It's Gretchen's first guest of the year and she couldn't have selected somebody with more energy, passion for the community, or as Liam Neeson would put it "a very particular set of skills." She's not gonna track you down and hurt you with them, but Raina Dawson could certainly send you a perfectly typed letter.

One thing we know for sure, you are will laugh and smile through this whole episode!!

In a rare twist of the format of the show, Kevin invited a guest that he's never actually met in person. That didn't stop him from admiring the work that Jacob Parr does and his passion for Toledo. Safe to say you won't find anybody who wants to fly Toledo's flag more than Jacob.

We had the chance to sit down with NEW University of Toledo Women’s Basketball Coach Ginny Boggess, and she brought some incredible energy and insights to the conversation. From her coaching journey to the challenges and triumphs of leading a Division I program, Ginny gives us a look at what it takes to build a winning team both on and off the court.

If you’re a fan of basketball, leadership, or just love hearing stories of perseverance and teamwork, you’re going to love this one. Ginny’s passion for the game and her players is contagious, and there’s a lot to take away from her experiences.
