Tuesday is occasionally reserved for the bizarre, and we've got that for you today. The CBS Radio Workshop was an experimental program, often with programs that defied conventional tropes. Originally broadcast in April 1956, "The Record Collectors" is an over-the-top satire hosted by John Dehner. The program introduces two eccentric (and fictional) record collectors who are convinced that music peaked with 78 RPM records. As they spar with real-life musical guests including Margaret Whiting and Lynn Murray, they take aim at all the latest innovations of that day, including high fidelity sound, LP records, and just about everything else.

Welcome to Glenn Robison's Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can't not tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78 RPM records of the 1920s and '30s. Do you know who these chaps are? The fact that I am describing them as “chaps” gives the hint that they are British. And in fact they are the British singing duo of Bob and Alf Pearson. You’ll find out all about them in the final segment of this week’s show. But before that, you hear other birthday segments for Aubrey Stauffer, Adolph Hofner and Billy Hays. Billy Hays actually gets two birthday segments! One for the real Billy Hays and one for Billy Hays used as a pseudonym by Sam Lanin’s Famous Players! There's lots of great music and interesting information so set aside an hour with your favorite beverage and prepare to be transported back to a different–and we think better–musical era.

This week on Classic Vinyl Podcast, Justin and Tyler listen to and review The Edgar Winter Group and Frankenstein. "Frankenstein" by The Edgar Winter Group is a groundbreaking 1973 instrumental rock single famous for its synthesizer riff and innovative tape-splicing construction. It was originally an extended jam session before being tightened into a 45 RPM edit that hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Give it a listen and let us know what you think.

If oxygen is good for bacteria, why don't engineers simply spin RBC discs faster?At first glance, it seems obvious: faster rotation should mean more oxygen, more bacterial activity, and better wastewater treatment. Yet real-world Rotating Biological Contactors (RBCs) operate at surprisingly low speeds—typically just a few revolutions per minute.So what's stopping engineers from cranking up the speed?In this episode, we dive deep into one of the most overlooked questions in Environmental Engineering and uncover the delicate balancing act between oxygen transfer, biofilm growth, shear stress, energy consumption, and treatment efficiency.You'll discover why an RBC is much more than a rotating disc, how bacteria experience alternating cycles of air and wastewater, why too much oxygen can create unexpected problems, and how a tiny change in rotational speed can dramatically alter the entire biological ecosystem growing on the discs.This is not a discussion about motors and RPM.It's a story about fluid mechanics, microbiology, mass transfer, and the decades of research hidden behind a machine that appears deceptively simple.
Fusion has been “ten years away” for decades — but one corner of the field just crossed a line that changes the conversation. In December 2022, Lawrence Livermore National Lab's National Ignition Facility achieved ignition: a self-sustaining fusion reaction that produced net energy. And they've repeated it.So what happens when you take the only fusion approach that's proven to work, and focus less on new physics… and more on building the industrial supply chain to do it again and again, cheaply and reliably? You get a field trip!In part one of a two-part field trip to Livermore, California, Molly visits Inertia Energy's “House of Fusion” to meet two of the company's co-founders:Jeff Lawson (yes, that Jeff Lawson — founder of Twilio and majority owner of The Onion) on the business case for commercializing ignition, and why Inertia thinks the economics are finally ready.Mike Dunn, former Lawrence Livermore power-plant designer and Stanford professor, on what it takes to turn a lab breakthrough into a power plant — from a gigawatt-scale “engine” that can follow renewables on the grid, to building a million precision fuel targets a day.We talk about:What “ignition” actually means — and why it's different from “fusion someday”Why Inertia is starting with the only physics regime that's been proven to produce net fusion energyThe two big bottlenecks: high-power diode lasers and mass-manufactured fusion targetsHow scaling semiconductor manufacturing could drive laser costs down (and why “1,000x” matters)What a fusion target is: a tiny fuel capsule inside a miniature “oven” (and why lead beats gold for economics)Why a fusion plant looks more like a high-RPM engine than a one-off experiment — and how that changes everythingPotential early markets beyond electricity: high-temperature process heat for steel, cement, and fertilizerWhat it looks like to build a fusion company in Silicon Valley: Apple/Waymo-style process engineers, high-end metrology, and a Nerf gun used as a stand-in for high-speed target trackingThunderdome.

