Kelly is feeling better, but the anxiety from the steroids sure did a number on her. Luckily Lizz was there to step in and host a 4Runner tour to rave reviews. But now that she's feeling better, Kelly is ready to shop the Prime Day deals. The deals weren't the best, but she managed to get some great finds. One of those finds is a belt she needed for the influencer party both Kelly and Lizz are headed to this week. Does this mean they are fashion influencers now? If they are, Lizz has the perfect brooch! Speaking of brooches, they'll be perfect for a holiday outfit. Kelly is excited for most of the holidays, except the fall salad she perfected last year that could now kill her....  Kelly and Lizz continue to be enthralled with the current season of 'Dancing with the Stars' and have a lot to say about this week's episode. Did the right person go home? How much does personality matter more than dance ability? They'll talk about their favorite dances and the ones that creeped them out.  In Industry News, a list of the top 25 cars that could last 250,000 was released and the top four are Toyota vehicles. Then some unfortunate news as Kia announced the Soul will not be sold after 2025. Then in Ditch the Drive-Thru, Lizz is bringing back the parmesan asparagus and Kelly is making an easy carbonara.  Lastly, Kelly and Lizz celebrate the lives of more of Blake's Besties including the stories of Claire, Molly Grace, Jude and Violet.

PJ Accetturo went from traditional filmmaker to running a seven-figure AI video agency, creating viral content that's been viewed millions of times. He breaks down exactly how filmmakers can adapt to AI tools without losing their creative edge. This episode covers the specific workflow, tools, and mindset shifts needed to capitalize on what PJ calls "the biggest gold rush of all time." Key Takeaways AI tools like VO3 and ChatGPT can be learned in days, but filmmakers have a huge advantage because they already understand story, pacing, and what makes content compelling The opportunity is massive right now—PJ says it's "very easy to build a seven-figure agency" because brands need AI content but most agencies haven't adapted yet You don't need to abandon traditional filmmaking; many successful approaches involve pairing experienced directors with AI specialists to create hybrid workflows The key to viral AI content is being funny, self-aware about using AI, and creating content that surprises and delights audiences rather than boring them About PJ Accetturo PJ is a seasoned innovator in the TV and advertising space, having served as CEO for multiple media companies and bringing over 15 years of industry experience. He first gained recognition at 18 when National Geographic showcased his work, setting the stage for a career creating content for global powerhouses like Toyota, Red Bull, The Atlanta Braves, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. As a commercial director, he spent over a decade working with some of the world's biggest brands. In 2019, PJ demonstrated his knack for audience engagement by growing a YouTube channel from zero to one million subscribers in six months. He then turned his sights to long-form storytelling, raising millions to produce his original animated series, Ghosts of Ruin, where he served as writer and Executive Producer. That project saw him collaborating daily with an Oscar-nominated director, a two-time Emmy-winning showrunner, Hans Zimmer's music team, and an A-list voice cast featuring Rosario Dawson, Justin Long, Nathalie Emmanuel, and Tony Revolori. Motivated to shorten production timelines and reduce costs, PJ is spearheading new processes with generative AI. With a commitment to ethical data training, he is now working to create world-class media with AI-powered workflows. In This Episode  [00:00] Welcome to the show!

Very easy, very quickly." - PJ Accetturo "Winners only... to anyone who's not wanting to adapt quickly, like displacement's coming." - PJ Accetturo "Your greatest skill is that we know how to get exposure on a camera and frame a good shot, like that's going to be tough to build a business off of. But if you can know more strategy and understand story structure... that's our unique advantage." – Ryan Koral "Everyone in the AI industry that has attention right now, most of them are not traditionally filmmakers... but the opportunity here, if everyone doesn't know is like whether you yourself are a traditional filmmaker for 10, 15 years, you can learn the tools in a few days, two weeks max." - PJ Accetturo Guest Links Find PJ Accetturo online Follow PJ Accetturo on Instagram | X Check out PJ's newsletter - AI Filmmaking Links  FREE Workshop Available "How to Consistently Earn Over $100k Per Year in Video Production While Working Less Than 40 Hours Per Week" Join the Grow Your Video Business Facebook Group  Follow Ryan Koral on Instagram Follow Grow Your Video Business on Instagram Check out the full show notes

