And today I like to get out of the hopes, the wish, the like, my gosh, are we gonna be able to hit our goals or not? ⁓ To actually set you and your team up to hit goals. this is just a true like, is your team set up to hit what you guys have set up? Or are we hoping, wishing, wishing on stars, doing all the like magic dance? ⁓ Let's truly, truly, truly help on this. We even have...   a goal projections calculator. So you guys can use that. And something email is Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. I'm gonna go through a bunch of these pieces today, but truly this is something that I think is gonna be so helpful for you guys. Let's not hope, wish, pray, like do that, but let's have it be a bit more predictable. ⁓ We've got to get it to where it's real. Somebody asked me like, I just wanna hit this amount. And I'm like, cool, why? And do you have a plan to get there? Every single piece. I don't care if you wanna hit.   2 million, 5 million, 20 million, all of it's doable. Let's just figure out the strategy. Let's figure out the plan. Let's create it. And then let's execute. Let's not just talk in hopes. Let's actually execute. ⁓ But it has to actually be founded actually. It has to be foundational. Otherwise, no matter how hard they try, they will not hit it. So we're gonna go from like wishful thinking to goal-driven execution. That way you guys can execute consistently.   Dental A Team's obsessed with this. Our mission is to positively impact the world of dentistry in the greatest way possible and to help you have every possible amazing life opportunity that you possibly have ever dreamed of. ⁓ We want you to lead with numbers, not just motivation. We want you to be confident in your decision-making. I want you to be able to say yes to more things in your life and that's focused on you as a person, earnings and profitability and systems and team development. The yes model, making sure that you are truly set up for success.   We're gonna teach you guys how to actually reach goals that you've set, how to be more consistent. It ties into quarterly. We talk about that on podcasts. Like really it's tracking, it's measuring, but it's like foundational. We've got to make sure that we've got step one is clear, measurable, visible and realistic. So, often offices I'm like, what are we even working towards? Like, I don't know. It does not have to be number centric either. It can be patient centric. It can be whatever it is. And I help offices see that like,   the numbers equate to the number of patients. And so when we look at this back and forth, it's really gonna help us like drive these things forward. And so whatever it is, you just have to make a goal clear, measurable, visible and realistic. So I'm talking like have a thermometer in your back room and we like fill it in every single month to see how close we are.   I do not want you just to be talking about it just as noise. It's got to be visible. It's got to be specific and it's got to be realistic. And then it's broken down into daily, weekly, monthly goals that are going to help us with benchmarks on it. So, so many times you're like, it's so hard care to add an extra 20 grand. And I'm like, but is it? If we're working 20 days a week, a month, that's an extra thousand dollars. Let's talk about how easy is it to add a thousand dollars a day? Like just rattle off, what could we do?   We could do fluoride. We can make sure our X-rays are there. We could add one extra, a couple extra fillings. Like that's all it is to add an extra 20 grand to a practice, but that's broken down into a daily realistic goal. This is going to help people also know what's their number that they actually can influence to drive the goal forward. So I'm very specific. If our goal is X, Y, or Z, we're going to then make sure every single department has something that they're driving this goal forward with that they can influence. And then we have a scoreboard.   Like truly teams do not win games by hoping, wishing that they got enough baskets in the hoop. They have the scoreboard there. They see, are they behind or they on track? Are they above goal? Are they behind goal? The entire game. It's not like, well, we're going to just like look at it once a month and hope like one time during the game, we're going to just throw that score up there real fast. Hope nobody really looks at it. Cause you know, we just want them to play ball.   No, we're here to win. We're here to make sure your practice is thriving. We're here to make sure that your systems are in place to make sure that you give the best patient and team experience. We need that scoreboard visible. Otherwise, how does the team know if we're winning, losing, or if we're on track? So break it down, monitor it. And I will tell you when practices implement this, they instantly grow 10 to 25 % consistently. Like it's a no brainer because we're like what you focus on, you achieve what's in your mind's eye. It's like when you want to go buy a car,   Well, instantly you start seeing that car everywhere and like, my gosh, there's that car again. Well, Toyota don't just like pump out a bunch more cars. You were focused on it. So you started to see it more. And what this is doing is it's focusing all of us on the goal and it's going to make it visible. So step one is you need to have your goal clear, measurable, visible, and realistic. And you need to post it this week. That's step one. Get it in there, physically post it and start measuring on it. Now every goal needs to have   the role tied to the goal. So this is going to what we talking about, like you have to train each role, what metric they can control. So hygiene reappointments, that's a big portion, hygiene fluoride, hygiene production per day, having it visible, having them have their own metrics so they can see what should my daily goal be. You just give a hygienist this information, your hygiene production will go up naturally. If they start looking at it, you have them turn in their end of day production reports, they check it off compared to where they're supposed to be.   Even if you have nothing tied to it, no pain, no gain, no nothing other than telling them what it is, you will increase because now they know for an office, your billing, it's our AR needs to be X amount. This is our goal. This is our standard scheduling. We need to have our schedule filled 80 % or 90%, whatever it is. That's less than one opening per day. We track it. We measure how many days do we not have? It's like how many accident free days did we have? Doctors hitting their dollar production per hour goal.   And checking out like literally I've helped associates increase their associate production goal just by giving them a little calendar where they check on how many days they hit their goal. That's it. That's it. People love like I used to work at the dental college at Midwestern. If you don't know that, well, welcome. Hi, I'm Kiera Dent. I used to work in Arizona's dental college and it was crazy. Our endo buckets were a hot mess. I had made these pictures. I had protocols. had it. The number one thing that worked for me to get those endo buckets back clean.   was giving out gold stars to students. I kid you not, these are dental students. I had 140 of them in two different classes. So 280 and I had to get these buckets in. You can only imagine the amount of work I had to do and that we're talking gut a purchase, like the whole nonsense of these things. And the piece was if I gave them a gold star and then what people started doing was putting those gold stars on their name tags. And believe it or not, people were obsessed with getting those gold stars and tracking and measuring just with a simple gold star.   