens e decoração. O Pinterest atua como uma solução para esses interesses, integrando o conteúdo da marca na jornada do usuário sem interrompê-lo.

Japan's Top Business Interviews Podcast By Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
Flowers are a stage — design is the performance. Affordable mistakes beat catastrophic caution. Build leaders from the bench you already have. A shop window can be a growth engine. Hands-on founders create hands-on cultures. Danish-born floral designer Nicolai Bergmann built his brand in Tokyo by treating the shopfront as a “stage,” inspiring customers with ready-made designs. After moving to Japan in the late '90s, a high-visibility boutique and department-store partnership launched the “Nicolai Bergmann” name, later expanded with a Minami-Aoyama flagship featuring a café, gallery, and atelier. He popularized the signature fresh flower box, grew the team to ~250 by developing leaders from the floor and adding specialists, and runs on a philosophy of bold but “affordable” experiments—learning fast without risking the whole platform. What makes leadership in Japan unique? Japan's leadership landscape values craftsmanship, visible commitment, and community. A founder who works the market at dawn and serves customers on the shop floor embodies credibility. Beyond hierarchy, leaders earn trust through nemawashi—quiet alignment-building before decisions—and by signalling stability through continuity of people and place. Shopfronts, department-store counters and hotel lobbies are not just sales channels; they are social proof engines where consistency, aesthetics and service fuse into leadership currency. Why do global executives struggle? Executives arriving with playbooks optimised for speed and centralisation can stall amid Japan's consensus rhythms. Ringi-sho processes and stakeholder mapping feel slow until leaders learn to use the process to clarify value and de-risk execution. Underinvesting in the “stage”—the customer-visible experience—and overinvesting in back-office abstraction also hurts; in Japan, persuasion is tactile. People want to see, touch and feel the idea before they sign off. Is Japan truly risk-averse? It's more accurate to say Japan practices uncertainty avoidance. Bergmann's career shows that bold moves are welcome when the downside is capped: trial pop-ups before full leases, host-funded fit-outs, and prototypes that can be iterated. The mantra is “affordable mistakes”—push hard, but don't blow up the platform. Decision intelligence here means structuring experiments so they teach fast without triggering existential losses. What leadership style actually works? Hands-on, craft-credible and steadily developmental. Leaders who model standards on the floor, grow managers from within, and supplement with targeted specialists (e.g., seasoned CFOs) see durable results. Clear stages—flagship, gallery, high-traffic counters—act as internal academies where juniors learn by doing. Consistency of presence from the top creates momentum that SOPs alone cannot. How can technology help? Digital twins of store layouts and merchandising flows help prototype seasonal displays before fit-out; simple decision dashboards clarify which experiments are “affordable.” Lightweight collaboration tools support nemawashi across shops, while CRM nudges seasonal outreach. None of this replaces the stage; it amplifies it—turning tacit craft into shareable playbooks without diluting design. Does language proficiency matter? Yes, but craft fluency and cultural curiosity travel far. Bergmann advanced by showing value on the counter and at installs while improving Japanese over time. A leader who demonstrates respect, learns the tempo, and leverages bilingual lieutenants can navigate ringi, win consensus, and keep teams inspired—even before perfect fluency lands. What's the ultimate leadership lesson? Treat every customer-facing surface as a stage; build leaders from the people who already care; and structure your boldness so you never risk the platform. Hands-on credibility + consensus craftsmanship = compounding trust.

On January 31, 2004, exactly three years after her divorce from David Larsen, 30-year-old Teri Jendusa-Nicolai arrived at her ex-husband's Wind Lake, Wisconsin home to pick up their daughters. Minutes later, he ambushed her with a baseball bat, bound her with duct tape, and sealed her in a garbage can filled with snow before abandoning her in a storage unit across the state line in Illinois. For 26 agonizing hours, Teri clung to life in subzero cold while police raced against time to find her.

