In This Episode In this episode of Redefining Tomorrow, Lawrence Williams joins David Goldsmith for a wide-ranging conversation about curiosity, career reinvention, and the unexpected paths that connect government, telecommunications, commercial space, autonomous aviation, and artificial intelligence. Rather than following a carefully planned career, Lawrence describes how each opportunity built upon the last—from Capitol Hill and the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, to helping shape satellite communications, becoming one of SpaceX's earliest executives, supporting Tesla during its formative years, advancing life-saving drone delivery with Zipline, and now applying AI, computer vision, and sensor fusion to the future of mobility. Along the way, the discussion explores innovation, entrepreneurship, public policy, commercial space, autonomous systems, leadership, and why remaining curious often opens doors that careful planning alone never could. Episode Outlines How curiosity shaped an unexpected career Building a foundation in government and public policy The Information Superhighway and the early telecommunications revolution Helping build commercial space during SpaceX's formative years Working with NASA, the Department of Defense, and Washington Lessons from helping disruptive technologies become real businesses Zipline and using autonomous aircraft to save lives Artificial intelligence, computer vision, and the future of mobility Why regulation and innovation must evolve together Connecting purpose, opportunity, and lifelong learning Biography of the Guest Lawrence Williams has spent much of his career working at the intersection of emerging technology, government, entrepreneurship, and the challenge of turning ambitious ideas into businesses and systems that create real-world impact. His career began in Washington, D.C., where he served as a legislative assistant to U.S. Representative Ray Thornton on the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology. He later became a Special Assistant to the Administrator of the National Telecommunications and Information Administration and served on a Presidential Transition Team supporting the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy. Williams went on to become Vice President of International and Government Affairs for Teledesic, the satellite communications venture backed by Craig McCaw and Bill Gates, before serving as Senior Vice President of Business Development at ICO Global Communications. He subsequently joined SpaceX as one of its earliest executives, serving as Vice President for Strategic Relations, where he helped the company navigate NASA, the U.S. Department of Defense, Washington, and the emerging commercial space marketplace during its transformation from a startup into a major aerospace company. He also served as an advisor to Tesla Motors. Following SpaceX, Williams founded Capture10 and later helped lead global market development for Zipline, whose autonomous aircraft deliver blood, medicines, vaccines, and other essential medical supplies to remote communities around the world. He later founded Merlin Mobility, applying artificial intelligence, computer vision, and sensor fusion to improve vehicle safety and accessibility. Across government, telecommunications, commercial space, autonomous aviation, and mobility, a common thread runs through Williams' career: working where emerging technologies intersect with regulation, markets, infrastructure, and opportunities to solve problems at scale. He holds a bachelor's degree from the University of Colorado and an MBA with honors from Georgetown University. This is an episode of the Redefining Tomorrow podcast.

From the business community's perspective, La Crosse needs a city administrator. La Crosse Area Chamber of Commerce CEO Sam Scinta and government relations director Allyson Fergot in studio explaining why 99% of their members support the move — and why they believe operating without one is costing the city more in the long run. HIGHLIGHTS: Overwhelming business support: Why 99% of the Chamber's 540-plus members—from small shops to non-profits and healthcare—back the position. Streamlining development: Why local non-profits told the Chamber they would rather have a city administrator than a new zoning code to cut through red tape. Managing a $74 million operation: Why treating city government like a complex enterprise requires consistent, professional management alongside elected policy makers. Predictability for local business: How a central administrator creates clear processes and stable leadership that outlasts political turnover. Next week the city council begins again its debate on creating the charter ordinance position, beginning with the Judiciary and Administrative Committee (agenda) at 5 p.m. Wednesday. The council did get the same ordinance through by a 7-6 vote back in February, but it needed a supermajority. NOTE: This interview was recorded prior to Mayor Shaundel Washington-Spivey releasing a video opposing the proposed charter ordinance. The mayor argued the specific legislation takes statutory power away from elected leadership and removes the voice of the people from City Hall.

