Lindsay Rios is a Fractional CRO & owner of GTM Done Right, helping B2B companies turn accidental growth into intentional growth. Many of the businesses she works with have built revenue growth through referrals, word of mouth and organic inbound. But eventually those channels stop producing the same results, growth becomes less predictable, and leadership realizes they need a more intentional go-to-market strategy. This is where Lindsay comes in to identify the real causes of stalled growth, whether it's a misaligned ICP, a disconnected revenue strategy or what she famously calls a "poopy pipeline." Lindsay also partners alongside Mandy McEwen, where they help business with their revenue growth by integrating social selling into their GTM strategy.

90 % der Entwickler nutzen bereits KI beim Coden. Aber was passiert eigentlich danach? Wenn wir mit AI deutlich schneller und mehr Code produzieren, müssen Code Reviews, Security Scans, Pipelines, Deployments, Governance und Compliance mit dieser Geschwindigkeit mithalten. Und genau da wird es spannend. In dieser Folge von Devs On Tape sprechen Caro und ich mit André Braun von GitLab, der seit über 35 Jahren in der IT unterwegs ist und heute die Organisation von GitLab in Zentraleuropa verantwortet. Wir starten bei der Frage, was GitLab heute eigentlich noch mit einem klassischen Git-Repository zu tun hat – und landen ziemlich schnell bei einer viel größeren Frage: Wie sieht Softwareentwicklung aus, wenn nicht mehr nur Menschen, sondern ganze Flotten von AI Agents daran beteiligt sind? Wir sprechen darüber, warum AI-generierter Code nur der Anfang ist, weshalb der Kontext einer Entwicklungsplattform für Agents so wertvoll wird und warum Unternehmen ihre bestehenden Prozesse nicht einfach mit KI automatisieren sollten. Denn vielleicht müssen wir Softwareentwicklung nicht nur schneller machen. Vielleicht müssen wir einige unserer Prozesse komplett neu denken.
Seekarten sind die Grundlage dafür, dass Schiffe sicher über die Ozeane fahren können, dass Windräder auf See errichtet, Kabel und Pipelines verlegt werden können. Die zentrale internationale Stelle für Seekarten und die Vermessung der Weltmeere ist die "International Hydrographic Organization" (IHO) mit Sitz im Fürstentum Monaco. Zum Ende seiner Amtszeit spricht der scheidende Generalsekretär Mathias Jonas im Hafenkonzert-Podcast über die Arbeit der Organisation, die weltpolitischen Herausforderungen und seinen eigenen bewegten Weg dorthin.Als 16-Jähriger heuert der gebürtige Rostocker in der DDR auf einem Semicontainerschiff an, erlebt Ostafrika, studiert später an der Seefahrtsschule Warnemünde, promoviert und wechselt kurz nach der Wende an die Fachhochschule Hamburg. 2017 wird er als erster Deutscher zum IHO-Generalsekretär gewählt. Im Gespräch geht es um die Vermessung der Weltmeere (bislang sind erst rund 30 Prozent detailliert erfasst), um GPS-Störungen, autonome Schifffahrt, den Streit um die Namen von Unterwasserformationen zwischen China, Vietnam und Malaysia - und um die Frage, warum die Papierseekarte trotz Digitalisierung nicht ausstirbt.Moderation: Dietrich LehmannAufgenommen wurde das Gespräch mit Mathias Jonas im Bundesamt für Seeschifffahrt und Hydrographie (BSH) in Rostock.Alle Ausgaben des Hamburger Hafenkonzerts gibt es unter ndr.de/hafenkonzert, in der NDR Hamburg-App und bei ARD Sounds.Themen dieser Ausgabe (in Sendereihenfolge)
For fifty years, people across Bristol, England have reported the same impossible sound: a low, relentless drone like a diesel engine idling somewhere in the distance. It gets louder inside their homes, quieter when they step outside, and sometimes only one person in the house can hear it. Factories were blamed. Highways were blamed. Pipelines, the ocean, tinnitus, military transmissions—even 5G. Yet after half a century of investigation, something strange remains: residents have reportedly recorded a real low-frequency signal inside some of the very houses where the Hum is heard. Tonight, we investigate the Bristol Hum... and why shutting off every electrical circuit in the house doesn't necessarily make the sound disappear.

