The old guard is far from dying out, but the problem is clear: there's not enough young qualified technicians out there to address the burgeoning demand. If only there was something that contractors could do to encourage more young people to go into the trades, right?   In this episode of the Service Business Mastery, your hosts Tersh and Josh talk to Lenni Diaddario and Dustin Blackstone of Emerson Commercial and Residential Solutions. Our duo from Merson talks about the current efforts of their company to get more young people to learn more about the exciting world of Heating, Ventilation, Airconditioning Refrigeration, and Electrical services.   For Dustin, it's all about extending a helping hand to schools and talking to students not just in middle school during career day, but also when these kids get into high school and even college. Meanwhile, Lenny emphasizes the need for contractors to help schools design a curriculum that will help students learn about the trades in a way that will not only encourage, but prepare them to take it on as a career.    Our duo also touches on the future of training, especially with the use of virtual reality (VR). With VR technology getting better by the day, contractors can leverage its capabilities to create better technicians and provide a higher level of service to customers.    In this episode we discuss: What's causing the labor shortage in the trades How contractors can help produce more qualified technicians  Will VR replace face-to-face instruction?   Check out these resources we mentioned during the podcast: This episode is kindly sponsored by Sera (visit their website) CompanyCam (visit their website), and UpFrog (visit their website).

Diarmuid and Paul predict what the gardens of the future will look like. It's likely fewer people will own cars so perhaps driveways will be reclaimed as green spaces. Will VR and the metaverse mean we can travel back in time to see the likes of Hadrian's gardens at Tivoli? Diarmuid also tells the story of his balcony bath. Yes, he actually is bathing outside even though it's winter. And as a follow up to last week's episode, we hear how Diarmuid interpreted the story of Mary Eleanor Bowes in garden form. This is the series finale of DIRT. We'll be back next month for a Christmas special with more episodes in the New Year.

Breaking Banks - Episode 331: Sci-Fi Legends talk COVID-19 On this week's show, we invited acclaimed science fiction authors David Brin, Kevin J. Anderson, and Ramez Naam on the show to talk about how the #COVID19 crisis might affect humanity on a long term basis, looking out short-term and then 50 years from now. These authors have written science fiction with topics like evolutionary adaptation, pandemics, nanobot infections and alien viruses, so they're well placed to think about societal impact. This is one you won't want to miss!  TOPICS DISCUSSED:[4:10]  What are we seeing in terms of global response to the coronavirus that are intriguing. [04:35] David Brin wrote a book called Earth in the 1980’s and the most difficult part for a sci-fi writer to predict is the very near future. [6:45] Will daily life return to normal after the events of COVID-19? What is the fall out from reduction in the demand for oil? [8:30] Does capitalism at its heart have the tools necessary to solve the outlying problems? Is COVID-19 a wake up call for capitalism? [10:36] David Brin discusses https://tinyurl.com/breathassist1 and the XPRIZE Foundation. [12:15] What does the future of working from home look like post coronavirus? [15:50] Will VR become the wave of the future in communicating, conferences, and dating? [19:00] David Brin gives listeners a lesson in haptics and comedy ensues. [22:51] Ramez Naam speaks about flattening the curve and how China handled the COVID-19 pandemic. [30:30] In the United States will we see the scales tip towards a more socialist society after COVID-19? [35:30] Does the United States need a basic social safety net? [40:20] There’s no doubt the United States needs to be more agile, will COVID-19 spur rapid innovation and change to be implemented? [41:50] Brett King explores the theory that sensors and cutting edge technologies could protect, diagnose, and prevent future outbreaks. [45:40] David Brin addresses the notion that the first symptom of COVID-19 is the loss of sense of smell. [50:00] Will citizens be open to sharing more personal information and data in order to move about freely post COVID-19? [51:19] Brett King asks each guest what society looks like 100 years post COVID-19. GUESTS:Ramez Naam @RamezKevin J.

This week, we thought with all the Coronavirus fuss and bother, that we would bring in the sci-fi guys and we would have a talk about what's going to happen next. Part of the art of science fiction is trying to role play, model out scenarios, look at how events that are happening right now might extend out into the future. So we've invited a few friends on. Mez, Ramez Naam. Welcome back. Ramez Naam: (00:30)Thanks Brett. It’s a pleasure to be here.Brett: (00:32)Hugo award winning author of Nexus, if I understand correctly, a singularity university. Was it Hugo award?Ramez Naam: (00:38)No Hugo for me.

In addition to their new Lord of the Rings show, Amazon has also announced that they are going to be producing a F2P MMO set in the LotR universe (which is apparently separate from Lord of the Rings Online). Tetris Effect is launching on the Epic Store and getting VR support on the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive plus a ton of PC specific enhancements. Apex Legends has some great ideas with how to combat cheaters and we are 100% in favor.
