Andrew shares how a simple magnetic tag meant to prevent a security mistake failed, not because the idea was bad, but because the process wasn't complete. From there, Andrew and Jay explore Kanban systems, physical signals, mistake-proofing, and why the best systems don't rely on memory.Along the way, Andrew and Jay trade stories about forgotten garage doors, rusting cast iron, Toyota-inspired fixtures, tool wear, AI, and the difference between hard work and the right work. They reflect on the value of training shoulder-to-shoulder with employees, and why the most effective improvements are often the simplest ones: a tag on a keyring, a fixture that prevents mistakes, or a process that makes the wrong action impossible.Here is the BMW video Jay referenced.And here's the podcast Andrew referenced, Stories are Soul Food.

What do you do when the volume of life's pain, distractions, or sudden storms drowns out the whisper of God's voice? In this powerful mashup episode of the Interviewing Jesus Podcast, host Kristen Wambach brings together a raw, honest look at our deepest human moments with a strategic deep dive into the practical "technology" of faith. Whether you are navigating personal fear, emotional pressure, or feeling stuck at a crossroads of decision, this conversation delivers a safe path for your heart to move out of isolation and straight into the tangible presence of Heaven.Joining Kristen is Pastor Dwayne Luard, founder of Grow Beyond Sunday, an organization dedicated to ending spiritual malnutrition in the body of Christ. Together, they pull back the curtain on why checking a religious box on Sunday leaves so many vulnerable to collapse when inevitable storms hit—and how you can build a resilient, Monday-morning lifestyle of faith instead.In this episode, you'll discover: A Practical Path Through 4 Critical Moments: Immediate, action-oriented steps to take when you are afraid, in pain, met with silence, or don't know what to do next. The Technology of Prayer: Why prayer is an authoritative responsibility to enforce what is already settled in Heaven right here into your earth, rather than a reactionary defense mechanism. Tuning Out the Static: Cultivating an authentic, experiential intimacy that allows you to recognize the Father's voice clearly, even in the middle of a noisy crowd. The Power Couple Dynamic: An inside look at balancing execution, vision, and humility within marriage roles to honor each other's spiritual strengths without comparison or burden. Removing the Blocks: A direct invitation to do the vital "heart work"—including letting go of hidden offenses and unforgiveness—to open up the windows of your spiritual senses for a fresh immersion of the Holy Spirit. Stop settling for a form of godliness that lacks power. Tune in to receive an activation of your unique spiritual gifts, step off the boat of complacency, and start walking in the supernatural confidence of your sonship today.

Food is THE Prime Connector in life. Food is where death becomes new life, where the alchemy of relationship transforms sunlight, water and earth into a sacred substance: FOOD. And, to cook using whole ingredients is to participate in a huge chain of becoming. Food is so much more than mere consumption. It is a source of daily communion. Blessings

When you think about the Black American experience, soul food is interwoven throughout its fabric. It carries stories and traditions across generations, and marks memories shared with people you love. And through the years, its definition has evolved and even been misunderstood by those who don’t understand its significance. Today, we’re unpacking all of that with Sierra Reece. Sierra is a culinary creator and entrepreneur focused on Black American foodways, soul food, and African diaspora cuisine. We talked about what soul food really means, how she balances tradition with experimentation, and why food can be such a powerful tool for preserving culture and identity.

This special Mother's Day Mash Up episode brings together the most powerful moments of resilience, legacy, and divine identity from our journey together. Host Kristen Wambach curates a "Spiritually BRAVE" collection designed to bridge the gap between the practical grit of parenting and the supernatural wisdom available to every mother. Featuring a deep dive with Gail Showalter and mystical reflections on generational healing, this episode is a "Monday-morning" anchor for any woman leading her family toward a heavenly horizon.Episode Highlights The Practical Heart (Resilience and Faith): Special guest Gail Showalter shares her transformative journey from a single mother of three to a beacon of wisdom. Discover why asking for help is a sign of strength and how to navigate the "poverty of striving" through prayer and practical gumption. The Redemptive Mother: Kristen explores the "Beyond" posture of motherhood—moving from a place of surviving to thriving. Learn how to conduct a "relationship autopsy" to find healing and set healthy boundaries for your family's future. Rewriting the Family Tree: A look into the transformative power of generational healing. Kristen shares the divine story of "Amelia" (Also shared in her new book HOW GOOD IS GOD!), a 42-generation encounter that illustrates how the Lord can dissolve ancient burdens and restore the "blessing of the work of your hands." The Identity Anchor: Stop defining yourself by natural lineage or performance. This highlight focuses on your "original Genesis"—the truth that you are the most remarkable idea God has ever conceived and are "VALUE able" beyond measure. A "Safe Path" for the Heart: The episode concludes with a collective prayer and a reminder that your value is a "horizon of promise." Whether you are a mother, a grandmother, or a spiritual mentor, you have the authority to change the atmosphere of your home.

What happens when your confidence wanes, and the "sweet gifts" of connection start to turn sour? In this special mashup episode of the Interviewing Jesus Podcast, Kristen Wambach merges two dynamic conversations on the anatomy of trust—both our vertical trust in a "gooder" God and our horizontal navigation of human relationships.Kristen moves from the practical to the mystical, starting with the "Monday-morning" logic of daily habits. Discover why something as simple as making your bed or drinking a glass of water before your coffee builds the self-trust necessary to hear God's voice more clearly. She challenges us to trade the "blame game" for a "detective light," illuminating the paths that lead to trust breaches without losing our peace of mind.Drawing from Proverbs 4:23 and Proverbs 3:5-7, this episode provides a "spiritual investigative journalist" look at: The Beach Ball Effect: Why "sucking it up" blocks the Holy Spirit and how to let your emotions float to the surface for healing. Level 10 Access: Understanding that high-level relational access requires high-level accountability and the courage to set non-negotiable boundaries. The "Gooder" Bandwidth: Why God's goodness is always greater than our current ability to comprehend it. Relying on God's Faith: A paradigm shift from "muscling up" your own faith to resting in the faith Jesus already has in your resurrected identity. Whether you are navigating a stormy sea of a trust breach or standing at the edge of an unknown future, this episode is a compass for your heart. It's time to hoist your sails, shield your heart, and embark on a voyage toward a restorative, "spiritually brave" lifestyle.

