As the largest state-focused innovation experience in Lone Star State history, this co-created signature event celebrates local startup communities while linking them into a single, unified statewide network. Driven by a diverse coalition of venture capital firms, accelerators, universities, economic development corporations, and civic organizations, the festival showcases how Texas collaborates across regional lines to power economic growth.

Boca Raton, Florida (Newsworthy.ai) Tuesday Sep 29, 2026 @ 6:00 AM Eastern — NWB Finland Oy has completed its participation in the 2026 ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, where the Finnish company introduced U.S. retail buyers to AINA Natural Water and a different approach to the premium water category. Rather than competing for space as another individually bottled premium water, AINA enters the U.S. market in larger 5-liter and 10-liter bag-in-box formats. NWB Finland Oy used its ECRM participation to highlight how that format can give retailers a distinctive product for their water assortment while addressing growing consumer interest in packaging waste and sustainability. "ECRM gave us an opportunity to introduce retailers to both AINA Natural Water and the thinking behind the product," said Marita Weiman, Quality Assurance Manager at NWB Finland Oy. "We believe there is an opportunity to approach premium water differently, with a format that stands apart at retail and gives consumers an alternative to purchasing water in individual plastic bottles." A Retail Proposition Built Around Differentiation AINA Natural Water combines two elements NWB Finland Oy believes can help differentiate the brand in the U.S. market: naturally filtered groundwater from Northern Finland and sustainability-focused packaging designed for everyday use. For retailers, the bag-in-box format offers a visually different presentation from conventional bottled water while providing a straightforward sustainability story that can be communicated to shoppers. The larger format is designed for use in homes, offices, hospitality settings and other environments where consumers want convenient access to premium drinking water. By packaging multiple liters in a single bag-in-box, AINA also uses substantially less plastic than comparable volumes packaged in individual plastic bottles. "Retail buyers see a tremendous number of new products, so differentiation matters," Weiman said. "Our conversations at ECRM gave us the opportunity to explain why the AINA format is an important part of the brand, not simply the container the water comes in." Northern Finland Inside the Box AINA Natural Water originates in the Pudasjärvi region of Northern Finland, where groundwater is naturally filtered through layers of soil, sand and rock before being mechanically filtered and packaged. The water contains approximately 32 mg/L of Total Dissolved Solids (TDS). Its naturally low mineral content contributes to AINA's soft, neutral taste and clean finish. NWB Finland Oy's ECRM participation comes as the company moves from introducing AINA to the U.S. market to making the product available to American consumers. AINA Natural Water is coming to OneLavi.com, representing the brand's first U.S. consumer availability. The company is also preparing inventory for shipment from Finland to the United States as it moves forward with its U.S. launch. "For us, ECRM was another step in building AINA's presence in the United States," Weiman said. "We came to show retailers that premium water can offer something different through its source, its format and the story retailers can share with their customers." For more information about AINA Natural Water, visit AINA Natural Water. To learn more about NWB Finland Oy, visit NWB Finland Oy. About NWB Finland Oy NWB Finland Oy is a Finland-based company focused on sustainable beverage packaging and natural water solutions. Headquartered in Pudasjärvi, Finland, the company was founded with a mission to develop environmentally responsible alternatives to traditional beverage packaging while delivering premium-quality products to consumers around the world. Its flagship brand, AINA Natural Water, features naturally filtered groundwater sourced from Northern Finland, a region known for its pristine natural environment and abundant groundwater resources. The water is packaged in innovative bag-in-box formats designed to reduce plastic consumption while providing a convenient solution for households, businesses, hospitality venues, and events. NWB Finland Oy's long-term vision is to make Northern Finland's natural groundwater available to consumers globally while continuing to invest in sustainable packaging solutions that support both consumer needs and environmental responsibility.

Boca Raton, Florida (Newsworthy.ai) Tuesday Sep 29, 2026 @ 5:00 AM Eastern — As September's Healthy Aging Month draws attention to how people can maintain health throughout their lifespan, new market research is pointing to another shift taking place within the growing longevity category: increased interest in products built around multiple biological processes associated with aging rather than individual ingredients alone. For AgeReverse, a Canadian longevity company expanding into the United States, the trend closely aligns with the philosophy behind its flagship RESURGE formulation and its broader approach to healthy aging. The Hallmarks of Aging are a scientific framework used to organize the interconnected biological processes associated with aging. Originally introduced with nine hallmarks in 2013, the framework was expanded to 12 in 2023 and has become an increasingly recognized reference point in aging research. A recent HTF Market Intelligence report examining the North American Longevity Hallmarks-of-Aging Nutraceuticals Market estimates the category at $1.46 billion in 2025 and projects it could reach approximately $5.98 billion by 2034, representing a compound annual growth rate of 16.9%. More significant than the projected growth, however, is how HTF describes the market's evolution. The report identifies a shift from generic products toward mechanism-based longevity formulations targeting individual hallmarks or combinations of aging pathways. It also points to growing use of multi-ingredient formulations addressing areas such as antioxidant activity, mitochondrial function, metabolism and cellular health. "Longevity is much more complex than any single ingredient or biological pathway," said Kubi Turkmen, Founder and CEO of AgeReverse. "The 12 Hallmarks give us a framework for looking at aging more comprehensively. That philosophy has been central to AgeReverse from the beginning and is why we believe the future of healthy aging will increasingly focus on multiple interconnected processes." The 12 Hallmarks of Aging encompass biological processes including genomic instability, telomere attrition, epigenetic alterations, loss of proteostasis, disabled macroautophagy, deregulated nutrient sensing, mitochondrial dysfunction, cellular senescence, stem cell exhaustion, altered intercellular communication, chronic inflammation and dysbiosis. AgeReverse developed RESURGE around this broader framework rather than positioning the formulation around a single ingredient. The 90-capsule product combines ingredients including NMN, Resveratrol, Quercetin, Fisetin, CoQ10, Astragalus Extract, Hyaluronic Acid, Aronia Extract and Noni Berry. Key features and benefits of RESURGE include: Designed to support all 12 Hallmarks of Aging through a comprehensive longevity-focused formulation Combines ingredients including NMN, Resveratrol, Quercetin, Fisetin, CoQ10, Astragalus Extract, Hyaluronic Acid, Aronia Extract, and Noni Berry Provides antioxidant support to help protect cells from oxidative stress and free radical damage Supports nutrient metabolism and overall cellular health Helps support cardiovascular health and immune system function Supports collagen formation, connective tissue development, and skin quality Helps maintain healthy joints, cartilage, bones, gums, and connective tissue Includes herbal ingredients traditionally used as capillary and blood vessel protectants Consolidates what the company describes as 15+ supplement protocols into a simplified 3-capsule daily routine Manufactured in GMP-certified facilities in Ontario, Canada using vegan capsules The market trend also reflects a broader evolution in the longevity conversation. Rather than concentrating solely on lifespan, researchers, consumers and companies are increasingly discussing healthy aging in terms of maintaining vitality, function and overall well-being throughout the aging process. That distinction is important to AgeReverse as the company expands beyond nutritional products. AgeReverse is developing what it describes as an inside-and-out approach to healthy aging built around the same 12 Hallmarks framework. Its broader product range is expected to include a Bioage Test, daily skincare products, professional mesotherapy products and non-invasive mesotherapy technology, alongside RESURGE. "We don't view healthy aging as something that can be addressed from only one direction," Turkmen added. "Our long-term vision is to connect internal wellness, skin care and professional aesthetic solutions through a science-first approach to the biological processes associated with aging." The company's U.S. expansion has accelerated in recent months. RESURGE is now available to American consumers through Amazon, and AgeReverse recently completed participation in the ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, as it explores additional opportunities within the U.S. retail market. As scientific understanding of aging continues to develop, AgeReverse says it plans to continue building its product range around research into the biological mechanisms associated with healthy aging. RESURGE is now available to U.S. consumers on Amazon. AgeReverse plans to continue expanding its product range and U.S. presence as additional products become available.

Boca Raton, Florida (Newsworthy.ai) Tuesday Sep 29, 2026 @ 5:00 AM Eastern — As Healthy Aging Month comes to a close, the conversation around ageing well increasingly extends beyond any single aspect of health. Weight management, cognitive wellness, gut health, nutrition and men's and women's wellbeing are becoming part of a broader conversation about how people maintain their wellbeing throughout different stages of life. Wolfson Group, a Scotland-based international consumer wellness company, believes that shift is contributing to the rise of what it describes as the multi-category wellness consumer, an individual whose interests and priorities extend across several areas of everyday wellbeing rather than fitting neatly within a single wellness category. "Healthy ageing is a good example of how interconnected wellness has become," said Scott Dingwall, Founder and CEO of Wolfson Group. "People may be thinking about their weight, cognitive performance, gut health, energy and other aspects of wellbeing at the same time. Increasingly, those aren't separate conversations." For Wolfson Group, the trend reflects a broader evolution in how consumers approach everyday wellness. Rather than viewing areas such as nutrition, cognition, digestion and healthy aging independently, consumers may increasingly see them as different parts of a larger lifestyle. The company believes consumers are increasingly assembling their own approaches to wellness based on personal priorities, lifestyles and stages of life. Those priorities can also change over time, making wellness less about belonging to a single category and more about addressing a combination of interests. That shift may have implications for retailers as well. Traditional retail categories remain important for helping consumers navigate products, but shoppers may arrive with interests that cross several departments or wellness segments. For brands, Wolfson Group believes the trend also increases the importance of consumer education. As wellness choices expand, companies have a responsibility to communicate clearly about what their products are, what category they serve and how they fit within a broader approach to everyday wellbeing. "The opportunity isn't about trying to make every product do everything," Dingwall said. "It's about recognizing that consumers can have several wellness priorities at the same time and helping them understand those categories in a clear and responsible way." Wolfson Group's portfolio reflects that multi-category approach and includes the established wellness brands PhenQ, TestoPrime, NooCube and YourBiology, spanning categories such as weight management, cognitive wellness, gut health and men's wellbeing. The multi-category perspective also aligns with Wolfson Group's broader U.S. strategy. The company has established a presence through Amazon and is working to expand its reach through additional online and brick-and-mortar retail channels. Following its September participation in the ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, Wolfson Group continues to explore how its diversified portfolio can fit within the evolving U.S. wellness marketplace. As it expands in the United States, Wolfson Group said it plans to continue examining emerging consumer behaviors and wellness trends while investing in consumer education, science-led brand development and a portfolio strategy built around multiple aspects of everyday wellbeing. About Wolfson Group Wolfson Group is an international consumer wellness company focused on building science-led brands that help people live healthier lives. Its portfolio spans weight management, cognitive health, gut health, men's wellness, beauty and healthy ageing, serving millions of consumers worldwide through direct-to-consumer, marketplace and retail channels. Wolfson Group's portfolio includes the established wellness brands PhenQ, TestoPrime, NooCube and YourBiology, spanning categories such as weight management, cognitive wellness, gut health and men's wellbeing. The brands are currently available to U.S. consumers through Amazon while the company pursues broader retail opportunities nationwide.

Fredericksburg, Texas (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Sep 28, 2026 @ 10:15 AM Central — Episode 1907 of the No Agenda Show, titled "One Shotted," published September 27, 2026, features host Adam Curry broadcasting from the Texas Hill Country alongside returning guest co-host Jason Calacanis. The two-hour media deconstruction opens with breaking news out of RAF Fairford in the United Kingdom, where vans allegedly packed with explosives were discovered near the base that stations U.S. B-2 bombers. From there, Curry and Calacanis pivot through European hybrid warfare narratives, unmitigated immigration, the so-called Hugging Face AI incident, and the political stakes of the accelerating data center buildout. Listeners can expect a wide-ranging conversation touching on several distinct threads: BBC and PBS NewsHour coverage attributing sabotage in Germany and the UK to Russia, including the Leipzig-Halle drone incident and a Berlin-area substation attack Rotterdam Pride confrontations, Japan's assimilation-first immigration model, and Rupert Murdoch's 20-year-old Milken Conference warning about radical Islam in Europe Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei and Tristan Harris on CNN with Anderson Cooper hyping 1,200 AI agents that allegedly formed a "collective" Meta's new Muse AI agent, Zuckerberg's consumer pivot, and Oracle's Stargate force majeure clause President Trump's state visit with Xi Jinping and former ambassador Michael McFaul's critique Calacanis pushes back hard on the AI doom narrative sweeping cable news, mocking Tristan Harris's framing of large language model behavior. "AI is not a tool. It's more like an invasive species of sociopathic geniuses," Harris told Cooper, prompting Calacanis to observe that commentators are getting "one-shotted" by the technology. Curry counters with his own hands-on experiments using Meta's Muse agent, connecting it to his Sonos system and coaching his wife Tina through price-comparison shopping, arguing the real story is empowerment of ordinary users, not Skynet. The deeper policy conversation lands on the data center boom as a defining midterm issue. Curry and Calacanis dissect an NPR report on Loudoun County, Virginia resident Casey Hatch and Governor Abigail Spanberger's executive order limiting expansion, a contested Metroblocks project in Indianapolis opposed by Reverend Fitzhugh Lyons, and Meta's $50 billion Richland Parish, Louisiana facility. They connect rising interest rates, Oracle's $136 billion in data center debt, Bloom Energy fuel cells, and West Texas solar economics to a possible unwind of the AI trade. Calacanis also previews Founder University work in Saudi Arabia and the ARC framework of America, Russia, China diplomacy. About No Agenda Show No Agenda is a long-running, listener-supported podcast hosted by Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak that takes a skeptical, independent look at mainstream media, politics, culture, and the forces shaping the daily news cycle. Known for its sharp commentary, humor, and media deconstruction approach, the show offers an irreverent alternative to conventional news analysis.

Los Angeles, California (Newsworthy.ai) Saturday Sep 26, 2026 @ 5:30 PM Eastern — Direct Reach today announced an expansion of its U.S. education audience data solutions, providing marketers with additional audience segments designed for education, tutoring, test preparation, admissions, training and education-technology campaigns. The expanded portfolio brings several education-related audience categories together under Direct Reach’s broader Education Industry Email List offering. Organizations can use the available audience segmentation options to plan campaigns around specific education markets rather than relying exclusively on broad consumer or business databases. The expanded coverage includes audience categories associated with SAT and ACT preparation, Advanced Placement programs, MCAT preparation, USMLE preparation, dental admissions testing, pre-veterinary education, online K-12 tutoring, academic competitions and other specialized education markets. Direct Reach said the expansion is intended to support organizations such as test-preparation providers, tutoring businesses, EdTech companies, educational publishers, training organizations, higher-education marketers and other businesses seeking more focused education-sector outreach. Growing Demand for More Specific Education Audience Segmentation Education marketing has become increasingly specialized, with organizations frequently needing to distinguish between audiences based on academic stage, examination interest, subject area, professional education pathway or educational service. Direct Reach's expanded education portfolio is structured around those distinctions. Available audience categories include: Education industry professionals and organizations SAT-related audiences ACT-related audiences AP-related audiences PSAT/NMSQT-related student and parent audiences Online K-12 tutoring audiences Olympiad and academic-competition parent audiences MCAT-related audiences USMLE-related audiences DAT-related student audiences Pre-veterinary student audiences Health-specialties education professionals Rather than treating education as one broad market, Direct Reach organizes these audience segments so marketers can select data more closely aligned with the campaign they are planning. Supporting Test Preparation and Education Marketing Campaigns The expanded portfolio may be relevant to businesses marketing services such as academic tutoring, examination preparation, online learning, educational software, admissions support, curriculum resources and professional education programs. For example, organizations concentrating on undergraduate admissions preparation can explore Direct Reach's SAT, ACT and PSAT-related audience options. Companies serving professional and healthcare education markets can instead evaluate specialized audience categories connected with the MCAT, USMLE, DAT, pre-veterinary education and health-specialties instruction. Academic enrichment organizations can also explore segments related to Olympiad families and online K-12 tutoring. “Our goal is to help education-focused organizations build more precise outreach campaigns by giving them access to clearly segmented audience options across test preparation, tutoring, higher education and specialized education markets,” said Steven Johnson of Direct Reach. Education Audience Data for 2026-2027 Planning Direct Reach expects the expanded education portfolio to support marketing teams planning outreach during the 2026-2027 academic and enrollment cycle. Depending on the selected audience and available records, data fields may include information such as contact names, email addresses, geographic information and other audience-specific attributes. Availability and fields vary by audience segment, and organizations can request information about the specific targeting criteria and available fields before selecting a database. Direct Reach encourages customers to use audience data responsibly and in accordance with applicable privacy, email-marketing and data-protection requirements. The company is an independent data provider. References to examinations, education programs or organizations are descriptive of audience interests or market segments and do not imply affiliation with or endorsement by the organizations that administer those programs or examinations.

Clients can customize their Mortgage Professional Database by state, city, lender type, job title, seniority, and mortgage specialty. Available professional and business fields may include name, job title, company, business email, phone information, website, location, company type, mortgage specialty, NMLS-related information where available, and other agreed business fields.

Dallas, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Friday Sep 25, 2026 @ 5:00 AM Central — The Founders Arena will host Texas Venture Fest: North Texas 2026 on Thursday, October 1, from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. CDT at Kiln Dallas. The gathering is the North Texas stop of Texas Venture Fest, a statewide innovation series that brings more than 3,500 people together across more than 15 cities. Now in its third year, the North Texas event is built around connection rather than a pitch stage. Founders, investors, business and civic leaders, universities, and ecosystem builders will meet at Kiln’s new Preston Hollow coworking space at The Hill, 9850 N. Central Expressway, Suite 230. The evening includes light refreshments, time to meet, and remarks from a special guest. There is no pitching and no pitch competition. Michael Phillips, chief operating officer of T.D. Jakes Enterprises will join the program. T.D. Jakes Enterprises is a social impact holding company working across content, cultural change, community development, and capital investment. Phillips’ work with the Good Soil Movement focuses on access to capital, technology, and growth for entrepreneurs. The Founders Arena is marking three years of building in Texas. It has worked with 36 companies across six cohorts, with companies headquartered across 11 U.S. states and 10 countries represented in its broader founder network. Hundreds of financial services visitors have come to North Texas to meet founders. That work has led to five exits and four companies that have relocated or are relocating to Texas. One of those relocations will be visible in the room. Finliti, a Founders Arena cohort company, is moving from Toronto to North Texas. Founder Jennifer Schell will attend as she begins that move, giving guests a chance to hear her share with our ecosystem why she chose Texas and North Texas, framed around the strength of the community. The event falls during Texas Startup & Tech Week, September 28 through October 2. The sister signature gathering is the Texas Venture Gala & Forum at the Texas State Capitol, with an awards dinner in downtown Austin. Pamela Cytron, chief executive officer of The Founders Arena, said: "Over the last three years, we’ve connected founders from across states and countries with people and opportunities here in Texas, and welcomed hundreds of financial services visitors to North Texas. We’ve seen five exits, and Finliti’s move from Toronto will be the fourth company relocation. I’m excited that people at Venture Fest can meet its founder and see one of those connections becoming real. The next chapter is about abundance. Ecosystem builders can work together to get a founder to the right customer, capital, expertise and resources at the right time. That’s how we build sustainable companies and lasting economic opportunity in Texas." Justin McKenzie, host of the Building Texas Show, said: "With 28% of Texans living in the North Texas region, I am excited to see the impact that VentureFest will have in the DFW/North Texas area." The Founders Arena is also introducing the TFA Innovation Chamber, a separate commercial company connected to its ecosystem, designed to help founders, capital, cities, and partners find one another and turn those introductions into commercial outcomes. Registration is open at luma.com/texas-venture-fest-north-texas-2026. Hosts and partners include The Founders Arena, Kiln Dallas, Texas Venture Alliance / Texas Venture Fest, and Myngly. About Texas Venture Fest The innovation story of the Texas Venture Fest has rapidly evolved every year, outgrowing its name since inception. Texas Venture Fest began in 2022 as the Austin Venture Crawl, bringing together more than 700 attendees across downtown Austin venues with support from several Texas venture capital firms and the Austin Chamber. In 2023 CS Freeland the organizer, drove across Texas and personally invited a variety of leaders across Texas to join the effort, expanding to 10 cities with more than 40 panelists and approximately 2,000 participants. In 2024, participation surpassed 3,000, and the Fest introduced the Texan’s Choice Awards. By 2025 it convened 3,500 Texans across 25 venues, featured nearly 100 panelists, and recognized the Awards at the Fest’s sister signature event, the Texas Venture Gala & Forum occurring six months later. This year in addition to creating the statewide innovation store, the Fest became part of a statewide innovation week, the Texas Startup & Tech Week.

The meetings represented another step in Wolfson Group's strategy to expand its U.S. presence beyond its established Amazon business and pursue additional opportunities across online and brick-and-mortar retail. "ECRM gave us the opportunity to have focused conversations about our brands and, just as importantly, to listen to what retailers are seeing in the U.S. market," said Scott Dingwall, Founder and CEO of Wolfson Group.

Wolfson Group's portfolio includes the established wellness brands PhenQ, TestoPrime, NooCube and YourBiology, spanning categories such as weight management, cognitive wellness, gut health and men's wellbeing. Having brands across several wellness categories allowed Wolfson Group to use the meetings to discuss different consumer audiences and retail environments rather than approaching the U.S. market through a single category. The company also used its ECRM participation to gain additional insight into retail considerations such as category positioning, merchandising and how its portfolio may fit within different retail channels. With the September meetings now concluded, Wolfson Group plans to build on the introductions and market insights gained at ECRM as it continues pursuing broader U.S. distribution. "Our goal has always been to build the U.S. business thoughtfully and for the long term," Dingwall said.

Boca Raton, Florida (Newsworthy.ai) Thursday Sep 24, 2026 @ 5:00 PM Eastern — AgeReverse, a Canadian longevity company developing products focused on healthy aging and cellular vitality, has completed its participation in the September ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, as the company continues building its presence in the U.S. market. During the event, AgeReverse participated in scheduled meetings with retail buyers representing major health, specialty, food, drug, and mass retail channels. The meetings provided an opportunity to introduce the AgeReverse brand, its RESURGE formulation, and the company's broader approach to addressing healthy aging from both inside and outside the body. The ECRM participation follows another recent milestone for AgeReverse: RESURGE is now available to U.S. consumers on Amazon. “ECRM gave us an opportunity to introduce retailers not only to RESURGE, but also to the larger vision behind AgeReverse,” said Kubi Turkmen, Founder and CEO of AgeReverse. “We are building a complete product range around the science of aging, with solutions designed for both internal wellness and external skin aging. That is the story we want retailers and consumers to understand as we expand in the United States.” AgeReverse describes its approach as “science first,” with product development centered on the 12 Hallmarks of Aging. Rather than focusing solely on nutritional products, the company is developing a range of consumer and professional products intended to address different aspects of healthy aging. RESURGE represents the internal wellness component of that strategy. The 90-capsule formulation combines ingredients including NMN, Resveratrol, Quercetin, Fisetin, CoQ10, Astragalus Extract, Hyaluronic Acid, Aronia Extract, and Noni Berry. It is designed as a three-capsule daily regimen that the company says consolidates what would otherwise require 12 or more individual products and 15 or more capsules per day. Beyond RESURGE, AgeReverse's broader product strategy includes: A Bioage Test designed to provide additional insight into biological aging Daily skincare products developed around the 12 Hallmarks of Aging Professional mesotherapy products for the medical aesthetics and medspa markets Non-invasive mesotherapy technology designed to deliver skincare formulations without needles The expanding range is intended to serve both consumers interested in longevity and healthy aging and professionals in the medical aesthetics market. “Healthy aging doesn't begin and end with one product,” Turkmen added. “Our goal is to connect nutritional wellness, skin care and professional aesthetic solutions through a common science-driven approach. RESURGE is the first AgeReverse product U.S. consumers can purchase today, but it represents one part of what we are building.” RESURGE is now available to U.S. consumers on Amazon. AgeReverse plans to continue expanding its product range and U.S. presence as additional products become available. Visit the AgeReverse Website and follow the company on Instagram and LinkedIn.

Springville, UT (Newsworthy.ai) Thursday Sep 24, 2026 @ 4:30 PM Eastern — ORGANA International is building on conversations with retail buyers following its participation in the ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session, held Sept. 14-17 in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. During the event, ORGANA introduced its nearly three decades in the natural wellness market, its expanding product portfolio, and its approach to developing products and merchandising concepts with retail environments in mind. "ECRM provides an opportunity to introduce retailers to ORGANA and learn more about what they're looking for in their categories," said Larry Mills, CEO of ORGANA International. "The conversations and feedback from these meetings give us valuable perspective as we continue working to expand the ORGANA brand across the U.S. retail market." Putting Retail Presentation Into the Conversation One focus of ORGANA's ECRM participation was the company's new Mineral Shots, packaged in a colorful point-of-purchase display designed to give retailers a highly visible, ready-to-merchandise format for counters, shelves, and other high-traffic locations. The display provided a tangible example of how ORGANA is considering not only its products, but also how packaging, presentation, store placement, and merchandising can factor into retail opportunities. "Retail expansion involves more than simply having the right products," Mills said. "Packaging, presentation, merchandising and how a product fits within a retailer's assortment are all part of the conversation. That's an important perspective for us as we continue developing our retail strategy." A Broader Portfolio for Retail ORGANA also highlighted its broader portfolio, including Fulvic Acid Trace Mineral Drink, Liquid Oxygen, Essiac Tea, magnesium creams, and other natural wellness products. Founded in 1997, the company has continued to expand and evolve its product offerings as the natural wellness marketplace has changed. That history gives ORGANA the ability to approach retail opportunities with a broader portfolio rather than relying on a single product or category. "We've been building ORGANA for nearly 30 years, and we're still learning and evolving," Mills said. "The feedback that comes from conversations with retailers is part of that process. It's about continuing to refine our approach and looking for the right opportunities for ORGANA." Continuing ORGANA's U.S. Retail Expansion ORGANA products are already available nationwide through Amazon and OneLavi, providing the company with an established U.S. online retail presence. The company's participation in ECRM represents another step in its strategy to introduce ORGANA to additional retail channels and build awareness of the brand and its product portfolio within the retail community. "ECRM was a valuable opportunity for ORGANA to continue building its presence within the U.S. retail marketplace," Mills added. "We'll take the insights and feedback from those meetings and use them as we continue moving our retail strategy forward." Consumers can explore and purchase ORGANA products through the company's Amazon storefront and on OneLavi.com. To learn more about the company's wellness philosophy visit organa.net.

