The College Football Experience (@TCEonSGPN) on the Sports Gambling Podcast Network reacts to the news of the Stanford Cardinal and Andrew Luck firing Troy Taylor. Pick Dundee aka (@TheColbyD) makes sense of the firing and talks about the challenges with hiring a new head football coach heading into April and projects just where the Stanford Cardinal should turn. Will the upcoming second year in the ACC be challenging with the cross country trips and who they drew on the conference schedule this year? Could Andrew Luck turn to Andy Thompson as the interim head coach?Does the Stanford football legacy with Bill Walsh, Dick Vermeil, Pop Warner, Dennis Green, Jim Harbaugh etc. hold any weight on hiring a coach heading into the 2025 season? Will Andrew Luck try to reach out to David Shaw or Pep Hamilton? Could Jason Garrett be back in the mix with the Stanford Cardinal? Should Chris Peterson be the first person Andrew Luck contacts? Does it make sense to contact Ken Niumatalolo or Dave Clawson? Would it make sense for Lance Taylor or Dino Babers to be in the mix? Could Jim Mora leave UConn for the Stanford job? We talk it all and more on this episode of The College Football Experience.

In this episode, Bob discussed how originally substance misuse was not an area that he worked with, but after it kept showing up with his clients he decided he needed and pursued more training. He discussed how he was part of the Family Recovery Project at the Mental Research Institute with Drs. Stephanie Brown and Virginia Lewis, a study aimed at what happens in couple and family systems after beginning recovery. Bob's research, a qualitative study on long-term couple recovery, led to him creating a model called the “Couple Recovery Development Approach (CRDA), a theory for explaining how couples can successfully navigate the challenges found in the transition from active addiction to active recovery. Bob talked about the impact of the trauma of addiction, and the trauma of recovery relating that the first year in recovery was challenging, and that relapse rates are high in that first year. He explained how with couples he externalizes addiction and explores how it has invaded their relationship, in a way so that they can both talk about the impact of this unwanted intruder. He discussed how clinicians often believe it's important not to work on the couple relationship in the beginning of recovery, because each partner is supposed to focus on their individual recovery, but he pointed out that couples impacted by addiction have the highest divorce rate of any other comorbidities, and there actually isn't any empirical studies to support that approach; in fact research does support the concept that healthy relationships are found to be the biggest predictor of long-term sobriety. It turns out that couples work is one of the most effective ways to identify addiction and move people into recovery. Rather than the common belief that addiction is contraindicated for couples therapy, We addressed the issues of codependency. While it can be helpful in defining issues for the non-using partner, it's limited. Bob said he feels it is important to add the concept of secondhand harm, and post-traumatic-stress-disorder to normalize partner's experiences and not pathologize them with the singular term “codependency”. He described his intervention called H.E.A.R.T. (Healing Emotions from Addiction Recovery and Trauma), which helps partners to process the trauma from addiction, without blame or defensiveness. Robert Navarra, Psy.D, LMFT, MAC is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Gottman Therapist and Master Trainer, and holds National Certification as a Master Addiction Counselor. He has trained counselors and therapists nationally and internationally. Dr. Navarra has co-authored several book chapters with Drs. John and Julie Gottman, and co-authored articles on Gottman Therapy for The Encyclopedia of Couple and Family Therapy with Dr. John Gottman. Based on his research at Mental Research Institute in Palo Alto California, Bob created “Roadmap for the Journey: A Path for Couple Recovery”, a two-day workshop for couples in recovery from an addictive disorder. “Roadmap for the Journey” has been a featured workshop at Hazelden Betty Ford and has been given at treatment programs as well as in small, semi-private workshop settings. Bob and John Gottman are currently researching the impact of Roadmap for the Journey in helping couples integrate recovery into their relationship, a missing element in most treatment programs. In collaboration with the Gottman Institute, Bob has also created a one-day training workshop for counselors and therapists, called “Couples and Addiction Recovery.” He also teaches graduate classes on addictive disorders at Santa Clara University.

In this episode of Speaking Out of Place, we talk with Malcolm Harris, author of a new book entitled, Palo Alto: A History of California, Capitalism, and the World. Working our way back from the recent meltdown of the Silicon Valley Bank and the massive, toxic train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, to the founding of the city of Palo Alto by Leland Stanford as a haven from labor unrest in San Francisco and his first endeavor there, the world's largest stock farm, to the founding of the university that bears his son's name, we discover the ghostly presence of Capital.From there we move to an in-depth study of Herbert Hoover and the Hoover Institution, and the formation of Silicon Valley itself.Throughout, we find a common thread that links all. This thread is a continuous, if evolving, effort to sort out people into two groups--those that Nature has deemed superior, from those who are meant to serve. This is the “Palo Alto System.”Inspired in part by the rash of suicides at Harris's alma mater, Palo Alto High School, the author notes that the railroad tracks upon which these young people perished were laid by Leland Stanford, and that the Valley is haunted by the ghosts of people whose lives were destroyed by the “Palo Alto System.We end by discussing his audacious proposal—to give the land back to the Muwekma Ohlone, the first of the dispossessed peoples.Malcolm Harris is a freelance writer and the author of Kids These Days, Shit is Fucked Up and Bullshit, and Palo Alto.

Kazuki “Kaz” Ohta is the CEO at Treasure Data, a leading customer data platform and InfoWorld's 2022 Technology of the Year Award winner. Previously, he was the founding Chief Technology Officer (CTO) at the company. Prior to that, in 2009, Kaz co-founded the world's largest Hadoop User Group. In our conversation, Kaz explains: - The drive that took him from Japan to arrive as an unknown underdog in Silicon Valley. - Success principles for building a solid business. - The importance of a Customer Data Platform (CDP) when 70% of today's customer journey takes place online. - How in a demanding market, businesses must be more efficient and they can do that if they know their data. - The value of being a multi-company founder and how that has shaped his outlook on his business life. Kaz moved to America without even knowing how to speak English, where he overcame this obstacle and majored in computer science. During that time, his professor built the world's faster supercomputer (essentially 500K computers combined into one), and Kaz was part of the team that built the file system.

Many of the 500+ SFN Mentor Fathers, who are raising kids with special needs, have said: "I wish there was something like this when we first received our child's diagnosis. I felt so isolated. There was no one within my family, at work, at church or within my friend group who understood or could relate to what I was going through."SFN Mentor Fathers share their experiences with younger dads closer to the beginning of their journey raising a child with the same or similar special needs. The SFN Mentor Fathers do NOT offer legal or medical advice, that is what lawyers and doctors do. They simply share their experiences and how they have made the most of challenging situations.

How do we integrate the intense experiences of psychedelic therapy for long term benefits? Can we apply those learnings to existential exploration in general? In this episode we have the fascinating topic of ‘psychedelic integration' to get our head around. Integration is a crucial part of any psychotherapy process, but perhaps even more so when those suffering experience psychedelic compounds in their treatment program. Many subjects of the new psychedelic treatments for depression and ADHD, have life changing experiences that often go against everything they have come to believe about themselves and the world. So regardless of how positive that can be to the meaning of their lives, it's clear that some pretty sensitive guidance and processing needs to take place for the therapy to shift their day to day life long-term. And interestingly the same tools we'll discuss can be used for all of us to navigate our own existential exploration. So who better to help us explain this and offer some tools for navigating these tricky experiences than clinical psychologist and author Dr. Kile Ortigo. Kile is the founder of the Center for Existential Exploration in Palo Alto California; he's hugely influenced by psychologist Carl Jung and Jospeh Campbell and specialises in treating trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, and addiction, with a particular sensitivity to gender identity issues. He's just written a book about the topic Beyond the Narrow Life: A Guide for Psychedelic Integration and Existential Exploration What we discuss in this episode: 00:00 Intro 06:00 Integration in therapy 09:44 Integration of psychedelic experiences 12:13 Preparation for the unknown - Kile's new book ‘Psychedelic integration' 17:00 Re-finding initiation; analogy with preparation 21:00 The risks of self-initiation 23:25 Is meaning built into existence? 28:00 Joseph Campbell's Hero's Journey 31:30 The symbolism of the battles in the myths 34:00 The shadow - ‘a moral problem' Jung 35:00 Monomyth is a misnoma 38:00 The Heroine's journey - Maureen Murdoch 41:30 MDMA therapy for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder 43:45 Preparation - medicine journey - integration; 3 Arcs 46:00 The risk of re-trauma if the patient is not prepared 49:45 The rewards from existential exploration and integration 54:00 The exciting mystery of the unknown - making friends with the unknown References: Kile's new Book Beyond the Narrow Life: A Guide for Psychedelic Integration and Existential Exploration, 'The Shadow' according to Jung Collective Unconscious episode #6 Individuation according to C.G.Jung Jospeh Campbell's Hero's Journey episode

Stylist/Creative director: Rebekka Fellah Photographer: Enrique Leyva © Hugo McCloud Courtesy: Sean Kelly, New York Born in Palo Alto California in 1980, Hugo McCloud is one of the most prolific young artists working today. In a career that has now spanned fifteen years, Hugo McCloud's work has quickly evolved through a process of restless experimentation, bringing inventiveness and fearlessness to the act of making. The artist is engaged in an ongoing quest to elevate and master diverse methodologies and the array of subjects his work addresses. An abiding, unifying theme is Hugo's preoccupation with finding beauty in the everyday. Self-taught with a background in industrial design, McCloud's practice is unrestricted by classical, academic tenets. He has gravitated toward materials that could be considered abject – roofing materials, solder, and presently, single-use plastic bags. Drawing inspiration from the rawness of the urban landscape, McCloud creates rich, large-scale abstract paintings and by fusing unconventional industrial materials with traditional pigment and woodblock printing techniques. McCloud's newest body of figural work touches on notions of class, particularly through his use of plastic bags. His investigation into plastic began approximately five years ago after traveling to India and seeing multi-color polypropylene plastic sacks everywhere. Observing the downcycle of these bags from their creation, to the companies that purchased them for the distribution of products, to the trash pickers in Dharavi slums, McCloud saw how this ubiquitous material passed through the hands of individuals at every level of society. These representational works address issues concerning the economics of labor, geopolitics and the environmental impact of plastic. McCloud continues his practice of incorporating industrial materials using plastic as a tool to better understand our similarities and differences as a human race; to connect to our environment; and to contribute to reversing the negative impact of our carbon footprint. McCloud has been the subject of solo exhibitions at The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum in Ridgefield, Connecticut, The Arts Club, London and Fondazione 107, in Turin, Italy. He has also been featured in group exhibitions at the Studio Museum in Harlem, New York, and The Drawing Center, New York. His work is in the collections of the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, D.C., the North Carolina Museum of Art, the Detroit Institute of the Arts, The Margulies Collection at the Warehouse, the Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University, the Brooklyn Museum, the Mott Warsh Collection, and The Joyner/Giuffrida Collection. Hugo McCloud lives and works in Brooklyn, New York and Tulum, Mexico.

Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! Programa nº 7. Charlando con Ted Simon, viajando barato y Conexión con Cabo Norte Uno de los sueños acariciados por el responsable de este podcast era conocer a Ted Simon, en autor de, entre otros “Los Viajes de Júpiter”. Y se ha cumplido con creces. Cenamos con Ted, paseamos con él por Valladolid y escuchamos embelesados su voz aterciopelada y sabia. Inútil resulta escribir más sobre Los Viajes de Júpiter o sobre el mismo Ted porque otros han glosado, con más maestría que yo, su vida y obra. Así que, lo mejor, será escucharlo y disfrutar de lo que nos cuenta el más grande entre los grandes. Como la cosa va de viajes y la economía se constriñe cada vez más hablaremos de los viajes Low Cost, pero de los baratos de verdad. De salir de casa con la tienda de campaña y el saco, de cargar con el infernillo y el sopicaldo, de dormir en una viaja cuadra, debajo de un puente o en la tranquilidad de una pradera entre abetos. De esos viajes que convierten la ruta en toda una aventura. ¿Ya has hecho el tuyo? Además conectamos en directo con Carlos Llabrés que está con un grupo de gente por Cabo Norte, donde los días comienzan a ser un poco más cortos y donde en pocas semanas será complicado llegar. y vuelve Esteisi, la de Palo Alto (California) para contarnos las últimas novedades literarias en cuestión de viajes en moto.

INTERVIEW BEGINS AT 21:00 (The slight audio issues do clear up 17 min into the interview...Please forgive us, and try and enjoy) Back in 1965 in Palo Alto California a group of guys started playing music together, soon they would become The Grateful Dead and would go on to provide the soundtrack for a generation and beyond. Quite possibly the American Rock band, the Dead have endured long beyond anyone's wildest dreams and millions of Dead Head's to this day stay loyal and passionate. Dennis McNally was brought into the inner circle of Jerry and Company and became the official biographer of American music's most iconic band. His book Long Strange Trip gives us an insiders view of the music, the band, the fans and the phenomenon. And tonight, he joins us, with special guest co-host historian and Dead Head Robert Anderson to talk about the Dead, their legacy and whatever else we thought about rambling about So kick back, enjoy and please rate and share the show..let's keep the audience growing.

If our relationships aren't working, nothing seems to work, right? In the episode, learn why criticism, defensiveness, contempt and stonewalling are the, “Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse” or the most certain predictors of relationship failure–and what to do about it. Dr. Bob Navarra is a licensed family therapist who for many years has worked with couples in addiction recovery. Dr. Navarra has extensive training in the Gottman Method which means he's interested in teaching a “relational” approach to a more satisfactory marriage or partnership. This means he helps individuals to see how their parts in a relationship interact and affect the whole relationship. As all of health care is beginning to look at more holistic and integrated models, Dr. Navarra brings this most helpful and cutting edge work to couples in addiction recovery. Bob explains that couples with addiction as an issue, have FOUR times greater divorce rates and how this better understanding of what's actually happening to our relationships can hopefully turn that statistic around. Dr. Navarra is in private practice in Palo Alto California and a research associate at the Mental Health Research Institute there. He is also the co-founder of the Center for Couples in Recovery. Additionally, Dr. Navarra will be conducting his practice based research at CRC Health Group's, Bayside Marin, a highly respected addiction treatment facility in Marin County, California and Edgewood Seattle Addiction Services in the state of Washington. If you're in relationship and want it to be a healthier and happier place, listen in to the wisdom of this learned, and communicative man. Please learn more at www.RobertNavarra.net.

Dr. Pearson Cross, seasoned political analyst, joined Discover Lafayette to discuss the political climate in this 2020 election cycle. Early voting will run through Oct. 27, 2020, preceding the November 3rd election, and it seemed a good time to have Dr. Cross join us and discuss the political landscape here and across the region. Dr. Cross is a respected professor on UL - Lafayette's campus as well as our community, serving as Interim Head of the Department of Political Science, Associate Dean of the College of Liberal Arts, and an Associate Professor in the Department of Political Science. He is host of a weekly radio show, Bayou to Beltway on KRVS (88.7 FM), that focuses on politics and policy, and is a frequent commentator on political issues for news media at the national, state and local levels. As a young man, Cross always wanted to be a musician and actually dropped out of college and played rock and jazz for about ten years, traveling across the Western U. S. But a "sit down" gig in Palo Alto allowed him the opportunity to stay in one place to make a living and he realized he needed to do something different, to go back to school. Dr. Pearson Cross (pictured far right) in Banshee, the band in which he performed as a young man as they toured the Western U. S. Dr. Cross found his calling in teaching political science while working in Palo Alto CA and returned to school after taking a ten-year break from college. A political science class spurred his interest in the subject. A teacher/mentor encouraged him to earn a PhD and pursue a career in teaching, a vocation which mirrored that of his parents and one he never dreamed he would follow. After a stint at UL - Monroe, Dr. Cross ended up in South Louisiana at UL - Lafayette where he is raising his family and has become a part of the political landscape. COVID has turned the 2020 election cycle upside down with its resulting need to social distance and limit large gatherings. Cross reminisced about the days of "retail politics" in which politicians such as Edwin Edwards would work six or seven events a day as a way to meet constituents, march in parades, kiss babies, and raise funds; those days are "pretty much done" and social media has become more and more important. Today, the "Matthew Principle" rules: "To those who have, get. To those who are given, more is given," says Cross. If a candidate already has a reputation and a fundraising operation, they can raise funds. But newcomers are at a great disadvantage. There is less door to door interactions. Incumbents are at a great advantage and can get by with much less advertising. Dr. Cross anticipates a great surge in mail in/early voting and at the time of our interview, 15 million people in the U. S. had cast ballots early. On the day of this posting, October 23, 2020, at least 51 million people have already voted in advance of the November 3rd election, which number represents over a third of all votes cast in the 2016 presidential election. In some states everyone is allowed to vote by mail; in Louisiana, there are a limited number of reasons that allow mail-in ballots such as having had COVID, being over 65 years of age, or having a recognized disability. Cross stressed that while many conservatives believe that mail-in balloting leads to broad and pervasive fraud, there have been no findings to that effect although there are occasional findings of illegality or altered ballots. Cross predicts that the national election results will be determined the night of November 3rd as Joe Biden appears headed to a solid victory. At the time of this interview, Biden had a commanding lead in the polls yet in the aftermath of the October 22nd debate, numbers are shifting slightly with Biden slipping among Independents. Swing states such as Florida, Michigan, and Texas will once again hold the key to victory for the successful candidate. National political news has crowded out state and local po...

"Do you want to be safe or do you want to be free?" As a child, Swati learned from her parents about resilience. With a father who lived through refugee camps to a mother who taught her about pushing through regardless of experiences, Swati learned early to fight for what she wanted. After taking time off to care for her children, she put her foot down and followed her principals. Unwilling to take a step back after a break, Swati stuck to her values and would not compromise. Join in on the conversation with Pratima Gluckman and Swati Bhatia as they discuss how to use your support systems and apply resilience and find the purpose to keep moving on. ____________________________________________________________Swati Bhatia is Chief Payments Risk Officer at Stripe Inc., where her team’s responsibility is to ensure that financial losses are minimized across Stripe’s platform, financial crimes are mitigated, and to ensure Compliance.Prior to Stripe, Swati held various Vice President positions at PayPal. In her last role, she headed a global team of 700+ associates comprising Business Analysts, Data Scientists, Product Managers, Program Managers and Back-end Fraud / Credit Operations Associates. Her team was responsible for managing losses and risk experience for PayPal’s Payments business globally.She has built her career as someone who solves business problems and creates impact at scale and who knows that impact created through an inspired and aligned team is far scalable and enjoyable than attempting to create impact through individual brilliance. She strives to inspire the people around her to be their best. She is adept at building and leading cross-functional teams and driving cultural change.Swati holds an M.S. (Finance) from Birla Institute of Technology & Sciences, Pilani (1993-97). She is married with two sons aged 14 & 11, and lives in Palo Alto CA.
Check out this interview with Vote16PA's Antonia and Rachel where they talked about how they started Vote16PA, why teenagers should get involved in local politics, and why 16 year olds should be able to vote in municipal elections.
Monte grew up in Palo Alto CA then spent 2 years traveling the world as part of his college experience followed by several years at a religious commune in AZ before a 20-year career in software. For the past 10 years he has been Director of Care and Recovery at Menlo Park Presbyterian church where he hosts a number of support groups as well as prayer teams and support volunteers like those in the Stephen Ministry that we'll be talking about. Since late 2010 he has also been Executive director of Achungo, (http://achungo.org/about/) a US non-profit that builds and supports schools for orphans in southwest Kenya with over 700 students currently in their care. He has been married for 25 years and has 3 adult sons and an adult daughter who had been orphaned in Russia. Raising 3 boys was a steep-learning experience that taught him a lot of patience and adaptability. Surviving the divorce of his first marriage was an experience of coping with excruciating adversity. From his children in Kenya who, if they are fortunate, grow up in mud huts without water or electricity, he has learned the true meaning of resilience. And from the many individuals in his support groups and who come to him for a listening ear and prayer and for resources to help them in their pain and struggle, he has learned that hardship can be a door to a resilient life. https://menlo.church/menlopark/serve/stephen-ministry https://menlo.church/sanjose/connect/support-recovery to reach the host: https://www.facebook.com/catalystforchangestories catalystforchange20@gmail.com YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdWXiilXqrHS4YhmkVc8hBg/
In this two-part discussion, Dr. Hansen and I talk about shifts in mental health approaches and offer suggestions to help reframe the subtle yet strategic outcomes. In the beginning portion of our discussion, Dr. Hansen wears her hat as the director of the Stanford's Well-being Initiative and speaks on her perspective of the ‘pillars of well-being'. She elaborates on her experience by introducing 8 main pillars of wellbeing that focus to offer an approach of holistic care to students and staff. These pillars include, Eat, Connect, Sex, Sleep, Money, Feel, Seek, and Move. As times have changed, so have mental health tactics. When it comes to the discourses around mental health, there seems to be a global shift from a disease-based model to a more holistic, accepting, and integrated model. We used to believe that the absence of disease meant wellness and now we are reframing our lens to look into a person's overall sense of wellbeing. With this in mind, Dr. Hansen brings her realistic and practical tips to help us look at creating balance amongst all these factors. In the second half of our conversation, Dr. Hansen shifts gears and wears her hat as the co-author of The Ethical Sellout. Through this perspective she guides us to make sense of what may seem as some rather impossible decisions that we have to make in our daily lives. With this frame of reference, Dr. Hansen provides a structure to help us maintain our integrity in the age of compromise. Dr. Inge Hansen is a Clinical Psychologist and Director of Well-Being at Stanford University. She is also the co-founder and Director of the Weiland Health Initiative, which is dedicated to promoting mental health and wellness across all genders and sexualities. This initiative has generated a variety of innovative clinical and educational programs at Stanford and beyond. Dr. Hansen is also a co-founder of Gender-Inclusive Stanford, a campus-wide initiative dedicated to improving the campus environment for trans and non-binary students. Dr. Hansen has developed several new academic courses in the realm of gender and sexualities, including Challenging Sex & Gender Dichotomies in Medicine, Human Sexual Diversity and Health, and Transgender Studies. She is a popular speaker and consultant on diversity and inclusion topics. Last spring she was the inaugural winner of the Christine Griffith Award for Student Well-Being. For four years she has had the honor of co-organizing and hosting North America's World Sexual Health Day together with Dr. Sara Nazzerzadeh. Dr. Hansen's book, The Ethical Sellout, co-authored with Lily Zheng, was released in October 2019
One thing I was recognizing very quickly was that, at that time, there was very little guidance from the CDC. A lot of the information was coming from publications from the Chinese experience and the changes that needed to be put in place were really things that hadn't been done before. —Rajesh Shah, MD, FSIRWarren Krackov, MD, FSIR, speaks with Rajesh Shah, MD, FSIR, an interventional radiologist in the California Bay Area, about his region's experience with the pandemic and the role he played in the development of the Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) COVID-19 Toolkit.

