Golden Lund holds three degrees in music from the University of Utah, Indiana University and the University of Nebraska. He is currently a music instructor at St. Ambrose University in Davenport, Iowa, where he helps direct the marching band, pep band, and teaches tuba and other brass instruments. He also performs regularly on the tuba with a semi-professional orchestra in Lincoln, Nebraska. Golden was recently released as a bishop and served in several leadership capacities previously including elders quorum president, high priest group leader, Young Men president, and on his stake high council. Golden and his wife Sandy have been married for 17 years and are the proud parents of two children—a daughter and son who are 12-year-old twins and amaze them every day. Links Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Highlights In this episode of the Leading Saints podcast, Kurt interviews Golden, a former bishop from Bettendorf, Iowa, who shares his experiences and insights from his five-year tenure in leadership during the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic. The conversation focuses on mental health, vulnerability in leadership, and the importance of community support. Key Insights: Mental Health Awareness: Golden discusses his struggles with mental health, particularly during a significant crash after a year and a half of service. He emphasizes the importance of seeking help and the positive impact of counseling and medication. Vulnerability in Leadership: By sharing his personal challenges with his ward, Golden fostered a culture of openness, encouraging others to share their struggles and creating a supportive environment. The Sariah Factor: Golden introduces the concept of the Sariah Factor, highlighting the need for leaders to trust their perspective and discernment, even when others may not understand the decisions being made. Delegation and Empowerment: He shares how he empowered his ward leaders, such as the Relief Society and Elders Quorum presidents, to take on responsibilities, which helped alleviate his workload and fostered a sense of ownership among leaders. Community Support: Golden underscores the importance of community, noting that members often overlook the challenges faced by their leaders. Simple expressions of gratitude can significantly uplift those in leadership roles. Leadership Applications: Encourage Open Communication: Leaders should create an environment where members feel comfortable sharing their struggles, which can strengthen community bonds and support. Prioritize Mental Health: Leaders should recognize the importance of mental health and seek help when needed, setting an example for others to do the same. Empower Others: By delegating responsibilities and trusting ward leaders, bishops can manage their workload more effectively while fostering leadership skills in others, ultimately benefiting the entire ward. 05:32 - Calling as Bishop During COVID-19 07:18 - Navigating Early Days as Bishop 08:58 - Demographics of the Ward 10:45 - Reflection on Serving as Bishop 11:19 - Responsibilities of a Bishop 15:43 - Challenges and Overwhelm in Leadership 17:00 - Mental Health Struggles and Support 20:05 - Finding Help and Guidance 21:57 - The Importance of Vulnerability in Leadership 30:02 - Opening Up to the Ward About Struggles 33:44 - The Sariah Factor in Leadership Decisions 38:21 - Examples of Leadership Challenges 49:02 - The Messiness of Revelation in Leadership 51:19 - Normalizing Struggles in Leadership The award-winning Leading Saints Podcast is one of the top independent Latter-day Saints podcasts as part of nonprofit Leading Saints' mission to help Latter-day Saints be better prepared to lead.

Aging is more than disease—it's the steady decline of function. In this episode of Longevity by Design, Dr. Gil Blander speaks with physicist-turned-biotech innovator Dr. Peter Fedichev about why resilience, not diseases, holds the key to longer lives.Peter explains how his background in theoretical physics shaped his approach to biology and aging. He outlines why startups, not large institutions, are now leading innovation in longevity science. Drawing from physics, he describes aging as a series of “jumps” between states, each leaving the body more fragile.The discussion moves from the limits of current drugs to the promise of new approaches. Peter argues that reducing fluctuations and increasing molecular fidelity could unlock far greater gains in healthspan and lifespan. Listeners gain a fresh lens on what drives aging, where the real breakthroughs may come from, and why the next frontier in longevity will require rethinking the problem altogether.  Guest-at-a-Glance

