In this final REIA Radio episode of the current run, Ted Kaasch and Owen Dashner share a big update on what’s next for the podcast. After 300 episodes, they’re wrapping this chapter and getting ready to launch something new: The Kaasch & Dash Show.

Ted and Owen talk about the vision behind the rebrand, why they want to expand beyond just real estate, and how the next season will also feature business owners, entrepreneurs, visionaries, and people making moves in their own lane. Real estate will still be a big part of the conversation, but the new format will open the door to even more discussions around business, growth, leadership, and life.

They also talk about keeping some fan-favorite segments, possibly revamping others, and putting a much bigger focus on their YouTube channel moving forward. From behind-the-scenes content to clips from meetups, luncheons, and live events, they’re looking to bring even more value in a new way.

This episode is a sendoff, a thank you, and a preview of what’s coming next.

In this episode of REIA Radio, Ted Kaasch and Owen Dashner sit down with Mike Bjork for a wide-ranging conversation on real estate, entrepreneurship, and the fast-moving world of AI.

Mike shares his unexpected path into real estate, from his background in the fire department to building a high-producing real estate team that surpassed $100 million in volume by year three. He talks about what it was like hitting major goals earlier than expected, why that left him looking for the next challenge, and how that search led him deep into artificial intelligence.

The conversation dives into how Mike used Zillow at a high level, what he learned from scaling fast, lessons from launching a title company, and how he now views AI as more than just a time-saver. Instead, he sees it as a tool that can create leverage, improve systems, and even generate new income opportunities inside and outside of real estate.

They also get into some of the personal side of Mike’s story, including his struggles with dyslexia, learning how to study later in life, and how his wife played a major role in helping him see bigger possibilities for himself. On top of the business talk, the episode has plenty of laughs, side stories, and the kind of back-and-forth that makes REIA Radio feel real.

Whether you’re an agent, investor, entrepreneur, or just trying to keep up with where AI is headed, this episode brings a mix of mindset, strategy, and straight-up entertaining conversation.

Listen to Episode 299.2 of REIA Radio and hear how Mike Bjork went from firefighter to high-level real estate producer to AI builder. If this episode gives you a new angle on business, real estate, or technology, share it with someone else who needs to hear it.

In Episode 299, Ted and Owen close out the Real Estate Rundown era with a mix of humor, reflection, and real talk about business, real estate, and what is ahead for the podcast. Ted shares a frustrating city code violation tied to one of his long-held rental properties, which leads into a broader conversation about the realities of owning property over time and the random headaches that come with it.

The episode also takes a fun turn as the guys talk through other topics they could easily build a show around outside of real estate, including Mustangs, fantasy baseball, politics, movies, nightlife, and more. They also get into AI and how tools like Claude can help investors analyze multifamily deals, move faster on underwriting, and spot opportunities in a changing market.

This episode is a mix of looking back, laughing a little, and setting the stage for what is next. Ted and Owen also let listeners know that the next episode will feature their upcoming guest, Mike York.

Listen now, subscribe to REIA Radio, and stay tuned for the next episode featuring Mike York.