SILICON VALLEY COFFEE Episode 44, Part 2 Coupa Cafe 538 Ramona St Palo Alto, CA 94301 This week we are again in Palo Alto California at Coupa Cafe. From a group chat saying “Who wants coffee” to marriage. How did Jean Paul, Co owner of Coupa Cafe, meet his Bolivian wife, and how did coffee become the matchmaker? With a degree in Economics from Stanford, how do you end up becoming co-owner and IT wizard of the Coupa Cafe? Jean Paul, who has worked at Coupa Cafe since the age of 18 will explain all in this deep dive interview in Palo Alto California. What does it take to be a successful DJ when your DJ knowledge is zero? Being a computer expert helps! A great story, on how being hoodwinked early in life can help you reach your goals. Who are the “regulars” and why does he love them so much? Why do venture capitalists, and all the heavyweights form the tech industry love to come to Coupa? Is there more than one type of angel? Learn why he loves his Venezuela, (the country in which he was raised), his sadness at the state of the country, and why they still run a coffee shop there. Although he loves dark roast, Jean Paul explains the economics of dark versus light roast. Is it a way to make " less" profit...coffee? All I'm saying is "shrinkage Jerry shrinkage"! In this weeks segment on free refills, we asked Nancy Coupal owner of Coupa Cafe to respond to some questions about getting coffee, from a country in chaos, inflation and how it is all affecting the people of Venezuela. A fascinating conversation about a country in dire straits. This week in coffee facts, the question was about caffeine, and how it is, or is not related to the roasting process. Misconceptions and facts,revealed. What exactly is a one, or two pop roast, and what determines the "burnt" taste profile common in brand?

During the first committee meeting in Sept 2019, Chairman Jerry Nadler read his opening statement by kicking America's cops in the balls, nothing unusual with the left. Now Shad Slim which runs America's hate network in his opening statement declared a national standard for policing, easier to control one than 18,000 police agencies. Now President Obama had created the committee on police reform in 2017 but this is part two. Another witness that gave testimony was Ron Davis, 30 years of law enforcement. Starting in 1985 within the confines of the Oakland Police Department lasting 20 years and 8 years with the City of Palo Alto CA. Now Mr. Davis gave this testimony: "These are not new problems or ideas. Much work has been done over the past ten years to improve our policing practices and systems, including the seminal work of the President’s Task Force on 21st Century Policing. With that being said, Mr. Chairman, my concern today is not that we haven’t made progress in our policing practices. My concern is that this progress has stopped and we are now erasing that progress with DOJ’s current efforts to head back to the policing practices of the ‘90s. I was a street cop in Oakland during the ‘80s and 90s and I can tell you firsthand that this nostalgia for the policing practices of those years is misplaced. As an Oakland officer I worked in specialized units, including as an undercover officer purchasing narcotics, that resulted in thousands of arrests of mostly young black men of color while simultaneously watching the homicide rate climb to over 170. I also witnessed how these policing practices destroyed communities of color and the future of thousands of young men of color by treating drug addiction as a crime and with unfair sentencing practices. We now know that these practices and tactics did not work, and they caused significant collateral damage." But their is one problem with this statement. I simple review of who was the Mayor of Oakland during the 80's and 90's reviled the following: 1977-1991 Mayor Oakland CA, Lionel Joseph Wilson, Democrat and the first African American Mayor in Oakland. 1991-1999 Mayor Oakland CA, Elihu Harris, Democrat and African American 1999-2007 Mayor Oakland CA, Jerry "MoonBeam" Brown, Democrat and Chairman of the California Democratic Party. So three Democratic Mayors in Oakland during this time frame Mr. Davis indicates high crime and homicide in the 80's and 90's what a miss opportunity for the Democratic's and the two African American Mayors, what a shame. So now these clowns say its President Trumps fault. Simply amazing. What’s up next: Cannabidiol CBD & Medical Marijuana with Superhero Co-host Mike Sierra #113.

Tales of a Red Clay Rambler: A pottery and ceramic art podcast
Today on the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast I have an interview with Danielle McDaniel. In 1982 she started teaching in the public schools of middle Tennessee focusing on short ceramic workshops that encourage creativity and confidence in children. As demand for her workshops grew, she developed “The Clay Lady Way,” an education program for teachers that includes videos, books, and ceramic curriculum. In our interview we talk about how secondary education changed during her career and expanding her business to include a physical location in Nashville, which hosts a school with 275 weekly students, an artist co-op with 65 artists, and the clay distributor Mid-South Ceramics.

Change is constant these days. But when you change your business model, how does your recruiting strategy need to change? Russell Jones found out. He’s CEO & Co-Founder of Cargo Chief, based in Palo Alto CA. Cargo Chief initially started as a rapidly growing tech-enabled freight brokerage. But then other third-party logistics firms said his technology was better than anything they could find. So, Cargo Chief sold its Chicago brokerage business and is now exclusively licensing its technology to others. It transformed from brokerage to software company. In this 20-minute conversation, Russell reveals how he changed the talent strategy to match.

