We talk all things Louder Than Life and Bourbon & Beyond on this week's Access Louisville podcast.Special Projects Editor Allison Stines and Editor-in-Chief Shea Van Hoy join the show to discuss the massive crowds, how the festival continues to evolve and the impact the events have on Louisville by bringing hundreds of thousands of visitors to the city during September. We're probably a week or so out from knowing exactly what attendance looked like for the festivals.The two festivals are put on by Danny Wimmer Presents and have had a major impact over the years. Louder Than Life was expected to have an estimated economic impact of  $24.1 million, while Bourbon & Beyond is expected to bring in $13.8 million. According to Louisville Tourism, the two festivals generated an estimated $43 million in local economic impact in 2025. So if the estimates above hold true, they would be off that figure slightly at $37.9 million this year.  We also chat about how Louisville's food scene is represented at the festival grounds. And of course, we swap stories about memorable performances, favorite festival experiences, standout food and drink options and more.On the show this week, we also talk about Danny Wimmer Presents commitment to keeping the events in Louisville for the next 10 years. Access Louisville, sponsored by Baird, is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First.

We sit down with one of Louisville's most recognizable business leaders on this week's Access Louisville podcast. Republic Bank Executive Chairman Steve Trager joins the show to discuss the bank's continued growth, including its presence in five states, a record financial performance and competitive advantages.In an interview wtih LBF Editor-in-Chief Shea Van Hoy, Trager also shares his thoughts on technology in banking, including how Republic is using artificial intelligence internally while maintaining a strong focus on personal relationships. "We have multiple internal [AI] agents that we've developed that can answer questions and help our people serve their customers in various areas," he said. However, he added, "I don't see it customer-facing directly anytime soon.I have my own experience with customer-facing AI, and it's been terrible almost every time I've tried to use it."With that said, he also comments on how he believes bankers should have a personal relationship with their clients We also talk philanthropy and community leadership, with Trager reflecting on the influence of his Jewish faith and why projects such as the Trager MicroForest and other downtown investments are important to Louisville's future.We get off business topics a bit too and Trager gives us recommendations on restaurants and where he likes to take out of town guests.

Wealth management firms are being asked to support more assets, deliver greater personalization and provide clients with increasingly real-time experiences. But behind the scenes, many investment teams are still operating across disconnected portfolio management, trading, CRM, accounting, compliance and reporting systems. As artificial intelligence moves from copilots and chatbots toward agents that can actually perform work, that fragmented infrastructure may become an even bigger constraint. In this episode of The WealthStack Podcast, host Shannon Rosic sits down with Sterling Perkins, director of solutions consulting at Ridgeline, to explore what happens when the investment management tech stack is rebuilt around a single system of record. Key takeaways: Why embedded AI with access to client, portfolio and transaction context could have an advantage over bolted-on tools Why AI could allow firms to grow AUM without increasing headcount How Ridgeline moves portfolio workflows from modeling through compliance, trading, accounting and billing How firms should think about governance, permissions and human oversight as AI agents take on more responsibility  Why the capacity created by AI can be reinvested in client relationships  Resources: Listen to WealthStack on Wealth Management Subscribe and listen to WealthStack on Apple Podcasts Subscribe and listen to WealthStack on Spotify Connect with Shannon Rosic: Shannon Rosic WealthStack website Wealth Management Connect with Sterling Perkins: LinkedIn: Sterling Perkins LinkedIn: Ridgeline Website: Ridgeline About Our Guest: Sterling Perkins is the Director of Solutions Consulting at Ridgeline, where he works at the intersection of wealth management and financial technology.

