In this episode, Rode Dog and Karl Bryan dive deep into some of today's biggest “hot button” business topics, including Tariffs, AI disruptions, and industry insights for business coaches. They also mix in some fun with Canadian culture, hockey heartbreaks, domains as investments, and give practical advice for coaches looking to future-proof their businesses. Key Topics & Takeaways 1. Tariffs, Trade, and Global Shifts Rode Dog kickstarts with a question about tariffs, leading Karl to discuss how trade wars (like the US-China standoff) are shaking up global production strategies. Example: Apple's iPhone production moving from China to India. While tariffs achieved moving manufacturing out of China, it's not returning to the USA, and may result in higher costs for consumers. Karl predicts India could be the next global superpower due to its English proficiency, young population, and established legal system. 2. The Next AI Boom: Vertical AI Agents AI is evolving fast; Karl introduces the idea of "vertical AI agents" — specialized AI systems designed to automate and optimize niche business processes. Example: Instead of broad tools like ChatGPT, imagine specially-built AI tools just for onboarding new coaching clients or handling unique business tasks. Takeaway: Coaches and entrepreneurs should think ahead about how to leverage AI to streamline their own offerings or improve their clients' systems. 3. Industries Most (and Least) Affected by AI Karl flips the usual question—rather than only asking which industries will be disrupted, consider which won't be. Industries ripe for disruption: accounting, finance, healthcare (especially wearables/predictive analytics), cybersecurity, transportation (self-driving vehicles), inventory management, customer service. Industries less vulnerable: Pest control, roofing, painting—businesses unlikely to be targeted by tech giants or replaced by automation (at least, for now). Expect living and business costs to decrease over time as AI reduces overheads across sectors. 4. Adaptation Mindset: Fear, Anger, and Opportunity Major take-home: Don't let fear or anger about change (like AI) hold you or your clients back. Be proactive—learn, experiment, and adapt. Karl reminds listeners: successful entrepreneurs are lifelong learners. Don't get “owned” by past habits or anxieties—stay focused on yourself and actionable progress. 5. Opportunistic Investing (Stocks & Domains) Rode Dog puts Karl on the spot for a “stock pick”—Karl mentions Uber and Spotify as blue-chip plays, but heavily caveats this is NOT financial advice. Karl also shares his continued belief in premium domain names (.com > .net/.org/.ca) as a long-term, low-maintenance investment—with an eye on branding and digital real estate in the coming years. Note: For Canada-specific strategies, .ca domains are useful for patriotic/niche marketing, but .com still reigns for long-term value. 6. Humor & Human Touch The hosts riff on the heartbreak of being a Toronto Maple Leafs fan and the Canadian experience, adding levity and relatability for their audience. References to newsjacking (tying your marketing to current events), mindfulness, and living a long life (for maximum benefit from the AI age). Karl's Zen Moment / Closing Thought The two emotions most likely to stop you reaching your goals: Anger and fear. To escape the loop, focus less on the unchangeable past/fear and more on next actions. “You'll be remembered for what you refuse to give up on.” It's never too late to retool—Ray Kroc started McDonald's at 52; Colonel Sanders in his 60s. Focus on what you help people build, not just what you say.

