Shoot us a Text.Episode #1195: Toyota doubles down on hybrids with a $14B battery bet. Waymo hits the freeway ahead of Tesla in the autonomy race. And OpenAI unveils a “warmer” GPT-5.1 with customizable personalities and smarter responses.We'll be at Automobility LA at the LA Auto Show next Thursday, November 20 hosting the LA Auto Show Sessions. Thanks to our friends at Cars Commerce and Curbee for making it possible. 25% off registration with code MoreThanCars. https://laautoshow.com/meShow Notes with links:As U.S. EV momentum slows, Toyota is increasing its already big bet that hybrids, not full electrics, are the future of American green driving, anchored by a massive new battery plant in North Carolina.Toyota's new $14B plant in Liberty, NC is its largest U.S. battery investment yet.The facility will power hybrid production in Kentucky and Alabama, with plans for EV and plug-in hybrid output.Roughly half of Toyota's U.S. sales are already hybrids or EVs, led by hybrid-only Camry and Sienna models.The RAV4 will become 100% hybrid in 2026, with plug-in sales expected to quadruple.“Regardless of where the regulation goes, we will have the capacity to support our compliance needs,” said David Christ, Toyota North America brand chief.Waymo has a commanding lead in the autonomous vehicle race now launching the first-ever robotaxi service on highways across three major U.S. cities. The move distances it even further from rivals like Tesla and Zoox.New highway service rolls out in San Francisco, Phoenix, and Los Angeles, initially for limited riders.This milestone extends Waymo's reach to San Jose and introduces airport pickups at San Jose International.The Waymo Driver has shown 91% fewer serious-injury crashes compared to human drivers.Waymo now operates over 2,500 vehicles and has logged more than 100 million driverless miles.“The Waymo Driver does not get tired, does not lose focus and does not make emotional decisions behind the wheel,” said project manager Jacopo Sannazzaro.OpenAI has rolled out GPT-5.1, calling it a smarter, more engaging upgrade to its August release of GPT-5—complete with expanded personality settings and model matching enhancements.GPT-5.1 includes “Instant” and “Thinking” variants, optimized for speed, clarity, and task persistence.New personality presets include Candid, Quirky, Nerdy, Cynical, and more, adding tone flexibility.Users will begin to see model auto-matching and personalization tools in settings.The upgrade follows user backlash to GPT-5 and competition from Anthropic powering Microsoft tools.“We're well past the point of one-size-fits-all,” said Fidji Simo, OpenAI's CEO of Applications.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/
Thinking about buying your first real watch? Here's what the dealers won't tell you about ghost listings, fake prices, and why that "deal" you found online doesn't actually exist. Part II of Andy's conversation with Christian Bruhn from The Art of Time dives into the messy reality of buying luxury watches in 2025 — where online listings lie, auction prices mislead, and first-time buyers get burned by doing their own "research." What You'll Learn in This Episode: Ghost listings exposed: Why that Rolex Daytona you found online for $8K cheaper probably doesn't exist (and what luxury drop-shipping really means) The trust problem: How to find an honest watch dealer when everyone online claims to be an expert Watches as art, not commodities: Why buying for resale value is the wrong approach for your first luxury timepiece The secondary market advantage: How to get a better watch for 25-40% less than authorized dealer pricing (with full warranty transfer) First-time buyer mistakes: What guys get wrong when shopping for Rolex, Omega, Breitling, and other high-end watches Where to actually start: The 3 questions you need to answer before you spend $5K-$50K on a watch Key Quotes from Christian Bruhn: "You'll have individuals interested in a watch doing their own research, and their research leads them to ghost listings that aren't in stock and bottom auction pricing that isn't realistic. Then they come to me saying they want it for X, Y, and Z." "For first-time buyers, I would say trust the dealer. Trust the person doing this every day, because it's getting harder and harder to tell what's real online." "When you go into a boutique and walk outside, that watch settles into the secondary market and is now competing against every single boutique in the mall versus just the one you walked in." Why This Matters for First-Time Watch Buyers: If you're the guy who's always said "someday I'm gonna get a nice watch," this episode will save you thousands of dollars and massive headaches. Christian breaks down: How online watch pricing is flooded with fake listings for SEO purposes Why authorized dealer pricing doesn't reflect real market value The smart way to buy gold watches as an investment (hint: melt value matters) How to avoid the hype and buy what actually fits your style and lifestyle Christian Bruhn is a former 75th Ranger Regiment member who founded The Art of Time, a luxury watch dealership focused on authenticity, education, and helping collectors buy smart. He sources rare timepieces, navigates the secondary market daily, and calls out the BS that confuses first-time buyers.