Wednesday Evening Service - Micah 3 1-12 - Patrick Baird

Welcome birders to fall migration and a new episode of The Big Year Podcast, with me your congenial host, Robert Baumander.   It's the time of where the phrase, “there's no birding like shore birding” comes to mind.     In fact, I've written a little song to commemorate the Occasion:   There's no birding like shore birding.  There's no birding I know.  Every little sandpiper is amazing.  Every little plover is divine. Nowhere can you can you get that birdy feeling When you are see-ing a Snowy Plover   There's no birders like shore birders They smile at the sea shore Yesterday they told you, you had missed the bird Today you're back to get your Lifer Plover And you're heart's racing for more   Just yesterday down at Turkey Point Beach in Norfolk County, I enjoyed a young, migrating Red Knot, mingling with a Semipalmated Sandpiper and a few Semipalmated Plovers.  Closer to home, we had shorebirds and sandpipers in farmer's fields, especially sod farms and flooded fields.  First up, here in Brant County, was a Short-billed Dowitcher, and over a dozen American Golden Plovers at our local sod farm. Baird's Sandpipers came next, followed by everyone's favorite fall migrant, the Buff-breasted Sandpiper.  The dowitcher was a new county bird, species 248, finally landing me in the top five all time for Brant County in just under six years.  Hey, I like numbers, I like lists and lists of numbers. Anyway, all of us avid birders here in Brant County got our first looks at the buff-breasted last year at this time, and we were lucky enough to get one again this year too.   In fact, I got see it with two of my favorite local birders, Ellen and Jerry Horak.  And wouldn't you know it, the more obsessive half of the couple, Ellen, just happens to be my guest today.  A nice little bit of Serendipity, if you will.  In fact, after a winter trip to Costa Rica, it was Ellen's 601st species of the year.  Again with the numbers. I had a year like that in 2016, when Sue and I went to Panama for a week in January.  That was part of my Birds and Blue Jays Big Year.  That year I was traveling with the Toronto Blue Jays Baseball Club on all their Major League road trips.  It was a true North American Big Year.  We saw 229 species during our week in Panama and I counted 483 in the ABA Area, ending the year with a combined 665 species, and a back that would put me in the hospital just two months later.  In fact I spent three weeks in the hospital, ending my consecutive daily eBird streak at over 800 days when I spent a couple of days in a windowless intensive care unit.  Ellen and Jerry's third consecutive Big Year was a Canada Big Year.  As you know from last season, Ellen and Jerry began with a Brant County Big Year in 2023 counting over 200 species, followed by an Ontario Big Year in 2024, where they finished in first place with over 330 species. If you haven't listened to that episode, go back and catch up, and and you'll be ready for this newest installment.  For 2025 they hit the trifecta, ending up first in Canada with 431 species, joining the exclusive 400 club for Canada.  This is he equivalent of the 700 club,(no not that one), for the ABA Area.  The 400 club includes Neil and Andrea MacLeod, who set the bar with 457 species in 2018. The Sandy Komito of Canada, Bruce Dilabio, the current record holder with 480 species, has topped 400 species four times.  David M Bell who's 435 species ranks him fifth all time for Canada in a single year had has topped 400 twice.  Other members of the 400 club include previous guest Gavin McKinnon, who had back to back 400 plus years, including 425 species last year, only six species behind Ellen and Jerry.  Rounding up the 400 club, we have Rain Saulnier and Jacob Stasso with 406 and Monica Nugent,(405).  Oh, I forgot me!  I had the record for all of one year in 2022 with 458 species.     The newest members of the 400 club, Ellen and Jerry, are also part of the even more exclusive 431club.  Only eight birders have ever topped 430 in a single year, here in the Great White North, with our friend Bruce having done it twice.   Well, enough with number crunching, which is, as you may guessed, is a favorite activity, if not obsession of mine, and on with the show.