Allen Nejah, CEO and System Solution Architect of SunMan Engineering, is driven by a lifelong passion for aerospace, invention, and solving complex engineering problems. From dreaming of becoming an astronaut as a child to working with major aerospace, defense, automotive, medical, robotics, IoT, and semiconductor organizations, Allen has built a career around turning ambitious technical ideas into real-world systems. We explore The Allen Nejah Engineering Framework — Live with Integrity, Be Intensely Curious, Get Organized, Plan Every Baby Step, and Learn from Mistakes — a practical mindset for building breakthrough technologies with discipline and resilience. Allen explains why integrity must exist not only in business relationships but also in the engineering itself, how complex projects must be broken into testable steps, and why curiosity, visualization, planning, and iteration are essential to solving problems across industries. He also shares the story behind InfiniGear, his AI-powered adaptive transmission system, and the healthcare technology inspired by his mother's experience in assisted care. — Building the Connected Car Before the iPhone with Allen Nejah Good day, dear listeners. Steve Preda here with the Management Blueprint Podcast, and my guest today is Allen Nejah, the CEO and System Solution Architect of SunMan Engineering, dedicated to providing customers with high-quality, on-time engineering and on-budget solutions for their product development and prototyping needs. Allen, welcome to the show. Yes, that is correct. Great to have you on the show. And I’d like to ask you my favorite first question: What is your personal ‘Why,’ and how are you manifesting it in your business? So Steve, first I want to thank you for having me on your podcast. I really appreciate your time and interest. Of course. As a kid, for whatever reason, I always wanted to have an airplane manufacturing company, an aircraft manufacturing company—something I always wanted to have. And I always wanted to be an astronaut. As a matter of fact, I studied aerospace and mechanical engineering with the dream of being an astronaut, going to fly and all that. So that’s kind of something that’s still in my pocket and that I still want to do. From there, it kind of pushed me in this direction. And yeah, now I work with a number of different companies in the aerospace industry. I work with the Air Force. I’ve worked with Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and a number of others. And I work on both space and aviation projects that really kind of bring my dream to life. So I still haven’t gone to outer space yet, but I still have a little more time. Yeah. Elon Musk is promising a million people, and his bonus is linked to putting a million people on Mars as the first colony. So there may still be room there. They need a lot of us to go there, trust me. Well, actually, we’re going to do a lot of activities on the Moon first, and then from there, I’m sure they’re going to be looking for older people, older men, to do some tasks over there. And I’d volunteer to go. You may be familiar with the Mars trilogy—Red Mars, Green Mars, Blue Mars. It talks about people moving to Mars and how they terraform it. And then they figure out how to extend life to 150, 200 years. So if that works out, then maybe there’s another lifetime to be lived on Mars. Yeah. I definitely believe that we will end up living on other planets, for sure. I see that very clearly. It could be 50 years or more before we actually become a space-based civilization. But the Moon has already started, right? We’re going to be there in the next 5 to 10 years, trust me. So anyway, I’m very excited about that. Yes. Yeah, it is very exciting. What I’m looking for on this podcast—what makes it kind of unique—is that I am a junkie for frameworks and mental models. We are almost 400 episodes in, and every episode has a different mental model that our guest comes up with or shares. So think about something that helped you build your business, or maybe helped you develop your products, or how you work with your engineers, or how you work with clients. So think about something that has three to five steps or three to five aspects that create a result. That’s very clear to me. Those are the key things for any successful person. First of all, honestly, you have to be interested. You have to be in “go” mode. You cannot push somebody to start building something, like a building or actual construction, if their mind is not into it. The very first thing is, it’s got to be you. That’s number one, right? And you know it. Definitely organization is a very key factor for me. Being organized, being detail-oriented—that’s something that is super, super important. Planning and organization make a huge difference in whatever you do, right? And most importantly, integrity. I mean, that’s number one. That’s number one, number two, number three, number four—all of it. So integrity is all of it. No matter what you do, if there’s no integrity, people will walk away from you. At the beginning, every business makes mistakes, and they learn and so on. So don’t beat yourself up. It’s okay. You make a mistake, you learn from it, and then you don’t do it again, right? Learn from it. So yeah, I would say those are at least three. If anything else comes to mind, I definitely will share it with you. But the most important things are integrity, organization, and clear planning based on knowledge. Not just planning for the hell of it, but planning based on understanding what you’re doing. That’s important. Integrity comes into your personality. It comes into the quality of the work you do. It comes into the engineering you do. It comes into all of that, right? Even in engineering, it’s not only on the personal level that integrity has to be there. On the engineering level, integrity has to be there too. Whatever you do, you’ve got to make sure it’s working. One of the things we learned the hard way after 35 or 36 years is that it’s very important to have the knowledge base and to do things in a very organized way. And that’s kind of part of my personality. If I’m not confident about the end result, I don’t even commit to it. I’ve got to see it in my mind. Whatever problem comes up, if I don’t see the solution in my mind, I won’t even commit to it. It comes back to quality, integrity, and all of that. And I guess what I was going to say earlier is that everything that we do—as part of, again, the quality and integrity I mentioned—is that we have a lot of baby steps built into the process. That’s what I wanted to say earlier. So for every step, the whole plan is split into, I don’t know, tens, hundreds, or thousands of different steps and branches. Because technology is not one thing. It’s usually a combination of different sciences. So mechanical engineering, electronics, material science, firmware, AI—those are all different types of expertise. And you’ve got to bring them all together. And for all of those baby steps, you’ve got to have some sort of test at the end of each step before you move on to the next one. Iteration. Yeah. So, okay, what I’m hearing is integrity is number one. And then curiosity, perhaps. So curiosity is this driving force. Visualization is important. I’m thinking about Einstein, who said that imagination is more important than knowledge because imagination is infinite, while knowledge encircles the world. I think it was something like that. So visualization is important. Get organized. Do thorough planning. And learn from mistakes. Yes. Absolutely. Okay. That’s great. So what do you call this? Is this the Allen Nejah Framework, or what’s it called? One more thing. One more thing. Again, that’s kind of under the umbrella of integrity. So I have two families. It’s one family. I have a family at home, and I have a family at work. And believe it or not—and you already know this—we all spend more time with our family at work than with our family at home. That’s true. It’s true for me. It’s true for a lot of people. You go to work, I don’t know, from 8:00, 9:00, or 10:00 in the morning until 5:00, 6:00, 7:00, 8:00, or 9:00 at night. That’s almost 12 hours. And by the time you go home at 5:00, 6:00, or 7:00, what? You spend two hours with your family, maybe three hours at most, and then it’s back to work. So the team is part of my family, and truly it is part of my family. Those are the first group of people, the first group of associates, that you have to take care of. You have to be a brother to them, be a friend to them, be a father to them, be a mother to them. Seriously, it’s all about human interaction. It’s all about, “I like you, I don’t like you,” and it goes from there. “I feel good about you. I don’t feel good about you.” And so it’s very important to have those relationships in your business, or whatever it is you do. For me, all our people, all our employees—even from 35 years ago—are still in touch with us. I have kids who came through as junior-high interns, then high-school interns, then university students, even master’s degree students. Now they’re 40 years old. And we’re still in touch. So I’m in touch with hundreds of engineers and people that I’ve worked with over the past 35 years. And that’s a lot of value. That’s the biggest asset. Yeah. Basically, they call it a school. You create a school, right? Your own professional school. That’s wonderful. So tell me about this special gear called InfiniGear. How is it special? How did you come up with it, and how is it being used? It’s an interesting question. First of all, let me explain to you very quickly what I-Gear is. So I-Gear is an AI robotic adaptive gearbox, or transmission, and that’s a mechanical transmission. It’s not an electronic transmission. It’s an actual mechanical gearbox that goes into any machinery or equipment. I mean, obviously, the one that everybody can relate to immediately is cars. Every car—not EV cars, but every car—has a transmission. A transmission usually is bigger than the engine. It’s heavier than the engine. It’s the guy that goes through all the center of the car, takes all that center, okay? That’s it—a transmission. It’s big, it’s heavy. By the way, it’s amazing how it works. It’s absolutely amazing how it works if anybody gets into a transmission and sees all of it. There are about 300 to 400 gear sets in there. There are about six or seven clutches. There’s about 3,000 to 4,000 parts in a standard transmission. So that’s why it’s so big and so heavy. The efficiency is so low because all these gears have to be interacting with each other. As a matter of fact, believe it or not, the transmission efficiency is only 50%. So it’s actually as low as you can get. But you have to have a transmission in the car. If you have no transmission in the car—I’m talking about ICE cars with an engine—they’re not even able to drive because the engine has no initial power and no initial RPM. The AI transmission, the robotic transmission that I have invented, and that we have developed over five to seven years— Since 2017 or ’18 we’ve been working on it. It’s a gearbox that has only two gears versus 200 to 300 gears, and it’s one-fourth or one-fifth of the size. And also, while your standard transmission has five or six or seven or eight gears in your car, this has unlimited gears, okay? And it’s AI, so it can see what’s going on with the road, what the weather is, and all combinations of conditions. If you’re going onto a hillside, it’s already going to shift for you, so it saves energy. So that’s what we have developed. It’s a robotic transmission. Right now, we’re actually talking to the U.S. Army, and they have some interest. We are at a very initial stage with them. And it’s kind of difficult to bring it into the market because it’s a safety factor, and there are a lot of requirements and tests that have to go into it before we can actually get it into trucks and cars. To summarize the benefit, if you put that transmission into an EV, we can increase the range by 40%, which is huge. A company that can improve a battery by 1% gets millions of dollars thrown at it. Once we can prove that this is working and pass some tests and so on, it’s going to be very huge. Wow. When do you expect this to happen? I’m hoping within the next two years. Hopefully, by the end of those two years, we make it home and get it into cars and trucks and commercialize it. Then you will turn into a unicorn—a big unicorn, right? Yeah. Again, EVs are only one application. There are wind turbines, tanks, boats, some aircraft, and helicopters. A helicopter’s transmission is half the size of the helicopter itself, so the weight and everything else become very significant. So if we can eliminate that weight and size, we can gain a lot. Especially in vehicles, it makes a huge difference and all that. Wow. That’s probably something that drones would benefit from too. Yeah. It’s mind-boggling. So what drives growth in your business other than your inventions? So at SunMan Engineering, we have two arms. One arm is that we provide engineering services, product architecture, and product development to other companies—small companies, mid-size companies, and bigger companies like IBM, Sony, Samsung, and Apple. We have about 300 or 400 of those clients. And we also work with government agencies and contractors like Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and Kaiser Electronics, just to name a few. We have also had contracts directly with the Army and the Navy in the past. And that’s what we’re trying to do now—to gain some of those projects again. And InfiniGear, the I-Gear, could be a project that, fingers crossed, we’d be working on with the U.S. Army. So that’s one arm of what we do. The other arm is that we develop new technologies. We develop them, work on them, and then license them, or let our clients utilize them in some of their projects through partnerships and so on. So you’re a service company as well as a product company? Yes. We are a systems and product company. We’re considered a systems and product company, yes. Now, do you call this systems integration? In the IT world, they used to call it systems integration when you had different systems and— We are more than systems integrators. Systems integrators buy different technologies and put them together. It’s still engineering, don’t get me wrong. Yeah. You still have to engineer everything and put it together. But what we do is actually customize things from the ground up. Sometimes we do integration because it’s faster, easier, and sometimes cheaper. Some of the components and some of the functionality can be integrated. But generally, we customize every project from the ground up. And generally, for your information, we cater to aerospace, robotics, and IoT. IoT is communication—all sorts of wireless and different types of communication: Wi-Fi, 5G, Bluetooth, all sorts of stuff, right? And also medical. So medical, robotics, aerospace, IoT, and also semiconductors, which also serve these different industries. So how is it possible? I mean, you have a relatively small team, right? Fifteen people or so? Twenty-seven, twenty-eight people. Twenty-seven. Okay, sorry. Yeah. With a small team.That’s exactly the very first question you asked me. That’s exactly how it affects and how it comes into the picture. Being organized—I mean, we’ve done this so many times. It’s like we make things so efficient because we already have a plan. Every project we do, in concept, is the same thing. The process is the same. The application is different, but the process is the same. So going through that process and having a very reliable process in place that we follow very religiously makes us super, super efficient. And also, being small, we don’t have to go through a number of different layers. Everything comes to one or two people, gets approved, and we get it going. Everything happens the same day. Nothing waits until the next day here. Are you involved in every project? Fortunately and unfortunately, I’m involved in every project. And one of my goals is to eventually focus on fewer projects so I’d be more effective and efficient. So that’s one of my goals for the next few years. I-Gear is one of them, and we’re also working on another project. It’s for healthcare, it’s for the elderly and infants. Eventually it’s going to be a robot, but right now we’re making the device that is the brain of the robot. So it gets to know the person, it gets to know their habits, it gets to know everything about the person, about their family, about their health, about how they behave. We can remind them of different things. We can assist them with different things. We can watch them. We can emotionally work with them. There are so many different applications that we’re working on now. We can even do preventive diagnostics. What “preventive diagnostics” means is that before the patient or the person gets sick or develops some sort of disease, we can actually identify it before that happens. That’s great. And that’s the most important part of this device. It has so many different applications and different ways it can help and assist an elderly person. And within the next two or three years, my goal is to integrate this into a robot. So we’re going to have a robot that physically helps you as well. My mother ended up in one of those care centers, and I saw how much she was declining on a daily basis—not weekly, not monthly, but daily. And there was nothing, unfortunately, that I or any member of our family could do. I mean, we were there every day, don’t get me wrong, but that’s all we could do for her. We’re all busy. We all have lives. I mean, we were there almost every day, but really, she did not get the care that she needed. And that’s what kind of put me in that frame of mind—how can I help someone like my mom? And that’s how it started about two years ago. And as a matter of fact, now it’s one of the biggest markets. Yeah. It’s one of the biggest. So that’s fascinating. So how can you have so mental bandwidth that you can cover different industries, go deep into different industries, and innovate and invent stuff? How does that even happen? Honestly, I personally work pretty much 12 hours a day. Even on my vacations, I work. Don’t get me wrong, I have a very good life. I work hard and I play hard. I am a very active person. I played as a semi-professional soccer player until I was 58 years old, believe it or not. Actually, next week I’m going to be 65. I still can play. I still can go and compete with 25- and 30-year-old kids, and I still do good, I think. So I keep myself in very good shape. I do mountain biking. I do about 10 to 15 hours of heavy-duty exercise on a weekly basis, and that kind of balances what I’m doing. To answer your question, yes, it’s too much, but yeah, we have to spend more time. There is no magic to it. Sometimes it gets to be too much, but I like what I’m doing, so I enjoy it. Yeah, it shows. Elon Musk is also an example of being able to run six big companies in different areas and be a groundbreaker. But you’re doing something very similar. You are breaking ground in different industries. Yeah. Actually, as I mentioned, I have established different startups and sold them. I have worked on a number of different companies and technologies. As a matter of fact, back in 2005, I brought a whole bunch of different technologies to cars. Any type of car you drive—I don’t care what it is—almost everything in the dash belongs to technologies that we developed from 2005 to 2008. There are some videos and some information on my LinkedIn. I invite people, including yourself, to look into it. The stuff we did back then was in 2005. The iPhone only came out in 2007. We came out with these technologies between 2005 and 2008. Back then, we had Genie. Today they have Alexa and I don’t know what everybody else calls theirs. Yeah. We had Genie. Genie would talk to you. I mean, I’m not just saying it. Please go watch the videos. We have them. So you would just talk to the car, and the car would do everything for you. We came up with a device that initially you could install as an aftermarket stereo in the car. Basically, it would connect all the sensors in the car to the outside world. This was the very first time. As a matter of fact, internet connectivity in the car is my technology. Every single car in the world since 2014 has been connected to the internet, and that’s my technology, my patent, and my license. Of course, I’m not getting much money from it. Unfortunately, I’ve kind of been robbed on that. But at least I can brag about it—that’s our technology. So yeah, we brought a whole bunch of technologies to market. My vision back then was to make the car robust enough to drive without a driver. That’s happening now. It’s happening now. As a matter of fact, we had a car that we put our system into, and we were demonstrating it. And again, there are hundreds of videos about that technology that you can find on the internet. As a matter of fact, we were on PBS for nine months in 27 countries talking about future cars, and that video is also out there. So that was in 2010. They had a half-hour program with my company and with me about future cars. And everything we said, we had the basis for it, and it happened. So, Allen, if you had a magic wand and you could wish for anything to happen in your business, what would that be? So as I said earlier, I like to be more focused now. I’m very spread out with the business—not only with the technical side of things, but also with the business side of things. I really want to get away from the business side and just focus on the technology. That’s what I enjoy more. I do the business side because I have no choice. That’s part of the work, right? But I would like to get to the point where I can focus only on technology, and other people can worry about the other things. So that’s my goal. Okay. So if someone is listening to this and they would like to be like you, what would you advise them? Let’s say they are 20 years old and they want to grow up and be an inventor, come up with solutions, work in different industries, and solve big problems. What’s the path? What would you tell them? So first of all, don’t be like me, that’s for sure. Honestly, you’ve got to enjoy life more than I do. And I do enjoy life. Again, I have different hobbies. I do different sports. I ski, I bike, and those are my hobbies, right? Most importantly, again, we talked about this at the beginning. You’ve got to like what you do. And doing business is not easy. Don’t expect to get into it and have everything work out. Usually, by default, everything goes wrong. So that’s normal. It used to bother me. It used to make me upset, nervous, and all that. But over the last seven to ten years, I learned that things happen, and you just have to resolve them and go through them. Bad things can happen. Good things can happen. It’s all part of the mix. You’ve got to have a very strong personality. Generally, a good percentage of people go paycheck to paycheck, and it’s mental—it’s in their mind. They make a lot of money. They make $100,000 every paycheck. But if you get a paycheck, your mind is like, “Okay, my next paycheck is coming two weeks from now, then another one two weeks after that,” right? And if those two weeks come and you don’t get your paycheck, they go nuts. They go crazy. So if you’re like that, you cannot go into business. In business, it’s all about failure and success. If you’re lucky, that’s a different story. I can go buy a lottery ticket, and only one person out of millions wins. That’s luck. That’s different. But then they lose it all. Lottery winners tend to lose it. Within a year, they’re broke. Yeah, that’s a different story, of course. What I’m saying is that, yeah, some people get lucky. That’s the exception. Don’t compare yourself to that. Don’t go after that. Don’t count on it. Doing business is usually a challenge, no matter what. So you’ve got to have a very strong personality. So yeah, resilience is everything. Well, that’s wonderful. So if someone would like to learn more about SunMan Engineering, or they want to connect with you, what should they do and where should they go? Yeah, the best thing is to please visit the website, which is sunmantechnology.com. There is a contact form there, and you can contact us. We’d be happy to get in touch with you and see how we can help. Okay, fantastic.