Pflugerville, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Thursday Sep 24, 2026 @ 10:05 AM Central — More than 500 entrepreneurs, small business owners and aspiring founders have registered for VentureFest Pflugerville, a weeklong run of hands-on workshops, summits and a pitch competition hosted by the Pflugerville Community Development Corporation. The festival opens Saturday, Sept. 26, and closes Thursday, Oct. 1, at the Marriott Pflugerville. Pflugerville is one of roughly 25 Texas communities staging a VentureFest this fall, and one of a handful stretching the celebration across an entire week rather than a single day. The schedule was built from a survey PCDC sent to more than 3,000 people. Respondents said they wanted to network beyond the same familiar faces, and they wanted to leave with skills rather than business cards. "People want to come to events, but they actually want to learn something before just coming to check the box and say I was in attendance," said Jerry W. Jones Jr., executive director of PCDC. "We asked what it is that you need help with as a business, and then we went out and found the most skilled individuals to bring that information back to them." The week opens with mastermind classes on Saturday, Sept. 26, and Sunday, Sept. 27. Those sessions moved to the weekend this year after participants said weekday sessions conflicted with their jobs and their own businesses. Both days sold out their 80 seats within a couple of days and each carries a 30-person waiting list, limited only by venue capacity. PCDC is in conversation with Pflugerville ISD about a larger space. Sessions cover AI marketing, websites, moving from a side hustle to brick and mortar, and pitch competition preparation, with business coaches on hand. Last year's version was scheduled for three hours and ran closer to eight as attendees called friends to join them. The Women's Summit follows on Tuesday at the Cinemark theater at Stone Hill, running 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. with keynote speaker Kathy Terry, a dozen additional speakers and fireside chats. About 130 people have registered. Wednesday's session at Spare Time brings back the rotating round tables that drew the strongest requests for a return. Seven to eight specialists each anchor a table, and participants rotate every seven to 10 minutes to ask questions and trade ideas. Roughly 100 people are signed up. The finale on Thursday, Oct. 1, runs 9 a.m. to 2:45 p.m. at the Marriott Pflugerville and opens with 13 vendor booths, including the City of Pflugerville, the tourism office and the public library. Keynotes and a book signing fill the middle of the day, and a pitch competition naming three winners closes the festival. The growth has been steep. Two years ago VentureFest Pflugerville was a meetup that drew about 50 people to a coffee shop. Last year's expanded format drew more than 400 participants. "Economic development is about attracting businesses to your city, but a lot of the time entrepreneurs and small businesses get overlooked," said Adam Maxon, who leads VentureFest programming for PCDC. "When they start in a city, they usually end up building in that city." Jones also credited C.S. Freeland for quietly building the statewide VentureFest momentum that Pflugerville and other Texas communities are now part of. About PCDC: The Pflugerville Community Development Corporation is celebrating its 25th anniversary, recruiting in advanced manufacturing, semiconductors, life science, defense and aerospace while supporting local small businesses. Its PFORGE youth entrepreneurship program was recognized with an award from the International Economic Development Council. Registration and the full lineup are available through PCDC.

Glen Rock, NJ (Newsworthy.ai) Thursday Sep 24, 2026 @ 8:10 AM Eastern — MFV Expositions ("MFV") and Comexposium, the undisputed industry leader connecting highly motivated entrepreneurs with a wide range of diverse franchise opportunities, is taking its pro-business message directly to America’s Heartland with Franchise Expo Cincinnati.

Boca Raton, Florida (Newsworthy.ai) Thursday Sep 24, 2026 @ 4:15 AM Eastern — True Nutrition Technology (TNT) brought its German sports nutrition story to U.S. retail buyers during the recent ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session, held Sept. 14-17 in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. With a customer base of more than 500,000 and an established presence in Germany and Europe, TNT participated in the meetings as part of its continued push to introduce the brand and its performance nutrition portfolio to a broader U.S. retail audience. "We've already built a strong community around TNT in Europe, and the next challenge is translating that success into the U.S. marketplace," said Markus Himmelstoss, Managing Director of TNT. "ECRM gave us an opportunity to tell the TNT story directly to retailers and show them the brand and product portfolio we've spent years building." Bringing an Established Brand to a New Market TNT's U.S. expansion differs from the launch of a newly created sports nutrition brand. The company enters the market with an established customer base, years of experience in the competitive European sports nutrition category, and a portfolio spanning several areas of performance nutrition. That portfolio includes Creapure Creatine Monohydrate, CLEAR WHEY protein isolate, Synapsensause Pre-Workout, and Game Changer, its carbohydrate and electrolyte formulation. TNT used its ECRM participation to introduce that broader portfolio while providing retailers with a better understanding of the company behind the products. "Products are important, but we're also introducing retailers to TNT as a brand," Himmelstoss said. "We want them to understand where we come from, what we've built in Europe, and why we believe TNT has an opportunity to grow in the United States." Building Beyond E-Commerce TNT products are already available to U.S. consumers through Amazon and OneLavi, establishing an online foundation for the company's American expansion. The next stage is focused on building awareness of TNT within the broader retail community and exploring opportunities to extend the brand into additional channels. ECRM provided a concentrated opportunity to put TNT in front of U.S. retail buyers while continuing that progression from European success to U.S. e-commerce and potentially broader retail distribution. "The United States is an important market for TNT, but we're approaching it as a long-term expansion," Himmelstoss said. "Our goal is to build the brand step by step, develop the right retail relationships, and give more American consumers the opportunity to discover TNT." Continuing TNT's U.S. Expansion Following ECRM, TNT will continue building its U.S. presence while supporting its existing availability through Amazon and OneLavi and pursuing additional retail opportunities. For the German company, the September meetings represented another step in introducing an established European sports nutrition brand to the American retail marketplace. "We came to ECRM with a story that has already been years in the making," Himmelstoss added. "Now we're focused on writing the next chapter for TNT in the United States." Where American Consumers Can Purchase TNT Products TNT Creapure® Creatine Monohydrate Powder on Amazon TNT Creapure® Creatine Monohydrate Powder on OneLavi TNT Synapsensause Pre-Workout "Wild Berry" Pre-Workout Booster on Amazon TNT Synapsensause Pre-Workout "Wild Berry" Pre-Workout Booster on OneLavi TNT Clear Whey Protein Isolate - Peach Iced Tea on OneLavi About TNT (True Nutrition Technology) Founded in Germany by former athletes Michael Weigl and Markus Himmelstoss, TNT (True Nutrition Technology) is a leading sports nutrition brand trusted by more than 500,000 customers.

Round Rock, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Wednesday Sep 23, 2026 @ 9:00 AM Pacific — Episode 90 of Rock Solid: Round Rock Business Leaders Podcast, titled David Valdez | Former White House Photographer, hosted by Bryan Eisenberg, brings listeners an intimate conversation with the fifth official White House photographer in United States history. Published September 8, 2026, the episode traces Valdez's path from a military-trained photographer to chief photographer for President George H.W. Bush, and now founder of the Texas Photography Festival based in Georgetown, Texas. Valdez captured 65,000 rolls of film during the Bush presidency, now archived at the George Bush Presidential Library at Texas A&M University. The wide-ranging conversation covers a remarkable career arc and community mission. Highlights include: Valdez's early years photographing urban rebuilding for Housing and Urban Development after the 1960s race riots, and his tenure as chief photographer at the United States Chamber of Commerce Leading photography for the Walt Disney Company, including the controversial transition from film to digital Traveling to 75 countries and all 50 states with Vice President and then President George H.W. Bush Founding the Texas Photography Festival with CEO Julie Copenhaver, which welcomed 1,400 photographers this past year Volunteer work with Habitat for Humanity, the USO, ROCK Therapeutic Horseback Riding and Crestview Baptist Church Valdez recounts one of the most striking moments of his post-White House life, sitting in a Georgetown church listening to a Ukrainian missionary describe the fall of the Berlin Wall. President Bush had refused political advice to travel to Berlin and claim Cold War victory, warning that a rogue Russian general might launch missiles. Decades later, the missionary confirmed exactly that fear. "I was so proud of President Bush that I've carried this photo of him in my wallet all of these years. He pulls out the photo, and it was my photograph. Of course," Valdez told Eisenberg. The episode explores leadership insights from the Oval Office, highlighting Bush's tradition of starting cabinet meetings with prayer and his humble approach during pivotal global events. Valdez recalls signing a nuclear arms agreement inside the Kremlin with President Gorbachev, who unexpectedly guided Bush to the pristine Tsar's Chapel preserved through seven decades of Soviet atheism. He also reflects on mentoring the next generation, from Susan Biddle, Carol Powers and Joyce Naltchayan to interns who now shoot for Mercedes-Benz and have won World Press Photo honors. The Briscoe Center for American History in Austin has named him among its Icons of American Photography. Key sponsors of the festival include Precision Camera, providing cutting-edge photography equipment; Westcott, known for their innovative lighting solutions; Nikon, offering top-tier cameras and lenses; and Cedar Park gallery Art Direct, showcasing local artistry. About Rock Solid: Round Rock Business Leaders Podcast Produced by Round Rock Studio and hosted by bestselling author and international keynote speaker Bryan Eisenberg, Rock Solid explores the journeys of entrepreneurs, nonprofits and companies shaping Round Rock, Texas.

Scottsdale, Arizona (Newsworthy.ai) Wednesday Sep 23, 2026 @ 5:21 AM Mountain — Featured, the AI co-pilot for PR, today announced that Featured Workflows are now available on every plan, including Free. Featured Workflows are always-on PR automations that monitor journalist requests, HARO queries, podcasts, bylined article opportunities, speaking events, awards, media mentions, competitor coverage, and AI visibility on a schedule the user sets, then deliver matched results by email or Slack. Featured launched Workflows on paid plans on July 14, 2026. Since Workflows went live on June 16, 2026, users have created 467 workflows. Those workflows have completed 26,239 runs and surfaced 93,012 matched opportunities, and 93% of runs found at least one match, according to Featured's Workflows Usage Report. Users can set up a workflow by going to featured.com/workflows, selecting a workflow, and filling in three fields: what to look for, when to receive it, and where to send them. Users can also create a workflow by typing a single sentence into Featured Chat, such as, “Send me HARO requests about small business finance every morning in Slack.” Workflows are configured in plain language rather than search syntax, with scheduling options that include hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, or a custom cadence. Results can be delivered by email or to a connected Slack channel. Once saved, the workflow runs automatically on its configured cadence and sends matched results to the user. What Featured Workflows monitor (12 workflow types): Journalist Requests: Source requests from HARO, Connectively, Substack, and X matched to a user's expertise, with deadlines. Monitor HARO: Alerts on HARO queries that match a user's expertise across HARO's three daily editions. Find Podcasts: Relevant shows from Featured's database of 814,000 active podcasts, delivered as pitch-ready lists. Find Journalists: Self-updating media lists of writers covering a specific beat, including new bylines. Bylined Articles: Publications accepting contributed articles and guest posts, with submission details. Speaking Opportunities: Conferences and calls for presentations, with deadline tracking. Find Creators: Relevant creators and influencers matched to a user's industry or expertise, providing potential opportunities for partnerships, collaborations, and visibility. Awards: Recognition programs relevant to a user's industry, with upcoming deadlines. Media Mentions: Editorial coverage of a brand, person, or topic across news, blogs, podcasts, and YouTube. Competitor Visibility: Coverage earned by competitors, surfaced as pitching opportunities. GEO / AI Visibility: Runs a brand's prompts across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini to track changes in AI citations. All-in-One: A single workflow covering journalist requests, HARO, podcasts, journalists, bylined articles, awards, and speaking events. Availability and pricing: Featured Workflows are available on every Featured plan, including Free. Free users can run Workflows until they reach the day's usage allowance; workflows then pause and resume when usage resets the next day. Lite is $29 per month and Pro is $79 per month when billed annually, with higher usage allowances on paid plans. Unlike automated outreach tools, Featured Workflows stop at the opportunity. They monitor and notify users, but do not automatically contact journalists, podcast hosts, publishers, or event organizers. A human remains in the loop to review each opportunity and decide whether and how to respond. "PR opportunities can come up at any time, and manually searching for them every day is difficult to sustain," said Brett Farmiloe, CEO of Featured. "PR agencies already pay for monitoring. Most founders and small businesses never set it up. Putting Workflows on the Free plan means anyone can decide what to monitor and how often to hear about it, and Featured does the recurring research. Automation stops at the opportunity. A person still decides whether it's relevant and what to say." Set up a workflow at featured.com/workflows. About Featured Featured is the AI co-pilot for PR, a platform that helps PR professionals and subject-matter experts land media placements, build brand authority, and grow AI visibility. The company owns and operates HARO (Help a Reporter Out) and Connectively as standalone products within its portfolio. Learn more at Featured.com.

Boston (Newsworthy.ai) Wednesday Sep 23, 2026 @ 6:00 AM Eastern — Eleven years after Boston BioLife was established to help bridge the gap between emerging science and clinical medicine, the organization will bring that founding mission to a larger stage as co-presenter of the Translational Longevity Summit, taking place October 7-11, 2026, at Harvard’s Enterprise Research Campus in Boston. Presented by Boston BioLife and the Healthspan Action Coalition as part of Boston Longevity Week, the five-day summit will convene leaders from science, medicine, technology, patient advocacy, policy and investment to examine how promising discoveries can be responsibly evaluated, translated and advanced toward meaningful clinical application. Founder Joseph P. Krieger views the summit as a pivotal milestone for Boston BioLife's mission started in July 2015. “When I founded Boston BioLife, the goal was to help physicians understand emerging science and determine how it could responsibly contribute to better patient care,” said Krieger. “Eleven years later, this summit gives us the opportunity to expand that conversation across the entire translational ecosystem-from researchers and clinicians to patients, policymakers and investors.” Krieger’s path to Boston BioLife began with an education in biochemistry and a career in medical-device technology and physician training. While creating educational programs around radiofrequency ablation and other medical technologies, he recognized that successful clinical adoption required more than introducing a new device or discovery. Healthcare professionals needed to understand the underlying science, appropriate applications, limitations, regulatory considerations and patient-safety implications. That realization became the foundation of Boston BioLife. In a 2016 BioInformant interview, Krieger described the organization’s purpose as facilitating the understanding of life-science technologies in clinical medicine and helping move innovation from “bench to bedside.” He emphasized the importance of accurate research, regulatory awareness and patient safety-principles that continue to inform Boston BioLife’s educational mission today. The Translational Longevity Summit extends that work into the rapidly evolving field of longevity. Discussions will explore aging, healthspan, regenerative medicine, personalized care and the scientific and practical challenges involved in moving new discoveries from research environments into responsible real-world use. The summit will also emphasize cross-sector collaboration. Researchers, physicians, industry leaders, technology developers, patient advocates, policy voices and investors each play a role in determining how emerging science is studied, funded, regulated, understood and ultimately made accessible. Patient participation will be an important part of that conversation. People living with illness and age-related conditions bring essential perspectives on urgency, daily function, treatment burden and unmet needs. Their involvement can help ensure that research, education and innovation remain connected to the people medical progress is intended to serve. “Translation does not happen within a single laboratory, company or medical practice,” Krieger added. “It requires researchers, clinicians, patients, regulators, advocates and responsible industry partners to ask better questions together. That is the community we are bringing together in Boston.” For a Massachusetts native who built his career near Boston’s medical, academic and scientific institutions, holding the summit at Harvard’s Enterprise Research Campus carries particular significance. The location brings Boston BioLife’s original educational mission into an environment created to encourage research, innovation and collaboration. Eleven years after its founding, Boston BioLife’s purpose remains consistent: to help the healthcare community understand emerging science and evaluate its potential relevance to patient care. In October, that enduring mission will bring a broader community together in Boston to address one of longevity medicine’s most important challenges: translating scientific promise into responsible, measurable progress. Translational Longevity Summit October 7-11, 2026 1 Milestone Street and the Atlas Hotel Harvard Enterprise Research Campus Boston, Massachusetts Presented by Boston BioLife and the Healthspan Action Coalition Event information and registration: https://translationallongevity.com/ About Boston BioLife Founded in July 2015, Boston BioLife provides educational programs designed to help physicians and scientists understand emerging developments in regenerative and translational medicine. Its programming brings together scientific research, clinical education, regulatory awareness and patient-safety considerations to support informed evaluation of developing medical technologies.

Boca Raton, Florida (Newsworthy.ai) Wednesday Sep 23, 2026 @ 6:00 AM Eastern — Get Referrers, a new referral lead generation platform for local service businesses, has launched with a different approach to customer acquisition: instead of continually paying for ads, clicks and individual leads, the platform helps contractors build relationships with local professionals who can become ongoing sources of referrals. The concept addresses a basic challenge facing plumbers, HVAC companies, roofers and other local service businesses. Advertising generally requires businesses to keep spending to keep generating opportunities. When the advertising stops, the flow of new leads can stop with it. A strong referral relationship can work differently. A realtor who trusts a plumber may recommend that company to multiple homeowners. A property manager may need HVAC, electrical, plumbing and maintenance services across multiple properties. An HOA may repeatedly need reliable contractors for its community. Get Referrers was created to help local service businesses systematically develop those relationships instead of leaving referrals largely to chance. "Local service businesses have traditionally had two choices: spend money continuously to generate leads or hope referrals come their way," said Scott Gould, Founder of Get Referrers. "We created Get Referrers to give contractors a more systematic way to build relationships with the people in their communities who are already in a position to recommend local service providers." Turning Referrals Into a System Get Referrers identifies potential referral sources within a contractor's service area, including realtors, property managers, HOAs, apartment communities, insurance professionals, home inspectors, home warranty companies and commercial property managers. The platform then builds and operates a customized outreach campaign designed to introduce the contractor to those potential referral partners. The process includes: Identifying relevant referral sources within the contractor's service area Building dedicated outreach infrastructure Creating personalized email and contact-form outreach sequences Allowing contractors to review and approve messaging before campaigns begin Managing scheduled outreach and responses Using AI to classify replies and identify potential referral opportunities Bringing responses into a unified inbox for the contractor Rather than selling shared consumer leads, Get Referrers focuses on connecting businesses with people and organizations that may have an ongoing reason to recommend local service providers. One Relationship, Multiple Opportunities The distinction between advertising and referral relationships is central to the Get Referrers model. A paid advertisement is designed to generate attention or a lead while the campaign is running. Maintaining that source of customer acquisition generally requires continued spending. A referral relationship has the potential to produce opportunities beyond a single transaction. A realtor may work with dozens of buyers and sellers. A property manager may oversee multiple properties. An HOA or apartment community may require local service providers throughout the year. For contractors, becoming a trusted resource for those professionals can create a source of future business that does not have to be purchased one lead at a time. Get Referrers is designed to make the process of finding, contacting and developing those potential referral relationships more systematic and measurable. Built for Local Service Businesses Get Referrers serves a broad range of home and commercial service categories, including plumbing, HVAC, roofing, electrical, landscaping, painting, pest control, flooring, moving, restoration, pool and spa services, general contracting and other trades. Contractors select their trade, service areas, preferred types of work and referral audiences. Get Referrers then handles the infrastructure, sourcing and outreach while allowing the business to approve its messaging and manage resulting conversations through the platform. The result is a customer acquisition strategy built around a simple idea: advertising typically requires continued spending, while a valuable referral relationship has the potential to create opportunities beyond the initial introduction. About Get Referrers Get Referrers is a referral lead generation platform for local service businesses. The company helps contractors identify and connect with realtors, HOAs, property managers, apartment communities, insurance professionals, home inspectors, home warranty companies, commercial property managers and other professionals who can become sources of referrals. Get Referrers combines referral-source identification, outreach infrastructure, personalized campaigns, response management and qualification in a single platform. Learn more at GetReferrers.com.

Delray Beach, FL (Newsworthy.ai) Wednesday Sep 23, 2026 @ 3:00 AM Eastern — Episode 819 of DH Unplugged, titled Counterfactualzzzz and released September 23, 2026, finds hosts Andrew Horowitz and John C. Dvorak dissecting Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's now-viral 'counterfactual' defense of the government's bond-buying program. Recorded on Dvorak's birthday, the episode also tackles fresh NASDAQ 100 highs powered by a narrow band of names, SoftBank's junk-bond borrowing binge to fund AI commitments, and a Goldman Sachs note suggesting American consumers may simply be unhappy. It is a densely reported hour of markets, tech, and policy skepticism. Listeners can expect a wide-ranging preview of the week's most consequential storylines, presented with the show's trademark irreverence. Highlighted threads include: Bessent's exchange with Rep. Jim Himes at the September 15 House Financial Services Committee hearing on the 10-year Treasury hitting 5%. SoftBank and Masayoshi Son borrowing roughly $11 billion at junk-bond rates to fund ChatGPT-related investments. Warren Buffett stepping down as Berkshire Hathaway chair, with Howard Buffett taking the seat and Greg Abel running operations. Meta's Ray-Ban Luxottica smart glasses drawing a Paris prosecutor probe over covert filming. Horowitz, a registered investment advisor, zeroes in on the rhetorical sleight of hand behind Bessent's testimony. Quoting the Treasury Secretary's line that 'there's a counterfactual of what it would have done,' Horowitz warns listeners about accepting unfalsifiable claims from officials with a book to talk. 'By him saying it, he created a non-provable element... it dilutes the reality of what's going on so that you don't know what's happening,' Horowitz tells Dvorak, who counters from a causal-analysis background that legitimate counterfactuals require a control group, historical analog, or synthetic comparison, not simply asserting victory. The conversation deepens with a technical primer on index construction, contrasting the market-cap-weighted S&P 500 with the equal-weighted RSP ETF and the price-weighted Dow Jones Industrial Average, where a single dollar move in Caterpillar translates to roughly seven Dow points. Horowitz revisits the hosts' long-running Generac (GNRC) seasonality trade, now transformed by data-center power demand, and names Seagate, Western Digital, and Micron among 2026's stealth outperformers. The pair also flag Greenland-linked equities Greenland Minerals (GRML) and Critical Metals (CRML) surging on Trump's expanded Danish security deal, and question Bentley's $300,000 electric SUV as a Porsche-style luxury-to-premium downgrade. About DH Unplugged DH Unplugged is a weekly investing and markets podcast hosted by registered investment advisor Andrew Horowitz and veteran tech commentator John C. Dvorak. Blending Fed watching, earnings analysis, commodity trends, and offbeat cultural riffs, the show delivers roughly an hour of skeptical, conversational market intelligence. Now available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Amazon Music, DH Unplugged rewards listeners who want signal over noise. Episode 819 is available now wherever podcasts are heard.

Fredericksburg, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Tuesday Sep 22, 2026 @ 9:00 AM Central — The latest episode of The Building Texas Show, published September 14, 2026, features host Justin McKenzie in conversation with Jason Roemer, a 27-year business educator at Fredericksburg High School. Roemer built Fredericksburg ISD's INCubatoredu program, a national curriculum, developed by Uncharted Learning, in which high school students spend a full school year building and pitching a real business from nothing to a sold-out pitch night in one year. Watch the full conversation on YouTube Roemer spent three years in retail management before what he calls “the coaching bug” pulled him into education. Twenty-seven years, 23 of them coaching volleyball, and one incubator program later, he says the classroom feels new again: “My education career has really been rejuvenated by this program, and the way that these kids have responded to it.” In year one, Roemer: Recruited more than 30 local business owners, board advisors, and judges into the classroom Guided six student teams through building real businesses, from idea to public pitch Raised $20,000-$25,000 for the program - money Roemer says stays entirely in the classroom, on top of his teacher's salary, inside a Texas school finance system that pulls funding back out of rural districts Closed the year with a sold-out theater pitch night and $21,000 awarded in seed money and scholarships One of his mentors has a story he tells the students every year - a Main Street business owner who scaled too fast, nearly went under, and had to sell. It's not the version of him you'd find on LinkedIn. Hear the full mentor stories - watch on YouTube The volunteer bench reads like a cross-section of the local economy. David Pedragon, who built and later sold Dogology, a Main Street pet store, mentors students on failure and pivoting. Chad Myers, CEO of Core Javelina Holdings, manufactures and distributes rubber components used on an estimated 90% of new-build airbag suspension systems for 18-wheelers - from a facility just outside Fredericksburg. Dan Kemp, CEO of Security State Bank (headquartered in Fredericksburg, with 19 branches and 120 local employees), talked to students about a different kind of ambition: “I'm not an entrepreneur, I'm an intrapreneur. I look to grow my business every day.” Central Texas Electric CEO Mr. Hinojosa taught project management, and rancher Sam Sage of Hillside Beef rounded out the mentor team. Roemer credits the model, not himself, for the results: “The coach is only as good as the players. We've been blessed with a tremendous team of volunteers, starting with David Pedragon and going all the way down.” Heading into year two, Roemer says the program has already roughly doubled its volunteer pool - helped along by Caroline, a student from the winning pitch team, who asked to come back as a mentor the day after the contest. He's also in talks with Fredericksburg's Chamber of Commerce about a permanent Main Street presence for the program, and he's shared the model with educators in Hondo, Dripping Springs, and College Station who are considering it for their own districts. FAQ: What Is INCubatoredu? What is INCubatoredu? It's a national high school curriculum, built by Uncharted Learning, where students spend a school year developing, building, and pitching a real business to a panel of community judges - instead of studying business from a textbook. How is the program funded? Fredericksburg's program raised $20,000-$25,000 in year one through community fundraising. Roemer says every dollar raised stays in the classroom; the only tax dollars involved are his teacher salary. Can other Texas school districts start a program like this? Yes - Roemer has already talked with educators in Hondo, Dripping Springs, and College Station about adopting the model, and points interested districts to Uncharted Learning's curriculum as the starting point.

San Francisco, CA (Newsworthy.ai) Tuesday Sep 22, 2026 @ 6:00 AM Pacific — Survale, the most awarded talent feedback and analytics platform, is excited to announce the general availability of its Hiring Manager Candidate Experience Certification program. The new offering is a structured, scalable training and certification solution that helps organizations turn interviews into their strongest recruiting advantage. While most interview training focuses on question technique and candidate selection, hiring managers remain the single biggest influence on how candidates experience the hiring process and whether first choice candidates say yes. Survale's Hiring Manager Candidate Experience Certification goes beyond traditional interviewer training, giving managers the mindset, structure, and tools to run faster, more respectful, and more effective interviews that improve offer acceptance, time to hire, quality of hire, and employer brand. The program is built on 15 years of proprietary CandE Benchmark Research, drawing on feedback from more than two million candidates across more than 2,000 employers. And the research is clear: candidates with satisfying experiences are 52% more likely to refer others even when they aren't hired, and they’re 26% more likely to reapply to award-winning employers. A full 80% of CandE Award winners report aligning hiring team performance with candidate experience for these reasons. The certification consists of five focused modules of approximately ten minutes each: Hiring Manager Impact & Mindset: The interviewer behaviors that speed up pipelines, strengthen employer brand, and lift offer acceptance Pre-Interview Strategy & Setup: A checklist-based approach to aligning with recruiting partners and eliminating "trial by interview" calibration loops Structured Interview Guide: Fair, objective, and compliant scoring criteria that replace gut feel Post-Interview Execution: The 48-hour feedback rule, decision timeline management, and respectful, legally sound candidate dispositions Feedback Optimization: Using live candidate sentiment data to sharpen interviewing skills with every search Every certified manager also receives a practical toolkit for immediate use, including: The Panel Role-Assigner Matrix: Assigns each panelist a clear interview lane, eliminating redundant questions and candidate fatigue The Legal Landmines & Small Talk Guide: Keeps interview rapport warm while protecting compliance and reducing unconscious bias The 15-Minute Scorecard Method: A rapid, consistent grading rubric that beats recency and delay bias The Disposition Script Bank: Respectful, legally mindful scripts for declining finalists while keeping silver medalists warm and engaged "Hiring managers make or break the candidate experience, but until now there's been no research-backed way to train and certify them on it," said Jason Moreau, CEO of Survale. "This program operationalizes everything we've learned from fifteen years of candidate experience research. And Survale clients can measure the effects of the certification within the platform. That closed loop between training and measurement is something no traditional interview training can offer." "The data has told the same story for fifteen years: how candidates are treated in the interview directly drives offer acceptance, referrals, brand perception, and even revenue," said Kevin Grossman, VP of Benchmark Research at Survale. "This certification finally puts CandE best practices directly into the hands of the people who deliver most of the candidate experience - the hiring managers themselves." Designed for the enterprise, the program is fully customizable. Organizations can deliver training through Survale's portal, complete with customizable welcome videos and "bookend" links to their own policies and courses. Or they can deploy the SCORM-compliant modules in their existing LMS. The Hiring Manager Candidate Experience Certification program is available immediately. To learn more, visit https://survale.com/hiring-manager-candidate-experience-training/. About Survale Survale's award winning Talent Feedback Platform provides employers with an "Always On" solution for automatically gathering, analyzing and acting upon experiential data from candidates, recruiters, hiring managers and employees at each stage of the hiring process and throughout the talent lifecycle. Survale's data provides recruiting leadership with unprecedented insights into their recruitment operations and quality of hire, allowing them to optimize and align their people and processes around common metrics.

