In this exclusive webinar release, Paul Shannon moderates a market check with brokers Beau Beery, Reid Bennett, and Jakob Andersen. The panel covers where multifamily deals are actually clearing in late 2025, why the bid ask gap is narrowing, and how underwriting has shifted from headline cap rates to year one cash on cash, DCR, and debt yield. They compare Sunbelt supply waves to steadier Midwest fundamentals, walk through valuation reality checks sellers must face, and explain why most 2026 activity will be motivated sales and selective distress rather than a fire sale. The group also digs into operational costs, staffing shortages, financing paths into 2026, and what LPs should demand from GPs. Key Takeaways Bid ask is closing as loan maturities force decisions and rate volatility calms enough for buyers to plan Underwrite to cash on cash, DCR, debt yield first and sanity check taxes, insurance, payroll, and true vacancy before quoting a cap rate Supply matters more at scale: heavy Sunbelt deliveries pressure B assets while Midwest occupancy stays supported by limited new B stock and tight single family inventory Financing mix for 2026 will be agency for stabilized and selective bridge for assets that cannot qualify, with realistic reserves and timelines Expect more transactions and some distress in 2026, but not a broad capitulation; LPs should vet operators with downturn experience and transparent decision trees on sell, refi, or hold Disclaimer The content of this podcast is for informational purposes only.

Episode 218 - The Pencil's Tale - Five Lessons Every Dad Should Share and Teach Their KidsThe story itself appears to be an anonymous parable, sometimes called "The Pencil Maker's Parable," but has been attributed to adaptors such as Jimmy Reed and featured in inspirational columns and children's teachings.Here is the tale:The Pencils Tale. Once upon a time, an old pencil maker took his newest pencil aside just before he was about to pack him into a box. Imagining the little fellow as a person, he recalled a few things about the pencil. There are five things you need to know, he said to his pencil, before I send you out into the world. Always remember these five things. Never forget them and you will become the best pencil you can be. The first thing is to remember that you will be able to do many great things, but only if you put yourself in someone else's hands. From time to time you will experience a painful sharpening, but remember that this will make you a better pencil. Also, keep in mind that you will be able to correct any mistakes you might make along the way. The most important part of you is what's on the inside. And remember this as well. Upon every surface that you are used, you must leave your mark. No matter what else happens, you must continue to write.It seemed the pencil listened to him and promised he would remember these five things, so that he could live his life with heart and purpose. You see in life, in your life, put yourself in someone else's hand. Embrace challenges for growth. Learn from mistakes, value inner qualities and leave a positive mark on the world. And you too can become the best pencil there is. This was the pencils taleApplying the Story to Dads and Families"The Pencil's Tale" offers simple, profound lessons that resonate for dads at every stage of parenting. By sharing this parable with children, fathers model the values of humility, resilience, and purpose. The pencil's journey provides a natural metaphor for growth, learning, and character—qualities every dad hopes to nurture in their kids.Key Lessons Dads Can Teach from the TaleAcceptance of Guidance: The pencil succeeds by allowing itself to be guided. Likewise, dads can teach children that everyone benefits from mentors, family, and friends. Being open to support leads to doing great things.Embracing Challenges and Growth: Like sharpening a pencil, life's difficulties shape us. Dads can explain that painful experiences (hard lessons, discipline, setbacks) help us grow stronger and better, no matter our age.Learning from Mistakes: Erasers let us fix errors, and so can honesty and forgiveness. Teaching kids that mistakes aren't final—and can be corrected—empowers them to try again and learn without fear.Valuing What's Inside: The most important part of a person (or pencil) is what's inside: character, kindness, and integrity. Dads can emphasize that inner qualities matter more than outside appearances.Leaving a Positive Mark: Everyone leaves a mark in the world—through actions, words, and kindness. Encouraging children to be intentional about the impact they make helps them live a life with purpose.By retelling this parable, dads foster meaningful conversations about values, resilience, and making a difference, while building trust and deeper bonds with their families.___https://dadspace.camusic provided by Blue Dot...

