The Mudd Show

Meet Leticia Cline, motorcycle racer, activist, model, business owner, empowerment model, entrepreneur, and nothing like what you'd expect.

Check out this cross-promotion from a new podcast called Donut Picnic: The Real Talk About Being The Boss.

This is a rerelease of the first podcast Jason Mudd did as a leader series. It is with Angie Fenton, a wonderful human who contributes so much to our community.

Jason Mudd sits down with Angie Fenton and talks about her thoughts on leadership, how life molds you into the person you are and how choice affects your attitude and direction. Angie is the editor in chief at ExtolMag.com where they highlight the beauty and joy of Southern Indiana. She is also the entertainment correspondent for WHAS 11's Great Day Live morning show. She is also an advocate for the voiceless, including animals of all kinds. Angie currently lives in Southern Indiana with her husband Jason and they are expecting their first child.

(Note from Jason Mudd- apologies for the quality at some parts. We experienced some technical difficulties.)

Jason Mudd here- like many things in my life, serendipity played a large part in how I met John Michael Covey. I didn't seek him out, nor did he seek me out. But as he was researching real estate contacts in my town of Louisville, KY he came across an agent that knew of a property that I had which may have been of interest to John and she reached out to me. I wasn't actively looking to sell but I'm always open to talking so we arranged a meeting and tour. I'm not shy about asking questions and I do my best to be aware of the vibe I'm getting from people and it was there that John and I began talking and realized we had more in common than we thought.

John didn't come from money, wasn't the best student, and wasn't located in an area that one typically associates with a booming real estate market. As he says in the podcast, his town in California just recently got a Walmart. But he does have a strong faith was instilled in him by his adoptive parents, and I believe that has been one of the best tools that he has been able to leverage on his journey thus far. And I say thus far because his story is really only beginning. At 32 he has quickly taken action and made moves in the last few years which has completely changed his lot in life. His mindset on being a continual student helps him hone his vision for the future and I am confident that his biggest things are yet to come. And I'm very excited to be able to have a front row seat for them.

So check out this candid conversation with John Michael Covey. You might hear some things that you can relate to. You're gonna love it!

This is a rerelease of a chat Jason had with Chef Anoosh Shariat in 2018 about hospitality and being hospitable. It's great stuff and full of evergreen wisdom. You're gonna love it!

Host Jason Mudd talked with songwriter and hip hop/rap artist Don Michael Jr. about his road to success. Like many people, becoming great means making mistakes and learning by doing. The fact is that there is no replacement for experience. Something that really attracted me to Don Michael was his positive mindset, which is hugely helpful for anyone who is trying to create and make an impact. The world is full of critics and any amount of positive thought can do wonders with how a person views things that happen to them. Like yoga has taught me, everything and everyone is good and bad. It's just how you look at it.

Introduced to the music industry by his father, Don Michael showed an interest in creation around age 7 by figuring out how to essentially sample tracks and mix using his Fisher-Price turntable. His parents recognized his talent and encouraged him from the beginning. At 11 after asking for a keyboard for Christmas, his dad took the cue and went ahead and gifted him with a professional Yamaha unit. He began composing and playing, eventually leading him to the songwriting world.

DMJ has seen his fare share of hiccups on this road, but as of late is experiencing a new level of recognition. He isn't what you'd expect for an up and coming rapper, as he's been on the scene for his entire life- all 42 years of it. Check out our talk and download his latest album titled 'This Is Not Music'.

Be extra grateful to those who are showing up for work, nurses and doctors (but mainly nurses) who are helping to heal people, and pretty much anyone who is keeping things running. I appreciate each and every one of you! Keep up the fantastic work!

It’s important to lean on people during times of stress and uncertainty. Check on your people! Remember- you are not alone during this time of responsible isolation. So this also makes it a great time to share some ways that we are coping with the increased time for ourselves.

This episode of the #502LeaderSeries is the first installment of a three-part series where our founder and host Jason Mudd chats with a guy that epitomizes the American spirit and is living out what many would call the intended American dream. His name is Nermin Dulalich and he immigrated from Bosnia to the United States as a refugee with his brother and mother during the Bosnian War. Like many immigrants, his journey is much more complex and multifaceted than anyone would imagine. But we know that pain and adversity can bring out some amazing traits in the right people, and today Nermin is a thriving entrepreneur and mentor in our wonderful city of Louisville.

Antigona Mehani came to the USA at age 11. Her home country is Kosovo, a war-torn state in southeastern Europe which as subject to a territorial dispute with Serbia. Her childhood was one of survival and didn't have a concept of a future that I grew up planning for. She credits this with a rushed path to adulthood and the self-awareness and compassion that has led her to be a mentor, advisor, and advocate for countless refugees, immigrants, and anyone else who feels underserved by a system that maintains that it was created for people just like her.

War-torn is a relative term, and we have many war-torn families and communities right here in the US. Right here in Louisville, KY. Check out this conversation that was supposed to run about 30 minutes but ended up being almost 90. It's just that good.

If you want to connect with Antigona or learn more about her work, please look her up on Facebook at @antigonemehani. You can find out more about the American Community Center, where she serves as Director of Development, at http://americanacc.org/about-us/staff.
