What actually happens after you donate a bag of clothes? Most people assume it gets sold locally to someone in need, but the reality is much bigger, stranger, and more global. In this episode of Infinite Loops, hosted by OSV's Nick Tawil, we sit down for a roundtable on the hidden global economy of secondhand textiles with Brian London, Marisa Adler, and Eric Stubin, all experts in the field. We discuss how the industry works, why fast fashion has made the problem harder, why 70% of the world uses secondhand clothing, what AI can and can't solve, and why turning an old shirt into a new shirt is still much harder than it sounds.

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Are you still optimizing your agency's content for Google while your clients are getting their answers from AI? Are you charging for the execution that AI is about to make obsolete, while giving away the strategy that commands real fees? Today's featured guest works with agencies navigating the shift from traditional search to generative engine optimization. He'll talk about what the Anthropic research actually says about how much of the work agencies do today can be automated, how AI reads content differently than Google does, and the practical steps any agency can take right now to show up in AI-generated answers before competitors figure it out. Tom Lee is an AI search and SEO specialist and co-founder of Visto, a platform that helps agencies build the visibility and optimization layer for the AI search era. Tom and his team advise agencies on generative engine optimization, or GEO, and how to position their clients to show up in AI-generated answers across platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overviews. His background includes working inside large enterprise companies including Apple and Walmart, where he managed SEO at scale. He now works directly with SEO and GEO agencies helping them build the strategic frameworks and content systems that translate traditional search authority into AI visibility. In this episode, we'll discuss: Is your value proposition still execution? Why GEO does not replace SEO Repackaging existing content will get you nowhere Subscribe Apple | Spotify | iHeart Radio Sponsors and Resources E2M Solutions: Today's episode of the Smart Agency Masterclass is sponsored by E2M Solutions, a web design and development agency that has provided white-label services for the past 10 years to agencies all over the world.

What the Anthropic Research Actually Says Tom referenced an Anthropic study published earlier this year that mapped out the theoretical automation potential across industries. For software development, AI can already handle around 35% of code generation, with a theoretical ceiling of 97%. For business and marketing functions including SEO, that ceiling is 94%. In his view, those numbers are not a reason to panic, but they are a reason to get clear on which part of the work you are actually selling. The agencies at risk are the ones whose value proposition is execution. Writing the content, building the links, pulling the reports: if that is what you are charging for, you are in the category that AI is actively compressing. The agencies that will hold their ground and grow their fees are the ones charging for judgment. Which topics to chase. Which content gaps matter. How to translate client expertise into something AI will actually cite. That is the 6% that automation cannot touch, and it is also the highest-margin work in the engagement. GEO Is Built on Top of SEO, Not Instead of It Something that gets lost in the noise around AI search is that GEO does not replace SEO. It extends it. Showing up in Google search results is still the foundation. What has changed is that showing up is no longer enough. AI reads content the way a human being reads it, evaluating whether the argument is convincing and whether the source is credible, not just whether the right keywords appear in the right density. That changes what good content has to do. The practical starting point Tom recommends is mapping what he calls the semantic space for a client: Identifying what topic areas people are actually raising in AI conversations that the client should be part of. From there, you translate that semantic space into specific prompts, run those prompts across the major AI platforms, and audit what comes back. Who is being cited? Where is the client showing up and where are they absent? What content is AI pulling from competitors that the client has not produced yet? That gap analysis is the strategic deliverable that commands real fees. It is also the work that no AI tool will do for you, because it requires knowing what the client actually wants to be known for. Why Repackaging Existing Content Gets You Nowhere Once you're clear about the topics your audience is looking for, there's something that will for sure not work the way many think it does. When you identify a content gap and ask AI to fill it, you get repackaged information drawn from the same sources the AI already used to generate the gap. That content does not move anything forward. AI knows where it got the data from. Recycled information does not earn citations. What earns citations is new data, original perspective, and subject matter expertise that advances the conversation rather than summarizing what already exists. The 5 step system Tom uses with his clients: Identify the content gaps Build a specific set of questions tied to those gaps Send those questions to a subject matter expert at the client Have them record a Loom or voice memo answering freely Use AI to transcribe and chunk that recording into content The raw material is original. The expertise is real. The content that comes out earns its place in the semantic space rather than competing with what is already there. Your Clients Are Training AI. Are You Helping Them Do It Right? The broader point running through this conversation is one that matters whether you run an SEO agency or not. AI systems are being trained on open-source content: social media posts, forum conversations, podcast transcripts, FAQ pages, markdown-formatted content. Every piece of content a client publishes is either building their presence in that training data or failing to. Agencies that understand this and can show clients where they are absent, who is filling that space instead, and what it would take to reclaim it, are in a fundamentally different conversation than agencies still talking about keyword rankings. The founders who will build authority in this environment are the ones creating real content from real expertise, showing up broadly enough to be present in the long tail of AI conversations, and charging for the strategic thinking that makes all of it coherent. The execution is becoming a commodity. The strategy never was. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset? Looking to dig deeper into your agency's potential?

