In this week's episode, our host Jonathan Aymin sits down with Matthew and Kevyn Harvey, the owners of Benediction on the Square, a wedding venue in Leonard, Texas. They discuss the challenges of rehabilitating an older building and their focus on attracting clients from nearby growing towns. They also express their passion for their community and their hope to bring more businesses to the downtown square. Matthew gives a tour of the venue, and they discuss their operations team, marketing strategy, and plans for the future. The interview highlights the unique challenges and opportunities of running a wedding venue in a small town and the importance of community involvement and personal connections with clients. About Our Guests:  Kevyn & Matthew are Fannin Co. locals who have a love for their community and the town of Leonard. They are excited to bring a new gathering place to North Texas, where people can come together to celebrate life's happy moments.  Their historic building dates back to the early 1930's - Built during the Great Depression, it has played host to several mom and pop businesses throughout the decades. It has been home to a family owned and operated grocery, a barbecue dive, and rumor has it, a secret bootlegger or two.  The Leonard Square has always been a laid back social hub for the small town and in the late 1980's, the lot next door became known as Cowboy Corner. The lot earned its nickname from the group of local cowboys who would park their pickups there on any given night and socialize. For the last 30 years or so, the building has been storing antiques, waiting patiently to become a bustling gathering place once again. Benediction on the Square has been carefully and intentionally remodeled; the renovations highlight its historic charm while making it the perfect space for weddings and special events.   Venue Info:  Address: 105 W Fannin St, Leonard, TX 75452 Tel: (903) 453-4904 Website: Www.BenedictionOnTheSquare.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/benedictionots/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/benedictionots

A 10-year-old girl from Honduras arrived at the southern border unaccompanied by adults. She told Sheena Rodriguez that she hoped to stay in America, and wanted to “color and get to know my father.” The Honduras girl is like so many other unaccompanied alien children, says Rodriguez, founder and president of Alliance for a Safe Texas.These kids arrive at the border with “pieces of paper with handwritten numbers on it," she says, "and these children are going to people that they have never even spoken to."About 85,000 migrant children have entered the U.S. and been placed with a sponsor, but the federal U.S. government now doesn't know the children's location or status. Through her work at Alliance for a Safe Texas, Rodriguez seeks to raise awareness about how the border crisis has led to the exploitation of children, and to offer solutions to lawmakers who are trying to fix policies that led to the current situation. Rodriguez's desire to find out what was really going on at the southern border began about three years ago. She says she needed to see the situation for herself, so she planned a trip. Rodriguez left her home in North Texas and arrived around midnight in Laredo, about 160 miles south of San Antonio on the Mexican border. “We encountered about 60 different men, all young men, to the one Border Patrol agent,” Rodriguez says, adding: “And he looked at me, didn't know me from anywhere, and said, ‘I need help. We're being invaded.'"At that moment, Rodriguez says she committed to doing something to address the border crisis. Since that first trip, Rodriguez says, she has taken nearly three dozen trips to the border and spoken with many illegal aliens, including unaccompanied migrant children. Rodriguez joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to share stories of these unaccompanied children and explain what we know about how minors are arriving alone at the border. Enjoy the show!

On today's episode, Dennis speaks with former LEO and elected Judge, Eric Starnes & SCT case law instructor, Zach Miller. Eric Starnes is a conservative Republican, former law enforcement officer, and experienced prosecutor running. He is now the elected Judge of Tarrant County Criminal Court No. 7. A lifelong Texan, Starnes earned his Masters of Public Administration from the University of North Texas and his Juris Doctorate at Texas Wesleyan University. His roots in Tarrant County run deep, having served to keep his community safe for nearly three decades within the criminal justice system—both on the street and in the courts. Spending time on both sides of law enforcement has afforded Starnes a valuable perspective on justice… one that isn't learned in law school alone. During his more than 23 years of service with the Euless Police Department, he worked his way up from a patrol officer to Lieutenant of Investigations. In that capacity he oversaw the coordination of all criminal investigations, while managing a $1.6 million budget and a staff of eighteen. While in this position he testified in criminal trials on multiple occasions—providing him an experience that a vast majority of criminal lawyers do not have. This insight has served Starnes well in both his current role as a Tarrant County Assistant Criminal District Attorney, where he has worked exclusively for the last four years within the Criminal Division on both felony and misdemeanor cases. In addition to his years in private law practice, his dedication to jurisprudence has further led to his becoming both a published writer and a professor, educating students on the laws that surround the basis of the Fourth Amendment's search and seizure clause—a subject vital to the criminal court system. Experienced, Knowledgeable, Fair-minded… Eric Starnes understands the difference between being an “active” judge and an “activist” judge. He seeks to efficiently move cases through the court system—protecting taxpayer dollars and ensuring the professional and just treatment of all who enter his courtroom. Today, Dennis, Eric and Zach discuss Eric's background and career and clarify 4th Amendment case law, specifically seeking consent to search when you have PC.

