Everyone has a dream. For many young boys, the dream is to become a major league baseball player. Years back, this was especially true for a little boy growing up in Tacoma, Washington. Harmony Talk is honored to share the story of the journey of legendary third baseman, Ron Cey. Known to many as “the Penguin”, Ron played 16 seasons in Major League Baseball. Although best known for covering the “hot corner” for the Los Angeles Dodgers, Ron also played for the Chicago Cubs and Oakland Athletics. He was a six-time All-Star, had over 300 career home runs, was World Series Champ and Word Series MVP. Cey at third base, Bill Russel at shortstop, Davey Lopes at second base and Steve Garvey at first base lasted for nearly nine seasons for the Los Angeles Dodgers. This remarkable feat is a celebrated piece of baseball history that hasn’t been matched since and may never be again. Throughout Ron’s journey from dreaming to doing there were many lessons learned and many interesting encounters along the way. From growing up as boy chasing a dream and the struggles that go along with that to making it to the big leagues and playing under legends like Tommy Lasorda, Ron has an incredible story to tell. In this episode, hear Ron in a memorable conversation with host Greg Frigoletto, as they discuss the story of the little boy from Tacoma who became the author, podcaster and celebrity that he is today. Check out Ron’s podcast, the Ron Cey Show as well as his book, an autobiography titled Penguin Power…a book about Dodger Blue, Hollywood Lights and Ron’s One-In-A-Million Big League Journey. Ron currently lives in in Woodland Hills, CA with his wife Fran. They were married in 1971 and have two children, Daniel and Amanda.

His portfolio spans ownership of the Minnesota Timberwolves and Lynx, more than $2 billion invested in multifamily and other real estate, and over 60 venture investments in technology, fitness, media, and consumer brands.In this episode, Rodriguez explains how his interest in investing began at a young age, shaped by both his upbringing and the hard data he studied about professional baseball careers. Growing up in a single-parent household, he watched his mother juggle two jobs to make ends meet, which instilled in him both a fear of financial insecurity and a drive to build long-term stability. He breaks down how he approaches each asset class, from viewing team ownership as a long-duration, low-leverage asset, to focusing on levered cash flows in real estate, to applying his “VCP” filter, Vision, Capital, People, for venture investments. He also shares the story of setting the then-record $252 million contract with the Texas Rangers in 2001 and how Warren Buffett personally insured the final years of that deal.Finally he  talks about the importance of investing early and often, lessons he instilled in his daughters when they were in elementary school, and why it's so important to invest early and often.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, FCAH, RBHT (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) speaks to Jeff about the need to reimagine policing in the 21st Century, emphasizing the importance of incorporating community input and addressing societal expectations. He highlights the critical failure of law enforcement in managing the narrative post-incidents, which erodes public trust. Weninger notes that 36% of officer-involved shootings involve individuals in mental health crises, and stresses the need for better training and de-escalation tactics. He advocates for hiring practices that prioritize education and empathy, and suggests incorporating civilian experts to improve law enforcement's effectiveness and public perception. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/jeff-wenninger     Highlights from today's episode include: Jeff advocats for reimagining policing by prioritizing transparency, community involvement, and honest conversations about law enforcement's role and culture. Jeff recommends adopting hiring and training practices similar to Nordic countries, emphasizing empathy, critical thinking, and multi-year training to reduce use-of-force incidents. Manon drew a parallel between the challenges in law enforcement and medicine, stressing the importance of maintaining the heart and soul of a profession despite institutional pressures.   ABOUT JEFF WENNINGER: Jeff Wenninger is a nationally recognized expert in law enforcement as a retired Lieutenant with over 33 years of experience primarily with the LAPD. As the Founder & CEO of Law Enforcement Consultants, LLC, Jeff draws from his vast experience in the investigation and adjudication of police use of force incidents, crowd management and control, school and campus safety, and the development of police management best practices. His work focuses on aligning police methods with societal expectations and improving public trust by administering comprehensive evaluations and recommendations to police departments, municipalities, and universities aimed at enhancing police training, reducing liability, improving safety, and fostering better community efficacy. Jeff is a recognized court use of force expert with experience testifying in criminal and civil cases as well as administrative hearings. Having worked the LAPD elite Metropolitan Division, Jeff obtained extensive experience working with the Secret Service and U.S. State Department in coordinating dignitary protection details for the President, Vice President, First Lady, and any Head of State visiting Los Angeles. With this experience, he later oversaw the security of some prominent entertainers, and the venue security of a Major League Baseball team. Despite challenges in his youth to overcome dyslexia and a speech impediment, Jeff excelled athletically and academically, earning a college scholarship for ice hockey and obtaining degrees in sociology, psychology and criminal justice. Jeff recognizes the historical value of traditional policing, but also appreciates the empirical evidence which supports that equally, if not more importantly, how research data can significantly impact the future of law enforcement. He built a distinguished career in law enforcement, beginning with receiving the Certificate of Merit for having the highest level of achievement of overall performance while in the academy & i.e. academics, physical fitness, firearms proficiency, and leadership. Throughout his career, Jeff was selected for coveted positions that included working in the elite LAPD Metropolitan Division, supervising the Rampart Gang Enforcement Detail, and managing police lethal force investigations used in evaluating potential criminal culpability on the part of the involved officers and the department adjudication of the police actions. Jeff's contributions to law enforcement have been recognized with prestigious awards, including the LAPD Medal of Valor, Police Star, and Meritorious Unit Citation. His dedication to excellence is also reflected in his athletic achievements, having served as the captain of the LAPD hockey team and winning multiple medals in police sports competitions at national and international levels. Jeff's insights and experiences have informed his forthcoming book, which proposes actionable solutions for improving law enforcement practices. Adopted and raised in a diverse and civic-minded family, Jeff's commitment to community service extends beyond his professional life. He has been involved in numerous community initiatives, including animal welfare and charitable projects, school safety programs, serving on numerous boards, and volunteering as a school crossing guard. Jeff is a regular contributor to NPR and a law enforcement print media guest columnist, which has spurred international attention. Jeff currently lives in Ohio with his son.
