Podcasts about PG

Tell us what you think of the show!  In an era defined by compounding wildfire risks, rapid digitalization, and unprecedented demand growth, utilities need to redefine their playbook. Sumeet Singh, CEO of Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) and EVP for Energy Delivery, is doing exactly that for one of the country's largest energy enterprises while both improving local communities and setting an operational benchmark for the wider industry.In this episode of the Factor This podcast, Singh details how utility leaders can balance cultural shifts with the economic imperative to maximize underutilized grid capacity and lower customer rates. He breaks down how PG&E processes billions of pieces of data to help predict wildfire risks in advance, and how AI-enabled camera networks can shave critical minutes off emergency response times. From deploying machine learning to accelerating customer interconnections, Singh details how data amplifies frontline expertise rather than replacing it. Grounded in a philosophy of selfless service and value-based safety ownership, this conversation provides a blueprint for combining innovative technology with engineering discipline to cultivate a community trust that is foundational to the grid of the future.More episodes of Factor This Policycast

Pirates reporter Colin Beazley from the PG joined the show. Colin said it is still a wait & see game from the Pirates on trade deadline day. Will Ben Cherington get aggressive as we approach the 6 pm deadline? One of the only big names left out there in the reliever market is Luke Weaver. Colin said we will find out how much the front office believes in this team by 6. Was Hunter Goodman really thrown around as a name the Pirates were interested in? What could be the hold up with the Pirates making a move? Should Cherington be working today like his job is on the line? The Pirates should be pushing for another starter if there are innings limits within the rotation. Colin still thinks the Pirates make 2 moves before the 6 pm deadline.

Built on the 800-volt MMA platform, the GLA offers up to 657 km WLTP range, 320 kW charging, and starts at €48,599 as Mercedes' cheapest electric SUV.FERRARI LUCE BEATS 2026 SALES TARGETFerrari's electric Luce hit its 2026 sales target of nearly 500 units within two months of its May launch, despite public backlash, an 8% share price drop, and the departure of marketing chief Enrico Galliera. Demand proved strongest in China, where its 88-unit allocation sold out at roughly $589,000, with Ferrari targeting 2,500 total Luce sales by 2030.RENAULT PROFITS BEAT ON EVS AND CUTSRenault posted a 5.2% operating margin and 9.5% revenue growth in the first half of 2026, beating forecasts through cost cuts and a stronger EV lineup, outperforming Audi and Mercedes-Benz margins for the period. CEO Francois Provost is pushing cheaper EVs like the €19,490 Twingo and €25,000 R5 to defend market share against BYD, Opel and Citroën, while targeting €400 in annual per-vehicle cost savings.WALMART BUILDS OUT US FAST CHARGINGWalmart has opened about 46 high-speed public charging stations with 380 cords across roughly 326 of its 4,600 US stores, ranking second only to Tesla in network expansion during the second quarter. The retailer is leaning on its vast footprint—90% of Americans live within 10 miles of a store—to combine charging dwell time with shopping, potentially lifting store sales by about 5%.CANADA'S FAST CHARGERS OUTPACE DEMANDCanada's DC fast-charger utilization fell to just 9.5% in Q2 2026, down from 11.3% in Q1 and well below the 15-20% operators typically need to break even, trailing the US average of 15.8%. Paren's data, covering nearly 10,000 ports, shows profitability is highly site-specific, prompting calls for demand-led charger siting and better reliability.FORMER VW ENGINEERS CHARGED OVER RIVIAN DEAL TRADESProsecutors charged former Volkswagen engineers Michael Stamp and Michael Plank with insider trading ahead of VW's $5 billion Rivian joint venture announcement in June 2024, which sent Rivian shares up 23%. Stamp allegedly made $250,000 and Plank $50,000, with Plank also accused of tipping a family member who made $12,000, while incriminating searches about insider trading laws feature in the case.IONIQ 3 OPENS UK AND EUROPE ORDERSHyundai's new IONIQ 3 electric hatchback has drawn more customer interest than any previous Hyundai launch, debuting at Goodwood with UK pricing expected under £25,000 and offering up to 308 miles of range from a 61 kWh battery. Built on the E-GMP platform for the European market, the compact IONIQ 3 is not planned for a US launch.KIA COMMITS $649 MILLION TO MEXICO EVSKia will invest $649 million in its Pesquería, Mexico plant to begin producing the EV3 compact SUV starting August 4, marking its first EV production in the country. The move, tied to Mexico's Plan México initiative, is expected to create 500 jobs this year and 1,500 by 2030, while helping Kia navigate USMCA trade rules and tariffs.V2G COULD DWARF MANAGED CHARGING VALUEA General Motors-commissioned E3 study found vehicle-to-grid technology could deliver five to 15 times more value per EV than one-way managed charging, totaling roughly $7 billion nationwide by 2030, with the strongest returns in California, ERCOT, and the Pacific Northwest. GM already has 250,000 bidirectional-capable vehicles on the road and is pushing utilities to speed up V2G tariffs and approvals, including a plan to use 52,000 vehicles to balance PG&E's grid by 2030.SC01 SET FOR UK ARRIVAL IN 2027Small Sports Car Company will bring its China-built SC01 lightweight electric sportscar to the UK, featuring 429 bhp, a 1,365 kg curb weight, a 2.9-second 0-62 mph time, and a 500 km CLTC range. UK demonstration cars arrive in Q4 2026, with right-hand-drive customer cars following from April 2027, though pricing has not yet been announced.

