OK, look, we love the bayou. Like, we LOVE IT. The accents, the trees, THE FREAKING GOTHIC VIBES. But what we don't love is the murder. Especially this one. On August 23, 1987, a young mother named Selonia Reed was found murdered in her car about a mile from her home. The clues were few, but there was one that was significant. A cigarette butt. In the pre-DNA 1980s, there wasn't much they could do with it. But, shockingly, it was well preserved. And though it would take THIRTY FIVE YEARS to get it done, that cigarette butt would eventually lead investigators to Selonia's killer. That's...too long. But here we are. And now let's spend some time with Selonia's friends and family--including her impeccably dressed sister--to hear about how amazing she was. Find and watch "Murder in the Bayou" on HuluLOOKING FOR MORE TCO?

While category expertise and strategies help procurement deliver specific business outcomes, sometimes it is the cross-category fundamentals that make the biggest difference of all. Case in point: stakeholder expectation setting.  How fast will a project move and why? What might need to be changed to deliver the results the business is looking for? How should stakeholders think about savings and cost avoidance? These are important topics for procurement to address before a sourcing project ever gets underway. In this episode of The Sourcing Hero podcast, Host Kelly Barner welcomes Richard Campbell to the show. Richard has deep experience in procurement, specifically in sourcing and managing spend related to the fleet, transportation, and logistics categories. Richard shares his perspective on why setting stakeholder expectations early and often is critical to procurement's success: How to kick off a new project with the best chances for sustained alignment between procurement and the business Why procurement may need to educate stakeholders about cost avoidance and TCO in addition to sourcing strategy The importance of being present and listening closely before ever speaking to set an expectation   Links: Richard Campbell on LinkedIn

