What does it take to scale a business from a single restaurant in Kentucky to a nationally recognized brand? Few people understand that blueprint better than Lee Greer, President of Greer Companies - the force behind Cheddar's national expansion, the real estate portfolio that underpins the company, and the global rise of Activate through Sounds Fun Entertainment.In this episode of DevelopLex, Weston and Ross sit down with Lee to unpack the strategy, discipline, and culture that have defined Greer Companies for decades. From raising hundreds of millions on Wall Street to working every station in a Cheddar's kitchen, Lee shares how those experiences shaped the systems-driven, people-first approach that he now applies across restaurants, entertainment concepts, and real estate development.Lee breaks down the story behind the Cheddar's exit - including the last-minute negotiation move that added $72 million to the deal - and how that capital helped fuel significant projects in Lexington like City Center. He also explains why Activate became the perfect next venture: a concept built on physical and mental challenges, designed for repeat play, and structured with low labor and no cost of goods.In this episode, you'll hear:- How Wall Street deal-making trained Lee to think in scale, systems, and returns- Why Cheddar's succeeded through culture, consistency, and operational discipline- The behind-the-scenes story of the Cheddar's exit and how it reshaped Greer Companies- Why Activate's experiential model is built for global growth and why it works- How real estate remains the backbone of Lee's long-term investment strategy- What Lexington needs to unlock its next stage of intentional growthHosted by ⁠⁠⁠Weston Lockhart⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠Ross Boggess⁠⁠⁠DevelopLex is proud to be supported by:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SVN Stone Commercial Real Estate⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Community Trust Bank⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Craftsman Contractors⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bowman⁠

In this episode of The Spine Pod, hosts Courtney Schutze and Brady Riesgraf sit down with Dr. Kamal Woods, a double fellowship-trained surgeon in both orthopedics and neurosurgery, and founder of Vertrae® in Miamisburg, Ohio.   Dr. Woods received his medical degree from Loma Linda University School of Medicine and completed a fellowship in minimally invasive and complex spine surgery from Cedars‑Sinai Medical Center. He later earned his MBA from Johns Hopkins Carey Business School, further deepening his understanding of the complex healthcare ecosystem and how to improve it. Since then, he has gone on to build a patient-centered practice rooted in the belief that one size does not fit all when it comes to spine care. Whether a patient needs a non‑surgical treatment, minimally invasive surgery, or motion‑preserving option, the goal remains the same: restore mobility, alleviate pain, and help patients return to what they love most.   Throughout the episode, Dr. Woods shares his philosophy of combining surgical precision with compassionate, personalized care. He also discusses the importance of having a full “toolbox” of treatments, from conservative care and robotic‑assisted techniques to artificial disc replacement, and why patient education and shared decision‑making are essential. He goes on to share how his background, far from conventional, has shaped his patient‑first mindset and his vision for modern spine care.   In this episode, you'll learn: Why motion preservation is more than a trend, it's about protecting function and long-term quality of life. How insurance and reimbursement barriers can impact patient care, and the changes needed to move the field forward. Why outpatient, motion-preserving spine care is gaining momentum and what it takes to build a successful model. How Dr. Woods prioritizes patients through individualized treatment plans for those dealing with chronic leg and back pain. Why enabling technologies such as navigation and robotics are expanding into more surgical facilities. How Vertrae® is driving local innovation through education, community events, and an empowering patient-centered care model.   Drawing on his childhood roots in Saint Vincent, his surgical training in California, and the practice he's built in Ohio, Dr. Woods is shaping an innovative spine care model centered on motion preservation—designed to help patients return to the activities they love, all in one integrated setting. Whether you're a surgeon focused on emerging technologies, an industry professional tracking care trends, or a patient seeking clarity in a crowded spine landscape, this episode delivers compelling insights on how treatment pathways are shifting and how modern practice models are evolving.   Learn more about Dr. Woods: Vertrae: https://vertrae.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kamal-woods-md-mba-89172682/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vertrae.inc/?hl=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KamalWoodsMD YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/ ⁨@vertrae360⁩   You can find The Spine Pod on all Podcast Streaming Platforms, including: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheSpinePod Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0DBzWfVt1ExQE0qTjhOERa?si=EEBPwQgRQSujyZsaXnJagA Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-spine-pod/id1745442311 Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/98fd41ad-75ee-4371-bb70-c5b274324a47/the-spine-pod?ref=dm_sh_kmfvSHB5iY109GDslhiJul22E iHeart Radio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-the-spine-pod-174320414?cmp=ios_share&sc=ios_social_share&pr=false&autoplay=true Follow The Spine Pod to learn more about the latest episodes and happenings in the world of motion preservation: ⁠ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?...

