Recorded 4/30/2020, prior to the May 25th death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police. Judy Williams audited Dr. Michael Hicks' Centenary class "Doing Race" during the spring term. Interrupted by COVID and continued on Zoom, the class delved into the heart of our country's racial divide. Early in the Spring, Judy approached Thomas and me, suggesting an interview with Dr. Hicks on the origin of such a class, its objectives, and its takeaways, to occur after the semester drew to a close. The discussion between Judy and Dr. Hicks took place on April 30, 2020.

Blake Jackson of Whisk Dessert Bar is a ray of sunshine and a kick in the ass to anyone moping around during their shelter-in-place existence. His Private Chef services are shut down . . . so he sells Private Chef Dinner bonds to be cashed in later. His 9-to-5, his bakery - shut down. Enter Pinpals - he'll make the stuff and ship it anywhere you want. Voila! A whole new revenue stream just opened up for Whisk. Feeling sorry for yourself?

Listen in, get inspired, and get moving. Tree chopping season might be temporarily on hold, but folks like Blake are using this economic crisis as an opportunity to sharpen their axes.

Good morning, sunshines!

Today is a big one! Superstar chef, Anthony Felan of THE Fat Calf Brasserie is sitting down with Melissa Brannan at noon on the Prize Fest page to talk comfort in the time of crisis and we might even get his famous roast chicken recipe. ;)

Amanda Davis Felan looks like we need to get the fan club together for this one.

Charlie Veuleman, an RN in the ER at Willis Knighton Pierremont, gives us a report from the front lines. He says it's not too terribly bad out there, but that's attributable to folks keeping their distance. Listen in and be proud of our local medical personnel who have been preparing for this monster since late January into early February. Thanks Charlie for joining us, and more importantly thank you and the medical teams around the city for the long hours and hard work you've been putting in to care for those affected by COVID-19.

Twisted Root is selling toilet paper and paper towels as well as their usual menu items. Strange times indeed.

Different format for the foreseeable future. This will be the first of a number of short-form episodes where Thomas Young and I talk to the folks in the midst of the crisis that can offer solutions to this major problem. Recording via telephone call (sorry for the audio) and 100% dedicated to COVID-19 and our city's response. No better person to discuss this with than Grant Nuckolls - his business interests are taking a major hit, but he stays positive, and even finds hope in the economic turmoil. Most importantly, he wants to assist all of Shreveport's business owners with getting the assistance they need. Go to www.Shreve.biz to learn more.

Grant Nuckolls talks about COVID-19 and its effect on Shreveport's business community. More importantly, we discuss government's response and ways business owners can apply for SBA loans, payroll assistance and loans to float business expenses to combat the effects of two or more months without a revenue stream. Grant is owner of Twisted Root, and (with Rhino's Andrew Crawford) part-owner of Jacquelyn's. He has seen a 60-70% drop in total revenue at both locations and has heard the same numbers from other restaurant and bar owners. The City of Shreveport, in concert with CoHab and Grant, launched www.shreve.biz to provide resources to struggling businesses in this unprecedented economic shut-down and quarantine. Listen and learn how you as a sheltered-in-place Shreveporter can help out where our city and its citizens need it most.

Andrew Crawford is a Shreveport native, a Magnet High School graduate and Baylor alum. He's of course best known in our town as the proprietor of Rhino Coffee. Long before the coffee shops, there was Crawford Design, specializing in graphic design, branding, logo services and website building. He and Grant Nuckolls acquired Jacquelyn's on Louisiana Avenue in 2019 and are continuing its tradition of serving consistently delicious lunch fare every day of the work week. Grant and Andrew collaborate with Matt Snyder on Derby Day, Crawfest, Wheels in the Hills, Bourbon and Bow Ties, and other now-iconic events highlighting Shreveport's local business, food, art and music scene. Andrew tells Josh and Thomas all about starting a business, building a brand, doing downtown, and making Shreveport a better place through day-in and day-out hard work. Enjoy!

02/20/2020

Fat Calf Boucherie was my favorite "food truck" ever, and now Chef Anthony Felan's Fat Calf Brasserie is a shining example of Shreveport's food revolution. A handful of young chefs in our town are changing the game and elevating expectations far beyond where they were a very, very short time ago.

Local food aficionado Megan Davenport conducts one of the best interviews we've had in our brief 26-episode lifetime, and she could not have picked a better subject. Chef is quick to give credit where it is due: his wife Amanda Davis Felan, his mother in law Berniece Bradford Kovac, and his front-of-the-house and kitchen staff that are taking care of customers at the corner of Kings Highway and Creswell.

Chef Felan's vision never was to have a restaurant with great parking. He wanted to build a restaurant so damn good that people wouldn't mind the walk (and the wait). Mission accomplished.

02/13/2020

BRF's Entrepreneurial Accelerator Program (EAP) is cultivating amazing growth in Shreveport's startup community. Julie Gilley Milam and Nick Oliver, two of EAP's financial analysts, join the Three180 in this episode to explain what the EAP does, how it started, and why it matters to our community.

We talk about economic development at the micro level as our guests take us through EAP's process, from an idea on the back of a business napkin, through the financial pro forma creation process, to the coaching and mentorship of the entrepreneur, to the practice for the big presentation, and eventually to the pitch to potential investors. But EAP doesn't cut and run once the business is partially funded. They often maintain a small percentage of ownership of the business, thereby having a financial stake in its success. They usually stay alongside their startups well after the phase one funding stage.

