It’s Still a Business: From Non-Profit Myths to Investor Reality

From Pineapple Pizza to Public Trust

In this special episode, Dan Nottingham interviews AmICredible — not a person, but an evidence-based credibility platform. The conversation starts with pineapple on pizza, then moves through claims about science, AI hallucinations, media trust, smartphones in schools, religion in public classrooms, and public health communication during the pandemic. This is not a product demo. It is an evidence-based conversation about the claims we repeat, the confidence we mistake for credibility, and the importance of asking: what does the evidence actually support? About the Guest AmICredible is an evidence-based credibility platform that analyzes individual claims and evaluates how well they are supported by evidence. Designed for an age of misinformation, AI-generated content, and declining trust, AmICredible helps people distinguish between what sounds credible and what the evidence actually supports.

They explore why non-profits are often misunderstood — not as volunteer efforts, but as real businesses that require strategy, revenue thinking, and disciplined execution. The conversation moves into what actually matters in early investor meetings (hint: it’s not your slide deck), why passion is essential but not sufficient when building a company, and how today’s AI tools are lowering the barrier to creating practical products — like systems that clean and organize contact data for mission-driven organizations. It’s a candid, experience-driven discussion about clarity, credibility, and what it really takes to turn an idea into something sustainable.

AI for Business - what it is and what it isn't

In this episode of The Credible Podcast, Dan Nottingham is joined by Nate McKie, Senior Executive AI Advisor at World Wide Technology, for a grounded conversation about what AI really means for businesses today. Nate cuts through the hype surrounding generative AI and explains why many organizations struggle to see real value: siloed experimentation, poor data foundations, and a lack of leadership-driven strategy. Rather than replacing people, Nate argues that AI’s greatest potential lies in making employees more effective — unlocking institutional knowledge, improving decision-making, and augmenting human creativity. The discussion explores practical use cases that actually deliver ROI, why fears of mass job replacement are misplaced, and how overselling AI has led to wasted investment and confusion on both sides — among executives and employees alike. Nate also shares thoughtful insights on AI-assisted software development, governance, and why foundational skills like systems thinking, collaboration, and judgment matter more than ever. This episode is for leaders, technologists, and professionals who want a realistic, credible understanding of AI — not what it’s marketed to be, but what it can genuinely do today, and how to use it responsibly. About the Guest Nate McKie is the Senior Executive AI Advisor for World Wide Technology. He has loved computers since he was a child; his father worked at Radio Shack, and he was constantly there playing on the machines and learning about programming.
