From professional wakeboarder to CEO managing $250M+ in commercial real estate investments, Nick Jones shares proven strategies for building successful real estate businesses through strategic partnerships, effective capital raising, and protecting investor interests. In this episode of the DealQuest Podcast, host Corey Kupfer sits down with Nick Jones, CEO of Alakai Capital, who has underwritten and acquired over 70 commercial investments and developments representing more than $250 million in value. Nick currently oversees 800,000+ square feet of industrial, retail, office, and medical assets across multiple states. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: In this episode, you'll discover how to raise outside capital for your first commercial real estate deal while protecting downside risk, why syndication can work better than funds when you can close deals quickly with trusted investors, and the surprising truth about "off-market" deals versus listed properties in today's transparent market. Nick shares how to build broker relationships that generate consistent deal flow without constantly hunting for opportunities, due diligence strategies when high-credit tenants won't share financial information, and why Covid flipped conventional wisdom about credit tenants versus mom and pop operators. You'll also learn about the strategic value of balancing consistent real estate returns with selective angel investments, how to navigate market trends including drive-through retail and efficiency-focused opportunities, and what freedom means beyond just financial independence. NICK'S JOURNEY: Nick's path wasn't linear. Growing up near Microsoft and Nintendo in Redmond, Washington, he found real estate "incredibly boring" until witnessing how it connected to fascinating industries. After his father and grandfather passed away during his senior year of high school, Nick moved to Florida to pursue professional wakeboarding, eventually earning a podium finish at the World Championships in 2011 while graduating summa cum laude from the University of Central Florida. The dean of UCF's real estate program, whose son was also a professional athlete, reignited Nick's interest in commercial real estate investment and development. Nick started in land brokerage during 2011-2012 when Florida land was worth less than the buildings next to it, learning through challenging cold calls to developers. FIRST DEAL LESSONS: Nick's entry into investing came through a vacant Taco Bell property. Working with a broker partner, they secured the building, signed a 10-year lease with a new tenant, and only had to replace the HVAC and roof. The timing proved fortunate - securing 80% loan to value at 2% interest on an interest-only basis during the post-financial crisis recovery. That first deal taught valuable lessons about protecting downside risk and building tenant relationships while delivering one of his strongest returns ever. CAPITAL RAISING EVOLUTION: For his first capital raise, Nick bought an old bank branch all cash with plans to tear it down and build a quick service restaurant. To protect downside risk as a new sponsor, he structured it with no debt and two years of interest and tax reserves. After approaching friends' parents, fellow brokers, and creating a detailed investment memorandum, a tenant approached wanting to lease the existing building as-is with a 10-year lease. Nick refinanced at 50% LTV, pulled equity out, and used those proceeds to buy a second deal. That snowball effect has grown to approximately 100 investors making about 500 investments with his company. KEY INSIGHTS: Nick continues syndicating individual deals instead of raising funds because his deals follow similar patterns with consistent return theses. This approach gives investors freedom to select which markets and property types align with their preferences while maintaining speed to close. Managing investor capital creates heightened responsibility that sharpens every aspect of deal execution. Nick approaches it similarly to personally guaranteeing loans - while losing your own capital is unfortunate, losing someone else's carries profound implications for relationships and reputation. The biggest lesson from deals that didn't go as planned: contracts matter, but people matter just as much. When tenants respond unusually quickly to lease documents without redlines for 10-15 year commitments, it raises red flags. During Covid, high-credit tenants had attorneys advising them to stop paying rent while small bay industrial mom and pop tenants maintained perfect payment records. BROKER RELATIONSHIPS: The majority of Nick's deals come through brokers he's built long-term relationships with over years. These relationships prove valuable because brokers trust Nick will maintain confidentiality, move quickly through underwriting, and they understand his investment criteria. After years of exchanging deals and feedback, brokers know which opportunities match his thesis. MARKET TRENDS: Interest rate movements create near-term positivity while inflation continues hitting sectors unevenly, creating inefficiencies and opportunities. The retail apocalypse predictions following Covid haven't materialized because people still crave experiences. Drive-throughs represent a clear trend as efficiency becomes paramount - almost every concept has figured out how to use them successfully, including Chipotle proving the model works for food types that seemed ill-suited initially. Perfect for real estate investors considering raising outside capital, operators building broker networks, and anyone interested in how successful commercial real estate investors structure deals and protect investor capital.FOR MORE ON THIS EPISODE: https://www.coreykupfer.com/blog/nickjones FOR MORE ON NICK JONES:https://www.alakai-capital.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/alakaicapital/https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickjonesrealestate/https://www.instagram.com/alakaicapital/ FOR MORE ON COREY KUPFERhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/coreykupfer/https://www.coreykupfer.com/ Corey Kupfer is an expert strategist, negotiator, and dealmaker.