Join host Eve Cunningham, MD, Chief Medical Officer at Cadence, in conversation with Brian Stein, MD, Vice President and Chief Quality Officer at Rush University System for Health. Rush is a leading academic health system in Chicago with a national reputation for quality — ranked in Vizient's top 10 among academic medical centers for 13 consecutive years and a six-time U.S. News & World Report Best Hospitals Honor Roll honoree. In this episode, Drs. Eve and Brian explore how Rush has embedded quality into its organizational identity, what it takes to maintain consistent care in an academic medical center, and why remote patient monitoring became a strategic priority. Their conversation focuses on: How Rush treats quality as a brand differentiator rather than a compliance exercise — and the operational principles that make that sustainable Why academic medical centers face a unique quality challenge with trainee turnover every 2–4 years, and how tight processes compensate for that churn What made Rush an early adopter of remote patient monitoring, and the three-part filter Dr. Stein uses to evaluate any new technology Why patient retention on RPM surprised him more than the clinical outcomes — and what's driving long-term engagement How to think about short-term clinical wins versus long-term cost savings, and the payer misalignment that makes proving ROI difficult Where patient stratification is heading — matching the intensity of remote intervention to individual patient needs Where Rush is placing its bets on AI, from diagnostic radiology and pathology to virtual nursing and operational efficiency Dr. Stein is a partner of Cadence and not compensated for this podcast. Segments: [00:05] Introduction — Eve welcomes Dr. Stein to Cadence Conversations [00:39] Origin story — How research on administrative claims data led to a career in quality [04:02] Crew resource management — Team-based training and hardwired safety tools at Rush [05:46] Blood administration errors — How barcoding through Epic reduced a recurring safety issue [07:47] Quality as brand — Why Rush treats quality as a competitive differentiator, not a compliance exercise [09:47] Telling the quality story externally — CMS star ratings, US News rankings, and public credibility [11:36] Quality in an academic medical center — The trainee turnover challenge and why tight processes matter [14:52] Innovation and new care models — Why care beyond the walls became part of Rush's strategy [17:28] The case for RPM — Better outcomes, easier provider workflows, and not breaking the bank [20:34] What surprised him — Patient retention and engagement exceeded expectations [22:13] Evaluating the data — Blood pressure control, goal-directed therapy, and the cost-effectiveness question [24:30] Patient stratification — The future of high-touch vs. lighter-touch remote interventions [28:05] Research priorities — Short-term clinical wins vs. long-term cost savings and the payer challenge [31:50] Chronic disease as a lifetime journey — Why sustained engagement matters [33:09] AI at Rush — Augmented intelligence in radiology, pathology, virtual nursing, and access centers [36:23] Closing — Optimism grounded in a strong quality culture Key Takeaways: Quality becomes sustainable when it's treated as organizational brand identity, not a regulatory requirement — and when you make it easy for clinicians to do the right thing. Academic medical centers face a unique challenge: trainee turnover every 2–4 years means quality can't rely on individual education alone — it must be embedded in process and systems. The most surprising outcome of Rush's RPM journey was patient retention — patients stayed engaged for years in a program category where attrition is typically high. The future of remote care delivery is patient stratification: matching the intensity of the intervention (high-touch human + tech vs. lighter-touch tech-enabled) to the patient's needs. AI's near-term impact in health systems will be augmented intelligence — creating efficiency in diagnostics, operations, and access — not replacing clinical judgment.
Is rotary really better than reciprocating? Can you safely skip the glide path with modern reciprocating systems? What is the best file system for a GDP who wants predictable endodontic results? And perhaps the biggest question of all: does the file system matter as much as we think it does? In Part 2 of the Endo Showdown, Dr Samuel Johnson returns to tackle some of the most common questions dentists have about file systems, glide path preparation, retreatment, and endodontic workflow. From practical negotiation tips to choosing a system that works in your hands, this episode focuses on the decisions that can make endodontics simpler, safer, and more predictable. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onZMR-872HQ Watch PDP271 on YouTube Protrusive Dental Pearl Cut your gutta-percha at the level of the canal orifice and thoroughly clean the pulp chamber before placing the coronal restoration. ⚠️ Leaving gutta-percha and sealer coronally can compromise the coronal seal and promote leakage. ✅ Use isopropyl alcohol to clean resin-based sealer residue before bonding. Water is effective for cleaning bioceramic sealers. Key Takeaways Establish a glide path before shaping whenever possible. D-Finders can negotiate difficult canals more predictably than traditional K-files. Intermediate files such as size 12 or 12.5 can help bridge the jump from size 10 to size 15. Straight-line access reduces file binding and improves shaping efficiency. Avoid forcing glide path files to working length. Gates Glidden drills may be unnecessarily aggressive for routine coronal flaring. Consistency with one file system is often more important than chasing the latest product. WaveOne Gold remains a simple and user-friendly option for many GDPs. Rotary and reciprocating systems can both achieve successful outcomes when used appropriately. A good glide path is often more important than the type of motion being used. Hand files and Hedström files remain valuable during retreatment. Mechanical GP removal near the apex increases the risk of extrusion. Solvents are best reserved for residual gutta-percha rather than used at the start of retreatment. Understanding motor settings, torque, and RPM improves file safety and efficiency. Knowing when to refer is a sign of clinical maturity, not weakness. Clear consent and expectation management reduce stress for both clinician and patient.