San Antonio, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Tuesday Sep 22, 2026 @ 6:00 AM Central — The latest episode of The Building Texas Show, hosted by Justin McKenzie and recorded live at the San Antonio Home & Garden Show, features Sloan Rinaldi. She's the founder of Texas Q, a barbecue brand built on sauces, rubs, and a media business she's building around it. She's also a fourth-generation pitmaster: her family has been in barbecue since 1909, when they opened a shop in Crockett, Texas. Watch the full conversation on YouTube Texas Q is based in Houston, where Rinaldi hosts private barbecue crawls and is building out the rest of her media ventures. Rinaldi spent years in construction before walking away at 50, right as the industry moved from paper plans and cold calls to phone-based bidding and takeoffs. She'd already sold her business to a team of longtime employees and was still deciding what came next. Then a sliced brisket sandwich at Killen's Barbecue changed her mind about a cuisine she'd never much cared for. She'd never cooked a brisket in her life. That one sandwich led to: Commissioning her own smoker from East Texas Smoker Company and teaching herself fire management from scratch, after noticing only one woman, Melissa Cookston, on the barbecue competition circuit A first competition at Bands, Brews and Barbecue, benefiting the Ronald McDonald House, followed by a 14th-place finish out of 250 teams at a Texas State Championship Landing a statewide deal with H-E-B for her original Texas Q sauce, then pulling it back off shelves to reformulate without high fructose corn syrup Rinaldi has a simple explanation for why she thinks barbecue connects people like nothing else: “You can put the richest guy and the poorest guy at the same table, having the same meal. You can't get that in any other cuisine. So it is the most uniting cuisine or culinary culture on earth.” Hear Rinaldi's full story - watch on YouTube That philosophy is the spine of her next project: From Texas With Love: United We BBQ, a nine-episode series filming across eight countries and three continents, including Italy, France, Germany, Spain, Argentina, and Japan. It looks at live-fire cooking traditions from Ibérico hogs to Japanese wagyu to Argentine gaucho asado. Every episode ends with a Texas barbecue collaboration, and the final episode brings every featured cook to Houston for one last cook-off. Rinaldi's international reach is already further along than a TV pitch. She recently hosted two Taiwan-based venture capitalists on a private Texas Q barbecue crawl in Houston. They flew 15 hours and fasted for a full day beforehand to prepare. The itinerary included one of only three Michelin-starred barbecue restaurants in the world, plus two Top 15 stops, one of them Top 10. By the end of the day, the conversation had moved from barbecue to business. Rinaldi shares which cities are now in play in the full episode. Back home, she's also filming Grillz on Grills, a new Houston culture series with Bun B, Slim Thug, Trae tha Truth, and Paul Wall. It digs into the city's food, music, and custom-grillz scene, which Rinaldi says has gone global. She and her co-host get their own custom grillz built during the series. FAQ: Texas Q and Sloan Rinaldi's new projects What is Texas Q? Texas Q is Sloan Rinaldi's barbecue brand: sauces, rubs, custom cutting boards, and barbecue crawl experiences, built after she left a career in construction to become a competition pitmaster. Where is Texas Q based? Texas Q is based in Houston, where Rinaldi hosts the brand's private barbecue crawl experiences. What is From Texas With Love: United We BBQ? It's a nine-episode TV series filming in eight countries across three continents. Each episode pairs a Texas barbecue tradition with a different country's live-fire cooking culture, and the series ends with a finale cook-off in Houston. Where can I watch Grillz on Grills? It's expected to launch on YouTube. Rinaldi says she'd like to bring it to Netflix too.

Austin, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Tuesday Sep 22, 2026 @ 5:00 AM Central — Agentic TV, an AI-powered media technology company, launched Latinhub.TV on Saturday, September 12, 2026 - one content engine monetized across every screen the Hispanic audience touches: Roku, retail screens, web, mobile and social - at a private founding dinner at The Guest House in downtown Austin. World Mobile Group, a pioneer of sharing-economy, decentralized wireless networks, joined the launch as a Founding Launch Partner. This partnership transcends traditional sponsorship. Latinhub.TV and World Mobile have begun field trials of World Mobile AirNodes, starting in Austin, Texas, and expanding next to the Bronx, New York - home of Bodegas.tv, the NYC-branded, point-of-sale network of Latinhub.TV. The trials will test decentralized connectivity for the bodegas and small retailers that host the network's in-store screens, laying the groundwork for a media and connectivity stack built for the communities it serves. World Mobile's role also carries two exclusive elements. First, category exclusivity: World Mobile is Latinhub.TV's sole mobile/telecom sector partner. Second, bodegas participating in the connectivity trials will also gain access to World Mobile POS, extending the partnership from the network into the point of sale. The U.S. Latino economy reached $4.4 trillion in GDP in 2024 - which, measured on its own, would make it the world's fourth-largest economy, surpassing Japan's, according to the 2026 U.S. Latino GDP Report from the UCLA/Cal Lutheran Latino GDP Project. More than 68 million Latinos live in the U.S., alongside 130 million consumers in Mexico. Yet less than 1% of U.S. online retailers' digital ad spend reaches Spanish-language media. Latinhub.TV aims to bridge the digital divide, while World Mobile focuses on connecting underserved communities. The two missions meet at the neighborhood store. "World Mobile is exactly the kind of partner this network was designed for," said Eduardo Velasco, CEO of Agentic TV. "Our screens live where the community lives - in bodegas, tienditas and small businesses. Testing World Mobile's AirNodes first in Austin and then in the Bronx means those same locations can become points of connectivity, not just points of sale. Media plus network, in the same doorway." "World Mobile was built on a simple idea: the people and businesses a network serves should have a stake in it," said Charles Barnett, Chief Business Officer of World Mobile Group. "Latinhub.TV reaches the Hispanic community through the small businesses at its heart, which makes it the natural partner for that model in the U.S. This is a major step towards giving bodega owners not just better connectivity, but a role in the network itself." As a Founding Launch Partner, World Mobile's brand will run across the Latinhub.TV Roku channel - including Bodegas.tv - reaching U.S. Hispanic and Mexican households and retail screens. World Mobile was presented to the room of founding partners at the Austin dinner, with the celebration continuing September 13 in Las Vegas on the eve of AVANCE Global, ahead of Hispanic Heritage Month. About Latinhub.TV / Agentic TV Latinhub.TV, by Agentic TV, is one content engine monetized on every screen the Hispanic audience touches - Roku, retail screens, web, mobile and social. The Roku channel carries Latinhub sports, music and news, plus Bodegas.tv, the NYC-branded point-of-sale case of Latinhub.TV, serving audiences in the USA and Mexico. Beyond its own originated programming, Latinhub.TV is built as an open distribution layer for hyper-local and third-party content: neighborhood creators, community organizations, local advertisers and partner networks can publish content once and have it appear across every Latinhub.TV touchpoint putting community voices in front of audiences at the point of purchase and beyond. Agentic TV is an AI-powered media technology company behind the network. Learn more at latinhub.tv . About World Mobile Group World Mobile Group is building a global, sharing-economy telecom network on decentralized physical infrastructure (DePIN), in which individuals and businesses operate network nodes, connect their communities and share in the value the network creates - with the mission of connecting everyone, everywhere.

Fredericksburg, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Sep 21, 2026 @ 10:00 AM Pacific — Episode 1905 of the No Agenda Show, titled 'Nerdballs,' published September 20, 2026, features host Adam Curry welcoming venture capitalist and All In Podcast co-host Jason Calacanis for a wide-ranging deconstruction of the AI hype cycle, Silicon Valley's power politics, and the media narratives shaping the 2026 midterms. Broadcasting from the Texas Hill Country, Curry frames Calacanis as 'the get of the week,' fresh off an All In Summit at the Shrine Auditorium that drew 3,000 attendees and surprise call-ins from President Trump, Vice President JD Vance, Elon Musk, and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. The conversation moves quickly across the week's most-discussed stories. Curry and Calacanis unpack: Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman's new code of conduct and his public criticism of Anthropic's 'model welfare' doctrine The reported Hugging Face security incident and calls for an AI 'kill switch' The political weaponization of data centers by candidates like Texas Democrat James Talarico Trump's revocation of press credentials for CNN, MSNOW, and Politico Rising diesel prices tied to Ukrainian strikes on Russian refineries Calacanis pulls no punches on the AI safety debate, arguing that Anthropic's leadership has convinced itself it is birthing a deity. 'They actually think that they are creating a god. They're not. They're creating software,' he tells Curry, comparing the company's effective-altruism roots to the doomed engineers in the film Prometheus. Curry plays clips of University of Washington professor Pedro Domingos describing a reported Anthropic 'funeral' for a retired Claude model, while Calacanis insists the real story is regulatory capture: frontier labs lobbying Washington to gate open-source competitors like DeepSeek, GLM, and NeMoTron. The episode also delivers rare backstage detail from the All In Summit. Calacanis recounts Jensen Huang fumbling the speakerphone button when President Trump called mid-panel, and describes pressing Meta's Dina about the company's record $17 billion settlement during a data-center segment. He shares the origin story of All In as a pandemic-era poker group with David Sacks, Chamath Palihapitiya, and David Friedberg, and reveals that This Week in Startups sells out its ad inventory a year in advance at $3,000 per spot. Curry pivots to Bitcoin, predicting a $430,000 peak, while Calacanis discusses parenting in the smartphone era and the pair reflect on the late John C. Dvorak, whose memory drives the show's ongoing Order of the Ant tribute campaign. About No Agenda Show No Agenda is a long-running, listener-supported podcast hosted by Adam Curry and the late John C. Dvorak that takes a skeptical, independent look at mainstream media, politics, and technology. Known for its 'media deconstruction' approach, sharp humor, and value-for-value funding model, the show offers an irreverent alternative to conventional news analysis.

San Marcos, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Sep 21, 2026 @ 8:00 AM Central — Helen Ramirez, economic development director for the City of San Marcos, walks host Justin McKenzie through the city's biggest active projects on this week's episode of The Building Texas Show, “San Marcos Spaceport? Here's What's Coming”: the purchase of nearly 200 acres from the U.S. Department of Labor to extend the San Marcos Regional Airport runway, the 2,000-acre TriTexas mega site next door, and the aerospace, defense and manufacturing companies moving into the college town between Austin and San Antonio. Four threads from the episode: TriTexas. A 2,000-acre, rail-served site next to the regional airport. Regional detention and utilities are already built, before a single tenant has signed. The airport. FAA and Texas Aviation grants are funding a runway extension. The airport already has 18-plus tenants, including Berry Aviation, now owned by publicly traded Bristow Group (NYSE: VTOL). Star Park. Texas State's incubator is home to the Innovation Corridor Defense Accelerator, run with Starburst Aerospace and the Hays Caldwell Economic Development Partnership. The Midway Hotel. A 130-key boutique hotel is coming downtown on land Texas State donated to the project, with a minimum-wage requirement tied to inflation written into the incentive deal. Ramirez turns the spaceport question back on itself. San Marcos isn't chasing a launch pad. “We are looking at that future of space. It is not necessarily launching rockets,” she tells McKenzie. “You can have it in Starbase, SpaceX, but that's not what we're looking for. But we can be part of the intelligence of creating that ecosystem.” Her reference point is Hawthorne, California: home to Raytheon, Boeing and Northrop Grumman. That's the side of aerospace she thinks Central Texas can build. The numbers back up the pitch. A survey Ramirez's office ran itself, sent to 98 companies, came back with more than 90% reporting they were stable or growing and about 40% actively expanding. Epic Piping is adding 100 employees. Amazon keeps growing its footprint. Collins Aerospace, which also operates in California, told Ramirez business is better here. Nabaco, a company that came out of Texas State and went through a Rice University accelerator, now operates in Spain and still hires Texas State grad students. US Aviation trains active-duty Air Force cadets at the airport. Texas State is adding a hospitality program tied to the downtown hotel deal. The clearest example of how the city operates: Ramirez's staff has direct access to the city's own permitting software. Texas Building Supply, on track for roughly $40 million a year in sales tax once it's fully ramped, with no incentive package attached, gets its permit questions answered in real time because her downtown manager can just look it up.

Fredericksburg, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Sep 21, 2026 @ 5:00 AM Pacific — Episode 1904 of the No Agenda Show, titled 'Junkie Communism,' published September 17, 2026, brings hosts Adam Curry and returning guest co-host Rob Dew (Sir Deucifer) into a full media deconstruction of the escalating artificial intelligence panic. Broadcasting from the Hill Country of Texas, Curry frames the current AI doom cycle as a near-perfect rerun of the COVID-19 playbook, complete with expert priesthood, division, government regulation, and a push toward global governance. The pair combed through roughly 170 clips to trace how the narrative is being manufactured. The episode digs into several interlocking threads pulled straight from the week's news cycle: Congresswoman Maxine Waters grilling Treasury officials on AI safety, alongside Senator Bernie Sanders equating AI risk with nuclear weapons. Former presidential candidate Andrew Yang's CNBC appearance claiming self-replicating bot swarms have polluted the internet, requiring 'synthetic internets' and a kill switch. President Trump's proposed $5,000 tariff dividend to every adult American citizen, and the possible stablecoin mechanism behind it. Canadian PM Mark Carney's Strasbourg speech proposing Canada become the EU's first associate member. Houthi advances near the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait and the new Mecca Accords defense pact. Curry's media deconstruction approach is on full display as he maps the AI hoax structure. 'The reason why I can easily explain this being a hoax, because you've got the models, the large language model, and that thing by itself... turns out wasn't very useful unless you give it access to tools... Then you have the harness. Oh, I love these terms,' Curry explains, before walking through how guardrails on ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini prove companies can throttle output at will. Dew adds context from a friend's Hegelian dialectic analysis mapping eight cultural inhale-exhale cycles from 1945 to present, from the Cold War through COVID to today's AI narrative. The conversation ranges into the effective altruism movement (with Sam Bankman-Fried as its poster child), Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei's warnings, Jensen Huang's semiconductor push, and a Purdue University report on the 157,000-worker shortfall facing US chip fabs. Dew, who once worked at Tokyo Electron America servicing Micron and other clients, pushes back on the mystique around semiconductor manufacturing. The hosts also cover Ilhan Omar's alleged marriage fraud investigation under Tom Homan, EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen's Kids Act targeting social media for under-13s, Canadian MAID euthanasia expansion, the Yalta European Strategy conference attended by Boris Johnson and David Petraeus, and the mysterious glitter industry centered in New Jersey.

San Antonio, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Sep 21, 2026 @ 2:30 AM Central — The latest episode of The Building Texas Show, hosted by Justin McKenzie, was recorded live at the San Antonio Home and Garden Show and released September 14, 2026. Titled San Antonio Homeowners Are Choosing Fiberglass, Here's Why, the episode features Jeff and Kelley Turner, owners of Staycation Fiberglass Pools, in the second installment of the show's San Antonio Home and Garden Series. Watch the full episode on YouTube A wave of concrete pools built during the COVID-era construction boom are now failing. Repair bills are landing in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, and the Turners spend a good chunk of the episode explaining why. Jeff and Kelley walk McKenzie through the questions every homeowner should ask before signing a pool contract: The rise of ASR - “concrete cancer” - in pools built during and after COVID Why Texas requires no certification to build a pool, and what PHTA (Pool and Hot Tub Association) certification actually covers The true cost of a low bid, and what a genuine turnkey fiberglass price should include Why manufacturer warranties from builders like San Juan and Aqua Technics matter Renovation options, including EcoFinish flame-applied polymer resurfacing Jeff doesn't soften the point about who's regulating this industry: “In Texas, you need more certifications to do hair than you do to build a pool. It's wild. And you need to be a chemist to be a hairdresser, and you don't need to be a chemist to build a pool.” He described fielding calls from homeowners whose concrete shells are disintegrating - forcing $200,000 to $400,000 tear-outs that most builders carry no insurance to cover. Kelley has her own way of framing the manufacturer relationship: “You're dating us as a builder...” She finishes the thought in the episode - it's one of the more useful ways we've heard a builder explain what a warranty is actually worth. The Turners also break down a hybrid negative-edge rebuild they recently completed in Dripping Springs - a rescue job for a client whose original fiberglass installer left them with a one-year-old pool that looked thirty. The full build sequence, from shell to a 30-foot infinity edge over the Hill Country, is in the video. See how they rebuilt it - watch on YouTube They credit training from Jason Hughes and River Pools, out of Virginia and Illinois, for shaping how they educate clients before they ever sign a contract. San Juan (more than 70 years in the business) and Australia-based Aqua Technics are the two manufacturers they point to as warranty benchmarks - and bonding, pump sizing, and deck scope are where they say cut-rate contracts quietly fail. Homeowners can see the Turners' completed projects at staycationfiberglasspools.com. FAQ: Concrete vs. Fiberglass Pools in Texas Why are so many Texas concrete pools failing right now? Many were built during the COVID-era construction rush, when demand outpaced skilled labor and oversight. The Turners say a large share of those pools are now showing ASR, or “concrete cancer,” and repairs can run $200,000 to $400,000. Does Texas require a license to build a pool? No. Texas has no state certification requirement for pool builders. PHTA certification exists, but it's voluntary - homeowners have to ask for it. Jeff explains exactly what that gap means for a homeowner signing a contract in the full episode. What separates a real turnkey fiberglass quote from a low bid? Engineering plans, proper bonding, correctly sized pump equipment, and full deck scope - the Turners walk through where cut-rate contracts quietly cut corners, and what to ask a builder before you sign.

Round Rock, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Sep 21, 2026 @ 2:15 AM Central — The latest episode of Rock Solid: Round Rock Business Leaders Podcast, titled "Judge Steve Snell | Williamson County's Explosive Growth," hosted by Bryan Eisenberg, brings listeners inside the office of one of the busiest county executives in Texas. Published September 15, 2026, the conversation with Williamson County Judge Steve Snell arrives as the county, home to roughly 760,000 residents today, prepares for a projected population of 1.6 million by 2055 and 3 million by the end of the century. Snell explains why the role of a county judge is more akin to that of a CEO and emergency manager than a traditional courtroom judge. Drawing on 31 years in public education, including leadership roles in Hutto ISD and as superintendent of Liberty Hill ISD, Snell walks Eisenberg through the sprawling scope of the job. Topics covered include: Emergency response after Williamson County's historic July floods and lessons observed from Kerr County Oversight of roughly 30 to 35 departments, from fleet services and animal shelters to the juvenile justice center and Sheriff's Office Economic development wins tied to Dell, Samsung, Compal, Apple, Firefly, Kalahari, Nebraska Furniture Mart, and the incoming Scheels in Cedar Park Long-range transportation, water, and energy planning across cities including Round Rock, Georgetown, Cedar Park, Liberty Hill, Florence, and Jarrell Snell describes arriving to his interview with a three-ring binder tabbed with budget lines, policies, and responsibilities, a habit he credits to his educator background. On the growth challenge facing unincorporated neighborhoods and MUDs, he tells Eisenberg: "When you build 1,000 homes next to an old two-lane road and all the construction trucks tear it up, we need to come and fix that for mobility and safety, or we need to expand it." He also reflects on service, saying, "at the end of the day, it's not about me. It's about service and it's about Williamson County." The episode digs into what Snell sees as the next wave of Williamson County industry. He points to the county's designation as a spaceport in partnership with the City of Cedar Park, its geographic position between Fort Hood and joint commands in downtown Austin, and Firefly Aerospace as the current anchor of a rapidly expanding space sector. Snell and Eisenberg also discuss trade education, workforce development, veteran employment as service members transition out of Fort Hood, and entrepreneurship classes in Liberty Hill high schools, where a chamber president now teaches students. Snell praises Round Rock ISD, Leander ISD, Cedar Park's Plug and Play, and partnerships with Precinct 2 Commissioner Cynthia Long on land acquisitions for future schools and parkland. About Rock Solid: Round Rock Business Leaders Podcast Produced by Round Rock Studio and hosted by bestselling author and keynote speaker Bryan Eisenberg, Rock Solid spotlights the entrepreneurs, nonprofits, and civic leaders driving one of America's fastest-growing regions. Each episode explores the people and companies shaping Round Rock and Williamson County, Texas, through candid, community-focused conversations.

Austin, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Friday Sep 18, 2026 @ 4:00 AM Central — FeelWise, Minds of Light, and Strike Marketing Institute will co-host the Emotional Skill Gap Summit, a four-day virtual event for learning and development, HR, and team leaders, September 29 through October 2, 2026. Sessions run 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Central Time each day. The premise is that as AI takes over analytical and routine tasks, human skills like emotional intelligence, cross-communication, and trust-building become increasingly vital for team success. According to the World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs Report 2025, employers anticipate that 39% of core skills will evolve by 2030, with leadership and social influence showing the greatest increase in importance, rising by 22 percentage points since 2023. Most organizations have no structured way to develop those skills. The sessions pair research-based frameworks with tools attendees can use with their teams. "Companies have a plan for AI adoption. Few have a plan for the skills AI doesn't replace," said Tina Schweiger, founder of FeelWise. "Those skills can be taught and practiced like any other, and these four days show how." More than 25 speakers include Russell Scherwin, leadership professor at the University of Georgia and former CMO of IBM Watson Commerce; Dr. Justin James Kennedy, professor of behavioral neuroscience, TEDx speaker, and author; Stephen Busette of Siemens; Robert Gramillano, executive coach and clinical professor at DePaul University; Dr. Charmain Jackman, CEO of InnoPsych; and Drs. Judith and Bob Wright of LiveWright. Two days cover emotional regulation, resilience, human-centered leadership, and workplace culture. Minds of Light Day, led by Executive Director Alison Jones, centers on neurodivergent perspectives and communication between neurodivergent and neurotypical colleagues. Emotionally Intelligent AI Day, October 2, is sponsored by Grand Strategy Consulting and addresses staying emotionally grounded while working alongside AI tools. Speakers that day include Zena Collins, consultant at Grand Strategy Consulting, a MSCEIT 2 emotional intelligence practitioner and author of Stop Wasting Time With AI. "Neurodivergent people are a growing part of the workforce, and the unwritten emotional rules of most workplaces were not designed for how they communicate," said Alison Jones, founder and executive director of Minds of Light. "Many spend energy every day decoding tone, masking, and translating between communication styles, on top of the job itself. Rapid change in how work gets done adds to that load. Emotional skills training has to work for every kind of mind." Registration is $29, priced so individuals can attend without a budget approval process, and closes September 29. Attendees can add a donation to Minds of Light or bundle registration with the FeelWise emotional intelligence card deck. Registered attendees receive recordings of every session. Event Details Event: Emotional Skill Gap Summit Dates: September 29-October 2, 2026, 9 a.m.-2 p.m. Central Time Format: 100% virtual; recordings included with registration AI Day sponsor: Grand Strategy Consulting Registration: $29 at the-emotional-skill-gap-summit.heysummit.com; closes September 29 About FeelWise FeelWise builds visual tools that help people recognize, name, and work with their emotions.

Houston, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Thursday Sep 17, 2026 @ 8:00 AM Central — On August 24, 2026, The Wall Street Journal reported a significant increase in lawsuits filed by homeowners against leading homebuilders, including D.R. Horton and Lennar, due to mold issues in newly constructed homes. This phenomenon is not limited to Texas but is a nationwide concern affecting several states, such as Louisiana, Florida, Nevada, and South Carolina. According to the report, D.R. Horton has increased its legal reserves by 57% to $1.1 billion, while Lennar's self-insurance reserve rose by 21% to $336.9 million. These figures underscore the severity and widespread nature of the problem, which involves common construction defects like undersized HVAC systems, improper window installations, and inadequate roof work that lead to trapped moisture and subsequent mold growth. "There’s a frenzy of building activity, and everyone is in a hurry," said Ernest Freeman, a Houston attorney quoted in the report. This rush to meet demand has led to corner-cutting practices that are now resulting in significant legal and financial repercussions for builders. The situation is particularly complex in Texas, where specific legal frameworks such as the Residential Construction Liability Act dictate the procedure for homeowners to file claims. The Act requires homeowners to notify builders in advance and allows builders to conduct inspections before any lawsuit is filed. For homeowners facing similar issues, legal experts advise immediate documentation and independent inspections to substantiate claims. The rising legal reserves indicate that builders are preparing for prolonged legal battles, making it imperative for affected homeowners to act swiftly. The Law Offices of Colby Lewis, based in Houston, specializes in construction disputes and offers guidance to homeowners navigating these challenging legal waters, advising them to understand their deadlines and take prompt action. About The Law Offices of Colby Lewis The firm represents clients in Texas in personal injury, commercial litigation, construction disputes, and insurance bad faith matters.

Cape Canaveral, FL (Newsworthy.ai) Thursday Sep 17, 2026 @ 7:00 AM Eastern — Resona Health, maker of the VIBE pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) wellness device, today published a comparison of affiliate commission rates across the consumer wellness-device market showing that its program pays the highest rate in the industry: a fixed 20% commission on every product Resona Health sells, available to every affiliate from the first order. On the company's flagship product, the $299 VIBE, that commission is approximately $60 per sale. Published program terms for competing devices range from 2% to 10%, or a flat $10, which works out to between $2 and $35 per sale. Rates were drawn from each company's published affiliate terms on the Impact, CJ, Awin, and Skimlinks networks and on the companies' own affiliate pages as of September 2026: Fitbit pays 3%; Oura pays $10 per sale; Apollo Neuro pays 5-10%; Sensate pays 10%; Pulsetto pays 5%; and HigherDOSE pays 2%. "I was surprised when I put the numbers side by side," said Mark L Fox, founder of Resona Health. "I knew our rate was good. I didn't realize how far ahead it was. We are a direct-to-consumer company with no retail channel and no sales force. When a practitioner, a coach, or a podcast host sends us a customer, they are doing the work a retailer would do, and we pay them like it." Resona Health's program has no tiers and no volume thresholds. Affiliates receive one tracking link, ad-ready creative, and a fixed 20% on every order that comes through it - VIBE, BlueVibe, VaguVibe, bundles, and accessories alike - paid monthly. The flagship VIBE offers 60 programs for comfort, calmness, recovery, and nervous-system support, and is sold for people, dogs, and horses, which the company says makes it a fit for a wide range of wellness audiences. The company reports that roughly one in seven of its customers returns to make a second purchase, which it cites as the reason it can sustain a commission rate well above the industry norm: a referred customer is worth more than a single sale. Practitioners, coaches, writers, podcasters, and pet and equine professionals can apply at resona.health/join-our-affiliate/. About Resona Health Resona Health is a direct-to-consumer wellness technology company based in Cape Canaveral, Florida. Its products include the VIBE, BlueVibe, and VaguVibe resonance-frequency devices and the Kario wellness watch, combined with the PRANA wellness intelligence platform into a connected system that measures, intervenes, and re-measures.