And if their bucket wasn't perfect, they got a red or green. They did not get the gold or they had to go back and fix it to get the gold star. And it's crazy. Cause when you do this, what it does is it connects the dots for team members. And then we're reinforcing good behavior of what we want more up. So when you start to have like every single role having their goals. So hygienists know what their metrics are. Dental assistants know their metrics. Front office knows their metrics. Doctors know their metrics. And we're tracking it.   They're closing, like we are hitting our goals with so much more ease and continuity. This is how I take practices from producing 150 to 500,000. Like it's not sexy, it's not crazy, it's not hard, it's just consistent and being focused on the right things. So in your next meeting, like we've got the goal posted, it's visible. In the next meeting, ask each department like.   I break this down quarterly usually with departments and I say like, all right, build your quarterly goal. What are we gonna focus on? What are gonna be the metrics that are going to help us get to this mountain over here, this big goal that we're focused on? What does your department need to do? Where are we lacking? Where are the gaps and where can we improve? And then we start tracking it every single week. We review it every single month and we start to help them exponentially grow. This is how we do it and you can have that as a piece. And then third is we need to...   track the progress and adjust it weekly. we're literally like I said, you've got the goals, we're tracking it weekly. It's on there. And when a goal is read, we talk about it that week and we say, all right, this was off. What do we need to do? If hygiene teams are behind, the hygiene team gets together and we calibrate on how we do perio. If the doctors are not hitting their hourly goal, well, let's look, what are they diagnosing? What's our case acceptance close? What are our block schedules? When high gents aren't able to hit enough perio, let's go look to see, do we have enough perio spaces within our schedule? ⁓   but we start to identify these gaps early on, of course, correct quickly so that we were able to hit the goals consistently. And then like we celebrate those wins. So when you look at these things and you have your departments, this is where you have your department meetings every single week. People are like, what am I supposed to talk about? You talk about this. You talk about like, how can we win? We've got our scoreboard there. We're looking, are we behind, are we ahead? And if we're ahead,   Great, how can we calibrate the whole department? How can we look for other things that would drive it forward? And it's not driving the practice forward so much as it is great team experience, great patient experience, great practice experience. It's not one is better than the other. All three of those are interconnected. And so start doing this, start tracking every single week, start having each team member tied to a goal, start having it because when you do this, you're not just hoping and wishing.   You literally know the score every single week. Owners, you will be so obsessed about this because now you know like, are we going to win the game or are we going to lose the game? You're not hoping and wishing. You literally know at any given moment so you can fix it out like at halftime. Can you imagine, like my family, we all played basketball. So can you imagine for one second a basketball team that's like, well, it's halftime. We don't know if we're winning. We don't know if we're losing, but we're just going to go in there and we're going to pep talk.   No, they're like, all right, we're behind. need to go strategize. We need to go figure it out. Like, how are we changing this? Let's look back at our plays. What have we done? Well, what do we need to change? And they fix it to win the game. That doesn't mean we win everything, but it does mean that we're more consistent. It does mean that we're more focused on it. It does mean that we're more aligned because honestly, what you focus on, you achieve. So go post your goals, make sure they're realistic. We do have a whole projection calculator, which is really awesome. And it helps you figure out   who's gonna be off, how many providers you have, what their dollar per hour is, you can figure out what it is now, you can project out what next year's goals should be. At a minimum, every single office, if you're not in massive growth mode, should be growing at a minimum of 10 % every single year. That's just healthy business. So you have that. If you want to look at this to help you set up your realistic goals, by all means, reach out, Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. I'm happy to share it with you. This is a great time of year also to be doing it. So you can get our free goal projections calculator. It's something that you guys can do.   You guys can easily, easily set this up to now have every role have their role tied to the goal that they need to do. And we start to measure it. And then we're able to check it every single week in course correct quickly of what do we need to do? Are we tracking the right things? Are we not? Are we set up to win the game? And I think about like, let's again, go back to basketball. If you don't watch basketball, we'll change it to football. In all of them where they're going to win, when they're looking at the score, if they're behind, it's not like   keep doing defense guys. No, what they do is they change it. They change the strategy. They say, we're going to do X, Y, or Z. We're going to switch out these players. We're going to course correct faster and see if we get a different result. So for you and your team, have this as a rhythm, have it to where people own their roles, have it to where it's realistic. And I will say when we're setting up goals, don't go so hard that people feel they can achieve it. Make sure it's realistic and achievable and attainable for people. I'm not going to go from   I give you your hit 75 % overhead. I'm not gonna be like, let's get you to 50%. Ultimately, yes, I want you to get to 50%. But I'm gonna go, okay, we're at 75. Let's get to 70 this quarter. You're like, here, that's 5%. Like, of course I can do that. Great, because what I'm trying to do is build massive momentum for you to where you hit these things with ease and you build the momentum rather than it being so hard that you give up before you even start. So with your team.   commit to this, reach out for that projections calculator so you can set up a realistic goal for your practice of number of providers, when you're gonna hire new ones, all the pieces. It's really awesome. I'd love to help you out with that. Or if you're like, gosh, like I cannot figure this out. I cannot get my team bond in. I feel like I'm so scattered. Reach out. We're here to help you. Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. This is what we do. You guys, this is where we wanna help you lead with confidence and not chaos. And honestly, if you know a practice struggling with this, you're not struggling, send this podcast to them, help them out.   because I believe that the success platform, I think all of us are climbing the mountain to success, it's huge. Everybody's welcome and we want everybody there because we want to ultimately help more patients get great dentistry and help more dentists and more practices thrive. So share this, give it to somebody, help them lead with confidence, not chaos. And as always, this is what we do. So reach out and as always, thanks for listening and I'll catch you next time on the Dental A Team podcast. ⁓  