British national record–holding freediver Ruth Osborne is back — and let's just say the last two years have been anything but smooth sailing. Ear infections, cancelled competition days, Caribbean chaos, burnout, and a couple of “is this my last dive ever?” moments… Ruth lays it all out with the kind of honesty most people avoid.This episode isn't about glory dives or perfect outcomes. It's about what happens when the thing you love keeps punching you in the gut — and why you still get back in the water anyway.We get into her training, mindset shifts, the ugly parts of high-level sport, and the surprising decision to coach herself. If you need a reminder that the path rarely looks pretty, this is it.Key TakeawaysProgress without outcome is still progress. Ruth's technique, strength and awareness are on another level — even if the number on the dive line hasn't moved yet.Setbacks don't mean you're wrong for the path — sometimes they're just annoying. Ear infections, heat, UTIs, and slanted dive lines aren't “signs from the universe.” They're life.You can love the process even when you hate the results. That's the real test of commitment.Self-awareness beats brute force. From redefining nutrition to noticing burnout, Ruth shows what “listening to your body” actually looks like.Retiring wasn't the answer — remembering her ‘why' was.Coaching herself is the next evolution. She's backing her own experience, instincts, and discipline.Rest isn't optional. Especially when you're diving 80+ metres on one breath.Long-term mindset > short-term wins. She's building for depth, longevity, and a life lived well — not a single medal moment.Timestamps0:00 – Ruth is back: two years later, a lot deeper (mentally if not yet physically)2:00 – Competitions, ear infections and the brutal timing of setbacks4:15 – What “current” does to a dive and why it matters8:00 – Pressure, performance windows and keeping your head straight12:00 – Reacting vs choosing your reaction16:00 – When outcome and effort don't match20:00 – Nutrition, protein and what changed for Ruth in her 40s33:00 – The Dominica chapter: volcanoes, heat exhaustion and angry afternoons39:00 – “Do I retire?” — Ruth hits her breaking point44:00 – Why she stays in the game: rebuilding her ‘why'52:00 – World Championships, coaching herself and designing a healthier training balance56:00 – What's next: May competitions and a new chapter on her terms Hosted on Acast.

How is the process going for 2025?  Is Michael going "back-to-back"? I hope everyone enjoys the "CSI Chat" with the top Excel user on the planet Michael Jarman.  

F1TV expert and six-time IndyCar race winner, James Hinchcliffe, joins Tom Clarkson to preview this weekend's Las Vegas Grand Prix. Lando Norris leads Oscar Piastri at the top of the World Championship by 24 points. With three races and one F1 Sprint to go, there are still 83 up for grabs.  So how will Lando and Oscar approach this triple header? Hinch shares his thoughts on the mindset of both McLaren drivers and tells Tom why it's still all to play for despite Lando's advantage. Max Verstappen is now 49 points adrift of Lando but, while his title hopes look slim, will he and Red Bull still be fighting for wins and have a say in the championship outcome? Plus, Ferrari have been on the Vegas podium two years in a row. Could this be the track where they score a first Grand Prix win of the season? After their double DNF in Brazil, Ferrari chairman John Elkann said Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc need to ‘talk less and focus on driving'. How does Hinch think those comments will impact the team?