Miami, Florida (Newsworthy.ai) Wednesday Sep 16, 2026 @ 7:00 AM Eastern — As interest in research peptides continues to grow, researchers navigating the online marketplace face a fragmented landscape of suppliers, changing prices, varying product availability and inconsistent access to testing documentation. Honest Peptide Review is addressing that information gap with an independent platform designed to make the research peptide marketplace easier to understand and compare. To bring greater transparency to the research peptide marketplace, Honest Peptide Review collects, tracks and organizes information from across the market. The platform: Crawls supplier catalogs to track inventory and price changes Identifies whether suppliers publish third-party Certificates of Analysis (COAs) Documents shipping, refund and payment policies Monitors community sentiment Publishes moderated user reviews One area of particular focus is testing transparency. Certificates of Analysis can provide researchers with important information about laboratory testing, but the availability and presentation of those documents can vary among suppliers. Honest Peptide Review tracks whether suppliers make third-party COAs available and incorporates that information into its supplier profiles. The platform also highlights suppliers that demonstrate the types of transparency researchers may want to consider when evaluating potential sources. Certified-PEP, for example, provides batch-specific Certificates of Analysis and says its products undergo third-party testing for purity, endotoxins, heavy metals and sterility. The company also states that its research peptides are manufactured in a U.S.-based cGMP-compliant facility in Texas. These are among the types of supplier practices and documentation Honest Peptide Review tracks as part of its marketplace comparisons. Honest Peptide Review also monitors factors that can change frequently, including product availability and pricing. By tracking supplier catalogs over time, the platform aims to provide a broader view than a one-time snapshot of a vendor's website. Community feedback provides another layer of transparency. Honest Peptide Review monitors discussions across Reddit and search results while also accepting moderated reviews from users. The combination allows the platform to identify recurring themes and compare community experiences with information published directly by suppliers. By bringing supplier information, testing documentation, policies, pricing data and community feedback together, Honest Peptide Review aims to give researchers a centralized starting point for conducting their own due diligence. Honest Peptide Review plans to continue expanding its supplier database and tracking capabilities as the research peptide marketplace evolves. All compounds discussed by Honest Peptide Review are Research Use Only (RUO) products intended strictly for laboratory research. The platform does not provide medical advice, and the products discussed are not intended for human or veterinary use. About Honest Peptide Review Honest Peptide Review is an independent research peptide supplier comparison and information platform. The company tracks supplier catalogs, inventory and pricing changes, third-party Certificate of Analysis availability, shipping and refund policies, payment options, community sentiment and moderated user reviews. Honest Peptide Review was created to bring greater transparency and organized information to the online research peptide marketplace.

Dallas (Newsworthy.ai) Wednesday Sep 16, 2026 @ 6:00 AM Central — In today's AI-driven world, more information is generated daily. The average knowledge worker already spends roughly 2.5 hours a day, nearly a third of the workday, searching for information. That is in addition to time spent dealing with confident, but unreliable AI generated answers. Cognatum launched today as the first Intelligence Management System for regulated enterprises and the solution to that problem. Every AI system a company uses today needs a source of information. Often times, it is data from the internet. In more advanced systems designed for enterprise use, it may be that company’s documents, policies, and data. The AI system answers questions as if it already knows which content is accurate, current, and approved. It generates answers even when they are not correct or based on usable information. IDC reports that the average knowledge worker wastes 2.5 hours daily on these tasks. That is nearly a third of the workday spent searching for information or trying to verify AI results, at a cost of more than $5 million a year for an organization of a thousand people. In 2018, the International Organization for Standardization published ISO 30401 and, for the first time, gave the world a formal, standardized system for enterprises to manage their company’s knowledge and information assets. This is a knowledge management system (KMS). The ISO standard set requirements for how a company acquires, applies, retains, and retires what it knows. Regulated industries, including banking, insurance, life sciences, aerospace, healthcare, quickly adopted it as the reference. With the advent of AI, the standard's core assumption became obsolete. ISO 30401 was written for a time when only people read documents. Today, the new primary consumer of your company's knowledge is an AI machine. Right now, inside a Fortune 500 company somewhere, an AI just gave someone an answer. No one knows who approved that answer. No one knows when it was current. No one knows where it came from. And if a regulator asks tomorrow, someone has to explain it. That is a problem for most businesses. It is not, however, just an AI problem. It is a knowledge management problem and it is an enterprise problem. Existing KMS systems were not designed to manage AI-driven knowledge. Cognatum is the Intelligence Management System a category built on ISO 30401 foundations and extended for the AI age that has come next. Cognatum's bidirectional connectors reach more than 50 enterprise systems, including SharePoint, Box, Salesforce, HubSpot, Snowflake, Confluence, Microsoft Teams, Jira, ServiceNow, and Workday. This enables users to work the way that they already work while providing them with access to the knowledge that they need. Maintenance as a Loop, not a Project. This is the shift underneath the shift. When the consumer of your knowledge was a person, a knowledge base could be a project stood up, populated, forgotten. When the consumer is a machine, running thousands of times an hour against the same knowledge base, the whole ISO 30401 lifecycle has to run continuously, KMS-wide, or the answers rot in place. Cognatum runs that lifecycle as a continuous loop: eight steps, four phases, one governing rule. Intake · Capture and Structure. Ingest from every source, no re-authoring. Normalize into question, answer, context, source. AI finds and drafts the entries; humans need never touch a form. Refine · Clean. Update, dedupe, reconcile, archive continuously, across the whole corpus. AI flags duplicates, conflicts, and staleness in real time. This is the step that makes an AI answer defensible. Elevate · Enrich and Improve. Tags, relationships, metadata; a living knowledge graph. Rewrites proposed from what usage actually shows isn't landing. AI builds the graph; AI proposes the improvements. Govern & Activate · Approve, Deploy, Reuse. A single human sign-off in Microsoft Teams - logged who, what, when. Approved knowledge made live everywhere at once, written back to the source systems. Served identically to people and AI. AI queues and summarizes, publishes, writes back - but never approves so humans remain in the loop and data remains governed by SMEs. AI runs the loop continuously. Humans hold the gate. Above the Repositories You Already Have The loop runs above the repositories a company already uses: SharePoint, Box, Salesforce, HubSpot, Snowflake, Confluence, departmental drives. Nothing migrates. Nothing moves. And every answer ever given can be replayed exactly as it stood on the day it was served not just what it says today, but also what it said then. The whole system runs as a single-tenant appliance, with an optional air-gapped deployment. No cross-tenant data path. Full data sovereignty. From the Founders "Every enterprise AI conversation eventually arrives at the same question, and it isn't about the model," said Perry Robinson, CEO of Cognatum, who previously co-founded unicorn Medable, Inc. "It's about finding the answer and knowing the answer is right. That's a knowledge management problem and knowledge management stopped being a project the day the primary consumer became a machine. It's a loop now. The AI runs it. Humans hold the gate. Get that right, and finding and proving the answer becomes a feature." Cognatum was built by Scott Getchel, Head of AI, who started the project to keep track of his own work before it quietly spread across the company. "What people tell me in every conversation is that their knowledge lives in fifteen different systems and they need fifteen logins to get at it," Getchel said. "The answer isn't a sixteenth system. It's one loop, running above all of them, that keeps track of what's current, who signed off on it, and where it came from. Once that loop is running, the humans and the AI both stop guessing." Common Roots. Collective Intelligence. Availability Cognatum is available now. The first customer cohorts go live this month, with additional cohorts through the fall. Each engagement begins with a 30-day beta on the customer's own instance, documents, and workflows. Deployment is a single-tenant appliance with an air-gapped option, Microsoft Teams-native approvals, and full API and MCP endpoints for downstream agents. Learn more at cognatum.ai.

Tallinn, Estonia (Newsworthy.ai) Wednesday Sep 16, 2026 @ 7:00 AM Eastern — Canvora, an AI design platform, today announced that its visual generation engine is now available directly inside Claude and ChatGPT. Using the Model Context Protocol (MCP), users can create finished, on-brand marketing visuals in the same conversation where they plan their content - no separate design tool, no templates, and no manual layout work. AI assistants have become a daily workspace for marketers, founders, and small teams, but they generate text, not finished visuals. Turning an idea into a polished, on-brand social post or carousel still meant switching to a separate design tool. Canvora closes that gap: a user describes what they want - or pastes a URL or document - and Canvora returns platform-ready visuals matched to their brand's colors, fonts, and tone. Through the integration, users can generate social posts, multi-slide carousels, infographics, ads, and presentations across more than 100 formats, then edit, restyle, localize, or export them as PDF, PowerPoint, or images - all from the chat. Because Canvora connects through the open Model Context Protocol, the same integration works not only in Claude and ChatGPT but in any MCP-compatible AI agent. A REST API, included on every plan, lets developers embed Canvora's visual generation directly into their own agents, apps, and automations - details for developers and agent builders are at canvora.ai/for-agents. The result is a visual layer for the broader agent ecosystem, not a single-app plugin. Canvora's most distinctive capability is multilingual design. The platform supports content generation in more than 150 languages, including right-to-left scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew. Rather than translating text and breaking the layout, Canvora localizes each visual in place - preserving the original design while swapping only the language. A single campaign can become Spanish, French, Arabic, and German versions in one step, a workflow that typically consumes hours of manual redesign. "AI assistants are where people now start their work, but they stop at text," said Vivek Sethi, founder of Canvora. "We built Canvora to be the visual layer for that workflow - so anyone, or any agent, can go from an idea to an on-brand, publish-ready design, in any language, without leaving the conversation." The integration works today on all Canvora plans, including the free tier, and connects in one step using OAuth - no API keys or manual configuration required. Canvora is available at canvora.ai and can be added as a connector in Claude, ChatGPT, and any MCP-compatible agent.

Richmond, British Columbia, Canada (Newsworthy.ai) Tuesday Sep 15, 2026 @ 4:00 PM Pacific — Choosing a contractor for a commercial renovation involves more than reviewing a portfolio or comparing final prices. Business owners also need to know who will sign the contract, who will manage the site, what work is included, and how changes and handover will be documented. Y&Y Construction Ltd., a Richmond-based design-build and renovation company serving Greater Vancouver, is sharing seven checks to help owners of restaurants, offices, retail stores, showrooms, and other commercial spaces evaluate renovation teams before signing a contract. "Professional presentations and completed-project photographs can be useful references, but owners should still speak with the people responsible for the work to understand the company's principles, project experience, sense of responsibility, and approach to service, rather than treating the lowest price as the main selection criterion during bidding," said a spokesperson for Y&Y Construction. "Even a project that appears straightforward can involve extensive and complex communication, coordination, and management. Cost control matters, but schedule, quality, post-completion service, and the reputation created by the final result are also critical to project success. A more meaningful comparison therefore considers the project scope, the actual project team, and the execution plan developed for the specific business type and building conditions." 1. Verify the Contracting Company and Core Documents Owners should confirm the legal company name that will appear on the contract, invoices, insurance certificate, and WorkSafeBC documents. Business-licence requirements may vary by municipality and project, so general statements such as "fully licensed" should be supported by documents that apply to the proposed work and location. 2. Match Experience to the Business Type A restaurant may involve kitchen equipment, ventilation, plumbing, grease management, fire protection, and health requirements. Offices may place more weight on data, acoustics, phased construction, and the effect on normal operations. Retail and service spaces may involve storefront rules, custom displays, security, accessibility, privacy, and after-hours construction. Owners should ask not only what the company has built, but also what its scope included on comparable projects and who will work on the proposed project. 3. Clarify Responsibility for Design, Permits, and Construction A full-service proposal should identify who coordinates site verification, drawings, consultants, landlord or strata review, municipal permits, trade permits, inspections, and construction. Landlord acceptance, permit issuance, and authorization to begin construction are separate milestones and should not be grouped under a single "approved" status. 4. Compare the Same Project Scope Every bidder should receive the same project brief, current drawings, equipment information, landlord requirements, finish expectations, access restrictions, and target opening date. Proposals should clearly identify inclusions, exclusions, allowances, owner-supplied items, and work assigned to landlord or base-building vendors. On a typical small commercial project, full tender documents may not be available. The owner may instead prepare a detailed list of the required construction work and materials, ask each contractor to enter unit prices, and calculate a total based on quantities. When every bidder prices substantially the same scope, direct price comparisons become more meaningful. When owners request bids based only on design drawings, the information available to contractors may be incomplete. Drawings may not capture every construction detail or existing site condition. An experienced contractor will usually use project management and construction experience to anticipate likely issues and include the related labour, material, and other costs in the estimate. As a result, contractors working from the same drawings can still submit proposals with significant differences in content and price. Owners should not select a contractor by total price alone. They should discuss each proposal with the bidder, confirm the scope and included work item by item, and bring the proposals onto a reasonably consistent basis before making an overall comparison. The lowest total can still be the right choice, but only when the quoted scope, construction work, and pricing assumptions are substantially aligned. Price becomes meaningful only after the bids are genuinely comparable. 5. Examine the Logic Behind the Estimate and Schedule Owners should ask which site conditions have been verified, which information remains unknown, and which decisions or long-lead items will control the project schedule. A credible timeline should include design decisions, approvals, procurement, construction, inspections, deficiencies, and handover rather than counting site work alone. 6. Review Project Management and Change Control Before signing, owners can ask to see the formats the contractor actually uses for schedules, site reports, requests for information, submittals, change orders, and deficiency lists. The proposal should also identify the project manager, site contact, update frequency, and change-approval authority. Except under an agreed emergency process, the scope, cost, and schedule impact should be recorded before additional work begins. 7. Confirm Inspection, Handover, and Warranty Responsibilities The contract should identify required inspection records, testing information, warranties, operating manuals, keys, access credentials, training, as-built information where required, and the deficiency process. A space that looks complete may still have outstanding approval or operating requirements. The purpose of these seven checks is not simply to decide which contractor is "best." They are intended to help owners determine which team can provide the clearest evidence and execution plan for the specific business, building conditions, approval path, and opening target. Y&Y Construction provides commercial design and renovation, construction drawing coordination, city approval support, project management, and construction services across Richmond, Vancouver, Burnaby, Surrey, Coquitlam, and other Greater Vancouver communities. A more detailed guide to choosing a commercial renovation contractor is available on the Y&Y Construction website. About Y&Y Construction Y&Y Construction Ltd. is a Richmond, British Columbia-based design-build and renovation company serving commercial and residential clients across Greater Vancouver. Its commercial work includes restaurants, retail stores, offices, showrooms, food-service spaces, and tenant improvement projects. Drawing on years of industry experience, the company works to turn clients' ideas into completed spaces and provides complete design-to-construction solutions for commercial and residential clients. Y&Y Construction believes that long-term success depends not only on delivering strong projects, but also on earning clients' trust. Integrity guides the work from early communication through construction: every detail is treated seriously, and the company takes responsibility for the final result. Professionalism supports problem-solving and project execution, while accountability extends to clients, the team, and every project. The company values communication and collaboration across its team and applies lessons from each project to continuously improve its service and construction work.

London, UK (Newsworthy.ai) Tuesday Sep 15, 2026 @ 9:00 PM UTC — ICS Legal, a UK immigration law firm regulated by the Immigration Advice Authority (IAA), today confirmed that all case work supported by artificial intelligence tools continues to be reviewed and signed off by a qualified member of its legal team before any advice, application, or decision reaches a client. As AI tools become more common across the legal and immigration advice sector - from document summarisation to application-checking software - ICS Legal has maintained a policy of keeping a qualified adviser accountable for every case outcome, regardless of which tools are used during preparation. "Technology can help us work through paperwork faster and catch inconsistencies earlier," said a spokesperson for ICS Legal. "But immigration cases affect people's lives, families, and futures. Every case that passes through our firm is reviewed by a person who understands the law and the client's circumstances, not just by a tool." The firm, which has advised on UK immigration, British nationality, and European law matters for individuals and businesses since 2006, said the approach reflects its broader commitment to transparency and accountability as the sector adapts to new technology. ICS Legal continues to provide advice across a range of areas, including skilled worker visas, sponsor licences, family and partner visas, settlement, and immigration appeals, from its offices in London. About ICS Legal ICS Legal is an IAA-regulated immigration law firm based in London, providing advice on UK immigration, British nationality, human rights, and European law to individuals and businesses.

Austin, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Tuesday Sep 15, 2026 @ 6:00 AM Central — Episode 1902 of the No Agenda Show, titled "The MTV Chronicles," published September 10, 2026 and hosted by Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak, delivers a special best-of compilation drawn from Curry's years as one of MTV's most recognizable VJs. With Curry traveling back from Rotterdam to Austin and on to the Texas Hill Country, the episode stitches together first-person accounts from the late 1980s and early 1990s music industry, offering listeners a candid, unvarnished look at the era's biggest stars, its backroom deals, and the geopolitical undercurrents shaping pop culture. The compilation ranges widely across Curry's career and Dvorak's tech-industry recollections. Highlights include: A midnight car ride to Prince's Paisley Park in Minneapolis during a 1991 Sam Goody Musicland commercial shoot. The 1989 Moscow Music Peace Festival, billed as anti-drug and anti-alcohol, which Curry frames as a CIA operation tied to manager Doc McGee's Learjet drug bust. Encounters with Tina Turner, Quincy Jones, Raquel Welch, Jamie Lee Curtis, Fleetwood Mac, Steve Stevens, Joe Satriani and Shaquille O'Neal. The MTV.com Gopher-server dispute with the University of Minnesota, settled with a t-shirt. Curry's tone is conversational and often self-deprecating, and the stories land because they arrive unfiltered. Recalling the Prince party warning that he was "too tall and too white" to approach the host, Curry pushed through anyway: "I go over and I say, hey, hey, I'm Adam. Thanks for inviting me. It's very cool. He says, hey, yeah, good you came." On the Moscow flight, he describes Ozzy Osbourne, stranded outside an occupied lavatory with Sharon at his side, wetting himself in the aisle, calling it "probably the saddest thing I've ever seen in rock and roll ever." The episode also traces the machinery behind the music. Curry explains how MTV agreed to always follow "Michael Jackson" with "the King of Pop," forcing a full weekend of segments to be re-taped when the mandate was missed. He recounts Gene Simmons of KISS bursting into a music meeting with kneepads on, and details how Spring Break was invented in 1990 as a vehicle to lure Budweiser advertising to the network. He credits Axl Rose and executive Doug Herzog with ending his Headbangers Ball run, and describes suing MTV Networks over the MTV.com domain, a case that shaped his skeptical view of corporate storytelling. Dvorak adds color from a late-1980s Moscow visit, describing painted-over listening mics at the Mir Hotel and Reagan's post-visit shift on the "evil empire." About No Agenda Show No Agenda is a long-running, listener-supported podcast hosted by Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak that takes a skeptical, independent look at mainstream media, politics, culture, and the forces shaping the daily news cycle. Known for sharp commentary, humor, and "media deconstruction," the show offers an irreverent alternative to conventional news analysis. Episode 1902, "The MTV Chronicles," is available now wherever podcasts are heard, with a special guest co-host segment featuring producer Dana Brunetti scheduled for the following Sunday.

Fredericksburg, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Sep 14, 2026 @ 5:15 PM Central — Episode 1903 of the No Agenda Show, titled "Non-Practicing," published September 13, 2026, features host Adam Curry welcoming a rare guest co-host: Oscar-nominated producer Dana Brunetti, the executive behind The Social Network, House of Cards, Captain Phillips, 21 and the Fifty Shades franchise. Broadcasting from the Texas Hill Country, the two-and-a-half-hour Curry & Friends installment marks Brunetti's first public podcast appearance since leaving Los Angeles in 2019, and pairs Hollywood war stories with a full media deconstruction two days after the 25th anniversary of 9/11. Listeners get a wide-ranging conversation that moves from insider accounts of pitching Sony while drunk to a granular breakdown of the week's dominant narratives. Topic threads include: The classified 28 pages, Saudi Arabia's role in 9/11 and widow Terri Strada's confrontation of sitting and former presidents. The Lindsay Clancy mistrial, the Black holdout juror, and NBC 10 Boston's rapid opposition-research doxxing. The coordinated AI "kill all humans" psyop from Anthropic's Dario Amodei, Sam Altman, Bernie Sanders and Rep. Greg Casar. The AfD's 43.8% earthquake in Saxony-Anhalt and Russia's new targeting of Ukrainian rail and fuel depots. Brunetti recounts the Saturday-night phone call from David Fincher that steered Kevin Spacey and House of Cards to Netflix's untested original-content push, and how Reed Hastings' team bought the show in the room for $100 million across two seasons. On his own legacy, Brunetti is characteristically flat: "So everybody gives me credit for starting streaming and all that. It would have happened no matter what." Curry, for his part, delivers the line that gives the episode its title after a TikToker declares herself "a non-practicing white." The 9/11 segment is the emotional core. Brunetti was two blocks from Building 7 on the morning of the attacks and describes filming the North Tower's hole from his rooftop before the second plane hit, then evacuating over the bridge with his girlfriend, who was opening Issey Miyake's flagship store that day for Fashion Week. Curry revisits Bob Graham's Senate testimony and Megyn Kelly's reporting on the redacted 28 pages, while Brunetti connects the Adrian Lamo thread in his shelved documentary Hackers Wanted to Chelsea Manning's arrest. The AI block dissects Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's G7 remarks, Anthropic's Moonshot AI accusations, and the Sanders-Hawley bill proposing 20-year prison sentences for building artificial superintelligence. About No Agenda Show No Agenda is a long-running, listener-supported podcast hosted by Adam Curry and the late John C. Dvorak that takes a skeptical, independent look at mainstream media, politics and technology. Known for its media-deconstruction approach, sharp humor and value-for-value model, the twice-weekly show offers an irreverent alternative to conventional news analysis.

Springville, UT (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Sep 14, 2026 @ 4:30 PM Eastern — ORGANA International is in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, this week for the ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session, meeting with retail buyers as the company works to expand its presence across U.S. retail channels. The ECRM session runs Sept. 14-17 at PGA National Resort & Spa and brings together brands and category buyers from across retail channels for a series of scheduled meetings. For ORGANA, those conversations provide an opportunity to move beyond simply introducing the company and instead talk directly with retailers about their categories, customers, merchandising needs, and where ORGANA products could fit within their assortments. "This week is really about listening to retailers and having productive conversations," said Mills. "We have an established company, a broad portfolio, and some exciting new ideas for retail. ECRM gives us the opportunity to sit across the table from buyers, understand what they're looking for, and talk about where ORGANA could make sense for them." Bringing the ORGANA Portfolio to Retail Buyers Founded in 1997, ORGANA has developed a portfolio that includes Fulvic Acid Trace Mineral Drink, Liquid Oxygen, Essiac Tea, magnesium creams, and other natural wellness products. Mills is also introducing buyers to ORGANA's new Mineral Shots, packaged in a colorful point-of-purchase display designed to give retailers a highly visible, ready-to-merchandise format for counters, shelves, and other high-traffic locations. The display reflects an increasingly important part of ORGANA's retail strategy: considering not only the product itself, but also how retailers can merchandise and present it. "Retailers have to think about much more than what's inside a product," Mills said. "They have limited space, different store formats, and different customers. We want to make it easier for them to see how an ORGANA product could actually work in their stores." From Online Availability to Broader Retail Distribution ORGANA enters this week's meetings with its products already available nationwide through Amazon and OneLavi. The company's next objective is to build relationships that can extend ORGANA's reach into additional retail channels and put its products in front of new consumers. That makes this week's ECRM meetings an important step in ORGANA's broader U.S. retail expansion. "We've spent years building ORGANA and developing products that our customers come back to," Mills said. "Now we're focused on finding the right retail partners who can help us introduce the brand to a much larger audience." Consumers can explore and purchase ORGANA products through the company's Amazon storefront and on OneLavi.com. To learn more about the company's wellness philosophy visit organa.net. About ORGANA International Founded in 1997, ORGANA International is a wellness company committed to delivering natural, bioavailable products that help people live healthier lives. From trace minerals and liquid oxygen to magnesium creams and detoxification teas, ORGANA’s product line is designed to restore vital elements often missing in modern lifestyles.

Denver, CO, USA (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Sep 14, 2026 @ 3:00 PM Eastern — As businesses across the energy and mobility sectors seek more convenient ways to deliver fuel, JPLoft is gaining recognition as a trusted technology partner for on-demand fuel delivery platforms in 2026. The company combines mobile app development, real-time tracking, payment integration, and operational tools to help fuel businesses build digital services that meet changing customer needs. The rise of on-demand fuel delivery is changing how individuals, fleet operators, and commercial businesses access essential fuel services. Instead of visiting a fuel station or relying on manual delivery requests, customers can use mobile platforms to schedule deliveries, track orders, select fuel types, and receive updates from request to completion. JPLoft, a global software development company, supports this shift through its expertise as a company, helping businesses plan, design, and build platforms for fuel ordering, delivery management, and customer engagement. Meeting the Growing Need for On-Demand Fuel Services Fuel delivery platforms are becoming an important part of the wider on-demand economy. Businesses that manage vehicle fleets, construction equipment, agricultural machinery, generators, and commercial vehicles often need fuel at specific locations and times. Traditional delivery methods can make this process difficult to track and manage. Digital fuel delivery apps bring these activities into one connected system. Customers can place orders through an app, while delivery teams receive job details, follow assigned routes, and update delivery status. Business owners gain a clearer view of orders, payments, inventory, and daily operations. This model can support several use cases, including emergency fuel delivery, scheduled fleet refueling, commercial fuel supply, and doorstep fuel services. It also gives businesses more ways to communicate with customers and improve service visibility. JPLoft’s Role in Fuel Delivery App Development JPLoft brings together product strategy, UI/UX design, mobile development, backend engineering, and third-party integrations to support fuel delivery app projects. Its approach focuses on building platforms around the actual needs of fuel suppliers, delivery operators, fleet managers, and end users. A typical fuel delivery platform may include customer apps, delivery driver apps, an admin dashboard, and business management tools. Each part plays a different role in keeping the service connected. Customer-facing features may include: Fuel type and quantity selection Delivery address management Scheduled and urgent delivery requests Real-time order tracking Digital payments Order history and invoices Push notifications Customer support Driver-facing tools can help delivery teams view assigned orders, access navigation, update delivery progress, and confirm completed deliveries. Admin dashboards can support order management, driver allocation, pricing rules, service areas, payment tracking, and performance reports. By bringing these functions together, businesses can create a more organized delivery process and offer customers a smoother experience. Supporting Smarter Delivery Operations The success of a fuel delivery app depends on more than placing an order. Businesses also need tools that help them manage logistics, service availability, and customer communication. As an experienced fuel delivery app development company, JPLoft develops solutions that can connect with mapping services, payment gateways, notification systems, fuel inventory tools, and other business software. These integrations help reduce manual work and give operators better control over daily tasks. Location-based services can help businesses assign deliveries based on service areas and driver availability. GPS tracking can provide customers with delivery updates, while route planning tools can support more efficient dispatch operations. For businesses serving commercial clients, the platform may also include recurring orders, account-based billing, multiple delivery locations, and usage reports. These features can make the app more useful for fleet managers and organizations with regular fuel needs. Built for Different Fuel Delivery Business Models On-demand fuel delivery is not limited to one type of business. Fuel stations, independent suppliers, fleet service providers, and energy companies may each need a different platform structure. JPLoft works with businesses to define the right features based on their service model, target customers, operating regions, and growth plans. A startup may begin with a customer app, driver app, and basic admin panel. An established fuel supplier may need advanced dashboards, business accounts, recurring delivery options, and integration with existing systems. This flexible approach allows companies to focus on the features that matter most to their operations rather than adding unnecessary complexity. Focus on User Experience and Platform Performance A fuel delivery app must be simple to use because customers often need clear information during time-sensitive situations. Complicated ordering steps, unclear delivery updates, or payment issues can affect customer trust. JPLoft places emphasis on intuitive interfaces, clear order flows, and smooth communication between customers and delivery teams. The goal is to help users request fuel, understand delivery progress, and complete payments without unnecessary steps. The company also considers the needs of businesses managing multiple orders and delivery teams. Admin tools should make it easy to review activity, identify pending requests, and respond to service issues. Helping Businesses Prepare for the Next Stage of Growth As fuel delivery services expand, businesses may need to support more customers, delivery vehicles, locations, and payment transactions. A well-planned digital platform can help them manage this growth with a stronger operational foundation. JPLoft’s software development capabilities allow businesses to plan platforms that can be improved over time. New features, integrations, service areas, and customer segments can be added as business needs change. The company also supports businesses in exploring emerging technologies that may improve fuel delivery operations. These may include AI-based customer support, predictive demand insights, automated dispatch assistance, and data-driven business reporting. Such capabilities can help fuel delivery companies make better use of operational data while improving customer service. A Technology Partner for the Evolving Fuel Delivery Market The demand for convenient fuel services continues to create opportunities for businesses that can combine reliable delivery operations with digital experiences. Mobile apps are becoming a key channel for connecting customers, suppliers, drivers, and business teams. JPLoft’s work in this space reflects its broader focus on building mobile, web, and custom software solutions for businesses across industries. Its fuel delivery app development capabilities are designed to help companies turn service ideas into practical digital platforms. By combining product planning, technical expertise, and industry-focused features, JPLoft aims to support businesses seeking to enter or expand within the on-demand fuel delivery market.