Send us a textReady to name the fear behind a big career leap? We start with the uncomfortable truth: stepping into leadership is hard when you've rarely seen anyone who looks like you survive and thrive there. That honesty opens a wide-angle look at credibility, negotiation, and why “director” should be a strategic choice, not a trap. You'll hear practical pay tactics, a clear-eyed read on gender politics, and a call to claim the audacity usually reserved for the loudest voices in the room while anchoring everything in real delivery.We pivot into brand strategy with a surgical breakdown of Fenty Beauty, LVMH, and the “core asset test.” What happens when a revolutionary launch becomes industry standard and the parent company cares most about Sephora and Dior? The answer matters to every founder: positioning must live beyond a single hook, and product lines should pass the test of whether they strengthen your core. Still, Rihanna's two-billion-dollar empire stands as a masterclass in ownership, reminding us that downside cycles don't erase value when you build for longevity.Authenticity in entrepreneurship gets a frank treatment access, capital, and networks change the starting line. We separate story from spin so creators can plan with clarity. Then we look outward: a UN spotlight on persecution in Nigeria, the Sahel's power realignment, and why humanitarian language can mask resource strategy. Closer to home, we press on London's EV congestion charge and how shifting justifications erode policy trust. Finally, we talk about the UK's curriculum overhaul AI literacy, oracy, and media scepticism to prepare young people for a world where synthesis beats rote learning. And yes, we celebrate the launch of Sister Scribble, a premium stationery brand designed to bring back tactile creativity and intention.If this conversation pushes you to ask better questions about your next move career, company, or community hit follow, share with a friend who needs the nudge, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway.

This is the first in a series of four episodes regarding America's toxic history with xenophobia.  This first episode exams the discrimination that white Europeans experienced as they attempted to assimilate to their new nation's culture.  Germans, Irish, and Italians receive special focus as each deals with the nativist backlash as they attempted to "prove" their whiteness.  The rise of the Know Nothings and the creation of the pseudo-scientific eugenics movement serve as inspiration for the rising Nazi movement in Germany.

Ever feel like you're close to breaking 75, but can't quite put all the pieces together?In this episode, Scott reveals the five non-negotiable elements that separate hopeful ball-strikers from consistent scorers: a reliable pre-shot routine, precise alignment, equipment understanding, the ability to shape the ball both ways, and intentional practice. These aren't just skills — they are the foundation of learning your tendencies, refining your patterns, and ultimately developing the clarity and control required to perform with ownership and confidence.When you build a repeatable routine, you gain control under pressure. When your alignment is precise, you eliminate guesswork. When your equipment matches your movement, your swing works with you, not against you. When you can shape the ball both directions, you gain strategic freedom instead of relying on luck. And when you practice with intent, every rep has purpose and produces progress instead of plateaus.Master these five and performance becomes predictable, confident, and repeatable — the true path to Own Your SSWING.

Beliefs are the invisible architects behind every decision, every pivot, and every result you create. They don't start as plans but as whispers of possibility.

In episode 150, we dig into the blueprint for turning red turf blue with movement-builders Jennifer Austin and Sarah Schulz. The duo from the Beyond Resistance Podcast explains the steps, strategies, and first actions that help local organizers build lasting power.Jennifer Austin and Sarah Schulz are the not-yet-famous-but-fiercely-effective duo behind the Beyond Resistance Podcast, where they dish hard-won lessons on flipping red turf blue. Jennifer—a strategic powerhouse who turned the Midland County Dems into a fundraising, vote-winning machine—has the numbers and receipts to prove that organizing can reshape a Republican stronghold. Sarah—an unflinching activist, former State House candidate, and professional GOP nightmare—has led rallies, spooked incumbents, and built a movement in the reddest parts of Michigan. Together, they're building blue power in red communities—and they're just getting started.Jennifer volunteered a few too many times, prompting Democratic voters to ask her to run for chair of the local party. Under her leadership, the MCDP increased their email list by 216%, their membership by 285%, and their fundraising by 400%! They've flipped the city of Midland and kept it blue 3 election cycles in a row and are working on that red, red county.Sarah was a founding leader of the Women of Michigan Action Network, prompting 1500 people to join the Indivisible organization in a red county of 80k. She ran for office 3 times, losing by 2 points but shifting the district 10 points blue, and becoming the top House fundraiser in the state of Michigan at $500k for a previously safe GOP seat.Resources: * Beyond Resistance Blueprint* Beyond Resistance Website* Instagram* TikTok* YouTube* Facebook* X/TwitterConnect with USS:* Substack* Instagram* TikTok* ThreadsThis episode was edited by Kevin Tanner.