Der Titel der heutigen Episode lautet: »Komfortable Disruption«. Komfortable Disruption ist eigentlich eine Verkürzung; genauer gesagt müsste der Titel lauten: »Komfortable evolutionäre Disruption«, aber das ist natürlich sperriger. Es hört auch wie ein Gegensatz an, und diese Provokation soll auch so sein. Evolution bedeutet graduelle Veränderung, jedenfalls aus Sicht des Genotyps; also aus Sicht der Bauform, die Auswirkungen können recht erheblich sein. Mein neues Buch: Hexenmeister oder Zauberlehrling? Die Wissensgesellschaft in der Krise kann vorbestellt werden! Disruption bedeutet aber einen Umbruch, bei dem sich sehr viel in relativ kurzer Zeit verändert. Wie kann beides zusammengehen? Oder noch genauer: warum muss vermutlich beides zusammengehen? Und noch wichtiger: was hat das mit Komfort zu tun? Ich versuche in dieser Episode zwei Dinge zu erreichen: (1) Ein paar Einsichten, zu denen ich in den vergangenen Monaten gelangt bin, teilen, weil diese wirklich coole Beobachtungen über Form, Weg und Geschwindigkeit von Innovationen sind, die vielen nicht bewusst sind und auch mir in Tiefe und Breite nicht klar waren; da werde ich einige Beispiele nennen. (2) Daraus abgeleitet ein paar Fragen, was wir von diesen Beobachtungen für die heutige Zeit und die Zukunft lernen können, und zwar sowohl in der Beobachtung und Interpretation dessen, was um uns herum passiert, aber auch, was das für Geschwindigkeit und Form von Innovationen in der Zukunft bedeuten könnte. Wir stellen in dieser Episode die Frage, was die TAP-Theorie (Theory of the Adjacent Possible) damit zu tun hat, warum jeder Alexander Bell als Erfinder des Telefons kennt, Elisha Gray aber unbekannt geblieben ist. Die wichtigste Frage aber ist: was geschieht beim Übergang vom Alten zum Neuen und was hat es mit Mimetic Ornamentation (Mimesis) zu tun? »universal human reaction to technological change: the tendency to reproduce in new materials and techniques shapes and qualities familiar from past usage, regardless of appropriateness. This tendency may be called the principle of mimesis.«, Roger Scruton Ich schildere dies anhand einer Reihe von wirklich faszinierenden Beispielen: Architektur in der Antike Entwicklung der Eisenbahn und des Autos Kleidung Fenster und Fassaden Holz-Konstruktionen und deren Echos in die Gegenwart Skeuomorphismus in der Software Zugabteil aus der Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts (Modell, Technisches Museum Wien) Was sind die treibenden Kräfte für dieses Mimikri, diese mimetischen Ornamente und vergleichbarer Phänomene? »People have generally tended to resist change; they find it reassuring to be surrounded by known and familiar forms. Reproducing them as ornament on newly introduced forms is a common reaction to the vague feeling of uneasiness that rapid social and technological change induces; it provides a satisfying sense of continuity between the past and the present.«, Roger Scruton Aber es ist nicht nur der Widerstand gegen Neues, es gibt noch eine Reihe von anderen Gründen, warum sich Innovation älterer (Design-)Elemente bedient. Welche sind das? Was treibt nun diese Mimikri? Warum ist das wichtig, relevant? Was können wir aus diesen Beobachtungen über Innovation lernen, die Geschwindigkeit von Veränderung und die Frage, ob es uns gelingen kann oder wird, die Stagnation der letzten Jahrzehnte zu überwinden.

What does true leadership look like in a world obsessed with image and influence? Through a powerful examination of John 8:1-11, Pencil draws us into Jesus' masterful handling of the woman caught in adultery to reveal the essence of authentic Christian leadership. Rather than exploiting others' failures for personal gain like the Pharisees, Jesus demonstrates how genuine leaders protect the vulnerable while confronting their own shortcomings first. With compelling insight, Pencil emphasizes that "character is who you are in the dark" and that transformational leadership flows from private devotion before public action. He challenges us to examine whether we're using others' failures to our advantage or creating space for grace and restoration. Through practical integrity checkpoints, Pencil shows how Jesus' model of leadership provokes honest reflection rather than defensive reactions, calling us to align our private lives with our public message. The urgent takeaway is clear: while charismatic leaders may draw crowds, only those who lead with Christ-like integrity – choosing restoration over condemnation and character over charisma – will truly transform lives.
A favorite libertarian parable, I, Pencil, portrays the market as a mystical force beyond human control, an “invisible hand” that government must never try to steer. This conversation tells a different story: how Sharpie manufacturing returned from China to America, and what we can learn about how policy can shape markets in the national interest.Chris Griswold, policy director at American Compass, joins Oren to discuss his Commonplace essay, I, Sharpie, and what the marker's story reveals about reindustrialization, automation, and worker power. They trace how tariffs and long-term investment helped bring Sharpie production back to Tennessee, explore why automation need not threaten good jobs, and explain how technology and labor can advance together in a high-wage, high-innovation economy.Further Reading:“I, Sharpie,” by Chris Griswold

