Here's a sobering statistic:    Over 50% of businesses that get ransomware close up shop in two years.   That is a significant number.    And yet, cybersecurity continues to be something often overlooked by small to medium-sized business owners. It's considered to be a problem for big corporations, like Goldman Sachs or Citigroup, not the Mom & Pop Tire shop on Main Street. But the unfortunate truth is that cyber hacking has evolved into a sort of business of itself - and for that reason, smaller companies are finding themselves the targets with more and more frequency over the last several  years.    Sounds like it's time to beef up your cybersecurity, no? That's exactly what Scott McCrady, CEO of SolCyber, discusses in today's episode. His company is revolutionizing the cybersecurity business for small to medium-sized businesses that lack the manpower, resources, and know-how to handle it on their own. With a “security subscription model,” you pay a monthly fee and get a team of dedicated, talented professionals who manage and respond to your security needs.    If you're someone who “doesn't think it can happen to them,” think again. As the world continues to digitize, the threats will continue to grow. It's like Luigi asked, why isn't EVERY small and medium-sized business in America tapping into this resource? What You'll Learn: Why he left the corporate world to become an entrepreneur What he loves about working for a smaller company (hint: culture & innovation!) The three primary checkpoints you should take to reduce the risk of cyber threats The onboarding process for new clients How they can assist businesses in obtaining cyber insurance How their program has helped their clients score big contracts with their own customers …and much more! Favorite Quote: “You have to have the plan, you have to have the tools, and you have to have the people to do it.” Connect with Scott: www.Solcyber.com Scott@solcyber.com    How To Get Involved: Matthew Meehan and Luigi Rosabianca use their combined experience to provide insight and strategic advice to help small and medium-sized businesses in America have the same opportunities as corporate 500 companies.

Vern's in Charleston, SC represents the culmination of Daniel and Bethany Henize's years of experience. They have worked in lauded restaurants around the country, including the now-closed Charleston institution McCrady's, as well as Animal, Jon & Vinny's, and Gjusta in Los Angeles. Located in a quaint corner building from the 1880s and named after Daniel's grandfather, the menu emphasizes of-the-moment seasonal ingredients and shareable plates. The wine program focuses on small producers with organic and biodynamic practices, and glasses clink all evening in a dining room that feels like a relaxed dinner party at a chef's residence more than one of the hottest restaurants to open in the city in the last five years. The love that this couple has for an industry that has been through the wringer recently is evident, and their commitment to excellence already at Vern's provides hope that the art of dining out and dining well has staying power.

We are in for a treat for today's episode. Scott McCrady, CEO of SolCyber Managed Security Services, joins me today to talk about his incredible story about how he went from being an engineer to switching careers and working his way up in the cybersecurity sales space.When he left his engineer job to pursue his passion of working in sales, he started his new career with Symantec. While he was there for an entire decade, he was able to bring businesses from zero to helping them create a solid foundation in their Asia Pacific in Japan and Sydney businesses. Because of his incredible work, he got asked to come back and run the whole business which at the time, was one of the largest MSSP in the world, with 450 to 500 employees, and six security operations centers around the world.Later in his career he decided to go somewhere smaller and helped build out FireEye's MSSP program, both for sales outbound, but also to work with partners and channels.With years of experience in MSSP, Scott is sharing what he feels like his biggest learnings were, what could be different and what he took from it to make SolCyber Managed Security Services the best in the industry. Tune into today's episode where we expand more on Scott's thoughts on how to cut through the noise in a world where everybody can call themselves an MSSP and rise above it by really delivering results and building your reputation.If you are a sales leader at a startup, or you're in the sales team, and you're searching for your repeatable scalable sales process to grow sales faster, then please get in touch with me at andrew@unstoppable.do or you can also go to my site at www.unstoppable.do. Sign up for our newsletter (https://www.salesbluebird.com)We want your questions and topic suggestions for future episodes.  Send them to  andrew@unstoppable.do or send us a voice/video at https://zipmessage.com/unstoppableMake sure to get in touch with Scott on LinkedIn to get connected: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottmccrady/Support the show

Fancy dining isn't all fluff. At Wild Common in Charleston, SC, Orlando Pagán puts his culinary passion on the plate with every service. He left Puerto Rico after high school to attend Johnson & Wales in Miami, and following graduation, spent three years at the Ritz-Carlton Coconut Grove. In San Francisco, he cooked in a handful of acclaimed restaurants before leading the kitchen of Michelin-starred The Village Pub as executive chef. In 2017 Pagán relocated to the Lowcountry of South Carolina to join Sean Brock at McCrady's Tavern, and in 2019, he helped open Wild Common, where he leads the culinary program as executive chef and was recently nominated for James Beard Best Chef: South. In the midst of this illustrious career, he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, but his careful management of the disease and focus on team and family keep him strong in the job.

