Generally, by the time someone gets invited on a show like this they’ve figured out how to tell the story of their business in a way that makes their journey seem like a steady climb from humble beginnings to current success. In telling these histories, entrepreneurs will talk generally about setbacks, but they don’t typically elaborate on specific obstacles. Like, for example, this scenario: Suppose you’re a startup entrepreneur with a new product, and you get the call you’ve been waiting for, from Walmart, with a giant purchase order. Now, instead of spending $10,000 on raw materials, you’ll need $200,000. Your shipping costs are going to go from $5,000 to $50,000. And you’ll need 10 more people to pull this off, which is $1m in new salaries. You can borrow this money, no problem, right? You’re going to be able to pay it back - you have the Walmart purchase order to prove it. But you discover that no traditional lender, like a bank, will lend you money unless you’re (a) profitable and (b) have 2 years of receipts. You don’t qualify in either of those categories. So, what do you do? Well, one option is you go to a national company that’s headquartered here in New Orleans, called Republic Business Credit. Republic Business Credit specializes in what’s called Accounts Receivable Finance. Basically, they will loan a company money based on a purchase order – up to $20 million. Or, in a practice called "factoring," they’ll buy the purchase order off a company – minus a fee – so the company gets cash immediately and when the purchaser pays the invoice, the payment goes to Republic Business Credit. Leigh Guglielmo has been helping companies finance their business at Republic Business Credit since 2011. Today she’s the company’s Senior Vice President of Business Development. Another thing you hear a lot about in a typical startup success story is, the Power Point pitch. Andres Barcelo and his wife, Ashley Webb, moved to New Orleans in 2017 to be closer to Ashley’s family. Three years later, when they had their lives derailed by the pandemic, Andres and Ashley started gr owing vegetables in their 9th Ward neighborhood. When they discovered that okra, beans, cucumbers and peppers grew well, they grew more of them. Till they had so much that someone suggested they could start a farmers market. So, they did. Then they began adding products from other local folks - like bread, hand pies, candles, soap, pickles and jam. And before you know it – without a single Power Point presentation – Andres and Ashley had built a business. Today you can find Barcelo Gardens Fresh Market most days of the week in varying locations, including their flagship location on Piety Street in the Upper 9th Ward, and at pop-ups and markets in The Irish Channel, The Marigny, Harahan, and Napoleonville. There’s a saying people use in general conversation to describe how today is pretty much like every other day: “Business as usual.” Interestingly, you don’t hear a lot of people in business saying that. Mostly because business is typically anything but business as usual. There’s almost always an obstacle, a wrinkle, a problem to solve. Leigh is in the business of solving the biggest problem of them all for most businesses – operating capital. And Andres' business is dependent on the most fickle of all fundamentals – the weather. One thing they have in common is, without a lot of fanfare, they’re both doing something vital for our local business community, and community in general.

By all accounts, it’s difficult to land a job or even an interview right now. There’s all kinds of reasons for that, including a stagnant labor market and sluggish hiring by cautious employers. Recent college graduates are bearing the brunt of what is one of the most challenging markets in years, with entry-level white-collar jobs being especially hard to secure. If you are unemployed and looking for inspiration, you’re in the right place. It took nearly 18 months for my lunch guest Nick Miner to be offered a job in design after graduating from LSU. After months of getting nowhere in his job search, Nick took a more aggressive approach to applying, made an e-portfolio, and started introducing himself to agencies. He ultimately landed a job at Mesh, a local ad agency where he was hired as the art director. Today, Nick Miner owns his own business Miner Design Company, specializing in logo design, branding, art direction, packaging design, illustration and graphic design. Tony Zanders was born and raised in New Orleans but made his career in tech in Boston and Silicon Valley. Eleven years ago, he returned to Louisiana to be closer to family and, during the pandemic, launched his second tech startup, Skill Type. Leaning into an international network of venture capitalists, Tony fundraised a 4 million dollar investment for his company from contacts in London, Silicon Valley, New York, Miami and in Louisiana, proving the old adage “it pays to have friends in high places.” While building his company in Baton Rouge, Tony became a coach and mentor at Nexus Louisiana. In 2024, Tony threw his hat in the ring for the role of president and CEO and was tapped for the position by the board. Today, he oversees 10 million dollars in annual revenue at Nexus Louisiana. After 2020, for a year or two, our default conversation was the pandemic. No matter what we were talking about, everything came back to what was happening before or after Covid. Today, the default conversation, especially in business, is AI. Is AI coming for my job? If so, when? What should I best do to prevent it taking my job, or what should I do if it does take my job? You might notice the use of "if." The fact is, right now, nobody really knows what the future of work will look like. But as it changes, Tony is in the forefront of that change, working with tech companies that are literally creating the future. On the other side of the coin, Nick is proving that no matter how creative technology can be, the source of all that creativity is, after all, a human being with the equivalent of a pen and piece of paper.

