Podcasts about Pool

A drained pool looks harmless until you realize it can become a boat. We're talking about pool pop-ups, the real-world risk behind the phrase “the pool can pop out of the ground,” and the simple physics that make it possible when groundwater rises under an empty shell.We walk through what actually holds an inground plaster or concrete pool in place, including the massive weight of thousands of gallons of water, and what changes the moment you drain it for an acid wash or to lower high cyanuric acid. Then we get practical: how heavy rain, wet seasons, saturated clay soil, and even where you discharge water can raise the odds. If you're servicing pools in higher-rain regions like parts of Florida or Louisiana, we also talk about hydrostatic plugs, what they're designed to do, and the tradeoffs you should know.Fiberglass and vinyl liner pools get their own warning label. Fiberglass shells are light enough that pop-up risk is much more real, and draining can also lead to wall bowing, cracking, or collapse. Vinyl liner pools can turn into an expensive disaster if the liner pulls out and tears, especially as the material loses elasticity over time. We explain safer partial-drain thinking and why calling the right specialty company can save your customer's pool and save your liability.If you found this helpful, subscribe so you don't miss the next one, share it with a pool pro who's been debating a drain, and leave a review so more people can find the show.We break down what “pool pop-up” really means, why it happens, and why it's far less common than the horror stories suggest for most concrete pools. We also lay out the big red flags when draining fiberglass and vinyl liner pools, plus how weather, groundwater, and soil type should guide every drain decision.  • how groundwater and buoyancy can lift an empty pool shell  • why heavy rain and clay soil increase pop-up risk  • practical timing rules for safer pool draining and refills  • why fiberglass pools are higher risk when drained  • how hydrostatic plugs work and when they matter  • why vinyl liner pools can tear when fully drained  • when to call a fiberglass installer or vinyl liner company  Learn more at swimmingpoollearning.com.  If you're interested in the coaching program, you can learn more at poolguycoaching.com.Send us Fan MailSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Talking Pools Podcast, host Natalie Hood sits down with Mike Collins, President of Tenjam, to uncover the often-overlooked realities of in-pool furniture. While most homeowners shop based on appearance and price, Mike explains why comfort, engineering, maintenance requirements, water depth compatibility, and long-term performance matter far more once the furniture is actually sitting in the pool. From ergonomics and furniture design to pool covers, vinyl liners, fiberglass pools, and maintenance concerns, this episode challenges many of the assumptions surrounding today's popular tanning ledges and sun shelves. Topics Covered in This EpisodeWhy Two Pool Loungers That Look Identical Can Perform Completely DifferentlyMike explains how ergonomics, contouring, lumbar support, water management systems, and manufacturing quality dramatically impact comfort and usability. What looks great in a photo may become uncomfortable or frustrating after only a few uses. The Hidden Problem with Water-Filled FurnitureMany in-pool furniture designs rely on trapped water for weight and stability. Mike discusses how some loungers can weigh more than 160 to 260 pounds when filled, creating challenges for homeowners, pool service professionals, and anyone using automatic pool covers. Pool Covers and Furniture: Friend or Foe?The conversation explores why many service professionals dislike heavy in-pool furniture and how furniture design can determine whether opening and closing an automatic cover becomes a simple task or a major inconvenience. Does Heavy Furniture Really Mean Better Furniture?One of the industry's biggest misconceptions is that heavier furniture automatically equals greater stability. Mike explains the science of buoyancy, water displacement, and how thoughtful engineering can create stable furniture without excessive weight. Comfort Matters More Than Most People RealizeNot all in-pool furniture is designed with actual human comfort in mind. The discussion examines common design flaws and how proper ergonomics can dramatically improve the user experience for adults, children, and multi-generational families. The Maintenance Nobody Talks AboutFurniture left in pools year-round faces constant exposure to UV light, calcium scaling, scum lines, algae growth, and other environmental challenges. Mike explains what homeowners should know before purchasing furniture and why drainage design matters. Vinyl Liner and Fiberglass Pool ConsiderationsMany pool owners have heard that luxury in-pool furniture isn't compatible with vinyl liner or fiberglass pools. Mike separates fact from fiction and discusses how furniture weight, movement, and construction can affect pool surfaces over time. Why Water Depth Should Be Part of Every Furniture ConversationOne of the most overlooked aspects of pool design is matching furniture to tanning ledge depth. The episode explores how different water depths create completely different user experiences and why builders should discuss furniture plans with homeowners before construction begins. Pool Furniture Is More Than DecorationToday's in-pool furniture is no longer simply a visual accessory. The right furniture can influence how homeowners use their pools, interact with guests, enjoy tanning ledges, and maximize their outdoor living spaces. Key Takeaways Comfort should be evaluated, not assumed.  Furniture weight does not automatically equal quality.  Pool covers and furniture compatibility matter.  Maintenance requirements vary significantly between brands.  Vinyl liner and fiberglass pools require careful furniture selection.  Water depth should influence furniture decisions before a pool is built.  Proper engineering often matters more than appearance alone.  The cheapest option may become the most expensive over time. Memorable Quote"What looks similar online can perform very differently once it's in the water, and understanding the engineering behind the product can make all the difference in long-term satisfaction." Connect with the GuestLearn more about Mike Collins and TenJam's innovative approach to in-pool furniture design, ergonomics, and outdoor living solutions by visiting their website and social media channels.  Revdup Apparel a custom apparel company built for the pool industry.