He breaks down Blueprint as a practical on-ramp with evidence-based health, behavior, and social habits. We finish on crypto, from his Braintree days with Coinbase to how web3 could power a broad “don't die” commons. ------

Do you have these signs of longevity in your birth chart? Get your free chart at https://www.QuietmindAstrology.com/freebirthchartLongevity, lifespan, vitality and fate meet right at the crossroads of the eighth house in Vedic astrology — and today I explore what we can and cannot see through the chart. This question comes up a lot: can astrology show how long someone will live? In this episode, I share how Jyotish approaches longevity with humility and wisdom, and why the goal is never prediction out of fear but understanding the deeper forces that shape the way we move through life.Over last weekend Brian Johnson, the founder of Blueprint, streamed an entire mushroom journey “for longevity.” He's trying to reverse aging through data, discipline and extreme experimentation. And while his mission can look a little intense from the outside, there are clear signatures in his Vedic chart — especially his Scorpio Moon and likely Jyeshta nakshatra — that reveal exactly why he's drawn to this kind of work.I walk you through what we know from his birth date (August 22, 1977), even without a birth time, and how his eighth house placements point to transformation, protection, curiosity about death and rebirth, and the desire to push the limits of human potential. This episode is less about Brian himself and more about how you can use these same principles to understand your own relationship with vitality, energy, and the cycles of life.Key ideas from this episode:• “In Vedic astrology, we never use longevity to predict fear. We use it to understand how your life force wants to express itself.”• “The eighth house isn't just death — it's transformation, depth, research and the mysteries that pull us inward.”• “A Scorpio Moon needs intensity and purpose. The mind wants a job, and Brian gives his mind a big one.”• “Jyeshta literally translates to ‘the eldest.' His entire brand is built around trying to become the oldest.”• “You don't need extreme protocols to support longevity. You just need alignment, breath, and awareness of your own nature.”If you want to explore these patterns in your own life, you can get your free Vedic birth chart and training below.

The DeLorean's still parked under the blue lights — and in Episode 2 of Shot of Nostalgia: Season 7 – The SmackDown Six Era, we're stepping into the stretch where SmackDown built its identity. Acefield Retro breaks down Blueprint of Greatness, when Paul Heyman's creative direction started to take form. By late 2002, Raw leaned on promos and spectacle, while SmackDown focused on matches that told stories and defined characters. This episode features a watch-along of Edge vs. Eddie Guerrero (No DQ, 9/26/02) — a match that shows exactly how the SmackDown Six style came to life: physical, precise, and built on timing and trust. Also covered: • Angle vs. Mysterio at SummerSlam 2002 — A showcase of what WWE's new in-ring standard could be. • Angle & Benoit vs. Edge & Rey (8/29 SmackDown) — The match that revealed the SmackDown Six chemistry. • Los Guerreros form as a team — Eddie and Chavo add humor, arrogance, and cohesion to the division. • Tag Team Championship Tournament announcement — The moment Heyman's structure became official. By September, SmackDown wasn't trying to compete with Raw — it had its own rhythm, purpose, and storytelling approach. Presented by The Turnbuckle Tavern, where nostalgia meets conversation. Follow @TurnbuckleTavern and @AcefieldRetro for updates. Support the show on Patreon.com/TheTurnbuckleTavern for early access, bonus episodes, and exclusive content for just $2.99 a month. New episodes air Fridays at 7 PM ET. Grab a seat, pour one up, and revisit the months where SmackDown built the Blueprint of Greatness.
