[00:30] Britain Is Broken (55 minutes) Brexit was pivotal—but without repentance, Britain's wounds have only worsened. Ten years after Brexit, Britain remains politically unstable, economically strained and deeply divided. The vote fulfilled a long-proclaimed warning by Herbert Armstrong that Britain would leave the EU—making Germany more dominant inside Europe.
The more important question might be: why are we still struggling with the same training problems we've had for twenty years?In this episode, we tackle a challenge facing nearly every contact center: new hire training that produces high attrition, slow ramp times, and inconsistent performance.The conversation started with a client losing roughly half of its new hires during training and another portion during nesting. Despite new technology, the outcomes felt painfully familiar.We explored some uncomfortable questions:Are organizations hiring the right people for the job?Do recruiters actually understand the roles they're filling?Are training programs teaching agents what to know instead of how to find answers?Why are contact centers still trying to memorize information that changes every few weeks?How much time do leaders spend observing their own training programs?Bob argues that many training failures begin before day one, with hiring processes that prioritize filling seats instead of finding the right fit.We also discuss one of the biggest missed opportunities in modern training:AI is changing how agents work, but many training organizations haven't changed how they train.As AI-powered knowledge systems, agent assist tools, and automation become standard, training leaders need a seat at the table. Yet in many organizations, training teams are disconnected from the technology decisions that will fundamentally reshape agent performance.One of the biggest insights from the discussion:The real opportunity isn't using AI to automate training.It's using AI to automate the things training used to spend time on so trainers can focus on the skills that matter most:Building rapportProblem solvingJudgmentDe-escalationRelationship-buildingHandling difficult conversationsTechnology changes.The fundamentals don't.Topics discussed:Why new hire attrition remains so highHiring mistakes that create training failuresTeaching agents how to find answers versus memorizing answersThe role of nesting and floor supportWhy training content quickly becomes obsoleteThe disconnect between training teams and AI initiativesAgent assist and the future of onboardingTough skills versus technical skillsWhy fundamentals still matter in modern contact centersHow AI should reshape training priorities

Most apartment operators think they know who they're competing against. According to Jonas Bordo, they're probably missing the bigger picture.In the second half of Reid's conversation with the Dwellsy CEO, Jonas explains why renters don't think in traditional comp sets, how AI could soon replace apartment search as we know it, and why the future belongs to open platforms that connect renters, properties, and intelligent agents. It's an eye-opening conversation about technology, consumer behavior, and the forces reshaping housing.Whether you're in multifamily, proptech, marketing, or operations, Jonas offers a fresh perspective on where the industry is headed—and why the biggest changes may arrive much sooner than most people expect.

Apartment search is overdue for a rebuild. In this episode, Reid sits down with Jonas Bordo, co-founder and CEO of Dwellsy, to unpack why the rental marketplace still struggles with stale listings, bad rent data, fraud, and outdated assumptions about how renters actually search. Jonas explains how final asking rent creates a more accurate picture of the market, why traditional comp sets are often hilariously wrong, and how Dwellsy is building a more open, comprehensive rental marketplace.The conversation also looks ahead to an agentic future, where renters may no longer scroll through endless listings at all. Instead, AI agents could search, compare, schedule tours, and even help negotiate leases on their behalf. For multifamily marketers, operators, and anyone still pretending apartment search works just fine, this episode is a very necessary wake-up call.

It has been over two years since FIDE implemented major changes to its rating system aimed at combating rating deflation. But are those changes actually working? My guest, Vlad Ghita, joins me to dig into the data. Vlad is a Romanian arbiter, instructor, and chess enthusiast with a master's degree in physics. In his new e-book, The Rating Revolution, he takes a rigorous, data-driven look at how the global rating system is functioning—and where it may still be falling short. We discuss: What Vlad calls the “participation paradox” Which countries may be the most underrated How age impacts rating expectations Why some players feel stuck despite improving Is the US rating system functioning more effectively than FIDE? As discussed in the episode, many of these issues stem from structural imbalances in the rating pool—something Vlad illustrates through extensive analysis of nearly one million games . In our conversation (and in his book), Vlad not only identifies problems but also proposes thoughtful solutions. As a dedicated coach and adult improver himself, he also shares practical advice for chess improvement. ; 0:00- Intro Thanks to our sponsor, Chessable.com.

