  1. Steady Habits Presents: This Could Work! with Athletic Brewing

    Steady Habits Presents: This Could Work! with Athletic Brewing

    CT Mirror State Policy Editor Erica E. Phillips sat down with Bill Shufelt and John Walker of Milford’s Athletic Brewing Company on March 19, 2025 at Stamford’s Ferguson Library. Driven by a mission to make non-alcoholic beer mainstream, Bill and John first began test-brewing in a garage in Connecticut. One hundred home-brewed batches later, they had perfected their process and refined their flavors. Then they built an entire business around it; within a few short years it’s become the world’s largest dedicated non-alcoholic brewery. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Steady Habits Presents: This Could Work! with André Swanston

    Join CT Mirror Policy Editor Erica E. Phillips as she sits down with Connecticut’s most successful entrepreneurs to explore their origin stories, how they turned their first dollar, and why Connecticut was the place to make it happen. UConn graduate and serial entrepreneur André Swanston achieved a historic nine-figure exit with the sale of his data company, Tru Optik, to TransUnion—making him one of the few Black Americans to reach such a milestone. Now, he’s channeling that success into groundbreaking ventures that transform the way content creators, brands, distributors, and consumers engage across advertising and entertainment. This show was recorded live at Stamford's Ferguson Library on Jan 14, 2025. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
