Finding something in your fast food is NEVER fun (outside of a bonus onion ring) and this Popeye's is accused of one of the worst bonuses!

What comes to mind when you think of the phrase “flamed-grilled” burgers, or even to “have it your way”? For over seven decades, Burger King built its identity around its freshly flame-grilled burgers and the iconic Whopper. But behind that familiar bite, is a giant food empire altogether. The brand is part of Restaurant Brands International, a company formed in 2014 following the merger of Burger King and coffee chain Tim Hortons. Today, the Toronto headquartered company owns four of the world’s most prominent fast food chains, namely Burger King, Tim Hortons, Popeyes and Firehouse Subs. It is more notably one of the world’s largest quick service restaurant companies with nearly US$49 billion in annual system-wide sales generated across over 33,000 restaurants in more than 120 countries and territories. Restaurant Brands International is a company to look at not just because of the sheer scale of its operations, but also because of its recent efforts to rejuvenate APAC business in the past three years. In late October 2022, Restaurant Brands International’s subsidiary PLK Apac appointed Fei Siong Group to run the Popeyes fried chicken chain in Singapore after working with Malaysian restaurant operator Revenue Valley for over a decade. The firm also launched the Popeye’s brand in Indonesia and South Korea that same year, and announced a nationwide expansion in China the following year. Then came the year 2023, where its coffee brand Tim Hortons entered the Singapore market, and made a plan to open over 150 outlets in South Korea in five years. But perhaps what’s even more exciting was a move by Restaurant Brands International to buy Burger King China back from Turkish restaurant franchise operator TFI and global private equity firm Cartesian in 2025. Later that year, the company announced a joint venture with Chinese alternative asset manager CPE to reimagine the next phase of growth for Burger King, with the aim to expand the burger chain’s footprint from roughly 1,250 outlets to over 4,000 by 2035. So why is the firm aggressively expanding in Asia right now? On Under the Radar, finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to Daphne Kuah, Chief Commercial Officer, Restaurant Brands International APAC.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We will walk through Matthew 22, where Jesus stripped away religious complexity and gave us the two greatest commandments: Love God with all your heart, soul, and mind.

We sit down with one of Louisville's most recognizable business leaders on this week's Access Louisville podcast. Republic Bank Executive Chairman Steve Trager joins the show to discuss the bank's continued growth, including its presence in five states, a record financial performance and competitive advantages.In an interview wtih LBF Editor-in-Chief Shea Van Hoy, Trager also shares his thoughts on technology in banking, including how Republic is using artificial intelligence internally while maintaining a strong focus on personal relationships. "We have multiple internal [AI] agents that we've developed that can answer questions and help our people serve their customers in various areas," he said. However, he added, "I don't see it customer-facing directly anytime soon.I have my own experience with customer-facing AI, and it's been terrible almost every time I've tried to use it."With that said, he also comments on how he believes bankers should have a personal relationship with their clients We also talk philanthropy and community leadership, with Trager reflecting on the influence of his Jewish faith and why projects such as the Trager MicroForest and other downtown investments are important to Louisville's future.We get off business topics a bit too and Trager gives us recommendations on restaurants and where he likes to take out of town guests. He even shares a fast food guilty pleasure: "You know what? I love Popeyes' fried chicken," he said, noting that he'll sometimes hit the drive thru there if the mood strikes him right.Access Louisville, sponsored by Baird, is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First.

Dave Arnold is back at Rockefeller Center with the crew, and Nastassia kicks things off with a beer can chicken experiment that went spectacularly wrong: green chicken, burning skin, emergency Popeyes, and a last-minute rescue by Daniel Patterson. Dave also reports back from Lima, with thoughts on Peruvian chicken, ceviche, pisco sours, ancient adobe cities, cocktail bars, and the city's formidable traffic. Then it's on to listener questions: getting Flavacol to stick to air-popped popcorn, the limits of long low-temperature brisket cooks, red versus white clam pizza, and more. Plus: undercooked eggplant, broken glass disasters, mushroom versus butterfly popcorn, New Haven clam pies, and the deep-fried-self art project that thankfully never happened. Hosted on Acast.

Is evolution stacked against healthy eating? What policies could increase demand for nutritious food? And does Popeyes count as a cultural icon? This episode originally aired on March 27th, 2022.

Cameron sits down with PJ Accetturo, founder and CEO of Genre.ai, to talk about what happens when generative AI moves beyond experimentation and becomes a real production business.Known online as the "viral AI madman," PJ built his reputation with the Kalshi commercial that aired during the NBA Finals, one of the first AI-generated ads to run on broadcast television at scale. Since then, he has led AI-native campaigns for Nike, LVMH, Qatar Airways, Oracle, Popeyes, Ramp, Google, and more, generating hundreds of millions of views across platforms. Through Genre.ai, he has built one of the most active AI-native production studios working in commercial production today.But instead of focusing on prompts and workflows, this conversation digs into the questions that rarely get asked: pricing, margins, creative constraints, failed campaigns, staffing, and what AI actually means for the economics of production. PJ explains how AI-native productions are structured today, why some projects still work better as traditional shoots, and how agencies, production companies, and filmmakers are adapting as the technology rapidly improves. The discussion also explores the changing relationship between AI and traditional craft, from commercials and VFX workflows to narrative filmmaking, virtual production, performance capture, and the emerging hybrid models being tested across the industry.The conversation also touches on the Wonder Project's hybrid approach to narrative production, blending volume stages, performance capture, and AI-generated wide shots as a model for what ambitious mid-budget storytelling could look like going forward.Perhaps most notably, PJ reflects on how his own thinking has evolved. A year ago he was telling Hollywood it was doomed. Today his message is different: the tools are coming regardless, the talent is there to adapt, and what's ahead may look less like a reckoning and more like a golden age of creativity.For producers, creative directors, and anyone trying to understand where AI fits in the production landscape, this is one of the more grounded and honest conversations on the topic you'll find.The views and opinions expressed by guests on this podcast are solely their own and do not reflect the views of Wrapbook, its employees, or affiliates.ABOUT WRAPBOOKWrapbook is the AI platform for production finance.Built for today's fast-moving production landscape, Wrapbook brings payroll, spend, and accounting into one AI-powered system, giving production teams the tools they need to do more, faster.Built for features, TV, or commercials, Wrapbook helps the industry's biggest production companies stay compliant, track every dollar in real time, and eliminate the paper-chasing that slows everything down.