“I had worked too damn hard to get back to the line to just accept defeat and sit there and not even finish the race. I didn't even have to think about it. I just got straight back into it… I think it was a bit of a blessing in disguise since I didn't know what my fitness was like coming in. I thought it was decent, but this was almost an extra test of, ‘Can you fall in the last lap and still make the final? Then alright, you must be pretty fit!' I tried to take it in a positive light. To be able to do that as comfortably as I did meant that I was in a good spot.”My guest for today's episode is George Beamish, the 2025 world champion in the men's 3000m steeplechase. If you somehow missed it, go back and watch that last lap in Tokyo. It was one for the ages. George was 11th with 400m to go, behind the world record holder and the reigning four-time global champion, but this is textbook George we're talking about. The guy who has made a career out of chaos and closing speed in those final stages of the race.In this episode, he'll put you in his shoes for the final lap and how he flipped the story of that race on its head. He stopped the clock in 8:33, the slowest winning time for the steeplechase at a global championship since 1968 and somehow one of the most electric finishes that you'll ever see.For New Zealand, it was their first gold in a track event at Worlds in a long time. For Beamish, it was validation after years of injuries and disappointments at global championships and that with a little bit of belief, he'd still be able to prove his best. Today we talk about that race and the season as a whole.____________Host: Chris Chavez | ⁠⁠@chris_j_chavez on Instagram⁠Guest: George Beamish | @georgebeamish on InstagramProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr on Instagram⁠⁠⁠____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSNOMIO: Made with 80% broccoli sprout juice, 15% lemon juice, and 5% sugar, Nomio activates your body's natural defense systems to reduce lactate, speed recovery, and enhance muscle adaptation.

This week on Talking Triathlon we unpack all the action from the 70.3 World Championships. We start with the overall event before discussing the broadcast challenges, including the acknowledged technical failure that meant the final 1.5 kilometres of the men's race were missed, even though it ended up being the most exciting moment of the entire weekend. We break down the women's race, where Lucy Charles-Barclay claimed another world title, Taylor Knibb finished second, and Kat Matthews was forced to withdraw with a calf issue. Then we move to the men's race, which came down to a thrilling sprint finish as Jelle Geens held off Kristian Blummenfelt, with Casper Stornes securing third. To wrap things up we look ahead to T100 Dubai, talk through why Hayden Wilde did not race the World Championships, and preview a strong field led by Hayden and Marten Van Riel in the men's race, with Julie Derron returning in the women's.

#841 Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/841      Presented by: Yellowstone Teton Territory - Visit Idaho  In this episode, we sit down with Joe Clark of Trout Yeah Guide Service to talk about his trout bum life. Joe has guided everywhere from Steelhead Alley to Pennsylvania spring creeks, and he's also coached Team USA Youth to three straight World Championship titles. We dig into what it means to read new water with confidence, how to use drift angles instead of heavier flies, and why sensitivity and feel often matter more than the gear you're holding. Joe also shares stories from Idaho, Montana, and the Kootenays, along with his own experiences living the trout bum lifestyle one creek and one van trip at a time. If you're interested in becoming a more thoughtful angler and slowing down enough to see what the river is telling you, this episode has a lot to offer. Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/841

No American runner made more noise in 2025 than Nico Young.The 23-year-old prodigy smashed the 5,000m American record, claimed his first national title, and battled the world's best in Tokyo. In June, he stormed through the Bislett Games in Oslo, running 12:45.27 for 5,000 meters, which was a new American record. Barely two months later, he claimed his first U.S. title at 10,000 meters in Eugene, clocking 29:02.12 to solidify his dominance on home soil. Then, on the world's biggest stage in Tokyo, Young placed fifth in the 10,000m at the 2025 World Championships, closing his breakout season in a dynamic way.Young's rise has been meteoric but methodical. A former NCAA champion from Northern Arizona University, he first stunned the sport in 2024 by debuting at 26:52.72 for 10,000 meters–an NCAA and American collegiate record–then qualifying for the 2024 Paris Olympics, where he finished 12th. Turning pro with Adidas that summer, he entered 2025 with sharper focus and the freedom to train through longer, uninterrupted blocks under coach Mike Smith in Flagstaff, Arizona.Now a national champion, world finalist, and record holder, Young owns personal bests of 12:45.27 (5,000m), 26:52.72 (10,000m), and 7:37.73 (3,000m).

