Why RV Parks Are An Underrated Asset Class With Robert Preston *Replay*
*This is a previously aired episode* On this week’s episode, Kent is joined by Robert Preston to explore why RV parks are an underrated and increasingly compelling real estate asset class. Robert shares his journey from single-family flips to multifamily, mobile home parks, and ultimately RV parks, explaining how lower competition, strong cash flow, and operational upside drew him into the space. The conversation dives into seasonality, Sun Belt market selection, and how small operational changes—like dynamic pricing and improved amenities—can drive outsized returns. Robert also breaks down the key barriers to entry, including manage...

On the Affordable Housing & Real Estate Investing Podcast, the best podcast for affordable housing investments hosted by Kent Fai He, architect-developer Matt Baran returns with a tactical, step-by-step site analysis playbook: how to run a city eligibility checklist (zoning, height, setbacks), screen for fire/flood risk, spot housing-element traps that trigger deed-restricted units, and decide between SB 1123/684, SB9, or ADU pathways—before you ever call a seller.

#1630: Keiichi Matsuda on Metaphors for AI Agents in XR User Experience: From Omniscient Gods to Animistic Familiars
Here's my interview with Keiichi Matsuda, Designer and Director of Liquid City, that was conducted on Thursday, June 12, 2025 at Augmented World Expo in Long Beach, CA. In the introduction, I read through Matsuda's essay titled "Gods" (also uploaded here) where he explores the idea that AI should be more like pets and polytheistic and animistic familiars rather than the more monotheistic approach where there's one true AI God represented by one of Big Tech's omniscient and all-powerful AI systems. This approach has lead Matsuda to developing a system of what he calls "parabrains" that is an interface for AI agents...

In a deeply impactful conversation, Dr. Kent Corso and Ashley Bright examine the critical intersection of youth mental health, community resources, and suicide prevention in Central Wyoming.

Recently I read "The Wolverine Way", by Douglas Chadwick. It's a book from 2012 that really dives into the lives of wolverines, a small mammal with a cantankerous reputation that the US Fish and Wildlife Service late last year announced would be a threatened species. The book is a fascinating biography, if you will, of wolverines. Chadwick has an engaging writing style and Glacier National Park provides a fascinating backdrop for the story, two things that keep the story flowing. One thing that he mentions that struck me is how important Glacier National Park is for the wolverines survival. H...

Tiny urban parks provide Sydney residents with much-needed green space
In Sydney, tiny urban parks provide local residents with much-needed green space amidst the hustle and bustle of city life. These tiny inner-city parks are called “pocket parks” which are both great for the environment and the mental well-being of residents. The City of Sydney says there are approximately 400 parks of various sizes, from pocket to parklands, within its urban area. With dwellings encroaching more and more on nature, it can sometimes be hard for city residents to find a space where they can relax, have fun, or socialize outdoors. Pocket parks offer a solution to that issue. “Essentially the real v...