If your content sounds like everyone else's and your sales feel slower than they should, this episode is going to call out exactly why. In this episode of The Real Truth About Business podcast, I'm breaking down how downplaying your unique selling point is quietly hurting your business strategy and revenue growth. This is for service-based entrepreneurs who are blending in, using generic titles, and wondering why their offers aren't standing out in a crowded market. After 9 years of experience, I can tell you this isn't about needing better tactics. It's about owning what actually makes you different. Inside this episode, I walk you through how your background, experience, and perspective are the key drivers of your sales process, and why trying to “fit in” is costing you clients.What You'll Learn:Why your unique selling point is critical for business growthHow downplaying your experience impacts your conversion rateThe difference between generic positioning and differentiated messagingHow to use your background to strengthen your pricing strategyWhy sounding like everyone else is slowing your sales processHow to stand out in a saturated, AI-driven marketEpisode Highlights:[00:00] Introduction: The problem with trying to fit in[02:00] Michelle's realization about her true positioning[05:00] Why your background is your biggest differentiator[07:30] Client example: content strategist vs. revenue strategist[09:30] Selling yourself vs. selling deliverables[11:00] Why generic messaging is hurting your salesKey Takeaways:Fitting In Is Costing You SalesHere's what I see constantly. Service-based entrepreneurs trying to label themselves in a way that feels familiar, safe, and easy to understand.After 9 years of working with business owners, I can tell you this is one of the fastest ways to blend into the noise.When you call yourself the same thing as everyone else, your audience has no reason to choose you. Your business strategy becomes interchangeable. And when that happens, your pricing strategy and sales process both get harder.Because now the only thing left to compete on is price or personality.Your Background Is Your Biggest AdvantageThe thing that makes you different is not something you need to create. It already exists.Your past experience. Your previous career. The way you think. The lens you bring into your work.That is your unique selling point.Inside the Focused Visionary Framework, this directly impacts all three pillars. Your positioning affects your pricing, your pipeline, and your sales process. If you're not clearly communicating what makes you different, your entire system weakens.Stop Selling Deliverables. Start Selling PerspectiveOne of the biggest mistakes I see is people listing what they do instead of how they think.Features. Deliverables. Packages.That's not what people buy.People buy the way you solve problems. They buy your perspective. They buy how you approach business strategy and revenue growth.When you lead with that, your messaging becomes stronger. Your audience connects faster. Your conversion rate improves because they understand why you specifically are the right fit.Generic Messaging Is Slowing Down Your GrowthWe are in a market where everything sounds the same.AI-generated content. Recycled strategies. Copy-paste messaging.And it's creating hesitation in buyers.When your content sounds like everyone else's, buyers take longer to decide. Your buyer journey gets longer. Your pipeline slows down.Differentiation is what speeds that up.You Don't Need a Better Title. You Need Better PositioningIt's not about finding the perfect title. It's about owning what makes you different and being willing to explain it.When you use language that actually reflects your expertise, people lean in. They get curious. They want to understand more.That's what drives conversations. That's what drives sales.And that's what creates real business growth.Resources MentionedSubscribe to Back Pocket Insights for FREEBook a CEO Strategy Call Learn more about The Missing Piece IntensiveLearn more about The Focused Visionary AcceleratorDownload the FREE Lead and Conversion TrackerSubscribe to the Sunday Morning Brew NewsletterAbout the Host:Michelle DeNio is a business strategist based in Sarasota, Florida, specializing in helping service-based entrepreneurs break through revenue plateaus using her Focused Visionary Framework.

Episode 994 of The Professional Left takes a hard look at the war on memory — the long, grinding campaign to erase what actually happened to this country and replace it with a comfortable myth that lets the people who caused the damage off the hook. A fascinating breakfast conversation between a writer and ten of his late father's Trump-voting friends provides the jumping-off point, raising a question that cuts right to the heart of everything: where exactly are these voters getting their opinions about Democrats, and has any of them ever actually listened to one? Driftglass and Blue Gal dig into the epidemic of recycled lies that keeps millions of Americans firmly convinced that Both Sides are equally to blame, no matter how much evidence piles up to the contrary. And with episode 1000 just around the corner, this one serves as a sharp reminder of why remembering clearly and accurately — and saying so out loud — is one of the most radical acts left in American politics.Links for this episode: Open Letters by Mersault – https://patricemersault.substack.com/Driftglass's guest appearances this week:Bob Cesca Show (May 20, 2026): https://www.bobcesca.com/the-bob-cesca-interview-driftglass-day-5-20-26/Nicole Sandler Show (May 20, 2026): https://nicolesandler.com/5-20-26/BradCast (May 21, 2026): https://bradblog.com/?p=16941Stay in Touch! Email: proleftpodcast@gmail.com Website: proleftpod.com Support via Patreon: patreon.com/proleftpod or Donate in the Venmo App @proleftpodMail: The Professional Left, PO Box 9133, Springfield, Illinois, 62791Support the show

