Episode: 1453 Christiaan and Constantijn Huygens, and John Donne.  Today, a tale of two Huygens and John Donne.

Sometimes the best businesses don’t start with a big plan. They start with nothing: no money, no equipment, no idea what you’re doing. Just a problem to solve, a skill in your back pocket, and the determination to figure it out. That’s how Christiaan's two guests on this edition of Out to Lunch ended up where they are. One is making home furnishings from scraps. The other turned a pine tree into a broadband company. Both, you might say, made something from nothing. Matthew Latiolais is the owner of Cajun Salvage Company. Matthew grew up in Lafayette and got his first lesson in welding at sixteen from a boatbuilder — thanks to his grandfather, who volunteered him for the job. After college, Matthew spent his early career in the oilfield, but when the industry hit a downturn, he found himself sending out résumés to nowhere. Eventually, he decided the only thing left to do was work for himself. In 2015, Matthew founded Cajun Salvage, a shop specializing in woodworking, metal fabrication, and architectural salvage. His first jobs came from tearing down barns and reclaiming materials. Now he builds everything from custom cabinets to cypress tables to barn doors — often based on whatever clients find on Pinterest. He’s also a Master Craftsman and a member of the Louisiana Crafts Guild. Chris Disher is Managing Director of Cajun Broadband. Chris is a mechanical engineer by training, born in Ponchatoula and raised in Morgan City. He spent more than two decades in oil and gas, living and working all over the world. When Chris and his family moved to a blueberry farm in St. Martin Parish, they ran into a different kind of problem: terrible internet. Chris’s kids begged him to sell the farm and move to the city, but instead Chris and a friend stuck an antenna in a pine tree and got 60 megabits per second. That was the start of Cajun Broadband. Founded in 2017, the company now provides fiber and wireless internet to nine parishes, and employs 10 people. Cajun Broadband grew even faster through state and federal broadband grants: the company landed a $26 million grant to connect 9,000 homes. Chris says they started in a tree, and now their service is faster than some city providers. Chris and Matthew's business histories, though as different as analog wood and digital fiber, are both proof that sometimes the best way forward is to stop waiting for someone else to solve the problem, and just build the solution yourself. It doesn't get much more Cajun than that. And that's how you get Cajun Salvage and Cajun Broadband. Out to Lunch Acadiana was recorded live over lunch at Tsunami Sushi in downtown Lafayette.

Wellness isn’t just kale smoothies and yoga classes anymore. It’s mushrooms as brain boosters, IV drips for recovery, tinctures, biohacking, and more. These trends aren’t fringe, they’re big business, generating $1.8 trillion in U.S. sales alone in 2024. And they’re on the move in Acadiana too. Christiaan's guests on this edition of Out to Lunch are building businesses in Acadiana riding these same waves — functional mushrooms, hydration therapies, supplements, biohacking — they all are part of wellness, and more than a buzzword. Daisy Kerne is co-founder of All Caps Gourmet Mushrooms, founded in 2019 with Michael Campbell. Daisy’s from Loreauville, Louisiana, though she moved back and forth between there and Lafayette during her youth. Daisy studied plant science at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette and balances her time between her mushroom business, doing food demos, and nutrition counseling for cardiac rehab patients. As a single parent, she managed multiple gigs while homeschooling, and when Michael asked, “Hey, do you want to grow mushrooms?”, she took a leap. Their current operations include fresh mushrooms, tinctures, seasoning blends, workshops, and growing kits. DeAnna Smith is founder of Dripsy IV Bar. DeAnna is originally from Pineville, Louisiana, holds a business administration & marketing degree, then became an RN after an accident involving an 18-wheeler changed her perspective. She started doing IV hydration on weekends while working as an insurance case nurse. Deanna gradually built a waitlist for IV treatments, and in 2024 opened the first brick-and-mortar Dripsy IV Bar in Alexandria. That’s Dripsy…as in “everybody in the club getting dripsy.” Since then, Dripsy has grown to three new locations, including adding outposts in Lafayette and Lake Charles in 2025. Dripsy offers IV drips, weight loss options, shots, telehealth, peptide treatments, and biohacking services. Out to Lunch Acadiana was recorded live over lunch at Tsunami Sushi in downtown Lafayette.