When geopolitical chaos erupts—Iranian tankers in the dark fleet, Houthi attacks in the Red Sea, Russian refineries under fire—oil prices should skyrocket. Yet here we are in August 2024 with WTI crude at just $83 a barrel, and the market hasn't collapsed. Why? Because the U.S. is producing nearly 14 million barrels a day, pipelines are bypassing chokepoints, and refineries are running flat out. But there's a catch. In this episode of the Energy Impact Podcast, Trisha Curtis—CEO of PetroNode, Chief Economist of the American Energy Institute, and Senior Consultant at the U.S. Department of Energy—joins David Blackmon and Stu Turley to break down the real story behind oil markets. They debate whether prices reflect reality, expose the refining capacity crisis that's keeping gas prices high, and challenge the media narratives that get it wrong.From China's strategic stockpiling to Iran's fading leverage to why the oil industry desperately needs better PR, this conversation separates market hype from hard data—and reveals what's really at stake for American energy security.Connect with Trisha Curtis at https://www.linkedin.com/in/trisha-curtis-petronerds/ or @petronerds633 on YouTubeThis is also going out on David Blackmon's podcast, Energy Impacts.Connect with David on his LinkedIn here https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-blackmon-2325189/1. U.S. Oil Production & Global Market DominanceThe hosts emphasize that the U.S. produces nearly 14 million barrels per day, making it the world's largest oil producer. This production level hasn't received adequate attention in media coverage, despite its significant geopolitical and economic implications. The Permian Basin, particularly in Texas and New Mexico, is driving record output growth.2. Oil Market Resilience During Geopolitical DisruptionsDespite major disruptions—including attacks on the Strait of Hormuz, Red Sea blockades by Houthis, and the Ukraine-Russia conflict—the oil market has adapted remarkably well. The hosts credit market forces, refinery efficiency, and alternative supply routes (like the East-West Pipeline) for preventing catastrophic price spikes that many predicted.3. Current Oil Pricing ($83/barrel WTI)The discussion explores why oil prices have remained relatively moderate despite geopolitical chaos. They debate whether prices reflect reality, with consideration for tanker insurance costs, physical delivery premiums, and crack spreads (refinery profit margins).4. Refining Capacity CrisisA critical issue: the U.S. has 128 operating refineries with an average age of 75-80 years, and only one new refinery (Brownsville) is coming online by 2027. California is losing refining capacity (6 of 7 refineries slated to close), which will have serious economic consequences. Refining capacity is the key bottleneck limiting gasoline and diesel price relief.5. Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) & ExportsThe hosts discuss the SPR release strategy and defend continued crude oil and refined product exports as essential to global energy security. They emphasize that allowing exports supports the market and benefits U.S. energy interests.6. China's Energy Strategy & StockpilingChina has significantly reduced oil imports (down 5 million barrels/day) and is drawing on massive strategic reserves. The hosts suggest China is using this period as a "test run" for potential future blockades (like closing the Strait of Malacca during a Taiwan conflict).7. Middle East Geopolitical ComplexityThe discussion covers Iran's leverage (tanker fleet, strait control), OPEC's fragmentation (UAE's departure), Iraq's alignment with Iran, and the role of alternative pipelines reducing dependence on the Strait of Hormuz.8. Turkey, Pakistan & Regional MediationThe hosts highlight emerging geopolitical tensions involving Turkey and Pakistan as mediators, with concerns about extremism funding and the potential for regional escalation.9. Industry Communication & LeadershipThe hosts criticize the oil and gas industry for poor public relations and not taking credit for market stability and affordable energy. They call for better industry leadership and advocacy.This podcast presents a nuanced view of global energy markets, emphasizing market adaptation, U.S. strategic advantages, and the critical importance of refining infrastructure and policy decisions around exports and reserves.Check out the Energy News Beat Substack at https://theenergynewsbeat.substack.com/Check out David Blackmon's Substack at https://blackmon.substack.com/

This week seems to be all pipelines all the time. Alberta and Canada seem close to a deal on a memorandum of understanding about a new pipeline to the west coast. But now how do you make that MOU become a real finalized deal because let's face it, pipelines in Canada are hard to build. James Moore and Gerald Butts talk pipelines and the shift topics to talk jet fighters and the intense lobbying going on for those. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

EWE-Chef Stefan Dohler ist zu Gast bei „Ein Glas mit Lars“ und spricht mit Chefredakteur Lars Reckermann über eines der großen Zukunftsthemen der Region: Wasserstoff. Im Podcast erklärt er, warum Wasserstoff aus seiner Sicht ein wichtiger Baustein der Energiewende ist, warum er fürs Heizen in Privathaushalten wohl eher keine breite Lösung wird und welche Rolle Emden, Industrie, Speicher und Pipelines dabei spielen. Ein Gespräch über große Investitionen, politische Risiken und die Frage, was Verbraucher von Wasserstoff tatsächlich haben.
Louisiana's refineries process vast amounts of domestic crude oil — much of it from the offshore U.S. Gulf — and imported oil from Canada and other countries. The refineries also play a critically important role in supplying refined product to the Southeastern U.S and the Mid-Atlantic states.