What happens when healthcare leaders, innovators, and technology experts gather around a single mission: keeping patients at the center of every decision?At the Patient at the Center Symposium, hosted under the Straight Outta Health IT program, Christopher Kunney guided a series of conversations with healthcare leaders, innovators, and executives focused on redefining patient-centered care. The event featured Eugene Greyfer, founder and CEO of Advocaid and Chief Operating Officer at Veritas Health Services, who shared how his work in Texas Medicaid exposed a critical gap in access to diabetic supplies. He explained how Advocaid combines connected hardware and software, including a dual blood pressure and glucose monitoring device with built-in cellular connectivity, to help underserved patients transmit real-time health data to providers, fully covered through Texas's remote patient monitoring (RPM) program.The symposium then expanded into broader system-level innovation with Jeffrey Heenan-Jalil, founder and CEO of hunterAI, who entered healthcare innovation after losing his brother to cancer and now focuses on healthcare financial transparency through AI-driven spend analytics. He described how his platform analyzes millions of transactions across hospital systems to identify inefficiencies, duplicate payments, and misaligned supplier contracts, with the goal of returning value back into hospital systems for reinvestment in patient care. Mitali Paul, Administrator for the Department of Surgery at Houston Methodist and board member of the Southeast Texas chapter of ACH, emphasized that patient-centered care is not a philosophy but an operational standard, reflected in her organization's nationally recognized outcomes and commitment to quality, compassion, and culturally competent care.Additional perspectives came from Ini Ekiko Thomas, Vice President at Memorial Hermann Health System and leader of its Innovation Hub, who highlighted the challenges startups face when working with large health systems, particularly around compliance, cybersecurity, vendor vetting, and aligning technology to real clinical or operational problems rather than “shiny object” solutions. Finally, event organizers Brittany Jones and Verndon Samuel of Gozio Health, alongside Josh Sol of FTI Consulting, explained that the symposium's purpose was to bridge the gap between providers, IT leaders, and innovators in a local setting where real collaboration could occur beyond large national conferences.Tune in to hear how today's healthcare leaders are turning innovation into real-world impact by putting patients at the center of everything they do!