For additional information on this please visit Ohio EPA's website.**********ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE seems to be everywhere. Whether we're using a chatbot, saving files to the cloud, or asking Google a question, we're relying on infrastructure that's largely invisible to us: data centers. As demand for AI and cloud computing accelerates, so do questions about the resources needed to support this digital economy—resources like water!  We were very interested in bringing some light to this hot-button topic in this, our first virtual episode, featuring a panel of guests from Central Ohio, Virginia, and Washington D.C. Dr. Landon Marston is an Associate Professor at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University and holds a Ph.D. in Civil and Environmental Engineering. His research group looks at how and where water is used within the economy as well as the environmental consequences associated with economic production and consumption.  John Newsome is Administrator of the Division of Water at Columbus Water and Power and has served with the city's Department of Public Utilities since 2006. We've asked John to give CWP's perspective on this emerging technology and water demands in Central Ohio, a national hub for data centers.  Also with CWP, Sarah Bloom Anderson serves as Assistant Director of Policy and shares some information from the wastewater side: what happens to the water used to cool the servers in data centers.  And Dr. Peter Grevatt is CEO of the Water Research Foundation, a nonprofit educational organization in Washington D.C. which funds and publishes research on the technology, operation, and management of drinking water, wastewater, water reuse, and stormwater systems. Peter discusses current research projects the WRF is supporting. Utility Perspectives on Data Center SurveyDr. Marston's team at Virginia Tech, in partnership with WRF and the American Water Works Association, is conducting a survey among water and wastewater utilities regarding data centers.

Laurent and Gerard set out to explore one of the biggest ideas emerging alongside the excitement around the SpaceX IPO: datacenters in space. To refuel those satellites emerged the concept of an orbital grid where beams are directed to provide electricity to space crafts, like a gas station in space.  It may sound like science fiction, but it is rapidly becoming a medium-term engineering challenge being tackled by some of the brightest minds of our generation.  One of those pioneers is Andrew Rush, CEO of Star Catcher, a company building what will become the world's first orbital energy grid—a network of satellites capable of wirelessly transmitting power to other spacecraft on demand hundreds of kilometres away.   Andrew is the man for the mission: he previously served on the Technology, Innovation and Engineering Committee of the NASA Advisory Council, helping advise NASA's Administrator, the Office of the Chief Technologist, and its Mission Directorates. Before founding Star Catcher, he successfully built and exited two leading space companies: Redwire and Made-In-Space.  His vision is ambitious: create an "energy-as-a-service" platform for space.  Rather than forcing every satellite to carry increasingly large solar arrays and batteries, spacecraft could draw power from a shared orbital network whenever they need it. If successful, this infrastructure could become as fundamental to the space economy as the electrical grid is on Earth.  Investors are taking notice. Star Catcher has raised approximately $88 million to date, including a recent $65 million Series A led by B Capital, Shield Capital, and Cerberus Ventures. Andrew believes SpaceX's reusable rockets have dramatically reduced the cost of reaching orbit, unleashing an explosion in satellite deployment. The next major bottleneck, however, is no longer launch—it's power. Star Catcher aims to build the energy infrastructure that enables the next generation of space-based industries.  In this conversation, we explore what's real, what's possible, and what's still myth when it comes to energy in space. We also discuss why technologies that once seemed decades away may arrive much sooner than most people expect.   The future of the space economy isn't just about getting to orbit—it's about powering everything that comes next.  Live long and prosper.

Former Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Michael Regan shares his record, his views on what's happening at the EPA now and his connection to North Carolina.

He's worked with the city of La Crosse on many projects. A popular one right now is redeveloping the old Kmart lot. Marvin Wanders, CEO of Three-Sixty Real Estate Solutions, stopped in studio to talk about his experience working with La Crosse and other municipalities in the region, and how he feels about the need for a city administrator position. City administrator is back in front of council during the August cycle, beginning next week with the Judiciary & Administrative Committee. It could be on the City Plan Commission agenda, as well. That one isn't up yet. IN THIS INTERVIEW: Why a City Administrator? How professional management, clear structure, and department alignment impact city growth and $80M budget efficiency. Old Kmart Site Update & Timeline: Where the Copper Rocks project currently stands with the city, what needs to happen with the development agreement, and the timeline for when demolition and site work could potentially start next spring.

This week Mike chats with Roberta Windham, Carroll County Administrator, about her reflections of the job she's held for the past 11 years, and about her retirement plans.

