It's a Kahala Friday and we're talking...pies? Which pie is actually really good, is it Pecan, Sweet Potato, Apple? Back on the sports topic, Billy and Gary get into a "fight" about the MLB MVP and Aaron Judge winning it over Cal Raleigh. But there's baseball to get to as Hawaii baseball head coach Rich Hill joins the show to talk about the team's recently released schedule and their trip to Japan. And, as they do every Friday, Brian McInnis from Spectrum News joins the show to talk about the local sports scene, and Lee Sterling from Paramount Sports joins the show to talk about games this week, including a big Mountain West matchup that we know Hawaii is going to watch.

Petersfield’s Climate action network - PeCAN - is to launch a Repair Cafe in the New Year to join the other 28 in Hampshire. Andrew Lee, who’s running the project, speaks to Mike Waddington about making the plan work, where the movement started and how it can help. Working with local businesses and other organisations (like the Men's Shed) It's brings advantages for the environment, spreads useful skills, as well as being good value for money. Andrew says it's also about a change of mindset from a 'throwaway society' and learning from previous generations, and he has a kettle to prove it can be done!

Zohar Bronfman spends most of his time in Tel Aviv, Israel these days. He has a focused academic background, specifically in philosophy and neuroscience. He was always intrigued by the question - how do we know what we know? - which led him to get a PhD in Philosophy. While doing that, he also became fascinated with he human mind and empirical decision making, which took him down the road of obtaining another PhD in AI & Neuroscience, essentially emulating brain processes. Outside of tech, he has 3 kids and a startup. He loves a good book in the philosophy or neuroscience space, and is a big fan of sports. Specifically, he loves the NBA and claims to be a Knicks fan.Zohar and his now co-founder were digging into predictive models, as an extension of their academic studies. They were curious as to why companies, though they were running predictive models, were not making accurate predictions. They soon realized that this was because the AI modeling expertise was centralized at couple of well known companies.This is the creation story of Pecan AI.SponsorsVentionCodeCrafters helps you become a better engineer by building real-world, production-grade projects.

When chronic illness left Cindy bedridden in her twenties, she began questioning everything she'd been taught about health - and later, about farming. What started as a search for healing led her and her husband to rebuild their land in Burneyville, Oklahoma, where TLC Ranch now stands: a regenerative bison ranch and certified organic pecan orchard rooted in living systems rather than chemicals. Through decades of trial, floods, and faith, Cindy discovered that the same principles that restore the body also restore the soil. This episode traces how her recovery became the land's recovery - and what it really means to live and farm in alignment with nature.Key Topics- Healing through food and faith- From chemical sprays to organic farming- Bison behavior and herd management- The challenges of organic certification- Health, medicine, and trusting intuitionTimestamps 00:00:00 – Growing up outdoors and learning self-reliance 00:04:00 – Linking diet and chronic illness in the 1980s 00:08:00 – Healing through food and natural living 00:12:00 – From chemical farming to organic awareness 00:19:00 – Buying land and starting the ranch 00:27:00 – Discovering bison and learning their behavior 00:31:00 – Pecans as nutrient-dense local food 00:44:00 – Challenges of organic certification 00:53:00 – Replacing chemicals with biological inputs 00:58:00 – Managing herd health and natural balance 01:05:00 – Lessons from floods and renewal on the landWebsiteFacebookInstagram

(2:00) It's hard to believe how much time has gone by. Setting quantifiable goals is a huge help. It allows you to reassess as you progress. (4:00) The better bet is to challenge yourself to grow and progress. NSNG® 101 Part 2, but first, a little bit about the Charlie Sheen documentary, currently on Netflix, called aka Charlie Sheen. (6:30) Addiction is a constant challenge for some people. Medically guided psychedelics are an emerging modality for people to use for various issues. (19:00) Anna shares an article about a man who had cholesterol leaking out of his skin. (26:00) A man is following a carnivore diet and consuming extremely high amounts of fat—pounds of fat every day. He developed xanthelasma, a condition where cholesterol accumulates and develops yellow growths under the skin. Vinnie feels the article is a hit piece. The authors took an anomaly and made it a “hit piece." NSNG® 101: Some Common Questions They discuss not needing to track macros. (35:00) Lose the obsession with food! Tracking can be beneficial as a stopgap measure to assess where you're at. (39:00) White potatoes vs. sweet potatoes. (42:00) The glycemic index is a factor. If you are going to enjoy a small portion of sweet potato, boiling it is best. Nuts and nut butters are good, but can be overdone, so be careful. (49:00) In terms of fat and carb content, pili nuts and macadamia nuts are the best. Pecans and walnuts are next, but get plain raw ones, as roasted ones are often in seed oils. (54:00) Almonds are good, but cashews and pistachios are higher in carbs. You'll be able to join the NSNG® VIP group when it reopens soon! If you are interested in the NSNG® VIP group, register here!

A story about rejecting the magic wand approach to AI—and building something businesses can actually use.This episode is for Mid-market SaaS founders tired of AI hype who want to build something that creates real customer value—not just impressive demos.Most SaaS companies don't fail because of bad tech. They fail because they chase hype over value.Zohar Bronfman, CEO of Pecan AI, took a different path. After years researching AI and philosophy in academia, he saw Amazon, Uber, and Spotify dominating with predictive AI—while thousands of smaller companies couldn't even get started. Instead of building another "AI for everything" platform, he focused obsessively on one thing: making predictive AI accessible to mid-market companies who couldn't afford data science teams.And this inspired me to invite Zohar to my podcast. We explore why curiosity beats strategy when building in uncertain markets. Zohar shares hard-won insights about deprecating profitable features, why small teams outperform large ones, and how to identify which enterprise capabilities actually matter for mid-market customers. You'll discover why Pecan almost never loses customers—despite operating in the brutally competitive AI space.We also zoom in on two of the 10 traits that define remarkable software companies:Trait #2: Be valuable and desirableTrait #6: Create fans, not just customersZohar's story is proof that sustainable growth comes from solving real problems—not riding waves.Here's one of Zohar's quotes that captures his philosophy:"You can sell things, especially to larger organizations. You can sell things that actually don't have ROI. You can sell things that either look shiny, sound shiny or smell shiny, or all of the above. But ultimately, if you put yourself in a rigorous test, did I make a change? Did I actually add value to the system? The answer could have been no in many cases."By listening to this episode, you'll learn:Why killing profitable features strengthens retentionWhat happens when you ignore VCs' market adviceWhen customer honesty beats sales promisesWhy hiring slower creates faster growthFor more information about the guest from this week:Guest: Zohar Bronfman, CEO Pecan AIWebsite: pecan.ai
