Charles Stankievech is an artist, a writer, and an academic. He teaches at the University of Toronto, and his art takes him into some of the most remote landscapes on earth. Places like CFS Alert, the northernmost permanently inhabited place in the world. He describes the Arctic as occupying two parallel spaces in our cultural imagination: one built on myth and fantasy, and another grounded in harsh, physical reality. He says that most people will never set foot there, which means our understanding of it comes from ideas rooted in medieval tales of magnetic mountains, science-fiction fortresses carved out of ice, or the general sense that it's a blank, unreachable expanse. But beneath that fantasy is a real landscape shaped by nature and human activity. One of Charles' early Arctic projects was about the Distant Early Warning Line, a network of Cold War radar stations built across the Arctic to detect incoming Soviet bombers. He began thinking about how the remnants of that global conflict were already entangled with what he called an emerging “Warm War,” where rising temperatures and melting sea ice would turn buffer zones into contested shipping routes and resource frontiers. Sound is one of his primary tools for understanding these places. He says that what you hear often tells a different story than what you see, and so his work uses sound to help people experience aspects of a place that visuals alone can't capture. That instinct connects back to his own life — long days spent alone in the Rockies with his dog, camping, hiking, and snowboarding in the backcountry. Those solitary experiences were a refuge, a place where existential questions emerged naturally. It's where he learned that when you confront the world on your own terms, you gain a clearer understanding of yourself and the people around you.

What if your next 1,000 hires didn't require chaos? In this episode, Doug C. Brown is joined by Pranav Dalal, founder and Chief Disruption Officer of Office Beacon, to talk about what it really takes to scale global teams—without giving up control. Pranav grew Office Beacon to 5,500+ full-time employees across 4 countries… without outside capital or “unicorn” hires. What made it possible? Systems, not superstars. Inside the episode: ✅ How to structure remote teams for scale ✅ Why bootstrapping forces better decisions ✅ How opposite thinking leads to competitive advantage ✅ The simple habits that keep you from overextending If your business depends on 1:1 sales, offshore teams, or scaling operations—this episode is your blueprint.
In this episode of Owned and Operated, John Wilson sits down with Aizik Zimerman of Jay Blanton Plumbing (Chicago) to break down the remote staffing playbook that most home service operators still aren't using.John and Aizik start with a real-world story from a contractor event—how one company allegedly went from $0 to $6M using yard signs, and how Aizik tested it immediately (including the “don't put them on every corner” lesson).Then they go deep on what actually drives scale: building a remote-first, offshore-heavy team that works in the real world. Aizik shares how his business grew to 140 employees with 50+ overseas team members, and how he structures offshore hiring across accounting, install coordination, marketing, recruiting, dispatch, and fleet coordination.They break down the “hub and spoke” model: keep your US leaders focused on thinking and decision-making, then build specialized offshore roles to handle execution—so your business moves faster without bloating payroll.If you're trying to expand coverage, build specialization early, or you've wondered whether recruiting + dispatch + ops coordination can really be offshored, this episode is the blueprint.What You'll LearnWhy “if it can be done remote, it can be done from anywhere”The hub & spoke model: US leaders + offshore execution podsHow Aizik offshores technician recruiting (and why it's a massive unlock)Which roles are easiest vs hardest to offshore (CSR vs dispatch/install coordination)How to reduce “overemployment” risk with real systems (Zoom rooms, accountability layers)Why you should default to remote-first hiring at any size—even at $500K/year

Ryan Connolly, Head of Marketing at Hidden Iceland, shares how his company transformed from serving all market segments to focusing exclusively on premium and luxury private tours. The pivotal decision to cut small group tours (which represented 50% of departures but only 10% of revenue) allowed Hidden Iceland to grow by 5% while improving quality and profitability. Ryan discusses how relationship marketing drives 70% of their bookings directly (without OTAs), why they lead with education when working with travel advisors, and how PR outperforms paid advertising for luxury sales. He also reveals his background working in finance before a three year journey across 40 countries led him to become a glacier guide in Iceland, where he met his wife on a tour and co-founded the company with two partners.Top 10 Takeaways for Tour Operators1. Cut unprofitable segments ruthlesslySmall group tours accounted for 50% of Hidden Iceland's departures but only 10% of revenue. After eliminating that segment, they grew 5% by focusing resources on premium and luxury private tours where margins are higher.2. Partner with competitors instead of viewing them as threatsWhen customers can't afford Hidden Iceland's luxury pricing, Ryan personally introduces them to partner companies that serve the budget segment. This maintains relationships and positions them as helpful experts rather than pushy salespeople.3. PR drives better ROI than paid ads for high ticket salesOver 450 articles in publications like Condé Nast, Forbes, and CNN have driven 70% direct bookings. For luxury trips ($20,000+), earned media builds trust better than Facebook or Google ads.4. Lead with personal story in first customer contactRyan's initial email starts: "Hello, my name is Ryan. I'm originally Scottish. I've lived in Iceland since 2016. I originally trained as a glacier guide..." This builds immediate trust and differentiates from transactional competitors.5. Educate travel advisors. Don't just sell to themHidden Iceland runs webinars teaching agents about Iceland's seasons, distances, and what each time of year offers. Not sales pitches. The education first approach builds meaningful advisor relationships that generate 30% of bookings.6. Vet activity partners on safety and environmental standardsBefore partnering with snowmobile companies, helicopter tours, or other providers, Hidden Iceland shares their own safety and environmental policies first, then asks partners to reciprocate. This creates collaboration, not just transactions.7. Train guides to be themselves, not follow scriptsInstead of teaching guides what to say at each stop, Hidden Iceland tells them: "Be yourself in the most authentic way possible and create genuine connections." This leads to reviews that praise the guide more than the destination.8. Choose conferences strategically. Avoid the herdRyan skips luxury travel conferences if more than 2 or 3 other Iceland companies will attend. Less competition means easier differentiation and more meaningful conversations with travel advisors.9. Keep the sales process low tech and high touchDespite having a CRM (LEMACS), Hidden Iceland puts key itinerary details in the body of emails and offers phone calls early. For luxury clients, human connection trumps slick automation.10. Build the business with partners you trust implicitlyRyan emphasizes: "Don't set up a company with anyone you don't trust inherently and that you believe will communicate effectively during the hardest times." Through pandemics and volcanic eruptions, Hidden Iceland's three owners have never shouted at each other because they chose partnership carefully.

