Today, we examine a year that looked chaotic but felt familiar to trend followers. Gold surged, equities rotated globally, and non-US markets quietly gained momentum. Yet beneath strong returns lies a deeper debate about model design, short versus long horizon signals, and whether innovation in liquid alternatives serves investors or sales desks. From AI disruption to product engineering and allocator behavior, this episode explores where systematic strategies truly create value and where structural incentives distort outcomes. In a changing macro regime, clarity of purpose may matter more than ever.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Andrew on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps: 00:00 - Introducing the Systematic Investor series01:17 - AI disruption and systematic investing06:52 - The shifting perception of US risk09:21 - Winter Olympics and market metaphors12:59 - Hedge funds versus private equity19:23 - 2025 review and the importance of risk allocation22:17 - Why CTAs did not fully capture gold29:48 - Short term versus long term trend models35:27 - Letting risk run versus investor palatability44:43 - The problem with liquid alternatives51:21 - Product design versus fiduciary duty59:06 - QIS, innovation and investor sophistication01:04:41 - Model risk and the myth of risk premia01:10:51 - Hopes for a trending year aheadCopyright © 2025 – CMC

But most people don't know the story behind the brand.In this episode, Jeremy Ogorek sits down with Hans to talk about losing everything in a New York tech startup, moving back in with his mom, buying a van, and accidentally stumbling into a health brand that's now replacing every product in your bathroom — and soon, your pantry too. We also get into the "everything is a lie" awakening, why fluoride was his first red flag, what's actually in the products you put on your skin, and how he's now selling $6 grass-fed smash burgers out of a restaurant in Pacific Beach that keeps selling out.If you've been rethinking what you put on and in your body, this one's for you.Chapters: 00:00 – Opening segment 01:25 – Van's background: CPA, quitting his first job, joining a NYC tech startup 05:15 – The startup collapse: $8M raised, celebrity investors, and losing everything 08:55 – Fluoride as the first red flag and the origin of the eggshell tooth powder 14:05 – How the tallow balm was born and why it went viral 19:00 – "Your skin is a mouth" — the philosophy behind Van Man products 21:25 – Product lineup: deodorant, sunscreen, bug balm, soap, shampoo, eye cream 30:30 – The Van Man restaurant in Pacific Beach: $6 grass-fed burgers 36:00 – The business model: restaurants, gas stations, and movie theaters as product "stunts" 43:25 – Other clean brands: Masa Chips, Orum, Rosie's Chips 53:00 – Vaccines, home birth, and the broader health awakening 57:00 – What's next: tallow popcorn, clean Snickers bars, cough drops, and an RFK collab1:04:15 – Closing segmentKey Takeaways:Tallow isn't a trend — it's a return to what worked for thousands of years. People are reporting cleared rosacea, vanishing acne, and healed scars from a balm made of five ingredients you could eat. Meanwhile, the dermatologist-recommended steroid creams weren't solving the same problems in a decade.Your skin is your largest organ, and it absorbs what you put on it. If you wouldn't eat the ingredients in your lotion or deodorant, ask yourself why you're comfortable rubbing them into your skin — especially in high-absorption areas like your armpits.Fluoride was the first domino. It's the only non-opt-in medication — it's in your tap water, your toothpaste, and it's free. Once you ask why they care so much about your cavities, the rest of the questioning begins.The restaurant isn't really about the restaurant. Van Man Burgers in Pacific Beach sells $6 grass-fed smash burgers at near break-even. The real play is getting clean products in front of new customers. Every "stunt" — restaurant, gas station, movie theater — is a storefront for the mission.You don't need permission to start. Van went from credit card debt and a van to building a brand, a restaurant, and a product line — all by following his gut, tweeting his thoughts, and making products he wanted to use himself. The XP comes from doing, not reading.

