 Mark talks about founding, failing, funding and exiting companies with the amazing Sacramento entrepreneur, Sonny Mayugba, whose new adventure as VP of Growth at Swimply has him on the company building journey once again. Swimply is the world's first marketplace for homeowners to rent out their underutilized pools to local swimmers. Prior to Swimply, Sonny spent a year in venture capital, first as a Managing Director at Jason Calacanis' LAUNCH and next as an Entrepreneur in Residence at Spero Ventures. A serial entrepreneur, Sonny first got hooked on startups by launching Heckler, a print/digital magazine that he scaled and sold to Times Mirror when he was 25. After that, Sonny went on to start multiple companies, among them Requested, a mobile app for restaurants & bars. Requested eventually merged with restaurant delivery app Waitr, where Sonny was the founding CMO. In charge of customer acquisition, brand identity, and revenue stewardship, Sonny helped grow Waitr Holdings to $800M annual revenue, expanded into 700 cities, and rang the Nasdaq Opening Bell when the company went public as Waitr Holdings (Nasdaq:WTRH) in 2018. If you would like to learn more about Simply or Sonny please check out the links below: https://swimply.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/sonnymayugba If this episode inspires you to be part of the movement, and you believe, like me, that entrepreneurs are the answer to our future, message me so we can join forces to support building truly great companies in our region. - Subscribe to my channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCom_​... - Mark Haney is a serial entrepreneur that has experience growing companies worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

I'm wrestling fan and I'm proud to say it!!! And I had the privilege to talk professional wrestler Brimstone on his career in wrestling, fatherhood, and the impact that Shad Gaspard had on his life... Brimstone is a professional wrestler, actor, author, philanthropist and comic book/animated hero. He has had a successful and rewarding career participating in and administering numerous entertainment careers spanning well over two decades. As the co-founder and CEO of Hound Comics, Inc. Brimstone and his team of creators launched his comic book series, "Brimstone and The Borderhounds" on October 31, 2010 at Borders Books and as of January 11, 2011 went nation and world wide via Barnes & Noble, Book World, and Amazon. Bridging the gap of wrestling star and the corporate world, Brimstone has an extensive background in marketing, advertising, management, and branding. At Newsday, under Times Mirror and the Long Island Voice, he worked in Senior Management. He created and directed one of the largest employment publications in the Tri-State Area, the Employment Journal, with distribution centers in Long Island, NYC, and NJ; and administered LI Career Fairs, Long Island's top career fair company. Looking to train up and coming hopefuls in the art of professional wrestling, Brimstone launched Critical Mass Pro-Wrestling Corp, which was considered one of the biggest and best pro-wrestling training facilities in the North-East. Brimstone has also been a Head Trainer for Pro Wrestling Revolution and a guest trainer for FTW Wrestling and many other training facilities across the country.      Brimstone's career in professional wrestling has spanned over 14 years and he has made countless appearances worldwide for the leaders in sports entertainment and throughout the Independents. As a trainer, he is responsible for an enormous amount of talent including a handful of students who have made their mark in the business on WWE and TNA. Brimstone's hard work and dedication to the industry has garnered high honors, appreciation and the recognition of his peers including a 2008 Award from the Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame. Memorable television credits include Sesame Street, Romper Room, WWF Superstars, The Ricki Lake Show, MTV's Total Request Live and BET's 106 & Park. Since his semi-retirement from the wrestling industry, Brimstone has pursued a career on the silver screen; making cameos and acting in multiple films, music videos and television pilots; and is currently under contract with Dick Clark Productions to produce his own series. Brimstone makes frequent appearances for the military, as well as speaking engagements at elementary schools for the Get-A-Voice Foundation. He donates a large portion of his time to supporting numerous charities and foundations including but not limited to The Arthritis Foundation, Dee Snider's Biker's for Babies, Wrestler's Rescue, Michael J. Fox's Parkinson's Foundation, Ronald McDonald House, Make-A-Wish, and Toys For Tots. He is a celebrity spokesperson for Paul McCartney's RADD (Rockers Actors and Athletes Against Driving Drunk) and was recently asked to be the National Spokesperson for the Jamie Isaacs Foundation For Anti-Bullying.