On July 24, 1997, 24-year-old Amy Wroe Bechtel set out for what should have been an ordinary afternoon near Lander, Wyoming. A rising athlete with Olympic dreams, Amy was in the middle of mapping the course for a 10K race she was organizing. By the end of the day, her white Toyota station wagon sat abandoned, her to-do list unfinished, and Amy herself was nowhere to be found. Despite a massive search effort that involved hundreds of people, cadaver dogs, and aircraft, no trace of Amy was ever recovered.If you are interested in bonus content for our show or in getting some Coffee and Cases swag, please consider joining Patreon.

Beyond business, Dave and his wife Suzette also lead Love 41, a nonprofit supporting communities in Rwanda, Mexico, and Texas.

This week, we share our impressions of the redesigned 2025 Toyota 4Runner. Now in its sixth generation, the 4Runner retains its body-on-frame platform, preserving its rugged off-road identity while introducing some modern updates. We break down what Toyota got right—like easier access and more comfortable seating—as well as where the redesign falls short. Plus, we answer audience questions about vehicle drive modes and which manufacturers make the best physical controls.   Test results here: https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/?EXTKEY=YSOCIAL_YT   Exclusive CR discount for Talking Cars viewers: https://www.consumerreports.org/jointalkingcars/?EXTKEY=YSOCIAL_YTT4?EXTKEY=YSOCIAL_YT   Talking Cars Archive: https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/cars-driving/talking-cars-podcast-archive-a1439738009/?EXTKEW=YSOCIAL_YT   2025 Toyota 4Runner: https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/toyota/4runner/2025/overview/?EXTKEY=YSOCIAL_YT   First Drive: 2025 Toyota 4Runner: https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/suvs/2025-toyota-4runner-review-a3128307508/?EXTKEY=YSOCIAL_YT   Toyota 4Runner by Generation: https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/toyota/4runner/?EXTKEY=YSOCIAL_YT   Toyota Brand Overview: https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/toyota/?EXTKEY=YSOCIAL_YT      Tested: Does Eco Mode Really Save Gas?: https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/fuel-economy-efficiency/does-eco-mode-really-save-gas-a6653523930/?EXTKEY=YSOCIAL_YT     SHOW NOTES:   0:00: Intro   0:18: 2025 Toyota 4Runner Overview   1:29: What we love about the 4Runner   11:49: What we dislike about the 4Runner   22:56: Audience questions   23:17: Question #1: What does the Econ drive mode actually do?   26:22: Question #2: Which vehicles have easy-to-use controls?

China's EV industry faces its biggest test yet as the December 31, 2025 deadline approaches for massive subsidy cuts. In this deep dive, I break down what's really happening behind the 40,000+ NIO ES8 orders that crashed their system, why companies like BMW, Toyota, and Tesla are recalling hundreds of thousands of vehicles despite better technology, and which EV manufacturers will survive when subsidies disappear.The numbers are staggering: purchase tax exemptions dropping from 30,000 to 15,000 yuan, delivery delays pushing into 2026, and consumer complaints up 37% year-over-year. But here's the twist - the companies recalling products might actually be the strongest players in the market.I analyze the real conversion rates behind inflated order numbers (hint: only 10-30% of "orders" convert to actual sales), the supply chain crisis hitting CATL and BYD Semiconductor with 24-hour overtime shifts, and why NIO CEO William Li warned Q1 2026 could see 50% demand collapse.This isn't just about NIO - this affects Tesla, BYD, XPeng, Li Auto, and every player in the world's largest EV market. When subsidies end, only companies with genuine technology advantages, sustainable cost structures, and corporate responsibility will remain standing.Key topics covered: China EV subsidy policy changes, NIO ES8 production capacity crisis, purchase tax exemption ending December 2025, automotive recall trends, supply chain challenges, order inflation in Chinese EV market, Q1 2026 demand forecast, battery swap advantages, and what separates surviving companies from failing ones.Whether you're invested in Chinese EV stocks, considering purchasing an electric vehicle, or tracking the future of automotive technology, this analysis explains what mainstream media won't tell you about the coming industry shakeup.NIO stock, China EV subsidies, electric vehicles China, NIO ES8, purchase tax exemption, Chinese EV market, Tesla China, BYD stock, EV investment 2025, automotive recalls, William Li NIO, battery swap technology, EV supply chain, Q1 2026 forecast, Li Auto, XPeng, China automotive policy, EV subsidy ending, NIO bull case, electric vehicle stocks, CATL battery, China NEV policy, EV market crash, automotive industry analysis, EV stock analysis, Chinese stocks, green energy investingTAGS (500 characters):

