And so, yeah, I just started, you know, watching the videos that pace is doing, but also reading the books that he suggested."   "We're looking forward to that. These properties that we're looking at are very good deals. It's hard to cash flow because properties are so expensive, expensive in Broward and Dade County."   "Ultimately we got the lease option, like an addendum, just as a safety mechanism originally, like everyone's always afraid to do on sale."   "It's really cool though, because the seller was ecstatic, like he thought he was trapped. He thought he's gonna have to write a big check, and instead he got, we got like 10 grand or something."   Timestamps: 00:00 - Introduction  01:48 - Jill Barkley's Background and Introduction 02:30 - Dustin Geroski's Background and Introduction 06:16 - Details of the Subto Deal 09:34 - Addressing Missing Appliances 12:27 - Lease Option Addendum and VA Loan Challenges 14:31 - Wiping Away the Debt-to-Income Ratio 17:19 - Successful Outcome for the Seller 20:09 - Co-Living Opportunities and Future Plans 25:32 - Contact Information and Final Thoughts   ► Join The Subto Community & Learn Creative Finance Directly from Pace:  https://paceapproves.com/subto-gc?utm_source=Apple&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=getcreativepodcast  ► Want to Become a Private Money Lender?

The Conch Republic (/ˈkɒŋk/) is a micronation declared as a sarcastic secession of the city of Key West, Florida, from the United States on April 23, 1982. It has been maintained as a tourism booster for the city. Since then, the term "Conch Republic" has been expanded to refer to "all of the Florida Keys, or, that geographic apportionment of land that falls within the legally defined boundaries of Monroe County, Florida, northward to 'Skeeter's Last Chance Saloon' in Florida City, Dade County, Florida, with Key West as the micronation's capital and all territories north of Key West being referred to as 'The Northern Territories'".[1]

Send us a Text Message.Ever tried to find loyalty in the chaos of everyday life? We kicked off this week's episode of "4 Steppers Only" with a wild ride, quite literally, as we stumbled through mistaken destinations and cracked jokes about the punctuality (or lack thereof) of drug dealers. Queen Bella of Dade County joined us for a fiery debate on whether loyalty or love holds the trump card in relationships. We shared our tales and thoughts, bouncing between laughter and genuine insight, ultimately illustrating how sometimes, just sometimes, loyalty can be the unexpected hero.Moving on, we took a comedic stab at Father's Day, ranking it somewhere between National Donut Day and Arbor Day. With a sprinkle of personal stories, we explored everything from the dubious claims about Mountain Dew affecting one's manhood to a late-night college dab session that ended with baby carrots being the highlight. The camaraderie was thick, the jokes were relentless, and we even managed to squeeze in some heartfelt moments about the shared significance of celebrating our dads, despite the holiday's lesser-known status.Finally, we didn't shy away from the awkward and unfiltered moments of adulthood. From cringeworthy sexual encounters to generational quirks, we spilled the tea on everything. Imagine being called "auntie" or "uncle" and realizing you're now the new adult on the block! We wrapped it all up with a story of a frantic dash through misdirections and road rage incidents, proving that life's unpredictability can be both stressful and hilarious. Join us for this rollercoaster of an episode—laugh with us, learn with us, and maybe cringe a little too.

Starting from humble beginnings, Derrick's mom always encouraged him to dream big.

He couldn't figure out why he wasn't happy. In a brave move to find himself, Derrick decided to try his hand at entrepreneurship, hoping to create a legacy for himself and his family. Things didn't go smoothly. Just when life seemed darkest, his friends stepped in to support him. Their help and encouragement pulled Derrick out of his lowest point and gave him the strength to keep going. Derrick is founder and CEO of CourMed®.

Transcript: Track

3[1:59] Matthew, old man. How are you doing this week? I am good, thanks. And you?I'm a little shaky in the voice, it seems.Well, maybe you need some water. Let me take a sip of this water.That's better. It is delicious. We talked about water last week.We'll put a pin in it until next week.We don't want to give away the farm, as it were.Maya Rudolph, huh? Yeah. I mean, I'm really looking forward to sharing aboutMaya's life. She is an incredible character.This is interesting because this is her last kick at the can.If she doesn't get in this time, and I believe she was hovering around 58% or59%, so she needs almost 10% to get in, 10% more to get in.And if she doesn't get in, she's off the ballot.That would be a shame because she is an incredible performer and a hilarious person.So take this as a war egg, not telling people how to vote, but just be mindfulof that folks. This is your last chance. Yeah.Track

3[6:20] How has that not been done? Exactly. This is a fall guy, for heaven's sake.Yeah, like I said, low-hanging fruit in that it's so obviously awesome. Yeah.Track 3[6:29] So it's like, why would you not do that? And I can just imagine her singingthe song too, like the, we're gonna do fun. Like, it'd just be beautiful.Yeah. So she later formed a Prince cover band called Princess with her friendGretchen Lieberum in 2011.And Prince himself was a big fan. Oh my gosh.So this shows there's no bad blood over the Prince show sketch.Sketch um now she she firstthe first time she actually met prince was on a five-hour planeride uh he asked if they had met beforeand she thought he must have confused her with someone else but he later cameback and asked if her baby sang to her and she said yeah she makes noise allthe time prince responded maybe that's your mom the first time i saw your momwas on the mike douglas show So I shed a tear.So Prince was just such a beautiful human being.There's like a connection there between the two of them. I'm speechless.I'm speechless right now. Well, I mean, that's how Prince leaves everyone atone point or another, you know, just does something so miraculous and wild andawesome that you're just like, I've got no words.No words at all. Well, we have a lot more words, though, coming your way ina conversation between Thomas and Rebecca North.Track

