      <title>Julia Michaels | A Drink With Interview</title>
      <description><![CDATA[“A Drink With” traveled to Miami for the first time and sat down with the inimitable Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Julia Michaels. Together with Mark Levinson, we went to Art Basel to celebrate music, sound and art... and Michaels left us all inspired to create from a place of unapologetic truth. Michaels is the gutsy writer behind chart-topping hits like Justin Bieber's "Sorry," Selena Gomez's "Lose You to Love Me," Dua Lipa’s “Fever” and so much more, including her debut single "Issues." This special episode was filmed with a live audience at the Mark Levinson Vinyl Lounge and Michaels shared it all, from the creative process behind her debut album, “Not in Chronological Order,” to writing with Hollywood’s A-list to her thoughts on being less about the filter and more about the truth.

      <title>Season 2 - A Drink With - Detroit (William Clay Ford Jr.)</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Whether you’re a native Detroiter, a transplant or a boomerang, you can’t deny that what’s happening in the city is history in the (re)making. From the work ethic to the entrepreneurial spirit, Detroiters are rolling up their sleeves and rebuilding the city with the same determination as Henry Ford and Berry Gordy before them. And in the end, those visionaries, similar to the ones you’ll meet this season, not only shaped Detroit, they shaped the world. Once the fastest growing city in the world; the place that created America’s middle class. Detroit is still a city that breeds innovation.</p>
<p>Just like the city of Detroit, our guests have stories of perseverance and creativity. Why should you care? You’ll find motivation and inspiration to apply to your own life from listening to the dreamers, future leaders and risk-takers who are making a direct impact on the community. We talk about lessons learned the hard way, what it took to reach success, business advice and what makes Detroit special.</p>
<p>This season we’re partnering with <a href="https://goodwilldetroit.org/">Goodwill Industries of Greater Detroit</a> whose mission is co-creating independence and dignity through the power of personal and workforce development. Goodwill Detroit works to ensure that every neighborhood of Detroit experiences the kind of renaissance that we’re seeing in downtown and Midtown. We welcome Jessica McCall, the vice president of marketing and external affairs at Goodwill Detroit, as our special co-host. We’re asking listeners to use “#WhatsGoodDetroit“ when you come across something inspiring, notable or just plain good in the city.</p>
<p>We’re recording in the Foundation Studio at <a href="https://detroitfoundationhotel.com/">Detroit Foundation Hotel</a>. Our official podcast studio is located within the beautiful boutique hotel which is the former Detroit Fire Department Headquarters and Pontchartrain Wine Cellars.</p>

      <itunes:summary>Welcome to the Season Finale of Season 2 of “A Drink With – Detroit!” This week we are pleased to be sharing a drink with someone we’ve been wanting to have on the show since the beginning, William Clay Ford Jr. Ford is the great grandson to the founder of Ford Motor Company, Henry Ford, and is the company’s current executive chairman. In this episode, we cover everything from his purchase and plans for the Michigan Central Train Station and charting his own course, to how he believes most risks are worth taking. He reminds us how there was a time that Ford Motor Company would show potential employees everything but downtown Detroit and he shares personal stories about his great grandfather. He leaves us excited about how Detroit is ready to be the spot for city solutions and the future of mobility.</itunes:summary>

Marcus is a culturally curious thinker with an academic insight into the cognitive drivers that impact consumer behavior... we stole that from his professor bio at Michigan Ross. The truth is, as soon as we heard Beyonce&apos;s former digital strategist was back in Detroit, we had to get a drink with him. Listen in as Marcus shares what he learned from working with former Interscope and Sony Music president-turned-advertising guru, Steve Stoute, and how &quot;God&apos;s plan&quot; led him back to Detroit.</itunes:summary>

