Thursday Aug 17, 2023
Two things are coming at you: Some amazing Iowa history that you may not know plus an open ride to learn more about the place Iowa held during the days of the Underground Railroad. My guest is Dayna Chandler who is with the Iowa Chapter of Black Girls Do Bike and while we'll chat a bit about that we want to invite you on the ride that will examine the history of Iowa. The Iowa Underground Railroad Ride happens in September and there's plenty of time to get registered for this amazing journey that highlights "freedom seekers" and those Iowans who helped them gain their freedom at a great risk.

College Sports Tickets - Student to Student meet Josh Cohen
Monday Jun 12, 2023
Monday Jun 12, 2023
Last week I attended EntreFest a gathering of established entrepreneurs along with individuals who have an idea but have yet to launch. There I met Josh Cohen a young man from the Chicago area who has come up with an idea (and soon to be released) app that will enable college students, nationwide, to sell their event tickets to other students. And, on top of that, make a little money. The application is called Seat Stock and students will soon be getting an email asking them to join. Have a listen, we thought it's a great idea! Oh, and while you're here you can click through to his Mom's business Jewels Den. Both...entrepreneurs.
