In this episode of the Established Podcast, Steve Johnson, co-founder and general partner at Seguin Ventures, joins Frank Gruber, host of the podcast and Co-CEO at Established and Managing Partner at Established Ventures, for a conversation about entrepreneurship, venture capital, artificial intelligence, fundraising, and what separates exceptional startups from the rest. Steve is a tech executive, entrepreneur, and investor who has been involved with nine early-stage companies, multiple exits, and two IPOs. Today, he invests from pre-seed through Series A, primarily in AI-native software companies. Steve shares lessons from his experience as an operator and investor, including how to recognize big market opportunities, why timing matters, and what he looks for in founders. Drawing on companies including Hootsuite, he discusses the importance of being scrappy, executing when resources are limited, and finding the right "wave" for a startup to ride. The conversation also explores today's venture capital environment and the massive impact of AI. Steve discusses why AI-native software, vertical applications, robotics, and physical AI are attracting significant investment, while explaining why founders may need to focus more narrowly and build stronger defensibility as software becomes easier to create. Frank and Steve also dig into fundraising, including what investors look for at the pre-seed and seed stages, how founders should think about valuations and dilution, the importance of investor fit, and common red flags such as unclear pitches, unrealistic assumptions, and failing to understand the competitive landscape. Finally, Steve looks ahead at the rapidly evolving AI market, drawing lessons from the dot-com era and discussing why founders should focus on real problems, revenue, focused markets, and building a strong financial "war chest" while the fundraising environment is favorable.

Tyler Boyd used to say the Pledge of Allegiance without thinking much about it. Then one word started bothering him: “indivisible.” At first, he simply stopped saying that word. Eventually, a bigger question followed: If Christians already confess Jesus as King, what exactly are they promising when they pledge allegiance to a nation? Craig sits down with Tyler, co-creator and writer at The Christian Exile, to discuss his article, “The Case Against Christians Saying the Pledge of Allegiance.” Together they wrestle with the meaning of faith, loyalty, obedience, and allegiance—from the Greek word pistis and “Jesus is Lord” to Romans 13, competing loyalties, patriotic rituals, and the witness of early Christians like Polycarp and Speratus. Can Christians respect earthly governments without pledging allegiance to them? And when we say No King but Christ, what does that actually demand of our loyalty? Listen and consider the words for yourself. Inside this conversation: Should Christians say the Pledge of Allegiance? Why Tyler stopped saying “indivisible” Is a pledge an oath? Respect vs. allegiance to government Pistis: faith, faithfulness, loyalty, and allegiance What “Jesus is Lord” means in Tyler's argument Can Christians have dual allegiance? Ordered loyalties vs. mutually exclusive loyalties Romans 13, Acts 17, and Revelation Polycarp, Speratus, and early Christian witness Social pressure around patriotic rituals Flags, patriotism, and worship in church Staying in Christian community across disagreement

For some kids in our area, Friday's school lunch is the last meal they can count on until Monday's breakfast. Janet Michael checks back in with Elise Stine-Dolinar of Bright Futures Frederick/Winchester to talk about the hidden hunger in our local schools, and how neighbors across Winchester and Frederick County are helping more than 1,200 students get fed every week. Elise walks through what goes into a weekend food pack, why fewer kids take the bags home as they get older, and how discreet school food pantries (one uses a clickable "hall pass") are reaching middle and high schoolers who'd rather go hungry than be seen. She also explains why allergy-friendly food matters, which donations are "gold" (and which to keep at home, like pickled beets), and how you can drop off food, shop the wish list, or give a few dollars that go further than you'd think. If you've ever wondered how to help a local kid in need, this conversation is a great place to start.

Even a small volunteer commitment can deliver lasting professional and personal returns.Accounting ARCWith Donny Shimamoto and Byron PatrickCenter for Accounting TransformationA single meeting changed the trajectory of Byron Patrick's career.Early in his career, the owner of Patrick's firm, who was serving as chair of the Maryland Association of CPAs, invited him to come along to a meeting. Patrick found himself in a room with established leaders discussing the future of the profession.“I was like, ‘Is it this easy? Can I just show up to this meeting every week and be in this room?'” Patrick recalls. “Because if so, y'all aren't going to get rid of me.”Twenty-six years later, Patrick, CPA.CITP, senior product manager for Karbon and founder and part-time educator for TB Academy, can trace much of his professional growth to that invitation.