Can you build great projects without first building great people? In this powerful follow-up to Respect for People, Jason explores the heart of Lean's second pillar, Hitozukuri, the Japanese concept of “making people before making things.” Drawing from post-war Japan, the Toyota Production System, and the hard lessons of modern construction, Jason shows why the world's most successful companies  and nations invest in humans first. You'll hear: The incredible story of how post-WWII Japan rose from ashes through training, not punishment. Why the U.S. construction industry keeps repeating the same mistakes by hiring skills instead of developing people. What happens when leaders spend more time with their teams than managing over them. How DPR and Toyota embody the “build people, build things” philosophy and how you can too. The simple truth: Without training, standardization, and care, Lean collapses. If you've ever wished your crews were more capable, your leaders more confident, or your culture more united, this episode is your blueprint. Listen now and rediscover the power of building humans before buildings.

In this episode of The InEVitable by MotorTrend, hosts Ed Loh and Jonny Lieberman go hands-on with one of the most surprising EV conversions ever attempted — the Toyota AE86 Levin BEV, an electric restomod created by Lexus Electrified Development Division. Joining them are Kenji Arai, Chief Engineer at Lexus Electrified, and Toshi Hayama, JDM legend and translator, to discuss why Lexus chose to electrify one of Japan's most iconic lightweight sports cars and what it means for the future of driving fun. This isn't a gimmick — it's an EV with a *manual transmission*, real gear shifts, simulated 4A-GE engine sound, and the soul of the 1980s drifting icon. From the technical challenges of reusing Lexus hybrid parts to how feedback from this prototype could inform future BEV sports cars, this is an inside look at Toyota and Lexus' electrified philosophy for enthusiasts.

