With Gratitude, Matt
Gratitude—the profound sense of thankfulness—often emerges from recognizing the blessings, privileges, or serendipities life bestows. While a diagnosis like cancer is rarely seen as a cause for gratitude, Matt Moran felt otherwise. His battle with kidney cancer inspired him to launch this podcast in 2020, a platform where life lessons, faith, and resilience shine through adversity. Every episode shares stories of hope and determination, revealing how gratitude can guide us through life’s toughest challenges. Following Matt’s passing in 2023, his older brother, Bill, stepped in to continue the mission, ensuring the podcast remains a beacon of inspiration. Together, the Moran brothers’ legacy encourages us all to embrace life’s journey with faith, hope, and a grateful heart.

Measuring Success by How Many You Bless, with Rodney Blunt
Rodney Blunt’s mission every day is to help others. His foundation, City Streets to Students Athletes (CS2SA), focuses on deterring student athletes from drugs and crime. As a former running back at Clemson from 1989-1993 (he led the Tigers in rushing and touchdowns in 1991 and 1993), Rodney saw first hand the many temptations and challenges of being a student athlete. He then spent 18 years in law enforcement and saw how destructive drugs can be and decided this would be his focus area. His organization has a strategic methodology to help student athletes understand the temptations of drugs, peer pressure and the consequences of bad choices. Rodney is an energetic speaker who is planting seeds in every kid he meets in an effort to make them aware of their potential and develop character. CS2SA has touched the lives of over 10,000 families and manages accountability through their drug-free pledge. Listen to this inspiring interview as Rodney explains how he is making a difference and blessing the lives of so many others. You can also view the interview on YouTube here.