      <title>Season 2 - A Drink With - Detroit (Allee Willis)</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<h2>In the sixth episode of “A Drink With - Detroit” you’ll meet one of the most legendary and influential songwriters of the 70s, 80s and 90s, Allee Willis, who was recently inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. Her work includes Earth Wind &amp; Fire’s “September” and “Boogie Wonderland” and “Neutron Dance” by Pointer Sisters in addition to one of the most recognized TV theme songs to date, “I’ll Be There For You” from NBC’s “Friends.” In this episode Willis takes us on a roller coaster ride of career ups and downs which all led her to discover each passion of hers. Along with having a successful music career, Willis tells Hillary Sawchuk and Jessica McCall about how the opportunities in life come when you’re down, how Detroit is in another golden age of music and why Detroit is the most soulful city in the world. Willis also wrote and produced &quot;The D,&quot; a love song to the city of Detroit featuring 5,000 vocalists and musicians, more people in history that have ever been on a record before. Pour yourself a coffee and listen to Willis share her words of wisdom, incredible stories and witty jokes.</h2>
<p>Whether you’re a native Detroiter, a transplant or a boomerang, you can’t deny that what’s happening in the city is history in the (re)making. From the work ethic to the entrepreneurial spirit, Detroiters are rolling up their sleeves and rebuilding the city with the same determination as Henry Ford and Berry Gordy before them. And in the end, those visionaries, similar to the ones you’ll meet this season, not only shaped Detroit, they shaped the world. Once the fastest growing city in the world; the place that created America’s middle class. Detroit is still a city that breeds innovation.</p>
<p>Just like the city of Detroit, our guests have stories of perseverance and creativity. Why should you care? You’ll find motivation and inspiration to apply to your own life from listening to the dreamers, future leaders and risk-takers who are making a direct impact on the community. We talk about lessons learned the hard way, what it took to reach success, business advice and what makes Detroit special.</p>
<p>This season we’re partnering with <a href="https://goodwilldetroit.org/">Goodwill Industries of Greater Detroi</a>t whose mission is co-creating independence and dignity through the power of personal and workforce development. Goodwill Detroit works to ensure that every neighborhood of Detroit experiences the kind of renaissance that we’re seeing in downtown and Midtown. We welcome Jessica McCall, the vice president of marketing and external affairs at Goodwill Detroit, as our special co-host. We’re asking listeners to use “#WhatsGoodDetroit“ when you come across something inspiring, notable or just plain good in the city.</p>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>In the sixth episode of “A Drink With - Detroit” you’ll meet one of the most legendary and influential songwriters of the 70s, 80s and 90s, Allee Willis, who was recently inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. Her work includes Earth Wind &amp; Fire’s “September” and “Boogie Wonderland” and “Neutron Dance” by Pointer Sisters in addition to one of the most recognized TV theme songs to date, “I’ll Be There For You” from NBC’s “Friends.” In this episode Willis takes us on a roller coaster ride of career ups and downs which all led her to discover each passion of hers. Along with having a successful music career, Willis tells Hillary Sawchuk and Jessica McCall about how the opportunities in life come when you’re down, how Detroit is in another golden age of music and why Detroit is the most soulful city in the world. Willis also wrote and produced &quot;The D,&quot; a love song to the city of Detroit featuring 5,000 vocalists and musicians, more people in history that have ever been on a record before. Pour yourself a coffee and listen to Willis share her words of wisdom, incredible stories and witty jokes.</h2>