What makes a retreat unforgettable?   It is rarely just the itinerary.   It is the feeling.  The energy in the room.   The moments guests did not expect.   In this episode of The Retreat Leaders Podcast, Shannon Jamail sits down with Austin-based singer, songwriter, and musician Christine Baird to talk about the role of live music, art, and real human connection in creating transformational retreat experiences.   Christine has performed at multiple retreats hosted by Shannon, and together they explore why live music brings something to a retreat that a playlist, a screen, or even AI-generated music simply cannot replicate.   They discuss how music and art can shift the energy of a room, help guests become more present, create emotional anchors, and turn a good retreat into something people remember long after they leave.   The conversation also dives into why live, in-person experiences are becoming even more valuable in a fast-moving AI world. As technology gets better at creating content, music, images, and experiences digitally, the value of real human energymay actually increase.   If you are a retreat leader looking for creative retreat activities, ways to improve your guest experience, or ideas that help your retreat stand out, this episode will make you think differently about what belongs on your itinerary.   In This Episode You'll Learn Why live music can elevate a retreat experience How art and creativity support deeper connection Why guests remember feelings more than schedules How music can help people become more present The difference between recorded or AI-generated music and a live human performance Why in-person experiences are becoming more valuable in the AI era How retreat leaders can use music and art to create emotional anchors Why creative retreat activities can improve guest satisfaction, referrals, and repeat attendance Key Takeaways Retreats Are Felt, Not Just Attended Your guests may forget the exact order of the workshops. They will remember how the experience made them feel. Live Music Changes the Room There is something different about having a real person creating music in real time. Guests feel the energy, imperfection, emotion, and connection. AI Can Create Music. It Cannot Recreate Human Presence. Technology can create incredibly impressive music. What it cannot reproduce is the shared experience of being in a room with another human being creating something live. Art Creates Emotional Anchors A song, painting, creative workshop, or shared artistic experience can become one of the strongest memories someone takes home from a retreat. Retreat Leaders Should Think Beyond Content You do not need another workshop just because there is an empty hour on the schedule. Sometimes the better choice is music, art, nature, conversation, or simply space to experience the moment.

Season 10 Ep 10- Healing One Child Can Change Generations | Shonnery Pettit What happens when healing one child has the power to change generations? Shonnery Pettit, Past President of the Board of Directors for the Center for Child Protection, joins Tes Silverman to share how a childhood lesson in kindness grew into decades of child advocacy and community service. From protecting children experiencing abuse to helping families heal and break generational cycles, Shonnery shows how compassion put into action can create an impact far beyond one life. Shonnery Pettit doesn't just live in a community; she builds, protects, and champions it. Driven by a single, powerful question—“What is in the best interest of the community we live in?”—Shonnery has spent decades turning empathy into massive, measurable impact. As the Immediate Past President of the Board of Directors for the Center for Child Protection, Shonnery's decade-long dedication has been nothing short of historic. Under her fierce leadership, the Center raised a record-breaking $97 million and walked alongside over 14,000 children through their darkest hours. Her passion for service ignited years ago in Dallas, where she founded the Ignite Running Club, a nonprofit serving children living in a homeless shelter. Today, her philanthropic footprint is woven into the very fabric of Texas. Shonnery is a Founding Board member for the Round Top Film Festival—where she works to inspire and educate the next generation of cinematic storytellers—and serves on the Advisory Board of Foster Village. You can also find her driving success on the gala committees for the Andy Roddick Foundation, MJ&M (Mack, Jack & McConaughey) Fashion Show, and The Trail Conservancy, alongside past work with the Texas Advocacy Project, United Way, and Austin City Limits/PBS. A Texas Business Hall of Fame Scholar with an MBA from Texas Tech University, Shonnery is as sharp in the boardroom as she is engaging on stage. A passionate public speaker, she recently had the honor of delivering the 2024 Commencement address for Chaparral Star Academy. And if you think she only moves fast in the nonprofit world, guess again. Shonnery was a Celebrity Dancer for the 2015 Dancing with the Stars Austin and loves spending her free time kickboxing, traveling, and studying French and Spanish. She has been happily married to her husband, Tom, for 26 years, and is the proud mom of two grown sons: Blake, who excels at Accenture, and Brett, a Vanderbilt graduate working as a financial wealth manager at Baird. “What I loved most about being the President of the Board at the Center for Child Protection is working with an incredible group of talented and selfless people that truly exceed all expectations and make a difference in little lives. “ - Shonnery Pettit To learn more about Shonnery Pettit and the Center for Child Protection: Facebook for the Center for Child Protection: https://www.facebook.com/Center4CP?mibextid=wwXIfr&rdid=ObJSfJbxGrQeua7S&share_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fshare%2F1BaEAvCSQG%2F%3Fmibextid%3DwwXIfr# IG for Round Top Film Festival: https://www.instagram.com/roundtopfilmfestival IG for The Trail Conservancy: https://www.instagram.com/thetrailconservancy IG for Mack, Jack & McConaughey: https://www.instagram.com/mackjackmcconaughey For another powerful conversation about protecting children and breaking cycles of abuse, listen to Tes's conversation with Misty Griffin, author of Tears of the Silenced. https://revwoman.com/podcast/misty-griffin-author-of-tears-of-the-silenced/?utm_source=chatgpt.com . .