Hawk, who lived in Mill Valley and still keeps a place in Marin, gives a tour of the county along the way, from Sausalito and Mount Tam to Tiburon and Point Reyes, and explains why one of the wealthiest places in America was always likely to turn up in those documents. The student's slideshow, published by the award-winning Redwood Bark, catalogued mentions of Larkspur, Corte Madera, Tiburon, Mill Valley, Novato, Kentfield, and more, with documents backing each claim. Then came the legal threat. A woman named in one slide demanded the post be taken down or she would sue for defamation. Administrators searched her name and found little, but the student had the underlying email from the files. Attorneys reportedly concluded the suit had no legs, and the threat was never carried out. Hawk uses it to talk about press freedom, evolving formats, and how good the reporting was.

With the upcoming Midterm elections and the balance of power in Congress up for grabs, people are concerned that the Trump administration will meddle in election results. On today's show, guest host Tony Castañeda speaks with election expert Stephen Richer, who says we should have confidence in the free and fair elections process that our local election officials oversee.  In Richer's recent article for the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, he reaffirms the 2020 presidential election results in Wisconsin. There were several post-election audits that found no cheating or mass fraud. But Richer's criticism of a Trump supporting group's audit of the 2020 Maricopa County election results earned him the ire of the President and MAGA supporters.  There are real concerns coming from the federal government, from Trump's executive orders on election administration that are held up in the courts to the scaling back of cyber security services that are provided to election administrators.  Richer says that the success and security of primary elections this year is a good sign, and he encourages listeners to get involved as temporary election workers, share facts with their friends and family, and reach out to election administrators if you have concerns. At the end of the day, election officials are your neighbors, and we should be concerned not only by the lack of trust in free and fair elections but by the lack of trust in our communities.  Stephen Richer is a Fellow and Lecturer at the Harvard Kennedy School, Legal Fellow at the Cato Institute, former elected Republican in Maricopa County, and former lawyer. He's also on the board of the Democracy Defenders Action.  Featured image of a ballot machine via Flickr (CC BY-NC-SA 2.0). Did you enjoy this story?

When Tennessee Republicans redrew the state’s congressional maps this past May at the request of President Trump to secure additional seats, critics warned the changes could trigger voter confusion like the fallout from the 2022 gerrymandering effort. During that election cycle, some voters received incorrect ballots or cast votes in the wrong congressional district. But Davidson County election officials say they have taken extra steps to prevent those issues from happening again. Administrator of Elections for the Metro Nashville-Davidson County Election Commission, John D. Richardson, says advances in technology and a detailed verification process have helped ensure voters are assigned to the correct districts. "This time around, we actually created a plan very intentionally going through the map and making sure that each and every voter was geo-marked and then making sure they were in our database. And then going through a six-step process to make sure that those three congressional districts, the 4th, 6th and 7th, are properly mapped in Nashville so that every voter has a home, so they know exactly where to vote on election day. " Last month, the Davidson County Election Commission mailed new canary-yellow voter registration cards to residents, identifying their correct Election Day voting locations.

What if failure isn't the opposite of winning — but the gift that makes it possible? In Part 2 of this two-part conversation, Your Health CEO Matt Staub opens up about the present he gave himself at 40: permission to fail. Then he shows what that looks like when life tests it — walking Jamie through a 2025 that brought prostate cancer, his daughter's surgery, the loss of his father, and professional hardship, and the quiet strength it takes to look back and say, "That was a good try. I'm still here. I'm hard to beat." In this episode, you'll hear: How Matt reframes a loss into a "fall forward" — and the simple habit he uses to do it The agonizing leadership question of when to let someone you care about fail Why accountability, done right, is one of the best gifts you can give a friend The danger of only celebrating big wins — and how complacency quietly creeps in Why the only voice that truly matters is the one inside your own head If you missed Part 1, start there for the full arc. Then settle in here for the deeper, more personal half — and walk away with a new relationship to the losses in your own life.

This week on Face the Nation, America celebrates its 250th birthday. We try to put politics aside and a take look at some of the things that make this nation so unique.Despite record breaking temperatures sweeping across much of the nation, Americans came out over the weekend to honor the country's 250th year of independence. Fireworks, parades, flyovers, and red, white and blue were all on display. We take a look at one thing that is proving difficult to fix, America's immigration system. Two members of Congress who immigrated here, Florida Republican Carlos Gimenez and New York Democrat Adriano Espaillat, will tell us their stories and why immigrants were important in shaping America's past and why they are still important in fortifying America's future. Plus, the final frontier. As America reboots its quest to lead the world in space exploration, we reflect on our history, and take a look at what's ahead with NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman. And, we take look at the pastimes that have dominated American culture. This country is driven by competition, and winning, and few things unite us as much as love of the game. We talk about the changes in college sports, the proving ground for young American athletes, with the head of the NCAA, former Massachusetts governor Charlie Baker.