When it comes to climate, we have the facts, but we aren't moving fast enough. So we need to get climate education and solutions into the places where people already spend their time. Pop culture offers endless opportunities to influence audiences – your favorite movie or TV character can feel like a friend whose views on climate might affect your own. In this episode, we connect moments like this to the broader media environment shaping how we understand the world. Can you be masculine and care about the climate? Can watching a character take charge of the future onscreen actually change what people believe they can do in real life? And can the stories we consume ultimately shape public attitudes and even policy outcomes?

The Steelers reported to Saint Vincent College today as another training camp is set to begin, with the first practice tomorrow. The first person to speak to reporters was DK Metcalf. The big takeaway from that chat was Metcalf saying a lot of the work offensively in 2025 was like ‘walking on egg shells.' What does this say about Mike Tomlin? The guys wondered how much power Aaron Rodgers really had – or any QBs after Ben Roethlisberger for that matter. Joey Porter Jr. and Jalen Ramsey among players placed on PUP list as the Steelers arrived to training camp. Porter is awaiting a new deal, so his situation isn't likely to be a ‘real' injury. What is Porter envisioning for his new deal? If it's $31M/year, that would be up there with the highest in football. Do the Steelers value Porter as much as other teams value corner? PG columnist Noah Hiles joined the show. Noah confirmed the good news we were already aware of – that Esmerlyn Valdez is OK after being hit on the hand last night. What will this lineup look like when Oneil Cruz returns? Are the Pirates in need of another right-handed bat? Noah dove into the possibility of getting rid of Marcell Ozuna by next week's trade deadline. Noah's expectation is for the Pirates to only part with prospects and nobody from the Major League club. Noah said this needs to be a year in which the Pirates are aggressive. How much do owners have to look to 2028 because of a potential work stoppage next season? Noah thinks the Pirates will make 4 trades by Monday at 6 pm.

