Forget dusty basements and canned beans—today’s bunkers are decked out with bowling alleys, hydroponic gardens, golf simulators, and even Monaco F1 replica tracks for the kids. Yes, seriously.
 
In this episode, we dig into the underground world (literally) of billionaire bunkers.

Messi May Be Carrying More Than Just Miami

After over two years of silence, MLS has finally released its viewership numbers from the Apple TV deal… and well, it’s not quite the victory parade they’re hoping for.
 
In this episode, I dive deep into the 120,000 “unique viewers per match” claim, why that stat might be misleading, and what it really says about the health of soccer’s visibility in the U.S.
 
We break down the lack of industry-standard metrics (Apple doesn’t use Nielsen), Commissioner Don Garber’s vague defense of the data, and the growing suspicion that Inter Miami and Messi may be shouldering the entire league’s broadcast success.
 
The big question: is MLS thriving behind a paywall—or quietly stalling?
 
Oh, and if you’re wondering why USL might be sneaking into the spotlight, we touch on that too.

Zillow’s Forecast Shocker: Where Home Prices Are Really Headed in 2025

Zillow just updated its 12-month home price forecast for over 400 U.S. markets—and let’s just say, it’s not all sunshine and appreciation. In this episode, I break down Zillow’s national outlook for a -2.0% price drop in 2025, the regional winners like Atlantic City and Knoxville, and the big losers (Louisiana, I’m looking at you).
 
We’ll talk about what’s driving the shift—think affordability fatigue, rising active inventory, and mortgage rate limbo—and what it means for buyers, sellers, and investors trying to read the tea leaves.
 
I also get personal about why I think Zillow’s model still struggles with local nuance—and why South Florida, for example, may not be behaving the way their models assume. If you're in real estate, this forecast isn't just data—it’s strategy fuel.

Why Alonzo Mourning’s New Project Could Be a Game-Changer for Seniors

🏀 Alonzo Mourning isn’t just a Miami Heat legend—he’s now making massive plays off the court too.
 
In this episode, we dive into a new $37.4 million senior housing project that just opened on Florida’s Gulf Coast: Astoria on 9th, a 120-unit community aimed at providing affordable housing for older adults in Bradenton .
 
This isn’t just another development—it’s the fourth Bradenton project from Housing Trust Group, but their first dedicated to seniors.
 
And thanks to Mourning’s nonprofit, AM Affordable Housing, it’s loaded with features that go beyond just four walls and a roof:
Units priced between $322 and $1,316/month, significantly below local averages
Eligibility for seniors aged 62+ with low income based on HUD standards
On-site amenities like a clubroom, cyber café, fitness center, dog park, and support services like literacy training, laundry help, and even grocery assistance 
 
It’s a powerful reminder that real legacy isn’t just what you do on the court—it’s what you build after the buzzer.
 
And with Florida’s aging population growing fast, this could be the blueprint for senior housing in the future.
