From 200 mph electric cars to 20 mph electric tractors, Praveen Penmetsa, CEO of Monarch Tractor, leveraged his passion and expertise in vehicles, robotics, and batteries to develop the first smart, electric tractor. Making farmers more profitable and efficient first, and then sustainable, are the core tenets that drive Monarch's business. Praveen discusses the core benefits of using an electric tractor and how it works with farmers to take advantage of government incentives, making farming more efficient and cost-effective.  Detailed Show Notes: Praveen's background: mechanical engineering, loves fast cars, worked on electric vehicles, robots, and battery systemsFounded Monarch in 2018, the company is currently the only company selling smart, electric tractorsNow on four continents, with most sales in the US, pilots internationallySolution is a smart electric tractor with an app and piloting autonomous drivingFits in 5' rowsRuntime 10-14 hrs for pushing, 8-11 hrs for mowing, 4-6 hrs for heavy operations; takes ~6 hours to chargeCore markets - vineyards #1, dairy #2, orchards, horse ranchesCore benefitsSave $7-12/hr on diesel savingsRemote service and support, day and night - can submit a service ticket on the machine and get help remotelyProduct gets better over time with SW updates (e.g., released the ‘row follow' feature)Can power other things, be used like a generator (e.g., night lights for harvest)Easier to train operators (smart screen vs 20 manual controls)Environmental impacts - reduces carbon emissionsWith increasing automation (mowing is 1st operation), more labor savingsAutonomous driving has guidelines by CA OSHA (need signs that the autonomous tractor is running and no people in the block), but there are no legal guidelines in other placesPricing$90k baseline price + options + subscriptionsGov't incentives can make it cheaper than a diesel tractor, 20-70% savingsMonarch helps apply for subsidies, including charging infrastructure and solar installationSubscription charge for connectivity and SW has various levels; some charges can be offset by incentives with carbon offset reporting (e.g., Dannon gives dairy farmers incentive payments for the carbon offsets)ROI driven by tractor usage, payback ~2 years; has an ROI calculator on the website; needs to be cheaper and more efficient before sustainability elements come into playMost farmers want autonomy to reduce labor costsSells through a direct sales team and dealersMarketing driven by non-electric tractors today, podcasts are helpful, social media, and demos have been very effectiveSocial media, primarily Facebook and LinkedIn for owners, Google SEO, and local dealer supportDemos are essential; most farmers want to try before they buyPartnering with other companies to use their technology inside, also partnered with AgScout to leverage AI for vineyardsBarriers to purchase primarily worry about service and support, and wanting more autonomy for labor savingsContinuously update both HW and SW on machines, some tractors now close to 4,000 hours of operation (vs. standard tractors need to be replaced after 4-6k hours) Hosted on Acast.

Sonny Von Cleveland: Vocalizing Our Pain to Heal | The Hopeaholics Podcast Sonny Von Cleveland—a man who turned a life marked by profound trauma into a beacon of hope and redemption. From a childhood scarred by molestation beginning at age three, a felony charge at seven, and a harrowing prison sentence at 16, Sonny's story is one of survival against unimaginable odds. He opens up about enduring a violent prison environment, including a brutal assault in his first week, and how he adopted a gang mentality to survive, only to face a pivotal moment in solitary confinement in 2004 after a drug-fueled crime spree landed him back behind bars. A mentor's persistent question—“Why are you so angry?”—sparked a 19-month transformation, teaching Sonny emotional intelligence, forgiveness, and the power of vocalizing pain through writing forgiveness letters and reading Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl. Emerging from prison in 2016 at age 35, Sonny built a music career, signed with Ferocious Records, and later pivoted to YouTube success, only to face new challenges, including betrayal and the loss of his channel. Now married to a woman he met through a podcast, Sonny runs Frisky Business, the only cat café in the Coachella Valley, and the Von Cleveland Foundation, while speaking at schools and juvenile halls to break cycles of abuse. He shares his upcoming 22-city U.S. tour, “Conversations of Redemption,” starting July 1, where he'll explore city traumas and invite people to share their stories, partnered with Operation Light Shine to combat child sex abuse material. This episode is a testament to the human spirit's resilience, showing that no matter how dark the past, healing is possible through vulnerability and purpose.#thehopeaholics #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #addictionrecoverypodcast  #wedorecover  #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #RecoveryIsPossible #Hope #wedorecover Join our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record', exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics Follow the Hopeaholics on our Socials:https://www.instagram.com/thehopeaholics https://linktr.ee/thehopeaholicsBuy Merch: https://thehopeaholics.myshopify.comVisit our Treatment Centers: https://www.hopebythesea.comIf you or a loved one needs help, please call or text 949-615-8588.

