Meet Justin Jackson. There's no friend I admire more. In fact, he's my new favorite podcast guest and will be back for Round 2 in October.Justin's a former Marine gunship pilot with over 25 years of service, who transitioned from combat deployments to entrepreneurship. He's built companies ranging from a cybersecurity firm with elite hackers to a mission-driven brewery honoring Gold Star families.Nowadays, he's a husband, dad, and dog-father to a Rhodesian Ridgeback puppy named Lincoln. Professionally, he leads “On Glideslope,” a leadership development venture.In this episode, we rewind to our high school days at Cy Falls, where Justin took over centerfield duties after I graduated (he was Class of 2000). He had the good fortune of playing for Coach Brent McDonald before playing at the Naval Academy. We discuss the mental & emotional side of baseball.Then we get into the role Top Gun played in Justin deciding to be a Cobra attack helicopter pilot. He talks about the contrast between a quiet Iraq deployment and a much more intense tour in Afghanistan's Helmand Province—flying low over desert landscapes, supporting Marines under fire, and the kind of brotherhood only combat can forge.Justin's a natural storyteller with a rare mix of tenacity and humility.Hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did.

That's a big transition, and some people don't handle it very well — they really kind of fall apart.” “Success is living out the life that you have been handed. Your identity was predestined in some ways … but when I see someone living out their calling in life, regardless of how wealthy they are, that's what success is.” “To be successful at anything, you have to live consistently and with repetition to do whatever it is that you want to do well.” “I can't control an outcome. I'm not that powerful, I'm not that good.

Ab DeWeese is a serial entrepreneur, investor, polymath, and AI educator recognized for his ability to distill complex problems into clear, actionable solutions. Mike Petrusky asks AB about his new book, “Essential AI: Your All-in-One QuickStart to Using AI in Business and The Workplace” where he explains the different types of AI systems, including generative AI and custom-built AI for specific business needs. Mike and Ab explore how AI can significantly enhance the efficiency of maintenance and repair tasks by quickly accessing and summarizing technical manuals, but they caution that users must verify the AI's output to avoid errors. Ab believes that data is the "currency of the future” and he says the current AI trend is driving organizations to be more thoughtful about data collection, organization, and labeling, which is essential for building effective AI solutions. Having conversations with chatbots is becoming a fundamental skill for professionals, so Mike and Ab share practical advice and offer real-world examples as they inspire you to be an Asset Champion in your organization!