On this week's Extra Serving, NRN editor in chief Sam Oches and executive editor Alicia Kelso discuss the latest restaurant industry news, including Popeyes' reintroduction of its $6 Big Box, Domino's new Detroit-style pizza, and new data showing that fast food's value perception is slipping. First up is Popeyes, which reintroduced its $6 Big Box as a value offering and rolled out a new promotional campaign around the tagline “THAT Chicken from Popeyes." Popeyes, which experienced a 5.2% drop in same-store sales last quarter, is looking for a way to set itself apart from the rest of the chicken category while also going back to its Cajun roots, and Sam and Alicia talk about the moves and whether they can help the chain reclaim some of the momentum it had gained in 2019 with its iconic Chicken Sandwich launch. They also dive into the broader chicken category competition and how chains are turning to new packaging platforms and value deals to get customers' attention. Next they tackle data from Morning Consult, which shows that QSR brands' value perception is starting to slip after picking up in 2025. Alicia details her reporting on the data, including perspectives from top executives at several chains that are actively retooling their value propositions. Sam and Alicia then explore how value has evolved over the past few years and how American consumers are looking for more holistic value from their favorite restaurant chains. Finally, they wrap things up with a conversation on Domino's and its newest menu item: The Domino, a Detroit-style slice that the pizza chain thinks could be transformative for sales. In fact, Domino's thinks the Domino could become just as popular as other iconic QSR dishes, and the company is offering a free slice to any customer that shows receipt of a McDonald's Big Mac, Burger King Whopper, Taco Bell Crunchwrap Supreme, or select other dishes. Sam and Alicia talk about the Domino, its bold marketing campaign — including a new commercial hyping the dish that toes the line of controversy — and how it fits into pizza trends today.For more on these stories: Popeyes aims to reclaim 'best tasting, best value chicken' title with new campaignWhy fast food's promotional blitz couldn't sustain value perceptionsDomino's is encouraging customers to buy signature items from other brands

What do you actually have to believe to be saved by God? It is one of the most anxious questions a Christian can quietly carry, and Pastor Brian gives one of the clearest answers we have ever heard him offer. The bar is small enough for a child. And a dying criminal on a cross next to Jesus already cleared it.This sermon wraps up an August teaching series at Alliance Church on how to read the Bible well. Pastor Brian's final rule is deceptively simple. Interpret Scripture with the bride of Christ. In other words, do not read your Bible in isolation. The Holy Spirit lives in every believer, and 2,000 years of the church has been listening to him. Church history is not authoritative, but it matters. As Charles Spurgeon put it, it is odd that some Christians who talk so much about what the Holy Spirit reveals to them think so little of what he has revealed to others.The heart of this teaching is a framework you will not forget. Three buckets.Bucket one is what you must believe to be saved. He points to Luke 23 and the thief on the cross. That criminal believed three things. Jesus is King of the afterlife, so God. I deserve death for my sins. And Jesus is the innocent one I am staking my whole eternity on. Jesus told him, today you will be with me in paradise. Whatever fits in bucket one has to be small enough for a child to grasp.Bucket two is core doctrine. Big impact on how you see God, yourself, and others. The Trinity. The person and power of the Holy Spirit. Sanctification. Traditional marriage. Gender. How you gather with other believers. Not required for the moment of salvation, but if a sheep does not know the Shepherd's voice on the things 2,000 years of the church has clearly landed on, at best it is ignorance and at worst it is pride. That is John 10 language.Bucket three is what Paul in Romans 14 calls disputable matters. End times specifics. Certain spiritual gifts debates. Chick fil A versus Popeyes. Important, yes. But not first tier. Paul's rule for these is not to prove you are right or pretend everyone is right. It is to accept the one whose faith is weaker without quarreling, and to aim for harmony and building each other up (Romans 14:17).Pastor Brian closes with a story about a Wesleyan friend who believed drinking alcohol was always sin. Brian disagreed theologically, but pulling that man into his life made his own faith stronger, not weaker.If you have ever felt anxious about salvation, frustrated by Christian infighting, or unsure how to sort the essential from the debatable, this teaching from Pastor Brian will settle a lot of things.

In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, we break down another busy week of earnings, acquisitions, and market news. We start with Jamieson Wellness, which received a takeover offer from Japan’s Kirin Holdings shortly after we highlighted it as one of our stocks to watch. We discuss the deal premium, why smaller Canadian companies continue to attract acquirers, and what this says about valuations in the Canadian small-cap market. We then look at Air Canada selling a 25% stake in Aeroplan to a consortium led by Blackstone and La Caisse, and why the airline is using the deal to strengthen its balance sheet while keeping control of one of its most valuable assets. From there, we discuss the H&R REIT and GO Residential transaction, Wheaton Precious Metals’ strong quarter, GoEasy’s continued challenges in subprime lending, and Canadian Natural Resources’ huge free cash flow quarter as oil prices remain elevated. We also cover Berkshire Hathaway’s latest results, including its cash pile, stock purchases, buybacks, and new Alphabet position, before wrapping up with Restaurant Brands International and what Burger King, Tim Hortons, and Popeyes are saying about the consumer.

Six years of Irritable Dad Syndrome. Hundreds of arguments, questionable observations, fast-food encounters, marital grievances, Kroger incidents, and stories that really didn't need to be told publicly.And now we've gathered the best of Year 6 into one episode.In The Best of Volume 6, revisit Darin's painfully patient attempt to buy two strawberry pies from a Popeyes employee, Mike being interrogated by a stranger at Kroger about his choice of crinkle-cut fries, and the discussion that somehow turns the entire cereal aisle into a spectrum ranging from sexual repression to Fruity Pebbles. You'll also hear Darin seek Mike's expert marriage counseling after Libby wears his good David Letterman hat outside, Mike explain why his wife was absolutely NOT allowed to remove a sticker from his pristine U2 concert program, and Darin's Thanksgiving encounter with a Tennessee state trooper who simply wanted him to “do better.” And then there's “Just put that anywhere”—a stupid little phrase that escaped the podcast, infected their wives and children, and will someday follow Mike and Darin all the way into the nursing home.If you're a longtime listener, these are some of the moments that made Year 6 special. If you're new to Irritable Dad Syndrome, this is probably the worst possible introduction to Mike and Darin.Which makes it the perfect place to start.Episode 321: Just Put That Anywhere — The Best of Volume 6.#IrritableDadSyndrome #ComedyPodcast #FunnyPodcast #BestOf #GreatestHits #DadHumor #Comedy #PodcastComedy #FunnyStories #MarriageHumor #DadLifeSupport the showThank you so much for listening to this episode!  If you like what we do, please check out our other content!

On this week's Extra Serving, NRN editor in chief Sam Oches and executive editor Alicia Kelso discuss the latest restaurant industry news, including Salad and Go closing all of its restaurants and major chains reporting their latest quarterly earnings, from McDonald's and Burger King to Wendy's, Texas Roadhouse, Bloomin' Brands, Dine Brands, Sweetgreen, and more. First up is the news that Salad and Go had closed all 70 or so of its remaining restaurants while simultaneously filing for Ch. 11 bankruptcy protection. The sudden closure comes just a few years after Salad and Go sold to Volt Investment Holdings and aggressively pursued growth with its value-oriented drive-thru salad concept. Sam and Alicia discuss what went wrong for Salad and Go and what it suggests about other emerging chains pursuing growth. Next they tackle a very busy week of restaurants earnings, starting with chains that boasted positive sales. That included Texas Roadhouse and Bloomin' Brands — both of which are proving that consumers are seeking value in the casual steakhouse experience — as well as IHOP, First Watch, Dutch Bros, and El Pollo Loco. Then they shift their focus to chains that had only a so-so quarter, particularly McDonald's and Applebee's. McDonald's quarter especially was out of character — same-store sales only rose by 0.8% — and the company acknowledged that its marketing initiatives were not executed to their expectation. The result led to McDonald's USA president Joe Erlinger stepping down and COO Skye Anderson promoted to the position. Next up, Sam and Alicia dig into the chains that had particularly bad quarters: Popeyes, Portillo's, Papa Johns, Wendy's, and Sweetgreen. Wendy's especially had a brutal quarter, with traffic dropping 12.5%, while Papa Johns continued a streak of negative sales that led to the chain shaking up its marketing leadership. Why are these brands struggling so much? And what should they do to turn things around? Sam and Alicia discuss.They close on a high note: Burger King posted one of its best quarters in years and surpassed Wendy's to become the second-largest burger chain by sales. Sam and Alicia examine what is going right for Burger King and why they think it is the best story of the year so far.