Lynn Smurthwaite-Murphy, CEO of Plugable The IT channel is no stranger to consumer brands attempting to make the leap into the B2B world, but few have navigated it as deliberately as Plugable. Originally known as a digital-native brand that built its reputation on Amazon, the connectivity and peripherals vendor is now turning its full attention to the channel. On this episode of In The Channel, Plugable chief executive officer Lynn Smurthwaite-Murphy – a familiar face to Canadian partners from her time leading Westcon Canada – explains how the company is translating its consumer success into a reliable, low-friction offering for managed service providers. She notes that surviving the brutal review ecosystem on Amazon forced Plugable to build highly reliable, extensively tested products, which today translates into fewer helpdesk tickets for MSPs managing complex, mixed-vendor desktop environments. We also discuss the recent strategic investment from Acer Gadget. Smurthwaite-Murphy shares how this partnership gives Plugable the global supply chain muscle it needs to expand while remaining strictly vendor-neutral. Finally, we touch on a massive hardware innovation for the artificial intelligence era. Smurthwaite-Murphy shares details on Plugable’s upcoming Thunderbolt 5 AI enclosure, a modular hardware solution that promises to bring workstation-class, local AI processing power to standard laptops, giving MSPs a practical way to deploy AI hardware without relying entirely on emerging AI PCs. Read Full Transcript ROBERT DUTT: Hello and welcome to In The Channel from ChannelBuzz.ca, bringing news and information to the Canadian IT channel community for the last 16 years. I’m Robert Dutt, editor of ChannelBuzz.ca, and your host for the show. Today, we’re talking about the desktop edge and how a brand born on Amazon is making waves in the IT channel. My guest is Lynn Smurthwaite-Murphy, the chief executive officer of Plugable. Many of you will recognize Lynn from her deep roots here in the Canadian channel, including her time leading Westcon Canada. She joined Plugable a few years ago to help them transition from a prosumer favourite to a serious B2B player. We discuss why their trial by fire in the consumer review space actually makes their docking stations and peripherals perfect for MSPs looking to reduce help desk tickets in mixed hardware environments. We also dig into their recent investment from Acer Gadget and get a really exciting scoop on a new Thunderbolt 5 AI enclosure that gives partners a modular way to deploy serious local AI processing power. Let’s get right into it. My chat with Lynn Smurthwaite-Murphy. ROBERT DUTT: Tim, thanks for taking the time. It’s great to talk to you again. LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: Yeah, it’s great to talk to you again as well. It’s been many years, we were just establishing. ROBERT DUTT: It has been a while, probably more than either of us would like to admit, but such is. A lot of our listeners will obviously know you from your time leading Westcon Canada and then your work at StarTech.com after that. Can you kind of walk us through your journey from the distribution side of the house to where you are now at the helm of Plugable? LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: Yeah, actually it’s been interesting because I started out at a service provider and then I spent many years at Westcon, and then I went to a vendor brand, which is where I’m at now as well. So you kind of get this 360-degree view of the channel and it’s been really interesting. I’ve been very fortunate. So about five years ago, I joined Plugable as the CEO and we’ve been undergoing a whole transformation. I mean, I can go into it if you want now, a little bit about why I joined the company, but I don’t want to jump on any questions you have. ROBERT DUTT: No, I appreciate that. And yeah, this would be a great time to do that. What did you see there? And I guess especially… yeah, let’s just start there. LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: Yeah. So Plugable was known, and some of the channel partners do think of us as an Amazon seller. But what I loved about the… I mean, we were watching them closely because we were always competing with them when I was at StarTech.com. But what they really are is a data company, an e-commerce company, and they were founded on Amazon. So I saw this digital native that suddenly was showing up in the channel and the channel was asking for the Plugable products and I was like, what’s going on there? And I was very interested. And as I was talking to the founder, he really wanted to expand. We had this… what was happening was the Chinese factory brands were beginning to show up on Amazon and, I mean, they’re fine products, but the solutions are extremely broad compatibility for business. So suddenly I started noticing a lot of business in our point of sale and we invested in a whole channel team and we wanted to grow to this omnichannel wherever the business customers buy. And so I found it a very interesting business model. And I think that kind of leads to where we are today. It was sort of demand from the channel side of things. ROBERT DUTT: Interesting, because I was curious what kind of drove the strategic decision to go from the kind of direct-to-consumer and prosumer Amazon-centric brand to the sort of formalizing and B2B IT channel and making that kind of the bread and butter, it seems. LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: Yeah. I mean, there were these factors that were happening. As I mentioned, there was disruption in the B2C side and then suddenly businesses are looking at the solution. And I think what interested me the most is the channel has a very broad portfolio that they’re responsible for with the customer. They can’t be master of every brand. And so they want, specifically in peripherals, they want something that they know will work and it’s easy to figure out what the compatibility is. So you had these two things coming together at the same time. And this company had to be built and survive and thrive with customers never talking to a customer yet selling something fairly complicated. So they had to do it all digitally. And that’s where I found… I think the channel was being asked for us initially because customers were doing online research, right? The B2B buyer’s journey is changing. And so they were asking for us and that’s kind of how it all began. ROBERT DUTT: How do you take that digital-only or digital-first kind of culture in terms of marketing, in terms of… well, there isn’t really so much enablement, but documentation support for customers… and turn that into channel enablement and all the stuff that one has to do when one’s working through the VAR or MSP channel? LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: Yeah, great question. So there’s a team of us that came over that had spent our career in the channel. So we knew what the channel required from a channel program, channel support. And so we started with distribution and made sure that we were in the right distribution partners and that we had our inventory available and that we were listed properly. And then we were supporting the channel. They knew how to reach us. And so it’s been that journey, and marketing programs and events, doing all that. And now, as the whole modern desk is becoming disrupted again, and so much more is being expected of it, things are becoming more complicated. It was time for us to hire a field team. And that field team can help generate leads for the channel, but also can help support the customers. That’s where we are today. We’re on this multi-year journey of transforming to a B2B company, which now the majority of our business is through the channel, which now we are all-channel as well. I consider Amazon a channel. We don’t take any share of the world. ROBERT DUTT: Especially with that talent in place and that muscle motion in place now, how do you address some of the classic partner concerns that I’m sure have come up? Deal reg, margin protection, MDF, especially when Amazon is part of the channel, but it is also a visible competitor to a lot of the folks who are in the VAR/MSP space. LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: Oh, great question. And it’s interesting, the channel partners ask us that every time they see us. And we do a little test. We say, let’s go online right now and let’s look at Amazon and several partners’ listings. And I challenge you to find where there’s a different price, where the channel is at a disadvantage. And it’s because we came from an Amazon partner to a channel partner, we have really good control over our pricing. So that’s number one. And then we were able to build a channel pricing strategy and promotion that we knew, coming from the channel, we knew would work. And so we’ve got a multi-tier channel program. We’re able to do volume opportunities, jam programs, and deal reg, all of that. ROBERT DUTT: You sat in the distributor’s chair for a long time. And as you point out, you were on the partner side for a while before that. How does that background inform the way you operate a vendor today? What kind of distribution and partner lessons, as well as the overall insights that you mentioned bringing in with the team, does that kind of background in distribution apply to how Plugable goes to market today? LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: That’s a great question. Some of it might just be muscle memory, but I think I understand what makes both the service provider MSP and the distributor tick. And so I think we’re trying to make sure that we’re a really good partner to both of those constituents and try to deliver what they need and work with them in the way that they want. Even if you’re making price changes, for example, with the distributor, you know to do that at a timing that works with them. So we’re trying to be easy to work with. ROBERT DUTT: Price changes in a timely fashion in 2026 might be a little bit of a different discussion than it was a few years ago, but… LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: Well, we went through the pandemic and that was kind of chaotic times. And we’re entering into a whole new chaotic time, really driven by AI. But anyway, you were asking about price changes. ROBERT DUTT: No, I was just making the observation that it’s certainly a different beast this year as a result of AI and RAMageddon and all that fun stuff that’s going on. LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: Oh, absolutely. I mean, I was just… our founder and chief technology officer is over in Asia. He’s been over there for quite a while and it’s evolving. It’s an evolving story, but there are component level shortages that are beginning to rear, even more than I think people understood, and more than just the memory. So it’s where the pandemic we knew was going to end. We knew that it was a peak and valley and the demand and the constraint, but this is going to be sustained, at least for the foreseeable future. ROBERT DUTT: Grab your helmet, folks. LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: That’s right. Fasten your seatbelt. ROBERT DUTT: A lot of folks in the solution provider community and MSPs are hyper-focused on SaaS, on cybersecurity, on cloud, on AI. Sometimes I think they think of peripherals as an afterthought, something that gets tacked on there. Why should they be paying more attention to this space? What are the opportunities or where are the margin dollars that they might not realize they’re leaving on the table in a deal if they’re not thinking about the kind of stuff that you guys are bringing to market? LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: Yeah, that’s a great question because, I mean, let’s face it, peripherals are not that sexy until somebody really realizes they need them. So you’ve got a few things happening, right? The modern desk is being disrupted, as we mentioned, by AI, but also by the demand for productivity. People are using more applications than ever, so they need multi-screens. So just at the very core, you get a new laptop because you had to upgrade it for AI or just for Windows 11. Now you need new peripherals. But those are also… you’re adding more devices, more screen space. And that screen is probably running… one of them is probably running AI. And so the modern desk could be anywhere. It could be hybrid, in a hybrid environment in terms of work. And then every office you go into, I defy you to find one that is 100% one brand, one GPU, one set of devices that you have to connect to. So let’s just assume that 95% of the environments are hybrid in some way. That’s what third-party docking station companies like ours do best. We work in a mixed environment because we have to work and test deeply for compatibility. Where if you’re buying the bundle, the OEM plus the OEM dock, that’s great for that particular one use. But if you’re in a hybrid environment, you’re plugging in different devices, is it going to work? Are you going to lose productivity? Are you going to have a poor customer experience? So there’s a lot of demand and complexity that’s being added to the modern desk. And the IT department, they don’t have the capacity to deal with that. They don’t have the time or the capacity. And so we also take those calls from the channel, we take the calls from the end user. “Doesn’t work?” We take them locally. ROBERT DUTT: I think that points out an interesting side of things that I hadn’t really thought of. My first thought is kind of as an upsell opportunity for a partner who’s selling a solution, selling hardware, tag on the peripherals to build a total deal size and hopefully raise TCO as well. But it sounds like you’re saying there’s an opportunity to potentially, if done right, offload some of the inevitable help desk tickets that come with, “My monitor won’t turn on,” or, “Well, when I’m plugged into this thing, it feels like my data transfer is slower than it is, even though it’s the same kind of connector.” Well, no, it’s not. It’s actually USB. It’s all USB-C, but that one, you’re used to Thunderbolt 3 or 4, and this is something lower. So it sounds like there’s a cost reduction opportunity there too. LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: Yeah. I mean, as a business leader, I also had to pay for help desks in my P&L. And so I can attest to the fact that I’ve got those people busy trying to do rollouts or IT upgrades, or I don’t want them working on these little minor things, but I also don’t want my staff not being able to get connected. And there are stats that say people lose five, seven minutes every time they try to connect to a meeting, especially if they’re running in. So yes, I’m talking the productivity and user experience and cost savings, but also you mentioned the channel margin. And we do offer a higher margin. That’s something that if the channel partner is not thinking about the margin opportunity by just adding peripherals. And then when you add third-party peripherals… ROBERT DUTT: Let’s talk about the current situation, the recent investment from Acer Gadget. Tell me a bit about how that partnership came about and what does it mean for you guys in terms of R&D and roadmap and where things go. LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: Yeah, that’s great. We were so excited. Both parties just really are so complimentary. They’re global. They’ve got a global footprint. They’ve got brand halo that we really were pleased to partner with. And then supply chain stability, opportunity to access even a broader supply chain. And for Acer Gadget and Acer, we represent an agnostic, highly compatible device that could work in their environments, as well as a B2B and an e-commerce company and innovation. Some of the innovation that we’re doing, they really appreciated, specifically around the Thunderbolt 5 AI enclosure and some of that innovation. So we consider it more of a strategic partnership than we do a finance partnership. Although there is benefit there as well, which helped fund the field team that we’re announcing that we’ve hired. That’s for an example. ROBERT DUTT: It sounds like you say Acer values the agnosticism, as you describe it. That sounds like Plugable remains and the strategy is to remain pretty strictly vendor-neutral when it comes to docking and connectivity. LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: Absolutely. They would like the brand to remain agnostic. ROBERT DUTT: You already mentioned the AI enclosure. You mentioned how AI is changing the desktop. How are you guys thinking about where AI is at now and where it’s going in the future in terms of what it means for what you do and where you see Plugable? LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: Yeah, again, I think the modern desk is completely being disrupted and there’s so much more demand on it. AI PCs right now don’t have the power to run local models. What we’re seeing is in the cloud, there’s billions of dollars being spent on AI in the cloud and there’s going to be a lot of use case for that. But as we move to privacy, and privacy almost seems like it’s a little bit secondary right now. People are racing to leverage AI, but at some point there’s going to be big news. People will focus a little bit more on the privacy piece and what needs to stay local. You’ve got the capability of the hardware getting better and the GPUs being able to manage more, but also the models. The models are becoming more optimized. At some point, you’re going to have this come together where local is going to be a real option for people. It’s somewhere between now and 18, 24 months, it’s going to become more mainstream where there’s going to be repeatable or local workflows that need to be local. It could be because of token usage, it could be just because of privacy, but it’s going to be there. We wanted to get ahead of it. We’ve been on the bleeding edge of AI for our own company and we’ve got a really interesting roadmap, but the first launch was our Thunderbolt enclosure where we offered two solutions. One was the one for developers where you build your own local AI, and then we built an enterprise version where it’s intended to be plug-and-play AI. We’ve got a whole software stack and we wrote a chat harness. People in the channel can adopt this to drive a use case for AI and maybe give themselves an opportunity to have a seat at the table for the broader AI spend because use cases right now are where we’re not seeing successful proof of concepts. ROBERT DUTT: I guess from a peripheral point of view, it’s become an accepted and normal thing for docking to potentially include storage on board or directly connected. Why not have some processing as well and get into that AI boost? Then hopefully, I’m guessing the logic is I can have a less beefy machine hooked up to that and still get the better AI outcomes. LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: That’s right. It works today with the Windows PC that you have where, if you were going with… first off, it’s 50 times more powerful than an AI PC. It depends what you’re trying to run. You can chat on an AI PC. You can’t run models. If you wanted to buy then a local solution like a DGX Spark, for example. Those are nice. They’re all built in one, but you have to use Linux. So you’ve got to add another operating system and it’s not modular. I know a lot of companies are trying to figure out when and how they get in and they don’t want to spend and then not be viable in the next couple of years. So ours is a modular solution. It works with the PC you have. It depends on the use case, what you’re trying to do. ROBERT DUTT: Given your roots, I have to ask about the distribution strategy in Canada. You said one of the first steps was to lock down what you want to do in distribution. Where are you at in Canada today and how are you approaching getting products into the hands of Canadian partners and getting in front of them and letting them know what you guys are up to? LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: Being here in Canada, we have about a third of our company population is Canadian. We’re nicely straddling North America as a North American company. So right now we’re in Ingram and we’re in the works of launching another distributor and we’re expanding our channel here. As part of our expanding a new field team, we also expanded our channel team. ROBERT DUTT: What is the end… I imagine given what you said it’s probably a pretty broad array, but what does the ideal Plugable partner look like? What are some of the common threads for a successful partner for you? LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: Well, it’s changing with the AI solution because with the AI solution, it’s got to be a partner probably within the Global 1000 that has an AI consulting development already because the beauty of that is it needs a channel partner to hook up all the data through MCP. They’ve got to integrate it and support it. But most of our partners are traditional partners. If you name one, we’re probably being sold by them. We initially started out where partners that had more of an e-commerce play, we were doing very well there, and then it’s just continued to expand. ROBERT DUTT: Last one for me. You’ve touched on this a little bit with the AI side of things, but what are the main priorities for Plugable over the next 12 to 18 months in terms of both building the market and the product roadmap? And I guess finally, your message to Canadian partners who might be hearing about Plugable for the first time? LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: Ah, let’s unpack that. So what’s on the roadmap? Well, with this partnership with Acer Gadget and Acer, we will be expanding our product line. In the past we had to kind of choose an either-or and we spent a lot of time on innovation last year. Well, now we can do both. And so we’re going to be launching more new products this year than we have in a while. So we’re pretty excited about that. We want to continue to expand our footprint globally and we now have a path to do that faster. So basically they’re enabling us to accelerate our strategy. And then if I were a Canadian partner, what’s Plugable? I think what we’re told by the channel partners we work with is that A, we bring in more new business than most of our competitors because we’re being asked for by their customer. And B, we have the lowest return rate because it just works. And I really believe that that’s our digital native being born on Amazon. You live and die by your reviews. And if you don’t have this whole cycle process of taking the feedback, improving, improving, re-spinning and making sure that you’re listening to the customer’s user experience feedback and improving it, you’re not going to do well. So we bring that to a business-grade solution. So I think we’re low friction for a partner. ROBERT DUTT: Fascinating, especially fascinating as things continue to develop in terms of what you’re able to add to the PC as AI models get closer to the machine. Lynn, fascinating catching up and good luck with Plugable. LYNN SMURTHWAITE-MURPHY: Thank you so much. It’s been great to catch up. ROBERT DUTT: There you have it, Lynn Smurthwaite-Murphy from Plugable. I’d like to thank Lynn for her time. And as always, thank you for listening. It’s fascinating to hear how a company weaponizes its Amazon background. Usually the consumer origin is something vendors tend to try to hide when they pivot to the channel, but Lynn makes a compelling case that surviving the consumer review gauntlet creates exactly the kind of bulletproof hardware that MSPs need. And that Thunderbolt 5 AI enclosure is definitely something to keep an eye on as we all try to figure out the hardware realities of this AI wave.

