In this episode, we’re joined by Tim Riley, founder of Property Collectives, to explore a new way of thinking about housing—one rooted in collaboration, not speculation. Tim breaks down how the group build model works, why it’s gaining traction, and how it empowers people to co-create their homes rather than buy off the plan. We cover a wide range of topics, including long-term land leases, co-op residency structures, cost-based living models, and how these ideas could offer an alternative to rising rents and traditional home ownership. Tim also talks through the realities of group decision-making, equity capital requirements, and the mindset shift needed to embrace collective development. If you’re interested in housing affordability, innovative ownership structures, or just want to understand where the future of property might be heading, this conversation is packed with insights. Tune in now to hear how Property Collectives is challenging the status quo in Australian housing.

In this episode, I sit down with Maria from Soft Landing Missoula- an incredible nonprofit helping refugee and immigrant families build new lives in Montana. We talk about how they got started, how they fund their work, and the emotional reality of fundraising in a world that's constantly shifting.Maria shares what it's like to lead fundraising efforts at an organization where over half of their revenue comes from individual donors and what she's hearing from those donors right now.

Sometimes donors just need to process what's happening in the world, and Maria's learning how to hold space for that while keeping her focus.We also talk honestly about what it means to lead yourself well during tough times, how to listen without taking everything at face value, and why emotional intelligence might be your most important skill as a fundraiser.What we cover in this episode:The mission and impact of Soft Landing MissoulaWhy people in their community give and keep givingNavigating the emotional side of donor conversationsThe difference between what donors say and what they doFundraising challenges in uncertain political and economic timesWhy you should trust the data over the noiseWhat bravery looks like when you're asking for big giftsMy favorite moment? When we talk about how life is always "lifeing" for your donors—even when it's not making headlines. It's a powerful reminder that generosity isn't always logical or linear, but it is resilient.Donors are still giving. The work still matters.

With libraries struggling for limited resources in many communities around the world, growing politically motivated protests, and some people questioning libraries' relevance, it is more important than ever to ensure a library's services and programs meet the needs of the local community.

Our focus is on VOICECorps, an essential service for individuals with visual impairments in Ohio. Featuring guests Mark Jividen, the Executive Director, and Dana Sims, the Marketing and Development Director, the episode explores the organization's impactful work, its adaptation to new technologies, and the crucial role of volunteers.Mark Jividen starts by discussing how the prevalence of blindness has shifted over time. Previously, many young people were affected by diseases now largely conquered. Today, the issue is more prevalent among the aging population due to conditions like diabetes, glaucoma, and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). This rise in blindness among the elderly population coincides with a reduction in traditional support systems, leading to increased isolation. Dana Sims outlines how Voicecorps serves this community by providing real-time news and information, such as reading grocery ads, which helps foster independence. The service also offers entertainment and a friendly voice, creating a sense of community and combating isolation. Volunteers, who often form long-term relationships with listeners, are integral to VOICECorps' operations. Sims notes that the service's programming is reminiscent of old-time radio, blending news and entertainment in a holistic manner.Daily broadcasting operations at Voicecorps are comprehensive, starting with live broadcasts from 7 AM to 10:30 AM, including segments like the Wall Street Journal and local news. Most content is prerecorded and undergoes quality checks before broadcast. If you like this episode, please let us know. We appreciate the feed back, and your support of offset costs of producing the podcast!The organization has consistently upgraded its equipment to a fully digital operation, funded by state capital budgets and local foundations over the past six years. VOICECorps offers programming in two formats: live and on-demand, akin to podcasting, and began streaming content in 2001. They are now transitioning to a podcast platform for easier access and subscription.Listeners can provide feedback and suggest new materials through a feedback line, and the service is accessible via several methods including live streaming on their website, smart speakers, over-the-air broadcasting in several Ohio cities, virtual TV channels, and SAP channels on Ohio cable. Applications are available for both Android and iPhone users. Voicecorps encourages listener engagement to provide feedback to supporters and volunteers.Founded by individuals with visual impairments and utilizing FM radio subcarriers for background music, VOICECorps launched on November 17, 1975, and is approaching its 50th anniversary. It was one of the first such services in the U.S. and remains unique due to its initiation by service recipients. The podcast highlights how Voicecorps reduces isolation among people, particularly the elderly, by providing timely information and connecting them to resources. The episode ends with a call to foster relationships, share contact information, and continue to impact lives positively.Key Moments00:00 Broadcasting career spanned decades in Columbus radio.06:05 Early talking books: vinyl for accessibility.07:20 Voicecorps began broadcasting timely news, 1975.12:51 Empowering independence through accessible news and advertisements.16:05 Volunteers read, diverse backgrounds, remote flexibility.20:32 Programs can be recorded and shared remotely.23:25 Technology accelerated growth during pandemic challenges.28:31 Broadcast isn't live after 10:30; it's prerecorded.32:04 Transitioning from streaming to...