In a post capitalist society with equal opportunity and no need to work for all citizens, where does inherent human nature drive people? Do they rise to greater heights or become lazy and goalless? Are people still in control of their own fate when AI teach the children, AI provide a police force, and AI look after the mentally ill?

MY NEWSLETTER - https://nikolas-newsletter-241a64.beehiiv.com/subscribeJoin me, Nik (https://x.com/CoFoundersNik), as I interview Peter Lohmann (https://x.com/pslohmann). In this episode, we dive into the unsexy but incredibly lucrative world of property management with Peter Lohmann, the founder of RL Property Management in Columbus, Ohio.Peter reveals how he scaled his business from zero to nearly 700 units and $3 million in revenue after leaving his job as an engineer. Peter also shares his controversial advice on why you should start, not buy, a management company if you are new to business, and details the "operational nightmare" you must navigate to reach success.We even discuss the massive opportunity for exits, where Private Equity firms are paying 1.5x to 2x top-line revenue for established companies.Questions This Episode Answers:1. What are the target benchmarks for revenue per door and profit margins in a successful property management business?2. Why does Peter recommend building a company from scratch rather than acquiring an existing one?3. What specific marketing strategies—from Google Business Profiles to meetups—would Peter use to get 100 doors in just six months?4. At what unit count does a property management company typically become self-sustaining enough to hire full-time staff?5. How are Private Equity groups valuing these businesses, and what multiples can you expect if you sell?Enjoy the conversation!__________________________Love it or hate it, I'd love your feedback.Please fill out this brief survey with your opinion or email me at nik@cofounders.com with your thoughts.__________________________MY NEWSLETTER: https://nikolas-newsletter-241a64.beehiiv.com/subscribeSpotify: https://tinyurl.com/5avyu98yApple: https://tinyurl.com/bdxbr284YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/nikonomicsYT__________________________This week we covered:00:00 Highlights00:27 Introduction to Property Management00:54 Revenue and Profit Margins02:29 Understanding Clients and Tenants03:06 Key Responsibilities of Property Managers03:37 Profiles of Property Owners04:29 Why Hire a Property Management Company?05:41 Payment Structures and Fees06:34 Company History and Growth10:50 Remote and Local Operations16:16 Starting a Property Management Business19:02 Finding Your First Clients19:29 Early Challenges and Strategies20:47 Benchmarks in Property Management21:50 The Importance of Community23:27 Scaling Your Business30:57 Operational Complexities32:21 Opportunities in Property Management35:38 Conclusion and Final Thoughts

Dr. Waqaas Al-Siddiq, CEO and Founder of Biotricity, has designed a direct-to-consumer service to shift healthcare from a reactive to a preventive model by simplifying and accelerating access to remote cardiac screening. Applying AI to sift through patient data allows the cardiologist to focus on clinically relevant information and to identify sporadic, intermittent heart issues that are often difficult to detect using traditional heart screening techniques. Waqaas predicts an expansion of specialized solutions using AI and large datasets to support clinicians and patients in the drive to identify early signs of disease. Waqaas explains, "The thing that we've been focused on is, as you know, heart issues. We've talked extensively about heart issues, which are the number one killer. And so what we've done now is we've collected this massive dataset, but we're trying to look at the nuances of those needles in a haystack. So it's not about the individuals who have arrhythmias to catch. It's about the ones who are very, very sporadic and intermittent, something that happens once every four months. Is there a way to predict that? Can we grab additional data from the patient about their environment, about their history, to get a more holistic view of the patient? " "Often, with a massive amount of data in a set, you can get into prediction, but you need a more holistic view. Our focus has now been on now that we've captured 90% of the scenarios, the last 10% are incredibly complicated, and how do we leverage that? How do we use our data to basically get into those specialized nuances?" #HeartSecure #hearthealth #preventative #heartdiease #healthyheart #selfcare #healthylifestyle #healthtestathome #HeartYourHeart #Biotricity #CareInnovation #HealthcareAI #Bioheart #Cardiology biotricity.com Download the transcript here