OVERVIEWCyclists rely on their sense of hearing more than you might imagine, to hear traffic coming, to communicate with fellow riders during group rides and races, to listen for gear shifts and labored breathing from competitors, and even to discern wind direction. Dmitry Rossoshansky doesn't hear any of that, nor does he hear your pleas for mercy when he's crushing it at the front! In Episode #280 of "The Time-Crunched Cyclist Podcast", Dima and CTS Coach Adam Pulford, with the assistance of sign language interpreters Maureen Plonk and Courtney Szymanski, discuss navigating group rides and races as a deaf athlete and a teammate to hearing athletes, along with how he is training for the 2025 Deaflympics in Japan as a Time-Crunched Cyclist with a full-time job, a spouse, and a young daughter.Note: The female voice you hear is Courtney interpreting as Dmitry communicates via sign language. Topics Covered In This Episode:About the DeaflympicsNavigating races and group rides without soundTraining tools for hearing impaired athletesResourcesDonations to Deaflympic Cycling Team:Deaf Cycling Team IG:Deaflympics:Cycling ScheduleDima's InstagramParalympic Podcast with Jim LehmanGuest Bio:Dmitry Rossoshansky's journey as a cyclist began in 2018, inspired by a close friend and fueled by his passion for endurance sports.

Today’s episode's incredibly special. Not only is it the Season 20 premiere of Hurdle, but we're bringing you my conversation with the American Record Holder and Olympic Champion in the 100-meter hurdles, Masai Russell. Fresh off her win at Athlos in New York City, Russell joins us to peel back the curtain on the mindset that allowed her to make the U.S. Olympic team, emerge victorious on the world stage, and break records in the process. This conversation was filmed live at Nike’s New York headquarters in front of an incredible audience, many of whom were gearing up for the New York City Marathon. It’s a motivational pre-game for any big moment, whether we’re talking about sport—or beyond. In the episode, Masai is incredibly candid about the struggles she faced in her first professional year, the adversity she had to overcome, and the mental shift she made to change her entire career trajectory. She also shares why, in her mind, she never fails, and how that perspective helps her turn every setback into a blessing. I've also got a big announcement: Today, Hurdle joins iHeart Women's Sports Network! A massive milestone years in the making, thanks so much for being a part of this community and following along for the ride. IN THIS EPISODE The competitive fire Masai developed by growing up with older brothers. Why Masai made the surprising choice to follow her coach and transfer to the University of Kentucky. The essential self-belief required to succeed at an elite level. Her mindset in the starting blocks for the 100m hurdles. Why showing up for yourself, even on bad days, is crucial to building success. The adversity and mental challenges she faced during her first professional year. The daily journaling and self-talk practices that shape her mindset. Why her tough finish (4th place) at the World Championships was ultimately the best thing for her. Her advice for dealing with the pressure and expectations of social media fame. Her big goals: from buying a house at 24 to breaking the World Record and winning in Los Angeles in 2028. QUOTABLE MOMENTS On the power of belief:"I just told myself when I got out there on the line, whatever's going to happen is going to happen, and I think once I kind of let the my ego go and let what I thought I should be or what the expectations of what people put on to me, once I let all that go out the door, I just felt free." On why she never fails:"I'll never fail because it's always a lesson to turn me into what the world will see. And that's always my mindset." On her mindset in the starting blocks:"There's nothing more that's going to change or the outcome isn't going to change. Literally just show up and be, and whatever that outcome is going to be, that's just what it is, and you have to be okay with it." On her mental tools:"It's literally just about like what I feel in that moment at that time, at that day. It could be like, 'Go out there, kill it, lock in, zone out, be you!' ... or it could be just like whatever is literally on my heart and mind."

Born in Seattle, Washington, in 1949, Randy Rarick moved with his family to Hawaii when he was five. He started surfing at age 10, under the tutelage of the Waikiki Beach Boys. He was a Hawaiian state junior champ, and made the semifinals of the 1970 World Championships in Australia.  In 1976, at age 26, Randy and 1968 world champion Fred Hemmings founded International Professional Surfing, aka the IPS, which linked together what at the time were fragmented pro events around the world. They established a ratings system and a world tour, which ended with the crowning of a world champion. In 1983, Randy spearheaded the Triple Crown of Surfing, which linked together the three North Shore events, and also crowned a champion. Randy would helm the Triple Crown for the next 30 years. Randy is also a surfboard shaper. He was taught how to shape by Dick Brewer and George Downing, and went on to make boards for Surf Line Hawaii, Dewey Weber, and Lightning Bolt. While Randy might be one of the most widely traveled surfers of all time, having ridden waves in over 70 countries, he's called the North Shore home since 1969, and has lived in the same house at Sunset Beach for more than 50 years. He surfs out front, i.e., his backyard, regularly. In this episode of Soundings, Rarick sits down with Jamie Brisick to talk about about the birth of the IPS and the Triple Crown, learning to shape from the masters, rating systems and standardization, surf purism, the importance of Hawaii, and spending a year traveling up the west coast of Africa.  Produced by Jonathan Shifflett. Music by PazKa (Aska Matsumiya & Paz Lenchantin).