Episode OverviewOn this Central PA Fishing Report from The Articulate Fly fly fishing podcast, host Marvin Cash checks in with George Costa of TCO Fly Shop in State College, Pennsylvania, for a late summer conditions update. Water levels across the region are running well above the usual late summer norm thanks to a wet summer, keeping trout streams fishable throughout the day even as afternoon action remains the slowest window. Costa reports Tricos are still bringing fish up in the mornings, while evening hatches of caddis, olives and the season's first Isonychias round out the dry fly picture. With water levels up, terrestrials such as beetles, ants and crickets are the top producers, fished on a dry-dropper rig with small nymphs like zebra midges, perdigons and Greenie Weenies below. Streamer fishing has also been productive during low-light morning and evening windows. Costa notes that trout fishing is in unusually good shape for this time of year, avoiding the typical low, hot and stressful late summer conditions. Beyond the trout report, Costa shares that the smallmouth bite has been strong on the high water, particularly around the Juniata River, with anglers finding good topwater action by working the banks. He also previews TCO's transition into fall and winter, including new product arriving, seasonal sales and a full slate of fall and winter classes coming to the shop's website in the coming weeks.Key TakeawaysHow to target Central PA trout during high, late summer flows by fishing dry-dropper rigs with terrestrials on top and small nymphs underneathWhen to fish for the best dry fly action, focusing on morning Trico windows and evening caddis and Isonychia hatchesWhy streamer fishing is producing right now when fished during low-light morning and evening hours rather than middayHow to find smallmouth bass action on the Juniata River by working the banks with topwater flies during elevated flowsTechniques & Gear CoveredCosta's go-to approach for elevated, late summer flows is a dry-dropper rig, pairing terrestrial patterns like beetles, ants and crickets on top with small nymphs such as zebra midges, perdigons and Greenie Weenies below. Dry fly anglers can also find morning Trico action on Penns Creek and the Little Juniata, along with evening hatches of caddis, olives and early-season Isonychias. For anglers willing to fish low light, streamers are producing a decent bite in the early morning and evening hours. On the smallmouth side, Costa points anglers toward topwater flies worked tight to the bank on the Juniata River, where elevated flows haven't slowed the bite.Locations & SpeciesThis report centers on Central Pennsylvania's trout waters, including Penns Creek and the Little Juniata, which are running high and cool after a wet summer, keeping fishing viable through the middle of the day despite a typical afternoon lull. Wild and stocked trout remain the primary target, with morning Trico and evening caddis, olive and Isonychia hatches providing consistent dry fly opportunities. Costa also highlights a strong secondary smallmouth bass fishery on the high water of the Juniata River, where anglers working the banks are finding good topwater action despite the elevated flows.FAQ / Key Questions AnsweredWhat are current water conditions on Central PA trout streams in late summer?Water levels are running well above the typical late summer norm thanks to a wet summer, and temperatures have stayed relatively stable without the usual late summer spikes. Costa still recommends checking stream temperatures in the afternoons, but overall conditions have allowed for fishing throughout the day.When is the best time of day to fish Central PA streams right now?Mornings and evenings are producing the most consistent action, with Tricos bringing fish up early and caddis, olives and Isonychias showing in the evening. Afternoons remain the slowest window, so Costa recommends sticking to the low light hours.What flies should anglers use for late summer trout in Central PA?Costa recommends a dry-dropper rig with terrestrials like beetles, ants and crickets on top, paired with small nymphs such as zebra midges, perdigons and Greenie Weenies underneath. Streamers are also working when fished during low light morning and evening periods.How is the smallmouth bite on the Juniata River right now?The smallmouth bite has been great despite elevated flows, with anglers working the banks and finding solid topwater action. Costa expects the bite to keep improving as water levels drop.Related ContentS8, Ep 58 - Central PA Fishing Report: George Costa's Summer Strategies for SuccessS8, Ep 59 - Pennsylvania Smallmouth Report: Captain Brian Shumaker's Late Summer StrategiesS7, Ep 70 - The Dog Days of Summer: Trico Tactics in Central PA with George CostaS8, Ep 61 - Smallmouth Chronicles: Matt Reilly's Secrets to Success in SW VirginiaView all Central Pennsylvania Fishing Reports with George CostaConnect with Our GuestFollow TCO on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.Follow the ShowFollow The Articulate Fly on Facebook, Instagram, Threads and YouTube.Follow our Substack newsletter for episode updates, tips and resources.Support the ShowShop through our Amazon link to support the podcast.Join our Patreon community to support the show.If you are in the industry and need help getting unstuck, learn more about our consulting options.Subscribe & AdvertiseSubscribe to the podcast in your favorite podcast app.Think our community is a good fit for your brand?