In this must-listen episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, host Sean V. Bradley and co-host L.A. Williams sit down with automotive veteran Jake Hales - Digital Operations Manager for Gee Automotive Group and advisory board member for Digital Dealer. With over 25 years of experience, Jake pulls back the curtain on how dealerships are transforming in the digital age and why this year's Digital Dealer Conference is a can't-miss event! “As an industry we don't have a technology problem. We have a utilization problem.” - Sean V. Bradley You'll get an inside look at how technology, AI, and digital innovation are reshaping the automotive industry… and why the smartest dealers are the ones investing in their growth, their teams, and their networks. But that's just the start. Jake also shares how Digital Dealer's revamped agenda is delivering more value than ever, with sessions designed to sharpen skills, expand connections, and equip attendees with strategies that can change the trajectory of their business! "The feedback was... we need to have more workshops. Because it's one thing to sit in a classroom and have people preach at you, it's another thing to get with the dealer next to you." - Jake Hales Ready to unlock your next level in automotive sales and leadership?

Don't miss your chance to be in the room where the future of automotive is being written: https://tinyurl.com/DSDD2025   Key Takeaways: ✅ The automotive industry must overcome its historical underutilization of technology by correctly setting up and managing CRM tools to enhance dealership operations. ✅ The Digital Dealer conference has undergone significant transformations to offer more hands-on workshops and concise, impactful presentations. ✅ Sales managers in particular need to leverage AI to streamline their responsibilities, which now encompass dealing with digital leads and customer interactions. ✅ Networking with industry peers and attending conferences can provide invaluable insights, practical solutions, and personal growth opportunities within the automotive sector. ✅ Embracing a forward-thinking approach with AI integration can greatly enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of dealership operations.   About Jake Hales Jake Hales is a seasoned automotive professional with over 25 years of experience. He has built a notable career spanning roles in retail sales, OEM operations with Toyota, consulting, and software delivery. Currently, Jake is the Digital Operations Manager at Gee Automotive Group, where he oversees digital transformations related to CRM and phone systems for a group of 40 dealerships. In addition, Jake serves on the advisory board for Digital Dealer, where he contributes his expertise to shape the future of automotive conferences.   Maximizing the Potential of CRMs: Harnessing AI, Innovation, and Conferences to Revolutionize the Automotive Industry Key Takeaways The automotive industry is not limited by a lack of technology but by its proper utilization and management. The upcoming Digital Dealer conference promises to revitalize and refocus learning and networking opportunities, featuring a new format aimed at more practical engagement. Artificial intelligence (AI) offers transformative possibilities, yet many current solutions overlook critical integrations and real-world dealership problems.   The Underutilization of Automotive CRM Systems For decades, the automotive industry has struggled not with a lack of technology but with effectively utilizing the technology it already possesses. Sean V. Bradley, a renowned expert in automotive sales, makes no bones about this: "Our industry has never had a deficiency of technology. Our industry has a deficiency to proper utilization." With 90% of all Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems not being set up or managed correctly, it's evident that the problem isn't technological capability but strategic implementation. CRMs should be the backbone of any dealership, providing a 360-degree view of customers, and leveraging data for both sales and service. Yet, the potential of these systems is frequently left untapped. As dealerships continue to struggle with lower sales numbers post-pandemic, the conversation pivots not just toward adopting new technology, but ensuring the mastery of what's already available. Bradley adds, "If we're not understanding it and we're not utilizing it, all we're doing is shuffling the deck." The implications of this are profound: for dealerships to remain competitive, they must move beyond merely possessing tools to mastering them. This means in-depth training, cross-departmental integration, and reevaluating the traditional dealership roles to foster a tech-centric culture that thrives on data-driven decision-making. Revamping the Digital Dealer Conference for Future Success In response to fluctuating attendance and shifting industry needs, the Digital Dealer conference has decided on a