Discover how Gulf nations are reshaping the energy supply chain away from Iran. Pipelines, rail and even air transport are under development to lessen dependence on the Strait of Hormuz. Abu Dhabi-based energy analyst Dean Mikkelsen joins Mike with details of the new supply chain. SHOW NOTES: 1:08: How Has Life Changed In Abu Dhabi Since The Iran War Started? 2:41: How Long Will Hormuz Be A Vital Transport Hub For Energy? 4:22: Will The U.S. Take Kharg Island? 5:21: Does Iran Anticipate Gulf Nations Bypassing Hormuz? 7:26: Have The Houthis Opened A New War Front By Attacking The Saudis? 10:40: Is The Red Sea Closed To Shipping? 13:48: How Are Gulf Nations Using More Rail and Air For Transport? 15:23: What New Pipelines Are Under Construction? 18:27: How Will A Nuclear Deal Between The U.S. And Saudi Arabia Impact The Region?
Middle Eastern pipelines would make for an exciting 21st-century updated game of Monopoly or Risk. Pipelines are the currency of the region's latest efforts to rethink energy security and reduce Gulf state and Iraqi dependence on the embattled Strait of Hormuz. Increasing the capacity of existing pipelines and building new ones is no panacea for the immediate crisis, from which Iran will likely emerge as a, if not the key, player in the waterway through which 20 per cent of the world's energy trade flows. Future pipelines are a mid-term goal; they have little impact on current efforts to ensure freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz. Moreover, the prospect of diverting up to 60 percent of the flow of oil and gas away from the Strait of Hormuz could stiffen Iran's position in current negotiations, given that future alternative infrastructure would reduce rather than eliminate its leverage. Add to that the fact that pipelines and other alternative infrastructure do not eradicate risk; they diversify it for some Gulf energy exporters.
Send us Fan MailA thin margin and an empty pipeline both feel like effort problems, so owners respond with more hours. It rarely works. In this episode, Stuart and Mena reframe both as outputs of how a business is designed its pricing, positioning, and channels- not how hard anyone is trying. Working harder on a broken design just scales the problem and burns the founder out.Mena starts with margin, and the distinction most owners never consciously made: are you a price maker or a price taker? In a price-taker industry like mortgage broking, the market sets the ceiling and effort can't move it. She lays out the three layers that shape margin: industry, business model, execution—so you can locate your own constraint.Stuart then reframes reach as an asset you engineer, not marketing you bolt on, introducing the "trust path": why low-risk, frequent purchases convert fast while high-risk, infrequent ones need a long runway of proof. Mena names the two ways reach breaks: expensive reach that drains cash, and fragile reach where one channel carries too much, plus a simple stress test to expose it.The takeaway: redesign the system rather than push through it.

Mike & Tommy tackle the uncomfortable truth about AI-generated data pipelines — how code that looks clean and runs without errors can still deliver confidently wrong results. Drawing from this article, they explore why silent failures in joins, filters, and business rules are harder to catch than broken code, and what Power BI and Fabric teams must do to validate outputs before bad data reaches their reports.Also in the news: Bringing Power BI Insights to Every Copilot User.Get in touch:Send in your questions or topics you want us to discuss by tweeting to @PowerBITips with the hashtag #empMailbag or submit on the PowerBI.tips Podcast Page.Visit PowerBI.tips: https://powerbi.tips/Watch the episodes live every Tuesday and Thursday morning at 730am CST on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/powerbitipsSubscribe on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/230fp78XmHHRXTiYICRLVvSubscribe on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/explicit-measures-podcast/id1568944083Check Out Community Jam: https://jam.powerbi.tipsFollow Mike: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelcarlo/Follow Tommy: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tommypuglia/

Most “AI is changing engineering” content stays at the level of anecdote. This piece tries to go one layer deeper into four specific claims made in the conversation, each of which has concrete operational implications for engineering teams: Cloud native's definition is shifting under AI-assisted development, Code review is becoming a two-stage, agent-then-human pipeline, Model selection is a benchmarking problem, not a leaderboard-reading problem, and, Token spend is emerging as a per-developer budget line that companies don't yet know how to reason about. A closing section covers the SaaS market debate. Krish Palaniappan sits down with Srinivas Chippagiri, a senior technical staff member with 15 years in software engineering, to unpack how AI is reshaping coding, code review, model selection, and the SaaS industry.
Michael Bernstam discusses China's "colonial" economic relationship with Russia, demanding natural gas at heavily subsidized domestic rates. Capitalizing on Russian weakness, Beijing insists Russia fund its own pipelines while China signals a shift toward supporting Ukrainian territorial integrity, effectively throwing Putin "under the bus" to pressure the West.

Demand for natural gas in Northeast and pipeline capacity out of Appalachia are poised to grow in the coming years, but will production follow suit? Even if market conditions improve, it's not a done deal. Today, we look at which producers are best positioned to grow if conditions warrant.