Your pool doesn't care what RPM your pump runs at. It cares about flow. And most of the headaches we see as pool owners and pool service pros start when circulation quietly drifts away from what the pool actually needs. I sit down with Sean McDermott, Executive Vice President at H2 Flow Controls, to unpack the Nautilus VSF variable speed pool pump and the idea behind it: stop guessing speeds and start controlling real, measured gallons per minute.We dig into adaptive flow, including constant flow mode and turnover mode, and why “set it and forget it” RPM schedules often fall apart as filters get dirty, plumbing conditions change, and water features or in-floor systems cycle on and off. Sean explains how the pump adjusts automatically to maintain the target flow rate, aiming for a pool that's both energy efficient and operationally efficient. That means better circulation, more consistent chemical distribution, and fewer surprise problems that show up when flow drops over time.We also get practical on features pool pros will appreciate: app-based monitoring in the Blue Sync app, a dirty filter warning tied to sustained RPM increases, boost mode for bather load or rough weather, and upcoming heater control through a two-wire fireman switch with flow settings that help protect gas heaters and optimize heat pumps. We wrap with what went into testing, American manufacturing and support, and how the pump lines up with common installs so replacement work is simpler.If this helps you think differently about variable speed pumps, subscribe, share the episode with a pool pro friend, and leave a quick review so more people can find it.We talk with Sean McDermott from H2 Flow Controls about the Nautilus VSF variable speed pump and why measuring real flow beats guessing RPM.

Rotary or reciprocating files — which should you actually be using? Is one safer than the other? Does reciprocation really reduce file separation? Are you choosing your system because it suits the canal anatomy, or because it is simply the one you were taught? Endodontic file systems can feel like a maze of brands, tapers, alloys, motions and marketing claims. But beneath all that noise, the real question is much more practical: what is your file doing inside the canal, and what compromise are you accepting? In this episode, Dr Samuel Johnson returns to unpack the Endo Showdown: rotary versus reciprocating files. We cover file motion, glide paths, shaping philosophy, NiTi metallurgy, cyclic fatigue, torsional fatigue, and why no system is perfect. https://youtu.be/HfWDBbNgjsA Watch PDP270 on YouTube Protrusive Dental Pearl A palliative root canal can be useful for an unrestorable tooth if disinfecting the canal allows infection to heal and natural bone to recover before extraction and future implant planning. ⚠️ Do not dismiss root canal treatment purely because the tooth is not a long-term functional restoration. ✅ Where appropriate, consider whether endodontic disinfection could improve the future implant site by allowing natural bone healing. Key Takeaways The purpose of shaping is not simply to scrape canal walls; it is to create space for irrigant flow. Irrigation is the most important part of root canal disinfection. Rotary files move in a continuous 360-degree rotation. Reciprocating files cut in one direction and reverse before excessive stress builds up. Modern reciprocation is designed to cut, release and gradually progress apically. File choice is not just about motion; metallurgy, taper, design and operator experience all matter. NiTi hand files with strong shape memory may be problematic in curved canals because they want to straighten. Martensitic heat-treated files are more flexible and can better follow canal curvature. Unwinding flutes are a warning sign that a file may be close to separation. Inspect files regularly during treatment, especially in curved, calcified or difficult canals. A glide path is essential before introducing larger rotary or reciprocating files. Without a glide path, a shaping file may create its own path, risking ledging, transportation or perforation. “Grabby” files pull themselves into the canal; this can be useful in experienced hands but risky if forced. Reciprocating systems can feel simpler and safer, but they are not foolproof. Cyclic fatigue happens when a file repeatedly bends around a curve until microcracks form. Torsional fatigue happens when part of the file binds while the motor continues to turn.

