Great things happen when we plug into community and open ourselves up to the learning process. This is especially true when you begin your own business and apply those things you have learned from your experiences. It opens up entirely new levels. Today on this 36th episode of Rate of Rise, brought to you by our friends at Mill City Roasters, we are talking with Alex Jacob of Vital Coffee Roasters. Alex Jacob is the founder of Vital Coffee Roasters, Head Roaster for Ascension Coffee Roasters, and a 2025 Fellow with The Chain Collaborative. He holds two master's degrees in Public Health and Public Administration and is a licensed Q Grader. His passion for coffee began as a hobby and developed into positions as a barista and roasting assistant during graduate school. It was a desire to combine his passions of community impact and coffee that eventually led him to change careers, leaving the world of healthcare. Alex's aspirations had him seeking ways to better understand the coffee supply chain and how to use coffee as a method of impact. This path of continuous learning and community-focused development is what fuels his work today. We learn: Alex' start as a hobbyist during graduate school How his background in biochemistry influenced his approach to coffee roasting Why building confidence in roasting comes from positive reinforcement and experience Why community interaction is crucial for business success in the coffee industry. Behind Vital Coffee Roasters: a mission to impact the community positively Importance of being open to learning and new ideas. How he adapted his roasting style to meet consumer preferences Why networking and face-to-face interactions are key to building relationships in business The importance of continuous growth and learning are essential for success in entrepreneurship.

It's our first episode with a guest and we go extra long as Alex Jacob, 2015 Tournament of Champions winner and recent JIT competitor, joins us to break down his game in detail and all of the games last week as the JIT quarterfinals near their conclusion. And if one guest wasn't enough, Laurie Kilmartin (comedian) also very quickly joins us to discuss how good it felt to be a Jeopardy! clue last week, and how she hopes it leads to good things. This episode is full of good things as Chuck Forrest returns to the Alex Trebek stage, a few Chasers return after long layoffs, and David Madden gives one of the best anecdotes in recent memory. In JFAF, Ken shows off his tie collection, and John dives deep into the wild life of Al Capone. Follow us on Instagram at @whatisajeopardypodcast and on Twitter at @jeopardypodcast.

This week, I am joined by Alex Jacob, Jeopardy! Tournament of Champions winner along with 2006 United States Poker Championship winner, and we're curating a mixtape filled with songs from our favorite 2000's movie soundtracks. The 2000's was a time when movie soundtracks became less of an event, with the advent of digital downloading and streaming, so this was the most challenging of this month's movie soundtrack episodes. But with that said, I think Alex and I rose to the occasion with an eclectic mix that showcases the best of what the decade had to offer! Be sure to visit MyWeeklyMixtape.com to hear all of the songs we discussed in this episode!

The Jewish context is key! Not really a surprise to many, but it's great to hear the context in how the Gospels are written from the point of view of their author, who they are written to and what they really meant to them and to us now. This episode starts explaining this with Alex Jacob, who gives brilliant insights that can serve to enrich our understanding of the Gospel passages. Enjoy.
Our November episode comes a little late, but in the continuous spirit of “recovery,” Chad and Veronica are joined by writer, editor, and Powell's Books managing editor Kelsey Ford to talk Pedro Almodóvar's Dolor y Gloria (Pain and Glory, 2019). We get into the film's “wildly tender” exploration of autobiography and artistic process, Almodóvar's aspirational apartments, that for-old-times'-sake kiss, melodrama's coincidences, being in the mood for moms, and wanting Penelope Cruz to make you a chocolate sandwich. Here's Almodóvar talking about Pain and Glory at the BFI Southbank, here's GQ's 2019 profile discussing the film, here's the film's screenplay, and here's Alex Jacob's supercut of Alex Trebek saying “genre.”The Bright Wall/Dark Room Podcast is co-hosted by Veronica Fitzpatrick and Chad Perman and produced and edited by Eli Sands.

3 April 2022 - Fifth Sunday in Lent - As we approach Passover and Holy Week, Isaiah has us look back at the Exodus while also calling our attention to God's new thing. We look back not in nostalgia, says Rev. Alex Jacob, but to remember God's faithfulness, a faithfulness that we can count on going forward. We find here a tension between contentment in our circumstance and ambition for God's future. As we search our hearts for holy balance, Mary of Bethany models for us devoted, Jesus-centered worship. How pure is our motivation to follow and worship Jesus? Readings: Isaiah 43:16-20; Psalm 126; Philippians 3:4-14; John 12:1-8 Blessed by our teachings?

Matt Waxman learned the game in high school, but really got his career going in 2009 when he final tabled a $5,000 no-limit hold'em event at the World Series of Poker. The Parkland, Florida native won a WSOP Circuit ring the next year in Atlantic City, and followed that up with his biggest score to date, taking down the World Poker Tour Grand Prix de Paris for just over $720,000. Waxman nearly won the Festa al Lago Classic the next year, and in 2013, he won his first WSOP bracelet, banking $305,000 for topping a $1,000 no-limit hold'em event. Waxman had a deep run in the 2014 WSOP main event, and just last year, he picked up his second WPT title, pocketing $463,000 at the WPT Tournament of Champions. In total, the 34-year-old has more than $4.1 million in live tournament earnings to go along with millions more won online. Highlights from this interview include being a resident of the world, flipping noodles for profit, being on the middle school basketball team with Alex Jacob, poker on the boat, playing among the ashtrays, the benefit of ignorance, being British at the tables, catching cheats, going broke, blinding out of an FTOPS win, having parents unimpressed by six-figure scores, a WPT championship in France, being a millionaire and feeling empty, a seven-hour heads-up match with Eric Baldwin, bad news from home a world away, pushing time shares, hearing 'water' in his ear, and dealing with stabbed TVs and the police.
2 Dec 2018 - Rev. Alex Jacob, on the First Sunday in Advent, tells us that in this season we cannot just look in one direction. We cannot just look back to the birth of the Messiah, and we cannot just look forward to his Second Coming. In order to have the full picture of the Gospel in the present, we must look to the past and to the future. Readings: Jeremiah 33:14-16, 1 Thessalonians 3:9-13, Luke 21:25-36
18 March 2018 - Guest speaker Alex Jacob, director of CMJ UK, looks at some of the historical aspects of CMJ. For New Testament writers this passage is vey significant. Jeremiah 31 is one of the most important passages that leads people to faith, although often the journey to faith is not straightforward. CMJ founder Joseph Samuel Levi became a believer through this passage saying, “These words, I have never heard before. This man and the reading he shared made a deep and lasting impression on me and I was challenged.” On 8 May 1798, Joseph Samuel was baptised in Germany and agreed to be given a new name, Joseph Frey. What is meant by "new" covenant in Jeremiah 31. Is it new that breaks with the past? Or is it new as in renewal and enlargement of previous covenants? Alex makes the case for the latter. Readings: Jeremiah 31:31-34, Hebrews 5: 5-10, John 12: 20-33
Alex Jacob, Andrew Pau, Jason Sterlacci, Seth Wilson
10 Sept. 2017 - Rev. Alex Jacob of CMJ UK explains the very heart of our faith is in relationship with Jesus and what unites us as believers is our commitment to Jesus as Lord. It is through Him that we know God and we know our identity in Him. We rejoice in our diversity but also in the unity we have in Him as Lord and Saviour. Out of that ‘vertical relationship’ there is also a ‘ horizontal’ one. When Jesus is Lord, we discover our brothers and sisters. Readings: Ezekiel 33:7 - 11, Romans 13:8-14, Matthew 18:15-20.