Sometimes the most useful wellness advice is simply paying attention to what you already reach for.In this episode of Wellness Junkies, Amy reflects on what it actually means to trust your own taste when it comes to beauty, skincare, and wellness. The conversation centers on choosing products based on lived experience rather than trends, and noticing which ones quietly earn their place in everyday routines. There is an ease to the way she talks about shopping, rooted in paying attention to what supports real life instead of chasing what is new.Skincare plays a central role, framed around ease, comfort, and how products feel over time. Amy explains why certain formulas stay in rotation and how her standards have shifted toward performance and simplicity. The emphasis stays clear and grounded. Fewer products that do their job well tend to support routines better than crowded shelves and big promises.Overall, the episode offers a steady reminder that wellness does not need to be complicated to be effective. Let your daily habits guide your choices, trust what you genuinely enjoy using, and allow your routines to evolve by letting go of what no longer fits.Episode Breakdown:00:00 A Real-Life Product Junkies Episode02:20 Favorite Beauty Products, Skincare, and Fashion Finds08:51 What I'm Watching and Reading Right NowShop this episode: You know we love to give you the best of the best in wellness products and resources to help you learnmore about our podcast topics.

Are you actually growing your product, or just stacking signups that never turn into usage?A lot of teams get stuck there. More registrations feel good, but it's not the same as real usage, paid adoption, and a pipeline you can trust. And now with AI in the mix, it's easy to create more activity without getting more signal.In this episode of B2B SaaS Marketing Snacks, hosts Stijn Hendrikse and Brian Grav bring on their first guest, Alex Laventer.Alex has spent years in growth roles in B2B SaaS, including leading growth at DataStax and now leading go-to-market work on an AI agent product at IBM.The conversation gets practical fast, what “growth” really means, and how teams split (or combine) growth marketing and product growth.You'll walk away with a clearer way to measure growth, how to set up tracking you can rely on, and where AI can help (and where it tends to distract), including lead scoring and workflow automation.In this episode, you'll learn:Why signups mislead growth conversationsWhere teams lose signal without trackingHow PQLs connect product and marketingPerspective on sales assist with PLGExample: AI-assisted lead scoring workflows By the end, you'll know what to measure, what to ignore, and what to fix next so “growth” stops being a vague label and starts being a real operating system. Resources shared in this episode:BSMS 88 - Why founders overestimate PLG, and what VCs should check before investingBSMS 23 - Product led growth vs. sales led growthThe Foundation of a Successful SaaS GTM (Go-to-Market) Strategy T2D3 CMO MasterclassSubmit and vote on our podcast topicsABOUT B2B SAAS MARKETING SNACKSSince 2020, The B2B SaaS Marketing Snacks Podcast has offered software company founders, investors and leadership a fresh source of insights into building a complete and efficient engine for growth.Meet our Marketing Snacks Podcast Hosts: Stijn Hendrikse: Author of T2D3 Masterclass & Book, Founder of KalungiAs a serial entrepreneur and marketing leader, Stijn has contributed to the success of 20+ startups as a C-level executive, including Chief Revenue Officer of Acumatica, CEO of MightyCall, a SaaS contact center solution, and leading the initial global Go-to-Market for Atera, a B2B SaaS Unicorn.

Send Us a Message (include your contact info if you'd like a reply)The loudest stories are getting the clicks, but are they serving clients? In this episode, we dig into a growing trend in divorce coaching—marketing that centers personal divorce and betrayal narratives—and examine how story-first positioning blurs boundaries, preloads expectations, and weakens trust with clients and referral partners. Lived experience can spark a calling, yet without training, supervision, and clear standards of practice, narrative becomes a substitute for competence instead of context for care.We share a colleague's candid market signal about boundary issues on social platforms and unpack why it matters for a profession that's maturing under increased scrutiny. From the collapse of experience and expertise to the downstream effects on decision quality, we map the operational risks when coaches promise resonance over results. We also take a hard look at narrative-led training programs that elevate a founder's story into “methodology,” and we explain how that shift erodes self-regulation, turns certification into symbolism, and confuses consumers who cannot see the difference between ADR-aligned coaching and scaled storytelling.Then we offer a path forward. We outline how to right-size personal stories—context, not credential—and restore professional sequencing: my experience led me here, and my training allows me to help you. We argue for parity with family law professions where credibility rests on ethics, restraint, and competency, not disclosure. Expect practical framing you can use today, including a simple audit question for your website and messaging: if your personal story vanished, would your professional value still be clear? The future of divorce coaching depends on discipline over drama and structure over spectacle; clarity compounds trust.If this conversation resonates, subscribe, share with a colleague, and leave a review. Your feedback helps push the profession toward higher standards and better outcomes for clients navigating divorce.

