Host Dave Gebroe talks with podcast OG Joe Kennedy about the classic psych band's entire recorded output, with commentary on their history, wild stories, and star ratings for every release, including long-form interviews with both Johnny Echols and the members of Baby Lemonade, who've served as Love now for coming up on 35 years. 7 & 7 & 7 Is: The Definitive 21-Episode Story Of Arthur Lee & Love was consciously crafted to act as the ultimate repository of fact and opinion on one of the greatest bands to ever walk the face of the earth, the almighty Love. Part 19 is a raw, honest interview with Mike Randle, Rusty Squeezebox, and David Green, three-fourths of the band Baby Lemonade, who've effectively acted as Love now for over 30 years. Here are just a few of the many things that Baby Lemonade discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: Just how deep their love ran for Love's music previous to crossing paths with Arthur Lee; What they were on track to accomplish before being swallowed up by Arthur to become the new iteration of Love; Their big break moment; How Baby Lemonade compared to the other members of Love who've floated in and out over the years; The various red flags that piled up over time and how they dealt with them; And their collective assessment of their recorded legacy as Love.

How do the world's most forward-thinking organisations use skills intelligence, market intelligence and work intelligence together to stay ahead? In this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, host David Green is joined by Mik Wornoo, co-founder and President of US at TechWolf, to explore how organisations are using three signals together to build a strategic workforce planning strategy that can keep pace with AI, and what that looks like in practice. In this conversation, David and Mik discuss: What skills intelligence, work intelligence and market intelligence each bring to strategic workforce planning, and why all three matter What work intelligence actually means in practice, and how decomposing work into tasks is changing how organisations understand the impact of AI on their workforce How AI is actively reshaping roles right now, and what that means for strategic workforce planning, job architecture and redeployment Real-world case studies from organisations using all three signals to make smarter workforce decisions and align their people strategy with their AI strategy What it actually looks like to get started, and why the barrier to entry is lower than most HR leaders think This episode is sponsored by TechWolf. The world of work is being rewritten faster than HR systems can keep up. Skills age in months. Roles get redesigned quarter by quarter. CHROs have quietly become AI transformation leads, and the data they need to lead it doesn't exist in any HR system.

Hobby Lobby CEO David Green joins Jase, Al, and Zach to talk about the question that changed the way he views success, wealth, and obedience to God. David opens up about the near collapse of Hobby Lobby in the 80s, why his family believes they don't truly own the company, and how costly decisions like closing on Sundays and standing by their faith shaped the business. The guys reflect on Phil's legacy in the duck blind, the power of passing down faith through family stories, and why true success is measured by in eternity.

What does it look like to build a family legacy that outlasts you by seven generations? In this episode of the Refining Rhetoric podcast, host Robert Bortins sits down with Bill High — CEO of Legacy Stone and co-author of The Legacy Life with Hobby Lobby founder David Green — to discuss how Christian families can build a multi-generational legacy of faith, generosity, and intentional vision. Bill and Robert dig into why the nuclear family is in freefall (down from 72% to 37% since 1960), why individualism is the enemy of legacy, and how to move your family from consumers to creators. Bill walks through the practical tools families can use — a family vision statement, mission, values, and generosity habits — to unite around something bigger than themselves. Whether you're just starting out or trying to reverse decades of drift, this conversation will challenge you to stop thinking about the next 20 years and start thinking about the next 150.