Episode 160 of the Jason & Scot show was recorded on Monday, January 14th, 2019. http://jasonandscot.com New beta feature - Google Automated Transcription of the show Transcript Jason: [0:24] Welcome to the Jason and Scott show this is episode 160 being recorded on Monday January 14th, 2019 I'm your host Jason retailgeek Goldberg and as usual I'm here with your clothes Scot Wingo. Scot: [0:40] Jason a welcome back Jason Scott show listeners Jason's is one of those rare episodes where we are actually in the same room. Jason: [0:47] I know it's super exciting I've always enjoyed getting the opportunity to spend some real life time with you. Scot: [0:53] Collie time yeah yeah so we are live live life here from New York City I am looking out of Jason's fancy hotel room and I can see the Empire State Building which is home to many Amazon stores and fulfillment centers near in New York. Jason: [1:08] And there's a Starbucks in that building that delivers. Scot: [1:13] Leave it to Jason to know some Starbucks trivia. Jason: [1:15] I'm desperate to find a way to work in a building. Scot: [1:18] What is January weather in New York City that can only mean one thing we are here for the national retail Federation Big Show that are at Big Show and in that Spirit tonight's theme is trippy parts are are fearless reporter Jason has been traveling the world to bring you the latest and greatest information about what's going on out there I'm in first you want to cover he is you went straight back to back I think from Vegas to New York by past the family so hi and bye guys and he is going to start out with ACS report and tell us what's going on there and then we'll jump it in her up so what's good to talk Jason with what were some interesting things you saw at CES that had retail implications. Jason: [2:03] Yeah so I feel like there was a fair amount of retail specific stuff at CES this year while the number of retailers had boo, and so a lot of the Chinese retailers in particular had big boost to TSO Ali Baba had a big boost there for, Services they would promote in the US are like, their supplier services in their B2B Services they have a an alternative to AWS in China that they would offer to Western companies that want need to host Platforms in China, but the bulk and they had one novelty they were showing and a new, voice translation capability that was real time audio translation so Google kind of made some Buzz at the show by announcing these this new generation of their, translate that lets you talk in your phone at transposes it in another language, but you hang your phone into someone they can read it in their language speaking their language and you can kind of hand the phone back and forth so Alibaba came up with this technology we're in real time you talking to him. And the guy next to you here's a translation in his native language and speech back to you so I got to speak to someone who is in need of Mandarin speaker and like. [3:29] It mostly worked it's not like the grammar is a little, monkey but you could totally get the antenna. Scot: [3:35] Is like a translator where you speak and then you pause and it speaks and then the other person speaks and you pause so it's got like that and if you. Jason: [3:42] So that the Google when is the definite pause in this Ali Baba one if you're speaking long enough they will get the translation before you finish. Scot: [3:53] It's hard to like keep your brain going while the things speaking in a foreign language. Jason: [3:59] Intended for remote interactions they're demoing it in a you're standing right next to the person but you are kind of in a isolated Booth so you only heard. But it's remarkable how well that technology is getting the Star Trek Universal translator is basically here. Scot: [4:18] Or the Babel Fish. Jason: [4:20] Absolutely so but half of Ali Baba's Booth was focused on, predominantly consumer electronics and Home Products that Ali Baba designs manufactures and sells on the platform so in addition to being a retailer and a service provider, Alibaba is a product manufacturer and then their own hand sets that are sold in China they have a bunch of like, smart home appliances and things and their pitches. Scot: [4:51] Is there. Jason: [4:53] Leveraging all the data and warnings from their their voluminous shopping interactions to identify needs in the market and design these products, and I into a half a booth was dedicated to promoting those products and potentially selling those products in New Markets, and I say that because that's a amongst all these retailers so jd.com, which is like the second biggest e-commerce site in China Alibaba zapier Marketplace they don't actually sell their own stuff other than those, products that they make jd.com is primarily a direct seller so they're more retailer that, sell wholesale products in China they also had a big booth, same story half their Booth was dedicated to products manufactured by jd.com sort of reinforcing this theme that, retailers that had the most intimacy with the consumers have the most inside that they can use to make the most relevant products, what time is also showing some of the retail technology so, in China jd.com is doing pretty significant amount of deliveries via drone in so they were showing all their drones. Scot: [6:11] The drum Vehicles usually say drown people. Jason: [6:12] Usually when we say drone people think of the quadcopter that's flying packages and jd.com. Scot: [6:18] Does have a like high payload quadcopter and they claim. Jason: [6:19] Does have a like high payload quadcopter and they claim that they make, thousands of deliveries a day with these things in in remote villages, but the way higher volume stuff is they have autonomous vehicles these little mini size Vehicles even smaller than like a smart car that are mostly like storage capacity and it's kind of like, shopping cart the drive to your house and so those things are kind of interesting they were showing some of the, version of Amazon go type technology so they have vending machines that use facial recognition and so you've you've basically like storage a WeChat credential, and you walk up the vending machine you just open the door take whatever you want and it it authenticate you with your face and charges your tencent account. For the purchases so that was interesting. Scot: [7:15] Alibaba has technology like that too for their The Coloradoan o and said omni-channel they call it online and offline 02. Jason: [7:23] Yeah online to offline and and Alibaba definitely has initiative facial recognition they have pay with a smile that, like I Smile as a gesture after the face recognition to to initiate transactions I didn't specifically see them demoing that in their Booth this year, definitely. [7:43] The Chinese providers are like big ecosystems of of these interesting Services some oriented at Commerce of some sort of broader than that, the third Chinese retailer there that would be even less familiar to listeners unless you spend some time in the Chinese market is, I called sooning and they're the largest brick-and-mortar retail are in China there a conglomerate that owns a bunch of different kinds of stores, the biggest chain is like 1700 consumer electronics and home appliance store so sort of like a Best Buy in China, they had a booth and in their Booth they were primarily showing technology that they had developed for experiences inside of retail store, they were showing produce displays for a grocery store that way all the, the produce inside they detect when the weight on the Shelf changes so they know an apple got picked up for a banana got picked up and they have a digital sign that shows you, product content relevant to that banana what form the banana came from how many days it'll be fresh all those sorts of things that a lot of in-store analytics so they were using video system to measure store traffic and I grabbed while time and all that sort of stuff. [9:01] They had a, at self-checkout experience they had a virtual try-on experience where your body was mapped in 3D and so they, apparel on you that's not paper towels in front of you it sort of on your body and is you turn you see the profile and all that sort of stuff so they had all these, different retail vignette showing technology that they had developed for their stores and what was interesting / peculiar, a bunch of these people had badges from Palo Alto California from sooning I asked and they said they had a R&D lab in Palo Alto they have no, that's out of Asia like they're mostly in China that a few stores in like Hong Kong there. Scot: [9:48] There depends in the booth. Jason: [9:49] There comes in the booth they're not trying to sell any of this retail technology to other retailers they're not trying to license anything outside of their home market and so. Scot: [9:58] It baffles me why they would send it. Jason: [9:59] Cuddles me why they would spend a bunch of money and have a booth at CES I mean it, my Boost at CES just to generate PR going to be Western press. Scot: [10:15] Maybe there are a lot of people go to CS cuz there's the component that is good place to go get little Lego blocks right so maybe they were trying to get, component vendors to say hey come up with a cheaper screen for our future digital self or something sometime sometimes those kind of conversations. Jason: [10:32] Totally viable that that would be a good place to like find new vendors and show them some of the things they're working on it. Scot: [10:38] Expensive way to do it so well these guys gaited in like a retail technology or like you stumbled upon them as you walk the moon. Jason: [10:46] Yeah mostly you would StumbleUpon I'm so that, the Busa TSR sort of loosely grouped by use case so most of CES is into big venues the Las Vegas Convention Center which has three big Halls the North Central and South Hall, and then the Sands convention center which is still called The Sands convention center but it's actually not connected to the Venetian Hotel, the North Hall in the Las Vegas Convention Center is mostly Automotive so none of the boots I mentioned are there the central Hall is sort of the original CES Hall it's all the television and home entertainment and. Berkeley the biggest longest running consumer electronic companies have boots and exhibited forever so that the huge Marquee booths in the central Hall are Sony Samsung and LG, so Ali Baba had a very big boost, in that Central Hall not quite as big as like those three but the next step down from those three, The prominent location and I presume that was cuz they were trying to emphasize their home entertainment products predominantly. Southall was computers audio technology drones and Robotics in their way, retail Pavilion so none of the. Scot: [12:15] So none of the companies I. Jason: [12:16] Engine wear in the high-tech retail Pavilion the high-tech retail Pavilion was. Scot: [12:18] Small. Jason: [12:21] A small splattering of Technology vendors that had sort of Point Solutions so there was like, vendor that was doing like virtual makeup there's a vendor that's doing geolocation in the store, and some reason why even more preferred vendors of vendor that sells vending machines that clean your eyeglasses while you wait that they're trying to sell the retail stores. In the most Buzzy thing in the in the high-tech retail Pavilion was a bread box in an autonomous Self Service vending machine that bakes the bread and then dispenses freshly baked. So the bread. Was kind of a hot Buzzy thing but like if you walk this high-tech the billion at CES it feels. Scot: [13:12] Small subset of what you'll be here in New York at the. Jason: [13:13] Subset of what you'll you'd see here in New York at The Innovation Pavilion in inner mouth. Invite if you're going to exhibit one showing you're one of these small vendors CES does not feel like the right show to meet a bunch of, retailers that would be interested in your products so I didn't spend a lot of time there sooning and JD were in that Southall, the so those were all the sort of retail Focus boost and Walmart does have a booth in that Southall that was sort of just outside the high the high tech The Village, and it's basically their jet booth in it's basically recruiting sellers for the jet / mart Walmart marketplace, for the first time. Amazon had went from no real booth at CES that's in small presence in the past and. Scot: [14:09] We've had Marketplace boots where they recruit sellers. Jason: [14:12] Voice Booth before they've had like the treasure truck and then the last several years they, if that works with Alexa in a million votes in the show 4000 both sent one gaze exhibit space so the first thing they did, talk about it this on the show before but a gimmick than Amazon does the corporate headquarters is they give away free bananas, 2 employees and random people walking by their headquarters in Seattle, exhibit hall there was a Amazon banana stand giving away free bananas that just felt like a brand building thing and they had like a social media contest where they're encouraging you to, tweet out the banana stand and in Winsome Echo prizes. Did I saw they did not have a Marketplace booth that a dedicated booth in the automotive section talking about Alexa for automotive integration, I said I was in the North Hall it had the biotin which is a Chinese, vaporware all electric car that was debuted last year that's a new models this year and Amazon had that in their Automotive section the outside of BMW in there and they're talking about cars that have heavy, Alexa integration in the dash as the cabin 10. Scot: [15:32] Yes I borrow the Amazon Alexa Auto is supposedly shipping I don't know I couldn't I did not get invited to get in. Jason: [15:40] I confess I did not try I probably should have. I feel something that I feel like you called me out of the podcast thanks for. Scot: [15:48] You really let here. Jason: [15:49] Exactly the first episode this year that you didn't. Scot: [15:52] Mock my title. Jason: [15:54] You're like mocking me for. Scot: [15:55] I think if you're a chief creative digital strategy officer you would have had this figured. Jason: [16:01] I would have figured out how to get a Amazon how to enter. Prisoners of the Amazon Auto is a device you can plug into the auxiliary audio input in your car that that sort of, is a OEM Alexa that you can add to your car the people are up ridiculous got her excited about, so they had this Auto thing they were that was mostly probably targeted other car manufacturers to you know convince them that they should be using Alexa, in the Sands Amazon had a huge exhibit, demonstrating all of the devices that have Alexa integrated into them and that was a super high traffic Booth so Amazon had a huge footprint at the show through all these different booths. Scot: [16:48] That's how you tweeted a toilet from that exhibit. Jason: [16:54] I treated a Kohler toilet that has Amazon in. Scot: [16:58] That was not a. Jason: [16:59] That was not actually in Amazon's Booth it was in coolers booth that we do all definitely need this toilet has a automatic. Open and close function in so you can use Alexa to put the toilet seat down which could potentially result some marital problems and some some relationships. Scot: [17:14] No problems in some relationships with the. Jason: [17:18] Use case is by. Just to have an Alexa in your bathroom so you can do things like run the water set the mood lighting play music do you know it's more of a bathroom control than a specific toilet control. Scot: [17:31] But if you ask me it's a pretty crappy integration. Jason: [17:34] Balloon pump. Fancy bday in it so you can do things like pre-heat your toilet with. For people that live a different life than I I do. Send anywhere couple other boots that had some like just interesting retail vignettes in them so Qualcomm is a big chip manufacturer there would have called ingredient company they make, Epson ink a lot of the devices we use in their most famous for making Wireless chips that are in a lot of the cell phones for a long time they were in Apple phones but now there's a big falling out in so I don't think Apple phones use Qualcomm chips anymore. Mom was showing a whole set of retail use cases that were. [18:20] Enhance by the coming internet of things so they made a simulated music festival and they showed examples of digital signs. [18:30] We're Dynamic can change based on the composition of the crowd they're using video Analytics, image of the crowd and their departed and they're doing sort of artificial intelligence digital signage based on all of these these signals that the signs were in taking they Envision that you would have morrible beer carts in this music festival, and all the mobile beer carts knew exactly how much beer they were on had left and they knew, the crowd was in the area where the cart was in so they could do things like, say hey we have too much beer over a year in this part of the Pavilion and there's way more demand over here but let's tell the cart to move to where the demand is order replenish, I meant to do those kinds of things they were showing up pretty robust. [19:20] Digital fact egg use case which I've talked a lot about my Affinity for digital fact eggs, downsides of most digital fact exhibitions today is that use proprietary Wireless Solutions so you put these tags on your shelf and you have to buy a hub, from that manufacture or a bunch of hugs that, speak over proprietary frequency and protocol to all the tags to Qualcomm things hey these tags are big thing there ought to be a lot more of them but they out of use Open Standards like Wi-Fi mesh and Bluetooth sobaka, showing some reference designs for that they're showing a lot of video analytics to measure the crowd and know how many people. [20:02] I was enjoying the music or not and you know they had to use cases where they would change the genre of music is the crab is losing interest and things like that, yeah so they were they were I wouldn't say any of the customer experience words were perfectly Polished but they were you don't thinking about how. Well then you could change the retail experience which is which is interesting to me Panasonic. Scot: [20:27] I just wanted to detect when there's more than a