Performance thinking sales enablement is about more than training sellers. JD Singh argues that sales strategy only matters when it changes what sellers actually do. So how do you turn strategy into daily sales behavior? JD Singh, SVP & Global Head of Sales, Enterprise Solutions at S&P Global, joins Harry Kendlbacher to unpack how sales leaders can scale these behaviors without relying on a handful of “super sellers.” They explore why negotiation starts before price, why generic knowledge can kill an executive meeting, and how building the ROI case with the customer can change the entire sales conversation. JD also shares why frontline managers are critical to making sales transformation stick, and what he means by “industrialising” sales performance. ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00: The real challenge of building a customer first sales culture 01:35: Why merged sales teams struggle to share one commercial identity 06:37: Customer centricity without sacrificing margin 09:32: Why negotiation starts before the price conversation 14:30: From vendor to trusted business advisor 19:08: How to industrialise sales performance and make change stick 23:32: Building the ROI business case with the customer What you'll hear about • Why sales leaders need to replace individual “super seller” dependency with repeatable frameworks • How treating negotiation as a continuous process changes the way sellers approach customers • Why generic knowledge can lead to a very short executive meeting • How frontline managers, playbooks, leading indicators, and continuous reinforcement make sales enablement actually stick • Why customer-provided data can make an ROI business case far more powerful About JD Singh JD Singh is an experienced sales management strategist with 22+ years of experience driving sales growth and leading high performing teams.

In July 2003, 34-year-old Shawn Johnson was in New Orleans for a conference. And he did WHAT ANY OF US WOULD DO and tacked on a few days for a little bit of fun. On his last night in town, he found himself at an infamous bar called The Dungeon where he met a group of people who he invited back to his hotel room to fill the hot tub with Champagne and continue the party. Again, like any of us would do. However, Shawn would, tragically, be found dead in the room the following morning. On the walls of the room were ripped up and torn out pages from the bible. And on the bed, the creepiest homemade doll - WITH REAL HUMAN HAIR - that was ever created. The search for Shawn's killers was a mess. But in the end, some sort of justice prevailed. But oh my god, can everyone take it down a notch? Find and watch "Blood on Bourbon Street" on HuluLOOKING FOR MORE TCO?

Host Fabian Alefeld interviews Professor PS Lee, Head of National University of Singapore Mechanical Engineering & Program Director of STDCT, and founder of CoolestDC, about heat as a key constraint in AI infrastructure as data centers shift from CPU-heavy to GPU-dense systems with higher power density, hotspots, and bursty workloads. Lee explains why cooling must be treated as an integrated “chip to grid” system spanning cold plates, racks, CDUs, piping, controls, and operations, and discusses single-phase versus two-phase direct-to-chip liquid cooling and the added need for condensation in closed loops.  Professor Lee describes how additive manufacturing (AM) enables complex fin structures and unibody cold plates that reduce leakage risk, lower junction temperatures (~10°C), cut pumping power (60–70%+), and reduce material use, while requiring TCO evaluation. At NUS's live testbed (22 liquid-cooled racks, ~500 kW), AM cold plates are being deployed and show promising thermal, power, and compute-performance improvements; future work includes two-phase cooling and broader system-level heat rejection, warm-water operation, and waste-heat reuse, plus a discussion of challenges and potential AM roles in space-based data centers. 02:13 Meet Professor Lee 05:26 Chip To Grid Cooling 10:22 Liquid Cooling Maturity 14:15 Two Phase Explained 18:12 Cold Plate Tradeoffs 20:40 AM Unibody Cold Plates 24:41 Benchmarking AM Gains 30:18 AM For CDUs 34:13 Inside STDC Testbed 38:09 Reliability And Leakage 39:00 Next Phase Roadmap 42:31 Orbital Data Centers

