Tuesday Announcements 9/9 Dr. Mallorie Cracroft, Live Recording (Did I Mention Raffle?), Redwest Giveaway, and This Week's Gatsby-esque Guest

Fall is in the air, and Small Lake City is buzzing with activity! Fresh from indulging in the delights of the Greek Festival—a cultural staple featuring mouthwatering gyros, rice, and baklava—we're riding a wave of excitement about what's coming next for our community.

Our recent conversations have been nothing short of inspiring. Dr. Mallorie Craycroft shared her groundbreaking work with Uplift For Her, addressing critical women's health issues in Utah with passion and expertise. And if you missed Liddy Huntsman two weeks ago, you missed a masterclass in communication from someone who has brilliantly navigated the worlds of politics, media, and even stand-up comedy.

Mark your calendars for our can't-miss live event at Flanker on Friday, September 19th at 8 PM! We're pulling out all the stops with an exclusive raffle featuring Nomatic backpacks, Minky Couture blankets, gift cards to local hotspots, and curated gift bags. The night continues with DJ Solo at the afterparty—trust me, this is the gathering you've been waiting for. Even better? Buying a ticket automatically enters you into our giveaway for weekend passes to the Red West Country Music Festival, featuring an unbelievable lineup this year.

This week's episode spotlights Scott Haslam, Salt Lake City's modern-day Gatsby. By day, he manages a successful van outfitting and conversion business, but by night, he transforms into the mastermind behind the Ranger Sound Car—a literal tank converted into a mobile DJ booth that hosts unforgettable house music parties with world-class artists. Having experienced these events firsthand, I can attest they're absolutely electrifying.

Join our community, enter our giveaways, and come celebrate with us at Flanker on the 19th. The leaves may be starting to change, but our energy is only heating up!

What is up everybody and welcome back to another Tuesday update. It is me, the host of the Small Lake City podcast, eric Nilsson, and have a handful of updates for you. So first, hope you made it to the Greek festival this past weekend. I went on Friday and ate probably my body weight in rice, gyros and baklava. Such a good time, such a great cultural event that's been going on for as long as I can remember.

Um, also hope you guys have enjoyed the most recent episode with mallory craycroft's dr. Mallory craycroft did that uh, founder of uplift for her a great conversation about, I mean, women's health, what she's trying to accomplish in utah. Um, but if you haven't listened to the episode from two weeks ago with Liddy Huntsman also a great one. She's someone who has a lot of experience in communications. She did stand-up comedy and just a great conversationalist. So great episode with her.

Also, the live event is coming up next Friday, september 19th, at eight at Flanker. So make sure to check the show notes to get your tickets, because you don't want to not have space or have to pull up a chair and I'm working on some fun surprises to make it worthwhile for everybody that comes, putting together a little raffle that you can enter to win some great prizes, from nomadic backpacks to Minky Couture, blankets, to gift cards to some of your favorite places and gift bags.

And in case you like live music, and especially country music, there is a giveaway going on on Instagram, tiktok and YouTube right now where you can win weekend passes to Red West Country Music Festival, and one of the best ways to enter the giveaway is to buy a ticket to the live party. So if you want to go to Red West and you're planning on going to the live event, you might as well go enter. So yeah, that will be going for the next week. I'm pumped for Red West. I was there last year.

Speaker 1: 4:05

The lineup this year is unreal, so don't sleep on it, and you might as well do it for free and enter the giveaway, but also want to announce this week's guest. So this week's guest is Scott Haslam. So by day Scott owns a consortium of different van outfitting, van rentals and van conversions. But by night he owns and operates the Ranger Sound Car, hosts some late night parties to bring people together and enjoy some house music, as people tend to do. I've been to more than a handful of the Ranger Soundcar parties and they are an absolute blast.

Speaker 1: 4:45

He essentially has converted a tank to be a DJ booth and flown in some DJs from around the world to make sure that we have some of the best artists and best times possible. He truly is a modern day Gatsby of sorts. So that will be releasing this weekend. So make sure to check out for that. But if not, enjoy some cooling weather and watch some leaves start to change, because the fall is coming, thankfully, but hopefully it's not too quick because I'm not yet ready for winter. So I'll see you this weekend with Scott Haslam and I will definitely see you next week at the live event at Flanker. See you there.
