Big deals and big meals. "Recovering" former San Leandro Councilmember Pete Ballew joins the season finale of The Marinade for a hearty conversation over lamb chops, 10-hour smoked beef ribs, and longanisa sausage. Ballew reflects on his eight years of public service, sharing candid thoughts on ethics at City Hall, the challenge of generating new revenue, and his outlook on the city's future. “The 89-9 has a built-in distrust of government,” Ballew says, using his trademark nickname for San Leandro and its residents. A former San Leandro police officer, Ballew also weighs in on law enforcement and the current direction of the city council. “There's two types of councilpeople,” he says. “People that get into it for the community, and people that get into it for themselves.” This episode of The Marinade with Lee Thomas is sponsored by Borja Plus Media photography and videography.

Ever wonder what it's like to build a coworking space outside the U.S. from scratch, in another language, with a whole new playbook? Joel Ballew is the Chief People Officer at Coventus Space in Barranquilla, Colombia, and he's not your average operator. He moved his family from Georgia to Colombia, sold his dream business, learned Spanish from the ground up, and launched what is now the largest privately held coworking space in a city of nearly 2 million people. In this episode, Joel shares the highs, the lows, and the “wait, you did what?” moments of creating a thriving, purpose-driven business in an emerging market. We talk about: The cultural and operational curveballs of launching a coworking space in Colombia—including why recurring payments aren't really a thing. How Joel built lead volume through WhatsApp, Instagram, and literal flyers on car windshields (and why it's working). What it takes to educate a market on coworking while creating a strong local brand. How his space combines private offices, day passes, event rentals, and even a coffee shop run by a third party. Why doing good while doing well isn't just a tagline—it's a business model that fuels impact and sustainability. Whether you're a seasoned operator or dreaming of launching in a new market, this conversation is a masterclass in adapting, listening to your audience, and building community on your own terms.

TEACHING SERIES: Preparing the Way TITLE: What God asks of you BY: Nathanael Ballew DATE: Sunday 4 May 2025 Bible Passage: Matthew 23:23-24, Micah 6:8 Have you ever been so obsessed with the little details of a task, you've missed the big picture? Some call this “missing the forest for the trees”, and our relationship with God can be a lot like this. We can become so focused on external rule-following that we miss the deeper call to justice, love and faithfulness. True faith is not just about checking boxes but about a heart surrendered to God, seeking genuine change from the inside out. Welcome: What's true of Riverside Church when we meet together in-person is still true of us online. We are on a journey together to help people get to know Jesus and grow as his followers across Birmingham and beyond. Riverside is a church made up of people from a diversity of backgrounds and experiences all with one thing in common; our discovery of God and His amazing love. We hope you will feel at home among us and that you will find our weekly services, events and groups welcoming and relevant to your life.

Episode 2748: Mike Ballew of EggStack.com explores the dilemma of being "house rich and cash poor," a situation where homeowners have significant equity locked in their property but lack sufficient liquid assets for a comfortable retirement.

"Downsizing to a smaller home has many advantages, including reduced utility bills and property taxes, making it an appealing option for retirees needing less space." "The primary disadvantage of a reverse mortgage is that you are essentially married to your home, as in until death do us part."