Koji Kanematsu, the founder of Onigilly Japanese Kitchen, who shares his nearly 20-year journey of introducing Japanese rice balls to the American market. Transitioning from a background in tech startups, Koji applied a systems-oriented approach to transform a 2008 street cart into a growing franchise brand. The conversation covers his early challenges securing funding as an immigrant, the strategic pivot from urban business districts to suburban shopping centers during the pandemic, and his "Panda Express" vision for making onigiri a mainstream, healthy fast-food staple. Koji emphasizes the importance of balancing data-driven tools with human instinct and selecting franchisees who are driven by a passion for the product rather than just financial gain.10 Key Takeaways Identify a Market Gap: Koji founded the business after realizing he couldn't find the healthy, quick, and affordable lunches he enjoyed in Japan while working in San Francisco. Systems-Driven Scaling: Influenced by his tech background, Koji aimed to create a scalable system similar to Subway or McDonald's from the very beginning. Utilize NPO Funding: As an immigrant with no US credit history, Koji secured early funding through NPO lenders like La Cocina, which prioritized his vision and passion over traditional metrics. Operational Efficiency: The brand uses a centralized manufacturing model (commissary kitchens and co-packers) so individual locations only need to cook rice, simplifying the labor and skill requirements. The Power of Education: Success required teaching American consumers that onigiri is a cooked, handheld "soul food" distinct from raw-fish sushi. Adaptability in Crisis: When COVID-19 emptied the financial districts where his shops were located, Koji pivoted his growth strategy toward suburban shopping centers. Franchisee Selection Criteria: Koji prioritizes "detail-oriented" and "passionate" candidates—often former customers—over multi-unit operators who lack a connection to the brand. Human Instinct vs. Big Data: While the company uses AI traffic tools like Placer.ai, Koji personally visits potential sites for several days to verify the "feel" and traffic patterns. The "Slow" Road to Automation: It took 18 years to build the supply chain and automation necessary to support nationwide expansion because manufacturers often refuse to work with small-scale operators. Mission-Driven Growth: Beyond profit, Koji is motivated by the emotional reward of seeing a diverse American customer base embrace Japanese culture through food.

Today, macaroni and cheese is the ultimate comfort food, a staple of weeknight dinners, family gatherings, and Soul Food restaurants. Humble though the dish may seem, its history is filled with surprising twists and turns. Renaissance cardinals and popes dined on elaborate pasta-and-cheese concoctions laced with costly spices. In the eighteenth century, wealthy young Englishmen made macaroni a symbol of continental sophistication. Black women, whose contribution has long been overshadowed, played a crucial role in establishing the dish as an American tradition from the nation's founding through the Civil Rights Movement. The Epic History of Macaroni and Cheese: From Ancient Rome to Modern America (Columbia UP, 2026) by Dr. Karima Moyer-Nocchi is a delectable history of macaroni and cheese, tracing an extraordinary journey of cultural exchange and social change. Karima Moyer-Nocchi reveals the religious, political, and industrial forces that shaped its evolution alongside stories of the unsung figures who crafted the dish as we know it today: enslaved cooks who preserved and adapted traditions, immigrant chefs who introduced new variations, and practical homemakers looking to nourish their families with an affordable meal. She emphasizes the adaptability of macaroni and cheese, which in different times has served as both an indulgence on the elite table and sustenance to those struggling to survive, crossing borders, social classes, and cultural divides. Deeply researched and rich with enticing details, this book uncovers the creativity and resilience that brought a beloved food to our tables. The Epic History of Macaroni and Cheese also shares centuries of recipes—from ancient Roman authors to celebrity chefs, reworked for modern kitchens—that provide a hands-on way to experience the evolution of this iconic dish. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

In the eighteenth century, wealthy young Englishmen made macaroni a symbol of continental sophistication. Black women, whose contribution has long been overshadowed, played a crucial role in establishing the dish as an American tradition from the nation's founding through the Civil Rights Movement. The Epic History of Macaroni and Cheese: From Ancient Rome to Modern America (Columbia UP, 2026) by Dr. Karima Moyer-Nocchi is a delectable history of macaroni and cheese, tracing an extraordinary journey of cultural exchange and social change.

Kasey Jernigan (Choctaw) interviewed and observed Choctaw women over a period of years about food and their relationships to it. She documents what she learned in those observations in her new book, “Commod Bods: Embodied Heritage, Foodways and Indigeneity”. The book uses federal food and nutrition assistance as the jumping off point for an exploration of individual perceptions of food and colonial influences on Native health outcomes. A quaint eatery in Arizona's Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community is attracting attention over and above the dozens of other frybread stands that dot reservation roadsides across the country. The Stand was just named one of USA Today's 2026 Restaurants of the Year. It's built by the same person who makes the frybread dough and serves the soup in a decidedly rustic setting. Author, poet, educator and legal scholar Marique B. Moss (Photo: courtesy M. Moss) Marique B. Moss explores her Black and Indigenous identity in her poetic memoir, “Sweetgrass and Soul Food”. She is among the Native people offering support to Minneapolis residents in the wake of the expanded immigration efforts from her space, Mashkiki Studios.