seismic reformation. In its previous iterations, feedback highlighted challenges with overcrowded vendor spaces and less focus on value. As Jake Hales, a digital operations expert and advisory board member for Digital Dealer, notes, the shift aims to address these concerns head-on with an upgraded format. "We need to have more workshops," Hales explains. The conference will transition into a dynamic hub of activity, featuring TEDx-style sessions for high-level insights and deeper, hands-on workshops for applied learning. This bifurcated approach allows for more intensive engagement on practical issues, breaking away from the traditional passive learning structure. "The challenge of having hour-long sessions is you do end up getting into minutiae," Hales states. With the introduction of compressed 25-minute TEDx sessions, speakers are encouraged to distill critical insights into compelling, actionable narratives. Complementing these are extended workshops where attendees can "get into the weeds," fostering a collaborative environment designed to dive deep into solutions for current dealership challenges. The Promise and Pitfalls of Artificial Intelligence in Automotive Artificial Intelligence is hailed as a transformative force ready to revolutionize automotive sales and operations. However, both Bradley and Hales offer a word of caution: between the promise and delivery of AI lies a gulf that only purpose-driven integration can bridge. "The magic sauce hasn't come out yet," Hales asserts, with many AI applications failing to address real dealership needs. Bradley elaborates, emphasizing the noise in the market: "There's all these fugazi AI companies… either don't have Internet integration, they don't have funding, or they're just batshit crazy." To navigate this landscape, dealerships must sift through these options, hone in on solutions that offer genuine integrative benefits, and take advantage of AI capabilities across CRM systems, predictive modeling, and customer engagement. There is significant potential for AI to handle repetitive and time-consuming tasks, thereby freeing up human resources for roles that require nuanced decision-making and relationship-building. As Hales points out, AI can ameliorate the juggling act performed by overstretched managers. Translating customer interactions through multilanguage support, for example, can help unlock underserved markets. Yet the broader adoption of AI will succeed only if anchored in realistic, performance-enhancing applications tailored to dealership exigencies. By engaging more deeply with AI tools and formats that prioritize education and partnership over exploitation, the automotive industry can transcend current inefficiencies, cultivating a more informed, agile, and customer-centric ethos that distinguishes the leaders from the laggards. Nurturing Growth Through Networking and Engagement Undoubtedly, one of the key pillars for advancing within an evolving field such as automotive sales is networking—an undertaking the industry hardly emphasizes beyond simple introductions. Conferences like Digital Dealer are excellent avenues for fostering these connections, providing invaluable face-time with peers and industry leaders. These interactions offer unforeseen insights that even profound technological acumen might overlook. "You're not going to send any of these folks back to school," Hales articulates, noting the practical limitations that educational programs face. His assertion dovetails seamlessly with observations made by others on the importance of dealer collaboration, not only for shared learning but for driving collective progress. Bradley points out, "It's being in the know," emphasizing that much of a conference's value lies in stripping away feelings of isolation by exposing shared challenges and innovative responses. Setting the stage for engagement at the fringes of formal sessions allows meaningful discourse to flourish—nurturing growth and acting as a backbone for individual and team success. Real-world applications and success stories are brought to the forefront, transforming simple education into actionable strategy. Dealer culture, intrinsically rooted in kinesthetic, hands-on modalities, thrives on involvement rather than observation. Specialized sessions, think tanks, and non-static formats invite participants to dive directly into problem-solving, accommodating varying levels of expertise and empowering professionals to be proactive catalysts in their own success stories. With every session, conference, and professional engagement, the automotive industry sharpen its competitive edge by cultivating a culture where mastery of technology and collaborative ingenuity work hand-in-hand to defy traditional constraints and embrace innovative possibilities.   Resources + Our Proud Sponsors: ➼ The Millionaire Car Salesman Facebook Group: Join the #1 Mastermind Group in the Automotive Industry with over 29,000 members worldwide.

