Pete has been a broadcaster for the last 30 years, falling in love with the edit bay in the back of a newsroom in Colorado Springs, Colorado. He studied journalism at the University of Colorado with a focus on long-form documentary production, turning that early experience into a career helping businesses shape the stories of their brands through image and sound. Pete earned an M.S. in Organizational Design and spent fifteen years teaching graduate marketing students the power of human-centered communications. From public relations teams on global multi-million dollar brand projects to marketing for independent business owners, Pete has helped shape communications that build brands. In 2006, he launched Fifth & Main, LLC., a media consultancy focused on brand-building through the nascent field of podcasting. In 2020, nearly 3,000 individual podcast episodes behind them, the company rebranded as TruStory FM with an ear toward the next decade of podcast education and entertainment.

We wrap up our series on the nominees at the 1947 Academy Awards for Best Writing, Screenplay with a conversation about Roberto Rossellini’s 1945 film “Rome, Open City.” It’s a powerful film and a great entry in the early days of Italian neo-realism. Anna Magnani and Aldo Fabrizi are the standouts, but it’s really the war-torn city of Rome that lends incredible authenticity to this dark war story. Great conversation. Check it out!
What happens to processes and systems when they are focused on creating, capturing, sharing, and reusing institutional knowledge in the work of the contact center?

Welcome to another episode of the global sensation All The Feelings, where we dive into the wacky world of emotions, and today, we’re talking about pride. Not the fabulous, rainbow-colored kind (though we love that too), but the emotion of pride.
Peter Young shares his experience getting sucked into his wife’s cult, trying to save his marriage, and the messy divorce when she chose the cult over him. He describes the cult leader’s manipulation and his fight for his kids, with lessons on handling frivolous motions, parental alienation, and saving money during divorce.
In the second of our series on transitions, we have Pete’s other partner-in-crime, Tommy Metz III, on the show to talk about forces of change, the trouble with transitions, and the launch of season 8 of our spiritual sister podcast, What’s That Smell Presents: All The Feelings.
We continue our series on the 1947 Academy Award • Best Writing, Screenplay nominees, looking at Robert Siodmak’s “The Killers,” adapted from Ernest Hemingway’s short story.

So far, we’ve felt the feelings of the now. This week, Pete and Tommy head for the feelings of yesteryear.

We continue our 1947 Academy Award Best Writing, Screenplay nominee series with a conversation about David Lean’s 1945 film “Brief Encounter.” Does the drama about a never-consumed affair warrant all the, well… drama? Or does it end up feeling dated and tepid? We go back and forth on this one. Great conversation – tune in!
