    R2R Episode 8: Leading Indianapolis w/ former Indianapolis IN Mayor Greg Ballard

    In episode 8 I talk to former Indianapolis Indiana mayor Greg Ballard. Greg is one of the biggest underdogs we have had on the show thus far.

Things got interesting for Mayor Ballard after he left the marines. He never had any political aspirations, but some friends talked him into running for office. The only problem was that he was a nobody with no money and few connections. Despite this he still pulled off the biggest Indianapolis election upset in history and made national headlines. Tune in to hear more about Mayor Ballard’s life, how he pulled off the upset, and some special advice he has for the listeners.