Did you know July 29th is National Chicken Wing Day?The holiday was first proclaimed in 1977 by the mayor of Buffalo, New York, the city widely recognized as the birthplace of the Buffalo wing. Since then, chicken wings have become a staple at everything from game nights and family cookouts to birthday parties and late-night cravings.To celebrate, many popular restaurants are offering special deals on wings, including Wingstop, Applebee's, Dave & Buster's, 7-Eleven, and Popeyes. Whether you like traditional bone-in wings or boneless, it's a great day to enjoy one of America's favorite comfort foods.But here on Cooking With Positivity, I want to take the conversation a step further.Wings bring people together. Think about all the memories we've made over a basket of wings—watching the big game, hanging out with friends, celebrating birthdays, or simply enjoying a meal with family. Sometimes it's not just about the food—it's about the fellowship around the table.So here's today's Host Chat:

Some mornings you wake up expecting a normal daily comedy show.This wasn't one of them.Episode 158 kicks off with a excitement surrounding Rizz's birthday bash at Delmar Hall and Pin-Up Bowl before the crew dives headfirst into bowling, live music, cake, and just enough peer pressure to make sure everybody actually shows up. If you don't...well...Rizz says he'll remember.From there, the show somehow turns into a full-blown investigation into St. Louis restaurants expanding too fast, why barbecue is harder than people think, and whether quality always suffers when your favorite local spot opens too many locations. It's part restaurant review, part therapy session for disappointed brisket lovers.Then things get wonderfully ridiculous.The gang debates America's best fast food restaurants, questions why Del Taco somehow keeps winning national rankings, argues over Taco Bell's drive-thru speed, wonders why Chick-fil-A can be both the friendliest and the slowest, and absolutely unloads on some of the worst drive-thru experiences imaginable. There are passionate opinions about fries, chicken, Crunchwrap Supremes, Popeyes, Zaxby's, Raising Cane's, and just about every chain capable of serving questionable life decisions in under seven minutes.As if that wasn't enough chaos, the crew dives into a nostalgic rabbit hole of foods only your grandparents seem to enjoy. Liver and onions. Sardines. Bologna. Tapioca pudding. Fruitcake. Jell-O molds. Black licorice. Somehow everyone ends up questioning their own taste buds while Scott proudly brings in licorice like it's a treasured family heirloom.And then...Headline Hoosh arrives.This week's winner is a man who decided hopping onto a moving freight train wasn't exciting enough, so he climbed onto the locomotive completely naked and surfed it across Colorado before police finally stopped the train. His explanation? Vodka, cheap beer, and banjo playing. Honestly...we've heard worse resumes.As always, the conversations go completely off the rails, the insults are delivered with love, and somehow every ridiculous tangent becomes funnier than the last.If you're looking for celebrity gossip mixed with weird news, fast food debates, questionable life choices, and the kind of conversations that only happen on a daily comedy show, you've found your people.Thanks for listening to The Rizzuto Show, the daily comedy show proudly broadcasting from St. Louis where every morning somehow gets stranger than the one before.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshowConnect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online →https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Nothing says "good morning" quite like realizing one of your coworkers completely disappeared.This episode of The Rizzuto Show starts with full-on panic when King Scott doesn't show up for work. Is he okay? Did the baby arrive? Is there an emergency? Nope...he just slept through everything. Naturally, this earns him the legendary Clock of Shame and enough roasting to last until the baby's old enough to drive.From there, the chaos only gets better.The crew uncovers a little-known towing loophole that could save you hundreds of dollars if you ever catch your vehicle being hauled away. Is it legitimate? Is it shady? Is bribing a tow truck driver with a burrito technically negotiating? Important questions are asked.Then things get somehow even more ridiculous.A seasoned mountain climber accidentally impales himself with his own hiking pole...and calmly hikes TEN MILES back down the mountain with it still sticking through his body. Somehow that's still not the craziest survival story of the day.A solo sailor spends an entire month drifting across the Pacific after losing his mast, running out of water, and improvising his own survival system while waiting for someone—anyone—to notice him.Meanwhile, TikTok has apparently decided diarrhea is now a weight-loss strategy. Yes, really. The crew discusses the unbelievably stupid "Cyclospora Skinny" trend, contaminated lettuce, food recalls, and why intentionally giving yourself explosive diarrhea may not be the wellness breakthrough influencers think it is.If medical malpractice stories make you cringe...brace yourself. A woman goes in for a routine procedure and somehow wakes up missing the wrong organ entirely. The crew debates how much compensation is actually enough when a doctor's mistake permanently changes your life.Along the way there are conversations about:• hilarious late-to-work disasters• bizarre downtown vandalism• towing scams• rental car nightmares• hiking fails• ocean survival• bad diet trends• weird medical news• and the everyday nonsense that somehow turns into a three-hour comedy therapy session.King Scott kicks things off by earning the legendary Clock of Shame after an alarm clock betrayal (or operator error...depending on who you believe). From there, the chaos only escalates.A New Zealand metal concert turns into one of the most horrifying concert stories imaginable after a mosh pit gets interrupted by an unexpected biological disaster. The gang debates whether anyone could actually miss that smell, why everyone immediately started throwing up, and why this somehow isn't even the first time it's happened at a heavy music show.The crew battles through Jeopardy music trivia, debates classic albums, laughs about DevilSkin vs. Devil's Kin, and somehow turns human biology into comedy.In Crap on Celebrities, there's plenty happening:• Carly Simon reveals her Parkinson's diagnosis.• Brett Michaels recovers from surgery while fans wonder about upcoming tour dates.• Larry the Cable Guy undergoes emergency surgery.• Christopher Nolan explains why he'll never direct a romantic comedy.• Kevin Smith announces a Jay & Silent Bob video game.• Rob Zombie's wife releases her debut single.• Tom Cruise family drama gets another chapter.• Jon Stewart and Pete Davidson reunite for a huge comedy benefit.• Plus celebrity birthdays, weird entertainment news, and all the sarcastic commentary you'd expect from The Rizzuto Show.The gang debates America's best fast food restaurants, questions why Del Taco somehow keeps winning national rankings, argues over Taco Bell's drive-thru speed, wonders why Chick-fil-A can be both the friendliest and the slowest, and absolutely unloads on some of the worst drive-thru experiences imaginable.