CTL Script/ Top Stories of May 4th Publish Date: May 3rd   From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Award-Winning Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast    Today is Saturday, May 4th and Happy 51st Birthday to Green Day bassist Mike Dirnt. ***05.0424 – BIRTHDAY – MIKE DIRNT*** I'm Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cherokee is talking about, presented by Credit Union of Georgia.  Man Arrested After Elderly Cherokee County Woman Targeted in International Scam Cherokee Schools Students Excel at National and Regional Winter Guard Competitions Construction at Hickory Flat Public Library Set to Be Done This Summer   Plus, Shannon Ballew's discussion with Captain Jay Baker covering strategies for individuals to protect themselves from scammers.   Also, your Cherokee County voter guide will be released in tomorrow's edition!   We'll have all this and more coming up on the Cherokee Tribune-Ledger Podcast, and if you're looking for Community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!    Commercial: CU of GA STORY 1: Man Arrested After Elderly Cherokee County Woman Targeted in International Scam A sophisticated international scam targeting an 80-year-old Cherokee County woman has resulted in the loss of hundreds of thousands of dollars. Initiated by a phone call from someone posing as Amazon, the scam led to convincing the victim to purchase gold and transfer significant sums of money. Parth Patel, a 27-year-old from Ontario, Canada, was arrested and charged in connection to the scam. The main suspects are believed to reside in India and the U.K., with Patel considered a lower level "associate." Despite the collaborative efforts of law enforcement, the victim's lost money has not been recovered. Cherokee detectives worked with the FBI and Homeland Security in the investigation and urge citizens to remain vigilant against such scams, providing tips to avoid falling victim in the future. STORY 2: Cherokee Schools Students Excel at National and Regional Winter Guard Competitions The Cherokee County School District's winter guard teams have demonstrated outstanding performance at both national and regional competitions. The Creekview High School varsity team notably advanced to the top 20 championship finals at the WGI World Championships, marking a historic first for the program and the district. Additionally, at the Southern Association for Performance Arts Championships, CCSD teams excelled, with five teams placing in the top 10. The Creekview High School varsity team notably earned a second-place finish in the Scholastic National Class. This collective success underscores the exceptional skill, dedication, and achievements of CCSD's winter guard teams. STORY 3: Construction at Hickory Flat Public Library Set to Be Done This Summer. What to Know The Hickory Flat Public Library's expansion and renovation are on track to conclude by late July, as reported by the Sequoyah Regional Library System. Initiated in January 2023, this project enters its final phase, focusing on shelving, furniture installation, technology updates, and staff training, estimated to last 12 weeks. Key upgrades include the addition of three conference rooms, an enhanced community room with advanced technology, an outdoor children's play area, and a contemporary “third space” for community gathering. The library, originally established in 1993, will notably see its square footage increase, providing more space for resources and community activities.

Georgia's Charlie Condon is distinguishing himself as the leading contender for the No. 1 pick in the MLB draft, following his latest triumphs, including breaking Georgia's all-time home run record. His stellar performance continues as he leads Division I with a .456 average, 30 home runs, and a 1.088 slugging percentage this season. Scouts see parallels between Condon and MLB's Aaron Judge, praising Condon's exceptional power and skill set. His versatility across multiple defensive positions further elevates his draft appeal. Amidst a competitive season, Condon's unexpected rise contrasts with his early days, barely noticed out of high school. Looking ahead, Condon is set to potentially shatter more records in his upcoming games, cementing his status as a standout college player. STORY 5: North Gwinnett Ends Cherokee's Postseason Run North Gwinnett's baseball team secured an impressive victory over Cherokee High School, continuing their dream season into the state quarterfinals. With a season record of 29-3 and an 18-game winning streak, the Bulldogs displayed their dominance. The two games against Cherokee resulted in a 7-6 win in walk-off fashion in game one, followed by a 13-8 victory in the nightcap. Notable performances by Jake Gaskill, Trey James, and Ryan Hall were key to the wins, as both games saw back-and-forth scoring and lead changes. This win marks a significant milestone for North Gwinnett's pursuit of a state championship. Shannon Ballew conversation with Captain Jay Baker up next.

In this episode Abena Appah-Sampong (@abenasamp) and Leana Dogbe (@leanadogbe) partner with Vaiva Dabravolskaite (vaivadabravolskaite@gmail.com) from ESVS to host an episode discussing social deprivation in vascular surgery. Dr. Tara Mastracci and Dr. Olamide Alabi join us to offer insights into how social deprivation drives disparities in outcomes and steps to how we can shift practice paradigms to better address our patient needs.   Dr. Tara Mastracci (@aorticsurgeon) is a vascular surgeon with over 15 years of experience treating and managing complex aortic pathologies. She is currently working at St. Bartholomew's Hospital in London, UK, on the Cardiothoracic Team doing complex aortic surgery. On top of her clinical duties, Dr. Mastracci is dedicated to studying the social and non-clinical factors influencing vascular outcomes.    Dr. Olamide Alabi (@OAlabiMD) is an Associate Professor of Surgery in the Department of Surgery at Emory University School of Medicine. Her clinical effort focuses on the full scope of vascular disease for patients at Emory University Hospital and the Atlanta VA HealthCare System, however, her academic portfolio and funded research is focused primarily on the intersection of peripheral artery disease, quality, and health equity.    References: Social Deprivation and the Association With Survival Following Fenestrated Endovascular Aneurysm Repair/2021 https://www.annalsofvascularsurgery.com/article/S0890-5096(21)00872-4/fulltext Is social deprivation an independent predictor of outcomes following cardiac surgery?