Welcome back to The Golfing Mind. I'm your host, and with me today are Bobby Ross and Mike Kershaw. As we approach the 2025 Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black, we've got a lot to unpack: captains, strategies, pairings, and – of course – our prediction. On the U.S. side, Keegan Bradley leads the charge. He's confirmed he will not serve as a playing captain, choosing instead to concentrate fully on leadership. He's also close to solidifying his pairings, signalling that much of his game plan is already mapped out. Europe, meanwhile, is captained again by Luke Donald, returning for back‐to‐back Ryder Cups after the 2023 win. His team is almost identical to the one in Rome, with only one change: Rasmus Højgaard replacing his twin Nicolai. Donald's picks are designed for cohesion and experience, with several pairings we expect to stay together through critical sessions. As for pairings, Europe looks likely to lean on combinations like Rahm-Hatton, McIlroy-Fleetwood, Åberg-Hovland, and Lowry-Straka in the foursomes and fourballs. Golfmagic The U.S. pairing sheet is more uncertain, but expect strong-performing veterans to be matched with rising stars – perhaps Thomas with Morikawa, or Scheffler with Burns.

Denmark may be a small country, but it produces world-class athletes in cycling, tennis, handball, badminton, and golf. How do they do it? And how does the tax-financed effort to create athletic champions fit with the culture code of "Jante Law", the idea is that no one should think themselves better than anyone else? September is when fall sports season starts in Denmark. The badminton league begins, so does volleyball and basketball and hockey. Most importantly, the handball season kicks off, and while I'm not a handball fan myself, I always know when that season is underway because my otherwise mild-mannered downstairs neighbor begins screaming at his flatscreen, cheering on or scolding Denmark's handball girls or handball boys, the teams are equally popular in Denmark. Team handball was invented in Denmark – and like design, it's a national passion. Danish teams have won several World Championships and many Olympic Gold Medals. Football, otherwise known as soccer, is popular too, although given the international competition, it's a bit harder for little Denmark to win championships. The Danish national team did win a European championship in 1992, something any Danish man over 40 will be happy to discuss with you in great detail. Right now there are more than 300,000 registered football players in Denmark if you count amateur, pro, and semi-pro teams. The population of Denmark is 6 million. That means one out of every 20 Danes is on a football team. Danish athletes are not particularly rich, and the ones who do make big money have tapped into markets outside of Denmark. The most famous is badminton player Viktor Axelsen. Since badminton is most popular in Asia, Viktor Axelsen learned fluent Mandarin Chinese. There are lots of endorsements in the Chinese market. The golfing Højgaard twins, Rasmus and Nicolai, make their money on the international golf circuits, in particular the PGA. Both of them also have endorsement deals. And Tour de France winner Jonas Vingegaard makes his money not just in France, but also via international endorsements. Many Danes do sports in their spare time. A bike ride through Copenhagen wouldn't be complete without a middle-aged Lycra lout cyclist who thinks he's Jonas Vingegaard speeding past you in the bike lanes, sometimes screaming “Bagfra!” or “I'm coming up behind you!” Besides criminals and welfare cheats, these are the least liked men in Denmark. And many Danes are involved with what's often described as hygge sports, where the win or the loss isn't as important as the beers with your buddies or pasta with your girls afterwards. These leagues cover the entire lifespan – old boys football clubs or old girls rowing teams can keep you fit long past retirement age – and they often start in childhood. Schools in Denmark have physical education classes – under the old Viking word idraet – but they rarely have school sports teams. Sports are played through clubs, mostly amateur clubs, which is nice for the kids, because if they don't have many friends at school they can make different friends at their sports club. These clubs are part of a huge network connected to Team Denmark, which is a government project to create Denmark's future sports stars. It's always funny to me that there is so much support for elite sport development in a country so keen on Jante Law. Under the Jante Law, the idea is that no one should think themselves better than anyone else. You see this in Danish working culture, and you also see it in the educational system. Smart kids in Denmark don't get a boost – they're expected to just attend ordinary classes and help their slower classmates. There are very few gifted and talented programs, and unlike Germany or the UK, Denmark doesn't academically track children when they're 10 or 11, sending some to more challenging academic programs. In Denmark, you can get away with messing around and doing very little in school until your second year of high school – gymnasium – around age 17 or 18, and then buckle down and end up finding yourself in med school or international business, two of the most sought-after university programs. But, in sport, Denmark begins looking for talent very early. The local sports clubs work with Team Denmark to create a pipeline of talented kids. Team Denmark, which is part of the culture ministry, has been around for forty years, but it constantly updates which sports it supports. Being practical Danes, they aim for sports in which little Denmark has a good chance of big success. Right now, that's badminton, handball, cycling, plus the various sports played on or in the water – sailing, kayaking, swimming, rowing. Denmark has a long tradition of sports that involve boats or water. With all its little islands and fjords, it has more coastline than India. By age 13, these kids are offered places in talent centers or elite sports schools, and when they're 15 and ready for secondary schools, there will be an elite sport track that gives them flexibility to train and compete. Danish universities offer flexibility for the athletes of Team Denmark when it comes to papers and exams. Some companies even offer part-time internships for Denmark's elite athletes, so they can keep their civilian career on track while pursuing their sport. Of course, once they've succeeded at that sport, Jante Law kicks in again. Danish athletes who win things are expected to give credit to their teammates, to their trainers, to the collective effort. To say things like, well, “I was third, I got the bronze, but I could have easily been fourth.” They're also expected to stay in Denmark and pay Danish taxes. Viktor Axelsen found himself rather unpopular when he moved to Dubai. His excuse was the better flight connections to badminton matches Asia, as well as the dry weather being good for his asthma, but everyone knew the difference between 56% income tax on top earners in Denmark and 0% in Dubai probably weighed in his decision. The ideal Danish elite athlete is probably Michael Laudrup, who played football at the highest levels throughout Europe in the 1990s, but was always very humble about his skills. After he retired he came back to Denmark, where he now runs a wine business, does some Danish TV commentary, and no doubt pays substantial Danish taxes. This is sporting success in one of the most egalitarian countries in the world. And that's the How to Live in Denmark podcast for this week.

