When you are lucky to know someone professionally for nearly 30 years, a bond gets formed. In the case of Kevin and Jim Gauthier, anyone can see how strong their relationship is when they get together. Their openness and comfort with one another really comes through in this wonderful conversation from the Boiler Room. And just wait until you hear them harmonize!

In December of 2024 we assembled a panel of principles—builder, interior designer, and landscape architect, to go deep on the topic of company culture. Tiffany LeBlanc contributed a lot to the discussion, from her position as the founder of Tiffany LeBlanc Design. She is a great podcast guest in this follow-up chat. Her combination of high emotional and social intelligence, along with her experience, allows her to be insightful, hilarious, and almost-but-never inappropriate.

Last November Michael Oh, founder and president of TSP Smart Spaces, gave a presentation in the Boiler Room titled, “Beyond AI: Visioning Design & Construction in 2030.” We had Michael back to the Boiler Room to follow up with questions, which we aired last week in Episode 3 of the KCB Boiler Room Podcast. 

Of all the panels we’ve hosted, this one on artificial intelligence and predicting the future felt like the one that was most in need of a follow up, especially because the speaker is one of the most down-to-earth while simultaneously brilliant and charming people you’ll ever come across, Michael Oh, founder and president of TSP Smart Spaces.

Two years after a panel we hosted about why you should work with interior designers, we invited panelist and interior designer Kristen Rivoli back to the Boiler Room to reminisce, as well as to check in about how things have changed.