If your pool skimmer feels “lazy” and the surface never quite looks clean, the problem usually isn't the leaves, it's the setup. I walk through the most common skimmer performance issues I see in the field and the practical fixes that get debris moving in the right direction again. We even touch on infinity edge pools, where skimmers sometimes get skipped for aesthetics, and why I still think a skimmer plays a vital role in everyday pool care.We start with circulation basics you can actually control: return jet direction, surface flow patterns, and the dead spots that let debris hover until it gets soaked and sinks. Then we go straight to the big lever for stronger skimmer suction: flow through the filtration system. A dirty filter can quietly kill skimmer pull, while a properly sized, clean cartridge filter, DE filter, or sand filter can make the skimmer come alive. I also cover the weir gate and other skimmer hardware that people don't notice until it's missing, stuck, or letting debris slip right back into the pool when the pump shuts off.From there, we get into the tradeoffs that frustrate a lot of pool owners and pool pros: suction-side cleaners connected at the skimmer, side ports that still steal suction, and variable speed pumps running too low to skim well. I share options to supplement surface cleaning, including solar-powered surface skimmers and the PoolSkim return-jet attachment, plus the small tweaks that make them work better in real pools. If you want a cleaner surface all week, hit play, then subscribe, share the episode with a pool owner, and leave a review with the skimmer problem you want solved next.We break down why your pool skimmer stops grabbing debris and how small system issues can make a clean pool look messy fast. We walk through the real-world fixes that boost surface skimming, from flow and filtration to weir gates and cleaner setups.• why skimmers matter for surface debris before it sinks• return jet direction to reduce dead spots and push debris• filter cleanliness and filter upgrades to restore flow• weir gate function and brand-specific missing skimmer parts• how suction cleaners and low pump speeds reduce skimming power• add-ons that help, including solar surface cleaners and PoolSkim• why two skimmers often do not improve performanceLearn more at swimmingpoollearning.com.If you're interested in the coaching program that I offer, you can learn more at PoolGuyCoaching.com.Send us Fan MailSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

Today's Headlines: Trump's 80th birthday UFC fight at the White House went ahead as planned, sponsored by Meta, Polymarket, Bud Light, and Monster Energy, with fighters' bonuses paid in Trump crypto instead of actual dollars, weigh-ins at the Lincoln Memorial, and a crowd of million-dollar VIP ticket holders plus military members pre-screened for waist-to-height ratio — just as the Founders intended. The $14 million reflecting pool renovation, completed mere days ago, is already growing green algae because the color choice is algae growth friendly, which is a perfect metaphor. The Kennedy Center name removal deadline came and went with maximum drama — the Trump administration filed last-minute court motions to stop it, millions watched a live stream of construction workers put up a giant tarp, though the tarp remains up for unclear reasons. On the war beat, The US and Iran reportedly agreed on a peace deal, with a formal signing scheduled for Friday in Switzerland — terms not fully disclosed because the administration was busy with the birthday cage match — but the Navy blockade will end and the Strait of Hormuz will open toll-free when signed, kicking off 60 days of nuclear negotiations. The deal was briefly delayed by Israel launching strikes on Beirut, prompting Trump to tell Axios "Why did Bibi have to do a f---ing attack? I was so pissed off. He has no f---ing judgement" — which is a remarkable thing to say about your closest ally on your birthday. On the erosion of free press, the DOJ approved Paramount's $110 billion acquisition of Warner Brothers Discovery, with Bari Weiss reportedly set to oversee CNN as well as CBS News after the deal closes, because apparently the documented viewership collapse at CBS wasn't enough of a red flag. And finally, Argentina's Javier Milei submitted legislation to create a legal category for "non-human corporations" — essentially corporate personhood for AI systems — as part of his plan to make Argentina the Silicon Valley of unregulated AI, which Peter Thiel is presumably thrilled about.