ENJOY!

These psalms touch on the topic of grief, for the community and ourselves. Grief hurts, and can feel like a lonely wilderness, but we need to grieve and acknowledge that all is not well. By sowing our tears like seeds we can grow in sharing, slowing down, letting go, and gain joy and freedom as we bring everything into God's presence. To bring healing to our grief we are to look to Jesus, who entered our wilderness and experienced grief, crying with us and for us. But our pain and loss is not the end of the story as the cross brings hope and confidence in the future, coming from his unfailing love.

The Okavango Delta of Northern Botswana is an absolute wildlife mecca and without a doubt one of the most naturally wild places on Earth. Elephants, buffalo, lion, leopard, hippo, crocs, cheetah, kudu, lechwe, giraffe, the Okavango has it all.   Dr Christiaan Winterbach has spent well over 25 years of his life researching the lions of this wonderful area, from gathering data to determining population sizes, territories, habits and more. I had a great conversation with Christiaan and learning more about these large beasts in the massive wildlife area.   Enjoy!   Rate & Review....Thanks

De teleurstelling is groot bij George Simion, de radicaal rechtse presidentskandidaat in Roemenië die gisteravond onverwacht de verkiezingen niet won. Aanvankelijk claimde hij nog de overwinning, en eerder tijdens de campagne sprak hij over mogelijke stembusfraude, maar uiteindelijk legde hij zich toch bij zijn verlies neer.  De presidentsverkiezingen in Roemenië vonden dit weekend onder hoogspanning plaats na een meer dan turbulente aanloop, vanwege mogelijke Russische inmenging. Niemand had verwacht dat de pro-Europese Nicosar Dan er met de winst vandoor zou gaan. In deze podcast vertelt Christiaan Paauwe, correspondent Midden- en Oost Europa, over de enorme opluchting bij aanhangers van Dan. Sommigen droegen de vlag van de Roemeense revolutie bij zich. 'Voor hen voelt dit als een zachte revolutie tegen de opmars van radicale politici in Roemenië.' Net als eerder in Canada en in Duitsland lijkt er in Roemenie in die zin nu sprake van een negatief Trump-effect.  Maar, zegt Christiaan, de samenleving blijft enorm gepolariseerd en er is veel wantrouwen. Wantrouwen dat nu bovendien gevoed wordt door Rusland dat in een reactie de verkiezingsuitslag van een  NAVO-, EU- en Oekraïnegezinde kandidaat in twijfel trekt. De uitslag is "op zijn minst merkwaardig", zegt Kremlin-woordvoerder Peskov. Reageren? Mail dedag@nos.nl Presentatie en montage: Elisabeth Steinz Redactie: Sid van der Linden

Where can you create care and connection in unexpected places?...Chistiaan Rhodius is a Dutch doctor specialized in palliative medicine. Together with his wife and four children he currently lives and works in Oslo (Norway). He is convinced that 'if we ignore death we miss out on life'. He is passionate for stories and the shaping of new stories (through the process of improvisation). At this moment he explores ways of how the artwork of Edvard Munch can stimulate our storytelling. Today, Abbie and Christiaan explore Christiaan's work in palliative care and the perspective that has emerged out of his experience. Christiaan introduces the Patient Dignity Question- What do I need to know about you as a person in order for me to give you the best possible care? Abbie and Christiaan discuss improvisation as “plan A,” navigating “tender conversations,” and the “palliative paradox."...Stories Lived.