4[8:30] All right, Matt and JD, thank you so much. Yes, we are talking about somebodywho has been a very beloved cast member who has been on the ballot since season one.So this is like one of those very special episodes of the SNL Hall of Fame wherewe get to almost re-litigate or re-examine somebody's candidacy.Somebody who I'm surprised isn't already in the SNL Hall of Fame because thisperson's so beloved. So I'm excited today to chat about Maya Rudolph and joiningme a first timer here on the SNL Hall of Fame podcast.Track 4[9:06] Rebecca North is joining me to chat about Maya Rudolph. Rebecca, how are you doing today?I'm good, Thomas. I'm happy to be here. This is my first time,so I'm excited to voice my opinions about someone who I'm shocked.It's been five seasons now and still has not made it to the Hall of Fame,and that was groundbreaking to me.So I'm here to vouch for Maya and kind of talk through her career and history on SNL.So I can't wait. Yeah, we'll dig in to see why she might not be.We'll definitely try to make another case for her Hall of Fame candidacy forsure. And you're a great person to come on and talk with me about this.You and I were teammates a long time ago, two years ago on the Saturday Night Network's trivia.We did a little trivia together. So I don't know that we won.We were going up against Bill Kenney and stuff and he dominated us.But that's how we first came in contact.And you've been doing stuff over at the Saturday Night Network off and on.What have you been up to over at the S&N recently?Track 4[10:14] Yeah, I was actually thinking about that. That was my first episode on SNN asa guest for trivia. And we did get annihilated.But it was fun. I feel like very insightful. Like I learned a lot through that.When I was signed up, I was like, Oh, it's gonna be a piece of cake.And then no, we were up against people who have been watching for live for amillion years and rewatch it and do all that.So that was fun. But yeah, I'm over at the SNN Saturday Night Network.And I'm going on a lot of those roundtables recapping the episode.And just really enjoying this season leading up to season 50 of SNL,which is going to be a huge one.So loving kind of the gap bridging between, like, millennials and Gen Z.Track 4[10:57] Specifically on the show and the writing staff.So this has been, like, an exciting kind of transitional season for that atleast I'm viewing, where some of the guests are people that most of the viewershave never heard of, but they're really exciting to me.So I'm excited to get really just into SNL this season.Yeah, it's been a really interesting season. I like hearing you on the hot takeshows and the roundtables because I think you and I often share similar sensibilitiesand similar opinions with the show.And I think your opinions are, they're mostly positive, they're fair,but you're not like, you're not just going to say everything's great.That's what I like. You have a discerning eye for this. So I think your voiceon the S&N and the roundtables and such, I think is a really nice perspective,Rebecca. So I'm glad you're sharing that perspective with us today.Yeah, thank you, Thomas. Ialso know we both have a shared love for pop culture and all things there.So it's going to be exciting to talk about someone who was on the show and isreally just pivotal in pop culture, I think.Like, as far as some of those, not earlier, but, like, middle of SNL cast membersgo, I think Maya is definitely someone we've seen, is very well known just in the world.And people that have never even watched SNL know Maya Rudolph.It's just a name, which is why I'm so shocked that season five,she's still not in the Hall of Fame. I know. She pops up everywhere, too.Like, so many shows that I watch, like, is it the –.Track 4[12:25] The Good Place. Yes. I didn't even expect her to pop up in The Good Place,and she played the judge.And my wife and I were like, oh my gosh, Maya Rudolph. We were so excited.She just does that. She's just omnipresent in pop culture.I was actually going to reference that when I was thinking about her beforethis. It was such a small character, but had such an impact on The Good Place.I really loved that. I'm glad you brought that one up. No, absolutely.That's what she does. Maya just pops up, and then everybody,we all get excited to see Maya on her screen.She's like an electric performer. Rebecca, I'm curious about,since you're a first-timer here on the show, you've never, you know,haven't shared, obviously, your SNL fandom with us. So tell us about, like, your SNL fandom.When did you start watching the show? Any particular cast members or casts in general? role?Track 4[13:11] So I watched the show a lot. It was very big in my household.My parents aren't super fans, but they don't miss an episode.They watch every Saturday night.No matter what they would do, they would have it on TiVo. I remember growingup and then DVR to watch it just every Saturday night.They go to sleep after the news and watch the rest the next day.And I think around high schools when I started to appreciate SNL, I actually,the other said, man, big on pop culture, but I became very just interested inpolitics and just learning a lot more about this world because I feel like Iwould have conversations with people and actually have no clue what I was talking about.And that was something that I was always, like, missing.And then I actually really got into SNL because of the politics and the stancesthere and seeing Tina Fey as Sarah Palin.I suddenly knew who Sarah Palin was and knew how to give an opinion and a stanceand know that. So that's actually what really like hooked me.I've always been a big comedy fan. Like any set come that I even do some standupnow and sketch around New York. Yeah.I dabble. I'm not super well versed, but I started when I lived in Seattle.It takes a lot to even dabble. I've done it once.I did a five minute set once and I'm like, this is tough.Track 4[14:28] Five for your furset is a lot. So I lived in Seattle during the pandemic.And I'm not from there, so I'm from New York. And the way that I actually gotto meet people was I took an improv class.And through that, I don't – not an improv girl, but I met someone that was like,I feel like you do good stand-up. You want to come with me one night?And that's actually how I made a lot of my social life and friends there isjust going to open mics, doing open mics, working on things with people,So that's how I got into that.And then when I moved back to New York, the way that I met some other peoplehere was taking a sketch class at People's Improv Theater.Track 4[15:06] And through that, going to a lot of shows and open mics and just making connections with people.So comedy has always just been at the root of things in my life.But then really when I started like understanding it and really appreciatingthe show that it was like a universal experience, but I just never sat and watched.I think around high school time is that when my parents would record it,even if I was doing my thing, running around like at night, every Sunday,like even today, like I don't usually watch it live.I watch it every single Sunday. It's part of my routine now.I watch it like Sunday, 11 o'clock.I wake up, I'm making breakfast and I'm watching SNL and it's basically justbeen a constant in my life. And a lot of it really stemmed, weirdly enough,from getting to know and learn and understand politics in a fun way.Yeah. As fun as they can be these past few years anyway.That's really interesting. Yeah, I don't often hear people say it was politics.Even though SNL is synonymous with politics, that's a really neat way to get into the show.I love it. And so when did you first take notice of Maya Rudolph as a performer? Was it SNL?Track 4[16:12] It was SNL. So Maya Rudolph and Kristen Wiig are like my two favorite cast members of all time.And a lot of it was their interactions with each other.And I was able to see a lot of like myself and my friends in them and the waythat they interact and the way that they bring each other onto their projectsin real life or even watching them on a talk show or red carpet or they're presentingan award at the Emmys together.Like the way that they interacted I also feltthe same similar with Tina Fey and Amy Poehler where I was just likeme and my girlfriend just sit and do this andwe just kind of shoot the shit and talk andare funny and friends and I think that's what reallyfelt relatable to me and I think in actually some of the the sketches that Ilike think so highly of Maya and a lot of them are her and Kristen are justher being her but in like a funny way and adopting and I really I really feellike that's what drew me in to her is I could see myself being friends with her.I can't say that about everyone that's been on this show, but I'm like,you're someone that I'd get coffee with and I feel like I'd have a great time.Yeah, I can see that, definitely. It seems like she'd be easy to be friends with. For sure.Yeah, if she was my friend, she would probably say, you know what,Thomas, I'm disappointed. I've been on the ballot.This is my fifth time on the ballot now, and I'm not in the Hall of Fame yet. What's the deal?Track 4[17:34] Yeah, you have to make it up to her to get a friendship. I know. Jeez.I know. Sorry, Maya. So in season one, she had 47% of the vote.Seasons two, three, and four, actually, it's been hovering around 58%.It's been very, very steady.Track 4[17:50] So almost like knocking at the door, Rebecca, the candidates need 66.7% of thevote to get in. So to about two thirds of the vote.So she's like knocking on that door, but not quite over the hump.So why do you think, like, do you have any theories as to why Maya hasn't gotover that hump and been voted into the hall?Yeah. So something that stuck out to me as a reason why I love her,but I actually could see people not is obviously we've seen her do countlessimpressions on the show.So from Beyonce to Kamala Harris to just all of these different people,but she's still kind of maintains maya andthat and i think maybe from an impressionist pointof view you look at someone like top of mind right now ischloe feinman and you look at chloe and she's animpressionist whenever she puts a wig on she embodiesthat person and maya the similar to if sarahsherman does an impression i'm just relating it to this season is it's sarahsherman still and you still have all of her quirks and all of that maya is verythat and that's actually why I like her because I'm like yeah you're not blendingcompletely into this person I thinkthere are two types of people that do impressions on SNL people J.A.J.That just completely embodies that and you actually might not be able to tellwho is who if they're talking next to each other and people that sometimes are funnier to me is.Track 4[19:11] Someone that, like, their quirks and their characteristics come through.And it's, like, Maya Rudolph as Kamala Harris.And sometimes that's even funnier to me than an actual spot on impression.Because if you're not going to do a perfect impression, at least let your comedy come through.Track 4[19:27] But that's something that I specifically like. I have dabbled in the space andI'm not an impressionist.I made a joke that the only impression I could do is, like, either a 60-year-oldchain smoker or, like, an old man just based on my voice.And my stature and i'm just