Wellness isn’t just kale smoothies and yoga classes anymore. It’s mushrooms as brain boosters, IV drips for recovery, tinctures, biohacking, and more. These trends aren’t fringe, they’re big business, generating $1.8 trillion in U.S. sales alone in 2024. And they’re on the move in Acadiana too. Christiaan's guests on this edition of Out to Lunch are building businesses in Acadiana riding these same waves — functional mushrooms, hydration therapies, supplements, biohacking — they all are part of wellness, and more than a buzzword. Daisy Kerne is co-founder of All Caps Gourmet Mushrooms, founded in 2019 with Michael Campbell. Daisy’s from Loreauville, Louisiana, though she moved back and forth between there and Lafayette during her youth. Daisy studied plant science at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette and balances her time between her mushroom business, doing food demos, and nutrition counseling for cardiac rehab patients. As a single parent, she managed multiple gigs while homeschooling, and when Michael asked, “Hey, do you want to grow mushrooms?”, she took a leap. Their current operations include fresh mushrooms, tinctures, seasoning blends, workshops, and growing kits. DeAnna Smith is founder of Dripsy IV Bar. DeAnna is originally from Pineville, Louisiana, holds a business administration & marketing degree, then became an RN after an accident involving an 18-wheeler changed her perspective. She started doing IV hydration on weekends while working as an insurance case nurse. Deanna gradually built a waitlist for IV treatments, and in 2024 opened the first brick-and-mortar Dripsy IV Bar in Alexandria. That’s Dripsy…as in “everybody in the club getting dripsy.” Since then, Dripsy has grown to three new locations, including adding outposts in Lafayette and Lake Charles in 2025. Dripsy offers IV drips, weight loss options, shots, telehealth, peptide treatments, and biohacking services. Out to Lunch Acadiana was recorded live over lunch at Tsunami Sushi in downtown Lafayette.

Send us a textEver wondered what happens when you compress four decades of work into just 15 years? The math is staggering. At 109 hours per week—a conservative estimate—Sea Org members pack more work hours into their service than most people will complete in their entire careers.The schedule begins at 7:45 AM with a bus ride to the compound, followed by a brief breakfast and mandatory muster where every staff member is accounted for. Then comes production time—making movies, cleaning facilities, manufacturing materials, or whatever your division requires. Lunch lasts a mere 30 minutes (sometimes just 15), including travel time across the 500-acre property. Another muster, more production, dinner, evening work, mandatory study time, and if you're lucky, you might get home by 11 PM to start again tomorrow. The same routine continues seven days a week, with only Sunday morning's "Clean Ship Program" offering a semblance of personal time—though even then, you're cleaning your quarters and doing laundry under supervision.What makes this schedule particularly insidious is how it deliberately fragments relationships. Despite being married for nearly 14 years while in the Sea Org, we estimate we ate meals together perhaps 40 times total. Our schedules were intentionally staggered by an hour, ensuring the organization remained our primary focus rather than our relationship. Many married couples lived like ships passing in the night, sharing living quarters but rarely sharing experiences.The financial reality compounds this control—earning roughly $50 weekly (before taxes), members must purchase their own hygiene supplies, laundry detergent, and even pay for laundry machine quarters. This perfect storm of exhaustion, isolation, and dependency creates an environment where questioning one's commitment becomes nearly impossible.Want to learn more about Scientology's internal operations?