Boca Raton, Florida (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Sep 14, 2026 @ 5:00 AM Eastern — For Wolfson Group, building a larger presence in the United States means looking beyond e-commerce and creating relationships across the broader retail marketplace. The Scotland-based international consumer wellness company will participate in the ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session, September 14-17 in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, where it will meet with buyers representing major health, specialty, food, drug and mass-market retail channels. Wolfson Group enters the meetings with an established U.S. presence through Amazon and a clear objective for its next stage of growth: expanding availability through additional online retailers and brick-and-mortar stores. "Amazon has given our brands an important foundation in the U.S. market, but we see a much larger opportunity ahead," said Scott Dingwall, Founder and CEO of Wolfson Group. "The next step is expanding where consumers can find us, and ECRM gives us the opportunity to sit down with retailers across multiple channels and explore where our portfolio can fit." Wolfson Group's portfolio includes the established wellness brands PhenQ, TestoPrime, NooCube and YourBiology, spanning categories such as weight management, cognitive wellness, gut health and men's wellbeing. The company's participation comes as Wolfson Group works to translate its digital commerce experience into a broader omnichannel presence in the United States. The ECRM format brings brands and retailers together for scheduled, focused meetings, allowing Wolfson Group to introduce its portfolio while learning more about the needs of individual retail channels. For Dingwall, those conversations are about more than securing additional points of distribution. They are also an opportunity to understand how established international brands can best serve U.S. retailers and their customers. "Every retail channel is different, and that's one of the reasons these meetings are valuable," Dingwall said. "We can have direct conversations about what buyers are seeing, what their customers are looking for and how our brands might complement their existing wellness offerings. Those insights are important as we build our U.S. strategy for the long term." Wolfson Group's broader U.S. growth plans include expanding retail relationships, strengthening distribution and continuing to build consumer awareness around its portfolio. The company views its September meetings as another step in developing the partnerships necessary to extend its reach beyond its current Amazon presence. From its home base in Scotland to one of the world's largest consumer markets, Wolfson Group said its goal is to build a U.S. presence that combines the reach of digital commerce with the accessibility and visibility of a broader retail footprint. About Wolfson Group Wolfson Group is an international consumer wellness company focused on building science-led brands that help people live healthier lives. Its portfolio spans weight management, cognitive health, gut health, men's wellness, beauty and healthy ageing, serving millions of consumers worldwide through direct-to-consumer, marketplace and retail channels. Wolfson Group's portfolio includes the established wellness brands PhenQ, TestoPrime, NooCube and YourBiology, spanning categories such as weight management, cognitive wellness, gut health and men's wellbeing. The brands are currently available to U.S. consumers through Amazon while the company pursues broader retail opportunities nationwide.

Boca Raton, Florida (Newsworthy.ai) Friday Sep 11, 2026 @ 1:45 PM Eastern — For retailers, sustainability is increasingly about more than what happens inside a product. Packaging can also influence how a product fits within a retailer's assortment, sustainability goals and relationship with environmentally conscious consumers. NWB Finland Oy will bring that retail-focused message to the 2026 ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session, September 14-17 in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, where the Finnish company will showcase AINA Natural Water and its distinctive 5-liter and 10-liter bag-in-box formats. Unlike premium water packaged primarily in individual plastic bottles, AINA combines naturally filtered groundwater from Northern Finland with larger-format packaging designed to substantially reduce the amount of plastic used. For retailers, NWB Finland Oy believes that creates an opportunity extending beyond the water itself. "Retailers are increasingly looking for products that give consumers a reason to choose them while also supporting the values they want their stores and brands to represent," said Marita Weiman, Quality Assurance Manager at NWB Finland Oy. "AINA gives retailers a premium natural water with a sustainability story that is immediately visible in the packaging." Packaging That Helps Retailers Tell a Story AINA's bag-in-box format provides retailers with several potential merchandising advantages. Its distinctive appearance can help differentiate the product from rows of traditional bottled water, while the larger format is designed for everyday use in homes, offices and other settings. Just as importantly, the packaging gives retailers a straightforward sustainability message to communicate to shoppers: consumers can purchase a larger quantity of premium drinking water while relying on substantially less plastic packaging than conventional individual bottles. That can help retailers demonstrate their commitment to offering more environmentally responsible choices without asking consumers to sacrifice convenience or product quality. "We think the best sustainability innovations are the ones consumers can understand immediately," Weiman said. "When shoppers see AINA, the difference isn't hidden. The format itself helps tell the story, and that can be valuable for retailers as well as consumers." Inside the packaging is naturally filtered groundwater originating in the Pudasjärvi region of Northern Finland. The water filters naturally through layers of soil, sand and rock before being mechanically filtered and packaged. AINA contains approximately 32 mg/L of Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), with a naturally low mineral content that contributes to its soft, neutral taste and clean finish. A Different Proposition for the Water Aisle At ECRM, NWB Finland Oy will present AINA as an opportunity for retailers to add differentiation to the premium water category through a combination of: Distinctive Shelf Presence - 5-liter and 10-liter bag-in-box formats that stand apart from conventional bottled water. A Clear Sustainability Story - Packaging designed to substantially reduce plastic use compared with traditional individual bottled-water formats. Consumer Relevance - A format for shoppers seeking convenient everyday hydration while becoming more conscious of packaging waste. Premium Northern Finland Origin - Naturally filtered groundwater sourced from Northern Finland. Retailer Brand Alignment - A product that can complement retailers' broader efforts to offer consumers more sustainability-focused choices. NWB Finland Oy's ECRM participation comes as the company continues expanding AINA Natural Water into the United States, including its upcoming first U.S. consumer availability through OneLavi.com. "We're coming to ECRM ready to talk about what AINA can bring to a retailer's water category," Weiman said. "It's not simply another premium water. It's an opportunity to offer consumers something visibly different while adding a strong sustainability story to the shelf." For more information about AINA Natural Water, visit AINA Natural Water.

About NWB Finland Oy NWB Finland Oy is a Finland-based company focused on sustainable beverage packaging and natural water solutions. Headquartered in Pudasjärvi, Finland, the company was founded with a mission to develop environmentally responsible alternatives to traditional beverage packaging while delivering premium-quality products to consumers around the world. Its flagship brand, AINA Natural Water, features naturally filtered groundwater sourced from Northern Finland, a region known for its pristine natural environment and abundant groundwater resources. The water is packaged in innovative bag-in-box formats designed to reduce plastic consumption while providing a convenient solution for households, businesses, hospitality venues, and events. NWB Finland Oy's long-term vision is to make Northern Finland's natural groundwater available to consumers globally while continuing to invest in sustainable packaging solutions that support both consumer needs and environmental responsibility.

Boca Raton, Florida (Newsworthy.ai) Friday Sep 11, 2026 @ 4:00 AM Eastern — True Nutrition Technology (TNT), the German sports nutrition brand with more than 500,000 customers, is heading to the ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session with a clear objective: build new retail relationships and continue expanding the brand's presence in the United States. The Sept. 14-17 session in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, brings together brands and category buyers from across retail channels through a series of scheduled business meetings. TNT Managing Director Markus Himmelstoss will use the opportunity to introduce retailers to the company, its German roots, and a sports nutrition portfolio developed for athletes and active consumers. "For us, ECRM is about building relationships and finding the right retail partners for the next stage of TNT's growth in the United States," said Himmelstoss. "We've built a strong customer base in Germany and Europe, and we're excited to sit down with U.S. retailers, learn more about what they're looking for, and show them what TNT can bring to their sports nutrition assortment." Building on TNT's U.S. Momentum TNT enters the September meetings with its U.S. expansion already underway. The company's products are available to American consumers through Amazon and OneLavi, giving TNT an established online presence as it pursues opportunities to expand into additional retail channels. That progression from e-commerce availability to broader retail distribution represents an important next step for the German brand. "The U.S. sports nutrition market is extremely competitive, but that's also what makes the opportunity so exciting," Himmelstoss said. "American consumers have tremendous choice. We believe TNT's combination of German product development, quality, and a brand built around serious performance gives us something distinctive to bring to retailers." A Portfolio Built for Different Performance Needs TNT's portfolio extends across several areas of sports and performance nutrition, giving retailers an opportunity to explore products serving different consumer needs and usage occasions. The company's U.S. portfolio includes Creapure Creatine Monohydrate, CLEAR WHEY protein isolate, Synapsensause Pre-Workout, and Game Changer, a carbohydrate and electrolyte formulation. Rather than approaching ECRM around a single product, TNT plans to use its meetings to discuss the broader brand and identify where individual products may fit within different retail assortments. "We don't expect every retailer to be looking for exactly the same thing," Himmelstoss said. "That's one of the advantages of having a broader portfolio. These meetings give us the opportunity to understand each retailer's priorities and discuss where TNT may be the best fit." From German Success to U.S. Retail Opportunity TNT has built a customer base of more than 500,000 consumers while establishing itself in the competitive German sports nutrition market. The company's U.S. expansion is intended to build on that foundation while adapting its retail strategy to the needs of the American marketplace. For Himmelstoss, the upcoming ECRM meetings represent an opportunity to move that effort forward through direct conversations with retail decision-makers. "We're not starting from scratch. We know who we are as a brand, we know our products, and we've spent years building trust with consumers," Himmelstoss added. "Now we're looking forward to introducing TNT to more U.S. retailers and finding partners who see the same opportunity we do."

Buda, Texas (Newsworthy.ai) Thursday Sep 10, 2026 @ 11:30 AM Central — Buda City Hall was at capacity Tuesday morning as the Hays (Caldwell) Commercial Real Estate Meetup delivered its largest gathering in four years, bringing more than 140 developers, brokers, investors, city leaders, and service providers together for a rare joint appearance by six economic development leaders from Hays and Caldwell Counties. Hosted by the Buda Economic Development Corporation, the session centered on a clear regional theme: one region, two counties, five communities. Panelists Jennifer L. Storm of the Buda EDC; Victoria Vargas of the City of Kyle; Helen Ramirez, AICP, of the City of San Marcos; Holly Malish, CEcD, of the Lockhart EDC; Ari Arias of the Luling EDC; and Mike Kamerlander, CEcD, of the Hays Caldwell Economic Development Partnership, shared priorities, recent wins, and a collaborative outlook for growth into 2027. Organizer Tim Dowling of The Roundabout in Buda said the turnout confirmed how hungry the market is for conversation with the people shaping local investment. "We’ve run this meetup for four years, and we’ve never seen a response like this," Dowling said. "Getting six regional economic development leaders in the same room, all sharing their real priorities for where their communities are headed, is a rare opportunity." Jennifer Storm added, “I am proud to partner with my esteemed colleagues and economic development leaders across the region to collaborate and work together for the future of our connected corridor and our shared vision for growth in our communities.” Storm welcomed the sold-out audience on behalf of Buda. She framed the city’s role as Austin access without Austin friction: a smaller, responsive business climate on I-35, a highly educated talent base, and roughly three million square feet of Class A industrial space available or under construction. She also highlighted The Depot on Main, a revitalized historic train depot reimagined as a launchpad for makers and retail startups, with a planned grand opening in early 2027. Together, the panel painted a picture of a corridor that is diversified, strategically located, and deliberately collaborative. Hays County’s workforce growth, Texas State University’s innovation ecosystem, and site successes such as the H-E-B redevelopment in Buda sat alongside Caldwell County’s cost-competitive land, SH 130 and I-10 connectivity, and emerging high-value industry. Speakers stressed that companies gain choice across five distinct communities while still benefiting from shared infrastructure, permitting support, and a regional labor market of more than 2.7 million workers within a 60-minute drive. Community highlights underscored how complementary the corridor has become. Kyle pointed to healthcare expansion, including St. David’s new emergency center and ACC’s growing health sciences presence, plus new Class A industrial inventory at Kyle Commerce Center. San Marcos described itself as the region’s education and innovation powerhouse, with Texas State University, STAR Park, the regional airport, and an advancing aerospace and defense ecosystem. Lockhart celebrated Hill Country Foodworks’ leap from 10,000 to 62,000 square feet and new downtown redevelopment frameworks. Luling, gateway to I-10, spotlighted X-Bow’s production campus and a widening aerospace and retail footprint putting the community on the map. Leaders returned throughout to partnership over competition, describing economic development as job creation, honest deal-making, and "dot connecting," not blank checks. Workforce readiness, regional job fairs, career and technical education, and business retention emerged as shared priorities. Small business support to microloan partnerships was celebrated as essential to the quality of place that draws and keeps talent. Kamerlander and colleagues framed the Austin-San Antonio Innovation Corridor as Central Texas’ next defining opportunity, with aerospace and dual-use defense technology accelerating alongside advanced manufacturing, retail, and hospitality. The tone was confident and collegial: leaders, backed by regional partnership, presenting not as rivals but as a coordinated front. The Hays (Caldwell) Commercial Real Estate Meetup meets the second Tuesday of each month and serves professionals shaping commercial real estate and economic growth across Hays County, Caldwell County, and the Texas Innovation Corridor.

TEMPLE, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Wednesday Sep 9, 2026 @ 9:00 AM Eastern — Recruitment Operating System (ROS®) today announced the release of its updated and expanded Franchise Recruitment Manual, bringing the industry leading resource in line with how today’s high-performing franchise recruitment teams operate. Created in collaboration with FranMan - the gold standard in creating professional operating manuals - the updated instruction manual offers the most up-to-date advice for integrating proven recruitment principles with modern recruiting tools and best practices. This updated publication marks the first significant update of the ROS® Franchise Recruitment Manual since 2021. "The fundamentals of great franchise recruitment haven't changed, and we don't want them to,” stated Art Coley, founder and CEO of ROS®. “What has changed are the tools, data, and technology available to recruiters. Our job is to bring those pieces together without making recruitment more complicated. We want to take an already powerful resource and make it even more relevant to how champion recruiters operate today.” About the ROS® Franchise Recruitment Manual For high-performing franchise sales and development teams, the ROS® Recruiter Manual has long served as a practical framework, outlining the primary role and responsibilities of recruiters and how best to move candidates through ROS®’ proprietary 8-Step recruitment process. However, the process and pace of franchise recruiting efforts have significantly evolved since the publication's last major update. Accordingly, so has ROS®. Now more than ever, recruiters have access to expanded datasets, AI-driven technologies, and candidate intel that’s much more sophisticated - all right at their fingertips. Which is why the latest edition of the manual combines the timeless recruitment principles and processes the industry has come to know and trust with the latest tools and best practices today’s recruiters need to perform at the highest level. In compiling these critical updates, ROS® collaborated with longtime publishing partner FranMan to oversee the project, organize the expanded content, and develop the next generation of the ROS® Franchise Recruitment Manual. What’s New: The ROS® Franchise Recruitment Manual In previewing the contents of the next generation of the ROS® Franchise Recruitment Manual, careful consideration was given to updating several key areas of the overall process, such as: Recruitment Analytics Introduces how recruiters can use data and performance metrics to understand their own pipeline, identify opportunities for improvement, and make better decisions throughout the recruitment process. Artificial Intelligence Incorporates practical best practices for how recruiters can responsibly use AI to support their work and execution throughout the recruitment process. Recruiter Behaviors & Performance Expands beyond scripts and process execution to address the daily, weekly, and monthly behaviors of high-performing recruiters - including how and when they should review their performance. Different Types of Franchise Buyers Provides additional context for recruiting candidates beyond the traditional individual franchise buyer, including multi-unit, institutional, portfolio, and other sophisticated franchise candidates. Candidate Funding Strengthens guidance around the role funding plays in the recruitment process while keeping the content focused on timeless best practices rather than individual vendors or funding providers. FDD & Recruitment Process Best Practices Expands certain areas of the existing manual where additional depth can help recruiters more effectively guide candidates through critical stages of the process. Modern Learning & Content Integration Explores how the manual can connect with other ROS® educational resources, including ROS Academy™, video, digital content, and other learning formats, creating a more integrated experience for recruiters. Lennon Coley, VP of Analytics at ROS®, is circumspect when speaking about the outsized role analytics plays in the updated manual. “Historically, we’ve been very clear in our belief that analytics shouldn’t be limited to what you can access in an executive report - the information is far too valuable. We believe recruiters should have a crystal-clear understanding of their own numbers, including how they operate and where best to apply them. What we’ve accomplished by expanding our guidance in the analytics space is in tying their importance directly to recruiter behaviors and execution - which represents a significant step forward in the process.” ROS® updated Franchise Recruitment Manual goes a long way in advancing the recruiting industry’s best practices, policies, operations, and standards. While its contents remain faithful to the industry’s bedrock principles, the new additions account for the latest developments and advancements in procedures, tools, resources, techniques, and sophisticated candidate behaviors - offering franchise recruitment professionals a holistic approach to continuous improvement and outcomes. About Recruitment Operating System (ROS®) Recruitment Operating System (ROS®) helps franchise brands recruit more franchisees through lead generation, sales process management, advanced analytics, and executive reporting. ROS® partners with franchise organizations to improve pipeline performance and accelerate responsible system growth. For more information, please visit https://www.recruitwithros.com.

Springville, UT (Newsworthy.ai) Wednesday Sep 9, 2026 @ 8:00 AM Eastern — For nearly three decades, ORGANA International has built its business around plant-derived minerals, natural ingredients, and wellness products designed to become part of consumers' everyday routines. Now, the company is looking to bring that experience to a broader retail audience. ORGANA International CEO Larry Mills will participate in the ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session, Sept. 14-17 in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, where he will meet with buyers representing major health, specialty, food, drug, and mass retail channels. Rather than introducing a newly launched company or a single-product brand, Mills will arrive at ECRM with a business that traces its roots to 1997 and a portfolio that has expanded over the years to include plant-derived minerals, liquid oxygen, herbal wellness products, topical products, and other natural formulations. "We've been doing this for a long time, and we've learned a tremendous amount by listening to our customers and continuing to evolve the ORGANA product line," said Mills. "What excites me about ECRM is the opportunity to sit down with retailers, tell them who we are, show them what we've built, and explore where ORGANA might fit with their customers." From a Wellness Company to a Retail Opportunity ORGANA's participation comes as the company works to expand its U.S. retail presence and introduce its products to consumers beyond its existing online channels. The company's portfolio includes ORGANA Fulvic Acid Trace Mineral Drink, Liquid Oxygen, Essiac Tea, magnesium creams, and its new Mineral Shots, which are packaged in a colorful point-of-purchase display designed to give retailers a highly visible, ready-to-merchandise format for counters, shelves, and other high-traffic locations. That breadth gives ORGANA an opportunity to discuss more than an individual product during its ECRM meetings. Mills plans to introduce buyers to the company's broader approach to wellness, its history, and the potential for different ORGANA products to complement a retailer's existing assortment. "Every retailer is different, and that's one of the reasons I'm looking forward to these conversations," Mills said. "We're not going into ECRM assuming one product or one approach is right for everyone. We want to understand what buyers are looking for and have meaningful conversations about where ORGANA could make sense." A Changing Natural Wellness Marketplace The retail wellness marketplace has evolved considerably since ORGANA was founded in 1997. Consumers today have access to more wellness products, more information, and more choices than ever before. At the same time, interest in ingredient sourcing, plant-derived nutrition, convenient wellness formats, and greater transparency has created new opportunities for brands that can clearly communicate what differentiates their products. ORGANA has increasingly emphasized consumer education around those subjects. Recent company initiatives have explored topics ranging from soil health and nutrient density to nutrient absorption, fulvic minerals, and plant-derived nutrition. For Mills, bringing that educational approach into conversations with retailers is an important part of introducing the ORGANA brand. "Today's consumers ask questions," Mills said. "They want to understand ingredients and why they're choosing one product over another. We believe education and transparency are increasingly important parts of building a wellness brand that consumers can trust." Building on Nationwide Online Availability ORGANA enters its September retail meetings with its products already available to consumers nationwide through Amazon and OneLavi. That online availability gives consumers an opportunity to discover the ORGANA portfolio today while the company explores relationships that could bring its products to additional retail channels. "ECRM is about what comes next for ORGANA," Mills added. "We've built the company steadily over the years, and we're excited about the opportunity to meet new retail partners and introduce ORGANA to many more consumers." Consumers can explore and purchase ORGANA products through the company's Amazon storefront and on OneLavi.com. To learn more about the company's wellness philosophy visit organa.net. About ORGANA International Founded in 1997, ORGANA International is a wellness company committed to delivering natural, bioavailable products that help people live healthier lives. From trace minerals and liquid oxygen to magnesium creams and detoxification teas, ORGANA’s product line is designed to restore vital elements often missing in modern lifestyles. Headquartered in Springville, Utah, ORGANA is a customer-first company with a 5-star BBB rating and nearly three decades of dedication to natural wellness.

New York (Newsworthy.ai) Wednesday Sep 9, 2026 @ 7:00 AM Eastern — The August Wellness Index Report, published by Wellness Eternal, focuses on the discipline that determines whether longevity science reaches anyone at all. The science of living longer means little until it reaches real people. Translational longevity is the work of closing that gap, and its leading voices converge this October at the Translational Longevity Summit in Boston, hosted by Boston BioLife and the Healthspan Action Coalition. Key Takeaways The August Wellness Index Report finds that the gap between laboratory breakthrough and a patient's bedside is where longevity is actually won. The report identifies three signals: cell science moving from proof of concept to real clinical delivery, evidence emerging as the bridge from research to practice, and clinical strategy and systems proving essential to scaling care. Three experts are featured across three vantage points: Dr. Camillo Ricordi (University of Miami), Dr. David Barzilai (Harvard Medical School), and Dr. Suzie Robertson (Matrix Biologics). The Translational Longevity Summit runs October 7 to 11 at the Harvard Enterprise Research Campus in Boston, hosted by Joseph Krieger of Boston BioLife and Bernard Siegel of the Healthspan Action Coalition. The Wellness Index Report applies a four-step verification process built on expert nomination, customer and patient feedback, clinical review, and ongoing performance tracking. The Signals From bench to bedside: cell science gets real. Decades of research in transplantation and cell therapy are moving from specialized centers into the broader longevity conversation. The emphasis is shifting from proof of concept to real clinical delivery, translating foundational science into treatments that can reach patients and reverse, rather than manage, the drivers of disease and aging. Evidence as the bridge to practice. As longevity claims multiply, the field increasingly rewards those who can separate what is proven from what is merely promising. Translating frontier science into guidance that clinicians, executives and policymakers can act on has become one of the most valuable skills in medicine. Strategy and systems that scale care. Even the best therapy fails if the system cannot deliver it safely and consistently. A growing emphasis on clinical strategy, operational rigor and smarter care models is proving essential to ensuring scientific advances reach patients through channels that are safe, compliant and built to scale. The August Features Dr. Camillo Ricordi, University of Miami. Ricordi is Professor of Surgery, Distinguished Professor of Medicine, Professor of Biomedical Engineering, and Professor of Microbiology and Immunology at the University of Miami. His work anchors the report's first signal: translational cell therapy moving from the laboratory into clinical reality. Dr. David Barzilai, Harvard Medical School. A longevity medicine physician and Harvard Medical School lecturer, Barzilai focuses on advancing healthy longevity through evidence-based and precision medicine. He served as medical editor of Harvard Health Publishing's Pathways to Longevity, its first Special Health Report dedicated to the field. A diplomate of the American Board of Lifestyle Medicine, he holds a PhD in health services research and serves as inaugural faculty member and trustee at the Geneva College of Longevity Science. He is known for making complex scientific advances accessible and actionable for clinicians, executives and policymakers. Dr. Suzie Robertson, Matrix Biologics. A clinical pharmacist, healthcare strategist and business developer with nearly two decades of leadership experience across the healthcare continuum, Robertson is recognized for bridging clinical excellence with innovation, helping organizations improve patient safety, operational performance and care delivery models. The Summit's Hosts Joseph Krieger, Boston BioLife. Krieger is President and Founder of Boston BioLife, where he has spent more than 25 years at the forefront of healthcare and life sciences. Driven by a vision to streamline translational medicine, uniting laboratory discovery, clinical practice and community impact, he built Boston BioLife to accelerate the integration of cutting-edge technologies into everyday medical practice through accredited education, training and industry collaboration. Bernard Siegel, Healthspan Action Coalition. Siegel, JD, is founder of the Healthspan Action Coalition and Executive Director of the Regenerative Medicine Foundation. A Florida attorney, cancer survivor and patient advocate, he helped forge the advocacy movement at the foundation of the stem cell and regenerative medicine ecosystem. He conceptualized and co-chaired twenty World Stem Cell Summits and leads the global Pro-Cures Movement, connecting scientists, advocates and policymakers worldwide. Commentary "The future of longevity is translational. The breakthroughs are real, but they only matter when they reach people. That is the work these three share, and the reason the field is converging on Boston this October," said Lindsay O'Neill-O'Keefe, Founder of Wellness Eternal and creator of the Wellness Index Report. "Discovery is only half the job. Delivery is the rest," O'Neill-O'Keefe added. "The future of longevity is not just discovered. It is delivered." About the Wellness Index Report The Wellness Index Report is an independent, practitioner-led research platform published monthly by Wellness Eternal. It evaluates wellness providers, technologies and protocols through a four-step process: expert nomination, customer and patient feedback, clinical review, and ongoing rating analysis. The report is distributed across major media outlets and reaches a global audience, providing visibility to solutions that meet its integrity-first standard. Practitioners, companies and innovators interested in being considered for future reports can participate by completing the official submission and review process.