From ROI to EROI: How One Entrepreneur Is Helping Eradicate Bible Poverty by 2033 What happens when a retail entrepreneur has a Holy Spirit moment at a Bible dedication ceremony in Guatemala — and never looks at business the same way again? In this episode, host Justin Forman sits down with Mart Green, co-founder of Mardel Christian bookstores and a driving force behind Illuminations, a collective impact initiative uniting Bible translation organizations around the world with one audacious goal: eradicate Bible poverty by 2033. Mart shares the origin story of Illuminations — from a small table of five CEOs and five resource partners meeting monthly in a Dallas airport admirals club — to a movement now involving 300+ people from dozens of organizations who've helped accelerate Bible translation from a projected finish date of 2150 down to 2041, with faith believing for 2033. He also opens up about his family's mission statement, his daily rhythm in God's Word, and what stewardship really looks like when you stop being an owner and start being a steward. Key Topics: The Guatemala moment that shifted Mart's lens from ROI to EROI (Eternal Return on Investment) How Illuminations was built brick by brick — starting with three organizations and growing to a 300-person annual gathering The Stanford Collective Impact framework — and the sixth element Stanford missed (communal prayer) How AI and technology are accelerating Bible translation, cutting projected timelines by decades Why generosity, humility, and integrity are the only character traits Mart looks for in a partner The Green family mission statement: "Love God intimately. Live extravagant generosity." Mart's daily scripture rhythm and the O-I-O-I framework (Open, Insight, Obey, Intimacy) Notable Quotes: "In that moment, I kind of went from ROI to EROI. What's the eternal return on investment?" — Mart Green "Satan always attacks at the point of unity. I guess it's because it's powerful." — Mart Green "There's only two things that last forever — God's Word and the souls of men and women. So if I can get those two combined, it's less of a responsibility." — Mart Green About the Guest: Mart Green is a second-generation entrepreneur and son of Hobby Lobby founder David Green. He co-founded Mardel Christian bookstores at age 19 and has since become a major force in faith-based philanthropy. He is a key resource partner in Illuminations, the world's largest Bible translation collective impact initiative, which is working to ensure that every people group has access to God's Word in their heart language by 2033. Mart and his family of 50 — all living in Oklahoma City — operate from a shared mission: to love God intimately and live extravagant generosity.
What if HR is still thinking too small about AI? In this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, David Green is joined by Paul, Chief Evangelist and Talent Strategist at Visier, to explore why traditional transformation approaches may no longer be fit for purpose, and what HR needs to do differently to keep pace. Join them, as they tackle some of the biggest questions facing the function today: Is the current framing of AI in HR too narrow? Does HR need to operate more like finance to remain relevant? What does it take to move from pilots to real, enterprise-wide impact? And as AI becomes embedded across the business, does people analytics become less visible… or more critical than ever?

Survivors of the Institute in Basic Life Principles describe a recovery process measured in decades rather than months. Former members report entering marriages through courtship systems that prevented independent evaluation of potential partners, receiving educations through the Advanced Training Institute curriculum that left them unable to meet standardized testing requirements, and experiencing faith crises that extended beyond organizational departure to fundamental theological reconstruction. Multiple survivors have reported harassment from Gothard's remaining loyalists after speaking publicly, and Gothard himself publicly characterized his accusers as participants in a conspiracy. Jinger Duggar Vuolo has described her recovery as a process of separating her personal faith from Gothard's doctrinal framework. Recovering Grace continues to operate as a support community for adults raised inside ATI.The organizational and political infrastructure Gothard built over five decades remains substantially intact. IBLP at its peak reported approximately sixty-three million dollars in earnings according to public tax filings. The organization maintained properties across multiple states and operated in over a dozen countries. Gothard's political strategy — internally designated the Joshua Generation — aimed to place homeschooled young people into government positions. The political connections were documented and operational: governors attended IBLP conferences, a member of Congress served on the organization's board, and Hobby Lobby founder David Green purchased properties for IBLP's use including a former college campus in East Texas that now serves as the organization's headquarters.Josh Duggar, raised within the IBLP system, worked as a lobbyist for the Family Research Council in Washington and was later convicted on federal charges related to child sexual abuse material, receiving a sentence of twelve and a half years.Gothard, ninety-one, resigned from IBLP in 2014 after thirty-four women accused him of misconduct and inappropriate behavior, with some alleging the conduct occurred when they were minors. An internal investigation found he had acted "inappropriately." He has never been criminally charged. In June 2025, the Texas Supreme Court denied IBLP's petition to dismiss a lawsuit alleging its teachings were designed to facilitate conditions enabling abuse. Joseph Duggar was arrested in March 2026 on Florida felony charges of lewd and lascivious behavior on a child under twelve. He is presumed innocent. IBLP continues to operate from its Texas headquarters. Its curriculum and teachings remain available. The homeschool legal infrastructure developed in part through IBLP's advocacy network remains operative. This concludes the five-part investigative series.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Bill Gothard didn't build a church. He built an infrastructure for political and cultural influence — and it's still functioning.His plan was called the Joshua Generation. Take the best children from his homeschool network, train them inside his system from birth, and deploy them into government to reshape America. This wasn't aspirational. It was operational. Mike Huckabee, Rick Perry, Sarah Palin, and Sonny Perdue all appeared at IBLP events or publicly supported Gothard. A congressman chaired his board. An Indianapolis mayor sold him a city building for a dollar — and minors from IBLP's training center worked on that mayor's political campaign.The financial scale was massive. Approximately sixty-three million in reported earnings as of 2006. A Texas campus provided by Hobby Lobby's David Green. A Michigan retreat on three thousand acres. International operations in over a dozen countries.IBLP is still a registered nonprofit operating from Big Sandy, Texas. Gothard's seminar recordings are still available. The teachings have not been renounced. The legal protections that shielded IBLP families from educational oversight remain in place.In 2025, the Texas Supreme Court allowed a lawsuit alleging IBLP's teachings were designed to enable abuse to proceed. In March 2026, Joseph Duggar was arrested on Florida felony charges alleging misconduct with a minor. He is presumed innocent.Gothard is ninety-one. He has never been criminally charged. The survivors are still waiting. And the system he built is still operational.This is Part 5 — the final episode of our IBLP series. The machine didn't stop. The question is what happens next.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Are organisations overlooking one of the most important drivers of employee experience and performance? For many, the workplace is still treated as a fixed asset - something to manage for cost and capacity, rather than something to actively design around how work actually happens. In this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, host David Green is joined by Phil Kirschner, Workforce Experience Consultant and author of the famous newsletter, The Workline, to explore why workplace strategy continues to sit outside of core HR and people analytics conversations - and why that needs to change. Drawing on his experience across Credit Suisse, JLL, WeWork, and McKinsey, Phil shares a more practical view of what organisations are missing - from the lack of basic workplace data, to the assumptions that still shape many workplace decisions today. So, hit play to learn more about: Why workplace strategy is still disconnected from workforce strategyThe key data points organisations should be trackingHow leading organisations are starting to think differently about the purpose of the officeWhat the “Chief Work Officer” role looks like in practiceWhy AI is increasing - not reducing - the importance of workplace and experience designThis episode is sponsored by Visier.