AI is now a standing item at most strategic tables—shapinghow leaders think about markets, talent, and the future of work. But while investment and experimentation are rising fast, most organizations are still in the early chapters of integration. Beneath the strategy, there's a quieter conversation about fear, trust, and what remains uniquely human. In this episode, we sit down with Peter Mulford, Chief AI Officer at BTS, to debate whether AI can ever truly replace emotional intelligence. Together, we explore how we currently think about AI, the edges of what it can do, and what remains uniquely human (for now). Guest Bio: Peter Mulford is the Chief AI Officer and the Global head of the Artificial Intelligence and Innovation Practice (AI&I) for BTS Inc. In this role he helps clients get real impact by working with teams and organizations to transform their business using innovation, future back thinking, Artificial Intelligence, and digital technology.

From 2005-2010, he was the Managing Director of BTS's East Coast region, leading the largest global office for BTS through a period of market turbulence and growth during which it more than tripled in size. Prior to BTS he worked for a start-up firm in Tokyo, Japan. He has extensive experience in Retail, Consumer Goods, Electronics and Telecom, among many other industries. Peter holds an MBA in Finance from Columbia Business School, and a Master's in international Affairs with a focus on Asia Pacific Studies from Columbia University.

All good things come to an end, and 2025 marks the end of an institutional powerhouse in Venturini Motorsports. The patriarch of the organization, Bill Venturini, joins Davey Segal (3:45) to reflect and reminisce on the several decades of ownership in the ARCA Menards Series. From humble beginnings in Chicago to the high banks of Daytona, Big Bill was there every step of the way, with his wife Cathy by his side. He explains why now is the right time to step away from the sport, what made Nick Tucker and Nitro Motorsports the right group to take things over, how proud he is of his son, Billy, who has run day-to-day operations (who makes a surprise appearance!), why the ARCA Menards Series has been the right platform for them all these years, how he feels about the health of the series, the legacy he feels like he's leaving behind and more. Plus, how the patented Victory Lane kiss originated, their relationship with Toyota, his plans in retirement, how the feeling of winning races and developing drivers differ and much more.

It's not about materials arriving on cue, it's about everything moving in rhythm. In this episode, Jason Schroeder and Kevin break down the second great pillar of the Toyota Production System: Just In Time. But as they reveal, this principle goes far beyond supply chains and delivery schedules, it's the heartbeat of flow. Through firsthand reflections from Toyota plants and lean pioneers, Jason and Kevin show how Just In Time is really about designing a perfectly balanced system where people, machines, and materials move in harmony, free of strain, waste, and interruption. From riveting stations built in the perfect “strike zone,” to 50-ton die changes completed in under five minutes without power, to two operators working one machine in seamless rhythm, this episode captures what true flow looks like in motion. In this episode, you'll learn: Why Just In Time isn't about inventory, it's about stability and flow. How Japanese manufacturers design balance between humans and machines. The real definition of pull: Takt-based pull, not reactive production. How flow state eliminates bottlenecks, strain, and waiting. Why nothing in Japan is built without Takt time and why construction shouldn't be either. Jason and Kevin also reveal a simple truth learned on the trip: you can't have Just In Time without Takt. It's not speed, it's synchronization. And when teams find that rhythm, work stops being stressful and starts being beautifully predictable.