An eventful race at Kansas created several talking points for Caleb Barnes and Trenton Worsham this week.

The BMW 3-series turns 50 this year, and we celebrate it. We know that it didn't arrive in the US until 2 years later, but that's ok, it's still 50 years old.Our trauma surgeon, Dr Stephan Moran, talks about older cars and how they're not safe compared with new vehicles. He also addresses the particular challenges of teenage and older drivers.CoC addresses the rumored 2027 Toyota Supra V8. We hope Toyota actually makes it, and that if they do, they use a Toyota engine, not something from BMW.Audi will be phasing out the RS3 sedan, which means they will no longer sell an in-line 5-cylinder engine. That's a big deal, because those engines have been critical to the brand for more than 40 years. We get into it.#carsoncallpodcast #automobile #audiquattro #5cylinder #traumasurgeonsafety #toyotasupra #bmw3series #bmwm3

With Toyota drivers tussling too hard in the final corner Chase Elliott grabbed the victory at Kansas, locking up a spot in the next round of the Playoff.

In this special dual-release edition of The Design Brief and The Management Brief, Josh Howell, LEI President, is joined by LEI veterans Jim Morgan, Senior Advisor, and Mark Reich, Senior Coach and Chief Engineer Strategy. These two lean heavyweights discuss two fundamental lean processes that are absolutely critical to transform and grow an enterprise: lean product and process development (LPPD) and hoshin kanri.  Jim is a former Ford Global Engineering Director and Rivian Chief Operating Officer. He co-authored The Toyota Product Development System and Designing the Future, both of which elements of LPPD, a system for developing new products and services and their required value streams. Jim co-authored The Toyota Product Development System and Designing the Future, both of which explore elements of LPPD, a system for developing new products and services and the processes needed to produce and deliver them. LPPD surfaces and resolves issues across the product-development value stream in order to minimize time- and profit-consuming wastes and rework.  Mark, a 23-year veteran of Toyota, including work in Corporate Strategy at the automaker, recently authored Managing on Purpose, which explores hoshin kanri and how it aligns enterprises at every level — C-suite through the frontline — via a shared common purpose, problem solving, and continuous learning. Since 2011 when he joined LEI, Mark has successfully helped many executives apply hoshin kanri and transform their companies in a variety of business sectors.   For executives not yet familiar with LPPD and hoshin kanri — especially those leading and growing enterprises — this discussion should be eye-opening. Jim and Mark reveal these two processes as not operations-only tools but game-changing methods for corporate leaders to transform their organizations. They describe the importance of these powerful processes to overall business success, their successes at Toyota and other lean organizations, and how the processes can significantly help any business, big or small.  Stay connected to the latest thinking in lean management.

When David Obstler joined Datadog in 2018, the company's co-founders had already built momentum with a product that observed modern cloud workloads. What struck Obstler was the alignment with a powerful long-term trend—the shift from legacy, on-premise systems to modern cloud applications. “It was a product that had a lot of product market fit in a really strong growing market,” he tells us.From that foundation, Datadog scaled rapidly. Today, the platform serves more than 3,100 customers worldwide, including Samsung, Nasdaq, Shell, Autodesk, and Toyota. The company recently entered the S&P 500 after reporting more than $820 million in second-quarter revenue—a 28% year-over-year increase—alongside $200 million in free cash flow, Obstler tells us.The CFO attributes the growth to Datadog's unwavering commitment to product-led innovation. The company began in infrastructure monitoring and quickly expanded into logs, application monitoring, and security. “The company invests R&D at very high and consistent levels to continue to maintain and grow the platform,” Obstler tells us.His own role centers on scaling the infrastructure needed to support expansion. That includes building global go-to-market operations and strengthening his team across financial planning, predictability, and business operations. “We've been investing behind this growth opportunity and doing it in a strong, prioritized way,” he tells us.With new investments in AI, Datadog is preparing for its next chapter. For Obstler, disciplined prioritization and product-driven growth remain at the heart of how finance can fuel scale.