Air Week: June 1-7, 2026 Arthur Lee Maye & The Crowns Arthur Lee Maye did something that few had ever done. He concurrently had a career as a R&B singer, leading the LA-based group Arthur Lee Maye & The Crowns while also playing minor and major league baseball as an outfielder for the Milwaukee Braves. Both of his careers virtually began in 1954 and since Lee Maye was busy playing baseball from April until October, he could only make records during the off-season. These records consisted of some of the greatest West Coast Rhythm & Blues Vocal Group sounds you’re ever going to hear. Maye and the Crowns began on the Modern Records family of labels, jumping from Flair to RPM to the parent company without scoring a significant hit. Then it was off to Art Rupe’s famed Specialty Records for a one-off single, before recording a few sides for Johnny Otis’ Dig Records. Richard Berry, who famously recorded the original “Louie Louie” for Flip Records in 1956 was an original member of the group and it was also the Crowns with Lee Maye who backed Berry on his first solo sides. However, the Crowns did not receive any credit on those early Berry recordings. Several of Maye’s records; “Gloria” and “Set My Heart Free” have become vocal group classics. Matt The Cat digs in and aims for the fences this week as we present the seldom heard, but nonetheless brilliant recordings of Arthur Lee Maye and the Crowns. LISTEN BELOW

Your TikTok reach isn't broken because of something you did. It's being rebuilt because of something that happened to the platform. On January 22, 2026, Oracle took over TikTok's US data infrastructure. As part of the deal, TikTok is retraining its recommendation algorithm on US-only data running on Oracle's servers. That retraining runs from Q1 through mid-2026. Creators are widely reporting RPM drops, reach declines and unpredictable content distribution.In episode 185 of 'On the Whorizon' SWCEO founder and host MelRoseMichaels breaks down exactly what's happening at the platform level, the four algorithm signals the retrained algorithm is weighting most heavily, and the three-move playbook to post with the Oracle retraining instead of against it.
Work is full of communication. Slack messages. Zoom calls. Meetings stacked on meetings. But many teams still struggle to do the one thing that matters most: connect in ways that build trust, insight, and better thinking together. It's like we're starving at a buffet.rnrnAnn Kowal Smith, founder and CEO of Reflection Point, will argue that a successful future (at work and beyond) depends not only on new technology, but on enduring human capacities: listening, empathy, curiosity, challenging assumptions, and disagreeing respectfully. Reflection Point helps organizations develop these five skills through shared discussions about literature, using stories as a practical tool for culture building and stronger collaboration.rnrnJoining Ann is Randell McShepard, Vice President of Public Affairs and Chief Talent Officer at RPM, who will discuss why his company sees these critical capacities as essential to leadership, culture, and performance.rnrnJoin us at the City Club for a unique forum featuring a live Reflection Point demonstration using a provocative short story. Together, the conversation will show how stories can help teams think more deeply, relate more honestly, and work better together.
In this episode of the Build America podcast, host Scott Jennings discusses the critical role that clear communication plays in your professional and personal life. Drawing from his extensive experience in heavy civil construction, Scott breaks down how vague communication habits lead to errors, confusion, and social awkwardness in the workplace. Learn why being precise with your words is an easy, cost free way to demonstrate your expertise and get the job done right the first time. The Problem with Pronouns: Using "he," "him," or "it" without a clearly defined subject forces people to guess your meaning. Specificity prevents mistakes. Mastering Units of Measure: In construction and engineering, mixing up or leaving out units causes major issues. Scott highlights the danger of incomplete units like PSI versus weight, and why you must define calendar days versus work days in scheduling. The Cost of Omission: Omitting units entirely forces teams to guess critical metrics like RPM versus GPM. This shorthand can alienate team members and stop them from asking for clarification. Mentor the Next Generation: Experienced professionals should teach newcomers correct industry standards, like ordering concrete in cubic yards.

Welcome to Glenn Robison's Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can't not tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78 RPM records of the 1920s and '30s. So why in blazes is there a photograph of a blaze emblazoned on the playlist? Everything on this week’s show is for no particular reason. There are no birthday celebrations, no cultural or news events, just five random topics, one of which is blazes, In other segments, we’ll have a vocabulary lesson, we’ll throw some things, do some wandering and have a jubilee.

In this episode, we examine the RadioShack Retro Turntable (Model 4001797), a $129.99 belt-drive player that aims to balance vintage aesthetics with modern connectivity. The unit plays all three standard speeds—33 1/3, 45, and 78 RPM—and accommodates records up to 12 inches, making it compatible with most collections including older shellac formats. It features dual built-in speakers for immediate playback, though serious listeners will likely take advantage of the RCA outputs to connect to external audio systems. The turntable's standout feature is its bidirectional Bluetooth capability, allowing users to either stream audio to the turntable or send vinyl playback wirelessly to Bluetooth speakers. Additional connectivity includes a 3.5mm AUX input and headphone jack. Housed in an MDF case with a PVC vinyl finish and transparent dust cover, the turntable occupies a 15.75" x 14.17" footprint. At this price point, it positions itself as an accessible entry point for vinyl newcomers or a convenient secondary setup, offering out-of-the-box functionality without requiring immediate additional investment in external speakers.

Your pool's pressure gauge can save you hours of guesswork, or it can trick you into cleaning the wrong thing at the wrong time. We walk through what pool filter PSI (pounds per square inch) actually means, why higher pressure usually equals more restriction and less circulation, and how that loss of flow shows up in real life: cloudier water, weak returns, a spa spillway that barely spills, and cleaners that stop moving like they should.We also get specific about filter types. DE filters and sand filters often follow the classic rule of thumb where about a 10 PSI rise over clean pressure signals it's time to backwash (and for DE, recharge). Cartridge filters are a different story. Small single-cartridge systems may show a clear PSI climb as they clog, but large quad cartridge filters can run for months with almost no gauge movement, so you need to pair the pressure reading with water quality, flow clues, and a consistent filter cleaning schedule.Variable speed pumps change the whole PSI game because pressure depends on RPM. If the system is running low speed when you check it, the gauge may look “normal” even when the filter is loaded. We share the simplest way to get a meaningful reading: run the pump at full speed briefly and compare that number to your recorded clean PSI. Finally, we cover red-flag readings like near-zero PSI (broken gauge, low water, air, impeller issues) and sudden very high PSI (possible return-side blockage) so you know when it's more than routine pool maintenance.• defining PSI and why higher pressure usually means lower flow• finding and tracking each pool's clean filter pressure baseline• spotting flow loss through spillways, water features, and cleaners• knowing when DE and sand filters need backwashing• understanding why large quad cartridge PSI often barely changes• using full-speed readings to evaluate filters on variable speed pumps• diagnosing near-zero PSI from dry running, air leaks, or impeller clogs• treating sudden high PSI as a possible return-side blockageSend us Fan MailSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

