In this episode, Matt sits down with Shayne Smith—professional stand-up comic, newly confirmed Catholic, and (apparently) political extremist—to talk about how being Catholic is punk rock in today's crazy world. The conversation also touches on prayer, the Latin Mass, online death threats, tattoos, getting banned from Australia, and much more!

Nicole Gelinas, senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, a contributing editor of City Journal, a columnist at the New York Post and the author of the book, Movement: New York's Long War to Take Back Its Streets from the Car (Fordham Univ Press, 2024), and Ligia Guallpa, executive director of Worker's Justice Project and co-founder of Los Deliveristas Unidos, cover what each New York City mayoral hopeful is proposing to regulate delivery apps and e-bike/scooter/moped licensing.

In a stunning and massive development, tech giant Microsoft has announced that it is terminating parts of the Israeli military's access to proprietary technology that it was using to conduct mass surveillance and targeting of Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank. “Microsoft told Israeli officials late last week that Unit 8200, the military's elite spy agency, had violated the company's terms of service by storing the vast trove of surveillance data in its Azure cloud platform,” the Guardian reports. “The termination is the first known case of a US technology company withdrawing services provided to the Israeli military since the beginning of its war on Gaza.” This major development would not have happened without the joint-investigative work of reporters at The Guardian, +972 Magazine, and Local Call exposing Microsoft's complicity with Unit 8200's mass-surveillance campaign, but it also would not have happened without the disruptive protests by tech workers within Microsoft. In this panel discussion, we speak with three fired Microsoft tech workers and members of the “No Azure for Apartheid” campaign—Nisreen Jaradat, Julius Shan, and Anna Hattle—about the role workers have played in pressuring Microsoft to end its complicity in Israel's war crimes.

What would you do if a spirit followed you home from a ghost hunt? In tonight's episode we bring you three chilling, true accounts from listeners across North America. First: a sensitive investigator visits the Sun-Kissed production factory in Mesa, Arizona, and becomes overwhelmed by a furious female spirit — a worker who claims she was raped and murdered. The experience is so intense it rattles the caller, and later the car alarm inexplicably blares twice as they leave the site. Next: a college student reeling from loss takes a drive and finds a hidden bench and a Tupperware full of handwritten letters left for someone who died there — a coincidence that becomes a lifeline. Finally: a family deals with persistent poltergeist signs — a houseplant that refuses to die in subzero weather, motion-activated LEDs lighting a shadow box with a keepsake, and other gentle proofs that a lost loved one may still be near. Three stories, three very different kinds of “signs.” Which one would you believe? #GhostHunt #HauntedFactory #TrueGhostStories #Paranormal #Spooky #Synchronicity #HauntedObjects #KeepsakeSigns #RealGhostStories #ParanormalInvestigation Love real ghost stories?

Seeing Through Trade Partners' Eyes This short episode reframes “problems with the trades” as problems with systems, culture, and inputs. Jason explains why most crews arrive wary and defensive, how our consistency can pull them back into a window of tolerance, and why emotionally intelligent supervision beats control. You will leave with a humane, practical lens that improves trust, flow, and results. You will learn: Why blaming people fails and fixing systems works. The idea of ill-wired vs ill-prompted behavior and why inputs matter. How to earn trust in six to eight weeks with consistent huddles, pull planning, and clear norms. What emotionally intelligent superintendents do and why one toxic leader can sink a site.