Scott Ballew is an Austin, Texas-based filmmaker and musician. For years, he's directed unforgettable videos and documentaries for Yeti and others. In 2020, he decided to take up songwriting and recorded his first album just a year later. This week, Ballew releases his third album, Rio Bravo. It's an exceptional work that somehow combines Ballew's affinity for Townes Van Zandt and other Austin legends with his love for reverb-drenched Ennio Morricone soundtracks. We love it.  During our chat, Scott tells us about his unlikely journey from football star to director to songwriter and about how filmmaking has shaped his music output. We also talk about the making of Rio Bravo, Scott's growing guitar collection, the time he spent with Townes Van Zandt's Gibson, and how – thanks to Pearl Jam – he ended up playing football for the University of Washington.   Scott's site: https://www.leisurerodeo.com Recommended viewing: Can You Hear Me Smiling: A short doc on Scott Ballew's songwriting https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEkWxtLjD-4&t=1s My Old Man | No. 4 - Anchor Point: Scott's Yeti doc featuring JT Van Zandt https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KadKx5k6XoY Leisure Rodeo: A Short Film by Scott Ballew https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65vd-PjEBnY&t=2s Subscribe to the Fretboard Journal print edition and reserve your copy of Fretboard Journal 54:  https://shop.fretboardjournal.com/products/fretboard-journal-annual-subscription Register for our 2024 Fretboard Summit in Chicago (Aug 23-25): https://fretboardsummit.org/ This week's show is sponsored by: StewMac: https://stewmac.sjv.io/R5jvRR (Affiliate link) Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar: https://mmguitarbar.com Izotope: https://www.izotope.com (Use the code FRET10 to save 10%) Stringjoy Strings: https://stringjoy.com (Use the code FRETBOARD to save 10% off your first order) Peghead Nation: https://www.pegheadnation.com (Get your first month free or $20 off any annual subscription with the promo code FRETBOARD at checkout).

Scott Ballew joins the podcast to talk about his inspiring creative evolution.  From his early days on the football fields of Texas that would ultimately lead to a Rose Bowl appearance, to working his way up from PA to Executive Producer on the commercial and film sets of LA, to returning to Austin to help create beautiful films for Yeti in his role as head of content, to directing his own documentaries and short films, to recording multiple albums and joining the amazing roster at La Honda Records, and how all the life experience in between continues to help feed his desire to never stop creating.  During our conversation we talk about his battle with drug and alcohol addiction and how sobriety and an amazing mentor in legendary musician Terry Allen would convince him to start putting his stories to music and, at the age of 37, become such a prolific songwriter that 3 albums would follow over the next 3 years on top of the whirlwind schedule of filmmaking that continues to this day.  We also discuss our shared experience of trying to fill the spiritual void after getting clean from opiates, the daily practice of creation he learned from Terry and how he goes about trying to connect with "The Muse", what he's learned from years of pointing the camera at so many inspiring characters, and the advice he gives to others on their own creative journey.  To Learn More About Scott Ballew Visit: https://www.leisurerodeo.com And Follow Him On Instagram At: https://www.instagram.com/irish_goodbye/ To Watch The Film "Leisure Rodeo" Visit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65vd-PjEBnY To Watch The Film "Can You See Me Smiling" Visit: https://youtu.be/pEkWxtLjD-4?si=STapuHWFnhdQ5MVX To Learn More About Visual Revolutionary Visit: https://www.visualrevolutionary.com And Follow On Instagram At: https://www.instagram.com/visualrevolutionary/ And YouTube At: http://www.youtube.com/@visualrevolutionary