En este episodio te enseño a combinar ImageMagick, Tesseract y Llama 3.2 para crear un pipeline de OCR inteligente en Linux. Olvídate de reescribir capturas de pantalla a mano.¿Cuántas veces te ha pasado que alguien te envía una captura de pantalla con información que necesitas y tienes que copiarla a mano? O peor aún, tienes un PDF escaneado del que no puedes seleccionar texto. Hasta ahora la solución era pasar horas transcribiendo o conformarte con un OCR básico que devuelve texto lleno de errores. En este episodio te muestro cómo construir un pipeline completo que automatiza todo el proceso.Primero capturas la imagen o la recibes, luego la preprocesas con ImageMagick para mejorar el contraste y eliminar ruido, después aplicas Tesseract para el OCR y por último pasas el resultado por un modelo de lenguaje local, Llama 3.2, que corrige los errores y da formato al texto. Todo con herramientas de código abierto, sin enviar tus datos a servidores externos.El script ocr_ai.py que he creado es capaz de detectar automáticamente el tipo de contenido que estás procesando. Si es código fuente, aplica un pipeline de preprocesamiento más agresivo con threshold y sharpen intensivos, y un prompt de IA específico para restaurar la indentación y la sintaxis sin cambiar nombres de variables. Si es una tabla, preserva la estructura de filas y columnas, corrigiendo números mal reconocidos pero sin rellenar celdas vacías. Si es prosa, simplemente corrige acentos, puntuación y caracteres mal interpretados sin alterar el significado del texto.También te explico cómo monitorizar un directorio con inotifywait para que cualquier imagen que caiga en él se procese automáticamente, ideal para combinarlo con carpetas compartidas de Nextcloud o Syncthing y tener OCR automático desde el móvil. Y cómo combinar todo con wl-copy en Wayland o xclip en X11 para tener el texto directamente en el portapapeles con un solo atajo de teclado.Cubrimos Tesseract 5 y su motor LSTM, los modos de segmentación de página (PSM 3, 6, 7 y 11), los diccionarios personalizados con --user-words para dominios específicos, las operaciones de ImageMagick v7 como colorspace gray, normalize, threshold, deskew, sharpen, negate y morphology, y cómo ajustar cada parámetro según el tipo de imagen. Además hablamos de OCRmyPDF para añadir capa de texto a PDFs escaneados y convertir cualquier PDF en un documento seleccionable y buscable.El episodio incluye consejos prácticos para troubleshooting: cómo ajustar el threshold cuando el texto es borroso (valores entre 40% y 65%), cómo reducir el ruido con filtros de morfología, cómo redimensionar imágenes con texto muy pequeño usando -resize 200%, cómo manejar fotos de documentos con -median 3, y cómo crear diccionarios personalizados con --user-words para mejorar el reconocimiento en dominios específicos como facturas, logs o código fuente.Capítulos:0:00 - El problema de las capturas de pantalla2:00 - Motivación: running, Hermes y el pipeline completo4:00 - Captura y preprocesamiento con ImageMagick6:30 - Operaciones clave: normalize, threshold, deskew y sharpen8:30 - Pipelines personalizados según el tipo de imagen10:30 - Tesseract: instalación, modos y diccionarios14:00 - ocr_ai.py: detección automática del contenido18:00 - Corrección con Llama 3.2 y prompts específicos23:00 - Monitorización de directorios y automatización24:30 - Consejos prácticos y cierreMás información y enlaces en las notas del episodio

Liquids pipelines operate quite differently from their gas-pipeline cousins. They are regulated under a different law than gas pipelines, plus they face broader competition. As a result, they enjoy more flexibility in some respects but less in others than gas systems.
Pipeline bullies have become a thing in order to squash questions and debate over the growing concerns about secrecy and just how much Glenfarne will cost taxpayers.

Chris Holman welcomes back Tekea Norwood, Chief Operating Officer of CAMW!, Capital Area Michigan Works!, Lansing, but serving Ingham, Eaton, and Clinton Counties, Michigan. Walk us through how Capital Area Michigan Works! helps an employer build a Registered Apprenticeship program from the ground up? The process involves employers, educators, and workforce partners working together. Why is that collaboration so important to creating a successful talent pipeline? Apprenticeships can be used for both new hires and current employees. How are companies using apprenticeships to retain and upskill existing workers? Employers today are focused on workforce reliability and retention. How do Registered Apprenticeships help companies reduce turnover and build long-term workforce stability? For businesses that may think apprenticeships are too complicated or expensive, what support does Capital Area Michigan Works! provide to make the process manageable and practical? » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Watch MBN's YouTube: www.youtube.com/@MichiganbusinessnetworkMBN » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/ ● Registered Apprenticeships are federally recognized and standardized programs that support the training, productivity, and retention of skilled workers. ● Apprenticeships are a proven win-win training model with benefits for both employers and our region's workforce. For example: ○ Apprenticeships offer a “learn and earn” model, allowing workers to contribute to the day-to-day operations of a company and earn a paycheck while they learn the necessary skills. ○ Apprenticeships lower turnover rates and reduce hiring expenses by developing talent from within. ○ Over 90% of apprentices are still employed with a company one-year after completing their apprenticeship. ● While many people are familiar with apprenticeships in the construction and manufacturing sectors, almost any occupation is a good fit for apprenticeships, including IT, accounting, childcare, and customer service. About Race to Talent: ● Race to Talent is for employers who want to grow, retain, and develop talent through registered apprenticeship programs. ● It is an outreach effort in partnership with the Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity to increase the number of employers offering registered apprenticeship programs. ● During the event today, employers will hear from regional companies that have built successful apprenticeship programs in healthcare, manufacturing, HR, and more! How CAMW! Supports Employers: ● Capital Area Michigan Works! can help employers create a custom registered apprenticeship program for their company's goals. ● We work directly with employers to ideate training opportunities and walk them through program requirements to build the best apprenticeship program for their team. Get Involved: ● Employers interested in starting an apprenticeship program should contact CAMW!'s apprenticeship team at apprenticeship@camw.net. ### ABOUT CAMW!

