DescriptionIn the wake of the news this week of Pope Francis' death, I immediately wondered what we could do here at Better Preach to honor his legacy, teaching and example - particularly around Preaching. For a while I wanted to do a dive into his first major letter to the Church, the Joy of the Gospel, from 2013, and look closely at his lengthy section in that document on homiletics. And thanks to Fr. Craig Vasek, who joined me way back in the beginning on episode 2 of Better Preach, he agreed to join me again at the last minute here to look back at Pope Francis' longest magisterial teaching on Preaching. Father Craig Vasek currently serves as pastor of St. Bernard's Catholic Church in Thief River Falls, Minnesota. Ordained in 2010 as a priest of the Diocese of Crookston, Minnesota, Fr. Vasek is a graduate of the Pontifical North American College in Vatican City, having obtained a Licentiate of Sacred Theology in 2011. Father Vasek has worked extensively with the Missionaries of Charity of Saint Teresa of Calcutta in Europe, Asia, Africa, and North America. He has produced works on the topics of Scripture and the Spiritual Life, and served as Specialist for the National Eucharist Revival with the US Conference of Catholic Bishops.Check out Fr.

Each episode, host Yowei Shaw connects a guest with the “proxies” they need - experts and individuals with shared experience. Not an advice show and definitely not therapy, Proxy offers something different: a space for people to confront, commiserate and even find the comedy (or cringe) through frank conversation.Website: https://www.patreon.com/ProxyPodcastWhat I Liked About This EpisodeIt's from a former NPR employee so lots of cool mood music and great recording.

DescriptionIn the increasingly competitive landscape of VCs and startups, there is a growing trend where founders and VCs engage in content creation to establish their legitimacy and thought leadership. Through podcasts, articles, and social media platforms, they share insights, experiences, and expertise, fostering a transparent and accessible platform for people to gain conviction in them. This content-driven approach not only enhances their personal and professional brands but also contributes to knowledge-sharing and community-building. As simple as this is, there are still surprisingly few who do it regularly and well. On this episode, we had the absolute pleasure of having on one of our favorite content creators x VCs: Illai Gescheit, Venture Partner at Siemens Energy Ventures.Illai Gescheit, based in London, started in medical devices and startup development. After contributing to the development of insulin pumps for diabetics, he ventured into cloud computing and consumer software startups, eventually joining Amazon to lead their startup and venture capital programs. Currently, he serves as a venture partner at Siemens Energy Ventures, focusing on piloting and investing in climate and energy startups. He has also served in a number of advisory roles including Techstars, Google, MassChallenge, and the World Economic Forum.Illai is very thoughtful in how he communicates nuances of piloting technology, managing your board, engaging with big oil, and other pressing topics in CT VC.

DESCRIPTIONIn this week's pod, I am joined by Mike Rogers, our VC Partner, to chat about the state of the market, especially in relation to technology companies and the venture capital space. We discuss the disappointment in recent tech IPOs, which have not performed as well as expected. Our conversation touches on the importance of strong IPOs for the entire venture ecosystem, as they drive liquidity events for investors and unlock talent for new ventures.Our conversation dives into the changing landscape of venture capital, including the shift from traditional seed rounds to larger pre-seed rounds and the high expectations for Series A rounds. We emphasize that building real businesses with solid fundamentals is more important than inflated valuations. Thanks Mike for joining me this week, always a good time.Links:Follow us on Twitter: @mpd, @interplay, @MikeyjrogPodcast Links: Website, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

DESCRIPTIONIn this week's pod, we celebrate our 100th episode! I want to acknowledge the work of our amazing podcast producer, Will Richardson who keeps this going. The main topic of discussion is pivoting in the context of startups and entrepreneurship. Phuong, Incubator Partner at Interplay, provides insights into the pros and cons of pivoting and how to approach it strategically. She emphasizes that pivoting is a natural part of the early stages of a business and suggests that founders should continually evaluate and make changes to optimize their product, customer base, business model, and positioning. Phuong also offers guidance on recognizing the right time to pivot, such as when initial efforts are not yielding results or when external factors impact the business. We discuss the importance of receiving honest feedback, not settling for vague responses and emphasize the value of finding the right balance between pivoting and sticking with a failing idea.Thank you to Phoung and to our listeners for celebrating our 100th episode!Links:Follow us on Twitter: @mpd, @interplay,Podcast Links: Website, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn

DescriptionIn this podcast we have focused almost all of our attention on helping people get better at giving discrete talks, teachings, or testimonies to Catholic audiences (at retreats, conferences, in homilies, ministry nights, you name it.).But there's another kind of speaking, in the Catholic world, that is super important and often overlooked and it DOESN'T involve addressing an audience through a keynote talk, teaching, or testimony. And that's the role of an emcee.Sometimes called a host, the emcee plays a really influential and important role for many Catholic events. But what makes for a great emcee and what skills does an emcee need that isn't required of other kinds of talks? Today, I'm joined again by my good friend and occasional co-host, Connor Flanagan as we dive deep into the guiding principles of How to be a great emcee.

DescriptionIn today's episode, Shawnnah Monterrey discusses the 3P510k - which is short for the 510k 3rd Party Review Program. This is a lesser known program, but there can be significant benefits from using it, which we talk about during the episode. Some of the issues we discussed include:How utilizing this program can accelerate the submission process, or at least remove some uncertainty around the timelineWho this program is for - not just for small startups, but rather how even experienced Regulatory Affairs specialists working at large corporations can benefit from this program.Lastly, we don't usually get into the specifics of cost and expenses, but we even discuss some of the differences in how much you'll pay using the 3P510k route vs. the traditional submission route.Shawnnah Monterrey is the founder of BeanStock Ventures after nearly a 20-year career as a technical leader. Shawnnah was responsible for developing strategies and leading complex global product development programs and functional management of software and software quality assurance departments for both startup and mature organization with emphasis on the development of medical instruments, life science, diagnostics, clinical applications.Reference Links:Shawnnah Monterrey on LinkedInBeanstock VenturesEtienne Nichols on LinkedInGreenlight Guru softwareFDAs 3P510k page