Americans throw away nearly 5 million tons of film and flexible plastic packaging every year, and less than 1% of it gets recycled, according to The Recycling Partnership. The salad bag, the potato bag, the pallet wrap behind every grocery store — all of it is technically recyclable, almost none of it actually is, and food contact applications make the math even harder, because the FDA requires rigorous migration testing before a single recycled pellet can touch what we eat. Kevin Kelly, CEO of Emerald Packaging, the largest supplier of retail flexible packaging to the U.S. produce industry, has spent decades on that problem from inside the industry. In December 2025, his Union City, California–based, third-generation family business announced that it had eliminated more than 1 million pounds of virgin polyethylene over the previous year by replacing it with post-consumer recycled (PCR) material, including, in partnership with Walmart, Idaho Package, and Wada Farms, the first 30% PCR potato bag approved for direct food contact. In this episode of Sustainability In Your Ear, Kevin walks through what it actually took to get that bag on a Walmart shelf, why most flexible packaging companies still won't try, and why the most ambitious recycling law in the country may push the industry in the wrong direction.[Food-grade PCR is a different animal from the recycled plastic in a milk crate or a contractor bag. To pass FDA scrutiny, the feedstock has to be traceable from a known, food-adjacent source. For Emerald, that mostly means pallet wrap collected from Walmart distribution centers, washed, dried, and repelletized by suppliers like Dow Chemical's Circulus mechanical recycling business and Canada's Nova Chemicals. Variation in any given load of recyclable plastic causes carbon buildup on Emerald's extrusion lines, forcing a shutdown every eight hours for cleaning, and waste rates are higher than with virgin resin. The company has had to audit its own suppliers in person, push back on competitors who hide non-food-grade PCR in the middle layer of multilayer films and call it sustainable, and walk produce buyers through what “food-grade” actually means before they sign on. Kevin describes Emerald as “the canary in the coal mine” for food-grade PCR — he can't find another bag in the store that's labeled the same way.The harder argument Kevin makes is about policy. California's SB 54, the most ambitious extended producer responsibility (EPR) law in the country, with a 65% recycling rate target and a 25% source reduction mandate by 2032, was supposed to drive exactly the kind of work Emerald is doing. But Kevin says the rulemaking went the other way. The pound-for-pound PCR credit that would have rewarded companies for replacing virgin resin with recycled content was stripped out, and the fees are low enough that producers can hit early reduction targets through agricultural film and other low-hanging fruit without ever switching to food-grade PCR. The deeper structural problem Kevin lays out is the capital story. Family-owned manufacturers freed from quarterly returns pressure, Kevin argues, are doing more to push food-grade PCR forward today than the capital pools that are theoretically supposed to fund the energy and sustainability transition.To find out more about Emerald Packaging, visit empack.com.

Would you drink recycled wastewater? It could be a solution to the global water crisis. But not everyone is ready to jump onboard. They say it's not technology that's keeping more cities from recycling their wastewater, but psychology. Experts call this resistance “the yuck factor.” We chat with water journalist Peter Annin about some history behind water recycling – and why more cities could adopt the solution soon.This is part of a whole series on the world's dwindling water supply.

In this episode of Derms and Conditions, host James Q. Del Rosso, DO, welcomes David Seiter, FNP-C, for a wide-ranging discussion on challenging dermatologic dogma and integrating emerging evidence into clinical decision-making. They begin with Seiter sharing his approach to reviewing new literature, encouraging clinicians to look beyond mainstream dermatology journals to cross-disciplinary publications to help reshape long-held assumptions. Using lichen planus as an example, he revisits the entrenched association between diffuse lichen planus and hepatitis C. While many clinicians routinely test for hepatitis C in these patients, new data suggest the association is uncommon. More compelling, however, is the emerging link between persistent, widespread lichen planus and underlying malignancy. Seiter outlines how he thoughtfully screens for red flags and gaps in preventive care without alarming patients prematurely, reinforcing the importance of looking beyond a single lab test. The conversation then shifts to acanthosis nigricans, where traditional teaching centers on hyperglycemia and diabetes risk. Seiter explains why acanthosis nigricans is more accurately viewed as a marker of hyperinsulinemia rather than elevated A1c. He discusses incorporating HOMA-IR calculations to identify early insulin resistance, particularly in adolescents whose A1C may remain normal for years. Both clinicians stress that a “normal” A1C should not prematurely reassure patients when cutaneous markers signal metabolic risk. Additional topics include reconsidering intralesional triamcinolone as the default therapy for keloids, with discussion of emerging data on intralesional insulin as a potentially lower–adverse event alternative, and a pragmatic conversation about JAK inhibitor safety. Comparing adverse event data across agents, they emphasize individualized risk assessment, careful monitoring, and shared decision-making over reflexive fear of boxed warnings. Tune into the episode to explore how questioning assumptions, broadening your literature review, and contextualizing risk can sharpen your clinical reasoning and elevate patient care in everyday dermatology practice.