Jesse Morrison (Rick) takes Wolf and Luke through the top stories of the day!
Boston is one of those cities that just gets under your skin in the best way possible. Equal parts old-school history and modern-day hustle, it's where cobblestone streets meet glass skyscrapers, where the story of America was born, and where you can eat your body weight in lobster rolls without a shred of regret.Founded in 1630 by English Puritans, Boston has played host to some of the most pivotal events in U.S. history—the Boston Tea Party, the Battle of Bunker Hill, and even the first public park in America. Today, it's a vibrant mix of college-town energy, cutting-edge innovation, and diehard sports fandom (you'll never hear a “Go Sox!” shouted with more passion than here).I recently spent five days exploring Boston like a local, armed with a loose plan, comfy walking shoes, and an appetite big enough to conquer the city's legendary food scene. Here's how it all went down—my perfect Boston adventure. Day 1: Arrival & First Taste of the CityFlying into Logan International Airport is a breeze—it's practically right in the city. But here's your first Boston pro-tip: skip renting a car if you can. Boston traffic is next-level chaotic, parking is expensive, and the city is surprisingly walkable. Between the subway (locals call it “the T”) and Uber, you'll get around just fine.Of course, I had to test the rental car waters—$368 for two days of a Nissan Rogue—and let me tell you, the line alone made me question my life choices. If you do rent, book with a company that lets you walk straight to the garage and grab your car. Otherwise, hop in an Uber and save yourself the headache.Where to StayI split my stay between two totally different vibes:Hampton Inn & Suites Watertown – Budget-friendly ($100 a night) and great if you don't mind being just outside the city. Parking in Boston can run you $30 a day, so staying here helped balance the budget.Copley Square Hotel (FOUND Hotels) – Right in the heart of Back Bay, this historic gem ranges from $300–$600 a night. My corner-view studio overlooked the breathtaking Trinity Church at sunset, and it felt like waking up inside a postcard. Designed in 1877 by architect H.H. Richardson, this place is dripping with Richardsonian Romanesque charm—arched windows, rough stone, and colorful details. Around Copley, you'll also find:Fairmont Copley Plaza (1912) – A Gilded Age beauty and part of the Historic Hotels of America.Boston Public Library McKim Building (1895) – A Renaissance Revival masterpiece with white marble halls and free daily tours at 2 pm. Don't skip it; the architecture is jaw-dropping.Old South Church (1873) – A National Historic Landmark in Northern Italian Gothic style, complete with multicolored stone and a towering bell.John Hancock Tower (1976) – Boston's tallest skyscraper at 790 feet, shimmering in blue glass.After a long travel day, we celebrated our first night with dinner at Lolita Cocina & Tequila Bar. Order the lobster guacamole and grilled elote—and when in Boston, remember the golden rule: always order seafood. Steaks are for later. Oh, and if you see Scrod on the menu? Don't panic. It's not a weird mythical fish; it's just the white catch of the day—usually cod or haddock. Day 2: Walking Through HistoryIf Boston had a greatest hits album, it would be the Freedom Trail—a 2.5-mile path that connects 16 historic sites and tells the story of America's revolution. You can do it self-guided, join a regular tour, or go all out with an actor-led adventure (think Paul Revere cosplay).Morning Coffee & Boston CommonStart with caffeine at Thinking Cup Coffee Bar, then wander into Boston Common, the oldest public park in America (1634). It's massive, filled with monuments, and now home to the striking Embrace Memorial, honoring Martin Luther King Jr.From there, the trail unfolds like a time machine:Massachusetts State House (1798) – Charles Bulfinch's golden-domed wonder, still home to the state government.Park Street Church (1809) – Once Boston's tallest landmark, it sits on the site of the city's old grain storage.Granary Burying Ground (1660) – Final resting place of heavyweights like John Hancock, Sam Adams, and Paul Revere.King's Chapel & Burying Ground (1686) – Boston's first Anglican church, with over 330 years of history.Boston Latin School Site (1635) – The oldest public school in America; today it's marked by a