With European captain Luke Donald making his 6 captain's picks today, the teams are set for the Ryder Cup later this month in New York at Bethpage Black. The European team is essentially the same as the last Ryder Cup in Italy, with the only exception being that Rasmus Hojgaard is on this years team instead of his twin brother Nicolai. The United States team has been set for about a week now, with the big talker being captain Keegan Bradley opting to not pick himself to play. The United States team will look to keep the run of home teams winning the Ryder Cup. The podcast guys played a round at the historic Keller Golf Course in the Twin Cities and had a round for the ages. Keller Golf Course has hosted two PGA Championships and also was the host venue for the St. Paul Open, which was played for many decades on the PGA Tour. The group had 20 birdies, including a couple improbable ones from Timothy after hitting into a nature area, Jeff making 8 birdies and still shooting even par and Mike with a bogey-free 65. We will talk all about it and discuss where our games are at as summer winds to a close. Subscribe to the Break80 Podcast on Apple, Spotify and YouTube for weekly golf content.

Will Doctor gives you the sharpest card for the Omega European Masters -Discussing top 9 on odds board -1 matchup -2 t10's -2 outrights (16/1 & 18/1) -Sleeper, Best Bet The Golf Preview Podcast on Pregame's Network (0:12 – 0:29) set the stage for this week's deep dive into PGA Tour and DP World Tour betting picks. Host Will Doctor brought sharp insights, beginning with the headline story of Tommy Fleetwood's first PGA Tour win at Eastlake, a monumental 2025 moment for golf betting fans. From Memphis to the BMW, Fleetwood's heartbreaks turned into motivation, showing resilience and class (0:39 – 9:23). Doctor highlighted upcoming DP World Tour action, including the Omega European Masters at Crans-sur-Sierre, where Matt Wallace defends in the Swiss Alps. With Matthew Fitzpatrick at 9-1, Alex Noren at 14-1, and Aaron Rai at 16-1, the field is stacked. He also previewed the Irish Open, the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth, and the high-stakes Korn Ferry Tour Finals with thirty PGA Tour cards on the line, key storylines shaping fall golf betting. Alex Noren (9:23 – 9:49) celebrated his first victory in seven years, returning from injury with elite iron play and renewed confidence. Will Doctor noted profitable tickets cashed on Fitzpatrick and Smylie, while Rasmus Højgaard locked in his Ryder Cup spot despite missed chances (9:49 – 11:04). Fleetwood's breakthrough was the season's most-watched non-major, with over 4.4 million viewers, a massive data point for PGA Tour betting relevance. Fleetwood's own reflection (11:05 – 11:30) captured the moment: one win as the foundation for many. Yet betting cards saw setbacks with Scottie Scheffler, Viktor Hovland, and Ludvig Åberg falling short (11:31 – 39:00). Only Sam Burns delivered, finishing top ten and strengthening his Ryder Cup candidacy. Doctor analyzed Ryder Cup projections, calling for Scheffler, Schauffele, Henley, English, DeChambeau, Justin Thomas, Cameron Young, Ben Griffin, and Sam Burns to form Team USA, while Cantlay's runner-up finish secured his place. Team Europe, led by Luke Donald, is anchored by Rory McIlroy, Fleetwood, Rose, Hatton, and Højgaard, with Lowry, Straka, Åberg, Hovland, Fitzpatrick, and Rahm likely filling out the roster. The Omega European Masters odds board was then dissected in detail. Fitzpatrick's strong form made him one to watch but not a pre-tournament bet at 9-1. Noren at 14-1 presented elite value, while Aaron Rai's struggles with the putter kept him off Doctor's card. The spotlight shifted to the Højgaard twins, with Nicolai at 16-1 and Rasmus at 18-1, both primed to contend at altitude. Marco Penge's explosive driving but inconsistent putting made him a risky choice. Wyndham Clark at 25-1 drew intrigue, though erratic driving raised concerns. In betting matchups, Oliver Lindell over Yuki Ichikawa emerged as a sharp play. Doctor's official card closed with Noren to top ten at +125, Rasmus Højgaard to top ten at +187, Nicolai Højgaard outright at 16-1, Rasmus outright at 18-1, Sami Välimäki as a sleeper to top ten at +350, and Nicolai Højgaard to top ten as the best bet at +162. These Omega European Masters picks provide actionable golf betting insights backed by recent form, strokes gained data, and Ryder Cup momentum. The Golf Preview Podcast (ending timestamp) delivered a comprehensive breakdown of PGA Tour betting, DP World Tour odds, Ryder Cup team construction, and European Masters predictions. For golf fans and bettors alike, the combination of statistical insight, player performance analysis, and betting recommendations made this preview essential. Pregame's coverage positioned the Omega European Masters as a premier betting opportunity in late summer golf, where smart wagering strategies could turn form analysis into profitable outcomes.