Welcome to our bi-monthly ENCORE PRESENTATION of classic REVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE episodes from the vault! Today I bring you one of the most beloved episodes of RPM ever--a deep dive into the magical lives of REDD KROSS with JEFF & STEVEN McDONALD and the director of the documentary BORN INNOCENT: THE REDD KROSS STORY. At the time of our discussion, the film had barely reached human eyeballs, but now it's available on all sorts of physical formats and streaming. If I were still operating my video store, this would have been referred to as a 5-tape film (our highest ranking!). Enjoy!(Episode 66 originally aired on Dec 12th, 2024).ORIGINAL SHOW NOTES:This week, we are joined by legends Jeff & Steven McDonald of REDD KROSS and Andrew Reich, the director of the new Redd Kross documentary ‘BORN INNOCENT: THE REDD KROSS STORY.' A band very close to my heart and record collection, we discussed so much in this episode, including the Elks Lodge Punk Rock riot and the story of their parents rescuing them from it, Andrew's gateway into hearing the band for the first time, Jeff's early hair regiment and the moment the band decided they would cut their hair no more, their shows with Black Flag and The Go-Go's, the brother dynamic and what it's like starting your band at age 11 and 15, convincing their parents to drop them off at punk rock shows and how hard was it to get their parents to agree to be in the movie, how the film took almost 10 years to complete and what made Andrew want to be the one to direct it, the brother dynamic, the magic in how Redd Kross write songs, razzamataz, the cover art of Born Innocent, reclaiming the fun after the traumas of their youth, garbage culture, Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls and discovering Pink Flamingos, how video stores saved our young minds, what it was like acting in the Lovedoll films, Anarchy 6 (The Rutles of hardcore punk), their massive influence on the American underground and what later became grunge, Sub-Pop, working with Geza X and being out of their minds on drugs while recording theTeen Babes from Monsanto LP, the multitude of band members that have gone through the ranks of the band over the years, Bowie being at their first nightclub show, could Redd Kross ever existed anywhere else but L.A., breaking down their tragic show at the legendary CITY GARDENS venue, the night Jeff taunted the Suicidal Tendencies crew, the power and safety of wearing a guitar on stage, who would play Redd Kross in the big screen biopic version of their story and so much more!So blow a kiss in the wind and let your hair grow long on this week's episode of Revolutions Per Movie!!!REDD KROSS:https://www.reddkrossfilm.com/https://reddkross.com/Host Chris Slusarenko (Eyelids, Guided By Voices, owner of Clinton Street Video rental store) is joined by actors, musicians, comedians, writers & directors who each week pick out their favorite music documentary, musical, music-themed fiction film, or music videos to discuss.

Welcome to Glenn Robison's Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can't not tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78 RPM records of the 1920s and '30s. I’m going to bet that everyone seeing this photograph knows the name of the subject. That’s right! it’s Pete the Pup from the Our Gang / Little Rascals comedies. On this week’s edition of the show, you’ll hear all about Pete as well as three rapidly rotating records about some other pups. There are also three birthday segments this week, for Lou Herscher, Gene Rodemich and Lou Gold. And in the second segment, we’ll play “Jacks.” I’m still trying to play “catch-up” now that we’re back from our little excursion to Tennessee and environs and will post shows as quickly as I possibly can.

Welcome to Glenn Robison's Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can't not tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78 RPM records of the 1920s and '30s. Here, at last, is the April 12, 2026 edition of Rapidly Rotating Records. I apologize for the delay in posting it, but better late than never. Pictured above is the reason for the delay, a two week visit to visit family in Tennessee. For our last two visits, we stayed within the state, but this time we made a side trip for a couple of days, so this week’s show features segments about some of the states and cities we visited while back here.

Supercharging a classic Volkswagen isn't a new idea—it's been around since the 1960s—but today's technology is taking air-cooled performance to a whole new level. With the rise of modern kits like the AMR500, more VW enthusiasts are exploring forced induction as a serious upgrade for their street and performance builds. In this episode of Let's Talk Dubs, we welcome back Ron and Kevin Trewhella from Rababak Performance to break down their latest innovation—the all-new MK supercharger kit. Designed specifically for larger displacement air-cooled VW engines like 2276cc, 2332cc, and 2.2L+ builds, this system is built for real, usable power. We're talking dyno-proven numbers pushing up to 240 horsepower and 288 lb-ft of torque at just 3000 RPM—the kind of low-end torque you can actually feel on the street. We get into the development process behind the MK kit, what makes it different from smaller AMR500 setups, and what engine combinations work best to maximize performance and reliability. Whether you're building a street-driven Volkswagen, a weekend warrior, or just curious about bolt-on supercharger kits for air-cooled VWs, this episode is packed with insight straight from the source. If you're into supercharged VW engines, air-cooled performance upgrades, Volkswagen engine builds, or forced induction setups for classic Beetles and buses, this is one you don't want to miss.
Jason Marburger of Fireball Tool returns for our annual conversation — and he's not pulling punches. We dig into the public feud between Fireball, Sigmund, and Quantum Machinery over fixture table claims, why "world's strongest welding table" needs data to back it up, and Jason's push to standardize testing across the industry. He also walks us through the grinding disc performance guide his shop spent months producing, the surprising winners (the $2.50 Steel Savage, the new 3M Cubitron 3), and why pressure — not RPM — is what most welders are getting wrong. Plus a preview of what Fireball is rolling out at FabTech Vegas, including a 1,800-pound blacksmith vise, theft-proof service truck vises, and the new Mystic Square. Show Notes A wide-ranging conversation with Jason Marburger, founder of Fireball Tool, covering fixture table testing, the abrasives industry, tool design philosophy, and what it takes to back up your marketing claims with real data. Topics covered in this episode: The Sigmund / Quantum / Fireball Instagram beef and why "world's strongest welding table" needs proof How Jason tests fixture tables — flex, deflection, three-leg sag — and why every table company should publish numbers 3D printing scale models of fixture tables so customers can flex-test before they buy Why BuildPro set the bar for value and how Fireball's Pro Kit table competes at $500-$600 The made-in-USA vs. overseas manufacturing struggle for tool companies Fireball's new 1,800-pound blacksmith vise — 30-inch throat, $7K-$8K, built to last 100 years Drilling 800 holes in a Fireball vise to handicap it against a Wilton (and why marketing is the hardest part of the job) The Ultimate Grinding Performance Guide — 65 flap discs tested, charted, and ranked Why the cheap Steel Savage discs outperform mid-tier name brands at $2.50 a piece Cubitron 3 first-look: 3M's 50% claim is real The 4-to-8-pound pressure sweet spot every grinder operator should know The myth of slowing the grinder down to save the disc Mill scale removal — Walter strip discs vs. 3M's new offering How to deglaze a flap disc with a propane torch (do this when the boss isn't looking) Gloves around rotating equipment: the case for situational awareness over blanket rules A pitch for a head-to-head welding glove comparison series FabTech Vegas preview: new sawhorses, the Mystic Square, theft-proof service truck vises, and the blacksmith vise on the load cell Find Jason at fireballtool.com and on YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook @fireballtool.