likei you would see me through any impression i've done sothat is something that like shines out to me is that likei love that and respect them when someone could do that and make it funny andreally let themselves come through that like ad bryant as well as someone thatsticks out like you're laughing at them you're not laughing at the spot on impressionso i see the flip side of maybe people being like maya is always maya no matterwhat she is what what character she's playing,what impression she's doing, it's still Maya Rudolph as that person.It's not her embodying someone, which I respect, but I think that actually couldbe one of the reasons that she hasn't gotten her way onto the ballot yet.Track 4[20:20] Yeah, I think that's a pretty good theory. You do bring up a good point aboutimpressions that I wanted to circle back to, too, because we've talked about,on the SNL Hall of Fame, we've talked about impressions quite a bit and whatyour taste in impressions is and what you look for.And I think the way Maya's done it is preferable to me over somebody who's technically sound.We've had a lot of impressionists on SNL who are technically great impressionists.Some recent ones, actually, who didn't quite hit on the show.Because I think with an impression, Rebecca, you have to have a take.And it has to be funny. To me, you only get so much mileage out of just soundinglike the person and looking like the person. You actually have to have some comedic.Track 4[21:05] Value to the impression so i don'twant to bring up names because i don't you know but there's been impressionists onthe show uh in in the past whohave been who've done very sound technically great impressions but there's nocomedic take behind yeah so with maya i think we have seen we see a lot of uhfunny comedic takes does she sound 100 like beyonce it's okay like i don't knowYou can kind of tell she's trying to play Beyonce,but there's some sort of take there. Same with Donatella Versace.She does a weird one of Scott Joplin, who's like a real person.She did a couple of some of my favorite Maya's work.It wasn't quite an impression. It was kind of her take on a historical figure, like a funny take.But there's the comedic value in it. So that was a really good point,Rebecca, about impressions and Maya and how she does impressions.But I have a confession for you. Yeah.I'm one of those people who has been on the fence about voting her in.Why? Yeah. So here's my – and I'm glad you asked me in that tone because I'veasked myself in that tone. In my judgy tone?Yeah. No, I've asked myself in that judgy tone too.Track 4[22:22] But I finally pinpointed it, I think.Think so maya was on from 2000 to2007 and i think i thinkshe spent much of her time on snl in the wrong erafor her skill set i think like theearly to mid 2000s i think thatcatered to a lot of and there's a lot oflike lowbrow kind of humor there was a lotand i think she was capable of so much more i thinkshe was very clever and but she always she didn'talways get a lot of clever sketches on ithink she was way more like her skill set was alot more diverse than maybe the era catered toso i and that that's just kind ofmy taste but i think that's kind ofwhat the era was there was a lot of like and it'shard to describe from like about 2001 to like2005 it was a lot of edgelord humorit was a lot of like let's put people let'slet's dress up an athlete in a a wig and a dress let'sput our female host and get justgive her a wig and some jewelry and make her talk like ahip-hop affectation kind of characters i don't know it's just like a it wasa weird vibe and comedy just in general around that time so i don't i thinki don't know if you could see where i'm coming from with maybe her skill setshe would have been better off in a different time of snl where she could have really shined i think.Track 4[23:47] I actually really agree with that. It was also a really saturated cast.So for everyone to stand out and saturated not only by volume,but talent and big, big personalities.Like you see nowadays, even this season, it's a very saturated cast,but there are a lot of people that are really strong background characters that like they shine in that.That but I would say from her six seven years onthe show it really was a lotof huge huge personalities comedically like kind offighting for that spotlight there so the edgier or the probably more lowbrowyou could get at the time I feel like the more that you shined on the show andthat's what it needed to be then and that was kind of what we were seeing comedyat that time So I do agree with you there.And yeah, I feel like even now, just like learning about Maya and her,just, I feel like she's very cultured and like intelligent outside of comedy.And that inspires a lot of it, like her Prince tribute band.And going through that, she has a lot of niche interests and quirks that I feellike if she was on a different season, even like on current season,the writing cast was different and they would really let it shine.And kind of write things around someone that would understand.I think about Bo and Yang doing the Troye Sivan sketch.Track 4[25:08] Did it relate to everyone? No. But was it funny because it was someone doingsomething they were passionate about and understood and got?I feel like if Maya was on a more recent season, I would say probably from like2015 till now, the writers would tailor things to her and she wouldn't justhave to fit in and be the funny character in what she was doing.And you have her and Kristen Wiig as, like, a dynamic duo throughout the seasonstogether, and they are so different, and their humor is so different.And I feel like although their partnership was something that we've seen fromthe show on and through that, I feel like it was more for Kristen to shine thanit allowed for Maya to shine.And I think that is probably the reason she isn't in this Hall of Fame.But as you look back like taking a deeper eye to this and the reason why I'mso excited to talk about her is like she was just stunning.Track 4[26:02] Standard and reliable like you knew she wasgoing to say something or sing something and we were going tolaugh whether she was the star of it and whetherit was even her like area toshine comedically she always did trigger a lot from the audience so althoughi you don't want to like pit women against each other but i kind of feel likethe writers then had to pick the star and kristin definitely got that spotlightand maya was more of a supporting role when i actually feel I feel like theycould have balanced that a little different.Track 4[26:32] Yeah, that's something that you just articulated that I think I've always felt,but I never really articulated it to myself, is that dynamic with her and Kristenand maybe a little bit Amy. I think she and Amy were actually really good.Of course, they did Bronx Beat together and stuff, but I think they actuallyhad a really good partnership.I really I wish that Maya sheended in on SNL in 2007I wish she could have had a few more years because Ithink that that cast was just finding its groovearound 2007 so I would wish Mayacould have been a part of them really hitting thepeak like she could I wish she could have done more stuff with Sudeikisand Hader and even develop more ofa partnership with Kristen so I think she was in a weird eraand she was part of when the show kind offlipped and got another golden era buti wish she could have been part more of amore of that golden era than she wasif that makes sense yeah that that actually is areally good point like as they transitioned over she was one of the cast membersthat transitioned with them but didn't get to see it through fruition the waythat like she probably should have after the year she put into it like yeahand if she was able to stick around and actually like help with the transitionand do that and move that over.So that's an awesome point because I feel like the show really flips.Track 4[27:56] Each big era from like, is who dominates it?Especially I think like gender is a big thing. Like, is it being carried bylike Andy Samberg, Jason Sudeikis, Bill Hader, that?That was a very male heavy, like leading a lot of the sketches.And then you go to Kate McKinnon, Cecily and 80. And that was very,very female dominating.And I kind of wished even just as a general statement throughout the years,there was better balance and you would see moredynamic duos from like thewomen and the men on the cast and i think that's actually somethingthat snl has really never quite nailed down since the early early seasons umlike really from the not ready for primetime players that i think had the bestbalance between everyone had a role but since the cast are so saturated nowit's easier to make a a more bro-y sketch or a more, like,female-oriented sketch.And that's just natural and due to the nature. But I kind of feel like that'swhat we're missing now is that sweet spot.You look at all the duos or trios or groups of people from 2000 on.Track 4[29:01] And there's never really, like, a male-female dynamic duo leading that.And I actually think, like, Maya and Fred could have done that.And we see in real life that they kind of are that dynamic duo.And we've seen that really come to terms afterthe show and all of that but I think that's like an areathat we've been missing for a while is like having someonejust really dominant that way and I think that would just make maybe every sketchmore reliable to this so I talked to John about sketches that he all-time favoritethinks is the funniest things with like Andrew Dismukes and I'm like yeah Ilaughed it wasn't like necessarily my thing or like little things things like that.And that's, I guess, reaching all the different people in the audience.Track 4[29:46] But kind of looking for that sweet spot.And I feel like she could have been a really good bridge between that.She really could have. That's such a good point. And I was thinking of Fredtoo, with Amaya and Fred, they could have had such a, they could have builton like a dynamic because Fred stayed until what, 2012, something like that.So, so they could have had a few more years together. Yeah. See great points, Rebecca.See, Maya is overdue in the Arsenal Hall of Fame andyou were overdue to appear on this podcast i'm alreadymeant to be yeah it was meant to be then but i'mhere i'm here to vouch for her and then hopefully vouch for a returnon this podcast i think you've already sealed a return 20 minutesin wow so as far asmaya's work on snl what what kind of immediately stands out to you like youwe can we can kind of just talk about it like a specific character or sketchright now well you did mention bronx beat and that is the number one When Ilook back at my 10 favorite sketches of all time,I think Bronx Beat is really just up there in that list.Initially, I'm like, okay, Maya's on this show. Who are we talking about? Bronx Beat is that.So, your book, you like to ride bikes. Yes, I traveled all over the countryand found the best trails and rated them according to difficulty and size and, uh... Uh-huh.You know how many times I had sex last year, Frankie?Track 4[31:11] 0.002. And it was my choice. This area down here, this area,it's got the Ghostbusters thing over it.No one's allowed in there. No trespassing. No trespassing. Clothes for business.You know that red circle thing with the line, the Ghostbusters thing?Yeah. It's my