We had another wad on the pod this week, Nicolai Uznik is a rare breed of climber who has somehow managed to climb the highest grades outdoors whilst also achieving some great results in the comps. We talk about that juggling act, what it's like to be a competitor in the current era of competitions, competition setting, Maltatal, and his experience with a candidate for the best looking 9As, Mount Doom. Surely Mount Doom would have scored very highly on our critically acclaimed (a couple of people said it was alright) 9A tier list if it hadn't been climbed minutes after we recorded it.

Interpreten: Piotr Beczała, Wiener Sängerknaben, Wiener Philharmoniker, Tugan SokhievLabel: Sony ClassicalEAN: 198029354027Wenn sich der Schlosspark Schönbrunn in ein klingendes Freilufttheater verwandelt, dann ist Sommernachtskonzert-Zeit. Am 13. Juni war es wieder so weit. Bei bestem Sommerwetter sind wieder zig-Tausende in den Schlosspark gekommen, um den Wiener Philharmonikern und ihren Gästen zu lauschen. Wer nicht dabei war, hat bereits jetzt die Möglichkeit, das Versäumte auf CD nachzuhören, so wie Michael Gmasz.Eröffnet wurde das Konzert mit Johann Sebastian Bachs „Air“, einem stillen, fast schwebenden Gedenken an die Opfer des wenige Tage vor dem Konzert stattgefundenen Amoklaufs von Graz. Eine Schweigeminute folgte – ein Moment der Stille, der auf der CD spürbar nachhallt. Danach aber entfaltete sich ein musikalischer Bogen, der von der Melancholie zur Lebensfreude führte – ganz im Sinne der heilenden Kraft der Musik. Erstmals am Pult des Sommernachtskonzerts: der russische Dirigent Tugan Sokhiev. Er führt die Wiener Philharmoniker mit einer Mischung aus Eleganz und Energie durch ein Programm, das sich ganz den Opern- und Operettenmelodien Europas verschrieben hat. Eine abwechslungsreiche Tour de Force mit Bizet, Offenbach, Tschaikowsky, Grieg und Nicolai, dessen Ouvertüre zu Die lustigen Weiber von Windsor dem 25-jährigen Jubiläum des Hauses der Musik gewidmet war. Sokhievs Lesart ist dabei nie plakativ, sondern stets durchdacht – etwa beim „Danse Bacchanale“ von Saint-Saëns, der unter seiner Leitung nicht nur exotisch, sondern auch strukturell klar wirkt. Mit Piotr Beczała ist neben Sokhiev ein weiterer Debütant des Sommernachtskonzertes auf der Bühne gestanden. Mit seinem Paraderepertoire, wie der „Blumenarie“ aus Bizets Carmen oder Operettenklassikern von Kálmán und Lehár. Sein „Nessun dorma“ aus Puccinis Turandot hat sicher bei vielen der Anwesenden für Gänsehaut gesorgt und tut das auch im Nachhinein auf CD. Auch die Wiener Sängerknaben sollen nicht unerwähnt bleiben, waren auch sie heuer erstmals dabei. Klanglich opulent, rhythmisch präzise und mit jener unverwechselbaren Wiener Eleganz. Man hört, dass die Wiener Philharmoniker ihren Ausflug nach Schönbrunn bei bestem Sommerwetter sehr genossen haben. (mg)
Bottle films, films made predominately in one location, are like playing with fire. There's not a lot of room to make a good film if you don't cast well, for instance, or if the location of your bottle isn't fantastic. My guest, director Nicolai Schumann, understood all this….because he watched a bunch of the previous bottle films…and went ahead with THE LONELY MUSKETEER (2024) anyway. And I'm so glad that he did. The film tells the story of “the psychological downfall of a man who is highly traumatized by life.” Along the way, it's earned numerous awards, including cinematography at the 2025 Raindance Film Festival. And Nico is here to talk about it with me today. In this episode, Nico and I discuss:The clausterphobic nature of his film and what people should