Open seasons are a key part of marketing capacity for gas pipeline and storage projects, but they can also raise several regulatory questions. And the answers depend on what kind of open season it is. Today, we take a deep dive into the ins and outs of a gas project open season.
On episode 13 of Data Renegades, CL Kao sits down with Josh Wills to explore how AI agents are reshaping software engineering, data science, and data infrastructure. They discuss verification, benchmarking, pre-training data pipelines, multimodal AI, and why understanding a problem may matter more than writing code. Josh also shares lessons learned from decades of building large-scale data systems and his journey from management back to hands-on engineering.
Spouting Off with Karen Kataline Borders, Western Memory, Medicine, and the Green Energy Fight in a Post–Alan Nathan Era Guests, Mark Krikorian, James Hankins, Dr. Toby Watson and Steve Goreham Carrying Forward the Alan Nathan Tradition In this episode of Spouting Off, host Karen Kataline continues what she describes as a new era for The Alan Nathan Show and the Alan Nathan All-Stars following Alan Nathan's untimely passing. She explains that the show will continue in his memory and honor, with her likely continuing to host many Monday editions. The program includes a mix of political commentary, interviews, tribute references, sponsor segments, and closing reflections on the Main Street Radio Network's transition after Alan Nathan's death. Mark Krikorian on Immigration, Libertarianism, and Sanctuary Policies Karen's first major guest is Mark Krikorian, executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies. They discuss immigration policy, libertarian support for open immigration, and the conflict between open borders and a welfare state. Krikorian argues that libertarians once aligned more often with conservatives on taxes, regulation, and government size, but now often align with the left on issues of sovereignty, borders, and immigration. Karen presses the question of whether open immigration can coexist with government benefits and public services. Chicago, Illinois, and Immigration Enforcement The conversation then focuses on Chicago, Cook County, and Illinois as sanctuary jurisdictions. Krikorian says local law enforcement is prevented from cooperating with immigration enforcement, even when people arrested for local crimes are found to be deportable. He says ICE primarily wants local authorities to hold such individuals long enough for federal agents to take custody, but sanctuary policies interfere with that process. Karen and Krikorian also discuss Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, and conflicts involving ICE facilities and federal officers. Karen's Commentary on Communism, Democracy, and the Mayoral Race After the first interview, Karen turns to commentary about an upcoming mayoral race and expresses concern about a candidate she describes as Marxist, communist, or democratic socialist. She argues that communist movements often misrepresent their intentions and that terms such as democracy, republic, socialism, and communism are being confused or misused. Her commentary frames the political moment as one in which the left has embraced ideas she sees as hostile to private property, constitutional government, and individual liberty. James Hankins and the Lost Western Tradition Karen then interviews James Hankins, Harvard University historian and co-author of The Golden Thread: A History of the Western Tradition. Hankins describes the book as an effort to recover the history of Western civilization from the ancient Greeks and Romans through the Middle Ages and into the modern world. He argues that Western civilization has not been adequately taught in schools or universities for decades and says that ignorance of history contributes to political confusion, especially around communism, democracy, and republican government. Harvard, Communism, and Historical Amnesia Karen asks Hankins about teaching at Harvard, which she criticizes as politically hostile to conservative viewpoints. Hankins responds that he does not believe the entire university is corrupt, but says some of the loudest voices tend to come from administrators and graduate students rather than the whole institution. The short interview emphasizes the importance of understanding the past, learning clear definitions, and recognizing that terms like democracy and republic carry meanings rooted in Western history. Dr. Toby Watson on Psychiatric Medication and Violence Another major guest is Dr. Toby Watson, a clinical psychologist from Wisconsin. He describes his background researching psychotropic medications, presenting data to the FDA, working on black-box warning labels for SSRIs, and consulting in forensic cases where medication may be connected to violent or self-destructive behavior. Karen asks whether antidepressants and psychiatric medications can fuel violence, and Watson says that SSRIs are known to increase suicidal thoughts and behavior in some patients, especially through a condition he identifies as akathisia, which involves intense restlessness, agitation, and emotional distress. Politics, Medication, and Social Contagion Karen asks whether the issue may involve more than money and whether political motives could be connected to the suppression of information about medication risks. Watson says he believes political factors are involved and connects the issue to broader claims about family breakdown, poverty, medication use among vulnerable populations, and disability