On this episode I sat with former Governor of Oklahoma Frank Keating. Frank grew up in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and received his undergraduate degree from Georgetown University and a law degree from the University of Oklahoma.
His 30-year career in law enforcement and public service included service as an FBI agent, U.S. Attorney and state prosecutor, and Oklahoma House and Senate member, including service as a Republican senate leader. He served Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush in the Treasury, Justice, and Housing departments.
As Governor, Keating won national acclaim in 1995 for his compassionate and professional handling of the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal building in Oklahoma City. In the aftermath of the tragedy, he raised more than six million dollars to fund scholarships for the nearly 200 children left with only one or no parents.
Keating currently serves as a regent for the University of Oklahoma and lives with his wife Cathy in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. They have three children and eleven grandchildren.

He spent his free time throughout the course of his teenage years in the kitchen, learning from his mother Lisa, Aunt Gertrude and Grandmother Valerie cooking different proteins and testing different flavor combinations. His hard work paid off when he earned his place in the top seven of the hit T.V show MasterChef.
He currently operates as a private chef under his own Chef Gabe LLC, winning Best Chef 2019 in his hometown of OKC. He also crafts food content showcasing his work with different food brands with his photographer/ sister Diyahna Lewis.

On this episode I chatted with David Griffin. Many of you may not know the name but you will definitely be aware of his companies. Griffin Media is home to News9 in OKC & News6 in Tulsa along with a lot of other news and media outlets across Oklahoma. A third-generation Oklahoman, David is not your typical CEO. He’s approachable, engaging, enjoyable and very active in the business. You won't see him in front of the camera EVER but the work he does behind will impact Oklahoma for generations. David and his wife Kirsten are also very involved in many charitable causes. In his spare time, David enjoys spending time with his family and seeking new adventures. His family knows that if they go to the mountains, David is taking them on a hike and they better be prepared.