This is Get Rich Education.   Keith Weinhold  2:35   Welcome to GRE from Peoria, Illinois to Peoria, Arizona, and across 188 world nations. I'm Keith Weinhold, and you're listening to Get Rich Education. Though we're a show centered on how to build wealth through residential real estate investing, today we're talking mostly about the commercial side with a guest that's more comfortable investing in commercial real estate than he is residential. We'll learn why. He is the star of the new real estate show called the Real Estate Commission that airs on A&E Network. Todd Drowlette, because he was here with us last year shortly before the show debuted, and he had so many interesting things to tell us then. That's why he's back. Now we know that residential real estate is positioned well at surviving the boom in artificial intelligence's influence because everybody still needs a place to live. You can't download a kitchen or living room, and a chatbot can't replace a roof. But some types of commercial real estate are vulnerable to AI. I'm going to ask Todd which types and businesses are the most resilient to survive AI, robots, and Amazon, because there surely are some. He does a good job of making commercial real estate approachable to those that have never invested in it before.   Keith Weinhold  3:59   Contrary to the narrative, he also likes to talk about why office real estate is not dead. Occupying both worlds, I will ask him about office to residential conversions and also get his take on what is happening with commercial loans because apartment investors have been feeling the pain ever since mortgage rates doubled and nearly tripled in 2022. I'll ask about commercial loans blowing up and just how much more of that is expected to happen because the pain is certainly not over there. Let's meet this week's guest. A series on A and E Television and streaming launched last year called The Real Estate Commission, and it's going well enough that it's gearing up for season two. The star of that show is with us today. He was with us last year just before the show debuted, and that's when he shared all kinds of interesting insights with us, like why. A gas station is on a certain side of the road. He's perhaps the most prolific commercial real estate broker in the nation. He's managing director at Titan Commercial Realty Group in New York, closing deals totaling over $2 billion all across commercial real estate sectors. He's represented everyone from local startups to national reits. Hey, welcome back to Get Rich Education, Todd Drowlette.   Todd Drowlette  5:26   Thank you so much for having me back. I appreciate it. It's always great to talk to you.   Keith Weinhold  5:30   Yeah, same. It was so interesting when you were here last year, and I do want to ask you about how it's going with the A and E show later. Most of our listeners own single family rentals or small multifamily, and I think the commercial side, Todd. Frankly, it it intimidates some people. I know I've thought of it that way before. What are some of the misconceptions that the residential side seems to have about the commercial side?   Todd Drowlette  5:56   So a big misconception is that you have to be smart to do it. You certainly do not. A lot of people also think you have to already be a multimillionaire to do it, right? So the same way with residential, there's levels to it. There's levels to commercial real estate. So I say there's pros and cons, right? So in commercial real estate, if you have an office building or a shopping center or a ground lease, you rent to a McDonald's, whatever. You don't get phone calls at two in the morning saying my hot water tank just exploded, my furnace isn't working. So you still get property management calls, but they're typically from you know Monday through Friday, nine to five type of thing, and you don't need millions of dollars. People think you do. It's like you can buy a small two or three tenant office building or a two or three tenant retail shopping center, maybe something has a nail salon, hair salon in it. Depending on the market you're in, that could be a couple $100,000 to buy. If you're in a tertiary town in the United States, if you're in a major metro, it could be a million, 2  million bucks. But the rent is commiserate with what you're paying. So if you can make an 8 or 10% return, a lot of banks will finance startup people as long they're looking in commercial at the quality of the tenant and what the lease is. So you could have no experience, but if you're going to rent to a Hertz rental car, a Starbucks, a McDonald's, even if you personally have like say a 750 credit score, it's decent. It's not a perfect credit score, but you're financeable. They're lending in commercial real estate based on the credit and the length of the leases, not necessarily on your own financials. And a lot of people don't realize that, and they think, "Oh, bank's never going to approve me because I've never done commercial real estate before. Well, nobody's ever done anything until they do it, right? So as long as you start small, banks will lend to people, you know, on smaller things, there's a ton of pros to being in commercial real estate compared to residential. There's less competition. It's easier to repeat deals because once you know one tenant's looking for something, then you can find the next thing they're looking for, and it's a small knit group. You know, if there's 3 million real estate agents in the United States, I would say across the entire country, maybe 10,000 of us are commercial real estate agents.   Keith Weinhold  8:05   Yeah.   Todd Drowlette  8:06   So if you get into commercial, once you get into that network of people with a deal with the tenants and the whatever, you know, if you're in, you're in. If you're out, you're out. That was a very long answer to a very short question.   Keith Weinhold  8:16   Well, some people even have one of the same hangups about residential real estate investing-they think just to buy income property takes an awful lot of money, not realizing you can start with a single-family home of less than 300k or even less than 200k still today and make a small down payment on it. And you know, Todd, I think one thing that refines commercial real estate for some people and piques interest among residential investors is one of the first things that they learn when they're finding out about commercial real estate investing is the triple net lease. Oftentimes, you see that abbreviated NNN out there, and how that can make things somewhat more hands off for that commercial real estate investor. So, can you tell us about triple net leases?   Todd Drowlette  9:00   I sure can. Number one, the funny thing about triple net leases: none of the three things the N's represent start with an N. So your triple nets are literally your real estate taxes, your insurance, and your commonary maintenance. None of which start with an N. Yet it's called N N N.   Keith Weinhold  9:14   It's kind of like reading, writing, and arithmetic. The 3r is what only one of them starts with an R. It's a terrible acronym, but yes.   Todd Drowlette  9:22   Exactly. So there's different types of triple net properties. So essentially, a triple net property, unlike most residential, where you're responsible, you get X amount of rent, and then out of that rent for your income, you're going to subtract out your school tax, your property tax, your property insurance, liability insurance, you know, snow plowing, lawn mowing, all that type of stuff, right? So triple net properties, you have absolute net properties, which is the best thing you can own from a landlord's perspective. Those are things that are called absolute ground leases or an absolute net lease. Typically, you'll see those in like many gas stations. Will be that a lot of McDonald's. Deals are that where essentially you own a piece of property, you buy a piece of property, and you go here. You have X amount of time to put your building up, do construction, get your approvals. You're going to pay me X per month in a ground rent. You build your own building, you own your own building, you're responsible for it, and I just own the dirt. And those are typically 10 to 20 year leases with options. The downside of a triple net ground lease is you can't depreciate anything because it's just ground, right? So you don't get the depreciation you get with other properties, but you have no risk other than the credit of the tenant. So if you're signing a lease with the United States Postal Service and it's the federal government, you know you're getting that. Those will trade typically about one percentage point higher than U.S. Treasuries because there's very, very little risk in it. But there is some risk, so as an investor, you need a little bit better return than the guarantee of a U.S. Treasury.   Todd Drowlette  10:54   Then you have roof and structure triple net properties, where basically, okay, the roof and the structure I'm responsible for as the landlord. Anything inside of that, or you're responsible for, and then the tenants pay the proportionate share of, like I said, the taxes, the snow plowing, whatever. If that's a multi-tenant building, then you run the risk. Oh, tenant moves out as the landlord, you got to pick up that percentage. If if you have a 10,000 foot building and someone's in 2000 feet and they move out, well, now you're responsible for 20% of that tax and CAM and insurance bill until you replace it with a new tenant. But typically, if you're investing in small strip centers, smaller office buildings, which people say office is dead, I've made a fortune in office. Office is not dead. You just have to own the right office in the right place. A lot of downtown offices are dead, where they're moving to the suburbs for drugs and a lot of other issues. But typically, you know, strip centers today, people are buying those for 8% returns to as much as 10, 12% and a lot of times they're vacancy. That's upside you can add into it as well. But again, these are all things that you can get into for a couple $100,000 down, and there's way more room for error than people think there is. As long as you have a professional that's looking at the lease for you before you buy it, you know you just want to make sure the guarantee is on the lease that you have corporate guarantees. But typically, if a bank will finance it, they're also looking at that. But it's not as scary as people think it is, and it's really a strong alternative to investing in single-family homes. Not that I'm knocking single-family homes. There's pros and cons to literally everything you do in life, as you know. 100.   Keith Weinhold  12:28   A triple net lease, where in commercial property the tenant covers three main expenses or nets: property taxes, insurance, and the maintenance and repairs. And in a lot of the situations, like Todd is describing, that really leaves landlords responsible for little more than the mortgage, really increasing the passivity here. And you know, tenants that are willing to shoulder a triple net lease, I don't think of them as taking on those extra costs for nothing. I think about it is in exchange, tenants typically pay lower rent then, and the tenant also gets more control over the property in a triple net arrangement.   Todd Drowlette  13:08   That's a generally safe thing to say, but I hate saying this. I can't believe I'm even saying this, but you know they say location, location, location. So it really depends on the market. The biggest mistake people make to go, oh, I get asked all the time, should I invest in land? I'm like, hell no, raw land. I go when I develop stuff, I have a use for it. Once I get the approvals, then I'll close and buy the land. Land banking stuff and just going and buying land and hoping it goes up in value. I have a number one rule that I always say to people, and it's anytime you can buy $1 for 50 cents, you buy it, but you don't buy property for $1 hoping it goes to $2 because there's no guarantee that that'll happen. In raw land, you know you have a guaranteed. You're paying taxes every year, so just paying taxes on something that's also not returning you anything is a terrible investment, in my opinion. You're speculating. If you want to speculate, just go to the casino, play roulette, pick black or red, and you have roughly a 50-50 shop minus the three greens, but there's a lot easier ways to make money than buying raw land. But shopping centers, triple net properties, there's definitely ways for people to get into that that are much lower risk, and they're not as scary as you'd think. And many banks will finance them.   Keith Weinhold  14:18   Now, if you had to buy one commercial asset today, what would that be? I know that might depend on some factors, but generally, I've got to say, industrial comes to mind for me as one of the hottest commercial real estate asset classes in quite a while.   Todd Drowlette  14:32   So I would pick two strategies. One would be high bay warehouse, whether it's specifically industrial or just warehouse, but things with high ceilings, open floor plans, like you know, a 20,000 foot warehouse, 30,000 feet, something in that range, that a lot of people want that type of use. Warehouse rents have been increasing way faster than office or retail rents have been in the same markets. And as things get more and more automated, you still need to ship stuff. You still need to. Stuff you still need to get things to people's houses, so with the whole AI boom and the crazy things that are happening, I think there's going to be a lot fewer people with jobs sooner than people realize. But I do think the warehouse is a good thing to be invested in, especially if it's on main streets. It could be retail, could be warehouse, could be whatever. The second thing I'll say that's very low risk are any businesses that Amazon can't compete with you for. So, a small strip center that's two or three tenants, that's a hair salon, a nail salon, service type business, retail tenants, because it's a turnover business. So, like nail salons, they're never going to come to your house and do your nails unless you're a billionaire, because they can make more money with people coming to them in back-to-back appointments. So any type of service business tenant that you can have, and typically nail salons, hair salons, they don't usually go out completely. Usually, if they don't want to do it anymore, they'll sell the business to somebody else, and you keep a tenant. From an ownership standpoint, there's very low turnover and having to pay new brokerage fees or do give tenant fit-ups or free rent to like get their business up and running. So I would either go high bay warehouse with loading docks like 18 foot, 20 foot or higher ceilings, open floor plans, overhead doors, 20, 30,000 square feet, or two or three tenant strip malls with high traffic counts, good suburban locations that have service type businesses. Those are your two. Would be very hard to lose as long as you don't overpay when you buy them.   