06/15 Hour 3: The Brandon Aiyuk Saga Takes Another Turn - 1:00 Famous Musician Dies In A Helicopter Crash - 21:00 Update On The Junkies World Cup Pool - 32:00

From 06/15 Hour 3: The Sports Junkies give an update on their World Cup pool.

President Trump's newly renovated Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool is green again. Algae has taken over after taxpayers spent $14 million on upgrades. The National Park Service says leftover algae hiding in the pipes is to blame. Maybe. But when Trump is involved, it's fair to ask questions. Could anti-Trump bureaucrats inside the system have ignored the problem knowing full well it would embarrass the President and tarnish a project carrying his name? Or maybe leftist saboteurs contaminated the pool with algae. The mainstream media went into full meltdown mode after I simply asked the questions. Their reaction tells you everything. Today, we break down the media's obsession with protecting the bureaucracy while attacking anyone who dares question the official narrative. Plus, UFC 250 at the White House and President Trump's announcement of an agreement with Iran has the left in another fit of rage. It doesn't matter whether it's sports, diplomacy, economic wins, or restoring American pride. If Trump is involved, Democrats and their media allies oppose it on emotional irrationality. Their hatred of Trump has become stronger than their love of country.

Filter problems love to disguise themselves as “chemistry issues” and that's exactly how pool owners waste weekends and pool pros lose hours. We walk through the real decision that matters: do you simply need new filter media, or is it time to replace the whole filter body because the tank, clamp, or lid is worn out and headed toward failure.We start with the basics in plain language: what “filter media” means for cartridge, DE, and sand systems, and why each has a different lifespan. Then we get practical with sand filters, including the signs that sand is no longer doing its job (weekly backwashing, rising pressure, poor flow, and water that never quite looks right). If you're debating a pool filter upgrade, we talk through when a cartridge filter makes sense, when a sand filter is still the better choice in heavy dirt regions, and why large square-foot cartridge filters can deliver better circulation and more consistent filtration.We also share the real-world replacement schedule that keeps service routes smooth: the three-year strategy for quad cartridges and DE grids, what happens when grids tear and DE leaks back into the pool, and the important exceptions where cost and build quality justify longer intervals. Finally, we cover when replacing the entire filter is the smart move, plus what changes when converting from DE to cartridge (including plumbing considerations and removing backwash hardware).If you want fewer surprises, cleaner water, and better flow, subscribe, share this with a pool owner or pool tech, and leave a review with the filter type you're running and the problems you're seeing.We break down how to decide between replacing pool filter media and replacing the entire filter, using real service-route triggers like pressure rise, flow loss, and stubborn water clarity issues. We also lay out practical upgrade paths from sand or DE to cartridge so you can reduce mess, improve circulation, and prevent mid-season failures.  • defining filter media across cartridge, DE and sand systems  • diagnosing sand filter performance using clarity, flow and backwash frequency  • weighing sand filter simplicity against water waste and lower filtration  • why large cartridge filters often outperform sand in everyday use  • setting a proactive replacement schedule for cartridges and DE grids  • spotting grid tears and deciding when to replace one grid vs all  • handling expensive cartridge exceptions and extending lifespan responsibly  • deciding when an aging filter tank should be replaced for safety and cost  • planning plumbing changes when converting DE to cartridge  Are you a pool service pro looking to take your business to the next level?