What happens when two builders visit the birthplace of Lean and realize it's not just a system, it's a way of living? In this powerful and emotional episode, recorded live from Haneda Airport in Tokyo, Jason Schroeder and Kevin reflect on their life-changing journey through Japan with Paul Akers' Two Second Lean Study Tour. What started as a professional training trip turned into something much deeper, a rediscovery of purpose, humanity, and what it truly means to lead. Jason shares how Japan didn't just refine his understanding of Lean, it healed it. From Toyota's leadership philosophies to the culture's deep respect for people, he found a nation that values consideration, alignment, and connection. For Jason, the revelation was personal: “I feel whole. I finally found a place where kindness isn't weakness, it's the standard.” Kevin opens up about his own transformation, from learning new tools to completely rethinking leadership and fatherhood. Inspired by Japan's shoulder-to-shoulder culture, he now sees that leadership isn't about sending people off to figure it out, it's about walking beside them. In this episode, you'll learn: Why the true power of Lean begins with love and respect for people. How Japan's “Gemba-first” mindset reshapes leadership and humility. The lessons from Toyota executives that every builder should hear. How a simple app and mindset shift rebuilt Kevin's productivity and peace. Why real leadership at work or home means standing shoulder to shoulder. This isn't just a recap of a trip. It's a blueprint for becoming whole again as leaders, as parents, as people.

What if your construction site had two gates, one for entry, and one for alignment? In this electrifying episode recorded live from Kyoto, Jason Schroeder takes lessons from ancient Japanese castle design and transforms them into a modern leadership framework every builder needs to hear. Drawing from the Masu Gata (a defensive courtyard designed to trap intruders) and the Genkan (the sacred entryway of every Japanese home), Jason reveals a radical truth: your morning worker huddle is your Genkan - the moment that separates chaos from flow, and disunity from one team. You'll hear powerful lessons from Japan's culture of respect, Toyota's leadership philosophy, and a story of how one former Lexus CEO explained why Suzuki fell while Toyota rose. It all comes down to loving the Gemba people , the workers and creating a jobsite culture where no one walks in unaligned. In this episode, you'll learn: Why Japan's entry rituals can revolutionize your project culture. How to protect your team from “enemies of alignment”. The real reason every job must have a morning worker huddle. How two gates can prevent disrespect, chaos, and safety risks. Why loving and training your Gemba people is the ultimate leadership act. This isn't just about construction, it's about honor, respect, and discipline. Step into the Genkan. Leave your shoes and your ego at the door.   If you like the Elevate Construction podcast, please subscribe for free and you'll never miss an episode.  And if you really like the Elevate Construction podcast, I'd appreciate you telling a friend (Maybe even two

Most projects bleed money and time long before the first worker lifts a tool. The problem isn't the field, it's the logistics. In this eye-opening episode, recorded live from Japan on Paul Akers' Two-Second Lean trip, Jason reveals what Toyota, Lexus, and top-performing DPR projects all have in common: they don't manage waste, they design it out before it ever reaches the jobsite. Discover how a single shift in thinking from “cut it and toss it” to “build it right upstream” can eliminate overproduction, motion, transport, and rework across your supply chain. Hear the true story of a lab project that cut waste by 30%, the kaizen lesson that stunned Toyota engineers, and why framing crews should never have to haul, cut, or fix bulk materials again. If you're serious about lean logistics, reducing worker overburden, and building flow into your operations from procurement to placement, this episode is a masterclass. Listen in to learn: The hidden waste your logistics system creates every day. How Toyota thinks upstream to prevent chaos downstream. Why cutting waste on-site is already too late. Simple, proven ways to pre-cut, pre-kit, and pre-plan for flow. How to protect your crews from burnout, waste, and unevenness. Stop fixing symptoms. Start designing flow.