"When's the last time you sharpened a pencil… and did you have to unplug a toaster to do it?"That's how this wild ride of an episode kicks off on The Ben and Skin Show, where Skin Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray hold down the fort while Ben Rogers battles a brutal virus. From hilarious debates about mechanical vs. classic pencils to the mystery of a stolen Panasonic sharpener, this episode is packed with the kind of absurd, off-the-wall banter that makes the show a DFW staple.
Since 1822, Yard-O-Led has been making some of the finest pens and pencils in the world. They've survived wars, they created the “self-propelling pencil,” and today, we talk with Giles English, about the nearly 200-year history of the company that invented the mechanical pencil and still hand-crafts every sterling silver pen in their Birmingham workshop. We dig into the artistry behind engine-turning and hand-chasing, Yard-O-Led's story of wartime survival, and what it means to carry Victorian tradition into the 21st century.We Want to Hear from You!Have a topic, craft category, or craft company you'd like to see us cover?

Meet the world's first plantable pencil. A pencil you can grow into a plant.
Today's Call of the Day featured a fiery fan named Nick who passionately blamed the Yankees' struggles on the team's reliance on analytics and "Harvard graduate pencil necks" in the front office. He argued that the current Yankees regime lacks a winning spirit—unlike the late George Steinbrenner, who "hated losing more than he loved winning"—and highlighted the lack of a reliable bullpen and questionable lineup choices as evidence of organizational rot. Sal and BT largely agreed with the call's frustration over the analytics-driven culture, but Sal differentiated between in-game managerial decisions and pre-game data, ultimately landing on his philosophy that a starting pitcher should be "knocked out, not taken out."
In today's episode, we dive into a powerful truth: becoming more magnetic and attractive doesn't require abs, money, or status—it starts with how you see yourself. If you've ever felt like you're just not desirable enough, that something is wrong with you, or that others wouldn't want to be close to the “real you,” this conversation will shift everything. Dr. Aziz shares his personal journey from years of insecurity, social anxiety, and rejection to finding genuine freedom and connection. You'll discover why your belief that you're not attractive is the actual block—not your looks, your personality, or your past. The secret? A willingness to let yourself be seen and known. And not just intellectually, but emotionally—fully and courageously. If you want more magnetism, more connection, and more real confidence in every area of life—from friendships to dating to your career—this episode is for you. Tune in now, and take the first step toward living life unhidden.------------------ Most people think being magnetic and attractive is about perfect abs, flawless hair, or saying all the right things. But the truth is, the biggest obstacle to your natural magnetism isn't your appearance at all—it's what you believe about yourself. In this post, you'll discover why your “fantasy self” is quietly sabotaging your confidence and how you can start becoming irresistible right now, without changing who you are. The Biggest Block to Attraction (And It's Not Your Looks) When I ask clients why they hesitate to approach someone, they'll grimace and say, “It's not going to go well.” Underneath that is a story: I'm not magnetic, I'm not attractive, and I'm not desirable. This story creates a trap. We tell ourselves, “I'll finally put myself out there when I'm thinner, richer, more interesting, or more confident.” That version of you—your “fantasy self”—never gets anxious, always knows what to say, and looks amazing. Until you become that version, you stay hidden. But here's the cost: life passes you by. You miss out on connection, love, friendships, and opportunities that are available right now. The real obstacle isn't that people wouldn't be drawn to you—it's that you're telling yourself you're not attractive enough to try. The Real Secret to Being Magnetic: Willingness to Be Seen and Known Let me give you the great secret right now: attraction begins with a willingness to let yourself be seen and known. Being “seen and known” isn't dumping your deepest trauma on a first date. It's showing your aliveness—your thoughts, your feelings, your humor, your enthusiasm—in the moment. It's being curious about someone else while allowing them to experience you. Most people try to connect without vulnerability. They hide behind a performance, hoping to look perfect enough to earn approval. That doesn't create magnetism; it creates distance. Real magnetism is showing up as yourself—5% more real than you were yesterday. My Turning Point (And Why It Matters to You) I know this because I lived it. For over a decade, from middle school into college, I believed I was unattractive and undesirable. Even when a girl clearly showed interest—like the first time someone kissed me at a sleepover—I avoided her the next morning. My story (“she'd never really want me”) was stronger than reality. Later, I dove into pickup advice, learning how to act bold and impressive. It helped me get dates but not real relationships. Why? Because I was still hiding my true self. It wasn't until my late 20s, when I began practicing vulnerability, that everything shifted. You don't need to wait as long as I did. The sooner you practice letting yourself be seen and known—even a little—the sooner you become naturally magnetic. Your Action Step: Be 5% More Real This week, don't try to overhaul your whole personality. Instead, experiment with being just 5% more real. Share a genuine thought or feeling when you'd normally stay guarded. Show a little more curiosity, warmth, or enthusiasm in your next conversation. It's not about being perfect. It's about gently retraining your nervous system to see that revealing yourself is safe—and often rewarding. Closing Inspiration You don't have to wait until you're flawless to be magnetic. You're already more attractive than you think. All it takes is the courage to be a little more real, a little more open, and a lot more you. And if you're excited to go deeper into these skills, stay tuned: in October I'll be leading a live, virtual workshop called Supremely Confident Conversation Master where we'll practice these tools together in real time. Pencil in the dates—October 10th–12th—you won't want to miss it. Until then, remember: have the courage to be who you are. On a deep level, you're awesome.
#16. What was Notre Dame like before Viollet-le-Duc's 19th Century restoration? Was it worth visiting or just a crumbling ruin to be ignored? And were the guidebooks of the day accurate or even more creative than today's social media “guides”? Join us as we rejoin David W. Bartlett's travel adventures in mid-19th Century Paris (and correct some of his “history” along the way)!Speaking of corrections, yes, I did indeed misspeak the name of Bartlett's book. It is Paris with Pen & Pencil, not pen and paper. PGB: Made by Humans.Want to know more?