Whether you're a parent navigating IEPs, a teacher searching for better ways to reach struggling students or anyone who wants to understand what it really takes to support kids with special needs, this conversation will give you practical tools and a hefty dose of reality without the sugar coating.More info, resources & ways to connect - https://www.tacosfallapart.com/podcast-live-show/podcast-guests/josh-henryJosh Henry didn't set out to work with special needs kids. At 14, he was just helping out at a church event when a five-year-old girl with cerebral palsy latched onto him and wouldn't let go. That moment changed everything.Now Josh coaches adaptive sports through an organization called Magic while working full-time at Amazon. He spent five years in the school system as a special ed aide and he gets it in a way most people don't. He was a special ed kid himself.Growing up with dyslexia and severe ADHD meant Josh knew what it felt like to watch classmates finish tests while he was still on question three. He knew the panic of thinking he looked dumb. He also knew what it felt like when a teacher finally said "You're not behind them. You just learn differently."That's the mentality he brings to every kid he works with now whether they're in wheelchairs learning hockey or struggling through reading assignments two grade levels behind.The challenges haven't changed much since Josh was in school but the resources have gotten better. Weighted lap bands. Yoga balls instead of chairs. Fidget tools. Speech-to-text software that turns a failing writer into an A student. The key is knowing your kids well enough to know what they need and when to push versus when to pull out a board game and just let them breathe.Remote learning has made everything harder. Josh predicts we're going to see a surge in kids qualifying for IEPs simply because they fell so far behind during the pandemic chaos. When every teacher had a different system and parents were trying to work full-time jobs while monitoring Zoom calls, it was a perfect storm for kids who were already struggling.His advice for parents is NOT to try to be Superman or Superwoman. Find resources. Ask for help. Google is your friend. Organizations like Educational Parents Unlimited exist in every state to help parents understand IEPs and advocate for their kids. The best part of working with special needs kids according to Josh is the attitude. A kid with Down syndrome giving you an unexpected hug and saying "I love you Mr. Henry" makes every frustrating tantrum worth it. Hearing a friend's autistic son making happy sounds in the background of a Fortnite session reminds him that life's really not that bad.The worst part, though... Also the attitude. Some days kids come in ready to work. Other days they're throwing themselves on the ground because their dad didn't come home last night and no amount of patience is going to make them learn their multiplication tables.What Josh hopes every kid takes away from working with him isn't math or reading skills. It's knowing how to use the tools available to them. Because not everyone's going to college and that's okay. But everyone needs to know how to ask for help and where to find it when they need it.

We build loyalty and careers.” “Our average ticket nearly doubled after bundling, cross-selling, and upselling—systematically.” “If your sales process takes ten steps, automate nine. Free yourself for what matters.” “Company culture isn't an add-on.

When President Trump signed the bill to reopen the government on November 12, he also enacted a law that will—unless changed within a year—effectively ban hemp-derived THC beverages and other products nationwide. Virtually overnight, the government had moved to close the book on a broadly popular industry worth an estimated $30 billion—even as adults in many states can, for now, still legally shop for their hemp beverages alongside beer and wine. As President and Founder of the Hemp Beverage Alliance, Christopher Lackner represents brewers, distributors, retailers, can manufacturers, and others who have a stake in these drinks that have become increasingly mainstream. His focus now is on lobbying for any outcome that can keep this new industry on its feet, grounded in sensible regulations and responsible business practices. In this episode, Lackner and host Jamie Bogner discuss: how the 2018 Farm Bill loophole led to a lucrative, popular industry that became “no big deal” why sensible limits on THC in beverages—perhaps 10 milligrams per 12 ounces—may be a way forward why hemp beverages don't belong in marijuana dispensaries the need for rules that keep out bad actors why skeptics of hemp-derived THC products should pay a visit to Minnesota how an all-you-can-drink hemp-beverage fest became the chillest affair ever what brewers and consumers who support hemp beverages should be doing now And more.

PREVIEW — Conrad Black — Canada's Strategic "Ring of Fire" Mineral Wealth. Black describes the "Ring of Fire," a geographically remote, mineral-rich region situated approximately 500 miles north of Toronto, containing strategically critical resources including gold, copper, and base metals essential for global manufacturing and technological advancement. Black acknowledges that the region currently lacks transportation and processing infrastructure necessary for large-scale extraction operations. Black emphasizes that elevated global demand for strategic minerals is catalyzing unprecedented cooperation between Canadian government authorities and private sector mining enterprises to develop extraction, processing, and export capabilities satisfying international market requirements and positioning Canada as a critical resource supplier. 1909