President Donald Trump signed a national security memorandum Wednesday that lays the groundwork for private sector companies to take a larger role in helping law enforcement carry out offensive hacking operations against transnational criminal organizations. The White House said sustained fraud and other cyber-enabled campaigns from transnational criminal organizations (TCOs) warranted the memo, and cited a fraud-focused executive order from March as only the first step. ”This memorandum expands the fight against TCO-perpetrated cybercrime by incorporating the ingenuity of the private sector,” it reads. Under the memorandum, a federal coordination center “shall create, manage, and maintain a Program to authorize Participating Companies … to conduct Cyber Surveillance Operations and Cyber Effects Operations against foreign Cyber-Enabled Transnational Criminal Organizations (CE-TCOs), under the control and oversight of the Federal Government“ that would be “part of lawful investigatory, protective, or intelligence operations carried out by Federal law enforcement.” Participating companies would have to sign contracts with the Justice Department or Department of Homeland Security to “undergo rigorous vetting.” The Department of Veterans Affairs has proposed expanding its contract with Oracle Center for electronic health modernization because it will soon run out of money, a contract update posted Tuesday shows. VA would be increasing the overall contract ceiling, already at a staggering near $10 billion, and extending the potential period of performance by three years due to the “unanticipated complexity of the effort,” contracting documents said. “Due to unanticipated complexities in deploying this system, extensive site-specific customizations, as well as the other factors … VA has reached the current contract ceiling sooner than originally planned,” the documents said. “VA anticipates using the remaining ceiling by the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 and thus requires an increase.” While the new ceiling value is redacted in the documents, they did say the estimated value is “based on historical work executed to date, the standard deployment model, and all other requirements necessary to deploy and sustain the EHR under the approved accelerated deployment schedule, which is required to meet VA requirements and Veteran's needs.” The VA said “technical glitches impacting use of the system,” training issues, clinical gaps or functionality errors “with potential impact on patient safety,” and COVID-19 restrictions on on-site deployment delayed the modernization, and it cannot be fully accomplished in the remaining time.

Patrick Moorhead and Daniel Newman cover Tesla and SpaceX's $16.8 billion TerraFab chip factory, Samsung's zHBM debut at FMS 2026, a week of frontier model launches, and a simulated debate for "The Flip" over whether custom silicon will capture the majority of AI workload dollars by 2028. The episode closes with earnings from SpaceX, Palantir, AMD, Astera Labs, IonQ, and Lattice Semiconductor. The handpicked topics for this week are: 1. TerraFab Breaks Ground in Grimes County, Texas: Moorhead and Newman dig into Tesla and SpaceX's approved $16.8 billion TerraFab chip factory near Texas A&M, where Intel is confirmed as a digital foundry partner despite minimal SEC disclosure so far. Moorhead raises the open question of who handles the analog side of production that Intel doesn't cover, and Newman points to Musk's track record of hitting ambitious goals years behind his original stated timelines. Both hosts frame the investment as a genuine step toward expanding domestic chip manufacturing. (The Decode) 2. Samsung's zHBM Headlines a Blockbuster Memory Show at FMS 2026: The hosts cover the Future of Memory and Storage show in Santa Clara, where Samsung's BVNAND and zHBM concepts headlined alongside new announcements from Kioxia, SanDisk, and SK Group's high-bandwidth flash spec through OCP. Pat traces the industry's swing from oversupply and negative margins to today's memory shortage, driven by AI demand that has grown 5-10x faster than expected. Daniel adds that stacking memory directly on the accelerator, as zHBM proposes still needs to solve for the physical constraints of heat before it becomes production-ready. (The Decode) 3. Three Frontier Model Launches Land in a Single Week: Alibaba shipped Qwen 3.8 Max, DeepSeek released V4 Flash at 14 cents per million tokens, and Meta debuted its first coding agent, prompting a discussion on how fast the frontier is moving. Newman argues every company will need a new benchmark built around operational workloads and real-world token efficiency. He points out that Chinese model usage and frontier lab revenue are both climbing simultaneously, and makes the case that healthy frontier labs are essential to funding the open source models built in their wake. (The Decode) 4. Anthropic and AMD Both Make Moves on Custom Silicon: Anthropic confirmed it's developing custom AI chips, reportedly with Samsung and reportedly Broadcom. AMD announced its acquisition of Taalas, a company that etches model weights directly into silicon for major inference speed gains. Patrick traces his own multi-year prediction that heterogeneous computing would become standard, pointing to Google's TPU program as proof it can work at scale. Daniel frames both moves as evidence that AI companies are racing to control total cost of ownership (TCO) as memory and compute costs keep climbing. (The Decode) 5. The Flip: Will Custom Silicon Capture the Majority of AI Workload Dollars by 2028? Patrick argues every frontier lab is now pursuing vertical integration, citing Anthropic's new chip program, AMD's acquisition of Taalas, and NVIDIA's $20 billion license of Grok's inference technology as evidence the shift toward specialized silicon has become a step function. Daniel counters that every lab building custom silicon is simultaneously signing record contracts with NVIDIA and AMD, arguing that compute itself functions as the real moat regardless of chip architecture. (The Flip) 6. SpaceX Posts 92% Growth in Its First Public Earnings Report: SpaceX's debut public earnings showed 92% growth, narrowing losses, and rapidly expanding AI compute revenue layered on top of its launch and satellite businesses. Daniel flags new AI deals with Google and Anthropic as driving much of that growth, while Pat highlights that the company's stated $100 billion run rate target depends heavily on December performance and questions how soon TerraFab related capex will hit the income statement. (Bulls and Bears) 7. Palantir Delivers Its Fastest Revenue Growth in Company History: Palantir posted 93% year-over-year growth and record commercial revenue, with CEO Alex Karp highlighting that no company at Palantir's scale has grown this fast before. Patrick points to the company's sovereign AI positioning as being well-timed given growing enterprise distrust of frontier model providers, and Daniel adds that 150% commercial growth is far outpacing other enterprise software peers. (Bulls and Bears) 8. AMD Posts Record Growth as Investors Expect Even More: AMD delivered record revenue and growth. Investors had priced in results closer to NVIDIA's historic beats, and capex nearly quadrupled without much detail on where the spending is going. Moorhead traces the increase to AMD building out Helios rack-scale systems ahead of shipping, and both hosts note the timing of Elon Musk's public NVIDIA endorsement landed awkwardly on AMD's earnings day. (Bulls and Bears) 9. Astera Labs Beats on Revenue and EPS as the Market Shrugs: Astera Labs beat on both top line and EPS, posting record growth off a still small base. Pat points out new CXL innovations unveiled at FMS as evidence of the company's position building connectivity infrastructure alongside Broadcom and Marvell. (Bulls and Bears) 10. IonQ Raises Guidance and Closes Its $1.8 Billion Skywater Acquisition: IonQ raised its FY26 guidance from $280 to $290 million and closed its Skywater acquisition, positioning the company as a vertically integrated quantum player across networking, sensing, and compute. Daniel notes IonQ is approaching a billion dollar annual run rate once Skywater is included, and highlights a new Anduril partnership as a notable expansion into defense. Patrick adds nuance to the "only quantum pure play with foundry assets" framing, noting other quantum companies maintain foundry relationships of their own. (Bulls and Bears) 11. Lattice Semiconductor Beats Across Revenue, EPS, and Guidance: Lattice beat on revenue, EPS, and guidance, growing 62% and closing its $1.65 billion AMI acquisition. Newman points to the company's data center AI segment growing 83% as FPGA content keeps expanding inside rack scale systems, and both hosts frame Lattice as approaching a billion dollars in annual revenue.