Keith Weinhold  16:25   This is such an interesting thing to say when you think about a resilient business, something that can't easily be disrupted by AI or Amazon, which something like a nail salon would fit into. Tell us about some of those other types that might fit into a small retail center that are resilient that way.   Todd Drowlette  16:45   End caps, so any kind of like a Popeyes, a McDonald's, anything that's drive-through or food. Even you're starting to see, you know, the Tesla robots, and you're seeing more and more of that. However, people will still buy the food. So whether the employees are actually still in there, it's all robots. They still physically need a place that's close and convenient for people to drive to, or even the food delivery apps. Like a lot of the retail restaurants now are telling me 30, 40% of their orders are delivery through like Uber Eats and whatever. But those are great tenants to have because they're still making money, and as the world's changing, they're adapting. And I want tenants that adapt to the changing world. And honestly, they can afford to pay more. This is terrible. But from a strictly landlord perspective, the fewer employees they have, you don't have workers' comp claims, you don't have the insurance, you don't have all those things. The more you can afford to pay rent to landlords. So as the world's changing, those type of retail, small strip centers, end caps, fast food, QSR type food, quick serve retail. Those are definitely things that I would be considering if I was someone getting into this, and they're things that I also own. So I always recommend what I would do myself.   Keith Weinhold  17:55   Right, and with that commercial tenant, if they're serving fast food, yes, it's not like their customer has to physically show up there at that business for that business to thrive.   Todd Drowlette  18:06   And actually, if you have them as a tenant, because of the delivery, like with a drive-through, you're typically only working off one or two miles. But Uber Eats or these other meal services, they're now going out five, six, even seven miles in some places. So that actually means their sales could be higher. And another thing I didn't mention, but now I'm thinking, a lot of restaurant tenants will pay a percentage rent. So actually, as their sales go up, even though there's not more infrastructure, you know, strains from more customers coming in and out of your property, as they're doing the meal delivery, you're actually potentially be getting cut of that as a landlord with percentage rent, which is a thing that doesn't exist in residential real estate, obviously, there's multiple streams of income for triple net properties at times when you have percentage rent that doesn't exist in warehouse, where it's in retail. It doesn't exist in office, doesn't exist in warehouse, doesn't exist in residential. So that can be a nice bonus, and you see that with supermarkets, restaurants, different types of retailers pay percentage run.   Keith Weinhold  19:05   Okay, so in a sense, Todd, we've been talking about going against the flow, if you will, in being in businesses that are resilient toward disruption from AI or Amazon. But while we're talking about industrial real estate, warehouses do come to mind for me soon afterward, I think generations ago maybe industrial had the connotation of a dirty factory. But today, when I think about warehouses, I think about Amazon fulfillment centers or AI data centers. So, what is the business like for investing in those sort of warehouse deals, and how do those deals even get put together for these warehouse types.   Todd Drowlette  19:42   So you have two types. So you have people who do spec building. So there's guys that will go out and say, "Hey, I'm in the warehousing business, and they'll go through. They'll get approvals and they'll say they'll buy 10 acres, 20 acres, 30 acres, and they'll say, "Okay, we're going to." Put I'm making this up. 500,000 square feet of warehouse on this. They'll go get approved, but they basically will put up a spec building of 40,000 50,000 feet, and then they'll lease it. Depending how long it takes them to lease it, then they'll build the next one. Once you kind of have one building up, it's much easier to prelease. If you just have a piece of dirt and say, hey, I'm going to do a warehouse building here. Unless you have a direct in specifically with Amazon, and they're like, hey, we need to be in Skoda, New York, you know, at this exit within 10 miles of that. And it's like anything. Once you do something for someone once, they're working across the whole country. So if you're particularly good in a specific region as developer, they will often say, "Hey, find me a spot here, here, because they're in the business of getting open and running data centers. They don't care if you're making a profit on the real estate, and they're not set up to locally go through the approvals, know the politicians, know the process, that whole thing. So there's opportunities like that. If you don't know anyone from a hole in the wall, if you have a big piece of property and you start with whatever you're comfortable with to spec out a warehouse, 10,000 feet, 5000 feet. See how long it takes. Do you lease that in six months? Does it take three months? Does it take a year? And then you can kind of take some of the profits from that, either refinance, or if you have a construction loan, then build the next one, build the next one, and build the next one. You can kind of build out as the demand comes along.   Keith Weinhold  21:22   You're listening to Get Rich Education. We're talking to the star of the A and E show, the Real Estate Commission, Todd Drowlette. So much when we come back. He's going to update us on what's happening with office to residential conversions, how much higher interest rate pain is still going to surface in some of these deals, and a negotiation tactic or two that you can use for your own residential deals. I'm your host Keith Weinhold. Flock Homes helps you retire from real estate and landlording, whether it's one problem property or your whole portfolio, through a 721 exchange, deferring your capital gains tax and depreciation recapture. It's a strategy long used by the ultra wealthy. Now, mom and pop landlords can 721 the residential real estate request your initial valuation. See if your properties qualify at flockhomes.com/gre. That's flockehomes.com/gre. Let me ask you something: If you've worked hard to build wealth, is your money positioned to actually support your goals? A lot of accredited investors leave capital sitting in cash because it feels safe, but inflation and missed income opportunities can quietly erode its value. Freedom Family Investments offers freedom notes for investors seeking structured income backed by real estate. It's a straightforward approach built on real assets, not speculation. And full disclosure, I'm an investor myself. What I like is that their team walks you through how it all works, so you can decide if it aligns with your portfolio and income goals. Every investment carries risk, and nothing is guaranteed, but with a track record of consistent, on-time investor payouts, they built real credibility.   Todd Drowlette  24:15   Well, I'll tell you about some of the pitfalls, and I'll tell you the huge opportunities. If you have office buildings that are vacant, you know, particularly in downtown municipalities like in Albany, New York, you know, our state capital in New York. Politicians and the government right now are creating a lot of incentives to convert those, where they're putting up grant and giving away millions of dollars to private developers that you don't have to repay. So there's a huge opportunity to have people take on a lot of the risk for you to do it. Some of the pitfalls people get into are you want to pick the right office building to do it for. So you want to a make sure that that office building either has on site parking garages or on site parking because I've seen people try to do it and that. Downtowns where there's no parking, and you can put a lot of money in a building with no parking. And if you're not in New York City, where people are used to, and you're competing against suburban apartments, that's a tough sell. So that's number one. Number two, for whatever reason, people really want in office buildings and downtown settings floor-to-ceiling windows. So you really want to pick office buildings that already have floor-to-ceiling windows because it can be very expensive. If you get over three floors, it can be very expensive to cut out windows and make them larger. And another, this is a huge money potential pitfall if you're not careful. Many municipalities and states have different codes for elevators for residential buildings than they have for office. It makes no sense to me, but office buildings. It has to do with fitting the elevator has to be large enough that you can get a stretcher if someone had a heart attack and needed to be wheeled out. Ah, for some reason, residential buildings require larger elevators, and if your shaft isn't big enough and your car isn't big enough. You could have a million dollars or more of an unexpected expense to either make the shaft bigger. Some buildings you can't even do it.   Keith Weinhold  26:08   Well, but if it was originally set up for-   Todd Drowlette  26:09   It doesn't make any sense either. This is new. If you have an office building that's 30 stories tall, people could have heart attacks in the middle of the day at the office. So how is that any different than if they're at home in an apartment and have a heart attack, so it doesn't make any sense to me why the code is different for the fire code. But in New York State, the fire code is different, and that can be astronomically expensive, or it can literally stop your project dead in the tracks if it just becomes cost prohibitive to do it.   Keith Weinhold  26:34   That's something that I never would have thought about. I generally like to see office to residential conversions revitalizing central business districts in our cities. You know, you talked about the parking before having less need for parking. If people can walk to work and where they work, that increases the walkability of an area. I like so many things about office to residential conversions, despite all the hardships and the pitfalls you have to avoid.   Todd Drowlette  27:01   Oh, they're great. You just want to make sure you're picking the right building. So my point is, if you have five or 10 vacant office buildings, mostly vacant office buildings, just make sure you're choosing the right one. And before you buy it, do your due diligence and go through with contractors and engineers and architects that understand all the codes and say, hey, the other positive thing that saves money in office conversions is most office buildings. If you have an elevator bank, typically have bathrooms directly across from the elevator bank, so water and sewer can be very expensive when you're running apartments. So having central lines going up through usually concrete floors can save you a ton of money in the design and the layout of how you place the units and do it around central bathrooms, but typically larger office buildings will have plumbing and sewer on different parts of the floor. So it just means you have to go less distance and it saves money. And a lot of office buildings, even older ones, have higher ceilings, which today is very desirable for apartments. So if you can have a building that has natural light, high ceilings, and you can get grant money to do it, that's definitely something people should look into. And even with a smaller building, I've seen people in New York people are converting 5000 foot office buildings into like five units. You know, there's money to be made. You just have to buy right. I always say, you know, if you can buy $1 for 50 cents. Buy it. Don't buy $1 and hope it goes to $2 A   Keith Weinhold  28:25   lot of these physical limitations, oftentimes in the office to residential conversion, and Todd in the residential world, oftentimes apartment buildings have been problematic. A lot of these syndicators have had their deals blow up because in 2022 or earlier they got five to seven year fixed rate debt. Those deals are coming due. The mortgage payments double, and a lot of times the operator just can't meet it, and it blows up. And apartment building values have been down about 30% nationally, largely for that reason, even though an apartment building owner gets a commercial loan, I still want to know from the commercial side and the commercial use type how much higher interest rate pain do you see that has surfaced and is still going to surface.   Todd Drowlette  29:17   So, I'll answer this by quoting my grandmother. She said, "Anytime you want to cook, whatever size pot you think you need, pick twice that size pot and start using that.   Keith Weinhold  29:29   Yeah.   