hundred people in the store and caught more cash registers. Jason: [20:35] Obviously if you have those video analytics like they're certainly are simple people counters that are they exactly there's too many people in line at the cash register but your. Scot: [20:43] Got your right light. Jason: [20:45] The proactive way to solve that problem is know how many people came in the store know what the average dwell time is and be proactive like once once there's too many people in line it's kind of too late. Scot: [20:54] I feel like there's all these people cuz they're on the mountain they think about all these user experiences and women really nailed some of the basic ones yet down the kind of at the bottom of the mountain. Jason: [21:03] I think that's up for sure theme of these two shows is that so I could see to show a lot of the bells and whistles and there's still a lot of blocking tackling to be one, Panasonic had a like an additional the Consumer Electronics they were showing a new pickup Locker so a buy online pickup in-store, at a locker experience. Scot: [21:24] And they're trying to solve. Jason: [21:24] They're trying to solve a very real problem. Walkers for produce so they had lockers that were refrigerated and lockers that were freezers and so they're in their Vision was, you buy the groceries they partition your groceries into cold and Frozen, put them in these refrigerated automated Walkers and so it sort of like Amazon Locker for perishables. Scot: [21:50] That's something that's like active in Japan and they're trying to bring to other countries or is it was. Jason: [21:55] I think the Panasonic probably isn't used anywhere I think it's a brand new product that they Envision selling to retailers so we'll see if that gets any traction they also had like. A common theme in CES in a shiny bauble a lot of people talk about is blockchain so they had a. A food cart that was an autonomous vehicle that drove the produce to your house and it had self checkout and it had blockchain for all the produce so you could you know know the, you could verify the origin of all the produce in them anything was recalled or something like that a little silly and more forward-looking that interesting that they, spent a bunch of the space and they're super expensive CES Booth to think of these sort of retail vignettes and then much more interesting to me. [22:46] John always has a big booth there despite the fact that way, Cameron sales are decreasing dramatically as everyone uses their smartphone but, built-in their Booth a bunch of, Instagram photo opportunities and you walk around CES and people were standing in line for like 30 minutes, picture taken in a bathtub full of yellow ping pong balls or in a swimming pool full of rubber duckies or you know all these these different like super colorful well-lit vignettes and very much reminded me, might there now he's dead a dedicated Instagram experience tours things like the Ice Cream Factory in San Francisco where people pay forty bucks to, coincide a venue that has a bunch of pretty sets to take photos of themselves to share on social media in, it's great experiential we talked a lot with retailers about creating opportunities for digital souvenirs for your Shoppers and it and the Nikon booth just seemed like a particular good example of, of creating these these digital experience as a sort of mementos of your visit to the booth and it seems like a smart tactic for retailers to be thinking about. We've heard of some retailers even using the amount of the social media that their physical store generates has a kpi which is interesting and then last. Scot: [24:15] And then last there's a. Jason: [24:18] Avenger there it's been there for a couple years called physics and physics is taking up the mantle of Google Glass so they, glasses that you wear that have an augmented reality display that are primarily intended for industrial purposes so, car mechanic to wear that has like schematics of the automobile well while they're working this year they, they debuted their first consumer product which is $1,000 clone of Google Glass as a much higher res screen that's much bigger, I wouldn't say it looks any better than Google Glass much more processing power behind it and, not sure they're ever going to sell a lot of these but it was interesting the created a bunch of vignettes for how people might use them in one of the vignettes was a shopping vignette where you could put on their prototype glasses walk into the setup store, and they would everything all the product packaging you look at. [25:22] The physical packaging with digital information like is a gluten-free is a kosher all this sort of things and I do think that, augmented reality. A for product information is really interesting sort of thing people are way more likely to use their phones that they already own and carry with them than they are to use these for project glasses but it was a nice visualization of the con. Scot: [25:48] Yeah I wanted to tell me where on the Shelf to find it cuz my wife wants a very specific thing and then I spend like the bulk of my time finding that very specific thing. Jason: [25:56] They absolutely did have that use case like we caught wayfinding we're essentially. You about a list in the the classes have sort of GPS directions saying turn left turn right and walk you to the to your wife's items so she that would definitely approve the wife approval factor in your family. Scot: [26:12] Awesome I need all that I can get. Jason: [26:14] Yeah so that was a lot of the stuff that jumped out at me as being particularly retail specific at the show. Scot: [26:20] Cool and so as you know I've been thinking a lot about the future vehicles and I saw there was tons of interesting news that came out of Cs around autonomous vehicles in electric vehicles one thing that's kind of the summer I saw lead with the CEO of waymo was out there saying hey the sky prior to see us become admitted in an interview with reporter he doesn't see us getting to 100% autonomy so they've been running these vehicles millions of miles even like tens of millions of simulated miles with the finding are they to do okay in perfect stereos but things like tree shadows and then as weather gets bad like Randy Rhoads they do really poorly, it's one of the things I saw out there was kind of more limited autonomous vehicles so shuttle service that will go from point A to point C kind of thing did you see any of those when you write CS. Jason: [27:18] So an interesting Cadence you Tennessee at CES is, people show very early prototypes of stuff it's not going to be in the market for many years right tires used TV is the sort of example, before there's ever any content or you could ever buy a TV that has 8K resolution, there's a bunch of 8K TVs that are kind of Novelties so that when you're when you're you go there and it's like a magic there's a TV with twice as many dots as you've ever seen before you can't buy it for several years but it's cool though. Scot: [27:49] Look at this picture of an apple spinning with some cool water blobs on it. Jason: [27:55] Next year is it gets closer to reality there's there often are way less of those TVs because the the few, being shown now are, really store close to release and they're usually pretty rough because even though they've commercialize this TV in the ready to sell it and they have things they didn't have the year before like a price they still lack any content right there. Of examples and almost feels like it loses traction as it's getting closer to commercialization and then you come to the show the third year and it's like, ATV 8K TVs are ready for the general public now every TV you see is a k and that's sort of the the the Cadence so in autonomous vehicles last year felt like the year when, everybody had autonomous vehicles just for the novelty of it and so like, all the car manufacturers are showing and Thomas Vehicles a bunch of companies we've never heard of where showing autonomous vehicles and all the ingredient companies like Qualcomm and Intel were mainly talking about how their chips are driving autonomous vehicles in video which does a lot of the, the heavy processing for the vehicle like everybody's talking about it this year. Middle year there was less autonomous vehicle hype the autonomous vehicles shown. [29:19] Completely commercialized or ready for Primetime that it felt like the vendors were having more practical conversations with them so it like. TVs can probably iterate faster than a trama vehicles. Scot: [29:30] Very fast. Jason: [29:33] Saying you shall expect that we're all be driving autonomous vehicles next year but it feels like we're in the middle of that cycle so. Scot: [29:38] Cycle so. Jason: [29:41] The consumer car companies were away last emphasizing that autonomous vehicles the BMW's and in Honda's Ford Tollbooth last year was dedicated to autonomous vehicles that wasn't true this year. A lot more B2B autonomous vehicle use cases were being shown and it was like public transportation people movers it was a lot of these autonomous drone delivery of package, on public roads or in hotels are all these different use cases like that in the world bunch of commercials, like use cases like there's a lot of people that are pitching like, way before we have truly autonomous vehicles will have commercial trucks that are autonomous on the freeway and they hand over control to a remote operator, when I get off the freeway for example and so there are more of those kind of use cases. Scot: [30:38] I think it's interesting cuz I'll be a freak we have the news on when I'm like working and I'll hear some talking head come on and say you know, we should plan on vast unemployment in 5 years cuz of all these we won't need truck drivers and Uber drivers and everything, we've lived the Commerce experience for 20 years and we're at fitting on whose numbers look at 15 to 20% penetration so, I think you know I think that's a little bit further out than people think it is I think they're the kind of reading too much into. Jason: [31:12] Everything I say is not going to put truck driver like 50,000 truck driver short of what we need right now right away. Scot: [31:18] Same time. Jason: [31:21] I can't hire enough truck drivers in they're all like escalating pay and competing with each other and so the premises if the trucks can run at honesty in the freeway but then, operator has to Take Over Control. Scot: [31:32] Take Over Control. Jason: [31:33] To drive it off the freeway to the the store or the DC you still need people. A person can now manage more trucks they can essentially they have more delivery capacity for their labor and so the. Scot: [31:48] The premise is. Jason: [31:50] What's close the gap between supply and demand like probably doesn't like obsolete a bunch of jobs in the foreseeable future. Scot: [31:59] But even then I go back to like my previous statement like my cell phone drops out a lot right jack making calls and, I get really nervous of some guy in Phoenix driving a truck across five trucks across country in, is is LTE drops out when he's on the ramp there I'm not sure where you can quite ready for a lot of these guys take a lot longer than people think. Jason: [32:26] Absolutely well in there like they talked about like there's three fundamental technology platforms that need to happen that haven't happened yet. They're all saying that like for their. Scot: [32:37] Brittany practical for there to be a lot of autonomous. Jason: [32:39] To be a lot of autonomous vehicles, Gambia islands like the vehicles actually have to talk to each other and know where they are right and so not only do you need that good Wireless communication that you mentioned like you can't have the LTE but it's there's way more connections cuz I'll. Scot: [32:53] Way more connections cuz all the vehicles are two paragraphs. Jason: [32:55] And so the premise is that when 5G is Broad we deploy the next generation of Wireless technology. Attributes that are more friendly to autonomous vehicles it's faster it has way more capacity for more devices and most importantly, has way lower latency which is super important for like you can't you can't have the wireless going there's a dude in front of you and then have 130 millisecond lag before you hit the brakes. [33:26] Where it where we see you're away from 5G being deployed at all much less like ubiquitously deployed and for your point, maybe it'll work as well as promise maybe it won't there's a huge. No One Believes that these things can be autonomous by just using cameras and sensors they all need this light our technology in the light our is kind of like a laser version of radar, and there's a lots of controversy like the best working lidars are super expensive and have some negative side effects like, potentially could blind people and they could ruin, regular CCD cameras and so there's actually this big problem the vehicles need regular cameras and lidar and the lidar actually burns the the regular cameras, signs of light are there way safer for devices and eyeballs but it has range limitations and things like that, that's tough to be figured out so I totally agree like I think cars are going to have more, amenities for easing driving in the near future but I like yeah I don't think we're just going to be like picking picking menus on Google Maps and and arriving there. Scot: [34:39] Switching gears pun intended there another thing you touched on was voice and I remember last year you kind of proclaimed it was the year that Amazon kind of stole CES arrest reports that apple with their Siri platform in a Google with their assistant platform I tried to kind of catch up to Alexa at CES this year although Apple didn't have a booth which I think was one of the first time so how would you score those three kind of contenders and how they did. Jason: [35:11] Why would I should go back two years I'd say 2 years ago. Scot: [35:13] 2 years ago. Jason: [35:15] Amazon had to show to themselves until they tell you what they didn't have a booth but they were, embedded in their bunch of products that work with Alexa 2 years ago and last year the hand, who's that work with Alexa turned into thousands of boost that had products that work with Alexa so again Amazon didn't really pay for a booth but they got huge buzz and footprint in their logo was everywhere on the show Google show, last year but it was mostly with an advertising present so they had their own booth that they paid for the page. There their logo on all the trans in Las Vegas and all the taxis until you're just looking around Las Vegas you go oh man I saw a bunch of Google. Scot: [35:58] Google logo. Jason: [35:59] And I saw a bunch of Amazon logos but I would argue Amazon dominated because, all the Amazon logos were free and they were in products you could buy and the Google logos were mostly, paid advertisements for for a handful of Google products that did not have huge penetration so now fast forward to this year and I feel like, continue to make progress the Google is starting to catch up so the most common thing you would see now in a, is in Words with Alexa and works with Google Assistant logos side by side it was on, we agreed on the treatments and so there are lots of Brands where support for both products were in there to remind listeners which kind of two tiers of products there's products, Alexa in it so it actually like is the assistant than you usually can talk to it, and there's products that work with Alexa right like so a light bulb you know works with Alexa Smart Lock Works with Alexa a Bose or Sonos speaker, probably has Alexa built into it the toilet odd we had Alexa built into it. Scot: [37:19] They're both so you can you just kind of switch conversations and haven't OK Google / Alexa conversation. Jason: [37:25] So they the ones that I saw mostly had an interface in you selected one of the other like I assume you could pretty seamlessly toggle back and forth but it wasn't like, you could use either utterance and Trigger either assistant and way more common was devices that worked with both than that had both embedded in it like a lot of appliances like a refrigerator, might have a smart assistant embedded in it that you actually bought one ski or the other you bought the Google Assistant version or you bought the Alexa version. Scot: [37:58] And I've noticed you haven't said Siri in this conversation. Jason: [38:02] So I sew a Amazon his net, Apple has never had a booth at CES or at least in modern era has never had a booth at CES they many years they winzy yes because they launch the iPhone 11 years ago, during CEO never one time and they sucked all the announcement out and Walt Mossberg was at CES and Steve Jobs called him and said hey we're having this event and I really think you ought to come mini cannons wall, wces and go to the the first iPhone announcement, and their many years when the most prominent product category at the show is stuff that worked with iPhones or that work with Apple products but Apple's never had a booth and again they did not did not, for home pod this year so they still didn't have a booth I'm sure they had sweets where they were talking privately but there is very little. Siri stuff embedded in products and to my knowledge I didn't see any products where it was like. Google Amazon or Siri it felt like a two-way party the one place where Apple in are two places where Apple integration showed up heavily, the the Sands has a hall dedicated to home automation and apple has a platform called home kits. Scot: [39:26] So that every exhibitor. Jason: [39:28] In the home automation section probably had a logo saying it was home Tech compatible and again Appleton have a booth in that section that homekit was definitely the most prevalent. Call for home automation and then surprised that Apple pulled off at this show. Who is famously sort of Walled Garden company. A good experience you have to buy all our products if you want Apple TV you have to buy an Apple TV if you want Apple music you have to listen to it on the Apple product I'm so proud to show, you saw those walls are eroding, Apple actually launched a skill for Alexa that what you listen to your Apple music on your Amazon device which is unprecedented