A USDA loan does not have to mean farming. Jordan Blanchard works with businesses and investors using USDA backed financing for commercial projects in smaller communities across the United States and its eligible territories. Jordan explains that the USDA definition of rural generally covers a town, city, or census tract with no more than 50,000 people, as long as it is not contiguous with another urban area. That creates room for many types of projects. Excalibur Rural Capital has financed businesses ranging from almond processing to a sand terminal. The company also works heavily in hospitality and can finance commercial real estate purchases, construction, and equipment. Jordan also walks through what his team looks for before approving a project. Ownership experience comes first. They also want to see equity already available, a source for more equity if challenges arise, and collateral that supports the loan. Key topics and takeaways: What the USDA considers a rural community Why USDA business lending is focused on economic development rather than farms The types of commercial projects Excalibur Rural Capital finances Why ownership experience matters in underwriting Why all equity must go into the project before the loan funds How hospitality became a major part of USDA and SBA lending Why properties with more than one possible use can be attractive

Here in Portland, Oregon the air is cooler, days shorter, and desire for hot coffee…greater? The seasons change and that means our delicious summer series The Build-Outs of Coffee is coming to close. But not before our last installment of what we like to call The Coffee Buildcast! Coffees are sipped! Build-outs are discussed! The Coffees We sip a natural Nightswim Coffee Don Lisandro Gesha (Huila, Colombia) with notes of acai, blueberry yogurt, rosewater, and sweet basil. It's brewed with a Hario v60 and served in a hand-blown Verve Culture mezcal glass. While this coffee is currently unavailable, delicious coffees abound on Nightswim Coffee's official web shop. Also in the studio is a new brand from Blanchard's Coffee called 93000000.net. It's called Orange Soda, it's #93,000,003, and it's delicious! Read about the design behind this new brand in our Coffee Design article, too! The Tisanes Coffees are all well and good but how good are coffees with a complementary tisane? That's exactly what we were thinking when we brewed some fresh Garden Lemongrass from our friends at Dona in Brooklyn, NY. The Builds Build-Outs discussed on this episode include a brand new Los Angeles Stumptown Coffee Roasters cafe and a super fresh Fresh Pot in Copenhagen, Denmark. The 2026 Build-outs of Coffee is presented by DONA, Pacific Barista Series, and La Marzocco.

They compare physical gold with ETFs and mining stocks, examine buying and selling costs, and talk through liquidity, storage, inflation, and the role gold can play in a diversified portfolio. David also explains how Blanchard helps clients choose and hold precious metals—and why he sees gold primarily as a way to preserve wealth rather than generate income.

We explain how their teams dominated college football during World War II and in the immediate postwar years. We note that the 1944 team went 9-0 and won a national title while holding opponents to seven points or fewer, and that the 1945 team produced lopsided wins such as 48-0 over Notre Dame and 61-0 over Penn. We describe their complementary styles, with Davis running a quick sweep and Blanchard using a counter out of a full house T. We credit Colonel Earl H.

The discussion highlights the legal history of gold in the U.S., specifically the 1974 legalization, and provides clarity on why sophisticated investors treat physical bullion as a permanent hedge against uncertainty rather than a get-rich-quick scheme.Financial security often feels like a fragile concept when markets fluctuate, yet history shows that physical assets have served as a reliable anchor for generations. In this episode, we peek behind the curtain of the gold industry to understand why tangible ownership offers a unique kind of peace of mind.Main Points:Define the role of gold as an insurance policy within a diversified portfolio.Identify the difference between paper gold ETFs and physical ownership.Learn why central banks prioritize physical bullion during periods of economic stress.Distinguish between wealth preservation strategies and speculative trading.Understand the importance of selecting reputable firms for gold and silver acquisition.Connect with David Beahm:https://www.linkedin.com/company/137420https://www.facebook.com/BlanchardandCompany/#https://www.youtube.com/user/BlanchardGoldhttps://www.blanchardgold.com/

 Dr. Naphtali Hoff trains school leaders and teachers to perform at their best without running themselves into the ground. A former educator and school leader himself, Dr. Hoff now coaches and trains school leaders on management, productivity, and delegation across the country. He's the author of three books, and his newest, Becoming the Delegating School Boss, is the one most relevant here — it helps school leaders clear their plates and empower their teams. Dr. Naphtali Hoff joins the Ruckuscast to break down why so many principals resist letting go, and what it actually takes to build a team you can trust. Every principal has felt it: the sense that if they left the building for a day, something would fall apart. That's not a compliment — it's a delegation problem, and it's quietly running good leaders into the ground. This episode breaks down why school leaders won't let go, and the exact framework for handing off real work without losing control of it.