Benjamin Franklin statue.Old Corner Bookstore (1718) – Once the publishing hub of legends like Hawthorne, Longfellow, and Thoreau. Now… a Chipotle (I wish I were kidding).Lunch at Union Oyster HouseBy now, you'll be starving. Enter Union Oyster House, America's oldest continuously operating restaurant (since 1826). The JFK booth is a must-sit, and yes—you're ordering a lobster roll.Afternoon: Monuments & Baseball MagicDon't miss the New England Holocaust Memorial—six glass towers etched with survivor stories, both sobering and moving.Then, if you're lucky enough to visit in season, cap off your night at Fenway Park. Whether it's catching a Red Sox game, snagging early batting practice passes, or just soaking up the energy at Cask 'n Flagon across the street (hot tip: persistence pays when getting a table here), Fenway is pure Boston. Day 3: More Freedom Trail & North End TreatsStart with breakfast at Quincy Market, the ultimate food hall. Then dive back into history:Old South Meeting House (1729) – Where colonists debated tea taxes and kicked off the Boston Tea Party.Old State House (1713) – Boston's oldest public building, central to colonial politics.Boston Massacre Site (1770) – A simple cobblestone marker for one of America's darkest sparks of revolution.From here, pop back into Quincy Market for another lobster roll (yes, it's worth a second one).Keep following the trail:Faneuil Hall (1742) – “Cradle of Liberty” where fiery speeches once filled the air. Today, it's mostly a giant souvenir shop, but the echoes of history remain.Paul Revere House (1680) – The patriot's humble home. Tours are intimate but no photos allowed inside.Old North Church (1723) – Where lanterns signaled “One if by land, two if by sea.” Take the tour to see the crypt and bell chamber.Cannoli TimeBoston's North End is an Italian dreamland, so refuel at Mike's Pastry with a giant cannoli. (Pro tip: get a few extra to-go. You'll thank me later.)End the night at Bell in Hand Tavern (1795), America's oldest continuously operating tavern. It's rowdy, it's historic, and it's the perfect spot for your nightcap. Day 4: Big Battles & Big ShipsIf your legs aren't jelly yet, tackle the Bunker Hill Monument. Climb the 294 steps for killer views of the city.From there, wander over to the USS Constitution, aka “Old Ironsides,” the oldest commissioned warship afloat. The ship and museum are free and make for an epic history-meets-maritime adventure.For a modern twist, hop in an Uber to the JFK Presidential Library & Museum—a sleek, inspiring deep dive into the Camelot era. Afterward, head to Sam Adams Brewery in Jamaica Plain. Tours start at $10, include tastings, and give you all the Boston beer vibes. Day 5: Art, Rainy-Day Magic & Sunset on the HarborBoston weather can turn on a dime, so I saved indoor treasures for day five.Morning: Museum of Fine ArtsThe MFA is massive, so choose wisely:Jewelry lovers: Beyond Brilliance exhibit (ancient to modern sparkle, with Chanel and Bulgari highlights).Classicists: Greek, Roman, and Byzantine collections.Painters-at-heart: Dutch & Flemish gallery with works by Rembrandt and Rubens.Quirky souls: Dollhouses and temporary Van Gogh exhibits.Fuel up at the museum café before heading out.Evening: Sunset Harbor CruiseOur trip ended on the water, with a Boston Harbor sunset cruise. Even in the rain, the top deck views were worth it. There's a buffet dinner, DJ, and plenty of space to dance—because no Boston trip is complete without one last celebration. Other Boston Must-Dos (If You Have Time)Duck Boat Tour – Amphibious buses that roam the streets then splash into the Charles River. Cheesy? Yes. Fun? Also yes.Cheers Pub – Grab a drink where everybody used to know your name.Green Dragon Tavern – A revolutionary haunt turned modern-day pub.Boston Burger Co. or Wahlburgers – Because you need at least one outrageous burger on this trip. Final ThoughtsBoston is the kind of city that can be done in a weekend but deserves a week. It's history you can touch, seafood you'll crave long after, and neighborhoods that feel like they've been waiting just for you.If you only had one day, I'd say walk the Freedom Trail—it's Boston in a nutshell. But if you want to experience the city like a local? Take your time, eat the lobster rolls, get lost in the cobblestone streets, and maybe—just maybe—let Fenway turn you into a Red Sox fan for life.Boston, you're wicked awesome.