in shocking and then you got to CES this year and surprise. Scot: [40:19] Apple in embedded. Jason: [40:19] Embedded are play in most of the major TV manufacturers platforms so you now can get all the, Apple TV content on a Samsung or LG TV without needing external hardware and the, very likely is going to have a meaningful impact on Apple TV sales, Roku is already destroying Apple TV in terms of market share in this will probably make it worse, everyone's assumption is that Apple's about to make a major content Play Everybody expects Apple to have a pay-per-view video offering, in the near future the complete compete with Netflix and the, how has essentially as you can already buy individual content from Apple Apple is essentially made this decision that they can make more money, as a Content publisher and they want to have his brought a market for their content as possible so they made this dream that, from being a Walled Garden to being a open system that works with as many providers as possible. Scot: [41:26] We've talked about it seems like things are thawing between Apple and Amazon these know so let's see, Prime TV showed up on Apple TVs I think was the first thing and now we're seeing them kind of so the skill being Alexa there's an apple music skill on Alexa, yes it would be interesting to see you could you have one of these Amazon Alexa TVs and get to some apple content to say say to Alexa hey ask Apple to play. Jason: [41:57] Yeah absolutely seems like it's heading that direction the one that gets voted on and off the island a lot as there's a few Alexa devices with a screen like the Alexa show and various X Alexis enabled YouTube to be on or off of those things in at the moment you can get YouTube on your Alexa show. Scot: [42:15] So anything else from CS that you want to hit. Jason: [42:20] So we touch on a couple of these in so I'm not going to Deep dive anyone but just us or the Highlight if you walked away from the show and said hey what. Scot: [42:26] Walk away from the show and said hey what were the. Jason: [42:28] Themes of this year show. Underpinning in this whole show is there's this new thing coming that's not quite here yet called 5G and so falling that same kind of. Nioh release actually released last, a ton of 5G height with fake products this year there were fewer boost talking about 5G but they seemed very close and the the carriers have all announced that they have, it's now and they're going to be doing appointments throughout the year and it don't have sort of meaningful penetration of 5G by the end of 2019 now that, you can take multiple years to have the kind of 5G coverage that we enjoy the day with LTE which is the 4G network. It really feels like we're at least a year away from meaningful consumer experiences and in fact there's like controversy. Scot: [43:22] Factors like controversy this the earlier. Jason: [43:24] IG this happens with every new iteration AT&T has rebranded some of their for G, at work is 5G and they they got like a lot of funny social media Burns Teemo, a funny video where they took a iPhone in AT&T iPhone and it showed the, you have 5 bars of 4G LTE signal and they they wrote 5G on a Post-It note and like, put it over the icon on the iPhone and said hang on a minute I'm doing a AT&T upgrade and it was sort of a joke that they just rebranded 4 G is 5 G, so so that's coming everyone thinks that's going to be a huge game-changer when you can have a thousand times more devices connected, and all those devices can have a hundred times faster bandwidth and they can have you know at 10 for a hundredth of the latency that we currently have its. [44:24] You have to stop thinking about it's going to be a better cell phone and started thinking about, no one's ever going to store files on the hard drive anymore by computers I'm going to need hard drives you're just like everything's going to be on the cloud and be able to come very quickly to your ubiquitous 5G signal and so, the talk about other use cases that will change there's a ton of examples of leveraging improvements in visual search and video analytics and so there's a, they talked about how I Google Maps spent a fortune, turn cameras on cars and driving all over the country to get the images for Google Maps there's a company that sells the dash cams to all the taxi drivers. Scot: [45:08] And they're like. Jason: [45:10] We have GPS in the car we have all this dashcam video we can extract video from all the cab drivers in crowdsource better images than Google, and so there's a lot of. Qualcomm using video. To do crowdanalytix tons of Booth had this experience I hate where they they use video to try to infer the the mood of the, the audience and hey we can show happy content to the audiences sad, another number boost showing like we can tell old people and young people and sick people in healthy people and change the content there's a lot of controversy over that stuff. Scot: [45:46] What is clear the technology. Jason: [45:49] LG to quantify video and turn it into actionable analytics is like is incrementally improving and video visual searches is going to be a game-changer for a bunch of stuff, so that was a big Trend a big Trend was, a bunch of vendors shifting from their Walled Garden approaches to open system so Apple was the most dramatic but in the old days Samsung would try to make it use Bigsby and do everything with their smart home protocol, felt like the manufacturer is kind of thrown in the towel on being walled Gardens and, for several years there's been a connected home and a connected Health Hall at the Sands Hall but I tell people, if you walk around the TV Hall the central Hall at CES it feel, Legend Mall of America on Christmas Eve like it's super stressful it feels like you don't have enough room to breathe and walk and when you go to the Sands with this newer Technologies I connected home and connected health. Felt relaxing because like there's more room it was West busy and this year felt like the year when those Halls flipped that like was much of. Scot: [46:56] Her comfortable and less chaotic. Jason: [46:56] Unless chaotic in the central Hall showing all the home video technology and it was wall-to-wall energy and Chaos in the connected home and connected health so very unscientific lie, it feels like those categories are really starting to get some traction. Scot: [47:13] And apples playing that in addition dumb could have helped get right so what did you see a lot of your healthkit kind of stuff. Jason: [47:24] Homekit literally had a dedicated part of the hall so all the products that work with homekit when one place the connected Fitness area had a lot of, products that support an apple healthkit a ton of apple competitors so I got to see the new, new watch has an EEG in it and if you start having irregular heartbeat I'll be able to save you if I choose, ton of ieg products and frankly some of them that make more sense like blood pressure cuffs that also do an EEG like so there was stuff that work for that ball there was stuff that competed with apple there were sensors for every, Endeavor you could possibly imagine so if your baseball player we've got you know censored enabled baseballs they, I can judge how well you hit it with the bad if your fisherman. Scot: [48:16] We'll put a Fitbit. Jason: [48:16] A Fitbit on your fishing pole to measure the quality of your casting whatever you want to do, there's a way to quantify it and digitize it in a way you never could do them. Scot: [48:31] Anything else from CS. Jason: [48:35] It seemed like the big the big meaty stuff I know that's a lot of lot of content but it's it's the biggest trade show in the US it's a hundred and eighty thousand people. Scot: [48:44] It feels like there's more more overlap between all the worlds which is interesting you know five years ago there would be no retail kind of stuff. So speaking retail to switch gears and come on over to NRF so did you get here Saturday or Sunday. Jason: [48:58] I came in Saturday. Scot: [49:00] So you have been here much longer than I am I was only able to come up today which is Monday so. Jason: [49:07] Wasted most of your day with me. Scot: [49:08] I did unfortunately so tell us what you've been I saw a lot of selfies and things from the show floor so so what have you seen here it interrupts the New Berlin kind of really into the show but what have you seen that you want to share with listeners. Jason: [49:24] Trans obviously Amazon go has a lot of traction and Buzz until one of the things you see here a lot are our alternatives to Amazon go so some of the. Scot: [49:34] Those are what I would call a legitimate Amazon go tape. Jason: [49:35] Legitimate Amazon go type experiences where they're sort of just walked out technology so there's a bunch of big exhibitors that have built little mini stores and can kind of demo that experience, claiming they can do it with a fraction of the cameras and cost of Amazon go and it's really hard in these controlled environments to know whether there, that's hyper or reality but a lot of vendors are claiming they can do Amazon go for a fraction of the cost and then there's a ton. Scot: [50:03] Wingo. Jason: [50:03] Climbing on Amazon GoPro alternative when really there a scan and pay alternative. Scot: [50:09] So which it is a useful and go. Jason: [50:09] So which it is a useful and good experience in and of itself I'm not knocking Scan & Go I get slightly annoyed when people try to say. The equivalent of grabbing your milk off the shelf and walking out the store without doing anything is grabbing your milk finding the barcode launching an app in your phone a mean a camera at the park, it's a it's a it's a either there different use cases but. Scot: [50:35] But they're a lot about I've seen tons of robots wandering around some of the same platform has been here for like 4 years now. Jason: [50:44] So there's like a lot of the traditional automation like most of it, dedicated Logistics so we've talked before about Amazon has these Kiva robots there's now a lot of alternatives to Kiva the other, fulfillment centers can use to automate them would say there's more of those this year and what they're now is is a bunch of robots that people are hoping you'll use in the store, so there are robots for wayfinding you come into the front of the store, you say my wife told me to get this specific item in the robots is follow me and walks to the store and gets it and there's multiple competitors they've been here the last couple years, pictures of all the shelves and they do planogram compliance the Campbell Soup is where it's supposed to be we're out of this SKU we got to get more they're all doing some some, liability compliance as well now they're taking pictures the floor to make sure there is not a trip and fall Hazard or things like that there's robots that will. Scot: [51:44] Robots that will. Jason: [51:46] Replace the instacart people in the store it seems pretty far-fetched to me. Scot: [51:50] Robot. Jason: [51:50] All around with the customers and grabs products out the Shelf to fill a shopping cart. Scot: [51:56] Robotic shopping carts. Jason: [51:57] Birds that follow you around so you don't have to push your own shopping card and use but items in the the autonomous vehicle that's chasing you around the store, a lot of robots. Mostly feel like super expensive kind of Ivy bells and whistles right now like some of the the warehouse automation is like, super effective in high Roi for for high-volume warehouses but a lot of the stuff I think is, interesting but not something we should expect to see in high-volume in stores in the near future. Scot: [52:31] That reminded me I kept seeing this video at CS of the Sluggers that would follow you around and then the video it literally runs into 4 people. Jason: [52:44] They tell you you can't bring on the plane. If your luggage has a battery in it you have to take the battery out of your luggage so if you're, luggage is also a Killer attack robot it seems like there's going to be some interesting, conversations with the FAA. Scot: [53:01] But yeah. Jason: [53:01] But yeah there's a lot of robot to CES like in terms of density robot, he's probably even more robots at interrupt this year so the robot guys are here in full strength there's a. Scot: [53:16] Money is gravitating around. Jason: [53:17] Is gravitating around the problem of apparel returns so a big reason people return a pair. Scot: [53:22] Apparel is. Jason: [53:24] Is because it doesn't fit, and tell you that they bought two sizes and returned one or they bought it expecting it to fit and they didn't so there's a bunch of companies that are using your smartphone to try to take measurements. Help you pick the right size the first time there's a bunch of companies that are having you upload your image in your measurements so that you can be busy. Scot: [53:47] You can visualize the clothes. Jason: [53:48] You can visualize the clothes on your exact body type, stuff like that that is a big Trend this year a lot of hardware and software around optimizing Logistics and reverse Logistics so vendors thinking about how to optimize returns, a ton of digital in-store in digital shelf stuff, so I every year say oh this is going to be the year of digital fact tags and so far I've mostly been wrong I'm doubling down yet again I think there's more reasons that digital fact tags will take off this year and little boys at Amazon, is using them now and it's like I could open a bunch more stores where them in Sam's Club is using them in Walmart is piloting I'm in Best Buy's piloting on the streets trying to see some real traction from, retailers that other retailers are likely to follow and the technology is getting better. Scot: [54:43] But there's a lot of other. Jason: [54:44] Digital shelf technology Kroger has developed a digital shelf that can run Co-op ads on the Shelf Edge until you think about what a big advertising platform Amazon is becoming, has a lot of. But in the store so they're trying to monetize that traffic by creating opportunities to run ads next to the real-time products so those kinds of digital shells or super interesting, the same train we saw a video analytics at CES we definitely see here that all the traffic meter guys but there's a lot of other use cases now for, analyzing video streams to do various things in the store and not so much on the show floor but in a lot of the content I was able to capture one of the big themes that's emerging this year that I really agree with is that one of. Challenges we have in Commerce is an erosion of trust between the retailer and the consumer or the brand in the consumer, I feel like, yeah with all the negative Facebook press and you know the the never ending stream of breeches like there's a lot of reason to really be worried about, the level of trust you've earned with your consumers and a lot of reason to believe that that's that's a limiting to your Market opportunity so I'm not sure anyone had the Magic Bullet for, learning that trust back or retaining that trust. Scot: [56:09] I like the fact of. Jason: [56:10] People are starting to have a conversation about explicitly trying to solve the the trust game. Scot: [56:17] Call any us some good thematic stuff anything specific to specific retailers on the content side. So I think you were at the big Gala and it seems like a lot of the winners of that Gala event or digital native Oracle Branson Center. Jason: [56:34] Has this sort of their Hall of Fame that they called the list and every year about 20 people get inducted on to this list, and they're like influencers and power Brokers and innovators and disruptors that these different categories and you know most of those almost all of those awards are targeted at retailers and so on the past you have, you know the CEO of Nike winter the CEO, Macy's are you know all these these these sort of traditional retailers in this year the overwhelming majority of retailers that won an award where, small are digital native Brands the two batters of Warby Parker where the power Brokers and the women from a way you know was a disruptor inside, it felt like a huge transition from the the traditional Legacy retailers to the the digitally native Brands which is coming. And then a bunch of the retards give key notes to be honest like it's mostly not that interesting to attend the key notes from the CEO of all these retailers because. The job not to share secrets and you don't get elevated to that level of seniority unless you're really good, that kind of Public Communication and so. Scot: [57:55] Kind of Public Communication and so. Jason: [57:58] Mostly commercials you know focused on Public Information and it doesn't feel like there's a lot of like secret new inside or advice or learnings that get shared by the CEOs of these kind of events, I might be cynical. Scot: [58:12] Yes of the one-piece Contin I saw was a professor Galway or Galloway, yeah I wanted like jump off a cliff. After that it was like super depressing. Jason: [58:21] I feel like he made you sit with. Scot: [58:22] Grab the Grim Reaper so everything is terrible and we're all going to die so thanks for that. Jason: [58:28] It's up here is not a retail apocalypse guy I think he felt like our government and our society was going to collapse. Scot: [58:33] But other than that retails going to be great. Jason: [58:38] Better-than-expected year. Scot: [58:40] Wow wow the whole society Falls. Jason: [58:44] Exactly what we'll try to find you some some Beverages and help you help you start feeling better about your future and that is a. A place to use it cuz we have used up our a lot of time as a reminder of anything came up on the show you want to discuss further or you have any questions for us we encourage you to go to Facebook and will continue the conversation there as always the biggest, appreciation you can give to us is to jump on the iTunes and give us that five star review I know there's still a few listeners that listen to the show every week that haven't made the truck over to iTunes and now would be a terrific time to do it. Scot: [59:24] Yeah thanks for joining us everyone and we will be back with the some more news from an RF later this week. Jason: [59:30] And until next time happy commercing.