Level up your B2B marketing and build a brand that actually stands out: subscribe to the Pipe Dream podcast from B2B Better for narrative-driven B2B marketing strategy, media-led content ideas, and practical GTM frameworks from host Jason Bradwell. If "thinking like a media company" feels like empty advice, this episode shows you exactly what it means in practice. In this episode of Pipe Dream, host Jason Bradwell sits down with David Rowlands, Head of Product at B2B Marketing and Propolis, to unpack how a traditional magazine and events business transformed into a community-led subscription media model during the pandemic. David's core point is clear: in a world flooded with AI-generated content and collapsing trust, B2B marketers need to move beyond helpful content and start creating valuable, memorable work. The kind buyers remember weeks later because it's built on proprietary data, real CMO conversations, and peer learning you can't get anywhere else. When COVID-19 hit, B2B Marketing's events business went on indefinite hold overnight. At the same time, digital publishing barriers disappeared and trust collapsed. Anyone could write a blog or publish a report, creating massive noise. B2B marketers needed a place to get clear answers and learn from peers without sorting through the chaos. That's how Propolis was born. B2B Marketing formalised their Leaders Program into a subscription model around expert advisory, private community, and proprietary benchmarking. Instead of competing on helpful content anyone could replicate, they built something AI fundamentally can't: genuine community combined with anonymized member data that powers insights like the Propolis Community Index. David explains why this matters beyond B2B Marketing. The brands winning attention aren't publishing more content, they're creating distinctive IP that connects community, insights, training, and events into one ecosystem. And heading into 2026, measurement and attribution remain the core challenge, not because the tools don't exist, but because proving marketing's commercial impact still feels like an uphill battle. The conversation also covers what AI means for B2B marketing teams right now. While 91% of marketers are experimenting with AI, the real challenge isn't adoption, it's knowing where AI helps versus where it creates problems. The marketers struggling most are stuck in lead generation mode, unable to have strategic conversations about marketing's actual impact on revenue. If you want a blueprint for building a media-first B2B strategy without the "more content" trap, this is it.

Magic Spoon is proof that breaking the rules can be the smartest move in CPG. In this episode, co-founder Gabi Lewis breaks down how the premium cereal and snack brand launched – and scaled – in a category most people had already written off. He shares why Magic Spoon anchored on protein and nostalgia from day one, how it made the jump from DTC to national retail without losing profitability, and what actually mattered along the way. Gabi gets candid about product-market fit, pricing, branding, word-of-mouth growth, retail velocity, and the tradeoffs that come with innovation – offering a clear, hard-earned playbook for founders building modern food and beverage brands. Show notes: 0:20: Gabi Lewis, Co-Founder, Magic Spoon – Gabi chats about his Glasgow roots and traces his path into food, and how cooking, fitness, and curiosity ultimately pulled him into entrepreneurship. He discusses his first CPG venture, EXO, a cricket-protein bar brand and reflects on being a young founder who didn't overthink risk. Gabi contrasts early investor reactions to EXO versus Magic Spoon and his belief that consumers still loved cereal emotionally but walked away for health reasons. He breaks down Magic Spoon's core playbook and hype as a downstream effect, the impact of influencer seeding, podcast ads and repeat purchases fueled by limited-edition flavors. Gabi also shares behind-the-scenes lessons on naming the brand, its focus on DTC before retail expansion, pricing strategy, and the constant tradeoffs between taste, nutrition, and ingredient standards. He also shares his long-term vision of building a defining breakfast company and how he finds happiness in high-pressure moments.

