Podcasts about old dawg

Recorded live inside the Lean Construction Institute's Live Podcast Booth at LCI Congress 2025, the Old Dawgs got together for an unfiltered, field‑first discussion. This fast‑moving conversation captures what decades of hard‑won (700+ years) experience have taught these seasoned Lean builders about the superiority of modern Lean construction methods over traditional methods. Led by podcast host Adam Hoots, this is one "Hoots on the Ground" episode you DO NOT want to miss! (And if you usually go audio-only for our podcasts, this one is one to WATCH – 12 Old Dawgs crammed into a podcast studio – you can see and feel the passion!) From the origins of Lean Construction to the latest experiments in production planning, the Old Dawgs trade war stories, share missteps, and reveal the practical moves that create flow, reliability, and above all respect for environments and people. You'll hear how they've adapted The Last Planner System® practices for tough schedules, why Takt thinking clarifies handoffs, and how real trust is built when leaders keep promises and elevate the voices of craft professionals. What the Old Dawgs get into during this podcast: The shift from "tools talk" to a people‑first culture that enables tools to work. How trust, psychological safety, and clear promises drive schedule reliability. Evolving Last Planner System behaviors (constraints removal, PPC as coaching, daily huddles that add value). Using Takt planning to simplify sequencing, stabilize labor, and reduce chaos at handoffs. Preconstruction to production: designing for flow, defining capacity, and right‑sizing batch sizes. Leadership on the deck: what foremen and supers need from project leaders to protect the crew's time. Respect for People in action: craft voice in planning, mental health, and creating environments where capability grows. Rapid‑fire reflections: the one behavior each Dawg would start tomorrow to improve team performance. Key takeaways include: Reliability is a relationship. When leaders make and keep clear promises, crews reciprocate—and schedules stabilize. Small, stable cadences beat heroics. Short planning horizons, visible commitments, and simple feedback loops win. Design for flow early. Define constraints and capacity in precon so production plans are realistic, not aspirational. Psych safety isn't "soft." It's the precondition for surfacing constraints, learning from misses, and improving PPC. Respect for people is the strategy. Elevating craft expertise and well‑being accelerates learning and performance. It's a lively, candid celebration of the Old Dawg community that continues to push the industry forward—reminding us that Lean is less about perfection and more about continuous learning, with dignity for the people doing the work.

Going through NFL news, ADP and other random BS with Paul Birkholz........Like a lot of random BS!!!

Dr. Mike Brasher recently joined the crew from Campus Waterfowl for an opportunity to reconnect with his roots, as he shared a soggy morning in the cypress swamp with current and former students of his alma mater, Mississippi State University. This episode, which originally aired on Campus Waterfowl, recaps an exciting ring-neck hunt and shines a spotlight on the passion this group has for waterfowl and wetland conservation through their work on the Mississippi State chapter of Ducks Unlimited. Joining on the podcast were Derek Christians of Campus Waterfowl and Drew Brown and Hunter Yelverton from Mississippi State. The group also discussed duckDNA, the exciting project that is connecting duck hunters with scientists to inform some of today's most ground-breaking research. www.ducks.org/DUPodcastwww.campuswaterfowl.com

In this inspiring episode, we tackle the pervasive issue of self-doubt and explore effective strategies to overcome it. Hoots opens up about his personal journey, sharing how his network has played a pivotal role in validating their path and fostering self-belief. Recognizing the power of surrounding oneself with the right people, Hoots emphasizes the importance of finding a supportive network that challenges self-doubt and encourages personal growth. Listeners are encouraged to reflect on their own strengths and create a list to bolster confidence, while also setting realistic goals that are within reach. Drawing on a powerful metaphor, Hoots presents the contrast between the buffalo and the cow when facing a storm. The buffalo charges directly into the storm, experiencing it head-on, while the cow instinctively runs away. By adopting the buffalo mentality and confronting self-doubt courageously, we can navigate through challenges more swiftly and emerge stronger on the other side. The episode urges listeners to seek help, highlighting the acceptance of therapy and counseling within the construction industry. With a call to action, the host emphasizes the need to build a community that supports one another and shares insights, paving the way for innovation and progress. The episode concludes with an invitation to join the Old Dawg Lean community, which offers a wealth of resources and knowledge to transform the construction industry. Hoots encourages listeners to grab a copy of the book, The Old Dawg Lean Thesaurus: Making Lean Simple!, to gain a deeper understanding of Lean Builder principles and become active participants in the community. As the episode wraps up, there is an optimistic outlook for future episodes, as well as a shared determination to drive change and innovation within the industry. Tune in to gain empowering insights and practical strategies to conquer self-doubt and unlock your full potential.   ABOUT HOOTS ON THE GROUND PODCAST: The Lean Builder's absolutely, positively NO Bullshido podcast. Join Host Adam Hoots and his guests as they dig deep into the topics that are relevant to those of us who “get it”: the men and women with the dirty boots, the ones who work in the field, doing the hands-on business of construction each day.

Good morning! This morning I go through a CryptoSlate article that coevrs the current issue of Bancor freezing their impermanent loss protection service. This service, along with their tempting rewards are why many people jumped participating into Bancor's DEX LP's in the first place. Two of these participants are most likeley Celsius and 3AC who are going through a death spiral themselves. Their death spiral is possibly causing havoc on Bancor's liquidity along with an anonymous large shorter of the BNT token. Bancor is shutting off deposits and pausing impermanent loss protection while they strategize how to best resolve the situation. Is this all a shell game or an honest and ethical pause? You decide for yourself!