主播：Flora（中国）+ Selah（美国）音乐：Bring It All Back上次两个主播约节目录制时间的时候Selah突然说要推迟，是因为家里要进行全面的pest control——除虫！这到底是怎么回事呢？经过Selah解释我们才知道，原来她们所在的地区Arizona（美国亚利桑那州），定期除虫已经是家庭日常啦！那么这一期我们就来聊聊美国家庭的“pest control（除虫服务）”。01. What happened to Selah's house?Pest control is super normal in places like Arizona where it's dry and full of "little friends" you don't want inside. That sounds cute but also terrifying. Selah shared that recently, she and her husband started noticing lots of little bugs in their home. 起初，虫子只有几个，所以他们没有太担心。 But then they got bigger... and multiplied (变多)! What kinds of bugs did they actually see? Cockroaches (蟑螂), earwigs(蠼螋), scorpions (蝎子) and termites (白蚁).That's a whole squad (简直是虫子小分队)! They look as scary as they sound—especially scorpions and termites, the ones that destroy your house from the inside.On that day, Selah spotted (发现) a scorpion... and it was like half the size of her hand! They got so jumpy (心惊肉跳) they had to pack up and crash at (投奔) her parents' house for a few nights. 幸运的是，几天后他们预订了pest control。Professionals (专业人员) came, sprayed everything down (全面喷洒药剂), and they finally felt safe enough to move back in.They ended up getting professional pest control.02. What is Pest Control?Pest control means getting rid of unwanted insects or animals from your home or yard. It helps keep houses clean and safe. 其实就是除虫。Actually, pest control isn't just about getting rid of bugs after you see them. A lot of Americans do it ahead of time (提前)—也就是在问题发生之前就预防它! It's like bug insurance, but less paperwork.给他们灭虫的工作人员用英语怎么说？Exterminator (除虫人员). They're like secret heroes—saving people from all the tiny unwanted guests!03. Why is Pest Control Common in the U.S.?In the U.S., especially places like Arizona and Florida (美国东南部的佛罗里达州), the warm climate means bugs are active all year (虫子全年都很活跃).Plus, many people live in houses with yards—more exposure to nature (和自然接触更多) means more contact with pests. 这么看的话，好像有bugs也比较合理了。这里很多房子都被开阔的草地（open grasslands）甚至沙漠（desert areas）包围着。So it's pretty normal to have some "unexpected visitors (不速之客)" sneaking in from nature!其实这是其中一个方面，另一方面是他们也特别重视房屋维护（house maintenance--keeping everything clean, safe, and in good shape）。People want to protect their homes, especially from things like termites that can damage the structure.所以这已经是很多家庭的日常习惯（routine）了。04. How Does Pest Control Work?First, you schedule an appointment (预约一个时间). The exterminator comes to check your home and yard for signs of pests (害虫的迹象).Then they spray (喷洒药剂) around the outside and sometimes inside if needed.如果问题比较严重，他们可能会设sticky traps（粘捕器）。For major issues like termites, they might do fumigation—熏蒸处理—but that's less common.The cost all depends on what kind of service you need. It can range from $70 a month to $300 a month (约合人民币500-2000元)… it also depends on what kind of house you have and how serious the problem is.他们大约需要每月或每隔一个月做一次，具体要取决于他们签订的合同（他们通常会和公司签订除虫合同）。But most people will do it to prevent long term problems and having to worry about creatures in your house, especially if you live in places like Arizona.其实如果除一次虫就能一劳永逸的话也挺好的，至少以后很长一段时间都不用担心虫子的困扰了。Are the chemicals they spray harmful to people (喷洒的药剂是否对人体有害)?Most of the time, they tell you to take your pets and stay out of the house for a few hours. 但你可以留在家里，除非他们要彻底熏蒸（fumigate）。It kills the bugs and pests within 7-10 days but is not harmful for humans. But it would harm pets at first, so they recommend to keep pets away for 5-6 hours. Just think of it as giving your pets a little vacation.05. Every Place Has Its “Wild Neighbors(野生邻居）”It's like Australians having to share their space with kangaroos and giant spiders-- scary but kinda funny! Every place has its own “wild neighbors.” In Australia, it's kangaroos and giant spiders. In Canada, it's raccoons digging through trash cans.

Entrepreneurship doesn't have to be sexy. In today's episode, Nick Huber, author of The Sweaty Startup, talks about how to get rich doing boring things.

Topics covered include: Finding your next business idea Why Shark Tank is a lie The easiest way to tell if an idea will work Getting your first customers When to "legitimize" your business Marketing strategies that actually work When to start scaling and branching out and more!

Welcome to another episode of the Private Equity Podcast. Today, I'm joined by Scott Cook, an experienced Chief HR Officer with over 100 add-on acquisitions under his belt. We dig into what really drives successful integration—nailing culture, managing change, aligning roles, and avoiding the classic post-acquisition mistakes. If you want a no-nonsense guide to people, process, and performance in PE-backed services businesses, this episode is a must-listen.[00:00] Over 100+ add-on acquisitions and integrations, with a focus on commercial and residential services.[00:29] Private equity mistake: solving adaptive people problems with technical solutions.[01:51] Example: pay plan integration fails without addressing pride, fear, and control among legacy staff.[03:49] Change takes time, but skipping the adaptive side slows everything down.[04:45] “Intervention without diagnosis is malpractice.”[05:12] Change process: Transparency (what we know/don't know), Humility (not always right), Authenticity (real conversations).[07:38] Run changes in parallel to prove success before full implementation.[08:33] Adaptive resistance often comes from fear of loss, not logic[09:30] Key issue isn't just communication—it's the resistance behind it.[10:55] Missed clarity of roles and vision derails integration.[12:22] Diligence mistake: confusing deal confirmation with actual diligence.[13:21] Integration failures often come from ignoring cultural misalignment.[14:47] Early lesson: distinguish between necessary and unnecessary endings—prune what's dying or holding growth back.[17:08] Win trust early by changing non-critical items that don't affect frontline staff or customers.[19:30] Founders often don't work out post-acquisition—PE firms struggle to make them fit.[20:34] Sellers always experience some remorse—plan for it during diligence.[22:00] Ask: “What does ending well look like for you?” Define success before they exit.[24:23] CFOs and CEOs shouldn't be in the weeds—define direction, context, and outcomes.[26:44] Great CFOs provide context, not micromanagement. Great CEOs delegate integration to focus on growth.[29:32] Former founders can still add value via advisory roles or special projects.[32:24] Pest control and HVAC still hot—residential M&A picking up, commercial lagging due to government slowdown.[35:20] Resi/commercial services sector is early in its PE wave. Tons of opportunity, but plagued by poor leadership and weak diligence.[37:37] Rise in fractional execs to bridge early-stage post-acquisition gaps.[38:39] Book recs: Why Should Anyone Be Led by You? – leadership authenticityFalling Upward – personal development and meaningNecessary Endings – pruning for growth[40:30] Scott reflects on making work meaningful in the second half of life—impact over income.[40:58] Falling Upward explores this journey.[41:28] Connect with Scott Cook on LinkedIn. Thanks for tuning in.Subscribe for more episodes on  iTunes & SpotifyGot feedback or questions?