choice. You know what? When my husband wants to get sex... It's always funny.No matter when I watch it, no matter what mood I'm in, it is just always one that gets me laughing.And I think that was a good point you made about Amy and Maya's chemistry.Like, they have such a funny, like, chemistry in this. And their dialects, it's just a dumb sketch.But it really just always hits. Sometimes you just get those where you're like, this is amazing.And that was pure gold. So that definitely stands out to me.It's a dumb sketch, but it's not.It's not a dumb sketch because they have these mannerisms. So now you're fromNew York, you said, right? Yes.Have you met these ladies before? Yes.So I'm from Long Island. So it's a little different, but there's like,there's a similarity between Bronx and certain parts of Long Island.And I think especially like older generations, like the accents are real.Like people actually sound like that.And I think that was around, like, an era with Jersey Shore was also,like, how are these people real?But they are. And the people of Bronx Beat, those people exist.Track 4[32:34] And it's awesome to see. And it was, like, a really great depiction.And they really just took those characters to 110%. And they were relatable.Like, I was able to be like, oh, that's who that is.That's someone from New York. And it was awesome. Yeah, yeah.Yeah, that sketch was so musical, too.Like, when Amy talking and then Maya talking, like, the way they bantered backand forth, it was very musical.It was, like, just something about it. Like, you had to be an amazing performerto get those beats down. Like, it was...Track 4[33:07] I remember the Jake Gyllenhaal one, the one that they were kind of flirtingwith, with like, they kind of flirted with their guests and stuff,but just like their, the way they would bounce back and forth.She and Amy, there was just, just real like music to it.That's whenever I watch those sketches, that's all my mind goes to is just asa performer, she was just so good about hitting those exact beats is very conversational,uh, and very relatable. I'm from New Mexico.I've been to New York, but you know, I'm not like a guy, uh,But it was still like I felt like I knew those ladies.Yeah, for sure. Like they definitely exist. And I feel like some people gotit and they were like, I could relate this.But other people that have never met anyone like that still were able to relateand be like, I saw this person on TV.And it was an awesome depiction.So that's like the number one sketch that really stands out to me.Yeah, and I don't think it's a coincidence, too, that they started doing theselater in Maya's tenure there on SNL.When the cast and the show as a whole was starting to flip into another goldenera, and we saw something like Bronx Beat, which she and Amy came up with.So I don't think that's necessarily a coincidence that these started happening a little later.Track 4[34:23] One that I revisited today that was just like pure Maya just owning it was that National Anthem.Yeah was that was that like one of the next ones that that was in my i thati was deciding which one i was going to bring up next it was either that orthe one i'll get to then after but i love that i mean one of my like happy videosis watching fergie sing the national anthem.Track 4[34:45] And I could do every single quip.And that's, I think, kind of what it was Lucy based off of was Fergie for theBasketball Hall of Fame sang the national anthem and took a lot of creativeliberty in a way that did not pay off.But I'm sure it's probably one of the most watched national anthems of any sports event ever.Track 4[35:09] And Maya so perfectly encapsulated that.But also, she's a super talented singer. So I think that was part of it.But Fergie at this national anthem just like, went off and did all these adlibs and runs that were so funny.And to see SNL do that in a way that wasn't an exact copy and had Maya likefully just shine and go off on that.And like, that is quintessential Maya. Like when I'm imagining her in my head,she is just singing and doing something funny vocally and through singing.And I think that this sketch still holds up now because there's always it's always relatable.Like there was a super viral video this month of this little girl that sangthe National Anthem again so horribly, like at one of these games.And I was like watching this one again yesterday.And I was like, oh, it's like this little girl now. But you could have watchedit two years ago and related it to another just bad national anthem performance.Yeah, as long as people are singing the national anthem, they're going to besinging it poorly because it's a hard song to sing.Track 4[36:15] Exactly. And I don't know why people keep doing that. Like, just sing the song as it was written.Like, it's very rarely paid off for people to just make it their own.And we're seeing that. I think this is just a relatable sketch,whether it was 20 years ago or today. because you can always relate it to something going on.Through the night,for it's warm to me.Track 4[37:08] I feel like they told Maya, maybe on that Monday, whoever, maybe it was herthat came up with the idea, but I feel like they just kind of told Maya,like, we need you to do a national anthem and kind of butcher it.Sing well, but just, like, butcher it.And Maya's like, I got you. And she came up with that.It was just so, like, her facial expressions were perfect.I think she added in, she started singing Take Me Out to the Ball Game or something at some point.Yeah yeah that was so perfect that's likequintessential mom glad i revisited it again today because thatyou're right that is quintessential uh maya in inthat performance yeah uh what else is quintessential maya she's so fun she'sso fun the other one that i think like she shines out of a bigger cast is supershowcase spokesmodels this in my mind is just Kristen and Maya doing their thing.It's a spoof of The Price is Right and it's showing contestants what they would have won.So it's Kristen and Maya as the Vanillites walking around. I know that's.Track 4[38:15] Um walking around and being like thespokesperson and you just watch like Kristen andBill Hader just lose it and it just shows likeMaya was probably someone that was so fun to have on setand someone that you look at and you're like yes I'm in this sketch with themand she made them break just by being her and standing out so much out of likethe crowd of this sketch that it cracks me up like I'm a sucker for people thatbreak in a sketch especially when it's like actually funny Yeah,when it's not like forced.Not like an inside joke type of thing. Yeah, yeah, exactly.You're going to kick yourself when you see what Sean and Vonda have in their cart.Look at this, Debra. A lifetime supply of frozen chicken by Chicken Man.Imagine years after years after years of chicken. Right at your fingertips. Tickle, tickle.Each chicken looks as good as this one. That's a Chicken Man guarantee.If your mom likes trickle, you might like chicken.Track 4[39:20] Was her voice kind of similar to like, remember that art dealers one that she and Fred did?This almost looks like the similar, like it's almost like a similar voice, right? Yeah, exactly.Yeah, Maya was... Yeah, just, we don't know what the rules of the game are still.Right. Like, what would a right answer be?And she just did such a good job here.Yeah, she, of course, Bill is known to break. But for good reason when you'reworking with somebody like Maya, honestly.I don't know how Vanessa Bear kept it together in that sketch.She's probably new and maybe afraid of getting fired.So she didn't want a break in that sketch.Yeah, that was so good.There was one, and I don't know if you remember these or when it got a chance to go rewatch.They're hard to find. You got to know where to look. But she did one that I alluded to earlier.And it's an example to me of something very clever that Maya was able to doearly on. Like these appeared in 2002 and 2003.It was Tennis Talk with time traveling Scott Joplin.Let's start with you, 92 Andre Agassi. What's new with you? Oh,well, things are pretty great.I just won Wimbledon. I'm dating Brooke Shields.And I'm doing these pretty awesome commercials for Canon cameras.That's great. By the way, Patrick Swayze called. He wants his hair back.Track 4[40:46] How about you, present-day Andre Agassi? What's going on with you?I'm really excited. I just had a second baby with my wife.So if you haven't seen and if you don't do you remember these rebecca vaguelyokay so i'll yes i'll recap so scottjoplin is a real person he was a composer hebasically is called like the godfather of ragtimekind of music and so the premisewas that maya played scott joplinwho traveled who who wasa time traveler who became a time traveler andthrough his time traveling experienceshe figured out that he really enjoyed tennis so he createda talk show time travel and tennis talk with timetravel and Scott Joplin so he would like have thesehave these tennis players on and pretty much like be passive-aggressive andmake these quips but then like after after like burns would go back and playlike ragtime diddy and then come back and like like talk to him and be condescendingand be funny at this and it was Maya like dressed up in a suit.Track 4[41:51] And short hair and and it was justsuch a bizarre to me very cleververy like where did this come from and especiallyfor that time in 2002 and 2003 itreally like stood out yeah amongst peoplebut that's an example to me like i thought of of her being ableto play in like more just kind ofsubtle weird kind of things ratherthan over the top things so that that's when if youif if you hadn't seen that in a while if listeners you hadn't seenthat in a while it's around season 28 and 29 tennis talk with time travel andscott joblin and then rebecca like i think that one yeah yeah go check thatbut i think rebecca like she she's versatile that's the versatility that i wastalking about with maya yeah the other thing that i've noticed i know we spoke about.Track 4[42:41] Impressions and we kind of touched on that earlier on but mayacomes from a unique background ground obviously we love thatshe is a very successful nepo baby uh miniripperton's her mom and she's black and jewishand i think she was on the cast at a time to be kindof she was a black woman representative so fora lot of the impressions we saw they weren't spot on butwithin being that character and playing characters that most of the rest ofthe cast couldn't play uh like at the time she took these roles and didn't justsay okay i'll just do an impression She like completely dramatized their characterization to a T and to 100%.And I think she took her background of being both black and Jewish,like in Bronx Beat, the people that related to me, I'm like,oh, those are Jewish people from Long Island that I know.Although it's not technically that from the Bronx, she always let herself shine.So a few of her impressions are just like when I looked back and really,really standing out to me is not like, wow, you are Oprah, but you are making me hysterically laugh.So that specific one is just Oprah's favorite things I have down.And then also the Maya Angelou, I Know Why the Caged Birds Laugh as a show.Track 4[43:57] Hello, child. I am the rock.I am the river. I am the one who put a pie under the butt of Morgan Freeman. Whoa!Watch as