Are we finally at a point where the way we've approached workplace learning no longer works? For years, organisations have invested heavily in learning platforms, content libraries and structured programmes. But if we're honest, much of it still feels disconnected from how people actually learn today - especially in a world where employees can pick up new skills instantly using AI tools. So what does effective learning look like now? And how do organisations build an AI-ready workforce without falling back on outdated models? In this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, host David Green is joined by Chris Eigeland, Founder and CEO of Go1, to explore how workplace learning is evolving - and what HR and L&D leaders need to do differently. Drawing on his experience working with L&D practitioners across the globe, Chris shares practical insights on: Why traditional approaches to learning are struggling to keep up How AI is changing not just what we learn, but how we learnWhere organisations are making real progress with AI upskilling - and where they're falling shortWhether technology can finally reduce the compliance burden on HR teamsWhat HR and L&D leaders should prioritise over the next 12–18 months This episode is sponsored by Go1. Go1 partners with L&D leaders around the world to turn AI into a workforce advantage, combining trusted learning expertise with an AI toolkit designed for organisational assessment and skills strategy, ready to deploy when teams need it.

Send us Fan MailThe pressure you feel might not be coming from your workload. It might be coming from a single belief: “It all belongs to me, so it all depends on me.” That idea sounds responsible, even admirable, but it can quietly crush Christian entrepreneurs, executives, and fathers who are trying to lead well while carrying the full emotional weight of outcomes they can't control. I'm sharing a story that stopped me in my tracks, one I heard connected to David Green from Hobby Lobby. As he wrestled with succession planning while the business reached the billion-dollar level, a moment in prayer reframed everything: if he weren't the owner, he'd focus on being a faithful CEO and let the owner handle ownership decisions. Then came the realization that changes how you lead a business, build a legacy, and sleep at night: God is the Owner. We're the stewards. From there, we walk through the biblical framework behind stewardship, including Jesus' parables about servants entrusted with resources and the parable of the talents. We talk about why God provides opportunities, people, and resources, and why we're still accountable to multiply what we've been given. We also bring it home to leadership in the family, where stewardship creates both clarity and freedom without lowering the standard for excellence. If this connects with you, share it with a friend who's carrying too much, subscribe for more marketplace Christianity, and leave a review so more leaders can find the show.