With phishing and password breaches on the rise, passkeys could offer a more secure, user-friendly solution that could reshape how we protect our online identities. Today's guest is Christiaan Brand. Christiaan is the co-founder of Entersekt, a financial services security firm and a key player at Google in their security and identity teams.  A respected voice in cybersecurity, Christian co-chairs the FIDO2 technical working group focusing on standardizing robust online security protocols in advancing the use of passkeys. He has been at the forefront of the shift toward more secure, password-free systems. We'll hear his insights on the challenges and opportunities of implementing passkeys to create safer online environments for users and organizations. Show Notes: [00:52] - Christiaan is part of the security team for Google accounts. He's been with Google for 9 years. Prior to that he had a startup. [01:30] - He joined the FIDO Alliance around the same time Google joined in 2013. When he joined Google, he was able to continue with the same type of work. [02:35] - Each of the big tech companies represents a portion of the market when it comes to how we interact with the web and apps. [04:06] - He became interested in security when he started thinking about what could go wrong with new technology solutions. He wanted users to be able to access their financial information in a safe and secure way. [05:06] - 2FA began gaining traction with Google in 2011. It coincided with the launch of Google Authenticator. 2FA was also used by a gaming company. [07:54] - Usability is important, that's why having an app that displays the codes was one of the first forays into making the technology more accessible. [08:34] - Passkeys allow us to move beyond passwords, leaving the extra hassle of traditional multi-factor authentication behind. [11:05] - Key fobs were one of the earlier ways to try and bring usability to security. Now the technology is being moved to smartphones. [12:33] - Passkeys are a replacement for a password manager. [13:35] - Passkeys are extremely long and asymmetric in nature. You and the site you're going to both have the passkey. [14:27] - The service will have the public part of the passkey, and you'll have the private part. Even if the public part leaks out, your passkey will still be secure. Passkeys can never be revealed to phishing sites. [15:47] - FIDO brings the second authentication step in. The service also has to identify themselves. [20:04] - Password managers try to balance security and convenience. Logging in or accessing a passkey is a unique challenge for providers. [22:20] - Phone numbers are a way to get users back into their accounts. [25:19] - Single device users have extra challenges. [26:08] - There are pros and cons to external sources of identity. [29:44] - The FIDO website has many certified solutions. [33:21] - To get passkeys into daily users' lives, we need to start using them on daily applications where we log in frequently. [35:49] - Hopefully this passkey solution will stand the test of time. [37:34] - Attacks are beginning to shift to session hijacking. [38:24] - DBSC or device-based session credentials is a new standard parallel to FIDO. Thanks for joining us on Easy Prey.

When you hear the word "franchise" you probably think golden arches or a pepperoni pizza. But franchises can be as creative and personal as any small business. Today we’re diving into two different ways of running a business. On one side, you’ve got a franchisee — a business owner who taps into an established brand and system. On the other, a self-starter — someone who builds a business from scratch, learning and growing every step of the way. Christiaan's lunch guests today represent both paths, and both are thriving here in Lafayette. Joe Thomas is the owner of a local Frios Gourmet Pops, a franchise specializing in “happiness on a stick.” Before Frios, Joe worked for a manufacturing company. He got laid off in 2023. While on the job hunt, he explored striking out on his own. Maybe as a restaurateur or a landscaper. He landed on the idea of running a franchise, discovering Frios with a Google search. He was sold and launched his own franchise in 2023. Spreading happiness on a stick involves Joe operating a van, pushcart and mini cooler to sell Frios gourmet pops at local events and festivals. He sells about 1,700 pops a month. Born and raised in New Orleans, Joe came to Lafayette for school, earning degrees in electrical engineering and automotive technology. Outside of work, he’s an active member of the community — volunteering at his church, running with shelter dogs at Animal Aid, and tutoring kids in math and science. For many small business owners, the dream might be to start a franchise. Others might find themselves building one just to chase runaway demand. Caroline Merryman fell into baking cookies during the pandemic. She delivered them to friends and soon found herself taking orders on Instagram. Six months later, she opened a storefront for Caroline’s Cookies. When people started lining up around the block to buy her cookies, Caroline decided to drop out of school and focus on her business full time. Today, Caroline’s Cookies has become a legitimate business success: Caroline operates three locations: two in Baton Rouge and her OG shop in Lafayette. Despite the growth, Caroline still puts a personal touch on the business. Each week, she picks a random Lafayette business and shows up with a batch of warm, gooey chocolate chip cookies. It’s a great way to spread kindness, and her brand. Out to Lunch Acadiana was recorded live over lunch at Tsunami Sushi in downtown Lafayette.
