In this solo episode, Todd records on site from the brand-new podcast studio at Ninety9 Lofts and takes listeners behind the scenes of what it really takes to run a large-scale renovation successfully. Drawing from real, boots-on-the-ground experience, Todd breaks down the systems, mindset, and leadership required to keep complex renovation projects moving forward. Todd walks through the four main areas every successful renovation depends on: 1. Preplanning – Having a clear vision before work begins is critical. Todd emphasizes aligning your own vision with that of your designers and contractors so everyone is working toward the same end goal. 2. Project Management – Strong communication and leadership are essential. A good renovation requires a solid team from the top down and consistent oversight to keep everyone aligned. 3. Budget – Plan for reality, not perfection. Todd explains why realistic budgeting and contingencies matter more than trying to predict every detail. 4. Velocity – Momentum matters. Todd stresses the importance of pushing forward, closely tracking schedules, and removing obstacles quickly so delays don't derail the renovation. While all four areas are vital, Todd makes it clear that preplanning is the most important piece—setting the foundation for everything that follows. This episode is packed with practical insight for anyone looking to scale renovations, avoid costly mistakes, and execute projects with confidence and clarity.

Dan takes us to downtown Dallas, across from Union Station, to an old hotel that's changed names so many times it's like it keeps trying to hide from its past. Room 1009 doesn't seem to care what the hotel is called, though. Stories of encounters with its ghosts remain unchanged. The room allegedly has a long, sordid history of murders and suspicious deaths tied to it. Then we explore the lore of the elegant Adolphous Hotel. It's been collecting tragedy since the first month it opened. On the nineteenth floor, guests still report hearing a woman sobbing like her heart is breaking in real time. Lynze starts off with a possible Grim Reaper sighting on the night of a confirmed death. Then, we head to Key West AKA Bone Island, for a ghost tour with an actual ghost. Lastly, on a long drive home after a long week of work, a man encounters someone who seems to have wandered out of their final resting place.

If you think renovations are the “safer” or more affordable path to a healthy home, you may be setting yourself up for one of the most devastating mistakes you can make. I've watched families plan for a $20,000 remodel only to face $300,000+ in hidden damage, years of displacement, and ongoing health issues.Today, I'm sharing what 2025 taught me — why my firm focuses almost exclusively on custom new builds, what actually works, and the painful realities I see behind the scenes when renovations go wrong.In 2025 alone, my team consulted on nearly $100 million in real estate projects across 15+ states, from 1,000 sq ft homes to 30,000 sq ft estates. Less than 2% of that work involved renovations — and that number is intentional. Renovations often uncover failing plumbing, deteriorated building paper, leaking windows, and slabs without vapor barriers, turning “small projects” into unlivable homes.I walk you through a real Southern California project that spiraled from a simple remodel into a full interior gut, leaking brand-new windows, and the looming possibility of stripping the entire exterior. The emotional toll on families — especially those with sick children — is something I see every single week.I also peel back the curtain on what does work: pre-construction planning, third-party leak testing during construction (not after failure), data-driven design decisions, and builders who welcome accountability instead of resisting it. These strategies are how we prevent mold, water intrusion, and catastrophic failures — not Band-Aid fixes after the damage is doneIn today's episode, we're talking about:Why renovations fail far more often than people realizeThe hidden risks in older homes no one budgets forScope creep and how it destroys families financially and emotionallyWhy third-party testing during construction changes everythingHow proactive planning creates truly healthy homesConnect with me: Instagram

In this episode of The YM Show, we sit down with Daniel Gibbons, founder of G6 Development, to break down an incredibly real and inspiring journey through construction, entrepreneurship, and real estate.Daniel didn't start at the top. He began doing labor work for a construction company, worked his way into an electrical apprenticeship, and spent 13 years working with FPL, mastering his trade. Through patience, discipline, and calculated risk-taking, he pushed through setbacks and eventually began building homes of his own.Today, Daniel has built well over 100 homes, owns income-producing rental properties, operates his own construction and development company, and has achieved financial freedom through real estate.In this conversation, we cover: • Starting from humble beginnings in construction labor • Apprenticeships, skill-building, and long-term patience • Transitioning from tradesman to builder and developer • Using rental properties to create financial freedom • Lessons learned from building 100+ homes • What it really takes to grow in real estate and developmentThis episode is a must-watch for anyone in the trades, construction, or real estate who wants to see what's possible with discipline, consistency, and vision.⸻YouTube Chapters (Timestamps)00:00 – From Framing Houses to Becoming a Developer02:30 – Working Hurricanes & Blue-Collar Jobs to Get Ahead05:15 – Making $120K W-2… and Still Feeling Stuck07:45 – Selling the Nice Car to Change His Life10:05 – First Rental Ever: $20K Lot + Mobile Homes12:40 – Mobile Home Costs: Pre-COVID vs Today15:10 – Using a Private Lender for the First Deal17:30 – Finding Tenants & Creating First Cash Flow19:55 – Scaling Rentals While Working Full-Time22:30 – Getting the General Contractor (GC) License25:10 – Quitting the Job & Going All-In27:45 – Disaster Work That Changed Everything30:10 – Doing $1M+ in Renovations in the First Year32:40 – Reinvesting Profits vs Lifestyle Inflation35:05 – Buying Off-Market Land & Building Duplexes37:45 – Building 12 Units in Under 4 Months (Real Numbers)40:15 – Construction Loans vs Permanent Financing42:40 – Land, Zoning & Entitlements Explained45:05 – What Cities Want (And How to Work With Them)47:10 – Cap Rates, Cash Flow & Underwriting Deals49:30 – Advice for Young Guys With Limited Capital51:10 – “The Only Thing Stopping You Is You”⸻

