In this special episode, Gresham Harkless Jr. launches a new “Franchise CEO” segment within the IAMCEO podcast to chronicle his BlueStar Franchise startup, offering aspiring entrepreneurs a real‑time look at the challenges and decisions involved in building a business. He now targets people who publicly ask franchising‑related questions on podcasts, social media, and newsletters, aiming for a handful of high‑quality conversations each week instead of a high volume of low‑quality leads. To sustain this pipeline, he aggregates prospects from YouTube, his newsletter, Facebook groups, and other social channels into a single master list.

In this episode of the Nerdy Photographer Podcast, we're taking to the skies—literally. I sat down with award-winning photographer and author Chase Guttman, whose groundbreaking book on drone photography helped launch an entire generation of aerial image-makers. As one of the earliest voices in the drone photography space, Chase brings insight, experience, and a healthy dose of sky-high inspiration. We talk about what it means to compose an image when your camera is 400 feet off the ground, how to think three-dimensionally when navigating space and light, and the gear that every aspiring drone photographer should consider. Whether you're just getting started or looking to take your drone work to the next level (pun definitely intended), this conversation is packed with valuable tips and tools. Chase also shares his thoughts on the creative freedom drones offer photographers, the importance of storytelling from above, and how to stay legally safe and respectful while flying. Spoiler: it's not just about dodging birds and watching your battery life—although those are important too. So if you've ever looked up at the sky and wondered what your photography might look like from that vantage point, this episode is for you. Tune in to learn from one of the pioneers of drone imagery and find out how you can bring new perspective—literally and creatively—to your work.

Justin Huhn, Founder and Publisher of the Uranium Insider, joins me for yet another very comprehensive macro update on the supply and demand fundamentals for uranium and the nuclear fuel sector.   After just getting back from the World Nuclear Symposium in London, Justin provides some boots-on-the-ground feedback as to the longer-term contracting cycle is setting up with utility companies, different bottlenecks in the nuclear fuel cycle that he is watching, and how he is positioning in the uranium equities to feed the front end of that supply chain. This is a longer-format discussion building upon our prior conversations in 2024 and early 2025, because even more key macro news and company developments have been announced in the nuclear and uranium sector.   We start off reviewing the series of right-tail risks that are propelling the sector and supply/demand fundamentals to the upside.   In addition to the global reactor builds, pinch points in enrichment, buying in the spot markets from the Yellowcake fund and Sprott Physical Uranium Trust, and the 4 executive orders out of the Trump Administration in May that focused on the nuclear and uranium industries; we've continued to see even more factors stacking up for the bullish longer-term thesis.  Justin highlights that just this afternoon we saw the Trump administration announce that it was researching building up a strategic uranium reserve, which sent many uranium stocks up double-digits on the day.   Transitioning over the supply environment from the uranium mining companies, we've seen a flurry of news all year out of producers across the board struggling to ramp up production.  Justin unpacks the news out of Kazatomprom, the largest uranium swing producer in Kazakhstan, lowering expected guidance, as well as Canadian senior uranium producer Cameco (CCO.V) (CCJ) discussing the difficulty they are having in sourcing skilled labor to expand their operations.   Next we point out that large development projects in the Athabasca Basin of Canada, like the Phoenix Project held by Denison Mines (TSX: DML) (NYSE: DNN), Paladin Energy's (ASX: PDN) (OTCQX: PALAF) Triple R/Patterson Lake Project, and in specific the importance of the Arrow Project from NexGen Energy (TSX: NXE) (NYSE: NXE), seeing timelines get pushed back to 2030 or later. There is very little new supply coming online globally, with the exception of some smaller production out of the US and Australian producers. All of this points to a much more constrained output from global uranium producers, even in face of growing uranium demand.   Justin highlights the opportunity he sees for growth in the smaller US producers and developers, and that he expects to see merger and acquisition transactions in this jurisdiction in the years to come.   Wrapping up, Justin weighs in on the importance of seeing more developers and explorers move projects forward, and that the exploration stocks in particular have been left for dead by investors and represent compelling value propositions in this current environment.   Click here to visit the Uranium Insider website.

Agentic AI programming is what happens when coding assistants stop acting like autocomplete and start collaborating on real work. In this episode, we cut through the hype and incentives to define “agentic,” then get hands-on with how tools like Cursor, Claude Code, and LangChain actually behave inside an established codebase. Our guest, Matt Makai, now VP of Developer Relations at DigitalOcean, creator of Full Stack Python and Plushcap, shares hard-won tactics. We unpack what breaks, from brittle “generate a bunch of tests” requests to agents amplifying technical debt and uneven design patterns. Plus, we also discuss a sane git workflow for AI-sized diffs. You'll hear practical Claude tips, why developers write more bugs when typing less, and where open source agents are headed. Hint: The destination is humans as editors of systems, not just typists of code.
