Tyrone Muse is the CEO of Visions Federal Credit Union. He's changing the culture within his organization and around the community one person at a time. If you've ever had the opportunity to meet Ty, you'll understand what I mean. If you haven't, you'll know before the end of this episode. Our conversation was as REAL as they get, as every word Ty speaks is genuine and truly comes from his heart.
I learned a great deal from Ty through our conversation, including the power of humility, the strength of honesty and the sheer importance of being yourself. We talk sports, finance, credit union jargon, mentorship, family and lots of Ty's favorite four letter words—like care, give and love.

Welcome to our 7th episode of American Real, where this week our guest is Al Downing, a former Major League Baseball player, who pitched in a golden area, back in the 1960s and 70s. As a young man, Al was signed by the most winningest team in all of sports, the NY Yankees and also played for the legendary Los Angeles Dodgers. My conversation with Al was as real as they come… it was also educational, uplifting, discussing baseball, what it was like growing up in the 50’s and how he wants to leave his mark on humanity. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Al as much as I did. The nostalgia brought me back to a time when life seemed to be simpler… where you’d look out for your neighbors like your own. I hope this episode helps each of see how important it is to be kind to one other. If you spend any length of time with Al Downing as I did, it’s something you’ll quickly see.