People analytics has spent years building credibility through data. Now the pressure is different. Business leaders aren't just asking for insight - they're expecting direction. Where should we invest? What should we stop doing? What risks are we not seeing yet? But many teams still find themselves pulled back into reporting cycles, ad-hoc requests, and an overemphasis on metrics that don't always lead to better decisions. So what shifts when people analytics starts operating more like a product and less like a project function? In this episode, David Green is joined by Ashar Khan, Head of People Insights and Solution Design at Autodesk, to explore how the function evolves from delivering data to shaping choices at scale. Join this conversation as they discuss: The skills and mindsets modern people analytics teams need beyond technical expertiseWhat an effective people analytics operating model looks like in practice The core capabilities required to bridge HR technology and HR strategy Where “metric fixation” leads organisations toward false confidence and poor decisions Why the assumption that AI automatically means “fewer people” misses the bigger picture Practical advice for CHROs building or redesigning a people analytics function today This episode is sponsored by Worklytics.

In this episode, Ian sits down with Marco Mueller, CMO of AVEVA, to explore how marketing operates as a strategic growth engine inside one of the world's leading industrial software companies.Marco shares how AVEVA balances speed and stability in a risk-averse category, why in-person events remain one of their most powerful channels, and how the team redesigned its campaign model to move faster without sacrificing quality. The conversation dives into AVEVA's global event strategy, including AVEVA World and 37 localized AVEVA Days. Key Takeaways:In-person events compress trust timelines. Face-to-face experiences move risk-averse buyers faster than any digital channel in complex B2B.Speed is a design problem, not a hustle problem.  Campaigns ship faster when you cut upfront complexity and build in room to adapt.The CMO's real job is integration. Growth happens when marketing aligns product truth, sales reality, and customer risk.Episode Timestamps: * (02:08) The Trust Tree: Why industrial software marketing is built on trust* (07:24) The Playbook: Events, positioning, and adaptive digital strategy* (45:24) Quick HitsSponsor:Pipeline Visionaries is brought to you by Qualified.com.

When your biosimilar analytical data shows 1.4% high mannose against a 6% reference product specification, you face limited options: process temperature shifts that compromise titer, kifunensine supplementation that requires extensive regulatory justification, or 12-18 months to reclone and revalidate. Media supplementation offers an alternative pathway—tuning glycan profiles through formulation adjustments rather than cell line or process re-engineering.In this episode, David Brühlmann presents the experimental development of a media supplementation strategy that achieved 2.8-fold increases in high mannose glycans across multiple CHO cell lines. Drawing from research published in the Journal of Biotechnology (2017, 252:32-42), the discussion covers the mechanism of raffinose-mediated glycan processing arrest, the experimental variables that initially obscured the effect, and the process development considerations for implementing media-based glycan tuning.The episode examines N-glycan biosynthesis in CHO cells, regulatory comparability requirements for biosimilar glycosylation profiles, and the experimental framework for evaluating media supplementation as a glycan control strategy.Highlights from the episode:The unexpected link between dietary raffinose and reduced athletic performance, and its connection to bioprocessing (01:11)A clear primer on the importance of glycosylation for biosimilar drugs and regulatory approval (02:43)Common challenges when glycan profiles don't match reference products, and why high mannose glycans matter (04:19)A review of industry strategies (temperature shifts, enzyme inhibitors, cell line reengineering) and their pitfalls (05:33)Mechanistic insights into how raffinose alters glycan processing in CHO cells (07:05)Key experimental findings on raffinose concentration, osmolality control, and practical lab troubleshooting (09:48)Application stories and regulatory considerations for implementing raffinose-based media adjustments (13:47)Closing thoughts on process optimization, regulatory impact, and what to expect in Part 2 (15:11)Strategic insight:Implementing raffinose as a media supplement is straightforward, regulatory-friendly, and cost-effective. It does not involve genetic engineering or enzyme inhibitors and is easily sourced as a GMP-grade material. For programs approaching submission with glycan comparability gaps, media-based tuning offers a process optimization pathway that maintains existing cell lines and manufacturing platforms while addressing critical quality attribute specifications.Listen to this episode of the Smart Biotech Scientist Podcast to learn David's best strategies for rapid, regulatory-friendly glycosylation control.If you want to transform your glycoengineering workflow, keep an eye (and ear) out for the next episode of the Smart Biotech Scientist Podcast.