And, while North Texas has developed considerably over the past 85 years, we've never forgotten our roots. CoServ is a fixture at North Texas livestock shows, not only forming relationships with FFA students but supporting them by bidding on their animals. Over the course of the year, CoServ sponsors four separate events, including Denton County, Cooke County, and Collin County. Additionally, CoServ Gas supports the Wylie livestock show.So, to spotlight the co-op's tremendous work with the Future Farmers of America program, I decided to head out to the Denton County Jr. Livestock Show and Sale and learn all that I could.

This week, Erica's chatting with Amy Gaston: a dynamic, vision-driven leader passionate about creating best-in-class brand experiences, previously Director of Experiential Marketing at Magnolia in Waco, TX. In this episode, you'll walk away with Amy's top tips for planning excellent experiential events for brands of any size and her lessons learned in thoughtful leadership throughout her career. Here's a peek at what we cover in this episode: [00:02:50] - Amy walks us through her early career experience as a teacher and coach, going to graduate school for sports management, working in the athletic marketing department at University of North Texas on game day promotion and tailgating experience, then shifting to Magnolia - first as an executive assistant to Joanna Gaines and then moving into the role of Director of Experiential Marketing. [00:08:16] - How the team at Magnolia makes every single encounter matter to their guests by paying attention to every detail and truly valuing the investment that customers are making in supporting the brand. [00:12:10] - Amy shares some of her favorite projects from her time at Magnolia, like their annual Spring at the Silos and Silobration events. She chats through the logistics that go into each event and the team that makes them possible, and explains why events can be so important for your brand. [00:20:30] - Amy uncovers her top 3 tips for experiential marketers: understanding who your audience is/what they are coming to your brand to solve, identifying what your brand's goals are for the specific event or experience (brand affinity vs revenue generating), and experiencing a variety of industry events to make note of the mindful elements that made them special and evaluate whether your brand can replicate a similar experience.

McGillivray oversaw the course throughout the race earlier in the day, taking runners across the starting line and helping to ensure their safe arrival on Boylston Street. This is McGillivray's 51st consecutive completion of the Boston Marathon and the 36th of which he has completed at night after seeing to his race day duties.   “It doesn't feel so long ago that I was 18 years old, sitting on the curb at mile 21, wondering if I would ever get a chance to finish the Boston Marathon. If I could go back and tell my younger self that he goes on to finish that day and 50 more editions, I can't imagine his reaction,” said McGillivray. “I'm grateful for the more than a dozen friends and colleagues who joined me on the journey to the finish line today. I had to dream big to get to this moment, and I couldn't do it without my community and my family that support me every step of the way.”   The weekend featured two other special moments for McGillivray. On Saturday, Team With A Vision inducted McGillivray into their hall of fame during a dinner at the Westin Copley Place. Team With A Vision pairs blind and sighted runners together to complete endurance races across the country. Their efforts support the Massachusetts Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired, which delivers professional, peer, and volunteer support to over 1,200 individuals each year, giving them the support they need to live with dignity and independence. All funds raised support MABVI's statewide vision rehabilitation services, including 34 low-vision support groups, Assistive Technology and Training Centers, and 400 volunteers matched 1:1 with blind individuals.   In addition, McGillivray was a featured speaker during the Boston Marathon Expo, where World Marathon Challenge champion Becca Pizzi interviewed him about his long history with the race. He shared photos, videos and stories with the crowd, and signed copies of his books for attendees at the Dave McGillivray Finish Strong Foundation booth following the presentation.   McGillivray is one of just a handful of runners who have marked half a century or more of completing the world's most famous marathon. Alongside his rich connection to this race, his running resume includes completing the World Marathon Challenge (seven marathons in seven days on seven continents,) nine Ironman Triathlon World Championships, a 1,250-mile run along the U.S. East Coast in 1980 to again benefit the Jimmy Fund, a 24-hour run (120 miles,) a 24-hour bike (385 miles,) and a 24-hour swim (27 miles.) He triathloned around the six New England states by swimming one mile, biking 80 miles and running 20 miles every day for 32 consecutive days. Over the span of his life, he estimates he's run more than 150,000 miles.   For more information on Dave McGillivray, visit www.davemcgillivray.com and follow him on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and Twitter.   ABOUT DAVE MCGILLIVRAY   Running legend Dave McGillivray has increased the self-esteem of millions of people through his work as an entrepreneur, philanthropist, motivational speaker, author, and athlete.

In the Dallas/ Fort Worth market, Apartment sales volume is down 75-80% from just 12 months ago. In smaller markets, volume is probably down 80%+. Yes…interest rates are up, but if you are going to buy commercial real estate, most investors prefer multifamily. Why? 1) Fannie and Freddie are your backstop with financing and can offer longer fixed rate terms 2) rents can reset to the market every 12 months 3) you can change market value by increasing your NOI 4) personal tax advantages. If you are new to multifamily, this could be the time to put together your team (equity, debt, listing brokers, real estate attorney, etc.) for the NEXT cycle.