Episode OverviewGeorge Costa of TCO Fly Shop returns to The Articulate Fly fly fishing podcast for another Central PA Fishing Report with host Marvin Cash, checking in on mid-summer conditions across the region's limestone streams. It's a mixed picture: recent weekend rain has pushed the Little Juniata River high and essentially unfishable for the next few days, while Spring Creek, Fishing Creek and Penns Creek remain in solid seasonal shape with manageable flows.Costa reports classic mid-summer fishing, with mornings through late-morning and evenings producing the most consistent action. Tricos are showing sporadically, especially on Spring Creek, alongside a scattering of blue-winged olives and small quills. The terrestrial bite is picking up, with ants and beetles drawing steady interest from trout. Costa's go-to approach right now is a dry-dropper rig: a size 12 or 14 Chubby Chernobyl or beetle pattern up top with a small ant or Greenie Weenie dropped underneath, a setup that pulls fish on both the dry and the nymph.Beyond the stream report, Costa previews TCO's free Fly Fishing and Outdoor Festival this weekend at the Boiling Springs shop on Children's Lake, plus ongoing summer sale pricing as the shop transitions its inventory toward fall. He also flags a strong smallmouth bass bite on Pennsylvania's bigger rivers, including good topwater action despite elevated flows on the West Branch and the Juniata.Key TakeawaysHow to fish Central PA limestone streams during mid-summer high-water conditions by targeting Spring Creek, Fishing Creek and Penns Creek while avoiding a blown-out Little JuniataWhen to be on the water for the best mid-summer dry fly action, focusing on first light through 10 or 11 a.m. and again in the eveningWhy a dry-dropper rig combining a size 12 or 14 Chubby Chernobyl or beetle with a small ant or Greenie Weenie dropper is an effective search strategy right nowHow to identify a viable mid-summer smallmouth bass alternative on Pennsylvania's larger rivers when trout water runs highWhen to expect terrestrial patterns like ants and beetles to outperform sparse trico and olive hatches on Central PA streamsTechniques & Gear CoveredCosta's core mid-summer strategy centers on a dry-dropper rig built around a size 12 or 14 Chubby Chernobyl or large beetle pattern as the top fly, with a small ant or Greenie Weenie dropped off the back to cover both surface and subsurface feeders. He notes that most of the action is currently coming on the dropper rather than the top fly, though occasional risers will still take the dry. On the hatch front, sporadic tricos, a handful of blue-winged olives and small quills round out the surface options, while the terrestrial bite on ants and beetles continues to build as summer progresses. For the smallmouth side of the report, Costa points anglers toward topwater presentations on Pennsylvania's bigger rivers as an alternative when trout streams are running high.Locations & SpeciesThis report centers on Central Pennsylvania's limestone spring creeks, with Spring Creek, Fishing Creek and Penns Creek all holding good seasonal flows and cool enough temperatures to fish through the heart of summer, while the Little Juniata River is running high and unfishable following recent weekend rain. Wild trout are the primary target across these limestone waters, with dry-dropper presentations and terrestrial patterns proving most effective during the current mid-summer conditions. Costa also highlights a secondary smallmouth bass opportunity on Pennsylvania's larger river systems, including the West Branch and the Juniata, where elevated flows haven't stopped a strong topwater bite from producing quality fish.FAQ / Key Questions AnsweredWhat is the best time of day to fish Central PA limestone streams in mid-summer?Costa recommends targeting first light through roughly 10 or 11 a.m., along with the evening hours, as these windows have consistently produced the best action during the current mid-summer stretch. Midday fishing tends to slow considerably once temperatures peak.Why is the Little Juniata River currently unfishable?Recent weekend rain blew out the Little Juniata and pushed flows high enough that Costa considers it essentially unfishable for at least the next couple of days, especially if additional rain arrives. Spring Creek, Fishing Creek and Penns Creek were not affected to the same degree and remain fishable.What rig works best for Central PA trout right now?Costa's go-to setup is a dry-dropper rig: a size 12 or 14 Chubby Chernobyl or large beetle pattern on top, with a small ant or Greenie Weenie dropped off the back. Most fish are currently coming on the dropper, though occasional risers will still eat the dry fly.Is smallmouth bass fishing a good option when trout streams are high?Yes. Costa reports that despite elevated flows on the West Branch and the Juniata, the smallmouth bite has been great, with a particularly strong topwater bite producing quality fish on Pennsylvania's larger rivers.What is happening at TCO Fly Shop this week?TCO is hosting its free Fly Fishing and Outdoor Festival this weekend at the Boiling Springs shop on Children's Lake, open to the public with no admission charge. The shop is also running summer sale pricing as it clears out inventory ahead of fall, with winter class schedules to be posted on the TCO website in the coming weeks.Related ContentS8, Ep 55 - Summer Secrets: George Costa's Central PA Fishing ReportS8, Ep 56 - Topwater Tactics: Captain Brian Shumaker's Pennsylvania Smallmouth ReportS8, Ep 51 - Summer Stream Insights: George Costa on Conditions, Patterns and Upcoming EventsS8, Ep 47 - Central PA Fishing Forecast: George Costa's Summer Stream InsightsS8, Ep 42 - Exploring Terrestrials and Summer Patterns: George Costa's Fishing ForecastView all Central Pennsylvania Fishing Reports with George CostaConnect with Our GuestFollow TCO on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.Follow the ShowFollow The Articulate Fly on Facebook, Instagram, Threads and YouTube.Follow our Substack newsletter for episode updates, tips and resources.Support the ShowShop through our Amazon link to support the podcast.Join our Patreon community to support the show.If you are in the industry and need help getting unstuck, learn more about our consulting options.Subscribe & AdvertiseSubscribe to the podcast in your favorite podcast app.Think our community is a good fit for your brand?