This week we're joined by former MLB umpire, Kyle McCrady. McCrady gives us his thoughts on the electronic strike zone, some of his best ejection stories, and what it takes to become a Major League umpire. Media Relations Manager, Colin Connolly hosts.

This episode is the second half of my conversation with Matthew McCrady, the Director of Operations at Man O' War Golf in Lexington, Kentucky. We pick up where we left off, discussing the present and future states of merchandising and golf equipment for golfers and meander towards how Matthew sees the dynamic between grass roots junior golf on public courses and exposure to more aspirational courses as children grow into the game.

This episode is the first half of my conversation with Matthew McCrady, the Director of Operations at my home practice and fitting facility, Man O' War Golf in Lexington, Kentucky. We talk all around and thru the state of the golf business, as I try to touch on what makes this stand alone practice facility so special.

As the bells in the Peace Tower get set to fall silent for five years of renovations, we talk to Dominion Carillonneur Dr. Andrea McCrady about how she came to provide the soundtrack of the nation's capital.

Persistent alcohol use can, at times, interfere with intimate relationships and create conflict. The dynamic of the couple can be a source of tension and may create a loop that can perpetuate alcohol use. However, intimate couples relationships can also be great supports in the recovery from alcohol use disorder. Dr. Barbara McCrady talks about decades of research and development of Alcohol Behavioral Couples Therapy (ABCT), which attempts to target changes in alcohol use by bolstering the couples relationship and using the partner to help work toward behavior change. Dr. Barbara McCrady Professor Emerita of Psychology and the Center on Alcohol, Substance Use, and Addictions (CASAA) at the University of New Mexico. Here she is pictured with her beloved horse, Skylark.

Longview, Washington resident Melinda McCrady spent 20 years working for Democrats in the state Legislature, and for that entire time, her blue-collar, timber-industry hometown elected Democratic representatives to the Legislature, to local office, even to Congress. But by 2016 Democrats were losing ground there, and certainly they lost big in 2021. Republicans now represent Longview, and not necessarily moderate Republicans, either. What happened to the generations of smaller-town working people who supported Democrats? Melinda and I talk about what issues cost Democrats seats, generational change, who makes up the elite and all the rest.  

Ben Norton has been in Nashville for two months. Fresh off a move from Charleston to helm the kitchen at Husk. Ben says the transition has been easy as he loves the city and already had friends here. Not surprising to anyone, the culinary community has welcomed the former Chef at McCrady's. Ben grew up in Atlanta, where he learned to cook with Southern ingredients, which is what you will get to enjoy in a meal at Husk. Listen in for all the stories in between, and what advice he would give a young Chef right now.

This is Episode Four of the Courage My Friends podcast: From epidemic to pandemic: rethinking health.  We discuss how people are coping in the pandemic and the ways populations are impacted differently. Where is the most vulnerability? The discussion highlights the realities for those in poverty, particularly the under-housed. Together we discuss how Indigenous teachings and harm reduction practices can inform our responses to these current crises and help us to move forward in a compassionate way that does not leave people behind. Today's guest host John Caffery is joined by two guests -- Zoë Dodd, community scholar at the University Health Network and harm reduction activist, and Keith McCrady, who has worked with Indigenous children and youth for over 25 years. He is now the executive director of 2-Spirited People of the 1st Nations, an organization that focuses on prevention, education and support for 2-Spirit, including First Nations, Metis and Inuit people living with or at risk for HIV and related co-infections in the Greater Toronto Area. The organization bases its work on Indigenous philosophies of holistic health and wellness. Recent studies have shown that people are struggling to cope; rates of suicide, eating disorders, domestic violence, and substance use have all significantly increased since the pandemic began. Ontario has been in an opioid crisis for a decade and the pandemic served to exacerbate the situation with overdose deaths increasing by 76 per cent according to the report Changing Circumstances Surrounding Opioid-Related Deaths in Ontario during the COVID-19 Pandemic. In discussing the social determinants of health, Dodd expressed the need to see people as whole beings.  "The pandemic has shown us we have so much grave inequality with the impacts of colonization, racism, poverty, some of the biggest social determinants of health have been around housing and income and the massive inequality in so many ways causing people to die," she said. As the conversation shifts to discussing the environmental conditions in Canada and the boil water advisories in Ontario, McCrady noted that the lack of access to drinking water on Indigenous reserves is "pure evil." "If this was any other community, I think it would be solved long ago, the people in power are failing us and adding to the problem…to even feel that you are worthy of water…we need to focus on the areas that we are failing, including Indigenous people, we need to service families as a whole." The episode is a tender, powerful, and thought provoking discussion amongst people who have worked on the frontlines for years and who share their insights of how to care for one another and create a more humane and just world for us all to live in. About today's guests: Zoë Dodd is a long-time harm reduction worker and advocate for drug user health and liberation living and working in Tkaronto/Toronto. She spent 15 years co-facilitating Hepatitis C support groups that are rooted in popular education and harm reduction. She was instrumental in developing a community-based model of Hep C care that prioritizes people who use drugs. She is a vocal critic of government responses to the overdose crisis; an expert in overdose response, she helped to establish Ontario's first overdose prevention site, Moss Park OPS which ran illegally in a park for a year before receiving government funding. Zoë is a co-founder and co-organizer with the Toronto Overdose Prevention Society. She is currently working as a community scholar with MAP centre for Urban Health Solutions focused on the harms of involuntary drug treatment. She is an abolitionist, anti-capitalist and is strongly committed to dismantling the drug war. Keith McCrady grew up in the community of Biinjitiwaabik Zaaging Anishinaabek, and relocated to the GTA over 13 years ago and now calls Scarborough home. Keith, the proud father of four has dedicated his life to supporting the goals and dreams of Indigenous communities, particularly in Toronto. Initially, he focused on children and youth programs, and eventually expanded into Indigenous education, employment, human trafficking, physical literacy and housing. Keith McCrady's advocacy and leadership also come with his identity as a two-spirited person. “It's not just a sexual orientation or a gender identity,” he says. “It's also my role in my community and a place in our circle.” As the executive director of 2-Spirited People of the 1st Nations, Keith's goal is to walk alongside the 2SLGBTQ communities and provide education and support to members of the 2-Spirit community and reclaim our place in the Circle.

