Heart Of It
Heart of It is a heart-focused conversation series born from Scott Bennett’s life-saving heart transplant in the spring of 2023. After surviving that experience, Scott was inspired to seek out meaningful conversations, moments he calls “heartbeat moments” that allow his new heart to shine a spotlight on extraordinary guests.
Each episode features people he knows well and others he’s meeting for the first time, diving into pop culture, sports, education, and mission-driven work. Together, they explore what inspires them, the impact of their journeys, and the experiences shaping their lives. Along the way, listeners also learn a little more about what makes Scott’s new heart beat...authenticity, curiosity, and deep gratitude at the center of every conversation.
The episodes will leave you smiling and sometimes crying. The conversations are real, the exchanges filled with connection, and the topics vary; you never know what you might learn, but one thing is certain: there is a whole lot of heart that drives this series.

EP6: Jon Had Breakfast, Scott Got a Belt, and Sam Eppler is Running for Congress
In this episode, Jon and Scott discuss being celebrated, disagree on the definition of "inertia," and decide that doing anything at a high level is hard. They’re joined this week by guest Sam Eppler—a 28-year-old Dallasite whose list of accomplishments includes being the youngest principal in all of Dallas ISD. (Not to mention he's currently campaigning to represent TX-24 in Congress.)