Louisville has plenty to offer visitors, but can the city's tourism sector keep up with demand? We chat about that and more with Louisville Tourism CEO Cleo Battle on this week's Access Louisville podcast.Battle is on the show this week for an interview with LBF Editor-in-Chief Shea Van Hoy. The two talk about Louisville coming off a fourth consecutive year of record tourism revenue, generating a $4.4 billion economic impact in Jefferson County."Thursday through Sunday in this city, we are jamming every month of the year," he said.But he notes that Louisville needs additional hotel rooms to keep pace with growing conventions and remain competitive with peer cities. This was something that Senior Reporter Joel Stinnett wrote about in a recent cover story. Through Louisville Tourism, 610 meetings and events are booked each year. Those events are growing, he said, but in order for them to stay in Louisville, the city needs to grow with them. "That's our challenge," he said. "We have the smallest amount of hotel rooms in our competitive set. We have the smallest number of direct flights in our competitive set. We have to compete and so we need to grow.In addition to the convention side of the business, Battle and Van Hoy talked about big events that bring guests to town, including music festivals like Bourbon & Beyond and Louder Than Life as well as Louisville's plans to host the USA Gymnastics Olympic Trials in 2028."I don't know that it's sunk in for people that the Olympic flags are going to fly above Louisville and represent Louisville and Kentucky," he said. "There is just not a price you can put on that type of exposure and advertising and marketing that we're going to get from that."Battle also shares what Louisville Tourism is doing to market the city, why Chicago remains Louisville's top visitor market and what trends he's watching across the tourism industry.Access Louisville, sponsored by Baird, is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First.

We serve up a packed restaurant roundup on the Access Louisville podcast this week, including some familiar names and new concepts entering the market. Reporter Michael L Jones starts us off with an update on Captain's Quarters' plans for a new event venue. The Boathouse, as the space will be called, will consist of a 1,700 square foot main hall and a 600-square-foot patio. The space will accommodate up to 100 guests for seated dinners and 140 guests for cocktail-style receptions.Additionally, we chat about the news that KingFish, one of Louisville's longtime and very recognizable restaurant brands, is up for sale.

Gabe Diederich, portfolio manager on the municipal income team at Baird, says that yields are back near the upper end of their recent ranges, "capturing the imagination of investors" searching for income at a time when the stock market is making them nervous. Diederich discusses how artificial-intelligence is impacting bond markets, between municipalities financing infrastructure products or corporations issuing debt to pay for A.I.-related capital expenditures, and discusses strategies for using — or trying to eliminate — bonds as an A.I.-adjacent play, but how investors with huge expectations for artificial intelligence need to have more realistic hopes, based more around consistent returns, when it comes to bond tied to artificial intelligence. A week after making an actively managed fund filled with blue-chip growth stocks his "ETF of the Week," Todd Rosenbluth, head of research at VettaFi, circles back to large caps but this time selects an index-based large-cap value-oriented fund. It's a contrast in styles and management techniques that also digs into portfolio construction and the way the funds should be used by investors. In the Market Call, Erk Aydogan, co-founder of Traidechart — an app that uses artificial intelligence to examine stock prospects over different investment time frames — talks about the approach, which is designed to use computing power to determine confidence in a stock's direction and ability to deliver to investor expectations.