We also discuss our region's economic development in the broader sense: the search for the whale, the analyses that these big employers are undertaking when choosing their next locations, and the brutal truth that confronts our area - we presently don't have what they're looking for. That said, Julie recently played a big part in landing Advanced Aero Services to our region's airport - http://www.eapla.com/2020/01/16/eap-portfolio-company-advanced-aero-services-launches-operations-in-shreveport-louisiana/ . We discuss that, too!

The takeaway here is that for the time being, we need to forego the search for the home run big corporation and instead focus on base hits, understand what we do offer, cultivate growth at the small and local level, and improve our region from within. EAP is specially designed to do just that. With Julie and Nick on board, the Accelerator is seeing great success.

Enjoy!

Our next guest needs no introduction. But . . .

Matt Snyder is a lifelong Shreveport resident, entrepreneur, husband, and proud father of five. Matt owns PinPoint Local Marketing which represents around 25 local businesses in their marketing strategy and community involvement. He is also creator and operator of 6 annual events including Shreveport Derby Day, Tinsel, and Crawfest in Betty Virginia Park. Matt is quick to fight for Shreveport’s future and is involved in politics and non profit boards.

And I will say that Matt Snyder's passion for our community, willingness to fight the status quo, and determination to challenge antiquated ways of business operations in Shreveport are leading to a greater sense of pride in our community. In this episode he explains how he saw things in 2014 and why he started PinPoint Local Marketing. Matt has a vision for a future Shreveport that looks in some ways like the older Shreveport inhabited by his Sicilian immigrant ancestors: Local businesses working together, buying from (and selling to) one another, joining forces to host events that benefit the community, and enriching our town while growing our economy.

His events are tapping into our collective sense of place, and reaffirming what we already know about our town. He, Grant Nuckolls, and Andrew Crawford have forged a unique partnership, and their leadership and engagement in the broader Shreveport are not going unnoticed.

Love him or not, Matt tells it like it is. I've enjoyed many conversations with him over the years, and this one's recorded for all to hear. Every time we talk, I come away with the sense that Shreveport is moving in the right direction. I hope you feel the same after listening in to Episode 24. Enjoy!

Kyle Baudoin was born and raised south of Lafayette, La and it was there that he met and married his wife Laura Thomas Baudoin. It is where their family began and where the couple really always thought they would probably stay and raise their two children - Porter, 8, and Camille, 4. Then in mid 2016, life threw them a large curveball and during that tough time, there were many moments of reflection that led to them deciding to make a move. By July 2017 they were residents of Laura’s hometown, Shreveport, LA.

Seven years ago Laura and her mother Martha opened up a women’s retail shop named M. Five years later, in September of 2017, Kyle and Laura opened up L.E. & CHALK, a men’s store. They love living and working in the South Highlands neighborhood and are excited for the future of the City of Shreveport.

Episode 22: Thomas sits down with Landon Lloyd Miller, a coffee roaster in Shreveport, Louisiana. Originally a cafe manager, he often consults with other businesses as well as personally roasting the beans for Rhino Coffee. He is also an established songwriter and creative spirit. He lives in Highland with his wife Danielle and their two daughters Frances and Madeline.

This conversation goes deep into the weeds about coffee roasting and production, which might not be your jam. But keep listening. On the surface, Miller is curating the beans, experimenting with roasting techniques, introducing new flavor profiles, and striving for quality. But the whole operation has created its own ecosystem. Rhino is roasting beans in the warehouse adjacent to its downtown cafe, utilizing otherwise unoccupied space. Miller is giving spent grounds to farmers (and at least one local chef) to use as mulch. Rhino's two locations (South Highlands and Downtown) are now bustling hubs of their respective neighborhoods. 624 Lofts / the old Sears building would not have its curb appeal without the cafe. Jobs have been created. And local restaurants (Jacquelyn's, Well+Fed, Marilynn's Place, Ralph's Place, just to name a few), serve Rhino coffee - brewed and roasted right here in Shreveport. Whole Foods sells our local coffee by the bag. In the last few months, the Rhino guys and the L.E. Chalk team even worked together to create a specialty blend for the men's clothing store (more on that in Episode 23).

Once again, a conversation with a local talented person yields much insight into Shreveport's economic development, both in the present moment and into the future.

Episode 21 features Brent Latin, owner of Young Pros Entertainment, (which he essentially started in high school). Gets an accounting degree from La. Tech, makes money playing music gigs around town, opens a production studio in downtown Shreveport right out of college, and employs local people to produce hyper-local content from music to sports, with more ideas in the pipeline.

12/05/2019

Thomas and I started this podcast after talking to a number of doers. We'd heard from all over the spectrum. But what we felt was pushing Shreveport forward were people with real ideas, making actual change, working hard, and serving the demands of a market based economy - our unique Shreveport economy - that isn't necessarily what some folks want it to be / think it should be. We meet these folks. Talk to them. And we hope to publish their stories so that others are inspired to continue whatever change-making path they're on. Not lip service change to make a community feel good about itself, but real change, the kind of work that can turn struggling communities into more prosperous ones. Austin and Alorah Wiseman are doing that. House by house. And maybe soon, block by block. Listen in . . .

She was first attracted to Chris because of a radio show he was producing on Centenary’s KSCL (where Sara was the station manager) and the amount of care and attention he put into curating and researching the contents of what was aired. She did her graduate work in Denver, Colorado, and was convinced by Chris to come back to Shreveport. “Our relationship is always built on the fact that making culture is important, rather than just consuming it.”
