  • Chris Johnson of the Passion Pod: The story behind one of WI's fastest growing podcasts
    Mar 12 2025

    Chris' life took a turn within a year he had his first kid, his parents got divorced and his Dad ended up having a heart transplant. It made him look in the mirror and ask himself if he died tomorrow how would he feel about what he did with his life.

    This sparked Chris' entrepreneurial journey where he opened up a skateboard shop in Eau Claire that he ran for 10 years and ultimately launched the Passion Pod right before the pandemic hit in 2019.

    The show is now one of the hottest podcasts coming out of Wisconsin and has a guest lineup featuring a lot of recognizable national musicians and celebrities.

    If you're looking to learn more about what it takes to start and grow a show or make a career pivot and start chasing your passion this episode is for you.

  • Richie & Rayshawn: An Eventful First Year of Big Brothers Big Sisters
    Mar 5 2025

    What's it like to go from no kids to mentoring a high energy 6 year old through BBBS? It's been an adventurous and very rewarding last year.

    Over a year ago I was looking at volunteer opportunities in the Milwaukee area and wanted to make a difference. I looked into Big Brothers Big Sisters, since I had some friends Glenny Crawford and Dusty Weis that are part of the program and had great things to say about it and the impact that you can have. I also remembered my Dad mentoring through a different program while I was growing up which ultimately inspired me to sign up.

    And I went through the process applied, got my fingerprints, interviewed with someone from BBBS, went through a training and then they match you with a kid that they feel is a great match.

    So last January after going through the process I met Rayshawn, a high energy 6 year old at the time and his Mom and everything going approved and we were off.

    And it’s been an amazing, very eye opening fun year, I had a lot of respect for full time parents before this experience but I can say after being responsible for keeping a 6 year old alive for a few hours a week I’ve got a whole new level of respect for you parents out there who are responsible 24/7.

    Before we dive in I would like to say if you feel inspired to get involved there is a big need right now as there are 500 kids on the waitlist alone, waiting for a mentor due the demand.

    And there are more ways to help out then what I do that are a little lower commitment than the “community based mentoring I do” - some are just after school, some are once a month and those are also very important--- so if you are interested at all or have any questions feel free to reach out to me directly happy to help.