Chris Amendola of Foraged Eatery is the mind behind an incredible restaurant. Think ramps, mushrooms, and wineberries. Add a farm, the Eastern Shore and a small 28 seat restaurant you have Foraged, a hyper-seasonal restaurant. The interior is so inviting: gorgeous brick wall with a mini edible flower wall. Chef Chris has seriously unique experiences. Sean Brock at McCrady's Restaurant. Stages at Mini Bar in DC and Eleven Madison Park in NYC. Then a chance encounter with Dan Barbers that led to a new job at Blue Hill. Yes, THE Blue Hill at Stone Barns. So it's no wonder that while he cares about sustainability, what happens at Foraged is so much more than that--seasonal ingredients that each of the 52 weeks provides.  Don't forget all the wooded areas that can be harvested sustainably a few miles of the restaurant.  After our recording he headed out to pick fiddleheads. How will he serve them? That's the joy of creativity.  Dave Seel and Chris Amendola have a fun memory lane conversation which our community will thoroughly enjoy. Look out on social media for some fun photos and more.  Now for a shameless plug asking you to dine at Foraged Eatery.  If you are a local listener and have not yet been, go!  The mission is incredible, and he is so highly respected among chefs and owners. Find out for yourself why! Until you are able to get there, follow the wonderful journeys Chef Chris takes us on Instagram.

"What I usually do, I’ll order a lot of seasonal ingredients and I'll just order them without any dish in mind. And we just get them in, just so we can start that creative process and I know that I'm not going to waste an ingredient. Because you know we're not going to throw anything away, so it kind of forces our hand to use it and that's we try and stay creative. And I go into farmer's markets every single weekend. And as far as steaks go, it's very straightforward. One of the things we learned that when people come here, they want to eat steak What we covered in this episode Chef Drew Adams grew up in Baltimore. First food memory was getting soft shells out of the bay in front of his house with his dad and cooking him upHe went to culinary school at Johnson Wales and in Charleston.His second food memory was after work in Charleston running over to McCrady's where Sean Brock used to be (before Sean) and he go sit at the bar and get the tasting menu.Chef Jeremiah Langhorne at The Dabney has been one of his mentor.Holding yourself accountable and if you're not happy with it then fix it! Chef Damon Gordon was another of his mentor. He taught me a lot about precision.At the Bourbon Steakhouse, he leverage his creativity in the fish dishes and the appetizers.To shake up the menu at the restaurant, Chef Drew Adams  cut the menu in half as far as steaks go within the first month.He developed the Wagyu program at the restaurant.

Really enjoy that part of it. Obviously you want to do everything you can to make sure you really showcase the product. Especially when you find it outside and you find it yourself. That's incredible. The more I learned about it, the more I never realized how much edible things were out there. I find something new each year and nature very fascinating to me.It's like when you're younger, everyone wants to be that kid on the block who has that new toy. I want to be that kid! I like to use things that not many other people use. But there are very few people that use pawpaws in the city. And come spring, everyone uses ramps in the city but there's other things out there like ground nettles ...