New Teacher Talk welcomes Abby Bartle, a fourth-year English teacher at Oswego High School in Oswego, Illinois, for an honest conversation about getting involved in your school community without running yourself into the ground. Hosted by Dr. Anna Quinzio-Zafran and Dr. Beth Wilkins, this episode is full of practical guidance from someone who has done a lot, running the school website, coaching, sponsoring clubs, tutoring, volunteering, and finishing a master's degree, and has learned where the limits need to be. Abby walks through the many doors into school involvement, from coaching and sponsoring activities to simply showing up at student events like games, musicals, and poetry slams. She makes the case for committees and PLCs as a way to grow fast, sharing how joining a curriculum-rewrite committee in her first year became the best professional decision she made, even though it took time to find her voice among veteran teachers. She talks candidly about mentorship on both sides of the relationship, the realities of pursuing a master's degree, and how she funded hers through coaching. Throughout, she keeps returning to one idea: say yes on purpose, and protect the time that keeps you whole.

Betsy Harris was born healthy in October 2023. By four months her parents had noticed one leg looked different, and the answer seemed simple: a completely dislocated hip nobody caught at birth. She was casted, she started physical therapy, and the milestones still didn't come. At fourteen months her orthopedic surgeon suggested genetic testing. The results took until August, and the neurologist in New Orleans came back with congenital muscular dystrophy, a rare neuromuscular disorder affecting nerves, muscles and brain. She didn't know of another child anywhere with Betsy's specific mutation. Amanda Harris works in medicine and had never heard of it. Within two months, she and Tyler had started a nonprofit. Tyler and Amanda walk Andrew through what happens after a diagnosis with no treatment behind it. They explain how a few hundred emails built Betsy a medical team running from Boston Children's to the University of Iowa, how researchers at Atrium Health are breeding mice with Betsy's exact mutation so a therapy can finally be tested, and how Facebook groups led them to about ten families worldwide, including a mother in Ireland who'd been alone with this for five years. They also talk about the elephant sound Betsy makes when she's happy, which other CMD kids make too, and which became the logo. Their first Elephant Run at Jones Park raised over $70,000. The inaugural Fight CMD Golf Classic is November 16 at Windance Country Club in Gulfport, with registration at fightcmd.org under Get Involved. 3 Key Takeaways 1. The Delayed Diagnosis A dislocated hip caught at four months looked like the whole explanation, and it cost them time. Betsy was casted, treated and put in therapy, and the missed milestones got written off as a consequence of the hip. It took until fourteen months and a surgeon's suggestion of genetic testing to find out something else was going on. 2. Nobody Is Coming Pharmaceutical companies don't develop drugs for ultra-rare disease, so the Harrises were told plainly that there was nothing available, no one knew how long Betsy would live, and the only certainty was that it would get worse. That's the moment the nonprofit starts. Fight CMD exists because the alternative was waiting. 3. The Community Is the Research Budget Over $70,000 came in at a first-year 5K, from a Gulf Coast town where fifty-plus businesses signed on. That money is what funds the mouse model at Atrium Health, and the mouse model is what makes testing a therapy possible. If it works, it's the first therapeutic approach ever attempted for this form of CMD.