Todd Drowlette  29:29   So I say the same thing when you're financing a deal or you're writing it out and seeing what your returns are. I always say to people, make sure that you have a big enough cushion in there for all the things you can never predict in commercial loans, there's a ton of guys that are about to lose their shirts, and you're starting to see it because, unfortunately, I don't know if it's true in residential real estate, but in commercial real estate, I've seen guys go from nothing to 50 million, 100 million, $200 million net worths, but I've also seen. Lose everything. So what happens in commercial real estate that you don't want to do is so many people say OPM, use other people's money, use other people's money, use other people's money, which is fine as a strategy. But what you don't want to do is cross collateralized loans. So if you have one property and then you go, oh, let me refinance that and then buy a next property and I'll refinance that and buy the next property, and then the bank's like, okay, we'll refinance that, but we're going to now tie all these properties together as one mortgage, or you're going to cross guarantee these properties. Right. The problem with that is, the people who do that strategy, if you started at that, you know, in 2021 when interest rates, you could get things at three and three quarters percent. Well, commercial loans are five-year loans typically, and they might have 20 or 20-five-year amortizations. So, unlike a residential mortgage that's a 15 or 20 or 30-year self-amortizing loan, they're not. At the end of five years, you have a balloon payment that you have to pay off. So, if interest rates are going down, that's amazing because if your tenants are the same, and even if your rents didn't change, and you bought something at 6% and now it's at 5% Your cash flow goes up significantly, and nothing happened other than your refinance. The problem is you have a ton of guys right now, guys, women, people that were financing stuff five years ago at three and three quarters, and now interest rates are hanging six and a quarter, six and a half, depending on the property, is might maybe seven. Same tenant, same everything. You're giving the keys back to the bank because you're broke now. Because all of a sudden you're financing, you squeeze too much out of the deal. I always say you can take on the in in or you can take on the out, but you can't have both. So when people are financing stuff, they just need to make sure. Like here's another thing I'll go off on. A lot of people will buy stuff with tax credits, and you see even with residential apartments, a lot of guys are financing that, selling people tax credits. Economies and things change and things move. If a deal is so tight that you need the tax credits to make the deal make sense, yeah, don't do the fricking deal because tax credits should be an added bonus. That's just, hey, that's a nice adding to the cushion. So many people have razor thin margins. They go, oh well, I do the tax credits. If I can get 70 cents on the dollar, this is how I make the money. I tell people I will have nothing to do with tax credit deals unless it's strictly a bonus. The deal has to stand on its own, and always assume in the course of five years interest rates could go up three points or down three points. Most people will not listen to me and will not do that. If you do that, you'll never get killed and you won't lose a property. It's super conservative, but there's enough money you can make, and if you buy it right, that's how you can afford to figure that spread in when you're financing something. But just so many people get greedy, and I just think back to my friend Bob Bear, who died. I met him when he was like 70-five. He was a billionaire, self-made, and he used to say to me, "It's not what you make; it's what you keep. And when people would ask how rich are you, he knew how rich he was. He would say, "I don't owe anybody in the world a dime.   Todd Drowlette  32:59   And to me, my entire strategy is I don't owe anybody in the world a dime. So I personally look at deals and say, out of my own cash flows, what can I buy? And instead of buying four properties a year, I might buy one property a year. But if I'm buying that and compounding my returns, I'm not paying interest to the banks. So it's just a different strategy. I sleep at night. I'm like the multimillionaire next door. I don't live extravagantly. I don't drive Ferraris and Rolls Royces. That's just not my thing. But I sleep at night and I have peace, which is important to me, knowing I don't owe anybody in the world a dime. But will I get as rich as the guy who's risking everything? No. But real estate to me is musical chairs, and the music always stops at some point. And there's never enough chairs for everybody. But if you're somebody who's in a cash position, which you're going to be going through in the next six months to a year, on the residential and commercial, I think there's going to be blood in the streets. And I think people who are sitting in cash are going to have like a once in a lifetime opportunity to buy things at a deep discount.   Keith Weinhold  34:02   Philosophically, we're different in one way. I use debt and leverage to grow larger, but ensuring that I do have enough income to cover the mortgage and all the operating expenses. But Todd, to your analogy about your grandmother in selecting a bigger pot than what she would need to cook whatever she's going to do, when it does come to debt, the last time I bought an apartment building myself, which wasn't recent, I could have chosen seven-year fixed-rate debt with a balloon at the end, or 10-year fixed-rate debt with a balloon at the end. The 10-year fixed-rate debt cost me one quarter of a percent more in mortgage rate, which dented my cash flow during the entire duration of that loan. But I did indeed choose that 10-year loan in order to have that much more certainty, and I sure am glad that that's what I did.   Todd Drowlette  34:54   That's always the game because it's people think that rich people know what you don't, or it's inside. Whatever I'm like. Number one, if you sit in a room with a bunch of rich people, yes, they will work against you if it benefits them to work together. But if it doesn't, you have egos and separate interests that are all competing. And there's always that thing of I know very very rich people who could buy and sell me 100 times over, and I also know that you don't know what you don't know, and the world has gotten so complicated, and financial markets are all intertwined globally. Anyone to be able to predict, it's like it's a crapshoot when you're like, okay, do I take seven years? Where do I think interest rates will be in seven years? It's hard to say where interest rates going to be tomorrow. You ask a banker tomorrow, they can't tell you. So it's like, what's your best educated guess of seven or 10 years? What's the better play? But I always go the conservative route.   Keith Weinhold  35:43   I think it's easier to predict the future direction of capital prices than it is interest rates. Myself,   Todd Drowlette  35:50   but I will say also, I am the exception. And if you have 100 other guests on here in the next year, well, 50-one more guests in here the next year, yeah, they would all say Todd's an idiot. That's terrible advice. If you want to get rich, literally leverage, leverage. Just do it intelligently, and I acknowledge that. I don't see the world the way other people do, but my end game is to be rich and comfortable, and to sleep at night with peace. And that's why I choose to do what I do, realizing I'm giving up. It's the you know what are you giving up to what do you gain benefit analysis, and I'm realizing I'm giving up some upside in my total potential net worth. But I like peace, and you know I had anxiety for years. I don't have it anymore, and I live my life to be as anxiety free as I can possibly be.   Keith Weinhold  36:34   That's interesting, and that certainly works for you, Todd. What's one negotiation tactic that you get from dealing with, well, let's say Decca or Centa million dollar commercial deals that our listeners could use the very next time that they buy a rental property.   Todd Drowlette  36:53   So the number one mistake I think people make is they assume what's motivating the other person, and they assume it's always price. So anytime I'm going to negotiate a deal from someone, whoever has the most information always wins, and whoever doesn't need the deal always wins. Yeah. So I want to know as much about that other person on the other side as I am. Are they going through a divorce? Are they desperate? Do they hate each other? Is it a partnership breakup? Did somebody inherit it and they live five states away and don't even know what this thing is worth that they have. So the number one thing from a negotiating standpoint is understand exactly who you're negotiating with and what's motivating them. From an actual tactic standpoint, just think logically through whatever the process is, and you can always go up. You can't go down. So the key is to offer as little as you can without insulting the person, so they don't even respond. So figure out what that fine line is, and before you go into the negotiation, know what your walk away number is. That's just the point you're not getting over. The fast way to lose in a negotiation is to get stuck in a bidding war. There's nothing I want so much that I'm going to overpay for it. So when people go, "Well, if somebody else is interested, I go then sell it to them. Yeah, I don't need it. Sell it to them. And then the other thing I'll say is, if you start the negotiation, this is the one piece. Say your number and shut up. So many people are scared of silence. And then, right, if the person doesn't immediately respond, they go, "Oh, well, I guess I offered you 500,000 I mean, I guess I could go 550. As soon as you talk after you give a number, you're negotiating against yourself. So throw the number, let it land wherever it lands, and do not talk until that person responds to you. That's like the number one mistake I see people do. They throw out a number, they get nervous with the silence, and then they immediately go up in their offer. That person could have been thinking, "Oh my God, did I forget to call back my whatever? And they're not even thinking about the number you just threw out. But people just assume, oh God, the number was too low, and then they negotiate against those. Do not do that.   Keith Weinhold  38:48   Risk the awkward silence. And yes, to your point about learning more about the other side, terms are often more important than price for sure. Well, Todd, you know a lot of commercial real estate content in mainstream media it tends to focus on these big institutional deals. But what has made your A and E show interesting, the Real Estate Commission, is what it's called. Is it focuses more on sort of leasing and this negotiation that we're just touching on there, and that's what makes you interesting. So tell us about what audiences can expect for season two of the Real Estate Commission on A and E.   Todd Drowlette  39:24   So, season two, you will 100% see real landlords, real brokers, real investors. You'll see real retailers. You'll see people relocating their offices in New York City. You'll see stuff in upstate New York. It's generally in the Northeast. In the first season, we helped a kitchen cabinet manufacturer relocate their suburban offices in Philadelphia. I sold a 50-unit HUD property that has a HAP contract you might be familiar with. That was crazy going through a bankruptcy foreclosure proceeding two year. That was crazy. Yeah, so you are going to. See more of that. It's a documentary. It's not a reality show, so you're watching the deal as it unfolds. Some things have happy endings. Some things have terrible endings, but they're real endings either way. So people will see a lot of that of deals happening in the Northeast. And if someone's listening and they're a business owner and they want to be part of the show, they can apply. We're announcing the casting will be open for about three weeks across the U.S. They can go to the realestatecommission.com/forward/tv and they can apply to be part of the show.   Keith Weinhold  40:32   Now, since you started this last year, I want to ask: Has this A and E exposure helped you generate more business and create traffic? I would really think so.   Todd Drowlette  40:42   Yeah, I wasn't sure. You know how because you never anything new. You never know, right? Like I put time and energy into it. It definitely did. Definitely, people start to notice you, which is a little weird. I was in a cell phone store, and they literally it was playing, and the guy's like, "Oh, it's you! Like, and then everybody who's walking in, he's like, "Hey, look, it's the guy on TV. He's right here. That was like kind of an awkward. Like, I'm like, "Okay, this is weird. Guy was excited, so that was fine. It's an adjustment of things, but it definitely has increased our overall visibility and people reaching out to do deals with us for sure.   Keith Weinhold  41:18   Is there any last resource you'd like to tell our audience about.   Todd Drowlette  41:21   I would just quickly announce the first season did so well. We're actually doing a spinoff show that'll also air on A and E called the Real Estate Commission New York that we're casting in upstate New York as well as New York City for brokers, agents, home sellers, home buyers that will actually document real buyers, real sellers, same thing. It'll follow our format, which I know there's a million shows on TV about real estate. Those are reality shows, not docu series. And I'll say, without going into the details, there's a very big difference between those two and what you're actually seeing on camera and what's happening. That will air in March of 2027, back to back with our show, I will make cameos in that. But I'm executive producing that show, so from your residential audience, that's a show they should tune into. I think they'll get a lot out of it.   Keith Weinhold  42:12   Congratulations! Your show has had so much success that it's setting the template for another show, and it has been most interesting since we first had you here last year to follow this along, Todd Drowlette. It's been a valuable chat. Thanks so much for coming back onto the show.   Todd Drowlette  42:28   I'd love to come back anytime, and thank you so much for having me on again. I appreciate it.   Keith Weinhold  42:38   Drowlette is spelled D R O W L E T T E. Todd and I talk a good bit off mic as well. In addition to the elevators, sometimes he emphasizes how cumbersome to impossible HVAC system compatibility is when you're doing office to residential building conversions. Too, you just never seem to hear about an easier than expected office to residential property conversion. It is most interesting and rare that Todd is not much of a leverage guy at all. Whereas in the vein of financially free beats debt free, I like to approach deals where the interest cost is lower than the expected opportunity cost. When it comes to negotiating, some of Todd's approach, you know, it's similar to what prominent hostage negotiator Chris Voss shared with you here on the show a few years ago. That silence is powerful in negotiating. In fact, if you feel like you need to say something to fill the silence. Use what Chris Voss calls the mirroring technique, and the mirroring technique that is simply repeating what the other party just said, kind of like a parrot would. For example, if you're trying to buy a property and the seller says that the best they can do is sell it to you for 550k and a delayed 90-day close. Reply with 550k and a 90-day close, and then listen to see if the seller comes down from there. Or instead, you can simply say nothing and just sit there with the silence like Todd recommended. The reason I like these particular negotiating techniques right here is that they're easy to remember and they're easy to do. You either remain silent or, per the mirroring technique, you just repeat the last words that the other party said. Thanks to Todd Drowlette today, you can check out the real estate commission on A and E Coming up here on the show soon.