Everyone keeps asking the same question: Is hotel development slowing down? The global numbers say something very different — and far more nuanced. I checked in with Bruce Ford of Lodging Econometrics for a worldwide pipeline update that cuts through assumptions and looks at what's really happening across regions, segments, and timelines. On #NoVacancyNews, Bruce explains why room counts remain historically high, why developers deliberately push openings into later years, and why renovations and conversions now matter as much as ground-up construction. This conversation focuses less on hype and more on how capital actually behaves when markets tighten. A big thanks to Actabl — Actabl gives you the power to profit. Visit Actabl.com.

Chesapeake Bay officials elected Gov. Josh Shapiro to lead a regional agreement to help clean and restore the waterway. he first-term Democrat will take the reins at a tumultuous time for the forty-year-old partnership. Gov. Josh Shapiro says he’s going to break Pennsylvania from its history of taking a BACKSEAT to Chesapeake Bay conservation. The group Shapiro will lead FAILED to meet many of the goals it set for its members more than ten years ago. Like CUTTING POLLUTION and BOOSTING WILDLIFE along the watershed. But members extended the group’s deadlines to meet its goals to 2040. Some environmental groups are criticizing the new plan as being UNAMBITIOUS. But many say they’re hopeful Shapiro’s leadership will help push the group to act more quickly. Temple University’s Kornberg School of Dentistry is looking to open its rural dental education center and clinic at the site of a former Rite Aid in downtown Tamaqua. Temple has partnered with the Tamaqua Area Community Partnership on the project. The center awaits approval by the Temple University Board of Trustees. The proposed center would have 24 chairs and will host 20 dental students on the rural dentistry track. Dental students will complete the final two years of dental school at the Tamaqua campus and provide dental services to residents of Schuylkill, Carbon and Luzerne counties. Students will live in downtown Tamaqua, in an old department store that will be renovated into apartments. Temple told WVIA earlier this year that the dental school will cover students’ housing costs, which will be financially supported by tuition. The clinic also is expected to create about 20 new jobs. Temple’s dentistry school also started discussions with Lehigh Carbon Community College (LCCC) about a dental hygiene program that will train six to 10 students. Argall chaired a public hearing through the Senate Majority Policy Committee about dental care shortages in rural Pennsylvania. Renovations on both the education center and student housing are expected to begin before the end of this year. Officials have said the center is expected to open for the Fall semester in September 2026. Constellation Energy’s project to restart a nuclear reactor at the former Three Mile Island plant in Dauphin County is getting a boost from the federal government in the form of a one billion dollar loan. The energy produced there will power Microsoft AI data centers The project has drawn some opposition from the community surrounding the site, where a partial meltdown more than 40 years ago caused the nation’s worst nuclear power disaster. Supporters have pointed to potential economic benefits such as construction jobs. And Constellation has said the plant will help offset data centers’ demand on the power grid. A company representative also says the taxpayer-backed loan will be repaid with full interest. It’s being financed through the Trump administration’s Energy Dominance Financing Program focused on expanding the country’s energy infrastructure for the Artificial Intelligence industry.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for November 20th Publish Date: November 20th PRE-ROLL: SUGAR HILL ICE SKATING From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, November 20th and Happy birthday to Bobby Kennedy I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Lawmakers consider paring tax credits and exemptions to offset income tax cuts Piedmont Eastside and Piedmont Oncology welcome medical oncologist Sami Ali Gwinnett commissioners to issue bonds for Gas South Arena renovations Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on rice All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: STRAND THEATRE STORY 1: Lawmakers consider paring tax credits and exemptions to offset income tax cuts Georgia lawmakers are seriously considering wiping out the state income tax—$16 billion in revenue—and replacing it by slashing $30 billion in tax credits and exemptions. “It’s not if, it’s when,” said Sen. Blake Tillery, who’s leading the charge. He called it a move for “competitiveness.” Supporters like economist Arthur Laffer praised states like Tennessee for thriving without income taxes, calling it “really cool” not to file returns. But critics, like Sen. Nan Orrock, warned it could hit low-income families and retirees hardest, especially if sales taxes rise. The debate? Far from settled. STORY 2: Piedmont Eastside and