Real cases pulled apart through the Octalysis Core Drives, sent to your inbox over a few days. Get the free guide: professorgame.com/WildCD Episode Summary Rob breaks down why the same reward can pull a team forward or quietly wreck it, using three cases where the design decided the outcome. He walks through a school in Caracas where escalating fines for late pickups made lateness worse, the sales bonus patterns that produce burnout and sandbagging, and The Octalysis Group's project with Procter & Gamble's distributor Navo Orbico, where a gamified ship upgrade tightened the feedback loop instead of paying for the sale. Along the way he separates two mechanisms that often get treated as one: a fine turning a moral obligation into a price, and the over-justification effect crowding out intrinsic motivation on the reward side. Listeners learn how to match the reward to the job it actually has to do, and when to hand off to something more durable. About the Host Rob Alvarez is Head of Engagement Strategy, Europe at The Octalysis Group (TOG), a leading gamification and behavioral design consultancy. A globally recognized gamification strategist and TEDx speaker, he founded and hosts Professor Game, the #1 gamification podcast, and has interviewed hundreds of global experts. He designs evidence-based engagement systems that drive motivation, loyalty, and results, and teaches LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® and gamification at top institutions including IE Business School, EFMD, and EBS University across Europe, the Americas, and Asia. Key Takeaways A school in Caracas replaced the moral weight of collecting your child on time with an escalating fine, and lateness went up instead of down. Core Drive 5 (Social Influence and Relatedness) stopped doing its job the moment the delay carried a price. Gneezy and Rustichini's study "A Fine is a Price" documents the same reversal in day-care centers: a monetary fine for late pickups increased late pickups, and removing the fine did not bring them back down. A standing sales commission with nothing behind it pays for the behavior forever. Reps chase the next check to make ends meet, and with no other motivation in the system, the commission burns them out rather than building anything durable. Capped bonuses fail in two directions. Targets set too high get read as unreachable, so reps stop trying, and reachable targets get sandbagged, with closed-ready deals held into the next cycle so the company waits on revenue it wanted today. In The Octalysis Group's project with Procter & Gamble's distributor Navo Orbico, ship upgrades inside Masters of the Endless Seas cut the roughly week-long CRM lag on seeing whether a sale landed, tightening the Core Drive 2 (Development and Accomplishment) loop instead of paying for the sale. Rob was not on the project team and saw it presented at Brighton. Nearly every reward failure is one of two mistakes: treating the get-them-through-the-door reward as the whole engine, or bolting an extrinsic reward onto behavior that already had an intrinsic reason, which is where the over-justification effect crowds that reason out.

How should Ben Cherington approach the trade deadline? He said yesterday that you should do everything in your power to win games if you have the chance to compete. This leads the listener to believe that Pirates will be heavy buyers at the trade deadline. Mullsy believes that this quote from Ben Cherington is a straight up statement of his intentions for this trade deadline. Donny Football Debrief – It has truly been a very wacky last week around the NFL. Pirates reporter Colin Beazley from the PG joined the show. Colin confirms that the Pirates want to add players at the deadline that will help them win games this year. Colin also says that he has had multiple people come to him and say they would love to have Mason Miller, but he highly doubts the Pirates actually make a move for him. Colin is not sure that the Pirates will actually get an opportunity to trade Marcell Ozuna.

In which the Kid 1 joins me in reviewing PHANTOM OF THE OPERA (2004), director Joel Schumacher's 2004 cinematic adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber's iconic musical, with screenplay credits to Andrew Lloyd Webber and Joel Schumacher, and based off Gaston Leroux's novel "Le Fantôme de L'Opéra". A disfigured, musical genius known only as the Phantom (Gerard Butler) haunts the catacombs of the Paris Opera House while secretly tutoring a rising young chorus girl named Christine Daaé (Emmy Rossum). As the Phantom's obsession with Christine deepens, he resorts to increasingly sinister acts of sabotage and terror to ensure she takes center stage, driving a wedge between her and her childhood sweetheart, Raoul (Patrick Wilson). Caught between her deep gratitude and pity for her mysterious mentor and her genuine love for Raoul, Christine finds herself trapped in a dangerous emotional triangle as the opera house descends into absolute chaos. The film clocks in at 1 h 34 m, is rated PG-13 and currently streaming on YouTube TV and to buy/rent on Prime Video.