We had a guest cancel at the last minute, so Craig, Suzanne, and I opened drinks and talked about my absolute disaster of a travel day. I'm not giving away the whole thing, but yesterday involved delayed flights, a plane too hot to board, a jammed wheelchair, Atlanta airspace doing Atlanta airspace things, a sick flight attendant, a Popeyes dream that died quickly, a late-night LIRR miracle, and the crushing realization that I wasn't getting Taco Bell at the end of it. Suzanne somehow turned our text thread into a blues song, Craig did Craig things, and I tried to explain the whole mess without reliving too much trauma. We also got to the important business:

This week on Cooking Issues, Dave and the crew are joined by Alex Hawk, Manager of Culinary Innovation at Burger King, and Zach Young, Director of Culinary and Commercialization at Burger King, for a rare look inside the food science, logistics, and product development behind one of the largest restaurant systems in the world.They get into what it actually takes to create food for millions of people: bakery supply chains, fresh bread logistics, Whopper improvements, tomato specs, lettuce formats, clean-label constraints, regional menu development, and the challenge of making recipes work across thousands of restaurants and multiple generations of equipment.The conversation also covers home frying versus commercial frying, fryer oil, Popeyes chicken, Burger King's relationship to Puerto Rico and the Whopper Jr., artificial sweeteners, frozen carbonated beverages, CVAP ovens, water fryers, potato freezers measured in hundreds of millions of pounds, and why even a seemingly simple menu change can become a massive operational question.Plus: Diet Coke loyalty, green ketchup, edible Tide Pods that mercifully never happened, the original chicken sandwich, secret-menu chaos, and the realities of innovating inside a global fast-food system.