outcomes. Karen also raises gender ideology, social contagion, and the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Watson says he does not have direct knowledge of that case but suggests the profile could fit someone who had used psychiatric medication, while making clear he cannot confirm it. Steve Goreham on Climate Policy and Rising Energy Costs The final interview features Steve Goreham, executive director of the Climate Science Coalition of America and author of Green Breakdown: The Coming Renewable Energy Failure. Karen asks him about rising electricity prices and green-energy mandates. Goreham argues that wind, solar, and other renewable-energy policies are driving costs higher, particularly in blue states. He contrasts states such as California, Maine, New York, Maryland, Massachusetts, and Connecticut with states that still rely more heavily on natural gas or coal, saying the latter have seen lower electricity-price increases. Green Energy, Pipelines, and the AI Power Demand Goreham also discusses the effects of federal policy, the “one big beautiful bill,” pipeline politics, and Donald Trump's opposition to green-energy mandates. He says Trump is using leverage over offshore wind and pipeline approvals, particularly involving New York and New England energy access. The discussion then shifts to artificial intelligence and the rapid growth of data centers, which Goreham says require reliable twenty-four-hour power that cannot be supplied by wind and solar alone. He argues that the AI energy demand may overwhelm net-zero and green-energy policies. A Show in Transition Karen closes the program by emphasizing that the Alan Nathan All-Stars are entering a new chapter while keeping Alan Nathan as their guiding star. Across the episode, she uses interviews and commentary to connect immigration, political ideology, Western civilization, psychiatric medication, climate policy, energy costs, and media narratives. The program remains strongly opinion-driven, with Karen and her guests framing current events through themes of sovereignty, liberty, historical memory, institutional mistrust, and resistance to centralized control.

In the May 2026 edition of the PRmoment Podcast, host Ben Smith sits down with new business maestro Andrew Bloch (AAR, PCB Partners) to dissect a shifting UK communications landscape. The overarching theme of the month highlights a widening divide between agencies riding massive waves of momentum and those experiencing localized, procurement-driven hesitation.Before diving into the market data, Ben shares two critical industry diary dates for your radar:AI in PR Masterclass (July 2nd, 2026): Titled The Age of Algorithms, Predictive Analytics, and Risk, this event is a comprehensive guide to navigating future-facing tech. Secure your virtual or face-to-face London spot at PRmasterclasses.com.The Creative Moment Awards: The absolute final entry deadline is closing fast on Friday, 19th June 2026. Ensure your team's best creative work is in the running by submitting over at creativemomentawards.co.Key Themes1. The procurement squeeze and market polarizationAndrew Bloch defines the current climate as one of "cautious optimism" mixed with macro anxiety. Pipelines are active, but growth is unevenly distributed. Agencies with sharp specialisms—particularly in sports, consumer lifestyle, and social—are thriving, while others face gridlocked client sign-offs. Furthermore, clients are heavily relying on procurement to extract maximum commercial impact, shifting expectations entirely away from traditional "column inches."2. The independent "David vs. Goliath" surgeA massive takeaway from May's pitch cycle is the clear dominance of independent agencies over legacy network holding companies. Clients are progressively prioritizing agile storytelling and pure earned media capabilities over sheer corporate scale.3. M&A Strategy: earned media as strategic platform glueWhile private equity (PE) and trade buyers are exercising strict valuation discipline, high-quality independents remain hot targets. Private equity is increasingly viewing standout consumer PR agencies as anchor platforms to bolt on smaller social, data, and AI-enabled services.Major pitch wins & M&A DealsNotable Wins: Words and Pixels scooped the coveted UK/Ireland brief for tech giant Pinterest, beating out legacy networks. Newly launched Joe Public landed Sneak Energy, and The Romans expanded their sports footprint by securing Oakley's global and North American remit. Other wins included Grayling taking the Croatian National Tourist Board and Hope and Glory onboarding Ask Italian.M&A Highlights: Publicis made a massive $2.2 billion bet on tech infrastructure by acquiring data collaboration platform LiveRamp at a 30% premium. Meanwhile, Havas snapped up Paris-based corporate influence firm Format, and Mike Worldwide acquired workplace communications agency Hudson Lake.Quotes from Andrew BlochOn maintaining agency momentum:"In a market like this where budgets could disappear overnight, momentum is really the closest thing you can get to having security... You can't stand still in this market. Standing still is going backwards."On why private equity is hunting for PR firms:"What's really encouraging for the PR space is they're seeing earned media as actually the glue that ties together lots of different bits of the marketing mix."On the resurgence of pure storytelling:"A lot of agencies have almost forgotten the art of storytelling and the art of earned media... Let's not forget how important earned media is. That's where PR is."