Send us Fan MailEver wonder what actually goes into creating and maintaining the trails we love to ride?This episode, Anna and Juli are joined by super special co-host and guest Carla Chandler to talk about what happens behind the trails—and why our local mountain bike organizations need all of us.Carla shares her journey from mountain biker to serving on the board of her local trail organization, what she's learned along the way, and why you absolutely do not need to be an expert to get involved.We're talking trail building and maintenance, working with landowners, fundraising, advocacy, board life, and the countless things happening behind the scenes every time we roll onto a trail. Plus, we dig into why having women at the table matters and the unique perspectives we can bring to our local riding communities.And here's the thing: getting involved doesn't have to mean joining a board or swinging a Pulaski.
Largely due to Donald Trump's energy policies, electricity bills are climbing across the country. But according to conservative energy advocate David Jenkins, much of what Americans are being told about renewable energy in order to protect the fossil fuel industry simply doesn't hold up.In this episode of Lean to the Left, Jenkins, president of Conservatives for Responsible Stewardship, challenges some of the most common myths surrounding solar, wind, fossil fuels, and the reliability of America's power grid. He argues that renewable energy is no longer the expensive, unreliable alternative critics often portray—and that in many cases, it is now cheaper than coal and natural gas.Jenkins also sharply criticizes Trump administration energy policies, including the cancellation of offshore wind projects and efforts to keep aging coal plants operating. He says those decisions can force utilities to rely on electricity that costs far more to produce, with the added expense ultimately landing on customers.The discussion also explores:Why wind and solar helped stabilize the Texas grid during extreme weather;How battery storage has changed the renewable-energy equation;Why some utility commissions may be protecting corporate profits instead of consumers;How fossil-fuel interests help fuel misinformation about renewables and electric vehicles;Why Jenkins believes conservation and responsible energy policy are fundamentally conservative values;What consumers can do when utility rates keep rising.Jenkins argues that the energy debate should not be about ideology.“There is no red or blue or right or left energy. Energy's just energy.”And right now, he says, renewables often make the most economic sense.Conservatives for Responsible Stewardship works on energy, conservation, public lands, and wildlife issues.

The State of Arkansas told Brenda “Granny” Smith to stop attending births. She wadded up the cease-and-desist letter and threw it away. Brenda had already spent years helping mothers when she found herself facing state scrutiny, an arrest warrant, legal bills, and what she says were eight years of Facebook screenshots collected as evidence. Why keep going? Because Brenda believed God had called her to stand beside women who needed help, and she was not willing to let fear of the state become more important than obedience to Christ. That lived experience eventually helped her recognize something about herself: the Christian faith she already practiced fit naturally with anarchy built on consent and non-aggression. Her challenge is simple: “If your faith doesn't require something difficult of you, why are you even doing it?” In this episode, Craig and Brenda dig into:

On the other end of the line was 15-year-old Cassidy Stay, and what she told them was almost impossible to comprehend. Someone had broken into her home, tied up her family and shot them all. When deputies arrived at the house, they expected a horrific scene, but even they couldn't have imagined the devastation waiting inside. A family of seven had been targeted in their own home in broad daylight. Parents and children. An entire family was wiped out in a matter of minutes.

Some organizations run at the speed of the crisis in front of them. Others play a long game measured in decades. The Student Press Law Center does both at once, and Gary Green has spent the last year making sure his small but mighty team knows exactly how.Gary is the executive director of the Student Press Law Center, which since 1974 has managed the hotline that a student journalist calls when someone with authority wants a story to go away — and censorship has been the leading reason for those calls ever since. Last year alone, students and their advisers reached out nearly a thousand times, from across 46 states, with calls up more than 42% in two years. Gary will tell you he could hire ten more people and still be redlining, given the increased demand in student press legal services.So he did something that sounds backward in a moment like this one. Last year, he slowed the organization down. Over the better part of a year, SPLC asked students, advisers, board members, and funders what they actually needed, and turned those answers into a three-year strategic plan called To Our Future, built to stay nimble in a landscape no one can predict five years out.The phrase that anchors this conversation isn't in the strategic plan, though. It's one Carrie brings to it: patient urgency. It's what it takes to answer today's hotline crisis while quietly working, state by state, toward student press freedom laws in all fifty — a New Voices movement that, as Gary says, may take another fifty years to finish.Underneath all of it is a promise Gary makes plainly: SPLC turns no one away. Every student journalist, every call. That matters more than ever now that students working through news-academic partnerships filed more than 44,000 local stories last year — in many communities, the only account of the county commission or the school board that exists anywhere. Plenty of those newsrooms have had SPLC's number for decades.This conversation is about everyone else: the newsrooms that have never heard of it, and have no idea there's been someone standing beside them all along.