Interview with Campbell Baird, CEO of Asante GoldRecording date: 13th August 2026Asante Gold Corporation is working through an operational and leadership reset four months into Campbell Baird's tenure as Acting CEO, following the retirement of predecessor Dave Anthony. The company's investment case for 2026 hinges less on new catalysts than on execution against an already-disclosed plan: converting roughly $50 million of deferred or cancelled capital expenditure, combined with a narrower project focus, into the guided 275,000-300,000 ounce production range at an AISC of $3,200-$3,600 per ounce for the full year.The two operating assets are pulling in different directions operationally. Chirano has provided stability throughout 2026, delivering a consistent 10,000-11,000 ounces monthly even as Bibiani absorbed the impact of a January wall slip and an extended, costly stripping campaign in its Main Pit. Bibiani's ore has also proven more sulfidic than originally modelled, prompting a shift toward roughly 50% flotation processing and a sulfide recovery plant now being tied into the wider circuit - a process Baird estimated was roughly two months from completion.The key catalyst for H2 2026 performance is grade: Bibiani's head grade is expected to move from approximately 1.3-1.4 g/t over the past six months toward a targeted 1.7-1.8 g/t as mining progresses deeper into the Main Pit, directly underpinning the guided cost reduction weighted to Q4.On the resource side, Asante's 5 August NI 43-101 update showed combined Measured and Indicated Resources of 4.6 million ounces across both operations - effectively flat against December 2023 levels despite more than 430,000 ounces of production in the interim. Chirano's resource base grew materially (+443,000 ounces M&I since December 2023), supporting a seven-year mine life, while Bibiani's declined 17% on constrained exploration spend and open-pit depletion, even as its Main Pit is interpreted as geologically open to roughly 1,400 metres against only ~600 metres of current definition. The company frames the broader 80-kilometre Chirano-Bibiani Corridor as structurally comparable to far larger, more extensively drilled greenstone belts (Lefroy-Boulder, Abitibi), with a $23.4 million exploration budget allocated for 2026.On costs, management's own framing is notably conservative: Baird explicitly ruled out sub-$2,000/oz AISC as a credible near-term outcome, targeting below $3,000/oz only as a longer-term objective. This tempers what might otherwise be an overly optimistic reading of the company's cost trajectory, and is worth weighing against the wider sector-level cost inflation (diesel, labour, supply chain) that Baird cited as affecting gold producers broadly, not just Asante.The clearest risk flag for investors is guidance continuity: Asante's prior annual production target of 400,000-500,000 ounces remains formally withdrawn, with management stating directly it is not planning to reinstate it. The 275,000-300,000 ounce 2026 range should be treated as the only current, company-sanctioned figure.View Asante Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/asante-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

We discuss the latest look at Louisville's Belvedere overhaul on this week's Access Louisville podcast. New renderings show a greener, more flexible public space designed to host everything from concerts to farmers markets. But, as Reporter Michael L. Jones explains, much of the project's budget will actually go toward repairing the aging parking garage beneath it. We also look at the latest addition to the Galt House's ongoing makeover: a collection of luxury suites themed around Louisville traditions including U of L athletics and horse racing.

We look at Louisville's hotel development boom on this week's Access Louisville podcast. Senior Reporter Joel Stinnett breaks down why tourism leaders and convention organizers say Louisville needs more hotel rooms — something he'd looked into for a recent cover story. While weekend tourism remains strong, the larger opportunity is attracting and growing conventions during the week. We discuss nearly a dozen proposed hotel projects around Downtown Louisville and one in Southern Indiana and what they could mean for the local economy.We also talk about the proposed Clockworks development in Clarksville, Indiana, where developers plan to anchor a $500 million mixed-use project with a 175-room Marriott hotel. Later in the show, we discuss the surprising news that no Louisville hospital made the latest U.S. News & World Report rankings of Kentucky's top hospitals. Stinnett explains which health systems topped the list and offers some perspective on how those rankings are determined.We also cover Baptist Health Floyd's planned emergency department expansion in New Albany and a new bioscience research facility planned as part of the University of Louisville's Innovation Park development near the Belknap Campus. Late in the show we mention the future of the former Theatair X property. Access Louisville, sponsored by Baird, is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First.

Associate Pastor Adam Baird's sermon, "New Approach, Same Throne," centered on Hebrews 4:14–16, emphasizing that because of Jesus Christ, believers no longer have to approach God with fear, shame, or a performance mindset. Instead, Jesus, our compassionate High Priest, understands our weaknesses, invites us into God's presence with confidence, and offers mercy for our past, grace for our future, and help for our present needs. Through personal testimony and biblical teaching, Baird encouraged those burdened by sin, failure, addiction, or discouragement to stop believing they must "clean themselves up" before coming to God, and instead boldly enter the throne of grace just as they are, trusting in Christ's finished work rather than their own efforts.
