The Witte Museum's 100-Year Celebration with CEO Dr. Michelle Cuellar Everidge
The Witte Museum is turning 100, and CEO Dr. Michelle Cuellar Everidge joins Jeff Webster to share what makes this San Antonio institution so much more than a museum. From its founding by a schoolteacher in 1926 to 350,000 annual visitors today, the Witte has been a cornerstone of curiosity and community for a century.
Dr. Everidge explains what the Witte actually is: a museum of nature, science, and culture that tells the deep history of Texas across disciplines. Whether it's dinosaurs, Indigenous foodways, or fine art, every exhibit connects the natural world to the people who've shaped it.
She also shares her own personal journey, from field trips to the Witte as a San Antonio kid to earning a PhD and eventually becoming CEO. And with the centennial celebration arriving October 8th, she's inviting the whole city to come see what's been built and what's coming next.

Boeing's Best-Kept Secret: Tyler Schroeder on 5,000 Employees, World-Class MRO, and San Antonio's Aerospace Future
Boeing has over 5,000 employees in San Antonio. Most people have no idea.
In this episode of Greater 210, Jeff Webster sits down with Tyler Schroeder, Boeing's Senior Manager of Government Operations, to talk about what the company is actually doing at Port San Antonio and why it matters for the city's future. Boeing operates the largest government maintenance, repair, and overhaul facility in the entire world right here on the former Kelly Air Force Base, working on everything from F-18 fighter jets to the B-52 bomber to the US executive fleet.
Tyler also makes the case that these are not just jobs. They are generational careers that pay six figures and reset the trajectory for entire families. He talks about how Boeing is building that pipeline through partnerships with Alamo Colleges, Hallmark University, and St. Philip's College, and why the Boeing Center at Port San Antonio is rethinking workforce development from the ground up.

Haven for Hope CEO Rhonda Mundhenk on Homelessness, Human Resilience, and What's Next for San Antonio
Every city pays for homelessness. The question is whether you pay for the consequences or invest in solving it.
In this episode of Greater 210, host Joanna Weidman sits down with Rhonda Mundhenk, President and CEO of Haven for Hope, to talk about what it really takes to address homelessness at scale. Rhonda brings a career in healthcare law and underserved populations to one of San Antonio's most important nonprofits, and she makes the case that Haven's model is less about charity and more about smart community investment.
They cover Haven's 15-year track record, including 52,000 people served and a 65% rate of clients who never returned to any homeless service provider in Bexar County. Rhonda also explains what makes Haven a national model, why the business community's involvement is essential, and what the Chamber's new homelessness task force could mean for San Antonio's next chapter.