What if the smartest thing your team could do was stop? In this special episode of the Elevate Construction Podcast , Jason Schroeder and Kevin unpack one of the most misunderstood yet powerful principles of Lean: Jidoka “automation with a human touch.” Fresh from their reflections in Japan, they trace this concept all the way back to Sakichi Toyota's original loom where a single broken thread would automatically stop the machine to prevent defects. That simple idea became one of the two foundational pillars of the Toyota Production System, right alongside Just in Time. But this episode isn't just history, it's transformation. Jason and Kevin reveal how Jidoka's Stop. Call. Wait. mindset can revolutionize construction culture. Instead of “go, go, go,” imagine a jobsite where anyone at any level can stop work the moment they see variation or risk. No fear. No blame. Just precision, safety, and respect for people. In this episode, you'll discover: How Toyota designed “intelligent stopping” into its systems over a century ago. Why Stop. Call. Wait. creates psychological safety and eliminates rework. The shocking truth: Toyota averages 2,000 Andon pulls per day and celebrates every one. How construction can apply the same principle without slowing down production. Why leadership's reaction to an Andon call defines your culture more than any mission statement. Jason and Kevin break down real examples from Toyota's factory floors, powerful analogies from the field, and practical steps to bring Jidoka to your own teams, so quality isn't inspected in at the end, it's protected from the start.

Episode NotesThe discussion moves into how standards evolve beyond tools, the trade-offs of monocultures vs. consensus-driven teams, and why ownership matters when the original authors move on. Nathan also unpacks the cost of neglect, describing defects as anything that slows developers down—not just issues that impact end users.Later in the conversation, Nathan recounts a migration from a React SPA to Turbo and Stimulus that removed barriers between designers and developers. He highlights how keeping all problems on the radar together prevents teams from falling into local optima. The episode closes with reflections on TestBench, blind spots in testing, continuous improvement in remote teams, and advice for developers who feel stuck raising maintenance concerns.Episode Highlights[00:01:07] Defining Well-Maintained Software: Nathan shares his three key markers—up-to-date dependencies, adherence to team standards, and fixing defects immediately.[00:02:53] From Tools to Tacit Knowledge: Why norms start with tool-enforced rules like RuboCop but evolve into cultural agreements within teams.[00:04:49] Speed vs. Durability: Teams built on monoculture move quickly early on, but diverse, consensus-driven cultures go farther.[00:11:11] Owning the Architecture: When original developers leave, new teams must take responsibility for architecture rather than defer decisions.[00:13:37] The Cost of Neglect: Dependencies, drifting standards, and defects interact in compounding ways. Nathan reframes defects as “anything that impedes developer effectiveness.”[00:17:46] React → Turbo + Stimulus Migration: A costly SPA and siloed design team gave way to a simpler approach that reduced rework and empowered designers to contribute directly.[00:22:44] Avoiding Local Optima: Tackling problems in isolation creates dead ends—addressing them holistically opens real paths forward.[00:24:32] Who We Seek Validation From: Developer identities often align with whose approval they value—shaping front-end vs. back-end divides.[00:27:34] Comfort vs. Maintenance Burden: Silos built for comfort create tomorrow's maintenance problems.[00:33:45] Relentless Improvement in Remote Teams: Start as an ensemble, evolve into autonomous work cells, and use work logs to sustain consensus.[00:38:33] What's Missing from Remote Work: Nathan reflects on lost “hallway conversations” and the challenge of building social glue remotely.[00:40:50] The Story Behind TestBench: Dissatisfaction with existing frameworks and a desire for simplicity led to TestBench's creation.[00:47:38] Testing Blind Spots: The biggest blind spot is equating testing with automation—interactive testing and intelligible output remain essential.[00:50:35] Advice for Stuck Engineers: Nathan encourages developers to study quality traditions, connect with peers, and embrace continuous improvement.[00:53:16] Book Recommendations: Deming's Out of the Crisis and The New Economics, Toyota's product development work, and Rawls' A Theory of Justice.Tools & Resources MentionedBrightworks Digital – Nathan's current company, where he serves as Principal.Nathan Ladd on LinkedIn – Connect with Nathan and follow his work.TestBench – A Ruby testing framework co-created by Nathan.Turbo – Hotwire framework for building modern, fast applications without heavy JavaScript.Stimulus – A modest JavaScript framework for enhancing HTML with small, reusable controllers.RSpec – A popular Ruby testing tool for behavior-driven development.Minitest – A simple and fast Ruby testing framework.RuboCop – A Ruby static code analyzer and formatter.Lessons Learned in Software Testing – Classic book on testing by Cem Kaner, James Bach, and Bret Pettichord.Out of the Crisis – W.

