In this episode of Walk the Talk, host Blake Peterson sits down with a true Omaha icon — Willy Theisen, founder of Godfather’s Pizza and lifelong entrepreneur.

Willy shares stories from launching one of the fastest-growing pizza chains in the country to building a legacy rooted in vision, determination, and saying “yes” to opportunity. But his influence didn’t stop at pizza. From serving on boards like Creighton University, the Omaha Airport Authority, and the Business Ethics Alliance, to mentoring entrepreneurs and supporting countless community initiatives, Willy’s commitment to Omaha has shaped the city’s growth and spirit.

Together, Blake and Willy explore what it means to lead ethically, stay grounded in your values, and create a lasting impact in both business and life.

Should you tune in? As the Godfather of Pizza would say: “DO IT!”