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Talking Pools Podcast, hosts Lee Salisbury, Shane Sneddon, and Nick discuss one of the most challenging and often frustrating aspects of pool service: leak detection. From simple dye tests and bucket tests to advanced acoustic listening devices, pressure testing, and underground leak locating equipment, the team shares real-world experiences, troubleshooting techniques, and lessons learned from years in the field. Topics CoveredWhy Leak Detection Is a Specialized SkillLeak detection often goes far beyond finding a wet spot in the yard. The hosts discuss how locating leaks requires patience, methodical troubleshooting, experience, and sometimes specialized equipment that represents a significant investment for a service company. Common Leak Sources Every Technician Should Check FirstBefore investing in advanced equipment, technicians can often identify many leaks through basic inspection and process-of-elimination techniques, including: Multiport valve waste lines  Hydrostatic relief valves  Skimmer box cracks  Skimmer faceplates and gaskets  Return fittings  Suction-side plumbing  Equipment pad leaks  Pump lid cracks and air leaks The hosts explain why many leaks can be found without expensive equipment when a systematic approach is used. Dye Testing: Every Technician's Best FriendOne of the most effective and affordable leak detection tools remains simple dye testing. The discussion covers: How dye reveals water movement  Why water table levels can affect results  Choosing the right dye color for different pool finishes  Common mistakes when performing dye tests  Creative field solutions using syringes, plasticine, and simple tools The team also discusses fluorescent dyes and situations where standard dye colors become difficult to see. When the Water Table Changes EverythingHeavy rainfall and high groundwater can completely change leak detection results. Shane shares examples where visible holes in vinyl liners showed no water loss because surrounding groundwater pressure equalized the leak. Understanding groundwater conditions is critical when diagnosing suspected leaks. Vinyl Pool Leak ChallengesThe hosts discuss: Large vinyl liner tears  Aging liner failures  Temporary patching methods  When repairs are no longer practical  Recognizing when liner replacement is the only realistic solution Real-world examples illustrate why some repairs become recurring service calls if underlying liner deterioration is ignored. Fiberglass Pool Failures and Structural IssuesSeveral unusual fiberglass pool failures are discussed, including: Pool walls collapsing due to improper backfill  Hydrostatic valve failures  Pools lifting out of the ground despite being full of water  Drainage design failures around pool shells These stories highlight why understanding soil conditions and groundwater management is just as important as understanding plumbing. Advanced Leak Detection EquipmentShane explains the equipment used by professional leak detection companies, including: Acoustic microphones  Pipe microphones  Pressure testing systems  Underground listening devices  Sonar and sound-based locating systems The discussion includes how these systems work, their limitations, and why training is essential before offering leak detection as a professional service. Is Leak Detection Worth Adding to Your Business?For service companies considering expanding into leak detection, the hosts discuss: Equipment costs  Training requirements  Insurance considerations  Break-even analysis  Market demand  Scheduling and labor requirements They emphasize the importance of understanding profitability before investing heavily in specialized services. Knowing When to Call a SpecialistNot every pool company needs to perform advanced leak detection. The hosts discuss the value of building relationships with trusted specialists and recognizing when a problem exceeds your equipment, experience, or risk tolerance. Real-World Leak StoriesThe episode features several memorable leak investigations, including: A pool that only leaked intermittently  A cracked pump lid causing major system issues  Underground plumbing surprises  Faulty underground repairs  Hidden plumbing modifications discovered during excavation These stories demonstrate why leak detection often feels more like detective work than pool service. Field Tips and TricksThe hosts share practical technician tips, including: Bucket testing procedures  Using plasticine and Blu Tack for temporary line isolation  Why proper expansion plugs matter  Temporary repair products that actually work  The dangers of underground rubber couplers  Repair materials for emergency situations These small tricks can save technicians hours of frustration in the field. Key TakeawaySuccessful leak detection is built on a systematic process of elimination. Start with the obvious, verify assumptions, test methodically, and know your limitations. Whether you're using a simple dye syringe or advanced acoustic equipment, the goal remains the same: gather evidence, eliminate possibilities, and follow the facts until the leak reveals itself. Connect With Talking PoolsHave a topic suggestion or a question you'd like answered on a future episode?

The artists Maggi Hambling and Tacita Dean and Andrew Marr speak to Tom about Hockney's career and innovations.Tom also speaks to art critic Rachel Campbell-Johnston and the art critic and author James Cahill, author of The Beverley Hills Housewife: Hockney's Californian Muse and the World Beyond the Pool, published later this year.The programme also features excerpts from interviews with Hockney.Producer: Eliane Glaser

In "A Miracle for Life's Disabilities" (John 5:1–9), Pastor Brent Snook brings us the third miracle in John's Gospel — Jesus healing a man paralyzed for 38 years at the Pool of Bethesda. Pastor walks us through the man's condition — helpless and hopeless after nearly four decades — Jesus' challenge with the penetrating question "Wilt thou be made whole?" — the command to rise, take up his bed, and walk — and the remarkable cure that transformed not just his body, but his behavior and boldness. 

