    From NBA Champion to Fighting for His Life | Scot Pollard, Ex-NBA Player

    On today's show I sat down with retired NBA center Scot Pollard, who was a 2008 NBA champion with the Boston Celtics in his last of 11 professional seasons, which included a three-year run with the Indiana Pacers. Scot talks about his life from growing up poor in Utah and Del Mar, California, to becoming a star at the University of Kansas and being drafted 19th overall in 1997 by the Detroit Pistons. He recounts his NBA journey through Detroit, Sacramento, and Indiana, highlighting the 2002 Western Conference Finals Game 6 free-throw controversy between the Kings and Los Angeles Lakers that led to a Game 7, the 2004 "Malice at the Palace" brawl between the Pacers, Pistons and fans, and learning he was traded via TV. He then details a genetic heart anomaly that also killed his father, triggered after illness and worsening into heart failure despite multiple ablations and drugs. After initially resisting, Pollard pursued transplant listings and was hospitalized at Vanderbilt, receiving a heart transplant on Feb. 16, 2024 from donor Casey Angel. He describes recovery, a pacemaker dependency, survivor's guilt counseling, meeting the donor family, and promoting organ donation and travel assistance through his wife's Pearls of Life Foundation.   If you like this episode and want to hear more Get IN. episodes where I interview Hoosiers making a difference, visit getindiana.com/podcast.

    The Team Behind the World's Largest NCAA Bracket | Marty Hill & Angela Hill, Sport Graphics & Section 127

    On today's show I sat down with Marty Hill, president of Sport Graphics, and Angela Hill, president of Section 127, to explore how a family basement printing business started 40 years ago and evolved into a major sports branding and environmental graphics partner for events like the Final Four, Super Bowl, College Football Playoff, Indy 500, Big Ten championships and more. They discuss early clients like USA Gymnastics, the Indiana Pacers and Indianapolis Colts, the shift from printed programs to large-scale signage and immersive brand experiences, and why Section 127 spun off to separate creative ideation from execution. Our conversation covers outfitting cities for big events, the pressure of creating athlete "moments," rapid turnarounds for Final Four team hotels and locker rooms, and iconic JW Marriott Indianapolis installations including the 2012 Lombardi Trophy, Guinness-record NCAA bracket, and a giant Taylor Swift graphic.

    Ending 50 Years of Population Decline | Dan Ridenour, Muncie Mayor

    On today's show I sat down with Muncie Mayor Dan Ridenour to talk about the city's history, current momentum, and quality-of-life strategy. Ridenour shares how Muncie's early economic development efforts attracted the Ball brothers in the late 1800s through access to natural gas, leading to major local institutions like Ball State University and Ball Memorial Hospital. He details his path from banking to mayor, emphasizing transparency through publishing city council documents online and focusing on housing and neighborhood-driven improvements. After decades of population decline tied to automotive job losses, Muncie has grown for three straight years, adding about 1,000 residents and 922 households, supported by new subdivisions, apartments, and partnerships with Ball State for non-student housing. Our conversation also highlights Muncie's trail systems, its endurance-sports legacy including a 45-year, 70.3-mile event and a 2021 full and half Ironman, plus weekend attractions like the David Owsley Museum, Minnetrista's Bob Ross connection, and plans tied to Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

    The Small Town Company Sending Satellites to Space | Matthew Voss, NearSpace Launch

    On today's show I sat down with Matthew Voss, president of NearSpace Launch, about growing an aerospace company started in a basement into a 20-person team that has built and delivered over 100 small satellites to orbit and flown more than 230 communications radios. Voss explains how NearSpace Launch leverages preexisting satellite constellations for more consistent satellite connectivity, supports customers with spacecraft manufacturing and on-orbit operations, and has transitioned from university and R&D work to constellation manufacturing for partners including NASA and the Space Force. He shares why the company stayed in rural Grant County, renovating historic downtown Upland buildings into clean-room facilities and scaling through contracts rather than investment. Our conversation also covers space traffic management, deorbiting, satellite collision risk, and emerging innovations like laser crosslinks and in-orbit refueling. Voss highlights NearSpace Education, a nonprofit launched in 2020 that runs space camps, high-altitude balloon launches, and Dream Big programs that help six universities build satellites and K–12 students engage with STEM statewide.

Alex shares how Wabash County is tackling population decline through quality-of-life investments, housing, and education. He also discusses Wabash's innovation history as the first electrically lit city and Mark Honeywell's roots, including the Honeywell Center's role in drawing visitors. He explains the countywide Imagine 1805 plan and projects like the Lagro river trail, the $7,000 "Lagro in Lights" sign, and the Wabash County Fellowship Program that housed interns in RVs on the Wabash River and later in renovated housing, with 40% of the first cohort continuing locally.

    Why This Indianapolis Neighborhood Is Changing Fast | Sharon Clark and Marvin Smith, Aspire Higher

    On today's show I sat down with Sharon Clark, founder of the Aspire Higher Foundation, and board member Marvin Smith about revitalizing Indianapolis' Near Northwest neighborhoods. After a 30-year collegiate volleyball coaching career at Butler, Clark transitioned into nonprofit leadership in 2023, building on years of grassroots community support. The effort centers on restoring an 1897 firehouse purchased at a Marion County tax sale in 2012 and reopened in February 2024 after a $1.6M renovation that now features community space, the RyZe Kitchen, and four apartments. Aspire Higher's pillars include community development, health and wellness, and technology-focused youth programming, including Girls in Tech trips and career exposure. They address a major food desert, transportation barriers, housing density, and plans for a small-format marketplace with financial services while preserving local history impacted by I-65 and redlining.

    She Helped Shape Art in Indianapolis | Joanna Taft, Harrison Center for the Arts

    On today's show I sat down with Joanna Taft, executive director of the Harrison Center for the Arts and founder of Herron High School. Taft describes turning a nearly vacant 65,000-square-foot historic church building into a thriving arts hub supporting 400+ artists and eight rotating galleries. She shares how early First Friday openings grew from 100 to 1,000 attendees by leveraging "mavens," then how artists leaving led to her launching Herron High School in 2006, beginning with 99 students in the Harrison Center basement – built out by mostly female rocket scientist volunteers – and later expanding to additional campuses, including Riverside. She discusses criticism around gentrification, learning about cultural gentrification, and creating "preenactments," Greatriarch portraits, and the Polklore Micro-Museum's artifact-based augmented-reality storytelling to preserve neighborhood histories while building inclusive, thriving communities.