The skilled trades are at a crossroads. By some industry estimates, for every five experienced technicians retiring, only two new ones are entering the field—highlighting a growing HVAC talent gap. At the same time, buildings are becoming more complex, more connected, and more dependent on high-performance mechanical systems. The stakes are real: without a new wave of trained, adaptable technicians, the systems that power hospitals, schools, and data centers are at risk.So how do we close the skills gap while preparing young technicians for a faster, more digital future? And what does it take for a field tech to evolve into a leader who can train the next generation?Welcome to Straight Outta Crumpton. In the latest episode, host Greg Crumpton sits down with Phil Manchester, Service Team Lead at AirTight FaciliTech. Together, they explore the realities of modern HVAC careers—from hands-on technical growth to leadership development and the power of self-education.What you'll learn…The widening HVAC talent gap—and why stronger training pipelines matter: With experienced techs retiring faster than new ones are entering the field, companies must accelerate how they develop and support emerging talent.How social media can boost recruiting and awareness: Sharing real field work and lessons learned can spark interest in the trades and influence the people guiding young career decisions.Why leadership now requires emotional intelligence: Technical skill alone isn't enough—today's team leads must communicate well, manage people effectively, and continue growing personally.Phil Manchester is a Service Team Lead at AirTight FaciliTech in Charlotte, North Carolina, where he has grown from Service Technician to field leader over nearly nine years. A graduate of Hudson Valley Community College's two-year HVAC program, he began his career in facilities maintenance before expanding into commercial HVAC service, developing skills in ultrasonic testing, shaft alignment, and complex mechanical systems. Phil continues to build both his technical expertise and leadership capabilities, focusing on mentoring technicians and strengthening team performance in the field.

Spouting Off with Karen Kataline Immigration, Western Civilization, Psychiatric Drugs, and Green Energy Karen Kataline Continues the Alan Nathan Show in Alan's Memory In this episode of The Alan Nathan Show / Alan Nathan All-Stars, host Karen Kataline opens by acknowledging the untimely passing of Alan Nathan and explaining that the show continues in his memory and honor. She notes that she and Alan had often done Mondays together and says it is an honor to help continue the program during this transitional period for the Main Street Radio Network. Throughout the episode, Karen frames the broadcast as part of a new chapter while preserving the spirit, name, and tradition of the Alan Nathan All-Stars. Immigration, Libertarianism, and Sanctuary Policies Karen's first guest is the executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies, identified in the transcript as Mark Krikorian or a similar spelling. They discuss immigration enforcement, libertarian arguments for open immigration, and the tension between open borders and a welfare state. Mark argues that libertarians once aligned more closely with conservatives on taxes, regulation, and the size of government, but now often align with the left on questions of sovereignty, borders, and immigration. He cites Milton Friedman's argument that open immigration and a welfare state cannot coexist and says that while social programs can be tightened, the welfare state is not simply going away. Chicago, ICE, and Local Non-Cooperation The discussion then turns to Chicago, Cook County, and Illinois, which Mark describes as sanctuary jurisdictions. He explains that ICE is not asking local police to conduct immigration checks in the street, but to hold criminal suspects who are already arrested and fingerprinted if they are deportable, so ICE can take custody. He argues that sanctuary policies release deportable offenders back into communities and says this especially harms immigrant neighborhoods. Karen and Mark also criticize Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, accusing them of interfering with immigration enforcement and downplaying violence in Chicago. Karen Reflects on Alan Nathan and the Show's Transition After the first interview and intervening ad segments, Karen returns to discuss the show's transition after Alan Nathan's death. She encourages listeners to hear the tribute program that aired over the weekend and recalls clips of Alan and his wife Jane from years earlier, describing their on-air chemistry as entertaining, lively, argumentative, and classic talk radio. Karen says it is a sad time for everyone at Main Street Radio Network, but emphasizes that the Alan Nathan Show and Alan Nathan All-Stars tradition will continue. James Hankins on The Golden Thread and Western Civilization Karen then welcomes James Hankins, described as a Harvard University historian and co-author of The Golden Thread: A History of the Western Tradition. Hankins explains that the “golden thread” is a metaphor for the Western tradition, and that the book aims to recover the history of Western civilization from the ancient Greeks and Romans through the Middle Ages and into the modern world. He argues that this history has not been properly taught in schools or universities for decades, leaving people without a shared understanding of democracy, republics, communism, socialism, and the meaning of Western civic life. Communism, Democratic Socialism, and Historical Amnesia Karen connects the discussion to contemporary politics, warning against Marxism, communism, and democratic socialism. Hankins says many people who call themselves democratic socialists do not understand what the term means or how socialism has operated historically. He argues that