Maya Angelou pranks her esteemed colleagues.Track 4[44:15] Look out! It appears I have sat in a pie. I suppose you have.I feel no shame sitting in that pastry. Just human nature, I suppose.Yes. It has been an honor.Track 4[44:32] So she really took these and made them her own and was like,OK, if you want me to do this, I'm still going to be Maya in this because Ican't do a spot on Maya Angelou impression.So I'm going to make it a show instead of just like an interview with Maya Angelou.So I think that's where she really got to shine in a lot of those times.At the time, I know we were saying before she was never specifically writtenfor like as much as I think she deserved to be. But in a lot of her impressions,I think, is where the writers really had fun with her.And she created characters even out of real people who I wanted to imitate aswell. You said you don't do impressions.I sure as hell don't do impressions. But with something like her Whitney Houston,I find myself almost mimicking.He and my sister-in-law, sometimes we'll get to talking about SNL,and she'll always be like, I'll always go back to Maya Rudolph's Whitney Houston.Bobby Brown, Bobby Brown.We'll just kind of sit there and say Bobby Brown to each other.Eric is a real Geico customer, not a paid celebrity. So to help him tell hisstory, we paired him with Whitney Houston.Track 4[45:46] I thought I was going to have to postpone my exams. That's when I got in mySUV, threw that sucker in reverse, and drove backwards all the way to Dionne Warwick's house.Track 4[45:59] Geico took care of everything immediately, and I passed sociology.I passed Bobby Brown the other day, and I threw an old bag of chicken McNuggetsat his head. Ain't it shocking what love can do?Ain't it shocking what love can do?Geico. Real wrecks. Cars. She has that kind of energy and creates these characters that even...Track 4[46:22] Fans like we want to like imitate and we want to like act like that becauseshe radiates like that energy on screen maya does exactly and that's why i thinkbringing her back as kamala harris was.Track 4[46:36] Such a specific choice that ithink snl took they could have had someone comeback or at they were that was actually at a time where theywere just bringing people in left and right um toplay people that weren't specifically in the cast and theychose Maya and she did such a uniquetake on Kamala that I think was more successfulthan someone that was like uncanny like I meanyou look at Sarah Palin and Hillary Clinton with Amyand Tina and although they were really funny they were really spot-on impressionswhere they've had the characters in the room together but But Maya took Kamalaand made it why people like to laugh with her and at her and go through allof those phases where I thought it was like a genius pick,but it was actually interesting because they were bringing back a lot of people while Alec Baldwin,I don't think, was the funniest Donald Trump. He was super, super spot on.But they made such a specific choice by having Maya come back and be Kamalawith not a spot on impression, but added a lot of light.Maybe she wasn't as like serious as having like Biden or Trump and someone thatlike we actually want to convey like This is our political take and the stance in this sketch,but just having Kamala's like, oh, you know You're gonna say one or two linesin this that'll make me laugh,Harris you see this is what they do.Track 4[47:58] Susan they avoid taking any,Responsibility not mr. Vice President. I'm speaking.Track 4[48:11] Well, I'm just trying to. But I'm speaking. Yes, but I. Yeah, but I'm speaking.See, I'm speaking right now. Estoya, Blondo, Nevada, Arizona,some parts of Texas. I'm speaking. I understand that.I understand. Yeah, I don't think you do. I do. Because you're talking and I'm speaking.Track 4[48:29] I love that choice to bring her back. And I think having a previous cast membercome back for a recurring, like, hold open bit And then pop up in a lot of thesketches that we've seen throughout those seasons where she was back.That's that's enough to put her in the Hall of Fame for me. Yeah.Yeah. That's so. So you do look at times that they appeared outside of theirtime, like as an official cast member.Like you do take that into account when you're looking at cast members.For sure. And also impact after the show, I think is it that's what I do,because it's not like the SNL Hall of Fame in my mind is, oh,you were on SNL and you came from this and it was all encompassing.Like, what did you do on the show? What did you do with your platform after the show?And a lot of people don't utilize that platform after the show, as well as others.And I think Maya is someone that really took that by storm and completely isjust now kind of killing it and consistently killing it since her time on SNL,back on the show as host, as recurring characters and that.And I take that all into consideration. But just besides her specific yearson the show, it's like you have one of the biggest comedy platforms in the whole world.Track 4[49:44] Are you going to actually make use of what you had on here?And I say without doubt she definitely didand I mean just to bring up the I meanthe number one thing everyone's probably thinking of of her time outside theshow is bridesmaids like she made alegendary movie like that isone that goes down in the books when you look backat history you're like oh that is just an all-timefunny movie it's the same way great yeah yeahWill Ferrell had all of these movies as wellafter obviously maya doesn't have as muchi'd say on her repertoire there but you lookback and that's one of the all-time great comedic moviesof all time that i'm like you were on this you brought your friends into thiscast you brought kristin into this and like it all worked so well together thatit i related to snl because it's a maya and kristin movie that was so funnyand so amazing that i'm like how could she not be in the hall Hall of Fame.The amount of times I watch Bridesmaids a year, just when I'm sitting with peopleand we're like, what movie should we put on? Bridesmaids. It's a classic.Track 4[50:49] Yeah. No, that's a perfect one to put on when you have nothing else to go to.No, it's an all-time great comedy.And I'm starting to warm up to the idea more of thinking about cast membersand their impact even outside of their technical, when they were a cast member on the show.I think you bring up good points. And I think that's perfectly valid tolook at cast members that way and kamala harris is agreat example and with maya you almost have to like take intocameos into account because she's been backon the show so much and she played kamalalike there was and we were talking about impressions like she found a an anglefor her kamala harris they even told us what that angle was like the cool auntright like she played kamala harris said i'm the cool aunt or whatever and i'mgonna play it like that so she was like like the fun aunt who might've like rapped a little bit,but then they still made fun of her for saying like, that little girl was me,like this kind of poking fun at, at Kamala at the same time.So she did find an angle. She has had an impact on the show.Track 4[51:55] 2024 now and i and and noneof us would be shocked if we saw maya rudolphuh come on the show in some capacity i know punky johnson they had her playkamala she didn't she didn't get any speaking roles um when she played kamalabut i don't know if they're what their plans are with that but we won't be surprisedif maya's like comes back to the show at any point and has yeah,you're right uh yeah as we're recording this yeah yeah as we're recording thisKristen scheduled to host, I think, on April 6th.Yes. Something like that. Interesting.And I would not be shocked at all if she made an appearance there.I actually have a question for you, Thomas. Okay. So I know how to angle to all the listeners here.Has anyone had 100% poll numbers in the Hall of Fame? Or who was around the highest?So I kind of understand their impact versus maybe why Maya wasn't in there.I kind of think somebody like Will Ferrell or like Eddie Murphy,I seem to remember, or Bill Hader.I think people like that have been in the 90s. Nobody's gotten 100%.And it doesn't matter in any sort of Hall of Fame, any sort of vote.You could be the best basketball, best football player, best baseball playerof all time, and those guys don't get 100%. Nobody's got 100% of the vote inthe SNL Hall of Fame, yeah.Track 4[53:21] Okay, yeah, that's interesting, man. And I guess those, I think those peopleprobably have had more impact on the actual show.But then I look at Will and yes, he had amazing sketches.When you look back at, let's list everyone's favorite sketches of all time,you're going to have more cowbells and you're going to have a lot of Will appearances.But I actually feel like his impact was made more after the show and a lot of the work he's done.So I'm seeing him a little more similar to Maya than like Bill Hader,who absolutely like obviously has impact offof the show but like snl was his playground hejust completely ran that to the ground thesame way that like kate mckinnon has and all ofthat like when you're watching them off the show you're always going to relatethem back to being on the show but now you're actually going to look at willferrell and you're going to be like oh that's buddy the elf like that's probablywhere your mind goes actually more than oh you're on snl it's someone that'sjust so engraved in the culture that you're like, oh, I forget you were like,you don't forget, but oh, you were on SNL instead of Bill Hader.It's like, oh, SNL's Bill Hader is going to be in this or SNL's Kate McKinnon.And I think Maya's impacted.Track 4[54:32] Probably more off the show which is why she's beenteetering around that 50 percent range for alittle bit now but i think people should take that intoconsideration because you're not supposed to bea keenan and be honest enough for a million years not everyone could be thatconsidering there's only been one person there's only been one keenan on theshow and you want to take this life-changing opportunity and make an impactin comedy and in pop culture and in the world And I feel like Maya has had such success in that so far.So take that into consideration when you vote, listeners.Yeah, no, that's such a good point. I want to use my wife as a case study for what you just said.She likes SNL. She's not as much of a fan as me. She probably only watches andstarted watching because of me.Track 4[55:21] But she likes it and she'll watch. But she knows Will Ferrell more for likeElf and things outside of SNL.She knows Maya Rudolph more, honestly, for popping up in shows that we watchand seeing her all over the place, probably Bridesmaids.So my wife is somebody who thatperson that you said maybe knows those people more for outside of SNL.My wife wouldn't know Bill Hader unless she went back and watched earlier seasons.If she saw Bill Hader popping up on something, she wouldn't be like, oh, it's Bill Hader.But she sees Maya Rudolph and my wife's like, oh, that's Maya Rudolph. I love Maya Rudolph.Yeah, exactly. Again, good play. My wife is like, I love that they got MayaRudolph to play the judge.Or in Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Maya Rudolph played, what, Dionne Warwick?Who did she play? Yes. Yeah, wait. It wasn't –.Track