We've been sold a lie about “having it all.” More money. More status. More freedom. But before Kelly Siegel ever understood success, he understood damage. And this episode reframes “having it all” from the inside out. In this powerful solo episode, Kelly breaks down the five pillars most people chase without understanding: health, family, money, purpose, peace, and seasons and how each one is completely misunderstood when you grow up in chaos, survival, or scarcity. This isn't an episode about optimization. It's about liberation. If you've ever felt like you're doing everything “right” but still feel exhausted, conflicted, or misaligned, this episode will give you language for what you're experiencing. Because having it all isn't about doing more. It's about healing enough to receive what you already built. Key Takeaways:

Over the last three weeks, we’ve talked about repentance, abiding, and prayer. And if you’re anything like me, somewhere along the way you quietly thought… This should be fixing more than it is.” We repented, We turned back to God, We committed to His Word, We prayed more intentionally. And yet— some of the same struggles are still there. Some of the same temptations still show up. Some of the same patterns still fight for control. And that leads to a dangerous, discouraging question: “Did I do this wrong…or is something wrong with me?” Some of you came today feeling: Frustrated with yourself, Tired of starting over, Quietly ashamed that you’re not further along. So before we go any further, I want to say this clearly: The problem isn’t that you’re still broken. The problem is that you expected arrival. Somewhere along the way, we absorbed the idea that spiritual growth would feel like graduation. That maturity meant struggle would fade. That obedience would eventually eliminate weakness. But the gospel never promised arrival in this life. It promised grace. Today we close Begin Again with a freeing truth: You are still broken—and God is still working. That’s not failure. That’s Christianity.

See more: https://thinkfuture.substack.comConnect with Zoher: https://www.linkedin.com/in/zzkaru/---Everyone talks about AI—but it's data that still decides what works and what fails.In this episode of thinkfuture, host Chris Kalaboukis speaks with Zoher Karu, data and analytics leader with a PhD in engineering and experience at McKinsey, eBay, Citibank, Sears, and Blue Shield of California. Zoher now works with Taelor, a men's clothing rental subscription service using data and AI to personalize style at scale.Zoher explains why “dirty data” remains one of the biggest unsolved problems in business—and why the issue isn't technology, but how organizations are structured. Teams build data in silos to solve short-term problems, creating fragmented systems that AI can't magically fix.The conversation moves from fashion and personalization to a much bigger question: what happens when AI quietly takes over everyday decision-making?We cover:- How Taelor uses data, metadata, and human stylists to curate clothing- Why clothing sizes are a data nightmare—and what that teaches us about AI limits- The real reason data quality is still broken across industries- How siloed teams create long-term data problems- Why AI will reduce the effort of finding information, not eliminate thinking -A future where tasks like planning events, shopping, and inventory management become automated- What humans should focus on when machines handle the mundaneZoher's view of the future isn't flashy—it's practical. As AI handles more low-level optimization, human value shifts toward judgment, creativity, and deciding what actually matters.If you're interested in AI, data, personalization, or the future of everyday decision-making, this episode offers a grounded look at where we're really headed.
If you could reflect on one thing, it's this:How do you process loss and grief?This letter is for anyone who's lost their greatest ally and has been grieving ever since.The writer speaks to Monica Macansantos, author of Returning to My Father's Kitchen: Essays. She expresses how her former teacher's book gave her permission to feel what her family wouldn't talk about: the pain of losing a loved one who was more than a parent. Her father was her greatest ally, her champion, and the inspiration behind her curiosity and creativity. The writer paints a portrait of healing that doesn't erase the pain but, instead, carries it with her.If you've ever felt pressure to suppress your grief, yet longed to honor a loved one in a way that feels true to you, then this one's for you.This concludes TFAW Project's Letters — Holiday Edition!