Servant Leadership: The Secret Great Leaders Know

A New Direction

Servant Leadership: Are You Avoiding It? What if the biggest leadership breakthrough of your career isn’t a new strategy, a new title, or a new set of KPIs — but a philosophy you’ve been overlooking your whole career? That’s the question at the heart of today’s show. At 5pm Eastern on “A New Direction with Coach Jay,” I’m sitting down live with Mark Miller — co-author, alongside legendary leadership expert Ken Blanchard, of the newly revised and expanded 4th edition of “The Secret: What Great Leaders Know and Do.” Blanchard and Miller say 82 percent of managers struggle to lead effectively, and their answer to why is deceptively simple: servant leadership. If that number makes you uncomfortable, good — that’s exactly why this conversation matters. “The Secret” isn’t your typical leadership book stacked with theory and jargon. It’s a business fable — the story of Debbie Brewster, a newly promoted executive who’s drowning in low morale, high turnover, and a team that’s losing faith in her. Her mentor hands her one deceptively simple truth: great leaders serve. That’s servant leadership in action, and it plays out through the five practices of the SERVE model — seeing the future, engaging and developing others, reinventing continuously, valuing both results and relationships, and embodying the values you claim to hold. What makes this conversation especially powerful is who’s sitting across from me. Mark Miller didn’t study servant leadership from a distance — he lived it. He walked into Chick-fil-A as the company’s 16th employee, starting out in the warehouse and mailroom, and spent the next 45 years working his way up through Corporate Communications, Field Operations, and Training and Development before retiring as Vice President of High-Performance Leadership. That’s a quarter century spent directing research and initiatives worth tens of millions of dollars to figure out, test, and validate what actually works when you’re trying to lead people well.  This is a man who has been in the trenches — which means today’s conversation isn’t theory, it’s tested truth. So here’s what we’ll be digging into together: why so many capable, hardworking managers still fail to lead effectively — and what the small percentage who practice true servant leadership are doing differently. We’ll talk about what it really means to “see the future” as a leader, why reinventing yourself never stops being optional, and how you rebuild trust and credibility once it’s been damaged.  Whether you’re leading a team of two or two thousand, this episode is going to hand you a servant leadership framework you can start using before the day is over. If you would like engage Mark’s services you can call him on his cell phone directly: 678-612-8441 or email Mark, mark@leadeveryday.com Ken Blanchard & Mark Miller‘s book, “The Secret: What Great Leaders Know and Do, , 4th Edition, Revised and Expanded” is what I would refer to as a timeless guide for those seeking to be great leaders.  Why do I say timeless?  Because the principles in this book would work in the first century and will work any time in the future. I had never read the previous versions of the book, so I do not know what to compare it to, but I can tell you that was fundamental mind shifts in every single chapter.  The book is counter-intuitive for those leaders that believe they must be in control.  Yes, you need to be valuing results, but if you want your leadership to translate into great results you need to value those relationships both inside and outside of your organization or business. You have probably heard the term “servant leadership”.  But you may have not really thought how a leader actually serves others.  Well, this is where the book sets itself apart from other books.  It doesn’t just talk about it as a philosophical ideal, but puts into practical terms that translate into greater profits, and truly having a great team. I truly enjoyed reading every page of this book.  What I pulled from The Secret was more than a great story that surrounded the main principles of SERVE, but also the valuable practical nuggets that made me think, and that I could apply to my own leadership immediately.  Do yourself and your business a huge favor and get it.

ABOUT YOUR HOST Meet Jay Izso Executive Performance Coach  |  Host of A New Direction Every week on A New Direction, I sit down with CEOs, founders, and the researchers behind the science of leadership performance. The conversations go deep. We talk about the decisions that built companies, the mistakes that nearly destroyed them, and the personal breakthroughs that changed everything. But here's what most people don't know about me: the show is an extension of the work I do every day with executives behind closed doors. Who I Am I'm an Executive Performance Coach. I work with CEOs and founders of $5M-$50M companies who have hit a wall they can't explain. The marketing looks fine. The team is capable. The market is there. But the business won't move. The problem, almost every time, is the person running it. I find the personal behavioral patterns that are driving the business dysfunction. Then I help the CEO disrupt those patterns so the company can grow. That's it. No motivational platitudes. No vision boards. Diagnostics, intervention, results. Where This Comes From My approach comes from two places most coaches never set foot in. The farm. I grew up as a farmhand in Ithaca, Nebraska—population 100. I started working at nine years old. By the time I left for college, I'd spent a decade learning that you can't cheat the harvest, pain is part of the job, and the work has to get done whether you feel like it or not. I was fourteen the first time I had to castrate boars. Nobody was going to do it for me. That lesson never left: sometimes you have to do things afraid. The forensic psychology unit. In graduate school at Washington State University, I trained under Dr. Thomas Brigham—co-author of the Handbook of Applied Behavior Analysis—in a human behavior lab focused on real-world problems. I then served in a Clinical Psych II role at Eastern State Hospital in Medical Lake, Washington, a forensic setting where I conducted psychological evaluations of individuals charged with the most serious criminal offenses. Sixteen months assessing human behavior at its most extreme taught me how to cut through defenses, identify what's really driving someone's decisions, and see what they can't see in themselves.