The Poco a Poco Podcast with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal
Episode 271 - Fire, Desire, Theosis What do you really hunger and thirst for? As the friars continue through the Franciscan Lent, they dive deep into the Beatitude: "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied." This conversation is about holy desire, the kind that burns, refines, and draws us closer to God Himself. They unpack what it means to let go of lesser hungers, to purify our desires, and to rediscover the fire that leads to union with God. From St. Francis' radical poverty to our own longing for holiness, the friars remind us that this journey isn't about doing more, but actually about becoming more like Him. Join us as we learn to hunger for what truly satisfies, the very life of God alive within us. The Poco a Poco podcast happens because of many generous donors, including recurring monthly donations of any amount. Thinking about helping out? You can give at https://spiritjuice.org/supportpoco.

Broadcasting from Tallahassee, JB White delivers a fiery and wide-ranging RattlerGator Report that blends faith, politics, economics, and philosophy with his signature Southern wit. Reflecting on Veterans Day, JB opens with Stephen Miller's takedown of the Democrat shutdown before launching into a passionate defense of Trump's strategy and America's unstoppable momentum. He urges listeners to “think forward,” unpacking cultural decay, relationships in the age of AI, and how technology is reshaping human connection. The episode turns toward the future of finance, Bitcoin, Solana, and Peter Thiel's secret crypto playbook, arguing that decentralization is America's next revolution. JB connects it all to Trump's economic plan, student debt reform, and the coming battle against the City of London's globalist empire, warning of operators like Nick Fuentes and Candace Owens running interference for British power structures. He closes with faith and reflection, reminding listeners that America's moral and technological awakening must begin with personal responsibility, courage, and God.

The world record for fastest pit stop—a mere 1.8 seconds—was set by the McLaren F1 Team at the Qatar Grand Prix in 2023. It's an incredible feat of speed and choreography; a pit stop that fast can't happen without a team of people operating at peak human performance. But as Dan Keyworth explains, AI plays a crucial role, too. As the Director of Business Technology at McLaren Racing, Dan is responsible for helping the whole team perform at their best—and that starts with having the right tools. Whether it's the firehose of sensor data coming off a race car, video analysis of the pit crew in action, or marketing analytics for the next Grand Prix, AI helps the McLaren F1 Team make the right decisions—and make them fast.On this episode, Dan talks about the importance of getting simple answers from complex data, how they use Dropbox Dash, and why we shouldn't think of AI as labor replacement so much as laborious replacement.You can learn more about the McLaren F1 Team at mclaren.com/racing/formula-1.

STOP NEGATIVE SELF THINKING
STOP! Before you try to make this drink, you will need to purchase Blue Blazer mugs Where do I get Blue Blazer mugs you ask? Golden Age Bartending has a set of 2 you can purchase for about $50. www.goldenagebartending.com. Then go research fire safety! In this episode we are turning up the heat—literally—with one of cocktail story's most spectacular and dangerous drinks: the Blue Blazer. This flaming whiskey cocktail isn't just mixed, it's performed, as blazing liquid cascades between two metal mugs in a fiery arc that's as mesmerizing as it is risky. In fact, make this drink at your own risk – things can go sideways easy. We talk about what we did to keep things safe, but you need to do your homework too if you decide to try to make this one. Of course, we dive into the story of Jerry Thomas, the legendary 19th-century bartender who created this showstopper and quite literally wrote the book on bartending. His Blue Blazer became the grandfather of flaming cocktails and established the art of theatrical bartending that still captivates audiences today. Jules and I walk you through the technique, the proper equipment (those specialized Blue Blazer mugs exist for a reason), and—most importantly—the safety precautions you absolutely need to know before attempting this at home. Because while the Blue Blazer is undeniably impressive, it demands respect and caution. Whether you're a cocktail historian, a pyro enthusiast, or just curious about the drinks that pushed bartending into performance art, this episode illuminates the legacy of Jerry Thomas and the drink that proved cocktails could be both craft and spectacle. Blue Blazer recipe: You'll need 2 Blue Blazer mugs to make the drink and 2 different mugs (or Brandy snifters) to serve the drink. Ingredients (makes 2): 4 oz cask strength scotch 2 tsp of sugar 3 oz boiling water Steps Warm the scotch – it lights and stays lit easier Warm a separate brandy snifter or ceramic mug Lay down a damp towel and clear your area of any flammable materials Place your Blue Blazer mugs on the towel – this is your workspace In 1 of the METAL mugs, pour in your ingredients – leaving the other mug empty for now Light the drink on fire Carefully roll the mix between the Blue Blazer mugs 5 times. Keeping your hands away from the top of the handle (it' gets hot over the receiving mug). Place the empty mug over the flaming mug to put out the fire – once the fire is out you can continue to roll the drink between mugs to dissolve the sugar IMPORTANT: pour your cocktail into a new vessel – either a warmed brandy snifter or a ceramic mug. Otherwise, you WILL burn your lips on the Blue Blazer mugs Garnish with a lemon twist TIP: Fire and alcohol Thinking about purchasing a Klaris ice machine? You might need it for today's episode.