Ideas always sound good in theory. Especially business ideas. That’s the deception of entrepreneurship. Even the simple stuff gets complicated. Take my guests today. One started a business hauling junk. The other lends tools out for free. Simple, right? But as they’ll tell you, there’s a lot more to it once you pop the hood. Anna Kojevnikov is co-founder of the Lafayette Tool Library, a nonprofit that lets members borrow tools for home, yard, or auto projects—at no cost. Anna moved to Lafayette in 2018 with her husband, a math professor at UL Lafayette. They bought a new home and realized they didn’t have enough tools for all that upkeep — or really enough space to keep them. Volunteering with disaster relief after Hurricane Laura showed her how widespread that need really was. Partnering with co-founder Alison Nederveld, she helped launch the Lafayette Tool Library to solve a community problem one tool at a time. Anna is originally from Australia, where she worked in film and TV, but found her footing in Lafayette helping others create. She’s also the Community Engagement Director at the Acadiana Center for the Arts. Coty Bergeaux was working in law enforcement when he took a family vacation that changed his outlook. Watching people living the high life in vacation homes along the Florida coast, he realized he wanted to be his own boss. He looked into storage units and ran across another idea: junk removal. He filed for an LLC one month before his son was born and started small, hauling his first king-size mattress with a rented trailer. Coty Bergeaux is now the owner and operator of Acadian Haul Away & Junk Removal. Coty hauls everything from mattresses to hoarder houses—running lean with just his truck, his trailer, and a strong back. He does about 50 jobs a month. Out to Lunch Acadiana was recorded live over lunch at Tsunami Sushi in downtown Lafayette.

A Marine who saved her comrades. A young woman fighting cancer. She was stoic, humble, tough. In short: a hero. Sarah was everything people wanted her to be—until she wasn't. Turns out, no one knew the real Sarah. Pulitzer Prize winner Jake Halpern and acclaimed investigative journalist Jess McHugh unravel the stolen valor story of Sarah Cavanaugh's epic six-year deception that upended the lives of countless people. To this day, much of this story is shrouded in mystery—there was never a trial and most of the people involved, including victims and investigators, have never spoken publicly in any depth. Until now. In Deep Cover, Jake and Jess interview all of the story's major characters—including Sarah, herself—to tell this sprawling tale. Binge Deep Cover: The Truth About Sarah wherever you get your podcasts.

On this episode of Deans Counsel, we've got all three of our moderators -- Jim Ellis, Dave Ikenberry, and Ken Kring -- onboard to speak with Umaimah Mendhro, Founder and President of One League, an organization empowering highly promising, underserved changemakers to realize global impact. Partnering with Stanford, Harvard and MIT as well as global industry leaders, One League is focused on bringing world class education to a highly engaged and academically accomplished set of students who, because of location and economic or social status, are unable to access top graduate-level business education.Less than 3% of the students at top schools come from the bottom income quartile. As such, tremendous talent is left behind. By making graduate-level education accessible to these typically marginalized groups, One League is truly a disruptive force for good on today's higher education landscape.This unique episode touches on numerous topics, including:•modular and online education•corporate relations and philanthropy •recruiting and mentoring•Umaimah's advice to other deansLearn more about Umaimah MendhroComments/criticism/suggestions/feedback?