Are we overlooking one of the biggest human consequences of AI at work? As organisations race to adopt AI, much of the conversation has focused on productivity, efficiency, and redesigning work. But far less attention has been given to how these technologies may reshape something just as important: the relationships people rely on at work. To unpack this, in this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, host David Green speaks with Connie Noonan Hadley, organisational psychologist, Thinkers50 Radar thinker, and Research Associate Professor at Boston University's Questrom School of Business. Connie has spent decades studying the social experience of work, including the growing challenge of loneliness in organisations. And drawing on her latest research and conversations with senior HR leaders, Connie shares insights on how AI is beginning to influence not just how work gets done, but how people connect, collaborate, and seek support at work. So, tune in to learn: Why loneliness at work remains such a persistent challenge - even in organisations investing heavily in cultureWhat CHROs are prioritising right now as they navigate AI adoption, organisational redesign, and a rapidly shifting external environmentHow employees are already using AI for things they once relied on colleagues for - from career advice to coaching and problem-solvingWhy return-to-office mandates may not solve loneliness in the way many leaders expectPractical ways HR leaders can protect human connection while embracing AI-driven transformation This episode is sponsored by Hibob.

Have we made the manager's role more complex without making it easier to make good decisions? Over the past decade, expectations on managers have grown significantly. They're expected to make decisions that are fair, data-informed, and financially responsible - often in real time and under increasing scrutiny. Yet in many organisations, the systems designed to support those decisions haven't evolved at the same pace. So, in this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, host David Green speaks with Kenneth Matos, Director of Market Insights at HiBob, to explore what it takes to design better decision environments for modern organisations. Drawing on new global research involving 4,700 people managers, Ken shares why the time spent stitching together data and the lack of a unified HR–Finance view are undermining decision quality - and what leaders must do to enable managers to balance people fairness with financial discipline. Tune in to learn more about: Why decision friction is emerging as a hidden barrier to organisational agility How fragmented data undermines fairness, consistency, and trust in people decisions What changes when HR and Finance operate from a shared contextWhy defensibility is becoming critical in an era of pay transparency and scrutinyHow AI can reduce decision friction when implemented with the right guardrailsWhy designing better decision environments is becoming a core leadership priority This episode is sponsored by Hibob.

Is employee experience due for a reset? For much of the past decade, employee experience has been framed as a competitive advantage - a way to attract talent, boost engagement, and strengthen culture. Yet in today's environment, shaped by economic pressure, evolving workforce expectations, and the rapid rise of AI, many organisations are re-examining whether their approach is still sustainable - or whether, in trying to improve employee experience, they may have inadvertently diluted it. So, in this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, host David Green speaks with Jacob Morgan - author, keynote speaker, and Founder of The Future of Work Leaders - to explore what an employee experience reset looks like in 2026 and beyond. Drawing on insights from interviews with 100 CHROs, Jacob shares why this moment may mark a turning point for accountability at work, and what leaders must do to balance empathy with performance without undermining either. Tune in to learn more about: Why 2026 may be a turning point for accountability in employee experience Whether wellbeing programmes have diluted performance expectations How leaders can balance empathy and high performance standards without appearing anti-employee What the evolving power dynamic between employers and employees means in practice How AI is redefining how work is measured, managed, and valued Why HR must lead - not just manage - the responsible and ethical adoption of AI This episode is sponsored by Hibob.

What can HR learn from private equity, where talent, culture, and leadership are part of the deal thesis from day one? In many organisations, the connection between people strategy and business outcomes is still taking shape. In private equity, however, that connection is immediate and unmistakable, with leadership quality, organisational design, workforce capability, and culture being central to the value-creation plan, with clear timelines, defined expectations, and measurable results. So, in this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, host David Green speaks with Angela Geffre, Head of Human Capital at GrowthCurve Capital, to discuss what this looks like on the ground. Together, they explore what it really means to run HR in a private equity environment, and what the broader HR profession can learn from it. So tune in, and learn more about: The key people questions to ask when assessing a new portfolio companyHow HR contributes to value creation during a 3–5 year investment horizonWhat truly drives performance and retention across industries and organisation sizesHow HR must adapt when moving from large enterprises to fast-moving portfolio businessesHow AI is reshaping products, operating models, and early-career pathwaysWhy HR must lead the responsible and ethical adoption of AI, not just manage its impact This episode is sponsored by HiBob.

