Episode 138: Irvington Ghost Tours, Alan Hunter Oct 30, 2019

Show notes

Feel full-body chills as the leader of the Irvington Ghost Tours, Al Hunter, reveals the haunts of Irvington. As a history teacher, Hunter recognized that ghost stories kept his students entertained and engaged with the material. What began as the simple retelling of the Lincoln Ghost Train eventually became Hunter's life as now he has been tracing down the spooky stories of Irvington for over seventeen years. When he started his research, residents were hesitant to share what haunted their homes and community spaces. Now his nearly three-hour tour attracts hundreds of people from all over the midwest for stories of H.H. Holmes. D.C. Stephenson, and the heroic woman whose actions sparked the fall of the KKK. Tune in to learn about the research behind the Irvington Ghost Tour, the history of Irvington, and a sneak peek into some of the most hair raising and spine-tingling stories that you could hear on your tour. Drink deep of the culture that surrounds you this week with Al Hunter from Irvington Ghost Tours. Learn about Irvington Ghost Tours!

Episode 137: NapTown Fitness, Peter Brasovan Oct 23, 2019

Show notes

Peter Brasovan made his passion for fitness a career, by co-founding NapTown Fitness. Peter grew up in Merrillville, Indiana learning hard work through mentorship from great sports coaches and observing his entrepreneurial family. He played soccer at IUPUI and graduated with three degrees and a minor before touring around the United States for Playstation. After a few tours and an investment bet with his friends, Peter got a job with the White Sox and joined CrossFit Chicago. He decided to work for his membership fee between games, not realizing that owner Ruby Tapalla would mentor him for his future career. When his best friend, Jared Byczko, was interested in starting a business, they took their Kelley School of Business majors to Indianapolis to start Crossfit NapTown right before the 2012 Super Bowl. Learn how NapTown Fitness was founded with no outside investments, how it has evolved to be more than a CrossFit gym, and how it’s achieving its mission to make Indianapolis one of the healthiest cities.

Episode 136: Phil Powell, IU Kelley School of Business at IUPUI Oct 16, 2019

Show notes

“Education is a great way to uplift humanity.” Phil Powell, the Associate Dean of Academic Programs at the IU Kelley School of Business at IUPUI, is passionate about using higher education to cultivate talent for Indiana companies. Phil grew up wanting to change the world and discovered through trial and error that understanding markets was the most beneficial method. Now, as an enthusiastic economist, Phil discusses the juxtaposition that the US is currently experiencing: Better jobs and working environments, but more poor people. Since the talent pipeline and solution to poverty starts by increasing support in early childhood education, the IU Kelley School of Business is working to change the culture of education in Indianapolis. In addition to the talent shortage, Phil touches on their work broadening business opportunities and bringing innovation to healthcare. Break out your compass to start drawing your demand curve as Phil sheds light on many of the drivers of economic and social problems and solutions in Indianapolis, highlights the impact of IU Kelley School of Business’ efforts, and even shares the story his first cup of coffee, which happened at 40 years old. Drink deep of the culture that surrounds you this week with Phil Powell from IU Kelley School of Business at IUPUI.

Episode 135: Ish Muhammad & Pamela Bliss Oct 09, 2019

Show notes

Channel your inner Van Gough as we dive into the diverse backgrounds of two of the artists selected to participate in Jiffy Lube's Every Part Matters arts initiative, Pamela Bliss and Ish Muhammad.. Pamela, who is most recognized for her Kurt Vonnegut and Reggie Miller murals, grew up in Indiana constantly drawing. Influenced by her math-loving father, she approaches her art technically from the “how” versus the “why” perspective. On the flip side, Ish Muhammad grew up in NYC on the lower east side, surrounded continuously by public art and graffiti that emphasized the “why” versus the “how.” For Ish, “…being creative has always been a reality,” which has inspired his passionate graffiti work around the nation. Dip your paintbrush and shake up your paint cans as we learn about impressionistic art, the power of murals and graffiti, and Pamela and Ish’s work in Indianapolis. Drink deep of the culture that surrounds you this week with Pamela Bliss and Ish Muhammad.

Episode 134: MilesHerndon and Gavel, Daniel Herndon Oct 02, 2019

Show notes

Daniel Herndon’s story is one that reminds us of how many non-traditional paths have excellent outcomes, that a career is a concept, not a necessity, and how grit is essential for success. Daniel grew up as one of twelve children in the Sunshine Inn, his home during the week and a public music venue on the weekends. Although homeschooled, the variety of guests that would attend the music events at his home exposed him to many cultures. Daniel was a natural entrepreneur and was always creating jobs for himself. His family couldn’t afford the curriculum necessary for him to finish high school, and without college experience, he still received an internship with the University Loft company. Daniel eventually felt that his creativity was being stifled in the business world and started a band that he worked for full-time on for 1.5 years. As many musicians do, he learned the business side of music and eventually transitioned into marketing. Today, he owns MilesHerndon, which helps brands with branding and marketing strategy, and Gavel.