What does it take to create a convincing bare metal finish without tearing your hair out? How can simple pencils transform your weathering game? And is it even possible to complete a quality model in just 48 hours?In this episode, we're joined by Chris Wallace of Model Airplane Maker fame to tackle some of modeling's most intriguing challenges. Chris shares his surprising success using Vallejo metallics for bare metal finishes—a method that proves both bulletproof against masking and remarkably straightforward to apply. The secret? A proper black base coat, vigorous shaking, and a wider spray pattern that delivers smooth, consistent coverage.We also dive into the subtle art of pencil chipping techniques, where Chris candidly admits his journey from creating "airplane measles" to achieving realistic wear patterns. The key insights? Keep those pencil points razor-sharp and work from good reference photos that show authentic wear patterns. This approach delivers scale-appropriate weathering that can be easily adjusted or completely removed if things go awry—a rare second chance in the modeling world.The conversation shifts to the concept of speed builds, with Dave revealing plans for a five-day Hellcat build challenge with fellow modeler Jim Bates. We debate the merits of compressed building timelines, strategic approaches to quick builds, and how to select appropriate subjects for these time-limited projects. Whether you're a methodical builder or someone looking to increase your completion rate, there's wisdom here for every approach.From upcoming model shows to exciting new kit announcements (including Fine Molds' eagerly anticipated F-104), this episode celebrates both the technical challenges and pure joy of scale modeling. Join us for an hour of insights, techniques, and the camaraderie that makes this hobby so rewarding.What's your most challenging modeling technique? Have you ever attempted a speed build? We'd love to hear your experiences—share them with us and join the conversation!IPMS Race City Show - Saturday, Sept. 27thSQUADRON Adding to the stash since 1968Model Paint SolutionsYour source for Harder & Steenbeck Airbrushes and David Union Power ToolsModel PodcastsPlease check out the other pods in the modelsphere!PMM Merchandise StoreSupport the show with PMM Merchandise!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

We've got a special episode today. Tyler McCall, co-owner of Chicago stationery shop Pencil & Paper, joins us to talk about the havoc caused by the Trump administration's chaotic tariff policies.

This conversation is for anyone who cares about supporting local shops, stationery or otherwise. And if you're in Chicago, be sure to stop by Tyler's store in Andersonville.