We discuss: Why personal networks matter most when raising money quickly for big deals New investments in companies building genetically engineered animals, advanced airships, and solar-powered synthetic natural gas How real operational experience shapes the way we invest and support founders The balance of optimism and realism required to keep taking shots in business Quotes from Al: “Just keep taking the shots. A shooter's gotta shoot.” “Sometimes you take the shot, do everything right, and the ball still doesn't go in.” “There's no classy way to advertise, ‘Hey, your favorite store died—but we're a good rebound.'” “Capitalism is an unforgiving mistress.” “Personal relationships were the most valuable asset I had in that deal.” “Sometimes I think, ‘I should be inventing Facebook 2,' but here I am—investing in fabric.” “I've never worked on a deal that hard. It should have gone my way… and didn't.” “You wake up the next morning and it didn't happen, but I still have a great family, and my business is still running.” “It's hard until it isn't—and even when it isn't, it's still freaking hard.” Quotes from Bo: “We're actual operators—curious about what's possible with technology—and that makes us better investors.” “On a Thursday, ‘This deal is happening.' Then Tuesday? ‘It's over. We lost.'” “We have a unique amount of empathy for founders—because we know how hard this shit is.” “If you can pull it off, it's transformational. And that's awesome.” (on Airship) “A blimp is not a quadcopter to carry Al's big ass—it's an elegant, slow-moving blimp.” “There's a lot of industries still doing 90/10 in-store sales. That blew my mind.” “It's a real ‘software is eating the world' moment—but finally arriving at the mining industry.” “When you're building something that matters, you're playing the long game—even if the outcome is uncertain.” “The people who make glow-in-the-dark fish… now they're building unicorns. And yeah, it's gonna happen.”

Send us a textGold rushes change landscapes—both physical and human. When 100,000 settlers poured into Colorado Territory following the 1858 discovery of gold, they unknowingly set in motion a chain of events that would culminate in one of America's most controversial military actions. The newcomers' wagons followed water sources critical to both buffalo herds and the nomadic Plains Indians who depended on them for survival. As these resources vanished, tensions escalated into violence.Historian Jeff Broome takes us deep into the complexities of the Sand Creek Massacre, challenging simplified narratives through meticulous primary source research. His account traces the growing conflict through 1864—from the killing of Cheyenne Chief Lean Bear to the Hungate family murders to the failed Camp Weld peace conference. Each incident represents a thread in a complex tapestry of cultural misunderstanding, economic pressure, and political maneuvering.What makes Broome's perspective particularly valuable is his commitment to evidence over preconception. Despite discovering his own great-great-uncle fought with the 3rd Colorado Cavalry at Sand Creek, Broome maintains his dedication to letting archaeological findings and primary documents guide his conclusions. His willingness to revise established stories when evidence contradicts them—as with his discoveries at the Hungate massacre site—demonstrates true historical integrity. Most poignantly, Broome finds common ground with Native perspectives by acknowledging the profound cultural trauma of boarding schools that severed Indigenous peoples' connections to their ancestors by prohibiting their languages.Don't miss Dr. Broome's upcoming presentation on October 4th at the Dodge City Library, where he'll continue exploring these complex historical narratives.

Is copying in podcasting a cardinal sin or a necessary step towards finding your unique voice? Today, we're plunging into the murky waters of inspiration vs. imitation. We explore how new podcasters can learn from established shows without becoming carbon copies, and when 'borrowing' ideas crosses the line. Featuring a thought-provoking clip from Matt Bliss's 'Rethinking Podcasting,' we dissect what makes content truly original in a medium where 'there's nothing new under the sun.' We challenge the notion of prescriptive advice and discuss how pushing through the discomfort of learning leads to authentic creativity.

So are millennials really the unluckiest generation? Yes and no. At least according to their unofficial biographer, Charlie Wells, the energetic London based Bloomberg reporter and author of What Happened to Millennials. In a way, Wells is a defender of his much-maligned and misunderstood generation. But his new book is also a kind of confessional of five millennials who, in his view, represent the spirit of those who came of age at the turn of the century. Wells' own soulful mix of forthrightness and insecurity offers a glimpse into the millennial heart. Could it really be the ubiquitous electronic screen that is both the cause and effect of his generation's over-publicized struggles with anxiety? Or are millennials simply the first cohort to have their universal coming-of-age confessions broadcast live for all to see?1. Generational narratives are often outdated Wells argues that millennials are actually 31% wealthier than boomers were at the same age, but the "unlucky generation" story persists. This suggests we cling to generational myths even when underlying data changes.2. Technology made universal struggles visible Critical questioning revealed a core insight: millennial coming-of-age difficulties aren't unique - they're just the first to be documented and broadcast through social media. Previous generations had similar struggles without the surveillance.3. The "lived through" narrative is problematic Challenges to claims about "living through" 9/11 and the Great Recession exposed how generations can inflate shared cultural moments into defining traumas, even when most people weren't directly affected. This suggests we should scrutinize whether collective experiences truly shape entire cohorts or simply become convenient narratives.4. Confessional culture shapes identity Wells connected reality TV's "confessional" format to how millennials communicate - suggesting media formats influence how entire generations process and share experiences, from AOL Instant Messenger to social media oversharing.5. Economic inequality matters more than generational identity The wealth gap between rich and poor millennials ($100,000 wider than for boomers) suggests class divisions within the generation are more significant than generational differences between cohorts.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.