It's becoming increasingly clear that how we talk about climate change matters as much as the science or policy itself. The words we use carry weight, and climate communicator Susan Joy Hassol says specific word choices, like “heat-trapping pollution” rather than “greenhouse gases,” can cut through polarization and help messages resonate with a wider range of people. Equally important is listening to what people and communities need to better handle the impacts from climate disruption. And different audiences need different approaches. For example: adults can help children process climate fear and grief without overwhelming them by offering age-appropriate honesty paired with validation of their emotions. Good communication can be one of the most effective forms of climate action.

Brian catches up with Adam Holz of Plugged In for their weekly look at movies and streaming through a Christian lens. They dig into swirling controversy over whether Rotten Tomatoes scores for Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey are being manipulated, and why inflated IMAX ticket prices may be masking softer actual attendance. Adam reviews Netflix's full reboot of Little House on the Prairie, a faithful if lower-stakes retelling of the Ingalls family's move to Kansas. They also cover The Dink, a PG-13 pickleball-versus-tennis sports comedy on Apple TV with plenty of sensuality and language to watch for, and Bad Counselors, an unusual Fathom Events satire that mashes up Christian camp culture with a hungover-college-kids premise — irreverent but ultimately well-intentioned for a high-school-and-up audience.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In which the Mister and Kid 2 join me in reviewing LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS (1986), a musical horror-comedy from director Frank Oz, with screenplay and musical play credits to Howard Ashman, and based off 1960s screenplay by Charles B. Griffith and Roger Corman's film.  A timid and down-on-his-luck floral assistant named Seymour Krelborn (Rick Moranis) working in a dilapidated Skid Row flower shop discovers a strange, exotic new plant that he names "Audrey II."  As Seymour desperately tries to win the affections of his coworker Audrey (Ellen Greene), he soon realizes the bizarre plant requires a steady diet of fresh human blood to survive, causing it to grow into a gargantuan, talking attraction.  With his newfound fame and romance hanging in the balance, Seymour finds himself sinking deeper into a horrific cycle of feeding the increasingly demanding botanical monster before its dark origins and global ambitions are fully unleashed.  The film clocks in at 1 h 34 m, is rated PG-13 and currently streaming on Hoopla and to buy/rent on Prime Video.  Please note there are SPOILERS in this review. #LittleShopOfHorrors #FrankOz #HowardAshman #RogerCorman #CharlesBGriffith #LeviStubbs #Audrey2 #RickMoranis #Seymour #EllenGreene #Audrey #VincentGardenia #Mushnik #SteveMartin #OrinScrivelloDDS #TichinaArnold #Crystal #MichelleWeeks #Ronette #TishaCampbell #Chiffon #JimBelushi #Patrick #JohnCandy #Wink #ChristopherGuest #Customer #BillMurray #Arthur #StanJones #Narrator #Comedy #Horror #Tragedy #SupernaturalHorror #RockMusical #PopMusical #PeriodDrama #MonsterHorror #Farce #DarkComedy  @Hoopla  @PrimeVideo  #FridayFamilyFilmNightOpening intro music: GOAT by Wayne Jones, courtesy of YouTube Audio Library

It's good movie week, and after suffering through Little Fockers, we figured we'd revisit the OG, which we both remember fondly: 2000's Meet the Parents. It's the perfect comedy of errors that you, as a teenager, could watch with your girlfriend in the company of your boomer parents. It's a solid, PG-13 rom-com that pushes right toward the edge and overall a solid movie. Does Meet the Parents hold up like we hope it does? Tune in to find out! Focker? Family!