Thinking of splitting your next real estate deal 50/50? Think again.In this episode, I explain why equal partnerships often lead to unequal work, frustration, and broken deals. The 50/50 model sounds fair, but unless both partners bring equal experience, time, and skills, it usually fails. I break down better ways to structure partnerships—models that let you scale, protect your time, and get paid for the value you actually bring.

No Room for In-Between: Literal Thinking and Communication Ruptures In this raw and honest episode, Patricia (she/her) shares her ongoing challenges with neurodivergent miscommunication, community rupture, and the emotional toll of being misunderstood. From neighborhood conflicts to horse training lessons, from cancel culture to navigating friendships and travel as an autistic person, Patricia opens up about the messy, contradictory realities of life, belonging, and growth. Listeners will walk away feeling less alone in their struggles with relationships, self-advocacy, and embracing both discomfort and joy. WHAT YOU'LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE · Why Patricia didn't want to record this episode—and why she did anyway · The ongoing story of neighborhood rupture and the painful dynamics of miscommunication · How neurodivergent communication differences play into misunderstanding and conflict · The discomfort of being misunderstood as an autistic person who values precision and exactness · The struggle of wanting repair but receiving ongoing hurtful communication instead · Recognizing when "these are not our people" and finding peace in letting go · Cancel culture: when it's useful, when it's harmful, and Patricia's lived perspective · How language change matters—and conversations with her husband about accountability in speech · The empowerment that comes from horse training and facing fear with big draft horses · Lessons from working with animals: calm presence, assertiveness, and learning new leadership skills · Navigating differences in friendships around money, dining, and travel · The autistic push-pull between craving sameness and being invited into novelty · Strategies for managing overwhelm when faced with too many choices or new experiences · How safe friendships allow for authenticity and unmasking · The sadness and privilege of having barriers to change, novelty, and travel—and finding supportive companions · Building resilience through small trial runs and intentional fun · The importance of bumping up against resistance to live a fuller, lighter life · Patricia's reflections on aging, matching tattoos with her kids, and wanting to add more joy SOUND BITES · There are times when we need to speak up, and there are times when we need to let people misunderstand us and sit with the discomfort." · "If you're autistic, precision and exactness are high values—being misunderstood can feel unbearable." · "This isn't personal. This is about neurodivergent miscommunication. And that gave me relief—at least for a little while." · "I'm more than two-thirds through my life, and I want to whip it up a little bit. If you're going to do some fun stuff, you better do it soon." · "Sensitivity is nothing to apologize for. You are perfect exactly as you are in a world not made for us." SENSITIVITY IS NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR; IT'S HOW YOUR BRAIN IS WIRED You are not broken. You were shaped by systems that weren't built for you. You deserve rest, joy, and support exactly as you are. TOPICS COVERED (please adjust for addition of introduction) 00:00 Navigating Neurodivergent Communication Challenges 09:40 The Impact of Cancel Culture on Relationships 19:11 Finding Community and Connection 25:07 Embracing Change and Personal Growth PODCAST HOST Patricia Young (she/her) was a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 17 years, but she is now exclusively providing coaching. She knows what it's like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truthteller. Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), then learning she is AuDHD with a PDA profile, OCD and RSD, helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion. She created the podcasts Unapologetically Sensitive and Unapologetically AuDHD to help other neurodivergent folks know that they aren't alone, and that having a brain that is wired differently comes with amazing gifts, and some challenges. Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for neurodivergent folks that focus on understanding what it means to be a sensitive neurodivergent.