expect to see when they watch THE LONELY MUSKETEER?The pairing of investment bankers and hooligans in London that made this film;The secret to success for the feature film that won best cinematography at Raindance 2025;Why they cast Edward Hogg for a film that centers around a man locked in a box;How he feels about bottle films;Utilizing color throughout the film as well as putting important scenes in the credits;Whether he can trace awards won to tangible benefits for the film;London as an indie filmmaking location;What he's working on now” — “three teenagers who decide on a suicide pact in the backdrop of Thatcherism”;Nico's Indie Film Highlight: JAMES (2024) dir. by Max TrainMemorable Quotes:“The next decision I made, stylistically or creatively, is that there is not a single camera movement in the whole movie. So our big role model for that was a shower scene in PSYCHO;“ If there's not a hundred percent certainty that the actor can put it off, we wouldn't have done it.”“ The other thing which was really important for us is that we got the visuals right…that we started with wide lenses and then we went to long lenses over the movie so that the walls were literally closing in on the actor.” “The credit sequence is there to keep the audience guessing.”Links:Follow Nicolai On InstagramSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/first-time-go/exclusive-content

In this episode of the Engineering our Future Podcast, Nicolai and I pull back the curtain on something they don't teach you in engineering school - just how wildly diverse your career path can become! Remember when we all thought we'd spend our lives buried in calculations? That narrow view quickly changes once you're in the field. We explore everything from the technical specialist route to project management, sales, operations, and even unexpected paths like what I'm doing now - podcasting and entrepreneurship.Nicolai shares some fascinating stories about engineers who made complete career 180s (including one that had me thinking "why didn't I try that?"), proving that it's never too late to pivot if something sparks your interest. We dig into which skills actually open doors - both technical foundations and those crucial "soft skills" that engineering programs barely mention. If you've ever felt stuck in your career or wondered what other options exist beyond your current role, this conversation might just be the permission slip you need to explore new territory.

Lal Bikes' Supre Drive offers some compelling upsides over a conventional derailleur drivetrain, but it also needs a frame built around the system. Lal began by partnering with Nicolai on the Nucleon 16, but now they are ready to launch their first bike under the Lal Bikes brand. So we sat down with Cedric Eveleigh, the founder of Lal and inventor of the Supre Drive, to hear all about the new Katana, get the story of its design and development, chat about material selection and ride feel, and a whole lot more.RELATED LINKS:BLISTER+ Get Yourself CoveredLal KatanaCedric Eveleigh of LAL Bikes on Reinventing the Derailleur (Ep.94)Lal Bikes on Making the Supre Drive a Reality (Ep.179)TOPICS & TIMES:The Supre Drive (2:32)Nicolai Nucleon 16 (3:57)The Katana's development (8:56)Initial concepts for the Katana (18:11)Ride feel of steel frames (19:00)Performance goals for the Katana (24:48)Handling & geometry (26:54)Suspension kinematics (31:23)The Supre Drive and parts compatibility (38:37)Pricing & availability (55:05)Final details (58:33)CHECK OUT OUR OTHER PODCASTS:Blister CinematicCRAFTEDGEAR:30Blister PodcastOff The Couch Hosted on Acast.