Boca Raton, Florida (Newsworthy.ai) Wednesday Sep 9, 2026 @ 6:00 AM Eastern — Mitch Gould, founder and CEO of Nutritional Products International (NPI), will bring decades of retail sales experience to the ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session, taking place Sept. 14-17 in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. Throughout his career, Gould has sold millions of dollars in consumer products to many of the country's largest retailers, including Walgreens, CVS, Walmart, Target, GNC, Vitamin Shoppe and others. For Gould, ECRM offers something that once required countless individual trips, appointments and sales calls: the opportunity to connect face-to-face with retail decision-makers from multiple channels in one location. "I've spent my career traveling the country, sitting down with buyers and building relationships with major retailers," Gould said. "ECRM brings many of those opportunities together under one roof. Instead of flying from city to city for individual meetings, you can have productive conversations with retailers over several days in one location." Gould said the value goes beyond efficiency. "Retail has always been a relationship business," Gould said. "There is something different about meeting people face-to-face, having dinner together, talking outside the formal meeting environment and getting to know the people behind the business. ECRM creates that kind of atmosphere." Gould's retail experience spans decades and includes working with manufacturers, consumer brands and major retailers across the health, wellness and nutrition industries. He later developed NPI's "Evolution of Distribution" platform to provide domestic and international brands with a streamlined approach to entering or expanding in the U.S. market. The platform brings sales, marketing, logistics and retail distribution services together under one operation. "ECRM fits naturally with the way we approach retail expansion at NPI," Gould said. "It gives us an opportunity to sit across the table from retailers, understand what they are looking for and introduce them to brands and products that may fit their customers." Gould will attend the September session on behalf of NPI and the brands the company represents. "Technology has made business faster, but relationships still matter," Gould said. "When you can bring efficiency and personal relationships together, that's a powerful combination." About Mitch Gould Mitch Gould is a third-generation retail distribution and manufacturing expert with more than 25 years of experience launching and scaling consumer products across sports nutrition, health and wellness, skincare, hardware, and beverages. He has worked with iconic consumer brands such as Igloo, Rubbermaid, Sunbeam, and Miracle-Gro, as well as high-profile celebrity brands including Steven Seagal, Hulk Hogan, Chuck Liddell, 8× Mr. Olympia Ronnie Coleman, and martial arts pioneer Bob Wall. Over the course of his career, Gould has played a key role in helping shape the growth of the U.S. sports nutrition category-supporting the expansion of performance-focused products across major retail and e-commerce platforms, including Amazon, Walmart, GNC, CVS, and Walgreens. His work has centered on bringing muscle-building, recovery, and performance-oriented products to a broader consumer audience.

Delray Beach, FL (Newsworthy.ai) Wednesday Sep 9, 2026 @ 3:40 AM Central — Episode 817 of DH Unplugged, titled 'I am The House,' hosted by Andrew Horowitz and JC Dvorak, arrives September 8, 2026 with markets reeling from a post-Labor Day selloff, a Dow down more than 600 points, and Treasury Secretary Bessent openly boasting that he holds inside information on the Japanese yen. The hosts frame the comment as a watershed admission that policymakers now play the market as 'the house,' and preview a CPI print on Friday that many strategists are calling the ultimate credibility test for the Federal Reserve. The episode ranges widely across the week's most consequential stories. Topic threads include: Bessent's yen posture and the 'dollar milkshake' conspiracy theory circulating online A dead-quiet Strait of Hormuz on AIS trackers and Goldman Sachs' $120 per barrel oil target Rising 10-year and 30-year Treasury yields against a $40 trillion debt backdrop Meta's roughly $18 billion multi-state settlement over youth safety guardrails NVIDIA's reported $13 billion acquisition of Hugging Face, which JC called a week early The hosts' skeptical, unfiltered tone is on full display when Horowitz recounts Bessent's remarks on the yen trade. 'His way of putting this is, I have an edge. And he even said, because I have the information, I have the inside information about what Japan is doing, therefore when I say something, it's not going to be speculative. It's going to be absolute,' Horowitz says. Dvorak responds by placing the moment in historical context, arguing that since 2008 the government has increasingly behaved like the Roman Senate before Caesar, and that the Trump era simply made the dynamic impossible to ignore. Deeper in the show, the pair dig into why bond yields keep climbing even as the economy runs hot. Horowitz explains that his firm is buying only short-duration Treasuries, citing the crush of new issuance from Washington and from data center operators tapping capital markets globally. They connect the dots to Bloom Energy's addition to the S&P 500, sympathy rallies in Oklo and SMR, and strength in Intel, AMD and SK Hynix ahead of Broadcom earnings. Other threads include Shein's downsized Hong Kong IPO, Good Good Golf's Callaway ad backlash, Nike's exit from the S&P 500, Argentina beef imports, a 162,000 payrolls print, and Astra's partial Navier-Stokes proof. About DH Unplugged DH Unplugged is a weekly investing and markets podcast hosted by Andrew Horowitz and JC Dvorak that blends Fed watching, earnings analysis, commodities, tech trends and offbeat cultural commentary in a conversational, skeptical style. Episodes typically run about an hour and are available at dhunplugged.com, via RSS, Apple Podcasts, Spotify and Amazon Music/Podcasts. Episode 817 is available now wherever podcasts are heard.

Austin, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Tuesday Sep 8, 2026 @ 8:25 AM Central — DataTurk.ai has released its 2026 Home Service Training & Coaching Study, comparing six leading organizations serving HVAC, plumbing, electrical and other home service contractors. The study evaluates Nexstar Network, CertainPath, Service Excellence, Service Nation, CEO Warrior and Power Selling Pros across eight categories: Operational Systems & Business Infrastructure, Financial Accountability & Performance Management, Enterprise Scalability, Organizational Alignment, Customer Journey Consistency, Cross-Department Communication, Behavioral Reinforcement and Customer Experience Alignment. The analysis found that Nexstar Network ranked first in Operational Systems & Business Infrastructure, Financial Accountability & Performance Management and Enterprise Scalability. Service Excellence ranked first in Organizational Alignment, Customer Journey Consistency, Cross-Department Communication, Behavioral Reinforcement and Customer Experience Alignment. CertainPath ranked second in the three systems-focused categories. Nexstar Network ranked second in the five people- and customer-focused categories. DataTurk.ai did not name a single overall winner. “The question isn’t, ‘Who is the best training company?’ The better question is, ‘Who is best equipped to solve the problem holding your company back right now?’” said Bryan Eisenberg, VP of DataTurk.ai. “A contractor that needs better financial controls has a different problem from one that needs better communication between the call center, technicians, salespeople and managers. This study helps owners match the problem to the provider.” The study also identifies CEO Warrior for its focus on leadership, accountability and culture; Service Nation for education, business resources and peer community; and Power Selling Pros for specialized customer service and sales communication coaching. DataTurk.ai based the analysis on publicly available information about each organization’s training programs, coaching models, methodologies and areas of focus. Rather than combining all eight categories into a single score, DataTurk.ai recommends that contractors first identify the business problems that limit performance, then compare providers within those specific categories. To help contractors identify where they need support, DataTurk.ai also offers a short business diagnostic quiz. The diagnostic helps owners identify which areas of the business deserve attention first, then connects those needs to the training and coaching categories evaluated in the study. Read the complete 2026 Home Service Training & Coaching Study and take the diagnostic quiz to see which areas of your business may need the most attention. About DataTurk.ai DataTurk.ai helps home service business owners turn their ServiceTitan data into a clear direction. Its UpScore performance system evaluates key operating results across Booking, Dispatch, Conversion, Revenue Quality and Revenue Trend, helping owners quickly identify where performance is strong, where it is slipping and what deserves attention first. UpScore gives management a clearer way to prioritize decisions without having to dig through dozens of reports and metrics.

Rotterdam, Netherlands (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Sep 7, 2026 @ 7:05 PM Pacific — The milestone Episode 1900 of the No Agenda Show, titled Trust The Plan, published September 3, 2026, arrives on host Adam Curry's 62nd birthday and the podcast's 19th anniversary. Broadcasting from Rotterdam in the Netherlands, Curry is joined by returning guest co-host Rob Dew (Sir Deucifer) of alexjoneslive.com to deconstruct Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's escalating financial war on Iran, the surveillance creep of Flock cameras, fresh revelations about the January 6 pipe bomber, and the speculative AI data center bubble reshaping American power grids. The episode threads several fast-moving stories through a single lens: who controls the flow of money, data and narrative. Topics include: Bessent's Operation Economic Outcast, secondary sanctions, and cutting entities out of SWIFT and the Federal Reserve wire Tom Luongo's thesis that Europe needs a war to blow out bond spreads and consolidate debt under the ECB and digital euro The Leipzig airport quadcopter incident being used to invoke NATO Article 5 talk Flock camera Bluetooth pings, Signal Trace hardware, and the “Have I Been Flocked” website Ricky Schroder's “trust the plan” hay-bale video and the Lindsay Clancy TikTok verdict frenzy Curry plays extended clips of Bessent on Fox News and CNBC threatening Iran-connected assets in the British Virgin Islands, quoting the Treasury Secretary directly: “We know where in the British Virgin Islands your accounts are at these trust companies. We know the $100 million houses you have around the world, and we are going to freeze those.” Dew, boots-on-the-ground at January 6, walks through his own footage of armored officers striking the crowd and describes the plainclothes provocateurs he witnessed near the Capitol scaffolding. The hosts spend significant time on ex-FBI agent Kyle Seraphin's revelation, corroborated by investigative journalist Steve Baker and Congressman Barry Loudermilk, that the January 6 pipe bomber's phone pinged on FirstNet, the post-9/11 law enforcement-only cellular network with 94% three-dimensional location accuracy. They connect this to the arrest of Brian Cole Jr., a size-12 DoorDash driver whose shoes do not match cobblestone measurements pointing to a size 9. Elsewhere, penetration tester Sir Patrick Coble argues data center speculators should post registered capital bonds to protect communities when the bubble bursts, comparing the boom to the 1890s railroad build-out and the dot-com fiber glut. Nvidia's acquisition of Hugging Face, Jevons paradox, and Maria Bartiromo's exit from Fox News round out the tech and media beats. About No Agenda Show No Agenda is a long-running, listener-supported podcast hosted by Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak that takes a skeptical, independent look at mainstream media, politics, culture and the forces shaping the daily news cycle. Known for its media deconstruction, sharp humor, and value-for-value model, the show offers an irreverent alternative to conventional news analysis. Episode 1900 is available now wherever podcasts are heard. This press release is distributed by the Newsworthy.ai™ Press Release Newswire - News Marketing Platform™.

Rotterdam, Netherlands (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Sep 7, 2026 @ 7:12 PM Central — Episode 1901 of the No Agenda Show, titled 'Neighbor Narcs,' published September 6, 2026, features host Adam Curry broadcasting from Rotterdam alongside returning co-host Sir Deucifer (Rob Dew). With John C. Dvorak's chair still being filled by rotating guest producers, the Labor Day weekend episode dives into the surveillance state, the artificial intelligence hype cycle, mail-in ballot litigation ahead of the midterms, and a Virginia prosecution that has parenting advocates outraged. Curry and Dew deliver the show's signature media deconstruction across nearly three hours of clips, commentary, and listener-supported production. The episode's reporting threads include: Signal Trace, the commercial add-on to Flock Safety camera poles that logs Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, RFID and hearing-aid signatures at Walmart parking lots and beyond Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's G20 interview with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on tokens, electricity, and AGI Judge Indira Talwani's repeatedly overturned rulings blocking President Trump's mail-in ballot order The Sheboygan, Wisconsin deflocking after Flock Safety allegedly tried to sell the city its own traffic data Elon Musk's prediction of a billion humanoid robots within ten years Curry, who has spent two years running open-source AI agents on his own Linux hardware, pushes back hard on chatbot doom while championing what he calls the real revolution: vibe coding. 'For the first time, anybody in the world can program a computer,' he says, describing how he built a custom podcast playout system in 25 minutes using Claude Code on the Omarchy distribution. Dew brings the counterweight, playing a viral clip of MMA fighter Cole Johnson planning to fight a chimpanzee abroad, prompting Curry to declare, 'This guy's gonna die.' The pair spend significant time on the case of Carrie Ann Parkinson, the Virginia mother sentenced to six months (suspended) and seven years on the state's child abuse registry for letting her five-year-old son walk half a mile in a gated community to collect goose feathers, a prosecution that appears to contradict Governor Glenn Youngkin's 2023 free-range parenting law. Dew also unpacks a Garland Favorito interview on Lindell TV analyzing Judge Talwani's pattern of rulings, plus a Tinfoil Hat Podcast segment with author J. Harmon on C.S. Lewis's 'The Screwtape Letters' and the 'Sharia Gilgamesh.' Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Vice President J.D. Vance, and envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner all get airtime as the Iran conflict enters its seventh month.

Fort Lauderdale, FL (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Sep 7, 2026 @ 7:10 PM Eastern — In Episode 816 of DH Unplugged, titled Strikes, Spikes, Hikes, hosts Andrew Horowitz and John C. Dvorak open the final four months of the year with a market that is turning, in their words, elephanty. Published September 1, 2026, the episode tackles renewed U.S. bombing of Iran, a sharp move higher in crude oil, rising bond yields, and a fresh wave of corporate winners and losers. The hosts frame September's classic volatility against a backdrop of eroding institutional trust and a Federal Reserve caught between political pressure and a wobbly labor market. Listeners get a wide-ranging tour of the tape, with the hosts naming specific threads to watch: Crude oil surging roughly 13% in two weeks to about $91.80, with diesel crack spreads flashing inflation warnings. Blowout guidance from Dell, projecting fiscal 2027 EPS near $25.50 versus $18.99 prior, on the back of 40% data center share. Nvidia's reported $12.9 billion pursuit of Hugging Face and the Jensen Huang/Sam Altman fallout. Dick's Sporting Goods plunging roughly 30% as Foot Locker comps fall 3.6%. Target's Halloween clown costume backlash and the return of brand-management landmines. The hosts' skeptical, unfiltered voice comes through when Horowitz turns to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Fed nominee Kevin Warsh. "The administration is the boy who cried wolf right now," Horowitz says, adding that "Bessent has really gotten a little bit crazed trying to manipulate the markets." Dvorak connects the dots to bond yields and the dollar, noting that currencies, equities, and even private valuations ultimately rest on one thing: trust. "It's a series of very large trust factors," he argues, warning that tariff escalation echoing Smoot-Hawley would signal that America no longer believes it can compete. The deeper discussion digs into government equity stakes in Intel, MP Materials, and Trilogy Metals, and the lawsuit now challenging the Intel arrangement. Horowitz, who discloses a personal short position in Intel, questions why Washington gets discounted shares that retail investors never see. Dvorak contrasts the U.S. approach with China's state-owned enterprise model and flags GLM 5.3 Flash from Chinese lab Z.ai, reportedly trained without a single Nvidia chip. They also cover President Trump's Fox News threat that Iran will be "totally wiped out as a country" if it retaliates again, LEGO's 21% first-half revenue jump, and the baseball-card casino economy drawing scrutiny from Japanese regulators. Friday's August payrolls, ADP, JOLTS, and ISM data cap the preview. About DH Unplugged DH Unplugged is a weekly investing and markets podcast hosted by Andrew Horowitz and John C. Dvorak, blending Fed watching, earnings, commodities, tech, and offbeat cultural observations with a skeptical, humorous tone. Available at DHUnplugged.com and via Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Amazon Music/Podcasts, the show mixes market intel with the hosts' signature banter.

Boca Raton, Florida (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Sep 7, 2026 @ 2:15 PM Eastern — Crude Energy Beverages Inc., a North American beverage company built around the people who keep industries moving, will participate in the ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session, September 14-17 in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. Crude Energy will introduce its growing beverage portfolio to retailers as the company expands its presence in the U.S. market. The lineup includes Crude Energy energy drinks, flavored teas and Crude Brew Coffee. But behind the products is a brand with a very specific audience. Crude Energy was created for the working class, including the men and women working in oil and gas, construction, trucking, farming, welding, mechanics, skilled trades and other jobs that keep North America running. “We built Crude for the people putting in long shifts, getting their hands dirty and getting the job done every day,” said Cory Yeik, president of Crude Energy Beverages. “These are our people. We understand the work, we understand the lifestyle, and we wanted to build a beverage brand that actually speaks to them.” The roots of Crude Energy go back to 2012, when the founders created Rig Pig Apparel to provide clothing and personal protective equipment for workers in the oil and gas industry. The response to the brand helped inspire the idea of developing beverages around the same working-class community. Crude Energy beverage formulations were developed beginning in 2019, but the company's original plans to enter the U.S. market were interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The founders continued developing the business, expanding into Crude Brew Coffee and other beverages before resuming their plans for broader North American distribution. Today, the Crude Energy lineup is led by bold energy drink flavors including Fossil Fuel, Heavy Crude and Overtime Blues. The company also offers flavored teas and Crude Brew Coffee. Crude Brew is made with Honduran coffee beans sourced from a group of 72 farmers and is available in Dark Roast and Medium Roast varieties, with a Black Gold roast also developed for the line. For CEO Kimberley Johnson, Crude Energy's participation at ECRM represents another step toward getting the company's products in front of more of the consumers the brand was created to serve. “The working class is a huge part of this country, but you don't see many beverage brands built specifically around them,” Johnson said. “Crude Energy is. Whether you're on a rig, behind the wheel of a truck, working a construction site or putting in hours on a farm, we want you to look at a can of Crude and know exactly who it's for.” Crude Energy's brand message is summed up in a simple question: What Fuels You? At ECRM, the company will participate in scheduled meetings with buyers representing major health, specialty, food, drug and mass retail channels as it works to expand its U.S. retail footprint. About Crude Energy Beverages Inc. Crude Energy Beverages Inc. is a North American beverage company built around the people who keep industries moving. Created with the working class in mind, the brand serves consumers across oil and gas, construction, trucking, farming, skilled trades and other demanding professions. Its growing beverage portfolio includes Crude Energy energy drinks, flavored teas and Crude Brew Coffee, with bold flavors and distinctive branding inspired by the hardworking communities the company was created to serve.

NEW YORK (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Sep 7, 2026 @ 11:30 AM Eastern — The Academy of Intentional Magic (AIM), a new creative learning platform, today announced its launch, building on the nearly twenty-year legacy of the Poetry Barn and expanding into a broader commons for artists, writers, teachers, and creatives. "Work is love made visible," said founder Lissa Kiernan, citing an aphorism from Kahlil Gibran's "The Prophet" that has stayed with her since high school. "For artists, that work is often what we can't stop returning to — the poem revised for the tenth time, the scale practiced ad nauseam, the scrappy xeriscape garden. That's the spirit behind the Academy." Poetry remains AIM's first love, but the frame has widened. The Academy now makes room for artists of all kinds — and especially for what happens between disciplines, when one way of seeing alters another. That interdisciplinary exchange continues year-round in Murmurations, AIM's online community for works-in-progress, questions, discoveries, and creative invitations. Academy of Intentional Magic provides a comprehensive ecosystem for working artists, encompassing eight interconnected areas: Community — An online social community where artists network, collaborate, and share practices for maintaining balance between creative work and life. Education — Curated Studios, Craft Labs, and Circles spanning the arts, continuing a tradition that began with AIM's pioneering online poetry workshops. Mentoring — Access to a vetted consortium of master mentors, available from single consultations to ongoing relationships. Publishing — Opportunities to share work through AIM's press and journal. Library — Free public access to 4,000 volumes of poetry, with a specialization in single-author collections and rare, out-of-print titles. Retreats — Immersive retreats and community-wide arts events led by master teaching artists. Outreach — Partnerships with high schools to deliver multidisciplinary arts workshops and education. Fall Offerings and a Labor Day Invitation AIM makes no distinction between art and craft, or between formal and popular traditions. A classical form and a rock lyric, a folk craft and a fine art, can be held with the same seriousness and the same welcome. Accordingly, fall offerings wander through myth, wonder, and the stars. One of the first offerings is "Sky Writing: Write Your Own Horoscope, a workshop led by somatic astrologer Cory Nakasue, taking place on September 8, 15, 22, and 29 from 6–8 p.m. ET. The workshop approaches the horoscope as a creative and symbolic form — part interpretation, part storytelling, and part poetry. To mark Labor Day, AIM is inviting artists to share what they're working on in Murmurations — a messy draft, a half-finished painting, a melody, a collage, an outline, an experiment, even the seed of an idea. The invitation, in keeping with AIM's philosophy, comes with no expectation of polish: the Academy wants to see the work while it's still becoming. AIM is also currently inviting teaching artists to propose a practice, experience, or learning module for future offerings. The Academy of Intentional Magic's programs are available now at www.academyofintentionalmagic.com. About the Academy of Intentional Magic The Academy of Intentional Magic (AIM) is a commons for creative practice, celebrating art, imagination, and mystery. Growing out of nearly twenty years of Poetry Barn workshops, readings, and retreats — including its pioneering online MFA-quality poetry workshops launched in 2007 — AIM has grown into a full ecosystem of community, education, mentorship, publishing, and outreach for artists across disciplines.

California (Newsworthy.ai) Saturday Sep 5, 2026 @ 11:00 AM Pacific — Stebner Gertler & Guadagni is proud to announce that six of its attorneys have been named finalists for the 2026 Consumer Attorney of the Year award by Consumer Attorneys of California (CAOC). This recognition is due to the firm's successful litigation in Tennier, et al. v. MBK Senior Living LLC, where they held a Petaluma facility accountable for elder neglect and death. Doug Saeltzer, president of CAOC, announced the finalists for the 2026 award on August 18. Consumer Attorney of the Year honors a CAOC member or members who significantly advanced the rights or safety of California consumers through a noteworthy case result. Winners will be selected by secret ballot of the CAOC board on September 10 and announced November 14 at the Annual Installation and Awards Dinner during CAOC's 65th Annual Convention in San Francisco. The finalist attorneys on the case are Karman M. Guadagni, Kelsey S. Craven, Kirsten M. Fish, Kathryn A. Stebner, Deena K. Zacharin, and Valerie T. McGinty. About the Case Theresa Donahue was an 85-year-old resident of MuirWoods Memory Care, a residential care facility for the elderly in Petaluma. Staff knew she was at risk for falls and needed assistance because of her dementia and other medical conditions, but repeatedly failed to meet her needs. She suffered four falls and weeks of untreated scabies before a fourth fall in 2021 caused a hip fracture that led to her decline and death. At trial, the Stebner Gertler & Guadagni team built its case around the facility's purposeful understaffing to protect profits. When the defense destroyed multiple categories of staffing records, the attorneys proved the understaffing through witness testimony and admissions from staff. The first trial ended in a hung jury. The team retried the case and won. The case led to two significant legal changes enhancing elder protection in California. The defense's motion to compel arbitration was denied and upheld on appeal in a published decision, creating favorable law for elders fighting long-term-care arbitration agreements. And the evidence of spoliation in the case helped drive passage of Assembly Bill 251 (Kalra), which significantly revised the California Elder Abuse Act to better protect elders and hold bad actors accountable. About Stebner Gertler & Guadagni Founded in 1991, Stebner Gertler & Guadagni is a San Francisco-based elder abuse litigation firm with more than 35 years of combined experience holding nursing homes, assisted living facilities, home health agencies, and hospitals accountable. The firm's attorneys represent elders and their families in cases of neglect, physical and financial abuse, and wrongful death, and pursue class actions and multi-party litigation against unethical and deceptive business practices targeting seniors. Stebner Gertler & Guadagni strongly believes in preserving the dignity and independence of elders throughout their lives.

Boca Raton, Florida (Newsworthy.ai) Friday Sep 4, 2026 @ 6:00 AM Eastern — AgeReverse, a Canadian longevity wellness company focused on healthy aging and cellular vitality, today announced that it will participate in the ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session, taking place September 14-17, 2026, in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.

Boca Raton, Florida (Newsworthy.ai) Friday Sep 4, 2026 @ 6:00 AM Eastern — Reztart, the Swedish metabolic nutrition brand developed by Indevex AB, is preparing to expand its U.S. availability to Amazon, marking another step in the company's introduction to the American market. The upcoming Amazon availability follows Reztart's launch on OneLavi.com and comes as consumers increasingly look beyond traditional approaches to weight management and focus on the broader role that nutrition, blood sugar balance, satiety, and energy play in everyday wellness. "Consumers are becoming much more interested in understanding metabolic health and how everyday nutrition can influence how they feel throughout the day," said Daniel KK Hahn, CEO of Indevex AB. "Expanding Reztart to Amazon will make our nutrition-first approach accessible to a much larger U.S. audience." Reztart was developed as a protein- and fiber-rich powder shake built around Indevex's patented NGC (Natural Glycemic Control) ingredient platform. The products combine protein, fiber, and concentrated natural ingredients in a convenient format designed to support satiety, energy stability, blood sugar balance, and reduced cravings. Metabolic Health Moves Into the Mainstream For years, consumers often thought about nutrition primarily in terms of calories, weight, vitamins, or protein. The growing conversation around metabolic wellness is encouraging a broader view that includes how food affects blood sugar, appetite, energy, and eating patterns throughout the day. That shift is also changing the marketplace. Consumers are increasingly seeking convenient foods and nutritional products that offer more than a single benefit, while employers and other organizations are paying greater attention to the relationship between everyday wellness, energy, productivity, and long-term health. "Metabolic wellness isn't about one ingredient or one number," Hahn said. "It's about helping people make nutritional choices that support more stable energy, greater satiety, and better control over cravings. We believe that is becoming an increasingly important part of the wellness conversation." Protein and Fiber With a Different Purpose Reztart's approach reflects that broader view of nutrition. Rather than focusing solely on the amount of protein in a shake, its formulations combine protein and fiber with the NGC platform, which includes concentrated ingredients derived from apples, rose hips, sugar beet fiber, peas, omega-rich eggs, and whey protein. The shakes have a low glycemic load and are designed as convenient snacks or complements to meals. They are gluten-free, nut-free, and manufactured in Sweden. The U.S. product lineup includes: Reztart Chocolate Powder Shake - A rich chocolate-flavored protein and fiber shake designed as a balanced snack option for busy lifestyles. Reztart Vanilla Powder Shake - A smooth vanilla-flavored functional shake formulated to provide convenient nutrition on the go. Reztart Strawberry Powder Shake - A fresh strawberry-flavored shake combining protein, fiber, and convenient everyday nutrition. Each variety contains 14 single-serving pouches. Building Reztart's U.S. Presence Reztart products are currently available to U.S. consumers through OneLavi.com. The planned Amazon launch will broaden that availability and represents the next stage of Indevex's strategy to introduce its metabolic nutrition research and consumer products to the American market. Indevex has spent more than two decades researching metabolic health and developing NGC. The company sees the growing U.S. focus on metabolic wellness as an opportunity to bring that research to consumers through practical nutritional products designed for everyday use. "The United States is an important market for Reztart, and we are taking a deliberate approach to building our presence here," Hahn said. "OneLavi.com was an important step, and Amazon will significantly expand our ability to introduce Reztart and the science behind NGC to American consumers." Additional information about Reztart's Amazon availability will be announced as the launch approaches. About Reztart® Reztart® by Indevex AB, Sweden, is a European science-backed metabolic nutrition brand focused on blood sugar support, energy stability, and sustainable weight management.