Lev Grinman and Daniel Cousin share how they built Doctors for Providers, a nationwide network that connects physicians with nurse practitioners and PAs seeking collaborative partnerships. What began as a simple response to constant requests from advanced practice providers has become a streamlined system that helps both sides work more efficiently and safely. Dr. Grinman, a neurologist and sleep specialist, and Dr. Cousin, a radiologist, explain how they identified a hidden demand in healthcare and turned it into a viable business model. They describe how the service works, why it offers physicians flexible nonclinical income, and what they've learned about entrepreneurship along the way from testing ideas and bootstrapping growth to balancing compliance and trust. Their story reveals how spotting a small but widespread problem can evolve into a scalable company and how physicians can leverage their expertise beyond the clinic to build real solutions for the medical community.

Some conversations invite us to slow down. To breathe differently. To step out of the rush of our lives and into the quieter places we often avoid — the ones where grief, memory, and healing wait patiently for us to catch up. Today's episode is one of those conversations. My guest, Barbara Wansbrough, didn't set out to write a book about grief. She set out to take a walk — one that eventually led her through forests, along coastlines, and into the tender terrain of losing her sister. The result is Wild Things: A Geography of Grief, a breathtaking collection of letters that reads like both a love story and a survival guide. In this episode, Barbara shows us that healing doesn't always arrive with dramatic breakthroughs. Sometimes it shows up in the rhythm of your strides, the feel of wind on your face, or the simple act of putting one foot in front of the other when the heart feels heavy. If you've ever found yourself in a season where life asks you to let go, to begin again, or to navigate a loss with no clear map — consider this your invitation. Let's step into the wild and see what it has to teach us. Come on in. Check out this amazing book! Wild Things: A Geography of Grief by Barbara Wansbrough In This Episode, You'll Also Learn… How walking can gently re-pattern grief in the body, creating space for clarity, calm, and emotional release. Why small, intentional rituals can soothe the soul more effectively than food, distraction, or "pushing through." How embracing the "wild" parts of grief can lead to unexpected strength, softness, and a deeper sense of belonging in your own life. Links Mentioned in the Episode: Check out this amazing book!

In August 2025, Polish researchers tested something nobody had thought to check: what happens to doctors' skills after they rely on AI assistance? The AI worked perfectly—catching problems during colonoscopies, flagging abnormalities faster than human eyes could. But when researchers pulled the AI away, the doctors' detection rates had dropped. They'd become less skilled at […]

Broadcasting live from his bedroom after a tech meltdown, JB White delivers a raw and fiery RattlerGator Report that moves from humor to high-level geopolitics without missing a beat. Coming off GART 10, he reflects on the energy, the panels, and the importance of “thinking forward” as America enters a new technological and spiritual era. JB rails against censorship and the distortion of free speech under hate-speech laws, arguing that it's part of a psychological war on discernment and masculinity. He dives into the “bullying” debate sparked at GART, ties it to cultural weakness, and connects global distractions, Zionism, Qatar, and the Jewish scapegoating narrative, back to what he calls the real power center: the City of London and MI6. Between sharp insights on Trump's long game, the Southern District subpoenas, and the moral duty of citizenship, JB blends faith, wit, and righteous frustration into one powerful monologue. Rounding out the episode, he plugs Soft Disclosure and MyPillow while reminding listeners to think forward and stay grounded in God, courage, and common sense.

My guest is Dr. Jennifer Groh, PhD, professor of psychology and neuroscience at Duke University. She explains how our brain encodes sights and sounds and integrates them so we can navigate and understand the world around us. She explains what thoughts really are and how what you focus on determines your thoughts, not just in that moment but your future thoughts too. We discuss this in the context of how to improve your level of focus and happiness and how to complete tasks and task-switch more effectively. We also discuss how you can rewire the neural circuits that underlie your default patterns of thinking and attention.