Spann began his broadcast career in Tuscaloosa in 1973 at WTBC radio.[3] There, in high school, he worked the night shift, while former ABC 33/40 anchor Dave Baird worked mornings. Spann volunteered many hours following the 1974 Alabama tornadoes in Jasper. He began his television career in the summer of 1978 at 33/40 predecessor WCFT in Tuscaloosa, the "33" in 33/40. In fall 1978, Spann moved to WSFA in Montgomery as weekend sports anchor and part-time weatherman. After spending the summer of 1979 as afternoon-drive announcer at Top 40 station WHHY-FM ("Y102") in Montgomery, he was hired at WAPI-TV in Birmingham as chief weatherman, despite having no formal weather education. At the age of 23, he was one of the youngest chief weathermen in the country. Channel 13 was sold to Times Mirror in 1980 and renamed WVTM-TV, and Spann impressed his new bosses enough that they moved him to sister station KDFW in Dallas in 1984. In 1985, he was named the best weathercaster in the Metroplex by the Dallas Press Club, defeating such competition as KXAS-TV's Harold Taft and WFAA-TV's Troy Dungan. After only two years, he returned to Alabama as part owner of a small AM-FM radio station combo in Demopolis with Dave Baird. He returned to television in October 1989 as chief weatherman at Birmingham's WBRC-TV. At the same time, he enrolled in Mississippi State University's meteorology program, earning the NWA and AMS seals of approval upon his graduation. Spann left WBRC in 1996 in a move that made local headlines. WBRC had just been purchased by News Corporation and was dropping its longtime affiliation with ABC in favor of Fox. Spann, a devout Southern Baptist, was unhappy with Fox's then-steady diet of reality shows and other programming. Spann followed several of his former WBRC colleagues to the newly formed ABC 33/40, which had merged WCFT with WJSU-TV in Anniston and a new low-power repeater in Birmingham, and had replaced WBRC as Birmingham's ABC affiliate. He has been at ABC 33/40 ever since. Spann is the founder of The Weather Factory (formerly The Weather Company) which provides broadcast weather forecasts for a number of radio stations and weather data for industrial and business clients. Spann was the 33rd person in America to receive the AMS distinction as a Certified Broadcast Meteorologist. Spann remained on television for ten hours during a tornado warning for western Jefferson County on April 8, 1998. An F5 tornado struck Oak Grove High School before 8:00 that evening. The next day, Spann spoke from a helicopter about the warning and the high school's damage. Beginning in 2007, Spann could be heard by listeners of the Rick and Bubba Show, a popular syndicated radio show based in Birmingham but heard across the country, mainly in the Southeast. Spann's tenure began when the show switched flagship stations in Birmingham to WZZK-FM, where Spann's forecasts had been heard for some time beforehand. He is also the chairman and one of the founders of AllWorship.com, a non-profit organization webcasting three streaming radio stations which feature worship music in English and Spanish. The organization grew out of WRRS/Reality Radio, a commercial FM radio station that broadcast Contemporary Christian music in the Birmingham market from 2000 to 2001. In 2004, Spann hosted a television special about severe weather safety. He interviewed Goshen United Methodist Church's F4 tornado survivors of March 27, 1994 including the former pastor, Kelly Clem and her husband, Dale. Later, he spoke about the tragedy and safety instructions to Brian E. Peters, Warning Coordination Meteorologist from the National Weather Service Forecast Office in Calera's Shelby County Airport. He is also the host of WeatherBrains, a weekly weather podcast and board chairman of the Children's Hospital of Alabama. Formerly a longtime member of Hunter Street Baptist Church, Spann is the children's Sunday School teacher at Double Oak Community Church outside Birmingham. Some of the notable events covered by Spann include: Hurricane Frederic (one week after he signed on in September 1979) 1982 Ice Storm (one of the most crippling ice storms in Alabama history) 1989 Huntsville F4 Tornado (one month into his stint at WRBC) 1993 Storm of the Century (Alabama experienced the heaviest snow in record) 1994 Palm Sunday Tornado Outbreak (20 people were killed at the Goshen United Methodist Church in Cherokee County) 1995 Hurricane Opal April 8, 1998 Tornado (an F5 tornado that devastated Oak Grove, AL) December 16, 2000 Tornado (an F4 Tornado that severely damaged the southern side of the city of Tuscaloosa) November 24, 2001 Tornado Outbreak (two dozen tornadoes touched down, the most severe being an F3 in southern Lamar county) November 10, 2002 Tornado Outbreak (two F3 Tornadoes paralleled one another in Fayette, Winston, Walker, and Cullman counties) Hurricane Ivan 2004 Hurricane Katrina 2005 Hurricane Dennis 2005 April 15, 2011 Tornado Outbreak (45 tornadoes struck Alabama, with seven fatalities occurring that day) April 27, 2011 Super Outbreak (62 tornadoes ravaged the state from 4 AM-10 PM that day, killing 252 people) January 28, 2014 Snowstorm April 28, 2014 Tornado Outbreak (close to two dozen tornadoes touched down, causing 2 fatalities in Alabama) 2020 Easter Tornado Outbreak (21 tornadoes touched down in Alabama)