The future of Northern California's Potter Valley Project remains uncertain, but the issue is drawing increased attention in Washington, D.C. During a recent episode of the AgNet News Hour, journalist and Potter Valley advocate Keely Covello discussed the latest developments surrounding the proposed removal of Scott Dam and Cape Horn Dam, along with new federal interest in preserving the region's water infrastructure. Covello explained that the Potter Valley Project has supplied water for homes, farms and ranches throughout the Russian River watershed for decades by storing winter runoff from the Eel River for use during the dry summer months. She said the project also provides an important source of water for wildfire suppression in one of California's most fire-prone regions. According to Covello, the latest develop ment is that a Southern California water district has expressed interest in purchasing the dams from PG&E rather than seeing them removed. She said representatives from the Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District recently participated in a meeting hosted by Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum to discuss potential options for preserving the infrastructure. "The federal government is paying attention to this," Covello said. "If there is a group interested in preserving this water infrastructure for 750,000 people, PG&E has a responsibility to take that seriously." Covello noted that PG&E has asked the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) for permission to decommission the hydroelectric project. She hopes federal regulators will carefully consider the impacts on agriculture, rural communities and emergency response before making a decision. She also argued that maintaining the reservoirs is important for wildfire preparedness, pointing out that two of California's largest wildfires originated near Potter Valley and relied on water from the project during firefighting operations. Throughout the interview, Covello emphasized that the debate extends well beyond hydroelectric power. She said the reservoirs provide reliable water deliveries for agriculture, support rural communities and serve as a critical component of the region's emergency infrastructure. Host Nick Papagni and co-host Josh McGill noted that water storage continues to be one of California agriculture's most pressing long-term issues, especially as the state's population grows and demands on existing infrastructure continue to increase. Covello said she remains encouraged that more people are learning about the Potter Valley Project and believes increased public awareness could play an important role as decisions move forward.

Steelers reporter Ray Fittipaldo from the PG joined the show. Where does Ray come down on the QB2 battle as we approach training camp? Ray thinks Mike McCarthy could have Will Howard as prepared as Mason Rudolph entering the season, which would make Rudolph expendable. How much pressure is on Roman Wilson? Ray thinks there will be some on Dylan Cook, who is holding off Max Iheanachor for the starting right tackle spot. What is the future like for Broderick Jones, who may not even be healthy enough to play? The guys got Ray's feeling of the Steelers continuing their training camp at St. Vincent College after all of these years.

Ben Roethlisberger has spoken about the backup QB situation and is in line with Mullsy once again. Ben said it's wiser to hold on to the 2 young guns that you don't know about yet, Will Howard and Drew Allar. Obviously, Aaron Rodgers isn't going anywhere, which leaves Mason Rudolph as the odd man out. Ben said he would cut Mason. Steelers reporter Ray Fittipaldo from the PG joined the show.

PG columnist Noah Hiles joined the show. Noah said the Pirates are probably taking calls on Oneil Cruz just like they took calls on him last year. Noah thinks any move made would be to acquire pitching help. Noah thinks the Pirates have actually accomplished some of the goals set from last season. Noah believes the team would look to move prospects before they look into moving Major League players. Is a Mason Miller trade as simple as it sounds? Noah, like Colin Beazley yesterday, said a Miller trade would likely require a salary dump from the Padres too – making it very difficult for the Pirates to do. Noah said we will find out in 2 weeks if the front office really believes in this team. Will a move be made before the deadline? The guys asked Noah to put a percentage on Pirates/prospects being traded by the deadline in 2 weeks. Noah labeled Wyatt Sanford as the ‘perfect trade chip' in their system. Is an extension on the table for Esmerlyn Valdez after the start he has had? Noah explained why he's not trading Murf Gray.

Dennis Santana caused a stir last night in the loss to the Yankees. In fact, he started a brawl… sort of. It may be the most fight he has shown all season. The Pirates fell 8-5 in the Bronx. Santana had some hilarious quotes after the game, comparing his struggles and apologies to the likes of Barry Bonds and Pedro Martinez. The fallout of the talent cuts at ESPN & NFL Network has ties to Pittsburgh. PG columnist Noah Hiles joined the show.

The Pirates took 2 of 3 over the weekend in Cleveland. Saturday night left a sour taste after the Pirates blew another game, but the response on Sunday may have fixed all of that for people. The Buccos are tied for a playoff spot entering play today. What were the highlights from this series? Poni bragged about his harness race victory on Saturday. Yesterday will be remembered as the Billy Cook game. Which team from the National League is the biggest threat to the Pirates in the wild card race? Pirates reporter Colin Beazley from the PG joined the show. Colin labeled Esmerlyn Valdez as ‘untouchable' ahead of the trade deadline and said he wouldn't part with really anyone on the Major League roster right now. Colin mentioned that a Mason Miller trade would likely include a big-money player from the Padres that they are looking to move in order to free up money. How can the Pirates add to the roster without adding much in terms of payroll? Colin's guess is that Luke Weaver will be the Pirates main target at the trade deadline. Colin thinks the next 2 weeks could be the final days of Dennis Santana in a Pirates uniform.