LFP battery storage pricing dropped from over $1,000 per kilowatt hour to under $100 per kilowatt hour in a few short years. That single shift is reshaping project economics across the solar and storage industry. In this episode of The Clean Power Hour, host Tim Montague sits down with Wes Kennedy, a 30-year clean energy veteran. They cover DC coupling, middle market strategy, the AI-driven energy demand surge, workforce development, and what the storage ITC means in a post-solar-ITC world.Wes Kennedy leads middle market BESS deployment at QCells. He has nearly 30 years of experience in renewables. He co-founded Namaste Solar and held senior engineering and leadership roles at SMA America, Dynapower, and Blue Planet Energy. He continues to educate the next generation of installers through his "Comprehensive Solar plus Storage" curriculum on HeatSpring.Episode HighlightsLFP batteries went from over $1,000/kWh to under $100/kWh at scale in a few years. Wes traces this shift from his time at Blue Planet Energy, where lithium iron phosphate was still considered an exotic chemistry. DC coupling turns a constrained interconnection into a 24-hour revenue asset. A 1 MW grid connection, when paired with enough solar and storage on the DC side, produces a 24 MWh revenue stream for the host while remaining a 1 MW dispatchable resource from the utility's perspective.The storage ITC still exists even though solar lost its tax credit. DC-coupled projects benefit because the battery, battery inverter, transformer, skid, and cables all qualify for the ITC. QCells is launching a 1.25 MW, 5 MWh middle market skid. All components come from non-FEOC nations with at least 70% domestic content compliance, qualifying for a 40% tax credit. The biggest storage myth is a lithium shortage. Wes points to battery recycling companies like Redwood Recycling. Recycled battery volume is a richer feedstock than the richest lithium mine on the planet. You can connect with Wes Kennedy here Wes Kennedy LinkedInQcells WebsiteHeatspring Wes Kennedy Support the showConnect with Tim Clean Power Hour Clean Power Hour on YouTubeTim on TwitterTim on LinkedIn Email tim@cleanpowerhour.com Review Clean Power Hour on Apple PodcastsThe Clean Power Hour is produced by the Clean Power Consulting Group and created by Tim Montague.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), approved July 4, 2025, made various significant changes to the low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) incentive. Among key changes, the OBBBA lowered the threshold for private activity bond (PAB) financing required to qualify for 4% LIHTCs from 50% of a development's land and building costs to 25%. On this episode of the Tax Credit Tuesday podcast, Michael Novogradac, CPA, and Novogradac partner Dirk Wallace, CPA, explore how this change is affecting financing for affordable housing development. Novogradac and Wallace provide an overview of the 25% test and PABs, including recycled PABs. The pair also discuss how states are implementing the 25% financed-by test, as well as the ways developers are overcoming the financing gap the new test created. Finally, Novogradac and Wallace conclude by discussing how to maximize net operating income (NOI) by approaching operating expenses as efficiently as possible.

If, like us, you grew up in the late 70's- 1990s, you were inundated with one new, and seemingly world-saving message. RECYCLE! Don't just throw things into the landfill; recycle what you use, reduce your use and reuse what you have! Unfortunately, Recycling Centers aren't just home to hard workers trying to help us make the world better. They are sometimes used to dispose of people. TodayI will be telling the stories of bodies found at Recycling Centers. Some accidental, some, like Stephanie Standen, were purposeful. Listener warning, as this will include the story of Baby Precious. A newborn, disposed of like garbage.To get started on your own newspapers.com journey, Go to Newspapers.com/Crime.

California Democrats have been running a recycling scam for decades, and the far-left Los Angeles Times just exposed it. Turns out 99% of your carefully sorted plastics go straight to the landfill—yet again, you've been virtue signaling for nothing. Only 1% of milk cartons actually get recycled, 2% of yogurt containers, and nothing exceeds 23%. But hey, at least you feel like a good person, right?We're breaking down the Cal Recycle report that confirms what conservatives suspected all along: recycling is an expensive hoax designed to make leftists feel morally superior while wasting everyone's time and taxpayer money. Meanwhile, California banned plastic bags at grocery stores while literally everything inside comes wrapped in plastic that ends up in the dump anyway.How much of your life have you wasted rinsing out containers for the landfill? Is anyone surprised Democrats turned environmental responsibility into political theater? What could possibly go wrong when virtue signaling becomes public policy?