The brewing scandal over the leak of private veterinary information from a federal-government portal is the subject of this pop-up episode of the Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Equine-law attorney Craig Robertson, technology expert Bill Blanchard and Horse Racing Nation's Ed DeRosa, all horseplayers, discuss the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority's case against Marshall Gramm. A member of The Jockey Club, Gramm was accused of misusing proprietary vet records via his access as a horse owner to a HISA portal. Robertson tackles the legal issues that face Gramm, HISA and perhaps others who might benefit from their own access to the vet portal. Blanchard weighs in on just how secure the HISA data may or may not have been. DeRosa provides updates on his reporting of the story and considers the ripples it may have across the racing industry and for horseplayers. The episode opens with a timeline on how the scheme came together and HISA's investigation of it.

Will Blanchard shares the four characteristics found in churches that consistently multiply leaders, disciples, and new churches. Drawing from years of church planting experience and doctoral research, he explains why fewer than one-half of one percent of churches in North America are truly multiplying—and what every church leader can learn from them. Will serves as Teaching Pastor and Multiplication Team Leader at Fellowship Bible Church in Northwest Arkansas, where he helps equip leaders to plant churches and build multiplying ministries. In this conversation with Greg Nettle, he unpacks the four vital components that emerged through years of studying multiplying churches across North America. Together, they discuss how churches can intentionally build a multiplication-focused identity, develop a disciple-making culture, create leadership pipelines, and establish clear pathways for assessing, equipping, and sending church planters. Rather than relying on programs or quick fixes, Will demonstrates how multiplication becomes part of a church's DNA through intentional leadership and long-term investment in people. Whether you're planting a new church, leading an established congregation, or hoping to become a more sending-oriented church, this episode offers practical principles to help your ministry move beyond growth and toward lasting Kingdom multiplication.

Joe Way and Nancy Blanchard take over the show, turn it into an unexpected crossover episode, and have the kind of honest AV conversation that could never have been planned.Nancy, Territory Sales Manager for ScreenBeam, joins Joe to discuss her long-standing connection to the higher education AV community and why supporting HETMA has remained important throughout her career. She explains why successful manufacturer relationships must be built around education, trust, and understanding the customer's actual challenges—not simply pushing products or reading through a list of technical specifications.The conversation explores why applications and installations matter more than feature dumps, how manufacturers should evaluate and act upon customer feedback, and why higher education institutions need direct access to product roadmaps, beta programs, and the people making development decisions. Nancy also shares how ScreenBeam approaches enterprise-grade wireless presentation, security, customer requests, digital signage, and the continued development of its platform.Joe and Nancy then turn their attention to consultants, integrators, architects, and manufacturers. They examine where projects can go wrong, how competing priorities influence system designs, and why every participant in the process must remain focused on protecting the end user from the beginning of a project through its completion.The episode closes with a spirited rapid round covering hardware versus software, classrooms versus conference rooms, Teams versus Zoom, wired versus wireless systems, standardization, ISE, artificial intelligence, video bars, professional responsiveness, and whether “good enough AV” can sometimes truly be good enough.It is spontaneous, occasionally argumentative, deeply personal, and exactly what happens when two friends from the AV industry are handed microphones with no real plan.Connect with Nancy BlanchardFind Nancy on LinkedIn and X at @NancyBlanchard.Email: nblanchard@screenbeam.comLearn more about ScreenBeam and its enterprise wireless presentation, collaboration, and digital signage solutions at ScreenBeam.com.