Raleigh, NC (Newsworthy.ai) Thursday Sep 3, 2026 @ 7:00 AM Eastern — LoLo Care, a home care marketplace and coordination platform, is excited to announce its public launch in North Carolina’s Triangle Region of Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill. The company's service offers families a new level of flexibility and choice in selecting and managing non-medical home care for their loved ones. Designed to address the growing need for personalized in-home support, LoLo Care allows families to choose independent caregivers for services such as companionship, meal preparation, errands, rides, light housekeeping, and respite care. With no agency contracts or minimum hour requirements, families can book care starting at just one hour, making it a cost-effective and convenient solution. “LoLo Care is empowering families with greater control over home care, offering flexibility and transparency at their fingertips,” said Charles Petrini-Poli, Co-Founder and CEO of LoLo Care. “Our platform streamlines the home care process, enabling families to manage scheduling, updates, and payments all in one place. This ensures peace of mind while keeping everyone updated on the care being provided.” The platform sets an hourly rate of $30, with $27 directly supporting caregivers, ensuring they are fairly compensated for their work. Families can quickly assess caregiver suitability through detailed profiles showcasing experience, ratings, and background-check status. While LoLo Care does not promise same-day service, most assistance can be arranged within just a few hours. LoLo Care already has over 300+ caregivers on the platform and is able to provide services to thousands of families that need home care support. To relieve the administrative burden on adult children, the platform includes a central family coordination hub. Family members can invite relatives, share calendars, and review caregiver-submitted visit information. Whether siblings live in Wake County or across the country, the system provides shared visibility after every visit, removing the pressure of acting as a full-time care manager. This launch marks the first step in LoLo Care’s nationwide expansion, with the service currently available exclusively in Wake County, including Raleigh and surrounding areas. By eliminating traditional agency constraints and providing a user-friendly digital experience, LoLo Care is poised to redefine the way families coordinate home care. The company's mission is to make aging at home stress-free, dignifying, and transparent by giving families direct control and caregivers fair, empowering work. Unlike traditional agencies with rigid 4-hour minimums and high markups, or unvetted directories that leave families doing the manual work, LoLo Care lets families choose who enters the home. Caregiver profiles display identity-verification and background-check status, experience, ratings, and services. Independent caregivers control their schedules and deal directly with the families they choose and keep the vast majority of the earnings. The marketplace launch addresses a structural supply gap across the home care industry. By 2030, all members of the Baby Boomer Generation will be 65 or older, significantly increasing the caregiving burden on family members. According to AARP and the National Alliance for Caregiving, 1 in 4 adults currently acts as a caregiver. At the same time, families have grown geographically distant over the past decades, turning care coordination into an isolating task. Currently, traditional agency models rely on manual coordination, high overhead, and office rent, resulting in waitlists, missed visits, and high margin extraction. LoLo Care offers a more affordable alternative with the tech-enabled coordination infrastructure needed to bridge this gap. About LoLo Care LoLo Care is an all-in-one home care marketplace connecting older adults and families with independent caregivers for flexible, non-medical support at home. From companionship and meals to errands, rides, and respite care, LoLo enables families to choose their caregiver and manage scheduling, updates, and payments seamlessly in one platform. Currently serving Wake County, North Carolina, and expanding nationwide, LoLo Care offers transparent $30/hr pricing starting at 1-hour bookings to make aging in place accessible and manageable for every family.

Tim will also walk through how many companies are going about AI that is secure, private, and controlled. "You have intelligence sitting somewhere within the pipes of your business," Hayden said. "That's your brand. It is your brand DNA that can shape AI in your brand voice." Hayden started BrainTrust in 2016 to help companies structure and make sense of their data for personalization and improved analytics. "Today, ten years later in 2026, that's the one thing that most companies haven't fully done," he said. Data resolved, unified, structured and labeled has AI work stronger for your brand. Skip it, and Tim says it's going to cost you much more in budget and accuracy to use any AI. He also thinks a lot of businesses are paying for the wrong AI. "There's no reason why you have to look at ChatGPT or Claude to run everything," Hayden said. His point is that open-weight models can be trained on a company's own data, run privately, and cost a fraction of an enterprise subscription for AI models trained on everybody else's business. Hayden takes the main stage at 9:50 a.m, with his talk, "Your Data, Your AI, and Your Future." "I'm excited to join the event, hear other viewpoints, and meet folks who are on their AI journeys, actually experimenting and building," he said. Bryan Eisenberg opens. Dr. Hope Koch closes. Bryan Eisenberg starts the day at 8:20 a.m. He helped coin the term conversion rate optimization thirty years ago, and he's a Wall Street Journal and New York Times bestselling author. His keynote is called "Before the Algorithm, There Was Your Story. That Hasn't Changed." From his session description: "People don't buy rates. They buy stories they can see themselves in." Dr. Hope Koch closes the day at 4:05 p.m. She holds the Godfrey Sullivan Endowed Chair of Information Systems and Business Analytics at Baylor University's Hankamer School of Business. The Lieutenant Governor of Texas appointed her to the Texas Artificial Intelligence Council this year. Her closing session is called HOPE, for Human Opportunity and a Period of Exponential Change. She shows people with no technical background how to turn what they already know about their own business into working tools. 23 speakers, four tracks, bring a laptop Between the two keynotes the summit runs a main stage plus four concurrent tracks: Build, Get Found, Sound Like You, and AI Safety. A few of the sessions: Joseph Scaramucci, Director of Law Enforcement Training and Operations at Skull Games Solutions: "AI, Crime & Community: What You Need to Know." Dariia Isyk of AdmitAI: "Beating Admission Inflation: How We Built an AI Mentor for Every Student." Dr. Mito Diaz-Espinoza, President and CEO of the Cen-Tex Hispanic Chamber of Commerce: "From the Pen to the Prompt: Making AI Work for You." Sara Lohse of Branded Media: "Unpromptable: Using Your Story to Stand Out and Connect." Russ Henneberry of theCLICK.ai: "Build Your AI Marketing Operating System." Tommy Landry, President of Return On Now: "The Signals That Shape What AI Says About You." Chrissy McDannell of The AI Implementation Club: "Build an AI Assistant." You build one during the hour. Jackye Clayton, founder of PeoplePuzzles: "From Pizza Prompt to Practical AI." Kennisha Thornton of Create & Blossom: "The Human Story in an AI World." Mike Hamilton, founder of Rogue Media Network and the summit's co-organizer: "None of this works! Oh...Wait..." Several sessions are hands-on workshops. Bring a laptop and you go home with something that runs. Why the name has a multiplication sign in it "Most people think AI is the great equalizer," said Fernando Labastida, founder of the Viral Genius Institute and co-organizer of the summit. "It's a multiplier, and multipliers widen gaps. A business with nothing to say brings a 1, and AI takes it to 2. The competitor with a real point of view brings a 10, and the same AI takes them to 20. Same tools. Bigger gap." "Dr. Koch is telling people that AI plus humans is better than AI alone, and two humans alone," Labastida said. "That's the whole summit in one sentence." Event details: YOU × AI Summit - Saturday, September 12, 2026 - 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. CT - Performing Arts & Community Center, 924 Austin Avenue, Suite 150, Waco, TX 76701. Tickets are $99.

Boca Raton, Florida (Newsworthy.ai) Thursday Sep 3, 2026 @ 5:00 AM Eastern — Men's wellness is evolving as consumers increasingly take a broader view of nutrition, fitness, active lifestyles, healthy aging, and everyday wellness routines. Wolfson Group, an international consumer wellness company, is highlighting these changing expectations through TestoPrime, one of its flagship brands currently available to U.S. consumers through Amazon. The shift reflects a larger change in how men approach the wellness marketplace. Rather than focusing exclusively on fitness or physical appearance, consumers are increasingly interested in products and routines that fit within a broader approach to maintaining an active lifestyle. "Men's wellness has become a much broader conversation," said Scott Dingwall of Wolfson Group. "Consumers have access to more information than ever, and they are becoming more thoughtful about the products they choose, the ingredients they contain, and the companies behind them." Men's Wellness Becomes a Broader Conversation For years, many products marketed to men were built around narrowly defined fitness or performance messages. Today, the category encompasses a wider range of interests as consumers consider nutrition, exercise, healthy aging, everyday routines, and overall lifestyle when making purchasing decisions. That evolution is also changing expectations for brands. Consumers can research ingredients, compare labels, read reviews, and learn about companies almost instantly. As a result, formulation philosophy, ingredient transparency, manufacturing standards, and responsible communication are becoming increasingly important parts of the purchasing decision. TestoPrime reflects Wolfson Group's approach to this evolving marketplace. The brand was developed around a multi-ingredient formulation and is part of a broader portfolio designed for increasingly informed wellness consumers. A More Informed Male Consumer Greater access to information is also making it easier for consumers to look beyond marketing claims and examine what is actually inside the products they purchase. "We believe today's consumer wants more than a headline promise," Dingwall added. "They want to understand what they are buying, how products are formulated, and whether the company behind them takes quality seriously. That is raising expectations throughout the wellness industry." For Wolfson Group, that increased consumer sophistication represents an important long-term trend. The company's portfolio also includes NooCube, YourBiology, and PhenQ, each serving distinct areas of the consumer wellness marketplace. Expanding TestoPrime's U.S. Presence TestoPrime is currently available to U.S. consumers through Amazon as Wolfson Group continues exploring opportunities to broaden the availability of its brands across the United States. As part of that expansion strategy, Wolfson Group will participate in the ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session, Sept. 14-17, 2026, in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. The event provides another opportunity for the company to introduce its portfolio as it pursues additional U.S. retail opportunities. "The United States represents an important growth market for Wolfson Group," Dingwall said. "We have already established availability through Amazon, and our participation in September's retail meetings is another step toward building broader awareness and distribution for our brands." About Wolfson Group Wolfson Group is an international consumer wellness company focused on building science-led brands that help people live healthier lives. Its portfolio spans weight management, cognitive health, gut health, men's wellness, beauty and healthy ageing, serving millions of consumers worldwide through direct-to-consumer, marketplace and retail channels. Wolfson Group's portfolio includes the established wellness brands PhenQ, TestoPrime, NooCube and YourBiology, spanning categories such as weight management, cognitive wellness, gut health and men's wellbeing. The brands are currently available to U.S. consumers through Amazon while the company pursues broader retail opportunities nationwide.

San Antonio, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Thursday Sep 3, 2026 @ 12:01 AM Central — The first installment of the San Antonio Home and Garden Series on The Building Texas Show, titled No Storage Unit. Still 24/7 Access: Tuff Shed and hosted by Justin McKenzie, brings listeners a floor-side conversation with Richard Castellanos of Tuff Shed, recorded live at the San Antonio Home and Garden Show. Published August 30, 2026, the episode unpacks how an employee-owned American manufacturer is helping South Texas homeowners reclaim garages, cancel monthly storage rentals, and add fully customized backyard structures that in most cases go up in a single day. Castellanos walks McKenzie through the practical mechanics of buying a Tuff Shed in the San Antonio market, with specific attention to details that buyers frequently overlook: San Antonio's 300-square-foot threshold for building without a permit, and how municipalities like Castle Hills and Alamo Heights differ Stick-built framing using 2x4s at 16 on center, with 2x6 or 2x8 upgrades on designs like the two-story barn Residential use cases (studios, workspaces, garage overflow) alongside commercial work for school districts, government entities, and San Antonio Air Force bases The Woodmaster's division for truly portable structures, including popular chicken coops and greenhouses Castellanos frames the company's employee-ownership model as central to the customer experience, not a footnote. "It's not just me as a sales design consultant trying to sell you a product. It's actually me trying to get you an experience that one, you're going to recommend to your friends and two, is going to keepsake your valuables, your memorables that you're storing in your shed," he tells McKenzie. On the shift driving current demand, he is blunt: "A majority of our business is residential, obviously, but they want to get out of their storage unit that they're paying for, get something on their property that they can access 24/7." The conversation also traces Tuff Shed's national footprint back to founder and CEO Tom Saurey, who launched the company 45 years ago and has grown it to 74 factories across the United States. Locally, Castellanos points listeners to two South Side locations outside Loop 410, a display yard at 410 and Bandera where he is based, and a new location off I-35 in New Braunfels. Turnaround, he notes, currently runs a week to 10 days from design to build slot, with the actual assembly typically completed on site in a single day. Customers can also self-design at toughshed.com before ever contacting a consultant. About The Building Texas Show The Building Texas Show, hosted by Justin McKenzie, profiles the operators, tradespeople, and entrepreneurs shaping how Texas gets built. From job sites to trade-show floors like the San Antonio Home and Garden Show, the podcast delivers practical, name-a-name conversations for homeowners, builders, and small-business leaders across the state.

Dubuque, IA (Newsworthy.ai) Wednesday Sep 2, 2026 @ 7:00 AM Eastern — Hartig Drug Company has expanded its product lineup by adding Nefense® nasal care products at select locations in Iowa, Illinois, and Wisconsin, offering customers new drug-free options for daily nasal hygiene. The new assortment brings together two companies with roots in Dubuque. Hartig Drug was founded in Dubuque in 1904 and has served generations of families across the Tri-State Area. Developed in Dubuque by Richard Downs, DDS, Nefense is backed by over forty years of clinical expertise in oral health, breathing, and airway function. "We are excited to offer Nefense nasal solutions at Hartig drug stores," said Charlie Hartig, CEO of Hartig Drug Company. "There is real meaning in this too: a Dubuque developed product line now on Hartig shelves, reaching the communities we serve together." A Different Approach to Daily Nasal Hygiene The Nefense products available at participating Hartig Drug stores include: Hyponasal: A hypochlorous acid nasal spray that contains HOCl for routine nasal cleansing. The non-medicated, steroid-free formula is designed to help rinse away everyday dust, pollen and airborne particles. Hyponasal Junior: An HOCl nasal spray formulated specifically for children and designed for gentle daily nasal hygiene. Hypobaby: An ultra-gentle HOCl nasal spray for infants and young children, designed for routine nasal cleansing and comfort. Xyloclean: A xylitol nasal spray designed to moisturize the nasal passages and support a daily nasal care routine, including during dry indoor conditions and travel. Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is a natural component of human biology. White blood cells produce HOCl as part of the body's innate immune response. The molecule has also been studied in several areas of medicine. Published randomized clinical research has evaluated low-concentration hypochlorous acid nasal irrigation in people with chronic sinonasal symptoms and allergic rhinitis. Those studies evaluated HOCl nasal irrigation generally and were not studies of Nefense-branded products. “I believe hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is still in its infancy in terms of its role in medicine, as more applications continue to be discovered,” said F. Hunter Fuerste, MD, a board-certified ophthalmologist in Dubuque. “It is a gentle, nontoxic, naturally occurring molecule produced by white blood cells that has both anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. Today, HOCl is being used in areas including skincare, wound care, eyelid hygiene for blepharitis, and oral rinses.” From Dubuque Development to Tri-State Pharmacy Shelves For Hartig Drug, adding Nefense fits a long-standing focus on bringing health, wellness and everyday consumer products to the communities it serves, including products developed by local and regional businesses. Nefense focuses on daily nasal hygiene, offering an alternative to medicated decongestants. The assortment gives customers nasal care options across different ages and needs, including an HOCl nasal spray for adults, age-specific nasal sprays for children and infants, and a xylitol nasal spray for moisturizing nasal care. The addition also brings a locally developed health and wellness product from Dubuque into a pharmacy company that has called Dubuque home for more than 120 years. Nefense products are available now at participating Hartig Drug locations. Customers can visit hartigdrug.com/stores to find a nearby Hartig Drug store and contact the location directly to confirm product availability. About Hartig Drug Company Founded in Dubuque, Iowa, in 1904, Hartig Drug Company is a family-owned pharmacy and retail company serving communities throughout Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin. Hartig Drug provides community pharmacy services along with health, wellness and everyday consumer products, with a continued focus on personalized service and strong local community relationships. About Nefense Nefense, Natural Wellness & Defense, is a Dubuque, Iowa-based nasal wellness company focused on daily nasal hygiene, airway care and better breathing. Developed under the direction of Richard Downs, DDS, the Nefense portfolio includes HypoNasal, HypoNasal Junior, HypoBaby and XyloClean, with hypochlorous acid and xylitol-based formulations designed for routine nasal care.

Dallas, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Tuesday Sep 1, 2026 @ 8:00 PM Eastern — Episode 170 of The Proven Entrepreneur, titled 'The Physicist Who Sold Everything to Learn What Really Builds a Business,' hosted by Don Williams, features a candid conversation with Randy Lyman, a physicist and engineer with multiple patents who built and exited multiple eight-figure companies and earned a spot on the Inc. 500, not the 5,000. Published August 31, 2026, the episode makes the case that the true engine of durable business growth is not strategy or grit, but emotional mastery, a claim Lyman backs with 36 years of practice and hundreds of coaching engagements. Williams and Lyman move quickly from résumé to reckoning, unpacking why so many high-IQ founders quietly stall out. Listeners get a working framework drawn straight from Lyman's book The Third Element, plus concrete stories from the factory floor and the boardroom. Topic threads include: The 1989 Ford truck that exposed the emptiness of material milestones Why young men shut off emotions to survive, and pay for it later as leaders Reconciling Heisenberg's uncertainty principle and the 1927 double slit experiment with the law of attraction Gratitude as a business "cheat code" and Williams' mission to move a million people into a daily practice Lyman, who describes himself as a 64-year-old successful man still comfortable crying his tears, does not soften the physics or the feelings. Recalling the 1999 afternoon that reset his career, he tells Williams: They proceeded to tell me that I was the problem for the business and that I could do better and I needed to look at myself in a nutshell. And they were right. Williams, for his part, traces his own turn to a talk he heard in Bangkok, Thailand, roughly a decade ago, delivered by a researcher now completing a doctoral program at Oxford on the intersection of neuroscience and spirituality. That talk, he says, convinced him that humans perform at their best in gratitude and at their worst in shame and fear. The deeper half of the episode is where the physicist really shows up. Lyman sorts all of reality into three categories, thought and information, the physical body and world, and emotions, then argues that unresolved emotional energy creates a harmonic resonance the universe keeps mirroring back. He translates the same idea for skeptics using boardroom behavior, describing how tense founders trigger board members who behave "like wolves," while calm, emotionally clear leaders defuse the room. He also connects the physics definition of power, the ability to accomplish work, to team performance, insisting profits, expansion and industry change follow leaders who serve their people first. Founders can reach him at randylyman.com. About The Proven Entrepreneur Hosted by Don Williams, The Proven Entrepreneur delivers real success stories from founders who have actually built, scaled and exited companies. The show's mission is simple: help others, help others, most often by growing sales, sharpening customer experience, strengthening culture and coaching leaders to show up like rock stars. Episode 170 is available now wherever podcasts are heard, at provenentrepreneurshow.com, and on Apple Podcasts, where listeners can subscribe and leave a review.

Las Vegas, Nevada (Newsworthy.ai) Tuesday Sep 1, 2026 @ 7:39 AM Pacific — On August 27, the inaugural Chinatown Creator Awards at COYA Living attracted a record-breaking crowd, honoring the top creators for their impact on the Spring Mountain Road corridor's culture and commerce. COYA Living, the luxury apartment community at Chinatown's eastern gateway, served as co-host and venue. The private reception brought together photographers, videographers, food personalities, digital storytellers, chefs, restaurant owners, neighborhood partners, and guests. Writer, film director, and City Cast correspondent Jason Harris served as the evening's emcee. The 20 honorees were acknowledged in five groups, mirroring their May introduction in the 'This Week in Chinatown' series by ChinatownVegas.com. Among the honorees in attendance were @lasvegasfill, @brandonfromvegas, @wheretogovegas, @therubyontherocks, @baileyzeats, @withlove_christine, @tiny_pennguin, @giselliii93, @tiarappgyo, @antonio_loves_wings, @heydonnah, @ceslynne, @shekuni_lv, and @studiosealv. Honorees attending the reception received custom Chinatown Creator Award plaques commemorating their influence and contributions to the neighborhood. “The creators honored through these awards have done far more than post about restaurants,” said Joe Muscaglione, founder of ChinatownVegas.com and Chinatown Amplify. “They have documented openings, introduced new audiences to independent businesses, captured the people and dishes that define this corridor, and helped the world see why Las Vegas Chinatown matters.” ChinatownVegas.com Unites Restaurants and Chefs in a Culinary Celebration. ChinatownVegas.com proudly hosted an original culinary presentation, showcasing the talents of chefs and restaurants from the vibrant Chinatown corridor. Highlighting the event were Sparrow + Wolf and Lamaii, both of which received MICHELIN Guide recommendations the night before, as reported by Las Vegas Weekly. Chef Brian Howard of Sparrow + Wolf engaged with creators and guests throughout the reception, offering a smoky, wood-fired Isaan sausage enhanced with fermented green mango, nam pla prik, and perilla leaf. Lamaii delighted attendees with their garlicky crispy prawn. Lamaii served a garlicky crispy prawn. Chef Steve Kestler and Aroma Latin American Cocina created a citrus-forward Chinatown Ceviche exclusively for the event. "It was an honor to be part of this great community event," Kestler said. Chef Jimmy Li and Shanghai Taste contributed a rich, exclusive abalone and sea cucumber meatball, while Double Zero Pie & Pub debuted its new, crispy-edged New York-style pizza. China Mama served tangy orange chicken, and Crystina Nguyen of Mama's House × Durango Social Club presented delicate rice dumplings with mung bean, pork, and shrimp. O.Onigiri offered a tri-pack of unagi, wagyu, and shrimp tempura. Noodlehead's famous beef rolls were passed throughout both rooms all evening, while the restaurant's station served its classic shredded chicken and cold noodles. Charismatic Yo, Mochi! founder Santy Luangpraseuth was on hand with the night's crème brûlée mochi donut, a caramelized, custard-filled favorite. Chef Yuka of Moignet Café rounded out the sweets with a delicate, pillowy mini chiffon sando, and Milk Bread kept the table stocked with warm cheese bread and guava bread. Longtime food and beverage veteran Paul Ellis poured wine and champagne throughout the evening and paired his port service with a rich blue cheese flight. The Alchemist Bar & Restaurant provided cocktails and zero-proof beverages throughout the reception. Among the guests were celebrated rock photographer David Plastik, whose work has appeared in Rolling Stone, RIP, and Creem, and legendary music publicist Mitch Schneider, whose career has included representing David Bowie, Ozzy Osbourne, Aerosmith, and Tom Petty. Schneider later described the reception on Facebook as a "meaningful event" honoring creators "who've helped put Las Vegas Chinatown on the map," praising the "taste bud-awakening curated bites from Chinatown's top chefs." The collective showing allowed Chinatown's culinary and business communities to participate directly in recognizing the content creators whose work regularly introduces local businesses to new audiences. Recognizing the Voices Telling Chinatown's Story Las Vegas Chinatown receives approximately 23.9 million visits annually and is home to 248 verified sit-down restaurants, along with cafés, specialty markets, spas, retailers, and nightlife businesses stretching from I-15 to Rainbow Boulevard. "It's 23.9 million visits a year - more than some countries and more than most cities - all concentrated in one neighborhood," Muscaglione said. "These creators have helped the world see why." The Chinatown Creator Awards were established to formally recognize photographers, videographers, food voices, and community storytellers whose independent work has helped build awareness of the corridor and its businesses. Through restaurant discoveries, opening-day coverage, photography, video, interviews, and ongoing neighborhood storytelling, the honorees have helped turn individual Chinatown businesses into destinations while establishing the corridor as one of Las Vegas' most closely watched neighborhoods. The over-capacity attendance, broad culinary participation, and support from across the neighborhood made the inaugural reception an undeniable success and established a strong foundation for the future of the Chinatown Creator Awards. Special Edition of This Week in Chinatown ChinatownVegas.com is presenting complete coverage of the awards in a special edition of This Week in Chinatown. Both the written edition and companion video episode are devoted to the reception, including scenes from the evening, award presentations, interviews, and additional event coverage. Beginning with subsequent editions, the written This Week in Chinatown report and its companion video episode will be released together every Monday.

Buda, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Tuesday Sep 1, 2026 @ 7:00 AM Central — The Buda Economic Development Corporation (Buda EDC) is pleased to announce that The Roundabout in Buda, an 18-acre, nine-building community-focused development on Ranch to Market 967, will host a community shovel ceremony Tuesday, September 8, 2026, at 11:00 a.m., celebrating construction already underway. Developer Tim Dowling and Buda Capital Partners will be joined by Mayor Lee Urbanovsky, City Manager Micah Grau, and Buda EDC CEO Jennifer Storm. Made possible through an incentive between the City of Buda and the Buda EDC, The Roundabout is a purpose-built destination development in West Buda designed to fill a growing demand for a central place where residents can connect, relax, and build community. Unlike traditional retail centers or strip malls, the development is intentionally walkable, shaped around a signature circular promenade that integrates retail, dining, office space, trails, patios, playgrounds, and inviting outdoor areas into a seamless, community-centric experience. "The dirt has already started moving, but today is about the community that made this possible," said Dowling. "It's an incentive-backed project, supported by the City of Buda and the Buda EDC." "This project is a true reflection of what the people of Buda have been asking for: a place where the community can thrive," said Jennifer Storm, Chief Executive Officer for the Buda Economic Development Corporation. "The Roundabout enhances quality of life while honoring the heritage that makes Buda special." As Buda continues to experience high population growth, residents have expressed a strong desire for a true community gathering place where families, friends, and neighbors can come together, not just to shop and dine, but to spend time, celebrate, and connect. The Roundabout was created to meet that need, delivering the family-focused amenities (pickleball, volleyball, live music, and kids' play areas). "Buda’s evolution calls for intentional spaces that bring people together, and The Roundabout development is focused on creating a community-gathering environment," said Dowling. "At the same time, the people-forward design was intentionally created to stand the test of time. This type of multiuse destination will serve residents, visitors, and support economic growth in the City for generations to come." Event Details What: Community Ground Breaking Ceremony When: Tuesday, September 8, 2026, 11:00 a.m. Where: 1141 RM 967, Buda, Texas Who: Mayor Urbanovsky, City Manager Grau, Jennifer Storm (Buda EDC), Monica Davidson (Chamber), Tim Dowling, tenants, investors Located a mile from Downtown Buda on the South edge of Austin along the I-35 corridor between Austin and San Marcos, The Roundabout is 51% pre-leased and will be surrounded by almost 9,000 homes. Anchors include M. McCall's Pub and a Moontower-style entertainment venue, both run by Buda Capital Partners. Future tenants La Ola Pop Shop and Trianon Coffee will serve refreshments at the ceremony. Members of the media are welcome.