In this Five Minute Friday, I'm speaking directly to every orthodontist who feels stuck — at $2M in production when you're aiming for $3M, plateaued after years of growth, or feeling like your practice has lost momentum. Whether you're an associate, a solo owner, or partnered with an OSO/DSO, this episode will show you why the difference between stagnation and explosive growth often comes down to how you show up every single day.I break down the critical differences between a worker's mentality and an owner's mentality, share real-world examples from my own practice, and give you actionable steps to start thinking like an owner right now. If you apply this shift — even imperfectly — your production, culture, and leadership capacity can go through the ceiling.QUOTES“Are you looking to milk the system for everything it's worth — or are you looking to really add to the system and grow it?” — Dr. Glenn Krieger“That's one piece of advice that if you take to heart and treat every single day in your practice, watch what happens. Watch your practice go through the ceiling.” — Dr. Glenn KriegerKey TakeawaysIntro: Owner vs. worker mindset explained (00:00)The telltale signs of a worker's mentality (01:20)How adopting an owner's mindset builds equity and leadership (02:45)Real-life examples: showing up sick, picking up paper, and leading by example (04:15)The path from plateau to growth by thinking like an owner (05:00)Preview of my upcoming coaching program and how it's different (06:15)Additional Resources I've seen firsthand how adopting an owner's mentality can take a plateaued practice and catapult it to new levels of production, culture, and profitability.That's exactly why I'm launching my one-on-one coaching program — designed to help orthodontists and their teams implement the same strategies that built my practice. If you're ready to think and act like an owner, DM me on Facebook or reach out directly. By the time it launches at the end of 2025, spots will be limited — and if it doesn't make you 5x your investment in the first year, I'll give every penny back.Register for Ortho Vanguard: https://www.opvanguard.com - For more information, visit: https://orthopreneurs.com/- Join our FREE Facebook group here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/OrthoPreneurs

We are nearly one full day into the partial federal government shutdown and the political blame game is in full force. A vast majority of Democrats are insisting they will never vote for a clean funding bill that the Republicans have put up unless Republicans agree to tack on subsidies that would help Americans afford Obamacare coverage as well as reverse cuts to Medicaid.

In this interview, Matt talks with Dr. Peter Kwasniewski—author, lecturer, scholar and composer—about his (Dr. Kwasniewski's) first experience with the Traditional Latin Mass, and how it deeply impacted him and changed his understanding of what the Mass is all about. The conversation also touches on the beauty (and importance of) sacred music, the impacts of Vatican II upon the Church, and much, much more.

Are you running on continuous improvement or just the appearance of it? In this fast, practical conversation, Jason sits down with Patrick Adams, author of Avoiding the Continuous Appearance Trap, to expose the difference and show leaders how to build systems that actually sustain. What you will hear: Patrick's journey from the United States Marine Corps to leading Lean Solutions and coaching teams worldwide. The trap: companies that look “lean” on the surface but suffer toxic culture, high turnover, and flat KPIs. The telltales of a true CI culture: clear expectations that cascade to the front line, time and space to problem-solve, and relentless sustainment. Why short-term fixes fail and why real operational excellence takes structured daily behaviors, not silver bullets. How Patrick's 12 questions help leaders assess where they are and design their own roadmap. One practical challenge: Adopt leader standard work today. Structure your day, review it at the end, and align your actions to the results you claim to want.

In this episode, Jason sits down with his mentor, Hal Macomber, to unpack a fresh perspective that could change how you see Takt forever. We cover: Why Takt Construction must be seen as a standardized system, not a piecemeal set of practices. The five components of Takt as an operating system: thinking, people, practices, agreements, and assessments. The three core principles that make or break flow on projects. How second-order thinking and inversion can prevent costly mistakes in the field. Why people not just tools are the real drivers of continuous improvement. Whether you're leading a mega data center or a 100-unit wood frame project, this conversation will challenge the way you approach flow, people, and production laws in construction. If you've ever felt Takt is “just a tool,” this episode will reframe it as the socio-technical operating system that can transform projects big and small.