The Empowerment Plan manufactures coats that meet the needs of those in the homeless community. The durable coat transforms into a sleeping bag at night or an over-the-shoulder-bag when not in use. Scott talks about the light bulb moment for her idea that occurred at just 22 years old, how homelessness isn't what you think it is and how people can come into your life at just the right time.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>In the third episode we feature <a href="http://stockx.com">StockX</a> co-founder Josh Luber. We hear all about his one-in-a-million idea, how he connected with Dan Gilbert and Eminem, what StockX is doing to attract talent to Detroit and why the path to success is never a straight line. Luber's honest will make you look at entrepreneurship in a whole new way. Prior to StockX, he had a several startups and for one he had to call his list of investors — including friends and family — and explain that the money was gone. Listen in on why Mark Wahlberg, Eminem and Scooter Braun are just some of the lucky few invested in the startup that is making $2 million a day in sales and is on track to being the fastest growing company in the world.</p>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the third episode we feature <a href="http://stockx.com">StockX</a> co-founder Josh Luber. We hear all about his one-in-a-million idea, how he connected with Dan Gilbert and Eminem, what StockX is doing to attract talent to Detroit and why the path to success is never a straight line. Luber's honest will make you look at entrepreneurship in a whole new way. Prior to StockX, he had a several startups and for one he had to call his list of investors — including friends and family — and explain that the money was gone. Listen in on why Mark Wahlberg, Eminem and Scooter Braun are just some of the lucky few invested in the startup that is making $2 million a day in sales and is on track to being the fastest growing company in the world.</p>

<p>Whether you’re a native Detroiter, a transplant or a boomerang, you can’t deny that what’s happening in the city is history in the (re)making. From the work ethic to the entrepreneurial spirit, Detroiters are rolling up their sleeves and rebuilding the city with the same determination as Henry Ford and Berry Gordy before them. And in the end, those visionaries, similar to the ones you’ll meet this season, not only shaped Detroit, they shaped the world. Once the fastest growing city in the world; the place that created America’s middle class. Detroit is still a city that breeds innovation.</p>
<p>Just like the city of Detroit, our guests have stories of perseverance and creativity. Why should you care? You’ll find motivation and inspiration to apply to your own life from listening to the dreamers, future leaders and risk-takers who are making a direct impact on the community. We talk about lessons learned the hard way, what it took to reach success, business advice and what makes Detroit special.</p>
<p>This season we’re partnering with <a href="https://goodwilldetroit.org/">Goodwill Industries of Greater Detroit</a> whose mission is co-creating independence and dignity through the power of personal and workforce development. Goodwill Detroit works to ensure that every neighborhood of Detroit experiences the kind of renaissance that we’re seeing in downtown and Midtown. We welcome Jessica McCall, the vice president of marketing and external affairs at Goodwill Detroit, as our special co-host. We’re asking listeners to use “#WhatsGoodDetroit“ when you come across something inspiring, notable or just plain good in the city.</p>

      <title>Season 2 - A Drink With - Detroit (Jason Hall Interview)</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In the second episode you'll meet social entrepreneur and Detroit activist Jason Hall, the co-creator of <a href="https://slowroll.bike/">Slow Roll Detroit</a>. Slow Roll is a community bike ride that started out as getting together with friends but quickly grew to thousands of riders gathering for a greater purpose. The ride has put more than $5 million back into the city and caught Apple's eye leading to an Apple commercial and feature on Slow Roll shot in Detroit. Hall talks about his departure from Slow Roll and what he has <a href="https://ridetroit.com/">planned next</a>. Slow Roll isn't just a bike ride, it's a means to bring people of all races and all ages together in Detroit which is what Detroit is about. Hall reminds us that if something doesn't feel good, get out of it and how sometimes it's nice to just let life take you where it takes you.</p>

      <title>Season 2 Premiere - A Drink With - Detroit (Shannon Washburn Interview)</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In the season premiere of Season 2 of “A Drink With – Detroit” we’re getting a drink with Shannon Washburn, the president of Shinola. In 2011 Shinola decided to make Detroit home and has been a job-creation vehicle ever since. Shinola is known for their watches, bicycles, leather goods and will be opening its first hotel in Detroit this fall. Shannon joined the team in 2012 as the vice president of watch development and in February of 2018 was named president. What’s so great about Detroit is that while it’s a big city, it very quickly can feel like small town, which is why we were able to grab a drink with Shannon. Listen in as we do happy hour and get the scoop on how she worked her way to president and what it’s really like running the Detroit-based company that champions American-made goods.</p>