“Just being able to see you are still just a person because being a superstar is like a mask, it's like a representative, when you get in jail and fighting for your life, you realize this shit is all an act, it's all just a mask.”  Young Thug In one of the most raw and captivating episodes of the year, Young Thug sits down with Ryan, Channing and Fred for an unfiltered conversation in which he opens up in like never before after beating Georgia's biggest case, enduring a trial that shook the hip-hop world and reflecting on the emotional toll of incarceration, how he navigated leaked phone calls, and the impact it all had on his family and mental health. From the moment the guys start talking, Thug is full of emotion, remorse and takes accountability for all that he's been through and put the people closest to him through- he longs for a fresh start but doesn't waiver on who he is, his manhood and doubles down on loyalty. Ryan asks Thug how things got to where they did and why he turned to the streets, despite his overwhelming success, dating back to his childhood and growing up in a house with his father as an example of family. Acknowledging the weight of the world on his shoulders, he reveals how he's been coping, exploring the range of emotions he's experiencing and understanding ways to deal with depression. He speaks candidly about his relationship with his girlfriend Mariah The Scientist and how they survived through the storm, expresses gratitude for fatherhood, and shares what kept him grounded when his future looked uncertain.In a moment of vulnerability, Thug reveals the people who didn't turn their back on him during the dark times, including Drake, Lil Baby and how Kanye and Kim Kardashian are the ones who gave him his biggest break. Thug gives fans a glimpse into his creative mindset, impact on culture, life codes, details behind his new music and how his experiences have transformed his sound and purpose. Going through  emotional—now is Young Thug's most pivotal moment, as he tunes out the negative noise, ignores the criticism and embraces the chance to start over.  Thank you to Toyota and as you heard, we talked about Toyota's all in partnership with football and game day giveaways, Learn more at https://toyota.com/nfl Learn more about your ad choices.

Paul, Jon, and Liz reflect on the landscape of discipleship, contrasting the boredom of plains with the beauty of high peaks. "One quality of all the high points is perfection. You see it in Jesus and the Sermon on the Mount's 'Be perfect, even as your Heavenly Father is perfect.' In other words, when you do these things, do them really, really well." "Beauty is one of the church's best apologetics." "Really, perfection is a whole style of the New Testament. Like, we're really in this for real. Toyota and Honda really struggled when they brought their plants to America, because they could not reach the perfection the Japanese machinists could reach in terms of clearances on the parts. Americans couldn't get any closer than two 1/100ths of an inch of perfection, and the Japanese got to one 1/100th. Every good trade has these perfections in it. Where are these perfections in Christianity, in our faith? That's what you see in the high peaks."

"What's true, what's not true, the world is changing right in front of us." Fred Taylor In a world filled with uncertainty and questionable times, Ryan Clark, Channing Crowder and Fred Taylor come together for this 3-man conversation on what unites us all- humanity, sports and laughter. This week in sports, nothing is a guarantee — and that's what makes ball great, you have to play the game to see how it shakes out. We break down the NFL's most debated questions heading into Week 3: Is Patrick Mahomes still on top, or is Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson closing the gap? Why did Shedeur Sanders not want to play in Baltimore? How is Tom Brady's dual role between owner and broadcaster affecting how he does is job and the advantages vs disadvantages of his presence. RC weighs in on player and non-player perspectives in media while Channing and Fred talk through the frenzy of it all from last couple weeks. And we get into ring talk, following Bud Crawford's victory vs Canelo and where does it rank the undefeated pound for pound champion with the greats, did this move him up on boxing's throne high enough to take Floyd Mayweather's GOAT crown? We discuss. Pivot Bets are paid with college football rivalry wins in our family and the guys open up on sharing thoughts and feelings around all that's going on in the world today.