I'm joined today by special guest John Sterling. John's been in a number of markets. He was previously with Keller Williams and most recently was in San Francisco California and is currently in Colorado. John's background is fairly extensive in real estate. He and I met years and years ago when I was a team leader at Keller Williams and he was doing some leadership expansion and attraction of agents. Certainly if you're listening to this and you're from Keller Williams you're more than likely will know John from his work in Europe and London as well as working with multiple team leaders and market centers and helping them attract agents. John talks at length in my interview about his challenges in real estate and really not really getting EXP at first. So if you're a little bit skeptical and you want to hear from somebody who was right there where you were dug into it didn't pay attention to the rumors and misinformation in the market and did quite a bit of due diligence over about 15 months. John I'll give you his insight in terms of why he ultimately moved from Keller Williams to EXP and he hasn't regretted it and never looked back. Stay tuned for my interview with John Sterling. Kevin: Welcome to the show John. John: Hey thanks for having me. Happy to be here. Kevin: I'm looking forward to it. We are reunited again and I'm sure we'll get into a lot of that on the conversation today but before we do for people listen to the podcast that maybe you aren't familiar with your background and history and real estate and all that you've done. What did you take a couple minutes and just give a little bit of your highlights in terms of some of the stuff you've done. Because I've known you a long time and I know you've accomplished a lot. John: Oh well thank you. Yeah I'll keep it short and sweet. So I started my real estate career in Chicago back in 2002 it was with a traditional firm then they had a great training program. So I got up and running very quickly. There were some changes there so I went off and started my own brokerage after about two years and then eventually merged that with Keller Williams back in 2004. My time at Keller Williams was mostly spent opening up new offices and markets where we didn't have them. And most of that work was before the financial crash and after the crash I was the guy who would go fix these struggling offices. So it involved a lot of moving. So I got to go all over the US and then even opened up our London office. So I was in the UK for two years. Packed my flat on Brexit vote day and came back to the U.S. and had been engaged in real estate and just sales in San Francisco and Denver ever since. Kevin: Fantastic. And you're very modest. I mean I first ran into you I probably was about two thousand five or six when I was in St. Lewis with Keller Williams And you were part of the group that was essentially acquiring market centers and expanding and you guys were rocking and rolling and obviously lots changed for everybody after the market shifted. I was excited and it was a long very detailed due diligence process before you moved over to EXP you and I had conversations over I don't know probably 15 months or so. And I think for people listening because the whole genesis for this podcast is to allow people you know it doesn't have to just be a Keller Williams but people that run their real estate business like a business and are seeing all of these agents like you were changing brokerages and coming over to EXP. I remember like you like everybody else had healthy skepticism. You wanted to understand it you were from the outside you were part of a gigantic franchise system and there was a lot of misinformation and noise out there in the marketplace. What is it that you learned that really caused you to start to shift your mindset and say I need to dig into this further. John: That's a good question. As you mentioned you know it was a long process for me it wasn't an overnight type of thing and I'd been paying attention to EXP for a long time. In fact I remember when Glenn the CEO was with Keller Williams back in the late 2000s and he left the start yet. And it was you know I just thought it was an interesting move and I was doing some unique things in the business but didn't really give it much thought. I was happy. Keller Williams still think they're an amazing organization. So I don't have any you know any issues with Keller Williams. It seemed like a better opportunity and fit for the future that I want to create and kind of where the business is headed so the things that got my attention over the past few months and ultimately led me to making the move is that you know I had ignored EXP for a long time as you mentioned a lot of people do this. And the people I've talked to who are in the process of joining you know people who are my friends who never would have given it a second glance if it wasn't me calling. You know it was or someone else. The gist of it was there is a lot like you said misinformation or half truth is I'd like to explain it which is understandable. You know it's like EXP has come out of nowhere. I have never seen growth like this in the real estate business and I was with Katie when I early days when it was growing like crazy. But even they didn't see growth. This is great. So there's just a lot of fear from the incumbents that they're going to get squashed because if he keeps up this pace then they're going to have some serious problems. Kevin: So it is interesting I want to touch on one point because that is something that you know you hear the comments of well they can't keep up growth at this pace or I can't believe they're growing that fast or there's no way they could be growing that fast. And I'm going to touch on something in the franchise system you know there's very well Gene Frederic knows it well I know well we'll come out of the same franchise system when somebody goes to expand a franchise system, this is for listeners to understand and why EXP can sand grow so much quicker. I'm going to contrast the two let's say that John and I are in the franchise system and we decide we're going to open up an office in Palo Alto California and we get a conversation going with a great great huge player hugely influential big producer and the producer says hey John and Kevin I'm ready to join. I want to do something with you. How do we get started in Palo Alto. And that starts the clock in the process right. And they have to go through the approval process and there's a whole bunch of steps involved in the point that I'm making here is from that conversation assuming you get some sort of a green light go I'm willing to do it. There are steps like getting an investor getting it approved getting the franchise awarded in the net net on it is on average it's 14 to 18 months before mega agent key influencer walks in the door of an office or can announce that they're part of that Palo Alto location hypothetically. Now when John and Kevin have a conversation with that same agent in Palo Alto. And assuming they're excited about the EXP and they due to due diligence. We're having them change brokerages in as fast as 10 days. I mean you listen to Brent Gove's interview. He made the decision in 10 days or less with one hundred and fifty million dollar team. It's unheard of. In the franchise systems. Now the follow on to that is when like we had in San Diego we had Daniel beer Carl Wessel and Mary Maloney and all of the others joined in it like a really short 10 day period EXP because they're influential has tons and tons of agents joined after it. So for somebody and I want to get your perspective on this from the outside we you're seeing these mega numbers of agents right. You know a thousand plus fifteen hundred plus agents a month and you are. In the franchise mindset or a bricks and mortar mindset where you're used to being in a physical location. Many many people. And this is why I think that they talk about this. Not being sustainable. Look at it and go. There's no way they're going that fast. We never did. We can't. How can they. And I think that that's the driver is John and I can go out and have hundreds if not thousands of conversations as well as every other agent that EXP. And if somebody says go. It's like when you say go it wasn't very long before you were alive and over at EXP. You actually were waiting for some things. To occur in your business world. But from the process where you're like OK good. I'm ready to go. It was fairly quick. It wasn't like the franchise world. John: Yes. All of that's true. Interestingly enough probably the most fascinating part to me is the large number of independent brokerages so they're not affiliated with any franchise or big regional company. You know he could be one person or a few dozen agents. You know it's typically the size of these things of those types of organizations that are going to need EXP. That was eye opener for me too because it's a fairly common thing in our business for people to get a little experience and then decide they'd like to be their own boss. They want to be their own broker so they leave the company that they started with they got some training or whatever else they're no longer working under someone else's brand they start their own. So it happens all the time. So the fascinating part is how many people have gone through that process achieve their independence so they have their own business with their own branding and their boss their names above the door. I can tell everyone in our neighborhood that they own the company and they're still coming to EXP. So they are profitable businesses that are doing well. They're helping businesses that are growing. Everybody's happy. And even with all that they're still choosing to partner with EXP. So they just see that there is more value with EXP you know from a small item I'd have to pay every year through their split the system was just good for agents at any level. But it's the big winners are the ones who were showing up with teams which are essentially you know they could be standalone brokerages but these big agent teams are like you mentioned they're moving very fast. Then you have the small brokerages who are looking for some more leverage because if you're a brokerage that has 20 or 30 agents you're probably still selling right. It's probably not making enough from the agents splits in order to support yourself. You're probably still selling yourself. So that's just a lot of work. Like you have to manage all these people and you have to do your own business well with the EXP you get to leverage a lot of the stuff that's already built in for very low costs. You can send your agents the training or bird virtual campus any time you are reading online. You can then go hire more people because you don't have to babysit them all day like there's no 30 or 40 training events we have every week. I don't think you can just sit down in front of the computer and say OK here are the training you need to go to go to these and come to me with questions. It's much more leverage and just a much better way to scale. So that was an interesting thing that I discovered just as I paid attention to all the people who kept showing up. Kevin: So absolutely and one of the things just to echo what you're saying and this is happening all the time in fact there's one by the time this goes live that's in the Dallas Fort Worth metro. They have ninety five agents. They're an independent and you know the model is almost this hybrid model which we're seeing pop up more and more where the broker/rainmaker is a weather pick your flavor. Right. Zillow preferred or premier whatever the program is and they feed their agents. And so the lead gen side they've got wired right they might be spending one hundred thousand dollars a month in this case. And what was interesting is she was so excited about EXP. Her biggest concern is I don't know if this is going to translate throughout my key people right? My leaders within my office and then the agents downstream. And what was interesting is Gene and the leaders were in town meeting with this Rainmaker and the key people and he called me yesterday afternoon and his conversation is "I only stayed half a day because they all get it. I met with a handful of people". I talked to him again this morning and he said we're done all ninety five or come and they're just basically working on the onboarding process with ninety five agents making sure everybody's applications and the revenue share piece is set up correctly. That is the wave of the future. I mean I've talked with people within the company they're talking to 25 agents smaller brokers and the driver for that. And if you think about the NRA numbers 55% of the agents aren't independents right. It's the biggest piece. We spent a lot of time talking about franchise systems. They're more in franchise system likes to tout that they're number one but you had the agents that are at independence. It's way bigger than they are. And so when you look at the opportunity this is the next big wave that's occurring. And you talk to these broker owners I'm talking to some in the United States in the southeast U.S. And the number one thing they say is they love being producers. They love mentoring and training agents. They love the Legion and helping people in the case of this this gal in the Dallas Fort Worth area. She'll be on the podcast shortly but what she's going to tell you is I don't like being a broker. I'd rather be brokered by EXP get out of compliance get all the systems and all of the things in place and just go do what we do well the brokerage stuff is not sexy. The brokerage stuff is not fun. The compliance stuff nobody enjoys. Previous to EXP it's been the necessity right. You didn't have somebody that said hey keep your brand keep your look and feel. Go do what you do well and then we'll take over all the other stuff. John: So it really is the best of all worlds. And I think that's really I mean just spending years and years.... I mean all again all over the US and even in Europe. One of the hardest things to overcome when you're having conversations with people about joining your company is it's really just ego. They like that their name is above the door. They like to tell everyone in their world that they own the company and the fact that that's happening at EXP is very telling. We've overcome that objection. You know people are like oh it's like well I could still on my company. It's just kind of you know using some of the EXP stuff too which is great. I mean this is it's a huge advantage for us just because it's you know the more or people show up the more examples we have to point to and say See we told you everything worked just fine except you're you're growing faster and you have fewer headaches. Kevin: Yeah. You know and part of what you did John is you talk to over the course of when you talked about turning around market centers and moving around there was a long period of time where I consider you a non team leader Team Leader. In other words you were having conversations with hundreds if not thousands of agents but virtually on the phone at conferences. So you've got a pretty good basically a take on mindset of agents. You personally were responsible for many many agents that went into Keller Williams When you look at this. John: You wanna know my number? Kevin: Yeah What is your number? I was going to ask you next. John: I had my office lady look it up before I left Keller Williams. I directly recruited sponsors like brought to the company just me but named me as the reason they were with Keller Williams one hundred and sixty two before I left. And there were many many more of those that like top of a hundred sixty two that I recruited on behalf of other people because that was my job right. So it was really just a hundred sixty two that I found on my own. And then as you know it's like hundreds or like you said I don't know how we'd be able to tabulate that but we'll just say north of a thousand. Kevin: You've got a great take on this you know so enjoining EXP and you know coming from a franchise system. If I'm an agent. Whether I'm a rainmaker on individual age a mega agent and I'm an expansion agent that's thinking about this. What are the two or three things that you think that. You learned about it that if you were on the phone with these people going forward you would say you really have a couple of options you could go to a franchise system or you go to EXP. And here are the big benefits of being at the EXP. John: Yep that's a good question. So if I had to put it in bullet form first the money has to work right. You know it's a Financial decision this is a business like we're in business to make money. So we do other things too. There could be a bigger purpose for our you know working in real estate but like the math has to work. So the. That was a good thing for me because you look at EXP everybody is on an 80 20 split the 20 percent caps at sixteen thousand dollars a year no matter where you are compared to my San Francisco office with Keller Williams where I was paying fifty thousand dollars she here is a cap. I mean that alone by you know in two hundred eighty dollars a month in an office these you know it's just a huge expense to be there now. Sounds like you don't have to do to any deals the same let's go to cap but still like I can have that same environments like comparable stuff or even better tools and only pay sixteen thousand here. So that seemed like a much better deal to me. So that was part of that. There's you know a small transaction fee after the after the sixteen thousand but it's nothing substantial nothing to worry about. In addition to that there are certain ways you can earn a publicly traded stock. So it's not privately held. There's not a king of EXP it's all up it's on the Nasdaq. It's a publicly traded company. So for longtime I guess it's a good side note just as far as this goes that EXP was traded on the OTC exchange. So it's just another stock exchange out there. But the trick with that is that it's there's not as much liquidity because it's not like you know we'll call Big Boy exchanges. So really it's like you got to be a publicly traded company you want to be on one of the big exchanges in the US. That's the New York Stock Exchange with the Nasdaq. I go to the two that are reputable and that's where you want to be. So earlier this year another sort of catalyst to me opening up the conversation to joining. Was when EXP was Listed as what they call it. You get up listed to the Nasdaq. So they went off the OTC. Exchange and onto the Nasdaq. You don't get to do that just by choice. I mean you have to be performing well and behaving well and. Know. The analysts and everybody else has to be compliance people the FCC everybody has to. Agree that everything is legit. So I like that. I like that there is some third [arty accountability to everything that we do. Versus you know it's like we have it we have a board of directors into the people on the board of directors are agents that real estate people so they're not just the financial types and the bean counters that you would find them on a traditional board of directors. So when the board of directors of stock analysts and all those people get involved. You know there's some accountability. Versus when you have a company controlled by essentially one person. There's not. Any real accountability I have no piece of ownership and that's I'm contrasting with where I came from. And it's more of a dictatorial sort of environments. So. You know being able to earn stock being able to purchase stock at a discount. I mean. The portion of my commission checks can go toward purchasing. This publicly traded stock and I get it at a 20 percent discount. So basically every deal that I do I'm getting a 20 percent gift from the EXP. It's like I mean you know it's like if you invest in stocks like 8 to 10% consider pretty great. So if I'm getting an instant 20% regardless of how the stock performs feels like likely going to continue to grow then that's good news for me. So those were the big financial components. Oh and then I almost forgot the getting into technology which I'll come back to in a second but the Web sites that we get I mean these are some of the best lead generation sites you can get for your business. We work with Konversion. You don't know them check them out. I think last time I looked to their retail prices were a thousand dollars to set up and then 500 a month just for the system and then you have to pay ads and everything on top of that. But at EXP that's all included in the 50 dollar month technology fee. So it's a 500 a month I'm paying 50 a month. So you don't like anything else about the EXP or you don't care about revenue share and you'll care about the training you care about the virtual world. If you don't want to do your own business whatever you could make an argument that it's just the Web site by itself basically pay for your affiliate vision with the EXP if you want to do any of the rest like you're going to stumble across other great thing that you expected. I'd like that by itself is a good enough argument to make the move so. So that was the money piece as far as the technology goes so we'll continue that thread just for a little background there. I've been involved with tech startups as both an adviser like a formal advisor and an investor for years. In fact I looked it up the first one that I did was back in 2007 was a property portal that was competing with like Zillow to really realtor dot com didn't make it as far as those guys did just it was funding and leadership and whatever else. But you learn a lot through that process. A lot of people understand kind of the dynamics. So I'm very comfortable vetting technology and more importantly not just the technology it's the teams working on the technology real estate in general as an industry as a late adopter for most technology things even today. So for example there's a zip code valuation thing that's clogging my Facebook timeline right now with people asking their clients you send me your zip code I'll give you a valuation. Well that technology has been around for about 10 years now for many years. I was a customer of the company that developed first just as a real time market valuation estimates are now 10 years later everyone's acting like it's some revolutionary thing. You know.. Give me break... it you know if it's fancy tech that's going to disrupt the industry and that's the fancy tech then there's not much concern for me that like that's what I'm competing with. So going back to the teams that worked with technologies I mean the technology itself is great. It's like there's the wonderful stuff I get to use. Everything works fine. I have to worry about it like of course the EXP is going to continue to expand those offerings of course are going to develop their own proprietary stuff. So right now we're just growing so fast that you know the priority it seems to be like we need to be sure our basic system scale. So the people that are joining to get deals done right. Like we'll worry about dressing it up later. But really the team behind the technology is the most important piece for me not just in real estate but like everywhere because technologies involving at such a rapid pace that we're going to have to pivot we're going to have to make changes we're going to have to make decisions that are going to alter the sort of trajectory of the technology that's being used and developed. And it's like I have the full faith in the team the technology team at EXP to get that done. Again it's like we're not a real estate company pretending to be a tech company right. It's like technology's been built in from the very beginning. Right. So it's like yes real estate sales is our focus but it's not a sort of copycat thing after the fact. Thinking hey we need to get on this tech train. I'd like to know I've been tech focused from the beginning. That's where the team's focus has been and so with the company's focus has been that's been our game from the very beginning. You know I trust the team to be able to make the right decisions and keep us ahead of the curve and those sorts of things. Kevin: A lot of people know this because I've mentioned it before. You know I was one of the first sites up on real geeks when Jeff Manson rolled that stuff out and S. Lewis from my team. So you know you and I are fairly tech savvy and we do this and that was a huge draw for me as well. I also find the whole post your social media and give me your zip code I'll give you a report. This just shows that the average agent who's wowed by that doesn't realize that as a member of the National Association of Realtors they have an RPR account and that functionality is built in there too. So everybody has this not just the EXP agents everybody has it. So it's fun for some of us to understand technology to kind of smile at that but you know a lot of agents are not as tech savvy and certainly when they look at the suite if you look at the you know the platform for conversion you look at the enterprise application all of the back office stuff the workplace platform and the collaborative tools. You don't have to be super tech savvy to plug into EXP. And then again that's another misnomer that you know this is for you know super tech savvy agents. We have plenty of agents come through the onboarding process hit the ground running and they're like very commonly saying Wow I had no idea I could use all these tools and you know raise my hand get answers that super easy if you could use an iPhone you can use everything we have. So it's not that big of a deal. Sorry. Or Android. For those people out there.. You know I'm not overly concerned with today's hottest apps on stuff. Right? It's like it's just not really that much of a concern for me. My clients choose me because of our relationship not because of my fancy shiny tools like shiny things are going to change my relationship. It's like Sure it might make it easier for me to keep up with all my clients. Like give me some leverage but it's really about me and the value I provide to my clients. It's like that's you know that's not going to go away. So that was the answer to the technology.