Matt Bigge, partner at Crosslink Capital and former 10th Mountain Division infantry officer,  shares his unique perspective as a venture capitalist, military veteran, and deep tech investor on the revolution happening in defense technology & how modern defense technologies are evolving to meet today's security challenges. His MIR framework—modular, interoperable, responsive—offers a blueprint for effective military innovation in an era where asymmetric threats and machine-speed warfare are becoming the norm.• Using low-cost expendable systems like drones against expensive platforms as demonstrated in Ukraine• Building defense tech that's modular (plug and play), interoperable (communicates across systems), and responsive (quick development cycles)• Moving from human-speed to machine-speed operations through AI and automation• Overcoming hollowed-out supply chains through innovations like X-Bow's 3D-printed rocket motors• Partnering emerging defense tech startups with legacy prime contractors for mutual benefit• Investing in "plausible science fiction" that may seem futuristic but has overcome core scientific challenges• Using the F.I.R.E. framework (Fun, Interesting, Rewarding, Entrepreneurial) for career and investment decisions• The value of leadership skills developed through military or team-based experiences• Creating systems with "five nines" reliability when lives depend on your technology• Understanding how to see the world through others' eyes to engage in mutually beneficial transactionsAs Ukraine demonstrates the stunning effectiveness of low-cost drones against multi-million-dollar platforms, Matt explains why the future of warfare demands operating at machine speed rather than human speed, and how AI-powered automation is making this possible.We dive deep into fascinating case studies from Matt's investment portfolio, including X-Bow's 3D-printed rocket motors that can be manufactured in shipping containers anywhere in the world, and DarkHive's drone swarms that deliver reconnaissance capabilities at a fraction of traditional costs. These innovations aren't just disrupting defense—they're addressing critical gaps in America's industrial base and creating new possibilities for battlefield responsiveness.Throughout, he emphasizes why leadership—the ability to set and achieve goals in a team-based setting at an elite level—remains the most crucial trait in founders he backs.Whether you're fascinated by defense technology, interested in the venture landscape, or simply curious about how innovation happens at the intersection of multiple disciplines, this episode offers rare insights from someone who has viewed these challenges from nearly every possible angle.Matt Bigge: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bigge/Matt's been in Venture Capital for over 25 years – he's backed winners like Verodin (sold to FireEye), ArcSight (sold to HP), and CloudShield (sold to SAIC). He was even a founding investor and Chair of MeshNetworks, which Motorola snatched up. Before he was writing checks and building tech empires, he was serving our country as an Infantry officer in the 10th Mountain Division. Armed with degrees from Georgetown and Harvard Business School, and based in the San Francisco Bay Area, Matt's also deeply committed to giving back through The Honor Foundation, helping Special Operations veterans transition to civilian careers.Website: https://www.position2.com/podcast/Rajiv Parikh: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rajivparikh/Sandeep Parikh: https://www.instagram.com/sandeepparikh/Email us with any feedback for the show: spark@postion2.com

Partnering Will Determine the First Days of Conflict in the Western PacificResolute Dragon: Reassurance, Deterrence, and a Call for Coordination

Faisal Hoque: Transcend Faisal Hoque is an award-winning entrepreneur and innovator and founder of SHADOKA and NextChapter. He is a three-time Wall Street Journal bestselling author of the books: Reinvent, Everything Connects, and Lift. He has just released his newest book: Transcend: Unlocking Humanity in the Age of AI*. The most compelling use cases for AI aren't people OR AI – it's both. Leaders who learn how to partner with AI will almost certainly open doors that many others don't. In this episode, Faisal and I explore (a few steps on) how to get started. Key Points While we think about working with AI as very different than working with people, similar mindsets and skillsets help us with both. Partnering will with AI means asking better questions and being genuinely interested in the answers. Experts are limited by their perspective. Beginners are open to possibilities. We should approach AI with a beginner's mindset. Using AI well means getting more comfortable with uncertainty. We need to own our ignorance. Playful discovery helps with our intrinsic motivation to keep going. When using AI, find the fun that keeps you engaged. This technology will do the logical work far better than any human. To partner well, work to increase your emotional intelligence.