Episode OverviewIn this Central PA Fishing Report on The Articulate Fly fly fishing podcast, host Marvin Cash checks in with George Costa of TCO Fly Shop in State College, Pennsylvania, for an end-of-July conditions update. Costa reports Central Pennsylvania's trout streams running a touch above seasonal averages after a recent shot of rain, with solid dry fly and terrestrial action across the region.Water levels are in good shape for late summer, and while overnight temps have cooled into the 50s, Costa reminds anglers to keep checking midday stream temperatures on the region's bigger waters, where readings can still creep into the high 60s. On the bug front, Tricos are producing strong morning dry fly action on Spring Creek, with the prime window running roughly 8 a.m. to noon. Terrestrials are working well everywhere, with beetles and ants producing across the board and the season's first hoppers now showing up in the more meadowy stream stretches. Fish are readily eating Chubbies and small hoppers, and dry-dropper rigs — a Chubby up top with a nymph dropper underneath — are working well. For anglers looking to move bigger fish, Costa points to streamer fishing in low light, early and late, as water temperatures cool.Beyond the stream report, Costa previews TCO's Outdoor Fly Fishing Festival at the shop's Boiling Springs location on Children's Lake, coming up August 8th and 9th, and recaps a strong showing at the shop's recent Bass Thumb smallmouth tournament, which saw high, dirty water but plenty of big fish caught.Key TakeawaysHow to time the Trico hatch on Spring Creek for peak morning dry fly action, roughly 8 a.m. to noon.Why terrestrial patterns like beetles and ants are producing well everywhere right now, with the season's first hoppers now showing up in meadowy stream stretches.When to switch to streamer fishing for a better shot at moving bigger fish, ideally during low light in the early morning or evening.Why checking midday water temperatures still matters on bigger Central PA streams even when overall levels and clarity are favorable.When to plan a visit to TCO's Outdoor Fly Fishing Festival in Boiling Springs, running August 8th and 9th at Children's Lake.Techniques & Gear CoveredCosta's report centers on a classic late-July technique mix for Central Pennsylvania's trout streams: morning Trico dry fly fishing, terrestrial presentations through the day and streamer fishing during low light. Beetles and ants are producing well across the board, while the season's first hoppers are emerging specifically in meadowy stream stretches. Dry-dropper rigs — running a Chubby as the top fly with a nymph dropper underneath — are producing consistent results. For low-light streamer fishing, Costa notes that slightly cooler water temperatures in the early morning and evening make fish more willing to chase.Locations & SpeciesThis report covers Central Pennsylvania's trout streams generally, with Spring Creek specifically called out as producing strong morning Trico activity. Wild and stocked trout are the primary target throughout the region. Seasonally, this is a slightly atypical late-July window: stream levels running a little above seasonal averages and on the clear side following recent rain, overnight temperatures in the 50s, and daytime highs in the mid-70s to low 80s making midday water temperatures a point of attention on the region's bigger streams.FAQ / Key Questions AnsweredWhat are current stream conditions in Central PA in late July?Costa reports levels running a little above seasonal averages and on the clear side following a recent rain event. Overnight temperatures have been in the 50s with daytime highs in the mid-70s to low 80s, keeping overall stream temperatures favorable, though bigger streams can still creep into the high 60s by midday.When is the best time to fish Tricos on Spring Creek?Costa identifies roughly 8 a.m. to noon as the prime window for Trico dry fly action on Spring Creek, when hatch activity is strongest.What terrestrial patterns are working best right now in Central PA?Beetles and ants are producing well everywhere, and the season's first hoppers are starting to show up specifically in meadowy stream stretches. Costa notes fish are readily eating Chubbies and small hoppers, and dry-dropper rigs — a Chubby up top with a nymph dropper underneath — are working well.When should anglers switch to streamer fishing during summer trout season?Costa recommends streamer fishing during low light, early morning or evening, when slightly cooler water temperatures tend to make trout more willing to chase a moving fly.What TCO Fly Shop events are coming up this August?TCO's Outdoor Fly Fishing Festival takes place August 8th and 9th at the shop's Boiling Springs location on Children's Lake. Costa also recapped a strong turnout at the shop's recent Bass Thumb smallmouth tournament, where high, dirty water didn't stop anglers from catching some larger fish.Related ContentS8, Ep 51 - Summer Stream Insights: George Costa on Conditions, Patterns and Upcoming EventsS8, Ep 47 - Central PA Fishing Forecast: George Costa's Summer Stream InsightsS8, Ep 42 - Exploring Terrestrials and Summer Patterns: George Costa's Fishing ForecastS7, Ep 70 - The Dog Days of Summer: Trico Tactics in Central PA with George CostaView all Central Pennsylvania Fishing Reports with George CostaConnect with Our GuestFollow TCO on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.Follow the ShowFollow The Articulate Fly on Facebook, Instagram, Threads and YouTube.Follow our Substack newsletter for episode updates, tips and resources.Support the ShowShop through our Amazon link to support the podcast.Join our Patreon community to support the show.If you are in the industry and need help getting unstuck, learn more about our consulting options.Subscribe & AdvertiseSubscribe to the podcast in your favorite podcast app.Think our community is a good fit for your brand?

What does it take to manage one of the most unique fleet operations in government? In this episode of the Fleet Success Show, host Marc Canton sits down with Jeffrey Dickman, Equipment Shop Supervisor for the Arizona Department of Corrections, Rehabilitation & Reentry, to discuss the realities of maintaining a prison fleet with the help of inmate mechanics. Jeff oversees maintenance operations at one of Arizona's correctional facilities, managing everything from patrol trucks and SUVs to heavy equipment, backhoes, graders, bulldozers, and long-haul trucks. Together, Marc and Jeff explore how correctional fleets operate like miniature cities, the challenges of balancing mission-critical vehicle availability with limited budgets, and why fleet managers need better data to justify fleet size, replacement funding, and operational decisions. The conversation dives into topics every public fleet leader faces—including fleet right-sizing, vehicle replacement strategies, total cost of ownership (TCO), preventative maintenance compliance, technician shortages, chargebacks, budgeting, and using fleet data to build credibility with leadership. Whether you manage a city, county, state, university, corrections, or utility fleet, this episode offers practical lessons on how data-driven fleet management helps eliminate blind spots, improve vehicle availability, and strengthen leadership conversations. In this episode, you'll learn: How prison fleet maintenance programs operate with inmate mechanics The benefits of vocational training inside correctional facilities Why fleet right-sizing starts with understanding your organization's mission The difference between vehicle utilization and mission utilization How replacement planning reduces maintenance costs and technician demand Why total cost of ownership matters more than purchase price How to justify fleet budgets using operational data The importance of chargebacks and understanding true maintenance costs Strategies for improving preventative maintenance compliance How fleet managers can lead from any level of an organization If you're responsible for fleet operations, asset management, public works, corrections, or government fleet budgeting, this conversation is packed with actionable ideas you can implement immediately.   Speaker Bios Marc Canton Marc Canton is Vice President of Fleet Strategy at RTA Fleet and host of the Fleet Success Show. A former public fleet leader, Marc helps government and enterprise fleets improve fleet availability, reduce operational blind spots, and make data-driven decisions through modern fleet management strategies. With decades of hands-on fleet experience, he regularly speaks on fleet leadership, asset lifecycle management, maintenance operations, replacement planning, budgeting, and performance benchmarking. Marc works with fleet organizations across North America to build safer, more efficient, and more accountable fleet operations. Jeffrey Dickman Jeffrey Dickman is an Equipment Shop Supervisor with the Arizona Department of Corrections, Rehabilitation & Reentry, where he oversees fleet maintenance operations for one of the state's correctional complexes. He manages a diverse fleet that includes patrol vehicles, heavy equipment, utility vehicles, and long-haul trucks while leading a maintenance team consisting of staff technicians and inmate mechanics. Jeffrey is passionate about data-driven fleet management, preventative maintenance, replacement planning, and developing vocational skills that help prepare incarcerated individuals for successful careers after release.

Welcome to the award-winning FCPA Compliance Report, the longest-running podcast in compliance. In this episode, Tom welcomes back Matt Ellis to discuss a newly announced FCPA enforcement action involving Scoular Company. The case invoiced about $400,000 in payments labeled as “reinspection fees” to Mexican customs and food inspectors to move agricultural goods across the Mexico–U.S. border. border, allegedly generating over $6.5 million in avoided costs and raising concerns about cartel-linked beneficiaries. They discuss why customs and customs brokers are recurring high-risk areas in Mexico, how long-running employee involvement suggests broader controls and tone-from-the-top failures, and why these payments are not facilitation payments under Mexican law and given discretionary official acts. Ellis emphasizes analytics on customs documents and broker invoices, stronger third-party diligence beyond traditional screening to address cartel/TCO risks, and defensible governance for WhatsApp/off-channel communications. Despite no voluntary self-disclosure, the company received cooperation credit and a 25% fine reduction, and Ellis previews an ACI conference focused on cartels, TCOs, and compliance in Latin America.

