Going Big with Dr. Michael Crow: Redesigning the American University
19-1-2026 | 48 Min.
What if excellence in higher education wasn’t about who you exclude—but about how many you can empower to succeed?

In this episode of Going Big!, host Kevin Gentry sits down with Dr. Michael Crow, President of Arizona State University and one of the most visionary university leaders in America. Over the past two decades, Dr. Crow has led a sweeping transformation of ASU—turning it into the nation’s largest research university, dramatically expanding access, and pioneering a new model of continuous innovation.

They explore how ASU scaled from 55,000 to over 200,000 degree-seeking students without compromising quality, why the university now graduates more engineers than nearly any institution in America, and how it became a driving force behind the largest foreign direct investment in U.S. history. Dr. Crow also unpacks the cultural resistance he faced, the radical accountability embedded in ASU’s charter, and how universities can become true engines of national progress.

If you care about the future of higher education, institutional transformation, or what it means to lead boldly at scale—this conversation will reset your expectations.
Going Big with Governor Glenn Youngkin: From Basketball to the Boardroom to the Capitol
12-1-2026 | 57 Min.
In this episode of Going Big!, host Kevin Gentry sits down with Governor Glenn Youngkin for a wide‑ranging and deeply personal conversation that goes far beyond politics.

From growing up in a working‑class Virginia family shaped by resilience, to leading one of the world’s most influential investment firms, to answering an unexpected call to public service, Governor Youngkin shares the defining moments that prepared him for leadership. He reflects on the mentors who challenged him, the role of faith in shaping his marriage and decision‑making, and the lessons sports taught him about teamwork, discipline, and results.

Kevin and Governor Youngkin explore what it really means to go big as a leader—why listening matters more than talking, how values guide hard decisions, and why execution ultimately separates good ideas from real impact. The conversation connects business leadership, public service, and personal purpose in a way that’s practical, honest, and deeply human.

Whether you’re leading an organization, discerning a calling, or simply asking what meaningful service looks like in your own life, this episode offers a compelling blueprint for leading with clarity, conviction, and purpose.
Going Big with Gay Gaines: The Woman Behind the GOP Revolution and the Revival of Mount Vernon
05-1-2026 | 39 Min.
What does it take to launch a revolution—twice?

In this episode of Going Big!, host Kevin Gentry sits down with Gay Gaines, one of the most influential civic leaders of the last half-century. She helped build GOPAC into the engine that propelled Newt Gingrich to the speakership in 1994. Then she went on to raise over $100 million to transform Mount Vernon into the national treasure it is today.

Gay’s story is about more than political strategy or philanthropy—it’s about fearlessness. From befriending Margaret Thatcher and Bill Buckley to organizing with Rush Limbaugh and inspiring thousands to give generously, she shows what it means to commit fully to a cause you believe in.

Tune in to hear how she built movements, mentored leaders, and raised money the old-fashioned way: by asking big, bold, unapologetic questions. This is a masterclass in conviction, contribution, and Going Big.