This week we return to the Grateful Dead's first visit to the Frost Amphitheater on the campus of Stanford University in Palo Alto California on October 10th, 1982. This second set starts with a very unusual 'Throwin' Stones'>'Touch of Gray' opener; both songs are relatively new and contain some different lyrics which makes them even more interesting. 'Estimated' into 'Eyes of the World' follows, and I think you can really hear the color that Brent has brought into the band on this Eyes, its is very nice indeed. Post-Drums we have the 'Truckin'>Other One>Morning Dew' with that Dew being charged with emotion and clearly the highlight of the show for me.

Your environment and the expectations of that environment should be persuasive. There is a concept called the Phillip Zimbado’s Broken Window Theory. This theory suggests that a building full of broken windows will cause people to assume that no one cares for the building or its appearance. This in turn will spur more vandalism and more broken windows. In other words, the environment's condition gives suggestions that lead people to hold certain assumptions, and people then act on those assumptions. The broken windows invite greater damage and crime. Zimbardo did a study illustrating this point. He left his car out on the street in Palo Alto California. The first week the car blended in with all the other cars and nothing happened to it. After the first week he broke one on the windows of the car and left it on the street. Just by the one broken window he found that it dramatically increases the chances that it would be vandalized. In his book, The Tipping Point, Malcolm Gladwell uses an example of the Broken Window Theory as he explains the New York City subway clean-up. The subway system was in dire need of rebuilding—a multibillion-dollar endeavor. With the system about to collapse, the focus was understandably on issues like reducing crime and improving subway reliability. As a consultant hired by the New York Transit Authority, George Kelling urged officials to utilize the Broken Window Theory. They were hired to clean up the subways, they immediately assigned people to start cleaning up all the graffiti. Removing the graffiti seemed to be of such little consequence compared to everything else there was to worry about, but Gunn was insistent. In his own words: The graffiti was symbolic of the collapse of the system. When you looked at the process of rebuilding the organization and morale, you had to win the battle against graffiti. Without winning that battle, all the management reforms and physical changes just weren't going to happen. We were about to put out new trains that were worth about ten million bucks apiece, and unless we did something to protect them, we knew just what would happen. They would last one day and then they would be vandalized. The entire anti-graffiti campaign took years, but finally, the incidence of graffiti subsided. In another study, volunteers were asked to participate in an experiment on prison environments. Half of the volunteers posed as prison workers, while the other half posed as prison inmates. The results were astounding. Previously tested to be psychologically sound people, the participants rapidly became more and more hostile, crude, rebellious, and abusive—both those acting as inmates and as guards! One "prisoner" became so hysterical and emotionally distressed that he had to be released. The study was supposed to last two weeks, but was called off after only six days!