The MyPad CEO: David Green on Building Legacy Beyond BusinessIn this remarkable conversation, Hobby Lobby founder and CEO David Green sits down with host Justin Forman at the company's Oklahoma City headquarters to share the story behind one of America's most distinctive faith-driven businesses. From humble beginnings in a 600-square-foot store to leading an $8 billion enterprise with over 1,000 locations, David's journey reveals what happens when stewardship replaces ownership.At 84 years young, David still carries his trusty "MyPad" (a paper notepad) instead of a computer, operates as CEO, and shows no signs of slowing down. This episode explores the pivotal moments that shaped his understanding of true ownership, the Supreme Court case that tested his family's convictions, and the generational framework that ensures Hobby Lobby's mission extends far beyond profit.Key Topics:From pastor's son to retail pioneer: The journey from five-and-dime stores to Hobby LobbyThe Supreme Court case that cost $1.2 million per day—and why they'd do it againWhy closing on Sundays and rejecting Halloween cost millions but gained something greaterThe backyard prayer that changed everything: "What would you do if the Jones family owned it?"Building a family constitution: How 48 family members align around eternal valuesThe danger of generational wealth and why no Green family member gets anything they don't earnGiving half of all earnings away: The mathematics of trying to "out-give God"Legacy planning with a thousand-year horizonNotable Quotes:"God gave you everything you need, any good thing that's in your life. God gave you. I need to be at a point where I died of myself and said no, no, no, this is not mine. I'm a steward." - David Green"If you think it's yours, then you're gonna guide it. But if you really feel like God has given this to you to be a steward of what belongs to him, I think that's a good starting spot." - David Green"We want to make sure we're tied into someone's life for eternity, because they're gonna be very comfortable if they don't know Jesus." - David Green
Most organisations say Strategic Workforce Planning is a priority. Far fewer are prepared for what that actually requires. Because the challenge isn't just predicting how many people you'll need. It's understanding how work itself is changing, how skills are shifting beneath stable job titles, and how today's hiring, reskilling, and entry-level decisions are quietly shaping capability and leadership risk years into the future. In this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, David Green is joined by Vincent Barat, Founder and CEO of Albert, to explore whether organisations are thinking about Strategic Workforce Planning at the right level - and what it really means to make workforce planning truly strategic in today's environment. Drawing on Vincent's experience working at the intersection of business strategy, skills, and workforce dynamics, this conversation explores: Why SWP is shifting from a planning exercise to a capability and risk discipline What truly puts the “strategic” in Strategic Workforce Planning beyond headcount and budgeting Where organisations most often struggle when trying to move from SWP theory to execution How AI is reshaping skills and tasks beneath job titles, and the implications for reskilling and redeployment Why reduced entry-level hiring today could create leadership and succession challenges tomorrow The practical priorities HR and people analytics leaders should focus on right now This episode is sponsored by Albert.

People analytics has spent years building credibility through data. Now the pressure is different. Business leaders aren't just asking for insight - they're expecting direction. Where should we invest? What should we stop doing? What risks are we not seeing yet? But many teams still find themselves pulled back into reporting cycles, ad-hoc requests, and an overemphasis on metrics that don't always lead to better decisions. So what shifts when people analytics starts operating more like a product and less like a project function? In this episode, David Green is joined by Ashar Khan, Head of People Insights and Solution Design at Autodesk, to explore how the function evolves from delivering data to shaping choices at scale. Join this conversation as they discuss: The skills and mindsets modern people analytics teams need beyond technical expertiseWhat an effective people analytics operating model looks like in practice The core capabilities required to bridge HR technology and HR strategy Where “metric fixation” leads organisations toward false confidence and poor decisions Why the assumption that AI automatically means “fewer people” misses the bigger picture Practical advice for CHROs building or redesigning a people analytics function today This episode is sponsored by Worklytics.

AI is changing tasks. Skills strategies are evolving. And yet visibility into capability, cost, and risk across the workforce often remains fragmented. So how do organisations move from reacting to workforce change, to planning for it in a way that actually shapes business outcomes? In this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, host David Green is joined by David Edwards, strategic workforce planning practitioner, advisor, and author of The Strategic Workforce Planning Handbook, to explore what it really takes to make strategic workforce planning work in practice. Join this conversation as they discuss: Why workforce planning can feel “deceptively threatening” inside an organisation What changes when leaders shift from thinking about headcount to thinking about capability, capacity, cost, and risk over time What goes wrong when people analytics and workforce planning operate in parallel Why looking beyond permanent employees reveals hidden workforce risk How AI is forcing organisations to rethink work design, not just skills strategies The stakeholders' strategic workforce planning really needs This episode is sponsored by Worklytics.

David Green is the founder of Hobby Lobby and is a major financial supporter of Evangelical organizations in the United States and funded the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C.

As organisations move into 2026, many leaders are realising that while technology has changed quickly, the fundamentals of how work gets done haven't kept up. Activity is increasing, output is accelerating in places - yet coordination, focus, and decision-making often feel harder than before. So what's actually going on?