Well, we are sure you are now aware that Spurs lost in 5. Congratulations to the Knicks team. Perhaps this may have been the best result for our hometown boys, who are now men. This run highlighted things that we possibly wouldn't have seen if we dropped the WCF. Biggest questions for Spurs fans are about Mitch and Fox, so we talk about that. Though Jeff makes a home improvement analogy and manages to stick the landing, sort of.

For the first time as the La Crosse School Board president, Trevor Sprague joins, and we take a look at the developments for a $33 million indoor aquatics center, technology in schools and the continuing plans of the district consolidation process. With the pool, we talk about the city and the district creating a committee to come up with a plan, the survey that received about 3,500 responses and the five public meetings that drew a total of about 86 attendees. Sprague also discusses how the board navigates declining enrollment, the lessons learned from past facility referendums and what state funding challenges mean for local taxpayers. Also, with a new state law requiring a cellphone policy to be implemented by every school district this summer, we see where La Crosse is at, plus how screen time affects students' cognitive development and whether it’s time to ban smartphones entirely during the school day.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Socceroos fever has swept the nation and the team decide – if they could pick any team to win a championship, who would they choose? Hard to go past how insane a Socceroos World Cup would be. Leisel is feeling proud of her reno efforts after having flooring installed, but now she’s not sure if she should push on and do the next job DIY or call in the pro’s. She needs to tile the splashback in her kitchen! Tim the Tiler calls in to support Leisel. He can help her out and get her on the right track! Spida has a confession to make about his behaviour on the weekend. He and Sheree were travelling back from Melbourne and knew they had potato and leek soup in the fridge ready for dinner. They were going to be arriving late and didn’t want to stop to get bread for the soup, so Spida took 6 dinner rolls from the Virgin lounge! It might be the most “old man” crime that has ever happened!

Throughout history, barriers have been put up between African Americans and water. Segregated swimming pools, violence and discrimination against Black folks who try to swim in public pools - all of this was documented in the “POOL” exhibit that was on display at Fairmount Water Works from 2022-2023 and has now been transformed into a mobile exhibit. Racquel Williams sits down with a few of the folks behind the exhibit and a legendary Philadelphia swim coach to discuss the history, as well as how to overcome a fear of water and learn to swim. Then, Shara Dae Howard gets a behind-the-scenes golf cart tour of the FIFA Fan Festival at Lemon Hill, where up to 15,000 people per day are expected to watch the World Cup games from now through July 19.

Everyone loves the freedom of owning a pool service business until the scary questions show up: “What if I fail?” “What if I get sick?” “What about health insurance and retirement?” I walk through the most common negatives people bring up about the pool industry and give you the unfiltered reality, including the parts I can't sugarcoat.We start with the small business failure myth and why it's often less about the industry and more about basics like experience, customer service, and having an actual plan. From there, I challenge the idea that a W-2 job automatically equals security. Layoffs, automation, and AI have changed the game fast, and I explain why hands-on service work like pool cleaning, chemical balancing, and equipment problem-solving is far harder to replace than many “career” office roles.Then we get into the real hurdles: self-employed health insurance costs, what happens if you're injured, and how to think about retirement when you don't have a 401k match or pension. I share practical ways to reduce risk, including building a six-month emergency fund, using monthly service billing to create breathing room, and setting pool service pricing that covers the true cost of running your business. If you're thinking about starting a pool route or scaling your existing route, this is the mindset and strategy check that keeps you from overthinking and underpricing.If this helped, subscribe, share it with a pool pro friend, and leave a review so more service owners can find the show.We name the biggest negatives people say about the pool industry and separate real hurdles from fear-based noise. We also share practical ways to protect yourself with pricing, savings, and long-term planning so pool service stays stable and scalable.  • why the “8 out of 10 businesses fail” stat misses what actually causes failure  • how competence, planning, and customer service change the odds fast  • why “no safety net” applies to most jobs now, including white-collar roles  • why service businesses like pool service are harder to replace with AI  • building a six-month emergency fund to reduce stress and risk  • the real downside of self-employed health insurance and how to price for it  • what to do if you get sick or injured, including scheduling realities with monthly billing  • replacing a pension mindset with consistent investing and scalable income  Learn more at swimmingpoollearning.com.  Join the pool guy coaching program.  you can learn more at poolguycoaching.com.  Send us Fan MailSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