Everyone's feeling jumpy about AI right now—and for good reason.The hype has been massive. The investment has been astronomical. But where's the actual return?In this episode, Azeem Azhar, founder of Exponential View and advisor to tech leaders and governments, breaks down why the next 18 months are make-or-break for AI. Companies need to prove there's real ROI, not just prototypes launched and tokens spent.We cover:What hard evidence would actually prove AI is working (hint: it's not usage metrics)Who can build a real moat with AI—and why the winners will likely come from unexpected places, as they have in previous tech transformationsThe physical constraints nobody wants to talk about: chips, data centers, power grids, and whether America's infrastructure is up to the taskWhy OpenAI's "ubiquity strategy" might be spreading too thin (and what Anthropic is doing differently)The "pragmatic addicts" problem: we're dependent on AI even though we don't trust itHow Azeem and his team use AI to be more productive, how they automate whatever they can, and why individual contributors are acting more like managers (of AI)Note: This interview was recorded months before the "SaaSpacolypse" (big market drop) of Feb 2026; the analysis is as relevant as ever. Chapters(01:51) - Why the next 18 months are the crucible for AI (04:09) - What hard evidence would actually prove AI ROI (not token counts!)

Join her free health & longevity newsletter here: https://www.drvondawright.com/resources/aging-longevity   Through decades of caring for women as an orthopedic sports surgeon, I've seen how many health challenges go unspoken. Body odor, vaginal health, and the shame and silence around them are not small issues. They affect confidence, relationships, and how women move through the world.   In this conversation, Shannon and I explore how a simple clinical observation became a breakthrough in understanding how odor works on the body. We discuss why women were taught to mask symptoms instead of understanding their source and how deeply stigma has shaped the way they experience their own bodies.   Shannon shares her journey from clinical practice to building products based on physiology rather than marketing myths. We also talk about the power of listening without judgment and giving women the language, knowledge, and permission to understand their bodies without embarrassment.   What we cover: - How Shannon's clinical practice revealed a hidden but widespread problem for women - Why odor is a bacterial issue, not a hygiene failure - The difference between masking symptoms and addressing root causes - How shame has shaped women's health messaging for decades - Why the vulva, skin folds, and external body deserve the same scientific attention - What it takes to challenge medical dogma as a woman physician - The leap from medicine to entrepreneurship and the resistance along the way - Building products that respect women's intelligence and lived experience - Why listening to patients changes everything - How confidence, dignity, and health are deeply connected About Shannon Klingman: Dr Shannon Klingman is an OB-GYN, innovator, and founder of Lume. She brings a rare blend of clinical insight, scientific rigor, and fearless honesty to women's health.

You might have heard that Allied just released a new feather-light trail bike this week. The FITZ is new territory for the brand, so it seemed like a good opportunity to bring in Allied's CEO Drew Medlock and Director of Product and Engineering Sam Pickman to talk about why they decided to add a trail bike to their lineup and what makes this one so unique. They discuss the nitty-gritty specs, of course, as well as the decision-making process and behind-the-scenes debates that went into it, but they also talk about their individual journeys with the bike, from defying the aging process to Payson's religious experience on a trail he's ridden countless times. Instagram: @withpacepodcastYouTube: Payson McElveen Email: howdy@withpace.cc

Dhruv and Ravi are back to talk about the rise of agentic AI — their experience with Claude Code and Cursor, what agents actually are, and why they think a tsunami is coming for software engineers and knowledge workers. The Tsunami Warning The feeling since late 2025 — prapancham roju roju ki maripotundi The COVID masks analogy — we are those people now Why the folks back home aren't feeling it yet Timeline — How We Got Here GPT-2 (2020) → ChatGPT (2022) → Cursor (2023) → Claude Code & Opus 4.5 (2025) The Evolution of AI Coding Chat interface — copy-paste snippets from ChatGPT Assisted coding — Cursor tab-complete, you drive, model navigates Agentic coding — the agent drives, you're the passenger Cursor vs Claude Code — why Claude Code wins The Autopilot vs FSD analogy WTF is a Model?