Overkill? Never heard of it. The 338 class of cartridges has their place in the hunting industry but where? Today, we're talking about all things 338 including the history and development of the 338-378 WBY MAG, where the 338 RPM fits in, and why you should chase antelope with a 338-378. In this episode we discuss: - The big bores - The 338-378 WBY MAG - The history of the 338-378 - Design behind 338 RPM - Where the 338-378 WBY MAG shines
Your pool equipment is probably not “broken” the setup is. We dig into the kind of questions that hit my inbox all the time and give the field-tested fixes that actually save you hours: why a Phoenix 4X or Hayward Aquanaut suction side cleaner keeps going sideways, what that says about balance and hose length, and the one adjustment that usually stops the problem immediately.Then we get into variable speed pump quality-of-life upgrades. If your VS pump screams at full RPM every morning during priming, you can often lower the priming speed and shorten the priming duration without losing reliability. I walk through the logic behind choosing a quieter priming RPM, why five minutes at max speed is often overkill, and how this simple change can cut noise and wasted energy for both homeowners and pool service pros.We also talk saltwater chlorine generator choices beyond the usual big names. If you're replacing an older AquaRite salt system and keep hearing “never heard of that brand,” I share why Circuit Pool salt systems are worth a serious look, how retrofit options can make the swap easier, and why ORP and pH automation with acid feeding can push your pool closer to truly hands-off water care. We wrap with suction plumbing tips around main drains, anti-vortex drain hangups, Polaris Atlas and Polaris Max cleaner fit, and vacuum bag upgrades for Bottom Feeder, Shrimp, and Riptide setups.•Adding one or two hose sections to stop Phoenix 4X and Aquanaut cleaners from tipping sideways•Why the four-wheel handle design can make a cleaner feel top heavy•Changing variable speed pump priming speed and priming time to reduce noise and wasted energy•Circuit Pool salt system pros, warranty value, and AquaRite retrofit compatibility•Why diverting suction to the skimmer helps suction side cleaner performance•Which cleaners get stuck on anti-vortex main drains and why Polaris Atlas and Max tend to avoid it•Choosing longer-lasting vacuum bags, smarter micron sizes, and cartridge filtration alternatives•Bottom Feeder or Shrimp portability vs Riptide cartSend us Fan MailSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

Avoiding maintenance can be a good thing when what's recommended is unnecessary. Email podcasts@aopa.org for a chance to get on the show. Join the world's largest aviation community at aopa.org/join Full notes below: Dominick is questioning his mechanic's advice on prop overhauls. He has a Cessna 310 and his left rpm is too low on approach when the control is full forward. It's not an issue on the ground or on takeoff. His mechanic recommends overhauling the propeller, and since he's doing one he should do both. He swapped governors and that didn't change anything. He sent the prop back for IRAN and they didn't find anything significant. Paul suggests it's the low pitch stops. This is a classic twin owner trap, Mike says. The two engines are never the same. Everyone agrees that he can leave it as is. Vas has an RV-10 and the Lycoming IO-540 has been acting up. During some flight training in the airplane, he noticed oil consumption went up, metal was in the filter, and he ended up overhauling the engine. He's wondering if he should have just pulled a cylinder instead. He was flying 140 hours a year, and he's wondering why he would get corrosion. Higher oil consumption isn't a corrosion problem, but the cam and lifter spalding do indicate it. These were unrelated problems, according to Mike. Paul thinks it's possible the damage was already in place when there was a previous IRAN. They settle on it being a lifter hardening issue, meaning poorly manufactured parts. Jim has a Mooney M20K and an instructor showed him a leaning procedure while in cruise at 9,000 feet. They set the manifold pressure to 30 inches, the RPM at 2300, and then pulled the fuel back to 11 gph. That's how he's been leaning ever since. CHTs are in the 360/370-degree range. He trails the cowl flaps to try and cool the CHTs if it's a hot summer day. If the TIT gets too high he'll enrichen it just a touch. Paul said if he adds more fuel and the TIT goes down, he's running rich of peak. Peter found some residue on the top of his intake valves on the engine on his 172N. He typically flies with autogas. He's wondering if can or should get rid of it, and if so, how to do it. Paul said people talk about it, but he's never done it. They suppose it's not carbon, but probably coked oil. They suggest a wobble test if he's really worried, but generally they think he can leave it alone.
Welcome back to the Hangar Z Podcast, brought to you by Vertical HeliCASTS, in partnership with Vertical Valor Plus.Today's episode comes to you from the floor of Verticon in Atlanta, recorded inside the Vertical Plus booth, where the energy of the industry and the people who drive it were on full display.Our guests are pilots Brian Dunn and Brian Atkinson of Coldstream Helicopters in Kelowna, British Columbia—this year's recipients of the VAI Salute to Excellence Pilots of the Year award. Between them, they represent both experience and the next generation of aviation professionalism—Brian Dunn with an incredible 50 years in the cockpit, and Brian Atkinson just four years into what is already proving to be an exceptional career.In this episode, we dive into their individual paths into aviation, the lessons learned along the way, and the shared mindset that brought them together in a moment that would define both of their careers.You'll hear the gripping story of an in-flight emergency while fighting a fire in an Airbus Super Puma—low, slow, and heavy with a full bucket of water, moments away from making a drop, when they suddenly lost all electrical power and experienced dropping rotor RPM. What follows is a powerful account of teamwork, communication, and composure under extreme pressure.This is a story about preparation meeting reality, and how recent simulator training directly influenced their decision-making in those critical seconds. Ultimately, it's about professionalism, trust, and doing the job when everything is on the line.This is an incredible conversation you won't want to miss.Thank you to our sponsors CNC Technologies, SHOTOVER Systems and Spectrolab.
In this episode, Brock Johnson breaks down how small YouTube channels can realistically make $50 per day in 2026. He sits down with Sean Cannell to discuss why the common belief that you need millions of views to make money on YouTube is misleading, and how even smaller creators can build meaningful income with the right strategy. They start by explaining the math behind $50 per day, including how YouTube RPM works and why many creators misunderstand how ad revenue is calculated. Sean walks through realistic RPM ranges for small channels and shows how different niches can dramatically affect earnings potential. They then dive into monetization strategies beyond AdSense, focusing on affiliate marketing and why it can generate income faster for smaller channels. They discuss how creators can set up simple affiliate systems, how many sales it actually takes to reach $50 per day, and why SaaS affiliate programs are particularly powerful due to recurring commissions. Another major theme of the episode is choosing the right YouTube niche and attracting higher-value audiences. We discuss how advertiser demand, viewer demographics, and topic selection influence RPM and long-term channel profitability. Brock and Sean also explore the concept of viewer intent — one of the most important factors for turning views into revenue — and the types of videos that naturally convert viewers into buyers, such as product reviews, comparisons, and “best of” lists. Finally, they bring everything together with practical advice for creators with fewer than 1,000 subscribers, including what videos to start making immediately and the fastest path to earning your first $50 day on YouTube.