Episode OverviewIn this Central PA Fishing Report on The Articulate Fly fly fishing podcast, host Marvin Cash checks in with George Costa of TCO Fly Shop in State College, Pennsylvania, for a real-time midsummer conditions update. A cooler, wetter stretch of weather has replaced the previous week's heat, giving Central Pennsylvania's limestone streams a welcome break heading into the weekend.Costa reports that Spring Creek, Penns Creek and Fishing Creek are all running a little above average and slightly off-color after a soaking rain earlier in the week, while the Little Juniata took on considerably more water and needs roughly another day to clear and become fully fishable again. Water temperatures have benefited from the cooler nights and days, though Costa flags the need to keep an eye on afternoon readings as they push toward the high 60s later in the season. On the bug front, Tricos are just getting started on Spring Creek and nearby waters, with the best window running from 8 to 11 in the morning, alongside lingering Cahills and golden stones on the dry fly side and Cahills and caddis in the evenings. Terrestrials, however, are the clear standout right now: ants, greenie weenies, beetles and crickets are producing well as summer patterns take over. Nymphing remains steady, and Costa notes a handful of anglers found success swinging streamers in the higher, off-color water this week. Costa also previews TCO's remaining summer calendar, including the Bass Thumb smallmouth tournament on the Susquehanna and Juniata Rivers and the outdoor fly fishing festival coming up in early August at Boiling Springs.Key TakeawaysHow to identify prime Trico water on Spring Creek and time the hatch for the 8 to 11 a.m. window when action is strongest.Why terrestrial patterns like ants, greenie weenies, beetles and crickets are outproducing traditional hatch-matching flies in Central PA right now.When to switch to streamers on Spring Creek, Penns Creek and Fishing Creek during periods of higher, off-color water.Why monitoring afternoon water temperatures matters as summer conditions push streams toward the high 60s.When to expect thunderstorm-driven flow spikes to subside on Central PA freestone and limestone water this time of year.Techniques & Gear CoveredCosta's report centers on a classic midsummer technique mix for Central Pennsylvania's limestone streams: morning Trico dry fly fishing on Spring Creek, terrestrial presentations (ants, greenie weenies, beetles and crickets) through the heart of the day and evening dry fly work with Cahills and caddis patterns. He also flags golden stones as a still-active dry fly option and notes that nymphing continues to produce consistent results across the region's waters. For anglers facing higher, off-color flows following rain events, Costa recommends switching to streamer presentations, which produced well for several anglers this week on water that had come up and lost clarity.Locations & SpeciesThis report covers Central Pennsylvania's core limestone and freestone trout fisheries: Spring Creek, Penns Creek and Fishing Creek, all running a little above average and slightly off-color following recent rain, plus the Little Juniata, which took on significantly more water and remains blown out but should clear within about a day. Wild and stocked trout are the primary target throughout. Seasonally, this is a midsummer transition window, with cooler-than-average temperatures providing a temporary reprieve from the prior week's heat, morning Trico hatches just getting underway and terrestrial season firmly established as the dominant daytime feeding driver.FAQ / Key Questions AnsweredWhen is the best time to fish Tricos on Spring Creek in Central PA?Costa reports Tricos are just getting underway on Spring Creek and other area streams, with the best window running between 8 and 11 in the morning. He notes this timing typically holds through the rest of the summer as the hatch builds.Why should anglers pay attention to afternoon water temperatures in Central PA during summer?As the season progresses, afternoon water temperatures on some Central PA streams will start pushing into the high 60s, which can stress trout. Costa advises anglers to check afternoon temps as the season progresses.What terrestrial patterns are working best right now in Central PA?Costa identifies ants, greenie weenies, beetles and crickets as the key terrestrial patterns producing results this time of year. He recommends these as the go-to searching patterns during the midsummer terrestrial window.Should anglers fish streamers when Central PA streams are up and off-color?Yes. Costa notes that a couple of anglers did well on streamers this week specifically because the water was up and running off-color, reinforcing that elevated, discolored flows are a good trigger to switch from dries or nymphs to streamer presentations.What TCO Fly Shop events are coming up this summer?The Bass Thumb tournament, a smallmouth bass event on the West Branch of the Susquehanna and the Juniata River, was running the weekend of this recording. TCO's outdoor fly fishing festival at Boiling Springs follows in the first week of August at Children's Lake Park.Related ContentS8, Ep 17 - Spring Awakening: George Costa on Central PA Fishing and Upcoming HatchesS7, Ep 70 - The Dog Days of Summer: Trico Tactics in Central PA with George CostaS8, Ep 47 - Central PA Fishing Forecast: George Costa's Summer Stream InsightsS8, Ep 42 - Exploring Terrestrials and Summer Patterns: George Costa's Fishing ForecastConnect with Our GuestFollow TCO on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.Follow the ShowFollow The Articulate Fly on Facebook, Instagram, Threads and YouTube.Follow our Substack newsletter for episode updates, tips and resources.Support the ShowShop through our Amazon link to support the podcast.Join our Patreon community to support the show.If you are in the industry and need help getting unstuck, learn more about our consulting options.Subscribe & AdvertiseSubscribe to the podcast in your favorite podcast app.Think our community is a good fit for your brand?

Pull over and gird your loins, Fam, because this one is NUTS and we have a lot of feelings bout it! In 2004, a 64-year-old man is found bloody, beaten AND YES NAKED behind a dumpster in Richmond Hills, Georgia. He claimed complete and total amnesia. As in he said he had no idea whatsoever who he was, how he got there, or anything else. EXCEPT FOR EXACTLY 22 MEMORIES THAT END AT SOME POINT IN THE YEAR 1978. Ummmm, OK! And thus begins the journey of trying to solve the mystery of this man who SWEARS HE'S NOT AN AX MURDERER... which is exactly what an ax murderer would say.FAM!

When Joanna Hunter died in  her home in 2011, it took the cops less than 30 minutes to rule the death a suicide. Mostly because her husband said that that's what happened. No crime scene was preserved and no investigation was done. The case was closed, but Joanna's family never accepted the suicide ruling. They knew all too well about the years of abuse Joanna had suffered at the hands of her husband and all of the times she tried to leave him. Her brother Joe, who was Joanna's best friend, is on a mission to proved that his sister was murdered AND OH MY GOD SO ARE WE FAM. We are unwell. Join us as we scream our way through this one.

On July 18, 2022, 29 year old Sania Kahn was gunned down in her Chicago apartment by her estranged husband. We...do not have the words for what a freaking BADASS Sania was. She was a photographer and influencer who shared with the world not just her incredible art, but also her struggles of being a first generation Pakistani-American woman trying to live up to the expectations of her parents while at the same time living our her dreams. This could have been a 49 part 274 hour long series based just on the number of friends who LINED UP to share stories of how wonderful and generous and hilarious AND TRULY  LITERALLY BRILLIANT Sania was. We have nothing to say here about the piece of S**T killer who murdered her in her prime, so you'll have to listen to the episode to hear us scream about him there. Ugh. OK, we got this, fam! Find and watch "TikTok Terror" on HuluLOOKING FOR MORE TCO?