The fight over AI data centers has entered a disturbing new phase. The developers and local government officials are becoming more fascistic, immoral, and dishonest in their effort to avoid public scrutiny and opposition. Oklahoma farmer and grassroots activist Darren Blanchard joins me to expose how Big Tech developers and government officials are allegedly using intimidation, deception, and political pressure to force massive AI data center projects into rural America. After speaking just seconds beyond his allotted time at a local council meeting, Blanchard was arrested. But that wasn't the biggest revelation. Through public records requests, he uncovered what appeared to be hundreds of fraudulent emails sent to local officials using the names of real residents to manufacture public support for a controversial data center project. Some residents say they never sent the emails. One reportedly came from a deceased individual. We also cover the connection between data centers, solar projects, and land acquisition, and why farmers are raising concerns about the threats to food production. Finally, we get political and discuss the future of grassroots resistance to Big Tech and how it might spawn a new party.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Recorded at the Paris School of Economics-CEPR Policy Forum 2026. Europe is under attack from the US, and under a different kind of attack from China.That is Olivier Blanchard's diagnosis. Blanchard (MIT, Paris School of Economics, Peterson Institute) is one of four economists leading Europe 2050, a new CEPR initiative asking where Europe wants to be in 25 years, and how it gets there. Blanchard's overriding principle: a vision without plumbing goes nowhere, and plumbing without vision is just reacting to the next tweet.Who can combine the vision and the plumbing, and produce ideas that we haven't seen before? Europe might be short of solutions to its current malaise, but it is not short of people with ideas: the project sent out 50 invitations for policy papers. Blanchard expected 30 replies. He got 48.The research behind this episode:Blanchard, Olivier, Pascal Lamy, Enrico Letta, and Beatrice Weder di Mauro. 2026. "Europe 2050: Geometries of Peace, Power, and Prosperity." VoxEU column, CEPR, 16 March 2026.The CEPR Europe 2050 initiative launched by Blanchard, Lamy, Letta and Weder di Mauro is generating a rolling series of commissioned policy papers and shorter open call submissions. The full set of contributions can be found at cepr.org/europe-2050-geometries-peace-power-and-prosperity.To cite this episode:Phillips, Tim, and Olivier Blanchard. 2026. "Europe in 2050." VoxTalks Economics (podcast). About the guestOlivier Blanchard is the Robert M. Solow Professor of Economics emeritus at MIT, Professor of Economics at the Paris School of Economics, and Senior Fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics. He is a CEPR Distinguished Fellow. Blanchard's research spans macroeconomics, monetary and fiscal policy, and the economics of European integration; he was chief economist and director of research at the IMF from 2008 to 2015. Research cited in this episodeEurope 2050: Geometries of Peace, Power, and Prosperity is the CEPR initiative behind this episode, launched by Blanchard, Lamy, Letta and Weder di Mauro. It commissions longer policy papers and runs an open call for shorter pieces, five to fifteen pages, on what Europe should aspire to become by 2050. Blanchard describes it as a box of tools rather than a single blueprint, deliberately open to contributors who disagree on fundamentals, including whether Europe should become a federation.The Draghi report refers to Mario Draghi's 2024 report for the European Commission, The Future of European Competitiveness. It diagnosed Europe's weak productivity growth, fragmented capital markets and insufficient scale financing for innovative firms. Blanchard contrasts it with Europe 2050, which he says is not trying to produce a similarly prescriptive plan.The Letta report refers to Enrico Letta's 2024 report Much More Than a Market, commissioned by the European Council, which set out proposals for deepening the EU single market. Letta is one of the four leaders of Europe 2050."Getting to Denmark" is a concept popularised by the political scientist Francis Fukuyama in his 2011 book The Origins of Political Order, describing the temptation to picture a distant, well governed destination without a plan for the institutional steps needed to reach it. Is this a risk for Europe 2050?Schengen is raised by Blanchard as a working example of a "coalition of the willing": a group of countries, not all of them EU members, that agreed to abolish border controls between themselves without waiting for unanimous agreement across the whole Union. He points to it as a template for how Europe might make progress on other issues where full consensus is unlikely.More VoxTalks Economics episodesThis episode was recorded at the Paris School of Economics-CEPR Policy Forum 2026, alongside a series of conversations with forum speakers.Europe in the Middle, the previous episode, features Pol Antràs and Beata Javorcik on how the US-China trade war is reshaping trade flows into Europe, and who wins and loses from it.Related reading on VoxEUEurope's challenge and opportunity: Building coalitions of the willing, a VoxEU column by Blanchard and Jean Pisani-Ferry, sets out the coalition of the willing idea in more detail, working through how it might apply to climate, trade and tax policy.Capitalising on Europe's strengths, a VoxEU column by Debora Revoltella and colleagues at the European Investment Bank, looks at what Europe already does well and how policy can build on it rather than only cataloguing weaknesses.Addressing European competitiveness: Investment, integration, and simplification, another VoxEU column from the European Investment Bank, sets out the scale of Europe's investment gap and where past bursts of EU investment have come from.EU capital markets reform should focus on innovation investment, a VoxEU column, argues that capital markets union, a project Blanchard mentions in the episode, should be judged by whether it gets money to innovative firms, not just by market integration for its own sake.