Avalanche says it can finally square the circle: sub‑second finality, a large decentralized validator set, and thousands of sovereign L1s connected through native messaging for shared liquidity.In the genesis episode of our new ECOSYSTEMS podcast, Camila Russo and guest cohost Luigi D'Onorio DeMeo of Ava Labs unpack the Avalanche story—from Team Rocket's probabilistic consensus and the stadium sampling intuition, to today's “city of chains” (C‑Chain liquidity hub, P/X chains, and customizable L1s). We discuss:How random sampling achieves speed and safety/liveness guaranteesCustomization without fragmentation via inter-chain messaging (ICM)L1 vs L2 trade-offs: shared security vs shared risk, costs, and interoperabilityEnterprise paths (FIFA, Toyota, fintechs), privacy options, and Ava Cloud's “L1 in minutes”Decentralization in practice: validator counts, Nakamoto coefficient, and hardware accessibilityWhat real adoption looks like for payments, DeFi, and emerging marketsIf Avalanche is right, it has the chance to make finance programmable at scale. If not, we add to the L1 graveyard.

Did Toyota Just Raise the Bar for Off-Roaders? What happens when Toyota takes its legendary Tacoma and reimagines it for the next generation of off-road adventurers? The result might just be the 2025 Tacoma TRD Pro — a truck that's ready to hit the trail the moment it leaves the lot. From Fox-tuned shocks and a turbocharged hybrid powertrain to shock-absorbing front seats and a removable JBL Bluetooth speaker, this rig is packed with surprises. But does the $67,000 price tag deliver performance to match the hype — or has Toyota gone too far? Join John and Richard Rush on Rush To Reason and Drive Radio as they break down why this Tacoma could be one of the smartest off-road buys of the year — and how it stacks up against the competition.

Send us a textIn this episode of the Right Hand Drive Guys Podcast, we dive deep into the revival era of Japan's greatest hits — from the legendary 90s icons to their modern-day counterparts. Are the new versions of the NSX, Supra, and GT-R worthy successors to their golden-age roots, or are they watered-down nostalgia plays wrapped in tech and marketing?We share our honest takes on what each brand got right (and wrong), debate whether modern engineering kills soul or saves performance, and talk about which cars actually carry the torch of that raw 90s spirit. Expect passionate opinions, plenty of laughs, and a few unpopular takes along the way.

Mike Herzing and Jeremy Birenbaum cover this week's automotive headlines: Kia retires the Soul, Nissan teases a returning Xterra, Ram's Hemi boost drives sales, and Toyota issues safety recalls. They review the 2025 Subaru Forester Hybrid, answer listener questions about oil use in modern Audis, and discuss smart classic buys from the 1980s. Plus "Bench Racin" with NASCAR veteran Carl Benton on innovation, rule-pushing, and racing memories — all mixed with shop talk, reviews, and automotive banter. Lots of great memories and fun time on this weeks show! 

In this week's episode of America on the Road, host Jack Nerad and co-host Chris Teague put two very different vehicles through their paces. Jack gets behind the wheel of the 2025 Toyota GR86 Hakone Edition, a special, limited-run sports coupe aimed squarely at driving purists. Chris tests the redesigned 2026 Nissan Murano, a tech-forward crossover that aims to raise the comfort and luxury bar in the midsize SUV segment. Together, they compare notes and offer real-world insights on performance, practicality, and value.

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.