Piedmont Oncology welcome medical oncologist Sami Ali Piedmont Eastside Medical Center and Piedmont Oncology are thrilled to welcome Dr. Sami Ali to their team. Dr. Ali, a board-certified hematologist and oncologist, brings years of experience treating patients with lung cancer, colorectal cancer, blood disorders, and more. Before joining Piedmont, Dr. Ali spent eight years at The Oncology Institute in Los Angeles, where he provided personalized care, led treatment plans, and contributed to clinical research. “We’re excited to have him,” said Larry Ebert, Piedmont Eastside’s CEO. “His expertise will help us expand cancer care in Gwinnett County.” Dr. Ali is now accepting new patients. For appointments, visit Piedmont.org or call 678-639-3950. STORY 3: Gwinnett commissioners to issue bonds for Gas South Arena renovations Gwinnett County commissioners took a big step Tuesday toward funding a major facelift for the 23-year-old Gas South Arena. The plan? Revenue bonds—up to $172 million worth—to cover renovations like new seating, upgraded security, better concessions, and even a shiny new parking deck. The total cost? Somewhere between $170 and $176 million. The county might chip in $40 million to ease the debt load, according to Financial Services Director Russell Royal. What’s changing? Think premium seating, revamped suites, modernized restrooms, grab-and-go food, and a high-tech security plaza. Oh, and the roof, HVAC, and electrical systems? All getting replaced. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 4: Georgia Gwinnett College celebrates International Education Week Georgia Gwinnett College turned International Education Week into a colorful, culture-packed celebration that brought the world to campus. From Nov. 10, students and staff dove into 14 events—everything from global traditions to study-abroad opportunities. The highlight? A visit from Lithuania’s Consul General, DOH-vee-dahs Dovydas shpo-KOW-skas Špokauskas, who spoke on diplomacy and security, thanks to professor DOH-vee-leh Dovilė boo-DREE-teh Budryte. Korean culture stole the show at Seoul Connections, with K-Pop, snacks, and games filling the room. And the International Thanksgiving? A feast of global flavors, live music, and a cultural fashion show. The week wrapped with poetry, music, and a reminder: the world’s waiting—go explore it. STORY 5: Gwinnett waiving tax penalties for residents impacted by government shutdown Gwinnett County is throwing a lifeline to residents hit hard by the recent federal shutdown. On Tuesday, commissioners gave Tax Commissioner Denise Mitchell the green light to waive penalties and interest on late ad valorem taxes for those furloughed or who lost SNAP benefits during the chaos. “Georgia law lets me waive penalties for reasonable cause,” Mitchell explained. “And over the past few weeks, I’ve heard from residents struggling to pay their bills because of the shutdown.” This doesn’t erase the taxes—just the late fees. To qualify, folks need proof of furlough or lost benefits, and the waiver only covers bills due during or shortly after the shutdown. We’ll be right back.

The federal shutdown is set to extend past the one month mark. The longer the shutdown goes, the more Americans could feel its impact. The Department of Agriculture announced that it would not use emergency funding to keep supplying the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) - also known as food stamps - after November 1st. Halting SNAP payments would affect more than 40 million Americans. Many federal workers, including air traffic controllers, are working without pay while the shutdown battle continues. With the holiday season approaching, airline travel could take a major hit. Will these economic pressure points jolt Congress into action? Construction on a new grand ballroom at the White House has begun. Renovations at the ‘People's House' are nothing new. So why has the demolition and remodel of the East Wing drawn so much attention? One factor could be the stream of private donations funding the project. KCRW discusses how those payments and the access that comes with them puts one of Washington's biggest problems on display.New York City's mayoral race hits the ballot next week, along with a number of elections across the country. We'll discuss what to watch for as a precursor to next year's midterms, and answer one listener's question about the future of the Voting Rights Act.

Mollie Hemingway, Editor-in-Chief at The Federalist and Fox News Contributor, joined The Guy Benson Show today to discuss the Democrats' meltdown over President Trump's White House remodeling, despite the fact that previous remodeling efforts have happened over the White House's history. Hemingway and Benson also noted that the redesign the elegant overhaul is privately funded, not taxpayer-financed. Hemingway explained why the redesign was needed, noting how cramped and outdated parts of the building had become. She also weighed in on a disturbing new "ICE tracker" project from the left that publicly exposes the locations of federal immigration agents, even as attacks against ICE personnel have already turned deadly.