Fitzhugh Brundage, author of A Fate Worse Than Hell, describes how Union administrator William Hoffman managed Northern prisons with a focus on extreme cost-savings, even diverting ration funds into camp improvements. Meanwhile, the Lieber Code (General Order 100) was drafted to codify humane treatment for POWs and civilians. However, it included a "military necessity" loophole that allowed commanders to bypass these protections in dire situations. The Confederacy denounced this code as illegal window dressing for the Union's conduct during the ongoing conflict. (4)1865 RICHMOND

Bob Zimmerman reports that NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman is streamlining the Artemis program by focusing on a lunar base and leveraging private sector contracts for landers and infrastructure. Meanwhile, the Boeing Starlinerprogram is likely dead following poor performance and the Inspector General's recommendation to halt further funding. (6)1930S IDAHO

A Quick Note to Listeners: Before this week’s interview, Will Parker and Jen Schwanke take some time to answer a listener question. This week’s question is: What would you say is the solution for the current state of decline in U.S. schools? Listen in to hear their response! Meet Paden Morris: Paden Morris serves as principal of Tyler Consolidated High School in Tyler County, West Virginia, where he has led for the past five years. Known for his steady leadership, Paden is passionate about helping staff and students believe in their own capacity for growth. He is a believer in collaboration and committed to reflection, continuous growth, and building a culture where belief drives performance. A husband and father of a curious three-year-old son, Paden is intentional about balancing leadership and family life while prioritizing what truly matters. In 2026, he was recognized by the West Virginia School Counselors Association as the Administrator of the Year. In this week’s episode, Paden reflects on his 12–13 year journey in education—from special education and science teacher to career and technical education leader, and now principal. Leading a small high school of approximately 360 students, he shares how steady leadership, collaboration, and belief in people have shaped his school's culture—especially in the years following the pandemic. Rebuilding After the Pandemic: Taking the principalship during the COVID recovery period, Paden focused on restoring normalcy, rebuilding relationships, and re-centering the school around a clear and memorable mission: To make it possible for all students to be self-supporting, contributing, and caring citizens. Rather than allowing the mission to sit on a wall, Paden and his leadership team distilled it into language that guides daily decisions. Each word carries weight: Self-supporting – Students develop independence, resilience, and life readiness. Contributing – Graduates move forward into work, military, college, or other meaningful pathways. Caring – Students grow into high-quality human beings who care for themselves and others. Building Culture Through Collective Efficacy: Paden emphasizes shared leadership and collective efficacy. By empowering teachers as experts and forming a student advisory council, he ensures students have voice and ownership in school culture. He regularly meets with grade-level groups to ask what's working, what's challenging, and what they'd change—modeling transparency and trust. The results of his leadership style are inspiring: Over 90% of students participate in extracurricular activities, reinforcing connection, motivation, and belonging. “Don't Water Rocks”: One of the most impactful leadership lessons Paden shares comes from his superintendent: DWR — Don't Water Rocks. Instead of pouring energy into unproductive criticism or negativity, leaders should invest their time where growth and impact are possible. Paden reframed his mindset: “I will defend this place every day—but I'd rather be proud of it.” This shift from defensiveness to pride allows the school to spotlight the 95% of good happening daily rather than being consumed by the 5% of negativity. Moving from Compliance to Deep Learning: The conversation also explores Tyler Consolidated's shift toward standards-based grading. Post-pandemic, Paden and his team realized their assessment practices had drifted toward compliance rather than deep learning. Through a voluntary summer cohort that grew far beyond expectations, staff began rethinking grading practices to focus on: Clear proficiency criteria Evidence-based assessment Meaningful feedback Learning over averaging The shift reflects a commitment to authentic growth rather than traditional gradebook calculations. Leadership and Family Balance: As a husband and father of a young child, Paden shares the ongoing challenge of balancing school leadership with family life. He emphasizes intentionality, perspective, and protecting what matters most—recognizing that sustainable leadership requires healthy personal priorities. Staying Connected: Paden shared lessons learned in standards-based grading from a previous guest, Garth Larson.