Bill is a real estate investor, entrepreneur, and host of the Old Dawg's REI Network Podcast, a podcast for people 50 years and older who see real estate investing as a means to fund their retirement years and create a legacy for their family. Prior to forming the Old Dawg's REI Network, Bill and his family were missionaries to orphaned, abandoned, and at-risk children living on the streets of Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Before that, he was a professional musician and spent over 25 years in business, on both the corporate and entrepreneur side. A few highlights of his career include meeting Ronald Reagan, working with actor Jimmy Stewart, being interviewed by Oprah, and having CNN produce a documentary on his work in Haiti entitled “Rescued.” Bill's story is absolutely fascinating and we dive in by discussing his 25 years of business background, which included working in sales and marketing in the automotive and airline industries in Southern California, launching the Nissan infinity division, and then moving on to the technology sector right as the internet took off. At that time, he even bumped into Mark Cuban who was streaming a variety of games via mics in front of radios. Shortly after the bubble burst and Bill felt called to get into ministry. He always enjoyed traveling but usually, that was for work and meant being away from his family – so what better way to take the family on the road with you – as a family rock band! They partnered with Christian organizations and toured together. During this time, they sponsored a child from Haiti and his daughter became obsessed with learning about the country. Little did they know that soon enough they would be visiting Haiti to perform. The trip had a profound impact not just on Bill's daughter, but the whole family, and Haiti eventually became their new home. They sold everything they owned in the US and returned to Haiti to take care of the kids. Initially, they of course had no idea what they were doing and where to start, but eventually, their efforts grew into an entire organization, Child Hope International, and they invested first in a boy's home, then a girl's home, and then a guest house, and even a school. After being struck by a devastating earthquake, Haiti was in the news across the globe which resulted in Oprah visiting and CNN producing a documentary entitled ‘Rescued' which was all about their efforts. Slowly Bill's children had grown up and started to return to the US to go to university and Bill's wife was diagnosed with cancer. So, jointly they made the decision to pass Child Hope International to the next generation and make plans to return to the US together. This left Bill wondering what to do next with his life. He knew he wanted to diversify his investments before retirement, but he wasn't sure how. After an extensive period of research and reading Rich Dad Poor Dad among other books, Bill had established that real estate investing was the route to go down. He did as much research as he could to develop his plan. He decided to focus on turn-key properties and settled on Atlanta and Memphis as the first areas to make a purchase. After a short trip to both locations, he returned with 3 properties to call his own. Like us all, Bill was learning as he was going along. Some properties were making more money than others and property management turned out to be challenging at times. At last, Bill got himself a mentor who recommended starting a podcast to share his experience of real estate investing for retirement – and after some initial resistance, he went for it. The podcast has over time provided Bill with a large amount of networking opportunities which has certainly helped to open more doors for him in the industry. Bill then shares that he did have the 1000 doors goal and he had reached a staggering 736 doors on the day of recording this episode – a real surprise seeing what a humble person Bill is. Bill shared further that the contacts he was gaining from networking allowed him to do larger projects, which is what got him closer to his 1000 door goal. We then move on to discuss property management. Bill outsources the property management entirely to others. He doesn't really have a choice in this matter since a lot of his properties are not exactly in his backyard. Over the years he realized that the biggest factor for him when recruiting property managers is transparency. Bill also briefly shares his experience with short-term rentals. He has three that are doing really well in this market. Bill was initially affected by COVID-related cancellations but then managed to recover very quickly through a few changes in his marketing language. We then discuss his current projects and what he feels particularly excited about. Bill shares how he has recently gotten into the senior living sector through a contact of his and what the construction of these new senior living facilities involves. These projects are having Bill engage in aspects of the business he has not previously considered, so this goes to show that there is always something new to experiment with.

If you think you are too old to start investing, that time keeps passing by and you are never going to achieve your financial retirement dreams, think again. You can start a real estate career whenever you want to, the only thing you need to have is real estate passion, and being able to learn, read books, and connect with other real estate colleagues that have something to say to you. Bill Manassero started his real estate career at 60 years old and in a little while, he got on top of the game. Today, he has a podcast for The Old Dawgs out there who are contemplating the idea of starting their own real estate portfolio for their retirement.  With over 20 years of corporate and entrepreneurial experience, Bill and his wife spent 12 years in a mission in Haiti taking care of orphan kids. Upon deciding to return home, he looked into what he would do and decided to venture into real estate investing to earn some money for his retirement, for his mission in Haiti, and for his family. Soon, he started developing his portfolio of properties and through trial and error, he has developed a plan to acquire 1000 units/doors by 2020.  In this episode, Manassero shares with us how an unexpected inheritance allowed him to get into the market, and his progression through different kinds of real estate properties and strategies, from wholesale and turn-key, to multifamily apartment buildings.

Bill had 5 kids at the time and decided to make a major life pivot, become a professional musician, and travel the world long term with his wife and kids. Homeschooling his kids and teaching them life lessons through travel, Bill shares what life was like for his family as itinerant nomads for over 3 years before moving to Haiti where they would be based for the next 12 years. Bill explains how he and his family founded “Child Hope International” which established medical clinics, orphanages, schools and entrepreneurial trainings for the people of Haiti, and ended up getting his family featured on a CNN special with Soledad O'Brien and interviewed by Oprah. He explains how incredibly challenging yet incredibly rewarding life was for his family in Haiti. Bill then talks about how he transitioned back to life in the U.S. and started investing in real estate in 2014 at age 58 and explains how he has acquired 88 units since then.