Everybody's talking about The Odyssey — Christopher Nolan's sweeping epic starring Matt Damon as Odysseus — and Adam Holtz from Plugged In joins Brian From to give the full breakdown. The film generated significant pre-release controversy over casting choices including a Black actress as Helen of Troy and Elliot Page as a warrior, plus concerns about a more progressive interpretation of Homer's source material. But the early numbers tell a different story: 96% from critics and 97% from audiences on Rotten Tomatoes. Adam notes something worth acknowledging: the movie's version of Odysseus is actually more redemptive than the original — a faithful family man trying to get home to his wife and son after 20 years, not the arrogant womanizer of Homer's text. The R rating is the real curveball: the violence is intense but not gory, and Adam traces the rating almost entirely to three F-words — one over the PG-13 threshold — in what he reads as a very deliberate creative decision. His bottom line: know your family's convictions, because this R-rated film is less problematic than a lot of movies that carry that same rating. And teaser: Little House on the Prairie is coming up next week. Full review at pluggedin.com.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Want a sharper read on motivation design? Get the free Core Drives in the Wild guide, real cases decoded through this exact framework, one short email a day: professorgame.com/WildCD Episode Summary Rob argues that Black Hat motivation, the urgency and scarcity most designers treat as the villain, is the on-ramp that gets people to act at all. He breaks down the Octalysis Group's award-winning project with Procter & Gamble's distributor Navo Orbico, which reached 99.5% voluntary participation on a non-compulsory rollout and a 28.6% revenue increase by starting with pressure and handing off to meaning. Drawing on Ocean Hero as the rare frictionless exception, he shows why White Hat drives like Epic Meaning seldom start action on their own. Listeners learn the Black-Hat-to-White-Hat handoff and two diagnostic questions to test whether their own system can make the switch. About the Host Rob Alvarez is Head of Engagement Strategy, Europe at The Octalysis Group (TOG), a leading gamification and behavioral design consultancy. A globally recognized gamification strategist and TEDx speaker, he founded and hosts Professor Game, the #1 gamification podcast, and has interviewed hundreds of global experts. He designs evidence-based engagement systems that drive motivation, loyalty, and results, and teaches LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® and gamification at top institutions including IE Business School, EFMD, and EBS University across Europe, the Americas, and Asia. Key Takeaways The Octalysis Group's project with Procter & Gamble reached 99.5% voluntary participation on a non-compulsory rollout and a 28.6% revenue increase, evidence that Black Hat urgency and White Hat meaning work in sequence, not opposition. In the Octalysis framework, Black Hat and White Hat motivation are not good and evil. Black Hat (urgency, scarcity, pressure) gets people to act now; White Hat (meaning, empowerment) makes them glad they stayed. Relying only on grand meaning and Core Drive 3 (Empowerment of Creativity and Feedback) tends to produce a "someday," which in practice means never, because wanting to act is rarely a strong enough forcing function to overcome friction. The P&G rollout launched using Core Drive 5 (Social Influence and Relatedness) as pressure: getting into the system meant tracking down colleagues for an access code, which sparked FOMO (Core Drive 8) and curiosity (Core Drive 7) rather than belief in a grand vision. After the on-ramp, the system handed off to White Hat: reps became captains of trading ships, territories became open seas, and clients became colonies, activating Core Drive 1 (Epic Meaning) and Core Drive 2 (Development and Accomplishment). Ocean Hero is the rare case where White Hat alone starts action, because switching a search engine is one click of near-zero friction, so Core Drive 1 can carry the behavior with no urgency at all.