Entrepreneurship involves a multitude of decisions, with some being critical and others more minor, but making mistakes is inevitable. The key lies in focusing on the core decisions that can make or break the company, managing expectations, and accepting that stress is an integral part of striving for success and taking risks.   This episode was originally posted on July 17, 2023 Order my book on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Sweaty-Startup-Doing-Boring-Things/dp/006338762X   Thanks for listening!   Like this video?

In this episode, I sat down with Ryan Hawk to talk about the one thing that separates winners from everyone else, urgency. You don't need another meeting, you need to make a decision and get it done by lunch. I also shared the story of how my VP of Finance called me out on a bad deal, and why creating a culture where your team can challenge you is non-negotiable. If you can move fast, change your mind when new info hits, and reward people who tell you the truth.

In this episode, I talked with Ryan Hawk about one of the biggest wake-up calls of my career: if you don't like sales, you're in trouble.  I used to think I could just be the visionary. The builder. The guy behind the scenes making things happen. But that only works in theory. In reality, every meaningful result in life requires sales, whether it's getting someone to join your team, invest in your business, or just believe in the idea. Early on, I hated rejection, avoided uncomfortable conversations, and thought I could just “build” without ever having to sell. But the truth is, sales is everything in business, in leadership, and life. The good news is that you can train yourself to love sales. I did. It's uncomfortable at first. But once you build that muscle, everything else in life  gets easier.

A pest eradication project at Lake Tomarata in Auckland is starting to turn the tide against invasive fish. Auckland Council, with assistance from University of Waikato, has been using nets to remove the pests which have had a devastating impact on the lake's ecosystem. As Victor Waters explains, the work could provide a blueprint to improve the country's waterways.

In this video, I talk to Ryan Hawk about how decision-making is something you get better at by actually doing it, not just reading about it. I share how my dad let me make small, low-risk decisions as a kid, which helped me build that skill early. Now I'm doing the same with my own kids. We also touched on what I learned from college sports and how trying to protect people from every struggle they face can backfire over time. You can't outsource judgment. You can't simulate pressure. The only way to build that muscle is to make the call, see what happens, and learn from it. Most people are so afraid of being wrong that they never get enough experience to get good. But if you start when the stakes are low, you build real confidence over time.

In this episode I talked to Ryan Hawk about how hiring is a lot like hunting. You're not passively reviewing resumes, you are actively searching for top talent and trying to recruit them to your team. The hard truth is that most people are incompetent, and if you tolerate C-Players, eventually your A-players will leave. I also shared a story from a mentor of mine, Chris Powers, that changed how I make hiring and firing decisions.

If you're serious about leveling up in door-to-door, this episode is a must-listen. Zak Kornfeld, a 2023 Golden Door winner, went from living out of a tent on Israeli beaches to closing $654,000 in four months—and helping his rookie-heavy team hit $8 million in sales​.Zak doesn't sugarcoat it—this game is hard. But he breaks down what truly separates average reps from Golden Door earners. It's not just hustle—it's how you prepare in the off-season, how real you show up at the doors, and how you stay mentally locked in from 1 to 9 p.m.

Everybody wants the reward, but not everybody wants the process. That's what makes entrepreneurship difficult and challenging. You'll be working for countless hours and only see the results after 3, 5, to 10 years. It's hard and difficult but that's where real entrepreneurs thrive. Listen to the full episode as I share about the hardest part about entrepreneurship.   This episode originally aired on Nov 18, 2020   Join Shaan Puri and I for a free CEO bootcamp on April 16th, here: https://hubs.ly/Q03cWPrk0   Thanks for listening!   Like this video?
