| 8/25/26 | Pat Bosch - Design Director & Principal, Perkins&Will | This week the glasses held Christophe Mignon ADN, the stories went global, and our guest casually mentioned designing buildings in 18 countries like the rest of us mention brunch plans. Pat Bosch, Design Director and Principal of Perkins&Will's Miami studio, joined us for a conversation that starts in Havana and somehow ends up in Riyadh, Rio, and Accra before landing back home in Miami. Pat grew up the only child of two architects, spending her childhood in her mother's office and on con... | 1h 48m 59s | ||||||
| 8/20/26 | Robert Given - Vice Chairman, CBRE | This week we sit down with Robert Given, the most decorated multifamily and land broker South Florida has ever produced. Over 36 years he has closed more than a thousand projects, moved north of 300,000 apartment units, and been named the Daily Business Review's Deal Maker of the Year fifteen times. He is also the man who sold a single Miami acre for a hundred million dollars, still the record for the most expensive dirt in the city. But this is a biography show, so we go back way further tha... | 1h 29m 46s | ||||||
| 8/12/26 | Matthew Vander Werff, Founding Partner, MVW Partners | Long before Little River was landing on lists of the coolest neighborhoods on earth, Matthew Vander Werff was quietly buying it, nearly 80 properties at a time when the rest of Miami was still fighting over Wynwood. This week the Founding Principal of MVW Partners joins us to trace the whole journey: an Iowa upbringing, a detour through the film and hospitality worlds, a Columbia real estate degree earned at the worst possible moment in 2007, and the decade of patient assemblage that turned a... | 1h 06m 34s | ||||||
| 8/4/26 | Lee Brian Schrager, Founder - South Beach Wine & Food Festival | Some guests build buildings. This one built an appetite for a whole city. Lee Brian Schrager sat down with us at Buró over Pimm's Cups and took us all the way back, to Massapequa, Long Island, where he was bagging Chinese takeout on weekend nights by the age of ten. His father had left the garment business, retired young, moved to Florida, and opened restaurants with his brother that, in Lee's own words, did everything wrong and lost a lot of money. Lee has spent a career doing the opposite. ... | 1h 16m 25s | ||||||
| 7/29/26 | Q2 2026 Market Update with Anthony Graziano & Juan Arias | The quarterly market update is back, and this one had no shortage of material. Juan Arias, National Director of U.S. Industrial Analytics at CoStar Group, and Anthony Graziano, Chairman and CEO of Integra Realty Resources, returned to Buró with cocktails in hand to make sense of a quarter that gave everyone whiplash. We started where the whole world started this quarter: the Strait of Hormuz. Juan and Anthony walked us through what the oil shock actually did on the ground, from freight and lo... | 1h 59m 35s | ||||||
| 7/21/26 | Jose Gonzalez - President, GLC Real Estate | Jose Gonzalez was supposed to be a lawyer. Then Hurricane Andrew hit South Florida in 1992, and the entry-level job he'd taken at Miami-Dade's Building and Zoning Department to pay his way through FIU turned into a career. He learned construction and its regulatory side on his feet, in the middle of a region rebuilding itself. At 22, when most of his peers were collecting diplomas, Armando Codina recruited him to work on Dolphin Mall. He never really left that world. When Codina Group merged ... | 1h 57m 21s | ||||||
| 7/14/26 | Nicole Shiman - Managing Director, EDENS | Nicole Shiman is Managing Director and Regional Head of EDENS Florida, where she oversees one of the most important open-air retail portfolios in the state and leads all new acquisition and development activity, from Fifth & Alton on South Beach to Downtown Palm Beach Gardens. She joined us over a Maestro Dobel 50 Cristalino Paloma, and the conversation went down just as smooth. We trace her path from growing up in Toronto to the Richard Ivey School of Business, consulting at BCG in Toron... | 1h 20m 44s | ||||||
| 7/7/26 | Andy Ansin, CEO, Sunbeam Properties | Andy Ansin is the third generation of one of South Florida's most enduring families. His grandfather Sidney founded Sunbeam in 1953. His father Ed turned WSVN-Channel 7 into a Miami institution and built the Miramar Park of Commerce. Now, as CEO of Sunbeam Properties and owner of WSVN, Andy is writing the next chapter at a pace that feels a lot like the newsroom he grew up in. Over a cocktail, we trace the whole arc: a Miami Beach kid running camera cable in the WSVN newsroom as a teenager, c... | 1h 22m 03s | ||||||
| 6/29/26 | Camilo Miguel Jr. - Founder & CEO, Mast Capital | Camilo Miguel Jr. is the Founder and CEO of Mast Capital, a vertically integrated real estate investment and development firm he established in 2006. He got his start in 2004 when industry acquaintances took him under their wing on his first project — an experience that instilled a strong belief in mentorship that he actively pays forward today. Before launching Mast Capital, Miguel founded Vertica Group, a land investment and strategic development firm, and co-founded Clear Title Group, a re... | 1h 18m 40s | ||||||
| 6/17/26 | Eddy Arriola - Founder & CEO, Arriola & Co. | We sat down with Eddy Arriola at Büro over gin and tonics for a conversation about building, scaling, and trust. Eddy founded Apollo Bank during the financial crisis and grew it into one of the Southeast's most respected banks before a successful sale in 2022. He's served on boards across banking, fintech, and healthcare, and was appointed by the president and confirmed by the US Senate as chairman of the Inter-American Foundation, serving under three administrations. Today he coaches CEOs th... | 1h 53m 13s | ||||||

| 4/29/26 | Moishe Mana - Founder and Chairman, Mana Common | In this episode, we sit down with Moishe Mana, one of the most unconventional and visionary developers shaping Miami today.

That hustle became the foundation for a sprawling business empire spanning logistics, media, art, and real estate. We get into his early days in New York, identif... | 1h 35m 16s | ||||||
