Recently, Legendary Coach Lou Holtz welcomed business leader and Eagle Scout Dave Alexander on his podcast for an inspiring conversation about faith, resilience, and rebuilding American culture. Dave shared his remarkable journey from performing magic shows to building Caljet, one of the nation’s largest independent petroleum distributors, all while staying grounded in Scouting values, personal integrity, and servant leadership.
During the episode, they explored the lessons Scouting instills for life and leadership, the importance of strong moral values in business, and how faith, hard work, and personal responsibility can help restore American culture. Dave also reflected on his commitment to youth development, philanthropy, and the challenges of running a values-based business in today’s political climate.
This episode was a powerful reminder that success without character is meaningless and that meaningful change begins with those willing to lead by example. For anyone seeking inspiration and timeless wisdom on leadership, perseverance, and giving back, this conversation is a must-listen.