adding the word “democratic” does not solve the deeper problem, because socialism has not historically favored democracy. Karen and Hankins agree that many public arguments suffer because people no longer share basic definitions or historical knowledge, especially about the distinction between a republic and a democracy. Dr. Toby Watson on Psychiatric Drugs and Violence Later, Karen interviews clinical psychologist Dr. Toby Watson, who says he has worked on research and testimony related to psychiatric medications, including SSRI antidepressants and black-box warning labels. Watson says his work involves outcome research on psychotropic medications and forensic cases where people with no history of violence commit violent or self-destructive acts after taking medication. Karen asks whether antidepressants and psychiatric medications may be contributing to violence, especially in the wake of Columbine-era discussions. Watson answers strongly that SSRIs can increase suicidal thoughts and behavior and says this is acknowledged in FDA black-box warnings. Akathisia, Political Motives, and Youth Medication Dr. Watson discusses akathisia, describing it as an inner agitation or restlessness that can make people feel as though they want to crawl out of their skin. He says it can occur with SSRIs and is even more common with antipsychotics. Karen asks whether suppression of this information may be about more than money, suggesting possible political motives. Watson agrees that politics can be involved and argues that children in poverty, especially those connected to Medicaid or Medicare systems, are disproportionately medicated at higher doses even when diagnosis and symptom severity are considered. He also references Anatomy of an Epidemic and argues that long-term psychiatric drug use can contribute to disability and general decline. Gender Ideology, Violence Profiles, and Dr. Watson's Cautions Karen and Watson also discuss social contagion, gender ideology, and political violence. Karen asks about the murder of Charlie Kirk and whether the alleged killer was on psychiatric medication. Watson says he has no direct knowledge and is not involved in that investigation, cautioning that too much misinformation is circulating to make a firm claim. However, he says the suspect fits a known profile for certain kinds of shooters and that, statistically, it would not surprise him if psychiatric medication were involved. Karen closes the short segment by inviting Watson back and directing listeners to his work online. Steve Goreham / Gorham on Green Energy and Rising Electricity Prices Karen closes the show with Steve Goreham or Steve Gorham, described as executive director of the Climate Science Coalition of America and author of Green Breakdown: The Coming Renewable Energy Failure. The conversation focuses on rising electricity prices, renewable energy policies, and what Karen calls the “green new scam.” Steve argues that expensive electricity increases are concentrated in blue states that have pursued aggressive green policies, naming California, Maine, New York, Maryland, Massachusetts, and Connecticut. He contrasts those with states such as Georgia, Florida, Texas, and Missouri, which he says rely more on natural gas or coal and have seen smaller increases. AI, Data Centers, Pipelines, and Energy Reality Steve argues that green-energy policies are running into the reality of rising electricity demand, especially from artificial intelligence and data centers built by companies such as Meta, Microsoft, and Amazon. He says AI-related electricity demand requires constant 24-hour power and cannot be reliably supported by wind and solar alone. Karen and Steve also discuss the Keystone pipeline, New York pipeline politics, natural gas constraints in New England, offshore wind leverage, and the role of Trump administration energy policy. Steve closes by directing listeners to his book Green Breakdown and website. Closing the New Chapter of the Alan Nathan All-Stars Karen ends the show by saying the Alan Nathan All-Stars are heading into a new chapter, but with Alan Nathan still serving as the program's guiding star. The episode as a whole blends remembrance of Alan with Karen's political and cultural commentary, moving through immigration enforcement, Western civilization, psychiatric drugs, gender ideology, energy policy, and the future of American public debate.

13. Michael Bernstam explains why the Strait of Hormuz blockade has not caused an oil price spike, citing diverted pipelines in Saudi Arabia and the UAE. He notes China's impending shortfall due to the blockade.
For years, growth has been built around a simple idea. Drive traffic into a funnel, move people through stages, convert, repeat. But that model was built for a different time. A time when brands controlled information and buyers followed predictable paths. That is no longer the reality. Today, people explore, pause, research, ask communities, trust creators, and make decisions on their own terms. They don't move in straight lines. They move in networks. That shift is exactly why funnels and pipelines are no longer enough on their own. In this episode, we break down what changed, where traditional models still work, and where they fall short. More importantly, we introduce a new way to think about growth through Conscious Growth Pathways™. Instead of forcing people through linear systems, this approach focuses on building environments, ecosystems, and connections that people naturally move through. It's about awareness, trust, culture, and community driving momentum. We also unpack a six-phase growth cycle that helps identify where your growth is actually breaking and how to fix it, from investigation and initiation to innovation and introspection. If your marketing feels heavy, inconsistent, or stuck, this will reframe how you think about growth and what it actually takes to win today.