Following careers working in New York City government and law, Steve Isenberg sort of fell into the newspaper business. His first job in the industry was working as assistant to David Laventhol, the publisher of Newsday, then owned by Times Mirror Co. Isenberg eventually became the publisher of Greenwich Time and Stamford Advocate, where he was tasked with improving the papers’ financials. All the while Laventhol, his boss and mentor, was preparing him to help launch a new New York City paper, called New York Newsday. Isenberg worked as its associate publisher when it started and was ultimately named publisher, a position he held through the end of 1995. New York Newsday won three Pulitzer Prizes and gained the nickname “Tabloid in a Tutu.” The newspaper experiment lasted a decade before a new company executive decided to close it, for cost-cutting reasons, in 1995. On the season finale of Rally, Hearst Connecticut Media’s podcast about business leaders facing failure and bouncing back, Isenberg tells the story of the rise and fall of New York Newsday. Business reporter and Rally host Macaela J. Bennett has spent a year collecting these stories of hardship and missteps in people’s careers to share with listeners inspiring examples of overcoming obstacles.

Originally Aierd May 2010 We hear a lot about Europe's troubles - overrun by migrants, the debt crisis in Greece, threats to the Euro and the European Union. We seldom hear that Europe is also making capitalism and democracy work for people, not just corporations. The European Union, 27 nations with a half billion people, is the largest, wealthiest trading bloc in the world, nearly as large as the U.S. and China combined. According to the World Health Organization, Europe has the best health care systems in the world. Europe leads the world in confronting global climate change and the EU's ecological "footprint" (the amount of the earth's capacity that a population consumes) is about half that of the United States for the same standard of living.

11/20/11 This week's show is about a Los Angeles institution and source of local pride, nurtured to greatness as a family-owned business, purchased by someone from out-of-town who knew little about the business, put up little of his own money, and ran the property into the ground so that it is now a shell of its former self. And many customers have reacted by not buying the product. No, we're not talking about the Dodgers, but the Los Angeles Times. After buying Times Mirror, The Tribune Company sent JAMES O'SHEA to LA to run the Times. Sam Zell bought the Tribune Company in a deal that even I - no financial expert - thought was both bad and doomed, and soon the Tribune Company was in bankruptcy where it remains. O'Shea refused to do his bosses' bidding in terms of cutbacks and he was let go. Over the next two years the Times cut nearly 40% of its journalists. JAMES O'SHEA has since founded a Chicago news cooperative of which he is editor, attempting a new model of journalism. JAMES O'SHEA is editor and co-founder of the Chicago News Cooperative, former editor-in-chief of the Los Angeles Times and past managing editor of the Chicago Tribune. Under his leadership, the Tribune's news staff received six Pulitzer prizes. O'Shea is the author of THE DAISY CHAIN about the savings-and-loan crisis of the 1980s, DANGEROUS COMPANY, an examination of management consultants' role in corporate decision making, and his latest THE DEAL FROM HELL: How Moguls and Wall Street Plundered Great American Newspapers. http://thedealfromhell.com/ http://www.chicagonewscoop.org/

Former L.A. Times editor James O'Shea discusses his new book, "The Deal from Hell," giving an inside look at the Times-Mirror acquisition by the Tribune Company in 2000.