Johnny Mac covers Mark Normand admitting on Maury Povich's podcast that he fabricated a story about Netflix censoring a Muslim bit, prompting criticism from humorism.xyz and Mac's uncertainty about whether Netflix had partly influenced the situation. He notes Nate Bargatze returning to social media to promote Texas dates after backlash over UFC photos with figures including Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Mike Johnson, and Sarah Huckabee Sanders, with The Daily Beast claiming critical comments are being deleted; he also cites Steve Byrne's jab at W. Kamau Bell. Mac recaps Carlos Mencia's post-arrest appearance at Jimmy Kimmel's Comedy Club, new jail/tax material, and allegations of owing California back taxes, then discusses Louis C.K.'s new Netflix special amid commentary questioning what he's done to earn mainstream return. He runs through late-night ratings, mentions a Donkey spinoff and Shrek 5, The Paper Season 2, Columbus Comedy Festival lineup, and an Australian comic praising Popeyes.00:27 Mark Normand Netflix Story 02:13 Nate Bargatze UFC Backlash02:52 Comments Getting Deleted03:49 Comedians Feud Over Nate04:09 Carlos Mencia Karaoke Return05:22 Mencia Tax Case Material07:27 Louis CK Netflix Comeback09:19 Late Night Ratings Rundown12:53 World Cup Popeyes Rant  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/daily-comedy-news-with-johnny-mac-a-daily-briefing-on-comedians-and-the-comedy-industry--4522158/support.Daily Comedy News with Johnny Mac is a daily podcast covering comedians, stand-up comedy, late night television, and the comedy industry.

The Tim Conway Jr. Show Hour 2 (6.19) Conway kicks off the hour with the one and only Neil Saavedra in studio — now officially “Flaco” after dropping 27 pounds in two weeks following bariatric sleeve surgery. Neil breaks down the new world of sipping, portion control, and eating dime-sized bites while Conway reacts the only way Conway can. Then the crew gets into the average weight of men around the world, Neil accidentally absorbing World Cup fever, and Foosh taking “as the crow flies” way too seriously. From crows flying 20 to 30 miles per hour to measuring distance like a “sparrow fart,” the conversation goes full Conway. Later, the Boyle Heights cold warehouse fire reignites for a third time, while Neil reveals he is building a remote-controlled R2-D2 in his shop. That launches the crew into Star Wars talk, Disney buying Lucasfilm, the massive value of the franchise, C-3PO weight loss goals, Andor confusion, and why Popeyes is actually named after Gene Hackman’s character from The French Connection. The hour wraps with yet another Boyle Heights warehouse flare-up, because apparently this fire has more comebacks than a Star Wars sequel.