As human beings, we have many shared experiences. Most of us, one way or another, get a haircut. And most of us appreciate the fleeting beauty of flowers. You might think those two mundane observations are devoid of any kind of potential entrepreneurial re-invention. After all, whether your mom cuts your hair or you go to a salon, a haircut is, well, a haircut. Right? And whether you pick your own flowers or buy them from a florist, a week later they’re dead and you throw them out. Right? Wrong on both of those. When you go to a hair stylist and you sit in the chair, most of your time is spent with the hair stylist snipping at your hair with scissors. Actually, hair stylists don’t use plain old scissors. They use specially designed and sharpened types of scissors, referred to as shears. To cut hair, the stylist moves the shears on all kinds of subtle angles. They continually adjust the angle by very fine, delicate, flexing movements of their hand, wrist, arm, elbow, and shoulder. Everything flexes. Except the shears. For 25 years a hair stylist in New Mexico, by the name of Bill Brenton, along with his buddy and partner, Murray Roth, a hair stylist in Madisonville, Louisiana, worked on designing shears that would flex. Bill died in 2008. But Murray kept the dream alive and today Murray Roth manufactures and sells Flex 360: ergonomic, patented shears used by hair stylists across the country and around the world. The engineering trick to the flexing shears is - the loop you put your thumb through is on a swivel. And so, to flowers. Sometimes you pick a few flowers or buy them from a florist or supermarket, to brighten up your living or work space. But other times, that bunch of flowers is more than just a dash of color on your coffee table. They might be the bunch of flowers you held at your wedding. Or flowers from the funeral of a loved one. Or flowers from any number of other occasions that mean something to you. If you’ve ever wished you could keep those flowers forever, now you can. Stephanie Tarrant is a florist and an artist. She combines her talents by taking flowers and preserving them. They look as real as the day they were picked, and they retain their same vibrant colors - forever. Stephanie preserves whole bouquets in resin. She takes flowers and incorporates them into pieces of jewelry. And into dishes and trays. Steph’s company is called, The Crypt Flowers. Its slogan is, “All flowers deserve forever.” Innovation is often born out of frustration. Most of us, when we’re frustrated, complain about things being the way they are. Successful innovators, though, are people who don’t just complain, but decide to do something to change the status quo. At either end of the spectrum - whether it’s something that grows continually, like hair, or something whose life is fleeting, like flowers, both Steph and Murray have been able to improve on what appears to most people to simply be the way of the world.

John discusses the sun-baked and hormonally rattled visage of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. who graced the Senate Finance Committee for several hours of back and forth over the Health and Human Services Secretary's new direction for American public health. During his testimony, Kennedy told the committee he had to fire CDC Dir. Susan Monarez because she lied to Americans – unfortunately it wasn't the lies he wanted her to say. Then, he speaks with journalist Brian Karem on the Epstein files, RFK's brain functions, and Trump's waning popularity. Then lastly, John welcomes back the 2 Taras to talk politics. Tara Devlin is a comedian and the host of the Tarabuster, where she looks at news, politics and history through an unapologetically liberal lens. Tara Dublin is a comedian and author of “The Sound of Settling: A Rock & Roll Love Story”. Together Tara Devlin and Tara Dublin are the co-hosts of THE Tara Show podcast.
