He was “the bird lady’s son” growing up, worked in jail, threw a javelin on a national stage, and never planned on being a general manager — but Jason Spalding’s leadership story might just change the way you show up at work. 🐝
“It's always about people.”
That’s the one lesson he carried across rebar, sports, union tables, and the boardroom. And now, he's sharing how humility, inclusion, vulnerability, and evolution form the foundation of what he calls HIVE Leadership.
In this episode, Jason and Kristina dig into the real work of modern leadership—why annual reviews aren’t enough, how trust changes everything, and what bees can teach us about running high-performing teams.
Whether you’re a seasoned leader or just trying to manage your team better, this one will challenge and inspire you.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