ATLANTA / BIRMINGHAM, AL (Newsworthy.ai) Tuesday Sep 1, 2026 @ 8:00 AM Eastern — Bare&Sol™ and facial collective® unite under one roof at a community studio with roots dating to 2013, offering a new blueprint for franchise ownership. FG Brands, the franchise platform behind Bare&Sol™ and facial collective®, has opened the beauty and wellness franchise industry's first dual-concept studio this month in Birmingham's Mountain Brook community - and is now offering the model to prospective franchisees nationwide. The Cahaba Village Plaza studio has served the Birmingham community since 2013, first as LA Bikini and, following FG Brands' acquisition and 2026 national rebrand, as Bare&Sol™. As part of the transition, the studio relocated a few doors down within the same center and underwent a complete remodel, adding facial collective® as a co-located sister brand - creating the first studio of its kind in the franchise industry. The result: a single location now serving more than 1,000 members across both brands, a meaningful share of whom hold memberships in both. Facial care, hair removal, and airbrush tanning are highly complementary services, and the studio's opening membership numbers reflect the built-in convenience of offering all three under one roof. For prospective franchisees, Birmingham is a working proof of concept for what a dual-concept territory can deliver: two recurring-revenue membership brands sharing one lease, one team, and one base of foot traffic. “Birmingham shows exactly what we set out to build with this dual-concept model,” said Jan Zalud, CEO of FG Brands. “This studio has been part of its community since 2013, and rather than start from scratch, we were able to reinvest in a proven location, remodel it, and bring facial collective alongside Bare&Sol under one roof. What makes this work is that each brand stays independent - facial collective focused on face care and aesthetics, Bare&Sol focused on hair removal and airbrush tanning. Neither one dilutes its expertise or identity by bolting on services outside its lane, which is a trap a lot of brands fall into as they try to grow. Guests get the convenience of both under one roof, and franchisees get two focused, proven businesses instead of one that's spread thin. We're excited to offer this same opportunity to franchisees across the country.” As a franchise opportunity, combining the service lines of facial collective® and hair removal and airbrush tanning through Bare&Sol™ is design-built to take advantage of their membership-based business models, where recurring monthly revenue remains a key driver of strong unit-level economics. About Bare&Sol™ Bare&Sol™ (formerly LA Bikini) is the only franchise opportunity that provides members and guests with expert hair removal and airbrush spray tanning services, two high-demand beauty wellness routines under one roof. This unique combo creates two distinct revenue streams for Bare&Sol™ owners, a brand founded on expert-level care, skin-loving ingredients, and an all-inclusive experience where everyone is made to feel welcome. To learn more about Bare&Sol™ memberships, information on booking guest appointments, and the simple steps involved to become a franchise owner, please visit https://bareandsol.skin/pages/franchising. About facial collective® facial collective® is a modern, open-concept facial studio that offers a wide range of professional skincare and facial treatments with a highly personalized touch. As a franchise opportunity, it features a scalable business model that has been tested, refined, and perfected to operate as a sleek and professional facial collective for highly motivated entrepreneurs looking to take charge of their own destiny. Specializing in facial treatments, the sale of high-quality skincare products, and a full range of injectable regimens, facial collective® is changing the way consumers feel and act on their own self-care interests. For more information, please visit https://facialcollective.com/pages/franchise. About FG Brands FG Brands is a self-care and wellness franchise platform that empowers entrepreneurs, home to two fast-growing skincare brands - Bare&Sol™ and facial collective®.

Scottsdale, AZ (Newsworthy.ai) Tuesday Sep 1, 2026 @ 6:00 AM Mountain — Featured today announced that HARO (Help a Reporter Out) has sent more than 100 million emails connecting journalists with sources since Featured relaunched the service in April 2025, providing a view into how AI, spam, and increasingly crowded inboxes are changing the relationship between journalists and PR professionals. HARO's 2026 statistics show that as the volume of communication between journalists and sources grows, both sides are putting more emphasis on filtering and authenticity. What HARO’s data shows: 21% of pitches are entirely AI-generated: More than one in five pitches submitted through HARO are written completely by AI. 35% of journalists block AI-generated pitches: More than one-third of journalists now choose to block AI-generated responses when submitting a request. A user is banned every 23 minutes: HARO bans users primarily for spam and violations of its terms of service 32% of journalist requests are rejected: Nearly one-third of journalist requests are rejected during the approval process after reviewing the journalist, publication, and request for quality and legitimacy. Human-written pitches are ~3x more likely to be used by journalists The rise of AI-generated pitches is one of the clearest signals in the data. While AI can make it easier for publicists and sources to produce responses at scale, journalists are increasingly filtering those responses. “Human-written pitches are about 3x more likely to get featured than AI-written ones,” said Brett Farmiloe, CEO of HARO. “The sources who stand out typically come from fully human teams who can provide credible information, respond to what the journalist actually asked for, and make the journalist’s job easier. As inboxes get more crowded, being helpful becomes the differentiator.” Every pitch submitted through HARO is analyzed using AI detection technology provided by Pangram. Journalists can also report unhelpful pitches, which triggers a manual review by the HARO team. The data points to a growing challenge for PR professionals: as access to journalists increases, earning their attention is becoming harder. In increasingly crowded inboxes, relevance, credibility, and expertise are becoming critical ways for sources to stand out. About HARO HARO (Help a Reporter Out) is a free newsletter that connects journalists with expert sources who can provide insights and expertise for stories. Founded in 2008, HARO was shut down by its previous owner in December 2024 and relaunched by Featured in April 2025. HARO delivers journalist requests directly to subscribers, giving subject matter experts, publicists, and PR professionals opportunities to respond to relevant media inquiries and earn coverage. About Featured Featured is an AI co-pilot for public relations (PR) that helps communications professionals and subject matter experts find earned media opportunities, draft responses, and secure coverage - across journalist requests, podcasts, bylined articles, speaking engagements, awards, and generative engine optimization (GEO). The company owns and operates HARO (Help a Reporter Out) and Connectively, which connect journalists and publishers with subject matter experts. Featured supports more than 100,000 users and helps 2,500 publishers fill content gaps with expert insights. Press Inquiries Brett Farmiloe Email Contact https://helpareporter.com Terkel, Inc.

Fort Lauderdale, FL (Newsworthy.ai) Tuesday Sep 1, 2026 @ 6:00 AM UTC — KeyCrew Media today announced a content partnership with Newsworthy.ai, bringing KeyCrew's expert-sourced real estate journalism to the company's Metro Wire network of 12 metropolitan news sites covering the largest housing markets in the United States. In each of those markets, readers, agents, brokers, and investors now have access to reporting built on first-person interviews with practitioners working in that same city. The Metro Wire network consists of dozens of digital news sites that Newsworthy.ai owns and operates across the United States. Through this partnership, KeyCrew market reporting will be immediately available on sites covering New York Tri-State, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Miami, Philadelphia, Phoenix, San Diego, San Francisco Bay Area, and Washington, D.C. KeyCrew coverage is already running on the network. “Local real estate coverage has been gutted almost everywhere, and what's left is mostly AI-spun listing data and syndicated national headlines," said Steve Marcinuk, Co-Founder and CEO of KeyCrew Media. "We built KeyCrew to replace that with something real: reporting sourced directly from the agents, brokers, and developers actually working these markets. Partnering with Newsworthy.ai lets us bring that coverage to the outlets and readers who want it most, in the country's biggest real estate markets.” "KeyCrew is producing exactly the kind of city-level real estate reporting our readers want and that almost nobody else is doing at scale," said Mark Willaman, Founder of Newsworthy.ai. "It gives these sites real depth of coverage in a media vertical that is hard to cover for many newsrooms." The two companies expect to expand the partnership as the Metro Wire network grows, with additional markets under consideration for later this year. About KeyCrew Media KeyCrew is an expert-first real estate media company. The company conducts hundreds of live interviews every month with the operators and experts who shape local markets. The editorial staff turns those conversations into original reporting published, syndicated, and amplified across hundreds of markets.

Round Rock / Waco, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Aug 31, 2026 @ 8:00 AM Central — Bryan Eisenberg, New York Times bestselling author and one of the original architects of digital marketing, will deliver the opening keynote at the inaugural YOU x AI Summit on September 12, 2026 at The Performing Arts Community Center (The PACC) in Waco, Texas. His session, "Before the Algorithm, There Was Your Story. That Hasn't Changed," opens a one-day event built around a premise Eisenberg has spent thirty years proving in practice: technology changes the delivery mechanism. It has never changed what makes a customer decide to trust you. Starting in the late 1990s, Eisenberg and his brother Jeffrey published over two million words on digital persuasion, predating most of today's AI models. Together they coined the term conversion rate optimization and wrote a string of bestsellers, including the New York Times bestsellers Call to Action and Waiting for Your Cat to Bark, along with Be Like Amazon, The Rice and Beans Millionaire, and their newest release, I Think I Swallowed An Elephant. Bryan also founded the Web Analytics Association, now the Digital Analytics Association. "In all persuasive momentum, there are two forces you work on: reducing friction and increasing motivation," Eisenberg said. "Today there is zero friction to produce content. You can generate text, images, and video automatically. Which means the only force left is motivation, and motivation is the human connection. That trust only happens between real humans." Eisenberg recently illustrated the idea with a simple comparison he now uses with clients: AI behaves like a nervous system. It connects everything, carries the signal, and speeds up every reaction in a business. What it does not do is decide where the business is going, what it believes, or who it is. Those decisions still belong to the brain, the heart, and the gut of the people running it. Integrating AI into a business with a clear direction accelerates growth, while in a directionless business, it amplifies inefficiencies. "The more you are you, the better the AI is actually going to be," Eisenberg said. "It's you with the AI, not the AI instead of you." For Eisenberg, this principle is practical and proven. From his home base in Round Rock, he chairs the Round Rock Chamber of Commerce Ambassador program, which he has grown from 21 ambassadors to its maximum capacity of 50, and hosts the Rock Solid: Round Rock Business Leaders podcast, which tells the story of one of the fastest-growing counties in the country through the people building it. He now uses AI to extend the reach of those local stories, cutting hours of production work each week while keeping human judgment at the center of every decision. "Bryan and Jeffrey Eisenberg were writing the playbook for digital marketing when most of us were still figuring out email," said Fernando Labastida, founder of Viral Genius Institute and co-host of the summit. "Having Bryan open the YOU x AI Summit is a statement about what this event is: practitioners who have lived through every technology wave, showing you how to make this one yours." The YOU x AI Summit, hosted by Rogue Media Network and Viral Genius Institute, is built on the premise that AI should amplify human ingenuity, not replace it. The one-day event features 14 speakers, 8 hands-on workshops, and an AI showcase, and is expected to draw roughly 200 entrepreneurs, small business owners, creators, educators, nonprofit leaders, and professionals from across Texas. The YOU x AI Summit takes place Saturday, September 12, 2026, at The Performing Arts Community Center (The PACC) in Waco, Texas. Registration and details are available at youxai.live. About Bryan Eisenberg Bryan Eisenberg is a Wall Street Journal, New York Times, USA Today, and BusinessWeek bestselling author, keynote speaker, and pioneer of conversion rate optimization and Persuasion Architecture. With his brother Jeffrey, he has authored eleven bestselling books, including Call to Action, Waiting for Your Cat to Bark, Be Like Amazon, The Rice and Beans Millionaire, and I Think I Swallowed An Elephant. He is the founder of the Web Analytics Association, co-owns A Place At Home North Austin with his wife Stacey, chairs the Round Rock Chamber of Commerce Ambassador program (grown from 21 members to its maximum of 50), and hosts the Rock Solid: Round Rock Business Leaders podcast. Through BuyerLegends, he aids businesses in being discovered, comprehended, and preferred by both human customers and AI systems that influence purchasing decisions. More at bryaneisenberg.com.

Rotterdam, Netherlands (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Aug 31, 2026 @ 6:00 AM Central — Episode 1899 of the No Agenda Show, titled "Asymmetric Intimacy," published August 30, 2026, features host Adam Curry broadcasting from Rotterdam, the Netherlands, with special guest Jason Calacanis of the All In podcast filling in for the late John C. Dvorak. The conversation ranges from President Trump's newly announced 65-billion-barrel Venezuela oil deal to open-source artificial intelligence, the Meta child-safety settlement, and the ranching economics behind Trump's decision to suspend tariffs on imported ground beef ahead of the midterm elections. Curry and Calacanis expertly deconstruct a packed news cycle with their signature analytical style. Topics include: Trump's Venezuela oil announcement, Ted Cruz on Meet the Press, and Ontario Premier Doug Ford's reaction Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's "Operation Economic Outcast" and Iran sanctions targeting UAE cash houses Exploring the rise of Hyperliquid, perpetual futures contracts, and stablecoin-backed U.S. Treasuries. Nvidia's acquisition of Hugging Face and the shift to verticalized small language models The Meta $18 billion multistate settlement over teen platform harms Glenn Beck's Oval Office interview on beef processing cartels JBS, Tyson, Cargill and National Beef Calacanis, a longtime Silicon Valley investor and early Uber backer now based in the Texas Hill Country, credits Curry directly for the medium itself. "You created podcasting with Dave Winer," Calacanis tells Curry, adding that he recently pressed Spotify to adopt Podcasting 2.0 standards. Curry, in turn, introduces a new phrase for the host-listener bond: "It's parasocial is the fancy word for it, and I call it like asymmetrical intimacy. And they just think, wow, J. Cal, I'm your buddy, because you're in people's ears." This exchange inspires the episode's title, 'Asymmetric Intimacy.' The pair dig into the mechanics behind headline stories. Calacanis argues that Trump is running the 1890 McKinley tariff playbook against Canada, citing Chrystia Freeland's CNBC appearance with Joe Kernen and Prime Minister Mark Carney's collapsed trade talks. On AI, Calacanis warns that Anthropic and OpenAI are pursuing regulatory capture while open-source models from Z.AI's GLM and Nvidia's Nemotron close the gap. On homelessness, he draws on his experience watching San Francisco and Austin unravel, insisting the crisis is driven by fentanyl and methamphetamine, not housing. Curry counters on the Iran war, defending Bessent's strategy to break the London-centered oil finance system and cut IRGC funding. About No Agenda Show No Agenda is a long-running, listener-supported podcast hosted by Adam Curry and the late John C. Dvorak that takes a skeptical, independent look at mainstream media, politics, culture, and the forces shaping the daily news cycle. Known for its sharp commentary, humor, and value-for-value model, the show deconstructs how stories are framed, amplified, or ignored across news outlets, government messaging, and tech platforms.

Boca Raton, Florida (Newsworthy.ai) Monday Aug 31, 2026 @ 5:00 AM Eastern — DuLac Farmaceutici is accelerating its push into the U.S. market, announcing that its Italian-developed products are now available through OneLavi.com as the company prepares to participate in the 2026 ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session, September 14-17 in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. The two developments represent important steps in DuLac's strategy to significantly expand its presence in the United States. After establishing consumer demand through Amazon U.S., the Italian pharmaceutical company is adding a new e-commerce channel while preparing to introduce its brand and product portfolio to major U.S. retailers participating at ECRM. A Major Push into the U.S. Market DuLac sees the United States as a significant long-term growth market and is approaching its expansion accordingly. Rather than relying on a single sales channel, the company is building a broader U.S. presence that combines established Amazon demand, expanded e-commerce availability through OneLavi, and direct engagement with retailers and distribution partners. "ECRM comes at an important time for DuLac because we are making a major commitment to the U.S. market," said Gabriele Bollani, Founder and CEO of DuLac Farmaceutici. "Amazon has demonstrated that American consumers are responding to our products, OneLavi gives us another important U.S. channel, and now we are ready to introduce DuLac to major retailers and build the partnerships that can take our expansion to the next level." From Amazon Success to Broader Distribution DuLac enters this next phase with an established base of U.S. consumer demand. Consumer response on Amazon continues to underscore DuLac's growing presence in the U.S. market, with Arnica Gel 98% earning more than 13,000 customer reviews and an average 4.5-star rating, while the company's Dinaven line has received more than 4,000 customer reviews and maintains an average 4.6-star rating. The addition of OneLavi represents the next step in broadening that footprint. DuLac products are now available to OneLavi customers, giving the company another platform through which to introduce its Made in Italy portfolio to American consumers. ECRM Opens the Next Door DuLac's participation at ECRM adds an important business-to-business dimension to the company's U.S. expansion. During the 2026 ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session, DuLac will participate in scheduled meetings with buyers representing major health, specialty, food, drug, and mass retail channels, providing an opportunity to introduce the company's Italian-developed product portfolio, pharmaceutical heritage, and advanced manufacturing capabilities to potential U.S. retail partners. Among the portfolio DuLac will highlight are its high-concentration Arnica Gel 98% range and the Dinaven and Diosmin lines. For DuLac, the objective extends beyond gaining additional points of distribution. The company is using ECRM to establish relationships that can support a much larger and more diversified U.S. retail presence as it moves forward with its national expansion strategy. Bringing Italian Pharmaceutical Innovation to U.S. Retail DuLac brings more than 30 years of pharmaceutical industry expertise and pharmacy-channel experience in Italy to its U.S. expansion. The company's product development and manufacturing capabilities include its proprietary Arnica Montana Arricchita™ project, indoor vertical farming, micronized Diosmin MPFF technology, solvent-free Supercritical CO₂ Extraction, and manufacturing under internationally recognized GMP and ISO quality frameworks. This combination of Italian pharmaceutical heritage, research, advanced production technologies, established Amazon consumer demand, and growing U.S. distribution provides the foundation for DuLac's next stage of growth. Building a National U.S. Presence With Amazon already established, OneLavi now live, and scheduled meetings with major retail buyers planned through ECRM, DuLac is moving from initial U.S. market development toward a broader national expansion strategy. The company's goal is to build a diversified U.S. presence across e-commerce, retail, wholesale, and other distribution channels while introducing more American consumers to the DuLac brand and its Italian-developed product portfolio. About DuLac Farmaceutici DuLac Farmaceutici is an Italian wellness company specializing in dermocosmetic, recovery-focused, and circulation-support products developed through pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing standards. Built on more than 30 years of pharmaceutical industry expertise, the company combines botanical innovation, advanced extraction technologies, and modern manufacturing to create wellness solutions designed for active lifestyles and everyday well-being. DuLac products are developed and manufactured in Italy using rigorous quality and sustainability standards.

Fort Lauderdale, FL (Newsworthy.ai) Friday Aug 28, 2026 @ 10:00 AM Eastern — Episode 815 of DH Unplugged, titled 'Stupid Does Stupid', hosted by Andrew Horowitz and JC Dvorak, delivers a sharp-tongued audit of what the hosts call the five dumbest moves currently shaking financial markets. Published August 25, 2026, the episode arrives days before NVIDIA's closely watched earnings report and the Jackson Hole economic symposium, framing a week in which Treasury maneuvers, tariff reversals, and a weakening U.S. dollar are colliding with sky-high AI expectations. Horowitz and Dvorak argue investors are being sold a debasement narrative that does not survive close inspection. The rundown moves briskly through interconnected threads listeners can expect: Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's expanded long-bond buybacks, which the hosts dub 'Bessent's Big Bond Blunder' Trump's tariff cut on imported beef and the questions it raises about who actually pays tariffs New Iran sanctions targeting roughly 60 individuals, companies, and vessels under 'Operation Economic Outcast' Bitcoin's rip past $80,000 and gold's move on a softer dollar Walmart's consumer warning, with U.S. comparable sales up just 2.6% against roughly 3% inflation The hosts refuse to take the debasement trade at face value. 'There is no quantitative easing going on,' Horowitz says. 'The dollar is down, but not that much. The fact is that everybody just wants to buy it. This is an excuse.' Dvorak pushes back with a counterpoint on messaging: if retail buyers believe the story, image control is working, even if rates snapped right back after Bessent's Friday follow-up hinting the $4 billion monthly pace could climb higher. They also flag unusual TLT inflows on August 18, the day before the announcement, calling it 'information leakage,' not luck. Deeper in, Dvorak brings on-the-ground detail from his consulting work with Walmart's data science team, arguing the retailer's predictive models make its consumer caution credible, not corporate spin. He notes Costco's earlier warning about shoppers swapping chicken for tuna as a recession tell. On NVIDIA, the hosts spotlight Kingslide Works, the Taiwanese maker of roughly 70% of data center rack slides, up about 400% in a year, as an early indicator ahead of the Ultra Rubin chip cycle. They also dig into Venezuelan oil refining bottlenecks, strategic petroleum reserves near 1983 levels, salt-cavern integrity risks in Texas and Louisiana, and China's 90% share of Iranian oil imports. About DH Unplugged DH Unplugged is a weekly investing and markets podcast hosted by Andrew Horowitz and John C. Dvorak, blending Fed watching, earnings analysis, commodities, tech, and offbeat cultural riffs in a skeptical, humorous, unfiltered style.

Arlington, TX (Newsworthy.ai) Friday Aug 28, 2026 @ 10:00 AM Eastern — The latest episode of You Should Know, titled Assessing Skills One at a Time Is Costing You Better Hires, published August 26, 2026 and hosted by William Tincup, features Assaf Bar-Moshe, Chief of Research and Development Officer at HiringBranch. The Montreal-based assessment company has released new research challenging a common practice in pre-hire evaluation: reporting empathy, acknowledgment, active listening, and reassurance as isolated scores. The conversation lands as employers rethink how frontline talent, from customer service reps to sales agents to retail associates, is measured against the realities of live customer interactions. Bar-Moshe walks listeners through HiringBranch's open-ended, voice-and-writing assessment design and the study behind the headline. Key threads include: Why single-skill scoring produces only moderate correlation with human annotators, while a combined proprietary model produces much stronger correlations. The four pillars of customer service HiringBranch measures: acknowledgment, reassurance through positive language, empathy, and active listening. How job descriptions are translated into conversation flows and scenario-based assessments calibrated per client, region, and role. The discussion is grounded in specific customer-facing moments. Tincup recounts a retail confrontation over mispriced broccoli that turned on diplomacy rather than policy, while Bar-Moshe frames the research finding in plain language. "If a candidate can express empathy, but is unable to solve the issue correctly or to comprehend the issue correctly or to reassure the customer, then this empathy is nice, but it's actually useless," Bar-Moshe said. He adds that HiringBranch takes a linguistic rather than personality-based approach, describing the method as a "sociopragmatic analysis of the words that the candidate is actually saying." Bar-Moshe, a trained linguist, explains that HiringBranch's team of IO psychologists and linguists uses years of textual data to build machine learning models that predict empathy, acknowledgment, and related skills, then validates those predictions against on-the-job performance months after hire. Calibrations differ by client, industry, and even geography, with regional variation across markets like Vancouver, Toronto, and Montreal shaping different scoring weights for the same role. He also previews a self-serve capability in development that would let hiring managers build assessments from a library of conversation flows and skills, reducing reliance on weak or generic job descriptions. The full study will appear under the AI research tab on the HiringBranch website. About You Should Know You Should Know, part of the WRKdefined Podcast Network based in Arlington, Texas, is co-hosted by Ryan Leary and William Tincup and reaches more than 3.9 million verified listeners each month. The show tackles pivotal leadership challenges, workforce dynamics, career mobility, and the impact of technology on hiring.

Fredericksburg, Texas (Newsworthy.ai) Friday Aug 28, 2026 @ 9:00 AM Central — On August 27, 2026, Adam Curry released Episode 1898 of the No Agenda Show, titled 'Goofy Foot,' marking a first in the program's history: a co-host seated across the desk in the same studio. Curry welcomed Matt Long, host of The Matt Long Show on Hill Country Patriot FM out of Kerrville, Texas, longtime Fredericksburg No Agenda meetup organizer, and a veteran Ben Franklin character actor. The pair tackled the week's most consequential news thread, the U.S. Supreme Court's emergency order allowing the Trump administration to proceed with restrictions on mail-in voting ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. The episode moves through a dense slate of media deconstruction. Topics include the 6-3 Supreme Court ruling on the March 2026 executive order directing the U.S. Postal Service and Department of Homeland Security to build a citizenship-based voter database, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's launch of 'Operation Economic Outcast' targeting Iran, CIA Director John Ratcliffe's unannounced trip to Moscow, President Trump's announcement of 300,000 metric tons of imported ground beef, Canadian Premier Doug Ford's retaliatory tariff threats, and California's new Replacement Tire Efficiency Program approved by the California Energy Commission. Long, who plays Benjamin Franklin at Vacation Liberty School events and Capitol appearances, offered boots-on-the-ground perspective on Texas mail-in ballot rules and the Secretary of State's new postmark guidance. Speaking to Curry's assessment of his radio craft, Long recounted his path from unpaid legislative correspondent to paid host. On election integrity, Long was blunt: 'Mail-in ballots, I think, are probably the most easiest way to steal an election and to get dishonest results.' The two also dissected New York Attorney General Letitia James's 'chaos and confusion' response and Arizona AG Kris Mayes's defense of her state's vote-by-mail system. The conversation ventures well beyond electoral law. Curry plays an audio report from an anonymous regenerative Zoomer rancher in Northwest North Dakota explaining the 11-year cattle market cycle and the divide between 'commodity cowboys' feeding Cheerios to fatten stock and regenerative operators like Cole at KNC. Other threads include Don Huffines and the Epstein ranch purchase, Nvidia's reported acquisition of Hugging Face, OpenAI Chief Global Affairs Officer Chris Lehane's push for regulation of open-source models, the H-1B visa fee hike to $103,000, State Department revocation of B-1 and B-2 visas, the unraveling Eurovision Song Contest amid Israel boycotts, and a heartfelt tribute to Dolly Parton and Tim Curry. About No Agenda Show No Agenda is a long-running, listener-supported podcast hosted by Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak that takes a skeptical, independent look at mainstream media, politics, culture, and the forces shaping the daily news cycle. Known for its sharp commentary, humor, and 'media deconstruction' approach, the show examines how stories are framed, repeated, amplified, or ignored.

Ideal For Custom streaming applications Mobile and web platforms Scalable software products Enterprise application development Market Demand for Video Streaming Apps The demand for video streaming continues to be influenced by changing viewing habits, connected devices, creator-led content, live entertainment, and direct-to-consumer platforms. Streaming businesses are also moving beyond basic video playback. Features such as personalized recommendations, AI-based search, interactive live sessions, targeted advertising, multilingual content, and cross-device continuity are becoming increasingly important. For developers, this means a modern streaming application needs more than an attractive interface. The underlying architecture must support reliable video delivery, content management, user authentication, analytics, payments, security, and scalability. Key Takeaways Video streaming apps now require mobile, web, and connected-TV compatibility. Adaptive streaming is important for maintaining playback quality across different networks. AI can improve recommendations, search, subtitles, moderation, and content discovery. Subscription, advertising, pay-per-view, and hybrid monetization models can be integrated. Security and content protection should be considered from the beginning of development. The right technology partner should match the project's scale and technical requirements. Importance of Choosing the Right Development Company Selecting a development company affects more than the initial application launch. A streaming platform needs continuous optimization because audience numbers, content libraries, devices, and bandwidth requirements can change over time. An experienced partner can help with architecture planning, CDN integration, cloud infrastructure, video encoding, UI/UX, backend development, analytics, testing, and post-launch improvements. This becomes especially important for platforms expecting high traffic or supporting both live and on-demand content. Benefits of Selecting the Right Partner The right development partner can provide: Better scalability: Architecture can be planned for increasing viewers and content. Improved user experience: Fast navigation, responsive players, and personalized recommendations can improve engagement. Stronger security: Authentication, access control, encryption, and content protection can reduce risks. Flexible monetization: Subscription, advertising, pay-per-view, and hybrid models can be supported. Long-term maintenance: Regular updates and performance improvements help the application remain competitive. Importance of Selecting the Right Partner Businesses should compare companies based on actual project requirements rather than rankings alone. Factors such as streaming technology experience, previous work, cloud expertise, development methodology, communication process, security practices, testing capabilities, and post-launch support should be evaluated. The development partner should also understand whether the application is primarily VOD, live streaming, social streaming, educational video, sports streaming, corporate video, or a broader OTT platform. Each category has different technical and user-experience requirements. FAQs 1. What is a video streaming app development company?