Two taps. That's all it took to reorder your regular Dunkin order through CarPlay while driving. Sounds like the perfect frictionless feature, right? Except it was quietly training customers to spend less on every visit because they never discovered loaded hash browns existed. Sometimes making things too easy becomes the problem.This encore episode brings back one of our most quoted conversations with Adam Candela, who spent five years leading digital at Dunkin and fundamentally changed how we think about balancing frictionless with profitability.  Join hosts Chuck Moxley and Nick Paladino as they revisit why this episode matters.Nick literally quotes it in meetings once a week, particularly the CarPlay example that shows how extreme optimization in one direction can backfire. Adam breaks down why frictionless isn't just about speed and simplicity, but about creating experiences that are quick, thorough, profitable, and get customers to return and recruit others to your brand. We explore when personalization crosses from convenient to creepy, why "it's digital, just turn it on" stakeholders fundamentally misunderstand product complexity, and the power of creating psychological safety so your QA team feels comfortable sharing game-changing ideas. Key Actionable Takeaways:Balance ease with discovery opportunities - Making reordering too frictionless can train customers into routines that prevent them from discovering new products, hurting both upsell and brand loyalty buildingCreate psychological safety for frontline insights - QA teams and people closest to the product often have the best ideas; build team dynamics where they feel comfortable sharing without fear of being dismissedChallenge "it's digital, just turn it on" stakeholders - Digital initiatives require architecture planning, story pointing, QA test cases, understanding customer needs, and solving actual problems, not just quick implementation of requested featuresWant more tips and strategies about creating frictionless digital experiences? Subscribe to our newsletter! https://www.thefrictionlessexperience.com/frictionless/Download the Five Step Site Speed Target Playbook: http://bluetriangle.com/playbookAdam Candela's LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/adamcandela Nick Paladino's LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/npaladino Chuck Moxley's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chuckmoxley/Chapters:(00:00) Introduction(01:00) CarPlay upsell problem(02:15) Creepy vs convenient(02:45) Hippo dynamics(03:15) Stakeholder pushback(04:09) Adam's Dunkin role(05:21) Defining frictionless(06:15) Loyalty vs repeat purchase(08:30) CarPlay integration details(11:45) Losing upsell opportunities(14:30) Personalization boundaries(17:00) Location-based notifications(20:15) Android Auto moment(23:45) Tech adoption humility(27:30) Team idea generation(30:00) QA team insights(33:15) Psychological safety(37:00) Hippo self-awareness(38:19) Acronym correction(38:45) Biggest misconception(39:15) Digital should be quick(40:00) Asking why matters(41:15) Solution vs problem(42:24) ConclusionKeywords:Chuck Moxley, Nick Paladino, Adam Candela, The Frictionless Experience, Dunkin Donuts, Inspire Brands, CarPlay integration, mobile ordering, upsell optimization, customer loyalty, personalization limits, location-based marketing, psychological safety, product management, stakeholder management, digital complexity, QA teams, frictionless profitability, customer recruitment,, mobile app strategy, product discovery,

At a moment when organizational change is too often treated as a mandate rather than an experience people choose to embrace, Phil Gilbert has spent his career proving that transformation only sticks when it earns genuine buy-in. Phil is a design executive, transformation leader and former General Manager of Design at IBM, where he architected one of the largest cultural and operational shifts in corporate history, helping nearly 400,000 employees across 180 countries become more entrepreneurial, agile and customer-centered. Trained as both a designer and systems thinker, Phil brought design thinking out of studios and into the core of enterprise decision-making, reshaping how teams collaborated, how products were built, and how leaders understood their customers. His work at IBM addressed hard truths, including the company's struggles with usability and missed opportunities in the early cloud era, by treating change itself as a product worthy of rigor, investment, and care. That experience became the foundation for his book Irresistible Change - A Blueprint For Earning Buy-In And Breakout Success, which blends narrative and field guide to show how large organizations can scale transformation by focusing on people, practices, and environments rather than slogans or top-down directives. Phil's approach reframes culture as an outcome, not an initiative, arguing that lasting change emerges when employees see themselves in the future being designed. Beyond IBM, his work as an executive coach and advisor continues to focus on how leaders navigate complexity, align teams, and thoughtfully integrate technologies like AI into human systems without eroding trust or creativity. Grounded in real-world execution rather than theory, Phil's perspective challenges organizations to stop forcing change and start making it irresistible.