Your neighborhood pool may be short-staffed this summer — and the reason probably isn't what you think. Lauren Clarke sits down with Mark Overmann, Executive Director of the Alliance for International Exchange, to unpack the quiet crisis hitting seasonal businesses from the Jersey Shore to the Ozarks. The J1 Summer Work Travel program has been filling the gap in America's seasonal workforce for more than 50 years — but this summer, a State Department deprioritization order and a 6x slowdown in visa interview processing times have left up to 19,000 vetted, job-ready students stranded without an interview slot. Mark explains how a cultural exchange program became the backbone of seasonal staffing, why this is a policy and a capacity problem at the same time, what a bipartisan group of House members is doing about it, and what needs to change before summer 2027. Plus, Rob Taylor with the immigration news: Federal Court Kills Trump's $100K H-1B Fee, a new proposed rule raising the bar on EAD eligibility, and updated USCIS guidance on adjustment of status for dual-intent visa holders.

In this episode of As the Drum Turns, Jeff & Lora discuss what it means for us to be a company built on Christian values and how relentless consistency builds champions.

AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports celebrated artist David Hockney has died at the age of 88.

In this episode, we're joined by Doug Burghum, the Secretary of the Interior and former Governor of North Dakota. From his humble beginnings as a young man from a small town in North Dakota to building a successful software company that was acquired by Microsoft, Doug's journey is a testament to the power of risk-taking and innovation. As Secretary of the Interior, Doug is responsible for managing the nation's public lands, natural resources, and cultural heritage. He shares his insights on the importance of balancing recreational activities like rock climbing with the need to protect wildlife habitats. He also discusses the new climbing rules announced by the Department of Interior, which aim to strike a balance between these competing interests. Doug's conversation with Ross also delves into his experiences as a successful entrepreneur and his transition to public service. He talks about the importance of taking calculated risks and making tough decisions, citing his own story of mortgaging his family's farm to start his software company. He also highlights the need for a more balanced approach to energy production, citing the example of Colorado, which is missing out on revenue and economic opportunities due to its anti-energy policies. In this episode, you'll hear Doug's unique perspective on the intersection of energy policy, economic development, and public lands management. He shares his insights on how states like Colorado can benefit from a more balanced approach to energy production and how this can drive economic growth and innovation. Join us as we explore these important topics and more with Secretary Doug Burghum.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fusion has been “ten years away” for decades — but one corner of the field just crossed a line that changes the conversation. In December 2022, Lawrence Livermore National Lab's National Ignition Facility achieved ignition: a self-sustaining fusion reaction that produced net energy. And they've repeated it.So what happens when you take the only fusion approach that's proven to work, and focus less on new physics… and more on building the industrial supply chain to do it again and again, cheaply and reliably? You get a field trip!In part one of a two-part field trip to Livermore, California, Molly visits Inertia Energy's “House of Fusion” to meet two of the company's co-founders:Jeff Lawson (yes, that Jeff Lawson — founder of Twilio and majority owner of The Onion) on the business case for commercializing ignition, and why Inertia thinks the economics are finally ready.Mike Dunn, former Lawrence Livermore power-plant designer and Stanford professor, on what it takes to turn a lab breakthrough into a power plant — from a gigawatt-scale “engine” that can follow renewables on the grid, to building a million precision fuel targets a day.We talk about:What “ignition” actually means — and why it's different from “fusion someday”Why Inertia is starting with the only physics regime that's been proven to produce net fusion energyThe two big bottlenecks: high-power diode lasers and mass-manufactured fusion targetsHow scaling semiconductor manufacturing could drive laser costs down (and why “1,000x” matters)What a fusion target is: a tiny fuel capsule inside a miniature “oven” (and why lead beats gold for economics)Why a fusion plant looks more like a high-RPM engine than a one-off experiment — and how that changes everythingPotential early markets beyond electricity: high-temperature process heat for steel, cement, and fertilizerWhat it looks like to build a fusion company in Silicon Valley: Apple/Waymo-style process engineers, high-end metrology, and a Nerf gun used as a stand-in for high-speed target trackingThunderdome.

