In Episode 3 of Big Swing, Jeremy Funk and Corey Scott welcome Jake Corley for a wide-ranging conversation on entrepreneurship, risk-taking, and building in emerging markets.

Jake shares his journey from the Marine Corps to oil and gas software, to media and community building, and now to launching Corley Energy, a company focused on solving one of today’s biggest challenges: speed to power for AI infrastructure. The discussion dives into bias toward action, learning through failure, staying relentlessly curious, and why some of the hardest paths are often the most rewarding.

They explore the intersection of energy, AI, and data centers, what it takes to build something capital-intensive from the ground up, and how conviction, adaptability, and long-term vision shape true “big swings.” Along the way, they also reflect on networking, community, Idaho living, and why personal growth often comes from stepping into the uncomfortable.

This episode blends startup grit, strategic thinking, and real-world perspective on what it means to bet on yourself when the stakes are high.

In Episode 2 of Big Swing, Jeremy Funk and Corey Scott welcome their first guest, Tim Lozier, for a conversation that is equal parts meaningful and practical. The episode begins with a tribute to Jeremy’s late co-host and close friend, Tim Lozier, and the full-circle moment of having another Tim Lozier as the first guest of the new show.

From there, the conversation shifts into the evolving reality of B2B marketing: buyers doing most of their research before they ever talk to sales, the move from keyword searching to question-based discovery, and why go-to-market success now depends on real alignment between sales and marketing, plus strong collaboration with product and customer success.

Tim shares frameworks and examples for creating content that earns trust, avoids being overly pitchy, and supports the full buyer journey, including what happens after a deal stalls. They also talk about taking smart, “controlled” swings in marketing, and close with Super Bowl predictions and prop talk.

In the first episode of Big Swing, hosts Jeremy Funk and Corey Scott kick things off by introducing the show, the concept behind “big swings,” and why now was the right time to do this together.

They talk candidly about their podcasting journeys, career risk-taking, ownership mindset, and the personal and professional decisions that led them to where they are today, along with plenty of side conversations on sports and the personalities that shape how they approach business and life.

This episode sets the tone for what’s ahead, a mix of real experience, honest dialogue, and conversations that don’t fit neatly into one category.