On this episode, I sit down with pro mountain biker and endurance powerhouse Hannah Otto to talk about the mental and physical strategies that fuel her remarkable performances from setting FKTs on the Moab Triple Crown to racing in the Lifetime Grand Prix and World Championships.Hannah shares how she's built a life around adventure and purpose, balancing the technical and tactical side of elite racing with the mindset tools that keep her grounded and thriving. We dive into her journey from triathlon to mountain biking, lessons from the Leadville 100 win, and how she approaches fear, failure, and focus with the same level of intention she brings to every ride.We also unpack what she calls the “psychological similarity” between pros and everyday athletes, the shared experience of pushing limits, battling self-doubt, and chasing growth for its own sake. Hannah talks about working with a sports psychologist, learning to control what you can and release what you can't, and how her “CocoPelli Strong” mantra has become a symbol of resilience after one of her toughest days on the trail.Episode Art Photo Credit: Marcus Graciaskimo gold, endurance and life coaching with brief testimonials

We're so excited about this week's Coaches Corner interview with none other than Jordyn Wieber, now in her sixth season as head coach of the Arkansas Razorbacks! Even with some key injuries last season, the Razorbacks still put together a strong run. Remember, they upset both LSU and Florida when those teams were ranked No. 2 in the nation! While the end of the season didn't go quite as planned — missing out on SEC Championships and not qualifying for NCAAs as a team — we think that's just going to light a fire under them heading into this year.Expect the Razorbacks to bring the heat in 2026. Between the talented returners, some big-name transfers, and an incredible freshman class — plus Joscelyn Roberson, who just brought home a World Championship bronze medal on vault — this Razorback squad is stacked and ready to make some noise.A huge shoutout to our friend Anthony for helping us out with this interview. Thank you to our monthly Patreon supporters: Lee B, Cookiemaster, Christa, Happy Girl, Erica S, Semflam, Amy C, Maria L, Becca S, Cathleen R, Faith, Kerry M, M, Derek H, Martin, Sharon B, Randee B, MSU, Kimberly G, Robert H, Lela M, Mara L, Jenna A, Alex M, Mama T, Kelsey, Lidia, Maria P, Alicia O, Cristina K, Bethany J, Diane J, Kentiemac, Marni S, Betny T, Emily C, Cathy D, Lisa T, Libby C, Thiago, Taryn M, Dana B, Jamie S, Chuck C, Je_GL, Kaitlin, Susan P, Mallory D, LFC_Hokie, Ella, Debbie, Kay, Diane J, Julie B,, Austin K, Jane, Sarah, Amy, Stephen S, Johanna T, Alison S, Kristina T, Abigail W, Becky, Ola S, Jennifer K, Kate M, Claudia, Erin L, Sarah A, Kennedy B, Thomas B, Kihika N, Beth C, Amy, Renee PM, Ryan V, Brandon H, Tyler, Hayley B, Ben S, Kate, Landon, Danielle, ALittleUnderRotated, Dana C, Grace, Pat G , Lexi G, Laura N, Kathy, Katie A, Ruby B,, Róisín, Becca, Megan J, Emily D, Britton, Ry Shep, Reyna G, William A, MB, Jackson G, Brittany A, Stella, Ulo F, Noah C, Melissa H, Alexis, William M, Trish, Susie, Leslie G, Catherine B, Karlin, Laura L, Katy S, J'nia G, Kathy M, Kathy S, Okcaro, Caroline P, JD B, Cookiecutter, Ailish D, Wil D, Caroline M, kcmojojojo, Sammy S, Fabio B, Kerry H, Ricardo A, Brandon, Leah D, Joe S, Margaret G, Molly, Marco B, ClemsonTigersFan & Lisa B!