Send us Fan MailThis week on the Talking Pools Podcast, Wayne Ivusich and Steve Sherwood take listeners on a journey through some of the strangest, funniest, and most unforgettable experiences pool professionals encounter in the field. What begins as a discussion about a pool overrun with frogs quickly evolves into a collection of stories that highlight the reality of working around water every day. Wayne and Steve invite listeners to share the weirdest things they have ever discovered in skimmer baskets and pool systems, leading to stories involving snakes, squirrels, possums, underwear, rodents nesting beneath winter covers, and even a horse that found its way through a safety cover and into a swimming pool. The conversation is both humorous and educational, reminding listeners that no two days in the pool industry are ever the same. The episode then shifts to a more serious discussion about water clarity and swimmer safety. Wayne recounts a tragic real-world drowning incident in a cloudy public pool, emphasizing why clear water is not simply an aesthetic goal but a critical life-safety requirement. The hosts discuss why operators should never compromise visibility standards and why maintaining proper filtration and water chemistry remains one of the most important responsibilities in aquatic operations. Steve also addresses the growing trend of misleading social media pool "miracle fixes" and viral videos that promise instant water recovery through tablets or additives. The hosts explain why proper pool chemistry does not work that way and encourage listeners to be skeptical of products that appear too good to be true. In this week's insurance segment, Steve is joined by Pat from California Pool Association Insurance Services to continue their discussion about a unique consulting project involving pools at a doggy daycare facility. The conversation explores liability concerns, insurance requirements, hold-harmless agreements, commercial pool responsibilities, and the challenges of maintaining aquatic facilities that are operated by people whose primary focus is animal care rather than water management. The discussion provides valuable insight for service companies considering unusual or high-liability clients. The second half of the episode dives deep into robotic pool cleaners, filtration systems, and service efficiency. Steve explains why robotic cleaners have become essential tools for modern pool professionals, discusses the pros and cons of suction-side, pressure-side, corded, and cordless cleaners, and shares how automation can dramatically improve service quality while reducing labor hours. The hosts also discuss customer expectations, communication, and the importance of establishing clear responsibilities between pool professionals and facility operators. Finally, Wayne and Steve discuss professional education, the value of Certified Pool Operator (CPO) training, and opportunities for experienced professionals to become CPO instructors themselves. The conversation highlights how education improves safety, builds confidence, creates additional revenue opportunities, and helps elevate professionalism throughout the industry. Topics Covered Weirdest things ever found in skimmer baskets  Wildlife encounters in swimming pools  Pool safety and water clarity  Real-world drowning prevention lessons  Social media pool chemistry myths  Doggy daycare pool liability concerns  Insurance and hold-harmless agreements  Commercial pool management challenges  Robotic pool cleaners and automation  Sand filters vs. cartridge filters  Customer expectations and communication  CPO certification and instructor training  Building a stronger pool service business Connect With Talking Pools

Marina and Jemma dive into Trump's increasingly chaotic behaviour, the World Cup visa fiasco, and the extraordinary protests sweeping Albania, where thousands are taking on billionaire land grabs in what protesters are calling the Flamingo Revolution. Meanwhile, Trump is sleeping through basketball games, storming out of interviews and comparing the size of his beloved reflecting pool to skyscrapers. Along the way, there's a brilliant masterclass in debating misogyny from Dean Withers, a reminder that billionaires still wanting more might be one of humanity's great unsolved mysteries, and a pudding courtesy of the late, great Steve Irwin that restores a little faith in what real strength looks like.From vanity projects and billionaire entitlement to people finally pushing back, this week's Trawl asks a simple question: why are we letting these people have everything?Get your tickets for The Trawl Live from https://thetrawl.tix.to/ticketsThank you for sharing and please do follow us @MarinaPurkiss @jemmaforte @TheTrawlPodcast Patreonhttps://patreon.com/TheTrawlPodcast Youtubehttps://www.youtube.com/@TheTrawl Twitterhttps://twitter.com/TheTrawlPodcastIf you've even mildly enjoyed The Trawl, you'll love the unfiltered, no-holds-barred extras from Jemma & Marina over on Patreon, including:• Exclusive episodes of The Trawl Goss – where Jemma and Marina spill backstage gossip, dive into their personal lives, and often forget the mic is on• Early access to The Trawl Meets…• Glorious ad-free episodesPlus, there's a bell-free community of over 3,300 legends sparking brilliant chat.And it's your way to support the pod which the ladies pour their hearts, souls (and occasional anxiety) into.