After a number of threats and attempted break-ins, McDonell decided that election officials needed a safer and larger space for election processes. So, after traveling around the country to look at other election offices, McDonell chose the new space at an unexpected location- a local brewery. They spoke about how a County Clerk embarks on a project of this size, keeping election workers safe, and maintaining trust with other clerks across the state.

It's Valentine's Day, the day that all people either adore or despise depending on whether or not they are single (or whether or not they're in a good relationship). Love is an abstract concept. There certainly are easy-to-spot actions that lovers take like giving and receiving affection, doing favors for each other, exchanging gifts, and even verbally saying "I love you." But how those feelings develop and how they change over time is an intangible emotion that no one has ever perfectly mastered.

Our guest today is Jasmine Crowe-Houston, social entrepreneur, and founder of Goodr.co. Jasmine started her journey cooking soul food for hungry unhoused people in her kitchen in her one-bedroom apartment in Atlanta. She fed upwards of 500 people a week for years with pop-up kitchens and parks and parking lots. Then in 2017, she founded Goodr, a technology-based food waste management company that connects firms with food surpluses to nonprofit organizations that can use the food. She has worked with organizations that have food waste issues, such as the Atlanta International Airport, Hormel Foods, and Turner Broadcasting. Today, Goodr has expanded nationwide and sponsors free grocery stores and schools. She has combined charity, innovation, and market-based solutions into a for-profit waste management company that Inc. Magazine called a rare triple win.  This episode is in collaboration with Policy360, a podcast of the Sanford School of Public Policy at Duke University. Interview Summary   Would you describe what Goodr is today?   Goodr is a blessing. We are a sustainable food waste management company that leverages technology to connect businesses that have excess food to non-profit organizations that can use that food. And at the same time, we have a line of business, which is Hunger Solutions, and we're helping brands and government and other municipalities rethink how hunger is solved in their communities. We believe that hunger is not an issue of scarcity. It's really a matter of logistics. And so, we are using technology and logistics to drive out hunger and food waste. We've built technology that includes our mobile app and portal. Imagine you are using an Uber Eats or DoorDash app. You go onto your favorite restaurant; you click the item that you want. Similar experience for our users. So, for example, a restaurant in the airport. Their menu is in our system. They click chicken sandwich; they tell us 50. Our platform is going to calculate the tax value of those sandwiches, the approximate weight of those sandwiches, and our algorithm is automatically matching those sandwiches with the non-profit that is serving 50 or more people that can take those items and then get it distributed to people in need. Another big thing that our technology is capturing is the poundage that we're keeping out a landfill. So, it's really important because we're able to tell our clients we have kept 2 million pounds of food from landfills. This is equal to this much CO2 emissions that you've helped to prevent. We do a lot of fun gamifications as well, but we're data-driven and we believe that you can't manage what you don't measure. And for too long, people have thrown everything away. They've never measured it. And now we're giving them real insights and they're seeing things like, wow, my number one wasted thing is pork. Why am I making pork so much? Maybe people here at our offices don't eat pork. Start to make changes. So, we really work on the source reduction, but the number two on the EPA is the food hierarchy chart is feeding hungry people. And so that's really where we are.   Wow, that's amazing. I want to ask because I've seen this in the food waste and food donation world, that sometimes food that's donated isn't appropriate or fit for human consumption. What happens to those food products?   Traditionally, they end up in landfills. One of the big things that we have to do at Goodr, and I'll tell you too, that change is by county. So, think of not by city, not by state. Wake County and Durham County probably have different rules because it's based off the health department in each city. So, a good example is when we were working in Florida, what we do in Miami is absolutely illegal in Fort Lauderdale. They're 10 minutes away from each other. Broward County and Dade County have different rules. So, we spend a lot of time, our R&D team, creating quality assurance checklists. And we know this food is going to live for three hours. So, you've got to get this either cooled, frozen, or donated within three hours. So, we tell our businesses that. We are moving food in an average of about 30 minutes from the time it gets picked up. Some of our customers will put in their pickup requests and ask that it's picked up the next morning. So, they're going to automatically put it in their refrigerator. That's their comfort level. They feel a lot better. It makes the food last longer and they don't always have to worry about it being fresh. A lot of the time when we're dealing with weddings, really big events, that's when we have to move right away because maybe that business doesn't have access to the kitchen the next day. And so, we need to move a little bit differently. Most of the time when a business has food that's passed that timeframe, they typically do throw it away. But what we've done is we've introduced organics recycling into our fold. So, our customers now have the ability to send that to an animal farm. We can also send it to an anaerobic digester and turn it into an organic product, or we can compost it. We're still keeping it out of landfill. It doesn't have to end up in landfill ever. That's the positive.   Yeah, that's amazing. I saw your 2019 Ted women talk entitled "What We're Getting Wrong in The Fight to End Hunger". And it has been viewed by more than 2.2 million times.   Wow. Yeah, it's so good. I didn't know if you gave me those last million, but that's good to know.   Good job! No, it was over that by the time I got to it, but it's really amazing and I'm just intrigued to get your opinion about why do you think people are interested in solving hunger and food waste?   I think people are questioning why it hasn't been solved yet. It's almost like it's not as big as cancer, right? But it's as big as cancer. Cancer's big, it kills people, right? But we spend a lot of money and there's a lot of research and we feel like we're getting closer to the fight. I don't know if people feel that we're getting closer to the fight as it relates to hunger. And if you think about it, Norbert, when me and you were kids, we probably did a canned food drive. Anybody that's listening right now is probably thinking, "I did some kind of a food drive when I was in elementary school to solve hunger in our communities." Why are we still doing that? Why are we still doing the same things? I always look at it as being the definition of insanity, right? Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. I think that's what people are interested in. What are we getting wrong? Why is my kid, 35 years later, why am I still doing canned food drives for my kindergarten kid and this is something that I did in kindergarten? And is this moving the needle? Is this really working? People want to know that. People want to know are we pacifying problems or is the money that we're putting behind these actually driving solutions and should we look at something else that's different? Even with my TED Talk, I remember the first week it came out, we got a lot of, "Oh, you're talking negatively about food banks, and they do great work and I volunteer at the food bank every weekend." There's a whole section in my TED Talk where I say food banks and food pantries are vital. They play a pivotal role, but they don't solve hunger alone, and we need to be open to doing new things. We're using technology in every other area of our lives. I mean, we're getting our groceries delivered, we're meeting our spouses, we're going to college. Why are we not using technology to try and solve a big problem like hunger and food waste? And so, it's just getting people open. I think that's what people are interested in finding a solution.   I'm really intrigued by the model of Goodr, the fact that it is a for-profit company. What's also interesting is given all the success that you've had up to this point, it's hard to believe now that investors hesitated to support you.   Yeah, shame on those investors, I would say. I'll tell you, Norbert, the sad thing is, right, any woman listening should know this. Women as a whole get 2% of all venture capital funding from investors as a whole. So, you take a pie and then you take 2%, and now of that 2%, you have women that are Asian, women that are Black, women that are Hispanic, women that are White. We're all taking a piece of that small 2%. So, there's part of that. I think another thing is it's hard to sometimes get conviction around that, which you don't understand. And a lot of investors, quite frankly, have never been hungry, you know? They don't really understand food waste. It's probably not... It's not AI, it's not blockchain, it's not crypto. It's not always in the headlines. It's not the cool thing. So, I think those all played a factor in it. I think that's just the reality. Investors like to invest in things that they can get excited about, and sometimes hunger and food waste just are not exciting. I also think a lot of people felt like this is so good, they should be a nonprofit. And for me, I saw the business case in what we were building right away because businesses were already paying to throw food away. That's the simple thing about it. So why would I create a nonprofit and must ask everyday people to donate so that we can get this food picked up, have to rely on volunteers that may or may not come, which possibly would cause more food to go to waste. Because if you're being paid to pick something up, you're being paid to do something, you're 99% more likely to go, right? If you're volunteering and it's raining, you may not go that day. It doesn't matter how much you care about the cause. You may not want to get in your car, you may not like to drive in the rain. Those are the things that happen. And so I also believe that businesses would value what they pay for. So, if you're investing and you're paying in a service to divert your food waste from landfill, you're more likely to make sure that your employees are actually packaging that food, recording it for donations, scheduling pickups, than you would be if it was just a free thing, and it was a nice to do. I think that was kind of like we needed to prove that, and now we've proven. We have world-class customers. We work with... You name some of them. And I mean, we've worked with everybody from the NBA to Google to Oracle, Nike World Headquarters. These are our customers, you know? People have now seen that this works. One of our biggest customers, they sent over a testimonial the other day and it says, "All the other locations are banging down my door to try and get Goodr." People just needed to give it a try. And so now hopefully when we have those investor conversations the next go around, this market's a little crazy, but hopefully we'll have a bit more willingness to give our solution a try. And there have been great investors who have made an investment in what we're doing.   Right. Thank you for sharing that. And we're at a university and we have a lot of young people who are excited about social entrepreneurship. What can you say to them to encourage them along this path?   