Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Building a Family Legacy: Rob Fitzpatrick on Business, Tequila, Television, and Entrepreneurship
Q: What advice would you give to early-stage entrepreneurs who have failed multiple times and are waiting for the right moment to succeed?
Don't wait for a perfect moment to start; failure builds experience, stay humble, work hard, and keep going because most people quit just before they reach success.
From Paralysis to Purpose: Jason Cooper on Recovery, Faith, and the Documentary Adversity
Q: What was it like when you woke up and learned you were paralyzed?
He describes disbelief, the initial denial, and the moment in ICU when a doctor explains he cannot move, which becomes a catalyst for accepting the need to adapt and persevere.
From Paralysis to Purpose: Jason Cooper on Recovery, Faith, and the Documentary Adversity
Q: Tell me back to the accident. What happened that day?
Jason recounts driving with friends, heavy rainfall, hitting an unlevel road, losing control, and a traumatic crash that left him paralyzed and in ICU, followed by a realization of the severity of his injuries.
From Fyre Festival to Redemption: Billy McFarland on Prison, Entrepreneurship, and Starting Over
Q: And so it'll be fun to kind of get to know you as a person, and have folks that listen to the show get to know you a little bit. So take me back, way back to what first got you interested or realizing that starting businesses is something that intrigued you and that you were pretty good at.
Billy describes growing up in the early era of the internet, his first business in middle school building a web hosting setup, and using a self-learnt model to serve local clients, which taught him customer service and revenue responsibilities.
Derek Webb of Caedmon’s Call, From Christian Music Icon to Choosing Authenticity Over Fame
Q: How has that been received?
Initially, I had the support of my fans from the band, but over time, I started to lose some as my music evolved, which is natural.
