This week, we're firing up the pit with Heather Bublick, co-founder and CEO of Soul & Smoke, alongside her husband and business partner, Chef D'Andre Carter. A writing major-turned-restaurateur with front-of-house and sommelier chops, Heather blends fine-dining rigor with neighborhood warmth to power one of Chicago's favorite barbecue brands. She joins us to talk about Soul & Smoke's evolution with D'Andre -- from initial pop-ups to multiple locations -- the three-year Evanston flagship build, and launching an in-house bottling line. We also talk:  scaling a commissary-driven model without sacrificing craft, why resting brisket beats rushing barbecue at volume, building a values-driven beverage program highlighting BIPOC and women-owned producers, and so much more.

Interview with Karl Hornell - C64 Game Developer, Cartoonist, Author Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/FloppyDays Sponsors: 8-Bit Classics  Arcade Shopper  FutureVision Research   Hello, and welcome to episode 155 of the Floppy Days Podcast for September, 2025!  I'm Randy Kindig, your host for this podcast, where we talk about the computers that got many of us started in our careers and which still hold a lot of interest for us today. This month, I'm bringing you another interesting interview with someone who at an early age started developing commercial-grade software for the Commodore 64, which started him on an amazing trajectory with his career in software development, cartoonist, and more.  His latest efforts include branching out into writing science fiction, which we will also discuss today. The person I'm referring to is Karl Hornell (Her-NELL). It's also an interesting story around how this interview opportunity came to me.  I'm not used to getting contacted by an ad agency.  This one indicated that their client, Karl, had just recently published a book and was looking for ways to advertise the book.  They suggested that Floppy Days would be a great fit based on Karl's background and could be beneficial for both.  I was skeptical at first, as I always am when I receive unsolicited, possibly spam email.  However, once I researched Karl's background it became clear that he was an accomplished Swedish developer for the C64 back in the day, with some notariety.  I felt his background might indeed be of interest to you, the listeners, and so happily agreed to interviewing Karl for the podcast.  I hope you enjoy Karl's story and will consider taking a look at his new book.

Every day, we do commonplace things & interact with ordinary people without giving them much thought. What we need is a theological guide to thinking Christianly about the ordinary nature of everyday life. Leading ethicist Brent Waters shows that the activities & relationships we think of as mundane are actually expressions of love of neighbor that are vitally important to our well-being. We live out the Christian gospel in the contexts that define us & in the routine chores, practices, activities, & social settings that give ordinary life meaning. It is in those contexts that we discover what we were created for, to be, & to become. Listen in as Dr. Jeff talks with Brent Waters (DPhil, University of Oxford), who is the Jerre & Mary Joy Stead Professor of Christian Social Ethics at Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary in Evanston, Illinois, where he also directs the Jerre L. & Mary Joy Stead Center for Ethics & Values.

Getting Through This with Tom and Scott

Scotty dares to does what on this podcast has been controversial, to put it mildly: He opens the episode with a travel anecdote, in this case about a recent trip to Chicago and the northern suburbs of Northbrook and Evanston, in which everything is wonderful and no accidents occur, no mishaps, no embarrassments... no etc. Everything is wonderful. Instead of chiding Scott about this yet again, this time Tom goes future-positive and imagines Scott's ultra happy anecdotes herald a new kind of story telling, fiction and non fiction, with no villains, no conflicts of any sort, only lovely people being nice!

Kristen Van Gelder is Partner and Co-CIO at Evanston Capital Mangement, where she has spent her entire career since college.  We begin our conversation with the roots of Kristen's career, which corresponds quite closely with the roots and growth of Evanston Capital Management from the Northwestern University Endowment Management Team. Her career has spanned a significant period in the evolution and use of hedge funds in a portfolio and we spend some time on this, given the enduring focus on Evanston on this particular asset class. Kristen's view is nuanced and original and it is particularly interesting to probe beneath the headlines to assess the true state of affairs for this still significant asset area.  Finally we reflect on advice she internalized in recent years (from a unique source, it must be said) to be secure in “running her own race”. We discuss this as advice for the next generation. Thank you to GCM Grosvenor and Resolute Investment Managers, Inc. for sponsoring Series 3 of 2025. GCM Grosvenor is a global alternative asset management firm with a longstanding commitment to supporting small, emerging, and diverse investment managers.

What happens when you mix deep community understanding with big real estate vision? Michael McLean Jr. from Condor Partners joins Dave Dubeau to unpack impact investing—not as a buzzword, but as a strategy that's transforming neighborhoods. Michael explains how Condor Partners approaches development differently. Rather than chasing trends, they spend years getting to know communities before starting projects. From revitalizing 120-year-old office buildings in Chicago to building luxury assisted living in Evanston, their projects are guided by purpose—and resilience. Michael shares the behind-the-scenes story of turning a long-vacant lumber warehouse into a thriving office hub in Pilsen, and how their Evanston project not only houses seniors, but employs locals and uplifts the neighborhood.

District 65 (Evanston/Skokie) involves Dr. Stacy Deemar, a drama teacher in Evanston/Skokie School District 65 in Illinois. She has challenged the District’s allegedly racially charged environment and practice of segregating students and staff. In January 2021, the Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights (OCR) determined that the District violated Title VI of the Civil Rights Act. But soon after President Biden took office, OCR withdrew that finding without explanation.