I could say to them that they are needed. We were talking about my goal of wanting to be a professor one day, and what I want to talk about is social entrepreneurship and this model of being able to do well by doing good. That there is a way to do that in business and that it ultimately works. And we've seen the big companies that I think are pretty keen and they've seen success for are your Warby Parkers, your Patagonias. These are other B Corps, Goodr is a B Corp as well, who are kind of existing. The first model I ever saw of social entrepreneurship was Toms Shoes. They were really popular maybe 15 years ago, maybe not as much now, but there was a point when it was like, I'm going to buy a shoe and give a shoe. Bombas, the sock and undergarment company, the same thing. They're supporting homelessness. You buy a sock, you're giving a sock, you buy a T-shirt, you're giving a T-shirt. People love to do good. And so, these students that are interested in creating ways and solutions to solve some of our biggest problems, are needed now more than ever. I mean, this world is... I read an article the other day talking about all that millennials have lived through. And I was thinking to myself, goodness gracious, I've lived through a lot, two recessions, a couple of wars, a pandemic, just like everything, technology. I mean, that's the reality of it. I don't recall a smart cell phone when I was in high school and college. That was... I think the iPhone came out maybe in 2008, 2009. I graduated college by then. I didn't have that. Facebook wasn't around until 2008. You start to see what's happening to young people now because of social media, their self-esteem, the anxiety. There are so many things that we need people to be addressing because we're creating a lot more technology, but we're also creating a lot more problems, and they need to be solved.   They do. And it is interesting to think about the anxiety that's associated with some of these issues.   Oh yes.   And the fact that Goodr is trying to address food waste, which is a contributor climate change, I mean, you're providing a solution. And this is great and it helps me think that our students can start to think differently about what they can do to help address these issues.   The Project Drawdown, which is pretty much a leading climate solutions organization, they named, in 2022, food waste. Reducing our food waste is number two after fixing our energy grid. Number two thing that we could do to combat climate change is to reduce our food waste. In America, nearly 2% of GDP has been on food we never eat, which is just insane to think about. 2% of everything that we spend is on food we never eat, from production to transportation to the disposal. And so even around the food waste chain, there's still a lot more solutions that are needed. So even if that's going to be what we're producing at the farm level, what's going to waste? What can we do with it? Can we reuse it? Can we turn things into other products? I was reading an article recently about there's a new kind of leather that's going to be... It's already kind of on some runways, but it's made out of banana peels. That's a social entrepreneur that thought of that.   I love the fact that you're so welcoming and you're trying to bring people in. And that brings up the book that you've published recently, "Everybody Eats," and it's there to inspire young people in the fight against hunger. It is beautiful. And I see my daughter in this text and so I'm really appreciative of it. And it was illustrated by Nadia Fisher. And there is also a website with resources for parents and kids and teachers. What do you want to accomplish with this outreach effort?   I am often asked, will I solve hunger in my lifetime? I want to say yes, but I have to think possibly not. Hunger grows every single year. I mean, there's a new study I just was reading that it was in the Washington Post two days ago. It's increased 12%. Childhood poverty is up 20%. So sometimes I'm going, or you make the shot, we're at Duke, right? This is a basketball place. So, you make this shot and you can't keep your hand there because the team is already down, the other team's already on the other side of the court. That's often how I feel about hunger. It's like I do something that's really good. It's monumental. We've got grocery stores in schools, we're feeding students, and then I read that childhood poverty is up 20%. How do I leave a legacy that really focuses on solving hunger? I need to inform the next generation and I need to do it in a way, and how I wrote that book is really my story in the eyes of a kid. Me learning that one of my friends, my college roommate did not have food in her household, and that shaping my whole life. And now thinking like your daughter, what would she come back and tell you if she learned that a friend of hers at school doesn't have food in her kitchen like you have food in your kitchen? And they ask questions, and they want to understand that. She goes on this journey asking grocery stores and her school like, "Hey, what's going on with this food? People are going hungry. My friend at school doesn't have access to food," and she's trying to help her friend. And the reality is just like with my friend and the young protagonist in the book, her father just lost the job. I mean, so many people read these stories. I think the most recent article I saw said something like 75% of Americans are living... Are one paycheck away, just one paycheck away. And to see that, that happened to my friend, and it's the most jarring thing that has ever happened to me, probably in life. Because I had a completely different picture in my mind of what hunger looked like until that happened to me. And this happened to me probably three years into feeding people that were experiencing homelessness on the street. I've been feeding people for over a decade of my life. To learn that someone who had volunteered with me, someone who had been out feeding people with me, that they too wouldn't have food in their home, it changed my whole life and my life story. I use all the proceeds from the book to fund a Neighborhood Eats program where I feed kids on the weekends, and I know that I'm making an impact in the lives of children. And they will. My hope is in 15, 20 years, you'll be sitting here talking to someone else who's doing something around this. That's the goal.   You've touched on this, but I just want to push it a little bit further. Food waste and hunger are longstanding challenges and they touch people all along the supply chain. How do you manage the complexity of this problem?   Yeah, I think we have to continue to focus on the verticals that we're really good at because it is big. You'll probably think I'm lying to you, Norbert. I may get a hundred phone calls and emails a week. "Hey, we need Goodr here. We want it... How can I bring this here? Can I bring this to my community? I need food. My senior home needs food. The trailer park that we live in, a lot of us are... It's rural. We're not near a grocery store." I look at myself as trying... I think it's like hero overload. I'm trying to solve all this. How do I get to Canada? Oh, someone just called me from Denmark. How do we go to Denmark? How do we get here? I think what I have to really focus on is US first. I do really well with large scale venues, colleges and universities, enterprise corporate cafeterias, stadiums and arenas, airports, convention centers, places where there's a lot of food in one location. A lot of people wonder, why don't you go to small restaurants? We get calls from, "Hey, we have a deli in Long Island, New York," And we're like, "Hey, we're not there yet, but here's our resource guide for how you can donate food. Here's organizations that you can look for in your community. Here are ways you can create your own food donation programs." We try and give them resources to still solve the problem while realizing that we can't do it all ourselves. And I could tell you as an entrepreneur and as a social entrepreneur, that's the hardest thing ever. Because at first, when I first started Goodr, I'm very happy people in Canada didn't call me then because I probably would've been from Atlanta to Vancouver, and just missing a whole other part of the process. But you've got to follow the process and you've got to get really good at something and then drill in and just become the best at it. The best in class. And that's what we... When we have our all-hands meetings and our team retreats, we talk about what are we the best at? And we also say are there things that we're doing that we're not good at? And to your point, that's why I said I'm inviting other people in, right? Because I know that there's other use cases. We don't work with grocery stores. That's something that's really fascinating to a lot of people. I spent probably the first six months of customer discovery, when I was really trying to figure out who are going to be the Goodr customers that we're going to pitch to of working with trying to work with grocery stores. And what I learned is the two largest grocers in the country created and kind of funded Feeding America. There's a strong system there. I was like, okay, they've got that. Now I'm still trying to work with them on prepared foods. That's my hope with the grocery stores now is those rotisserie chickens, those are the things that don't get donated and so that's what we're really trying to focus on. But the shelf stable things, the produce items, they have a strong solution for that. And it took me six months of trying and hitting roadblocks to see that sometimes people don't want to change what they feel like they've focused on. I had to go and say, okay, well where's the food not going? Where's it missing? And I realized it was prepared foods. And that's why I'm really trying to stay on those rotisserie chickens at these grocery stores, because I think if a parent can get a rotisserie chicken, you could pull some other things together. The meat is kind of what you really need.   So how do you stay inspired?   I try and keep my eye on the prize. I got an email from a lady and her name was Bertha, so I've assumed that she was a senior. Her email said to me, Norman, "I just want to thank you guys for your food today. When I got home, my meat wasn't brown. It was fresh and everything was good. And it came from good stores, I could tell it was quality." And I'll never forget that because I thought just imagine, she's saying I got meat that's fresh. That's her thing. I'm hungry. I'm getting food from your organization and it's good, and I'm shocked by that. So shocked that I needed to send an email to say, "Hey, when I got home today, you gave me something that was good." So that's the stuff that I think keeps me going. I got another email from a lady; this is when we were doing a lot of work. We did a ton of work around hunger during the pandemic if you can imagine. And her email was just like, "I was sitting on my porch, my kids were sleeping, they were napping. And my only thought was what am I going to feed these kids when they wake up? because they're going to wake up hungry. Kids ask me for snacks. We're running low, we don't have anything. And I get a call from a driver named Jarvis who says, 'I'm around the corner. This is Goodr. I've got this food delivery.' And not only did he bring a box of food for my family, but he also brought me a pizza that was warm." because we had... I think Papa John's at the time was giving us pizzas, this is heavy in the heat of the pandemic, to deliver boxes of food that we were bringing to families. And she was just like, "This was a godsend." And she said that we gave her hope in her darkest hour, and I'll never forget that. Those are two emails, and I think both of those emails are from 2020, 2021, that still are in my head today. I think about that as a guiding light to continue to keep going and just knowing that we are really making change.   Bio   Jasmine Crowe-Houston is the creator of Goodr, a tech-enabled sustainable food waste management company that strives to eliminate hunger and save food from landfills.