In this episode. Jason is catching up on powerful lessons and field-tested practices that can make your projects safer, cleaner, and more effective. Here's what you'll learn: The Builder's Code: How you treat workers and foremen is exactly how they'll treat the building, and what the client ultimately experiences. Lessons from Japan (Gemba): Start with 2–3S (sort, straighten, shine), watch people's movement, and stop where things don't make sense to reveal hidden constraints. Problems vs. Dilemmas: A problem has a clear solution; a dilemma forces you to choose between imperfect options. Jason shares examples every builder will recognize. Trash Management Done Right: Pre-kit and pre-cut to reduce waste, use scrap-out units, and manage dumpsters with visual Kanban triggers at half or three-quarters full. Daily Logistics Discipline: Assign a logistics owner to check the perimeter, cleanliness, recycling, and traffic control every single day. Why Saturdays Don't Work: Crews show up thin, productivity drops, and you lose momentum. Stop relying on weekend work as the answer. AEDs on Every Site: More lives are lost to cardiac arrest than auto accidents. Affordable AEDs (around $1,400) save lives. Every project needs one. This episode is practical, fast-moving, and packed with insights you can take straight to the field.

Day one of the federal government shutdown, with hundreds of thousands of federal workers on furlough, White House preparing for layoffs, some government services suspended and both parties blaming the other. We will hear from the Vice President JD Vance, Congressional leaders, and some rank-and-file Members of Congress explaining the situation to their constituents; Health care is one of the key issues in the shutdown. Democrats say Republicans are refusing to extend help to keep millions from seeing insurance costs skyrocket. Republicans say Democrats want to give health care to illegal immigrants. We will talk to Newsweek Politics Reporter Daniel Gooding about his 'fact check' article (20); Gov. Wes Moore (D-MD) talks about help his state is providing to those hurt by the federal government shutdown; Trump Administration says $18 billion for two big infrastructure projects in New York, for a commuter train tunnel under the Hudson River and Second Avenue subway line, is being withheld to investigate what the Transportation Department calls “discriminatory, unconstitutional contracting processes” involving Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI); a nominee for a seat on the National Labor Relations Board who is currently chief labor counsel for Boeing gets tough questions at a Senate confirmation hearing by a Republican Senator about a Boeing union contract dispute; Federalist Society preview of the Supreme Court case challenging President Donald Trump authority to impose global reciprocal tariffs.

Two powerhouse unions — the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) — are suing the Trump administration. They argue threats to permanently fire 750,000 federal workers during the shutdown are unlawful and amount to political extortion. A memo from OMB director Russell Vought, also tied to Project 2025, told agencies to “use this opportunity” to cut staff. If the plan moves forward, entire agencies could be gutted overnight, leaving families without paychecks and communities without protections.

AI is transforming the workplace. But should we fear it or embrace it? In this episode, we dive into the future of work, exploring how AI is reshaping jobs, skills, and organizational culture. We'll bust myths, highlight opportunities, and share practical tips anyone can use to prepare for an AI-powered workplace (without needing to be a tech expert).

Is “constructive criticism” really constructive or is it just disguised negativity? Jason takes a bold stance in this episode: criticism should not exist. Instead, he unpacks the difference between criticism and feedback for improvement and why only one of them builds people up, drives growth, and creates healthier cultures in construction and beyond. In this episode you'll learn: Why criticism damages trust, triggers ego, and stalls progress. The clear definition of feedback for improvement and why it works. How servant leadership rejects punishment and embraces growth. Why respecting people means replacing blame with actionable guidance. How shifting from criticism to feedback transforms teams, prisons, even society. This isn't just about construction. It's about how we treat each other as humans. If we want a better industry and a better world, we need to stop tearing people down and start helping them improve. Listen in, and let's build cultures that elevate people instead of discarding them.

This episode isn't comfortable and it's not meant to be. Jason takes on a tough but necessary conversation about the cultural mindset that's holding us back. Too often, we wear stagnation, ignorance, and fear like badges of honor. “I haven't read a book in 30 years.” “We've always done it this way.” “AI will take our jobs.” These aren't harmless phrases, they're symptoms of decline. Jason draws from history, industry, and hard truth to challenge us: Why fear and ignorance have become tools of control in governments, companies, and even daily conversations. How the U.S. once thrived on continuous improvement, education, and courage and what it would take to reclaim that mindset. Why tariffs, isolation, and complacency are signs of decline not solutions. What construction professionals can do to reject stagnation and become the true voices of progress. This isn't about politics. It's about leadership, courage, and the future of our industry and our nation. If you're tired of seeing fear and ignorance celebrated, and you're ready to step into improvement and knowledge, this is an episode you can't afford to skip.