I like lime, I like salt, and so I always thought that I liked tequila. I’d order those along with my neat shot on occasion, usually when I could hear waves lapping against some shore and seagulls in the distance, but I’d never really explored the whole genre much more than that. Until I met Germán Gonzalez one afternoon at a tasting on what was then the private dining space at McCrady’s restaurant in Charleston, SC. His T1 and Tears of Llorona tequila was served neat and trust me, it didn’t need to be accompanied by anything, not even ice. When it was time to visit San Antonio, I requested a quiet afternoon chat with Germán almost immediately. And when he, one of the best tequila makers in the world agreed, I knew that I was forging ahead, even though all I remember of Spanish class was my teacher’s Southern accent when she said, “ro-ho.” Germán , always a gentleman, forgave my stumbling pronunciation since it came with great enthusiasm.

On today's episode of THE FOOD SEEN, we share the tradition of Southern storytelling with Sean Brock, chef of McCrady's, Husk,Minero, in Charleston SC and Nashville TN. The son of a coal mining family in rural Wise County, Virginia, Sean never forgot his Appalachian upbringing while finding himself in the Lowcountry. It all started over a simple bowl of Hoppin' John, and continued itself with a side of cornbread. These dishes are emblematic, not only in the South, put as far as West Africa for the Gullah people. To understand his roots better, Sean researched and traveled, in hopes of reviving ingredients, preserving said tradition, through seed saving, and working with Anson Mills and their Carolina gold rice. Sean celebrates this journey in his debut cookbook, HERITAGE, fittingly holding a handful of heirloom beans on the cover. Of course there's BBQ, the smell of smoke, and a sip of whiskey or two, but it's really about his manifesto, and finding yourself through cooking. Then the food has much meaning far deeper than fried chicken. This program was brought to you by Edwards VA Ham. photo by Andrea Behrends “I'm a very obsessive person. When I get excited about something I take it way too far.” [13:00] “The most important thing we can do is raise awareness. As chefs we have an incredibly opportunity to do that with a plate of food.” [16:00] “There's way more bad BBQ than there is good BBQ and it didn't used to be that way.” [20:00] “These days, we're able to cook strange species of seafood and people trust us now. as chefs it kind of came out of necessity – we were overfishing. 25:00 –Sean Brock on The Food Seen

Tune in to this week’s episode of Chef’s Story as Dorothy Cann Hamilton chats with Sean Brock again, this time to celebrate the release of his book, Heritage. Sean is the chef behind the game-changing restaurants Husk and McCrady’s, and his first book offers all of his inspired recipes. With a drive to preserve the heritage foods of the South, Brock cooks dishes that are ingredient-driven and reinterpret the flavors of his youth in Appalachia and his adopted hometown of Charleston. The recipes in Heritage include all the comfort food (think food to eat at home) and high-end restaurant food (fancier dishes when there’s more time to cook) for which he has become so well-known. Brock’s interpretation of Southern favorites like Pickled Shrimp, Hoppin’ John, and Chocolate Alabama Stack Cake sit alongside recipes for Crispy Pig Ear Lettuce Wraps, Slow-Cooked Pork Shoulder with Tomato Gravy, and Baked Sea Island Red Peas. This is a very personal book, with headnotes that explain Brock’s background and give context to his food and essays in which he shares his admiration for the purveyors and ingredients he cherishes. This program was brought to you by Whole Foods Market. “The cuisine of the south is dictated by the terroir and geography. The south is insanely diverse.” [04:00] “The history of Charleston cooking is amazing. if you look back you can see cuisine dating back to the 17th century. when you have that information to access – it’s amazing.” [12:00] –Sean Brock on Chef’s Story

Sean Brock is the executive chef of Husk, based in Charleston, South Carolina, with a new location also opening in Nashville, Tennessee. Born and raised in rural Virginia, the experience of growing his own food with his family sparked his interest in becoming a chef. Growing and cooking everything he ate, Brock explains that he really saw food in its true form. Beginning his career as a chef tournant under Chef Robert Carter, Brock quickly rose up the ranks to become an executive sous chef at Lemaire Restaurant in Richmond, VA, then an executive chef at the AAA Five-Diamond Hermitage Hotel in Nashville, TN, an executive chef at McCrady’s Restaurant, and finally his second restaurant with Husk, just down the street from McCrady’s. His appearances include being on the “Next Great Chef” episode of “Food Network Challenge,” (in which he was the winner), and battling it out on “Iron Chef America” in December 2010. Learn from the award winning chef himself about what it really means to be a chef, such as learning to make your own seasonings like vinegar and salt, and utilizing them in your own dishes.