Jessie Woo and Zach Campbell put a bow on season two of Rap Sh!t. We're talking about how birthday parties are different down in Dade County, reading the room, and pussy popping for progress. Plus, reading the tea leaves about what the future holds for the girls and a spirited debate whether Lamont deserves the title of father of the year.

Today's guest is Chris Tissue from CU Collaborate. Chris and Mark discuss their work on getting a large community charter expansion for Dade County Federal Credit Union. This was the first and only NCUA-approved community charter expansion that required a public hearing due to its size. The public hearing process begins when a federal credit union asks to serve a specific local community. The proposed community must have a population of at least 2.5 million and include more than one political jurisdiction. Join this valuable conversation to find out more about this community charter expansion. You can download a case study on the process here:https://www.cucollaborate.com/credit-union-research/dade-county-fcu-case-studywww.cucollaborate.com

During the 1980's and early 90's, tourists in South Florida were being targeted by robbers at an alarming rate. In 1993 alone, eight international visitors were murdered in Dade County.

When Hilton James's wife, the only elected African American judge in Dade County, FL, begins receiving racist hate mail threatening her and Hilton and their two children, he understandably becomes obsessed with discovering who the culprit is and protecting his family from them. However, this crisis is not the only one he is facing. After years of feeling that he had moved on from a childhood trauma involving his grandmother, he is once again facing disturbed sleep and weird nightmares, both when he sleeps and while waking. As he negotiates these two monstrous situations, one external and one internal (and possibly supernatural), he faces the terrifying possibility that he could stop the stalker and still lose his family, and maybe even his own sense of self.     Recommended in this episode: Gabrielle Zevin's Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Grady Hendrix's How to Sell A Haunted House UP NEXT: Lisa Loring and the Wednesday Addams legacy and Isabel Cañas's The Hacienda Buy Toil and Trouble here! 

This podcast episode features the different Dade County courthouses that were located in the City of Miami from the formation of the county. Dade County was created in 1836 and the county seat resided in Indian Key, along the banks of the Miami River, and in Juno, until a county-wide vote placed it in the City of Miami in 1899. The first county courthouse in Miami was located in a two-story building on the east side of Avenue D, the future South Miami Avenue, from 1899 until 1904. The first courthouse located on Twelfth Street, the future Flagler Street, opened in 1904 and was expected to accommodate the county's business for fifty years. However, the growth of the county required a larger courthouse by the mid-1920s. Today's Dade County courthouse was opened on September 6, 1928, but will soon be replaced by a new structure being constructed just west of the current building.

The year 1972 was a special year for the Miami metropolitan area. It was an election year when South Florida hosted the political conventions of both major parties, when the sitting president made Key Biscayne famous as the winter White House, and when Dade County approved a $553 million “Decade of Progress” bond issue to fund projects that would upgrade the county's infrastructure and cultural institutions. It was also the year of the “perfect season” for the Miami Dolphins. Tune into this week's podcast episode to hear about the early history of the Miami Dolphins and that magical season in 1972. Perfection, or going undefeated and untied for an entire season through the championship game, is a feat that had never been accomplished before or since the Miami Dolphins of 1972.