Most of us see stress as the villain in our story. But what if it's actually a tool, even a superpower? In this episode, Jason Schroeder is joined by licensed therapist Barbara Hettinger, who brings years of experience in trauma, family, and mental health work. Together, they break down how stress works, why it isn't inherently “bad,” and how you can flip the script to use stress as fuel for focus, growth, and resilience. What you'll take away from this episode: Why stress is neutral not good, not bad and how your response makes the difference. A three-step method to acknowledge, welcome, and use stress to your advantage. How reframing stress can turn ADHD, OCD, or daily struggles into hidden superpowers. Practical tools to stay within your “window of tolerance” and find calm under pressure. Real stories from the field about leaders transforming stress into clarity and action. This isn't just another talk about “managing stress.” It's about re-imagining it as a force that can sharpen your edge and strengthen your leadership. If you're in construction or just navigating the stress of daily life, this episode will help you rethink the pressure you feel and use it to build something remarkable.

It's a brutal time to be a federal worker. On the heels of mass federal layoffs, another round looms. Project 2025 orchestrator and now leader of the White House budget office, Russel Vought, is telling federal agencies to ready reduction-in-force plans for mass firings in the event of a government shutdown. These would not be furloughs but permanent firings. He is specifically targeting employees attached to programs that are not legally required to continue and don't align with Trump's priorities. We are very excited to welcome our newest, regular guest, author, Sarah Kendzior, to discuss this and more. Former Federal Prosecutor David Katz offers legal analysis on possible action against the U.S. from the maker of Tylenol and AG Pam Bondi being told to investigate Trump's adversaries right now or else.

White House prepares for widespread layoffs of federal workers at government agencies if there is a government shutdown starting October 1st, the new fiscal year. We will hear from the House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries, President Donald Trump, and talk with Reuters congressional reporter Bo Erickson (10); President Trump signs a deal to facilitate the sale of TikTok from a Chinese-based company to a group of American investors; Texas law enforcement says the 29 year old who open fired at a Dallas Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility, killing one person, wounding two more, wrote a note that said “hopefully this will give ICE agents real terror”; Turkey's President visits the White House Oval Office. President Trump calls on Turkey to stop buying Russian oil.

In this deeply personal episode, John opens up about the two most influential money legacies in his life: his father, a relentless hustling businessman, and his mother, a disciplined hourly worker who quietly built lasting wealth. Through their contrasting approaches—one fueled by entrepreneurship and hustle, the other by financial literacy, credit, and steady investing—John explores powerful lessons about success, failure, and the true keys to generational wealth. From stories of family businesses, lost fortunes, and hard-won financial wisdom, John challenges listeners to rethink what it really takes to build stability and prosperity. Hustle may open the door, but strategy, stewardship, and smart money habits are what keep you in the room. If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s better to grind as an entrepreneur or build steadily as an employee, this episode will change the way you look at money, wealth, and legacy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this interview, Matt sits down with not just one, but two special guests: Jason and Crystalina Evert. The conversation is all about marriage, particularly how to navigate the tough times in marriage and parenthood with your spouse and come out on the other side stronger than ever before. Plus, at the end, Jason & Crystalina answer questions from Locals supporters.

