[Jan 20, '26] Rob Johnston ‘08 ; Candidate interviews w/ Jen Tyll ‘01 & Jeff Griffen ‘04.

Week 3 of 2026, and we are hitting our stride. Chris and John talk a little about their Live Sheehy Lexus pod with Bill Wagner, the coaches from NAAA and Longtime USNA and AA&F supporter Paul LaRochelle. We also chat about the official end to the College Football season (Congrats, Indiana) and how Navy will remain relevant in this landscape as a football program and as an institution. Our alumni interview is a special conversation about entrepreneurship. Rob Johnston ‘08 has a simple LinkedIn profile title - “Technology Entrepreneur.” But he’s so much more than that. We discuss his origins at USNA, his time in the Marine Corps and how he made it big in the Cyber space. And we continue our interview series with our candidates in the Eastern and Central regions. Jen Tyll ‘01 is running in the Eastern region. Jeff Griffen ‘04 is running in the Central. Get to know them on the pod. That and more on America’s best Alumni Association Podcast. Beat Army.