The Industry Relations Podcast is now available on your favorite podcast player! Overview Rob and Greg recap their time at the Signal conference before diving into one of the biggest debates facing organized real estate: what exactly is the MLS supposed to be? The conversation centers on "Pool," ThousandWatt's thought experiment for a national home exchange that would compensate listing contributors and charge data users. Rob argues the concept reveals a growing belief that the MLS is primarily a data repository, while Greg sees it as a modernized form of cooperation. From there, the discussion expands into the purpose of MLSs, the difference between cooperation and marketing, portal participation, private listing debates, government intervention, and whether the industry is losing sight of its core mission. Key Takeaways Rob discusses his new consulting engagement with Compass and why he believes independent opinions remain critical. Highlights from the Signal conference, including the branding lessons behind Liquid Death and ThousandWatt's "Pool" concept. Rob reveals Pool closely mirrors the Nexus MLS model he previously attempted to build. A debate over whether MLSs are fundamentally data repositories or broker cooperatives. Greg and Rob clash over the relationship between cooperation, compensation, marketing, and listing distribution. Discussion of off-market listings, seller choice, "velvet rope" marketing, and government involvement in real estate policy. Why both hosts believe the industry needs a clearer answer to the question: "What is the MLS?"

Jon Herold comes in Wednesday on a lighter news day and makes the most of the material he has. Trump himself just debunked the June 30 Tulsi decode by announcing Pulte takes over on June 19, and Jon asks the obvious question: do any of the people who built entire posts around that date plan to retract them? Trump also signed the Secure America Act and made live comments claiming the reason Steve Hilton got approved quickly in California while Spencer Pratt got bumped is because he put enough heat on them. Jon reads that as an interesting but incomplete theory about how the fraud system responds to pressure. FISA 702 is expiring this week, Trump is posting that it must pass for World Cup and America 250 safety, and Jon's read is simple: the intelligence community does not need a law to surveil people and will continue doing so regardless. Jon also plays a Tim Pool 2021 clip where Pool calls election fraud talk voter suppression and warns it could get him demonetized on YouTube, then looks at Pool's current viral California fraud posts and has some thoughts about the consistency. The Save America Act hit 50 votes on a Mike Lee amendment with Susan Collins, SpaceX goes public Friday, and LA County voters are allegedly voting to raise their own taxes.

For over 20 years, Betty Collins led troops, mentored communities, and built others up from the inside out. So what happens when the person who is always pouring into others has to finally let others pour into her? Betty Collins is a retired Army master sergeant, cybersecurity professional, and founder of Fit for the King, a faith-based fitness initiative she started in her church over a decade ago. She grew up in the historic Snowden community of South Carolina with a lifelong fear of the water. This year, after being invited by a friend she met at a church retreat, she said yes to something she never imagined she would do a triathlon. What followed was four months of cold January pool sessions, private swim lessons, and a community of women who refused to let her quit. On May 15, at 63 years old, Betty Collins completed her first triathlon at She Tries Ion, swimming eight laps, biking nine miles, and running two more. She crossed that finish line not because she had conquered her fear, but because she discovered she was more capable than she believed. This conversation covers courage, community, faith, and what it looks like to start from the very beginning, again, at any age. Join the Tri Beginner's Luck Community: Enjoyed this episode?

Can archaeology really confirm what the Bible records? In this episode of inContext, Dr. Michael Easley sits down with archaeologist and Dallas Theological Seminary professor Dr. Paul Weaver to discuss his new book, Faith Affirming Findings: 50 Archaeological Discoveries That Validate the Historicity and Reliability of Scripture. From the fallen walls of Jericho to Hezekiah's Tunnel, the Pool of Siloam, Peter's house in Capernaum, and the famous Lachish Reliefs, Dr. Weaver explores some of the most compelling archaeological discoveries connected to the biblical world. Together, they discuss how these findings continue to challenge skepticism and strengthen confidence in the Bible's historical reliability. Whether you're interested in biblical archaeology, apologetics, Israel, or defending your faith, this conversation offers fascinating insights into how archaeology helps illuminate Scripture and its historical context. If you've ever wondered whether the Bible can be trusted, this episode is for you.

(but thanks for that quote anyway). Hosted by Klein, Ally, and a cast of weirdos (both on the team and from their audience), the show is known for its raw, offbeat style, offering a mix of sarcastic banter, candid interviews, and an unfiltered take on everything from culture to the chaos of everyday life. With a loyal, engaged fanbase and an addiction for pushing boundaries, the show delivers the perfect blend of humor and insight, all while keeping things fun, fresh, and sometimes a little bit illegal. 2024 © 2021 Audacy, Inc.
