On this episode myself and cohost Eric Granado @eric.granado interviewed Josh and Jacy Lippoldt. Josh and Jacy along with their friends from college started a direct to consumer meat company in Jan 2020. While studying at OSU they came up with the idea and then once graduating decided to make it a reality. Josh and Jacy help run their side of the business in Okarche Oklahoma where their families have farmed for four generations. Josh literally drove a tractor from birth and has been in the agricultural industry his entire life. So this is not just a new job for them, this is a vision to bring quality meat to the consumer. Generations of farming technics, skills and knowledge put into everything they do. This was a great episode and I definitely want to live on a farm now.

On this episode of our Golf series I chatted with Director of Instruction at Southern Hills Country Club Mr Ryan Rode. Ryan was born and raised in Oklahoma, grew up on the 11th hole out at Oak Tree East course so naturally golf was all he knew. He then played in college and decided to chase the golf profession shortly after graduating. Realizing a 9-5 job was not going to cut it. So Ryan went to work with and for some of the biggest names in the business all over the country, for legendary coaches like Hank Haney, Cameron McCormak and finally coming full circle back to Oklahoma to Gaillardia as Head Pro and then in the last year to Southern Hills CC in Tulsa. Ryan has an extremely impressive selection of young Oklahoma Amataur and professional golfers that he works with. No doubt you'll be seeing him walking the ranges on tour in the near future.
Follow Ryan on Instagram for all his tips and a look into Oklahoma's future golf stars. @rrodypga and follow us for all there is to talk about in Oklahoma Golf @thisisoklahomagolf.

Playing in China for a few years and winning the China tour money list giving him a full European Tour card as well as a Korn Ferry Tour card.

On this episode my friend Gannon shares his story. How he left the corporate world to pursue his dream of working for himself. That dream would be a pizza food truck with his mom Nonna. Driving from Perkins to Stillwater Oklahoma in the early days and then making his way to the city to feed people everyday. Driving down from Perkins day after day to be successful. Before they knew it their feeding the OKC Thunder, loved by us all, lines around the block and Nonna's sweet face ready to greet you at the window. Their pizza is known around the world. Nonna's famous Sauce and balls and Gannons grandmothers recipe started them on their way. Not only are they one of the best pizza spots in the world but they are great people and they have a great team.
Congrats on all the success and we are behind you all the way when your new restaurant opens up.