Today, we're kicking off the second episode in our series on childfree trailblazers with a conversation with Marie Bernardy. Marie and her husband, Bill, met in 1968 and have been married since 1974. She served as Development Director for Planned Parenthood (in both CA and OR); Vice-President for Development at two CA hospitals, and Executive Director of two library foundations in both California and Oregon. After reading a Time article about the National Organization for Non Parenthood, she and Bill became involved in the St. Louis chapter,helping to grow its membership and visibility. Eventually both Marie and Bill served on theNON/NAOP board, each as President. Marie's presidency coincided with the dissolution of theorganization in 1982. Marie & Bill made many local and several national appearances (including a Phil Donahue segment on the “Today” show) on behalf of NAOP. We ask her about her experience receiving physical threats, nasty late night phone calls, and a several weeks-long “dialogue” in the newspaper with the Archbishop of St. Louis, who called for their excommunication were some darks spots in an otherwise exciting, fulfilling and educational journey with NAOP.Dinky is now on Substack — free of charge!

On today's episode, we welcome Jameson Parker, a seasoned producer with roots in theater, who's climbed the ranks in the world of film and television. As a Development Director at Bright Light Pictures, Jameson has developed a keen eye for projects that align with his passion and resonate with audiences. Starting as an actor, he transitioned to production, taking on the mentorship of industry veteran Sean Williamson, and carving a niche in the independent cinema space.Jameson shares his journey from pursuing theater in Vancouver to becoming a producer with a versatile portfolio, which includes films like Summer of 84 and the Netflix series Julie and the Phantoms. He explains the art of “breaking in” as an evolving process, emphasizing perseverance and the invaluable nature of mentorship in an industry where relationships shape opportunities. In his case, connecting with Sean was pivotal, as it granted him guidance and resources to navigate the challenging waters of production. As he aptly puts it, “There's an element of perseverance that permeates every success story—banging your head against the wall until the brick cracks.”In our conversation, Jameson reflects on the state of Hollywood's market-driven focus, where franchises and reboots often overshadow fresh, original stories. He believes true creative fulfillment lies in cultivating unique narratives rather than chasing trends.He references his experience with Summer of 84, which drew inspiration from classic thrillers and managed to resonate with audiences without the typical industry formulas. Jameson champions the importance of bringing something authentic to the screen, arguing, “If you chase what's doing well in the marketplace, you're always going to be behind the eight ball.”For Jameson, networking is less about formal events and more about building meaningful relationships. He recalls his serendipitous meeting with writer Matt Leslie at a networking event, which led to the development of Summer of 84. He stresses that genuine connections often lead to more fruitful collaborations than transactional exchanges. This philosophy has carried him through many projects, as he remains committed to developing authentic connections both on and off set.As the conversation deepens, Jameson delves into the complexities of producing for television versus film. Working with Netflix on Julie and the Phantoms, alongside renowned director Kenny Ortega, has been a “big learning experience” for him. He contrasts this with his independent projects, which allow for more creative control and hands-on involvement.The Netflix series exemplifies the evolving landscape of TV production, where platforms like Netflix provide vast opportunities but also introduce unique challenges due to their expansive, competitive nature.Jameson also speaks to the behind-the-scenes challenges producers face, especially in managing large teams on set. From navigating egos to ensuring open communication, he explains how these aspects shape the production experience. He acknowledges that problem-solving in production can feel overwhelming but emphasizes the importance of keeping a calm perspective. “If it can be solved with money, it's not really a problem,” he says, underscoring his pragmatic approach to navigating production obstacles.In a business defined by collaboration and trust, Jameson has thrived by working with familiar faces, valuing shared experiences over constant change. His career is a testament to the power of resilience, passion, and a deep-seated love for storytelling. As he anticipates his next independent film project, he remains committed to blending his studio experiences with his passion for independent cinema.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/indie-film-hustle-a-filmmaking-podcast--2664729/support.