There's a common saying in construction: “You're not doing your job unless your name's on the porta john.” Jason and Mark Story break it down and break it apart. Disrespect is not a badge of honor. It's a warning sign that leadership is failing. Instead, they show how real leaders win trust and build high-performing jobs by supporting their teams, not fighting them. You'll hear field-tested stories of: Turning messy, conflict-heavy projects into stable, clean, and respectful jobsites. Why adding restrooms and daily worker huddles can instantly boost morale and productivity. How trades are already bending over backwards and what GCs must do to better support them Why “leadership” boils down to one thing: removing roadblocks so your people can succeed. This episode is about more than porta john graffiti. It's about flipping the culture of construction from disrespect to dignity, from chaos to flow.   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

The government's ditching the Holidays act and replacing it with the Employment Leave Act. After 6 months on the job all workers generally qualify for ten sick days a year .. regardless of whether they are part or full time. The new law will mean part time workers accrue sick leave according to how many hours they have actually worked, the same will apply for annual leave. Part-time retail worker Jess Fuller spoke to Lisa Owen about the change.

Too many leaders want Lean to be “instant pudding” just add water and see results. The truth? Real transformation isn't instant, and it will never happen by delegating change or running small pilot experiments. In this episode, Jason explains: Why true Lean scale takes 18–24 months, not overnight fixes. The “three of three” essentials every company needs to succeed. Why leaders not consultants must own the operating system. The non-negotiables every site and team must follow to achieve excellence. How total participation and accountability drive sustainable results. If you're ready to stop chasing shortcuts and start building systems that actually scale, this is the episode to hit play on.   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

Unions spark some of the strongest emotions in construction. Jason finally tackles the topic head-on sharing both the best and worst he's seen. From world-class training halls to toxic bullying, from skilled Southern California carpenters to right-to-work states with weaker pipelines, he unpacks why unions exist, where they add value, and where they've gone off track. In this episode, Jason covers: Why unions are ultimately our fault, a response to toxic management and disrespect for people. The undeniable benefits: training, tools, benefits, and raising the bar on craft quality. The dark side: threats, vandalism, mafia-like behavior, and how that destroys trust. Real examples from California, Texas, Arizona, and Illinois that show both extremes. Why “all union” vs. “no union” politics is broken and what a balanced path could look like. A bigger truth: nobody in the U.S. should be threatened or killed for their beliefs, union or non-union. The bottom line: if companies want to avoid unions, they must take better care of their people. And if unions want lasting respect, they must hold themselves accountable to higher standards.

From boot camps to field training, Jason shows why our schools and even many corporate programs are broken, and how the construction industry can step up with meaningful education that sticks. In this episode, you'll hear: Why grading and homework are damaging and outdated. How schools condition kids to stay quiet instead of staying curious. Why colleges and traditional training leave people siloed and scared to speak up. Examples of companies (Hensel Phelps, Petticoat-Schmidt, O'Shea Builders) doing training the right way. Why ignorance benefits the ruling class and why we must fight it with education. The dangerous excuses we keep repeating in construction (“workers are the problem,” “we can't do that here,” “retention is fine”) and why they're all wrong. The books, tools, and lean practices that every builder should be learning and applying today. Jason's challenge is simple: training, training, and more training. Not once a year, not when it's convenient, every day, until learning becomes the heartbeat of your company. Because we don't rise to the level of our ambitions, we fall to the level of our training. If you're ready to swap ignorance for growth and excuses for real learning, this episode will light a fire.

Competition may sound like it sharpens us, but in practice it creates waste, weakens innovation, and leaves most of us struggling while a tiny fraction benefits. Cooperation, on the other hand, unlocks speed, quality, and respect for people. In this episode, Jason shares: A powerful example of how rivalry once stopped firefighters from saving lives. Why Asian manufacturers thrive on total participation while U.S. industries stall. How CPM schedules and competitive contracts reinforce the wrong behaviors. The overlooked “ninth waste” in construction: competition itself. Personal stories of being punished for helping others and why that mindset is broken. He challenges leaders to imagine a jobsite where trades, GCs, and partners stop hoarding information and start sharing openly. What would happen if instead of fighting each other, we fought waste together? If you're ready to flip the script from rivalry to results, this is the episode to hit play on.   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
