    Matt Cundill: Sounds Like A Plan

    Matt Cundill: Sounds Like A Plan

    This week's guest, Matt Cundill, is the owner and founder of the Soundoff Media Company. If that name sounds familiar, it's because they're the folks who handle production for our show. Matt speaks about how he's built and maintained the company, including finding gaps in the market and knowing when to transition to entrepreneurship. If you've recently been "restructured" out of a job in a declining industry (like Matt was with radio), he believes it's time to look at your transferable skills, make good use of your personal contacts, and find a way to carve out a new niche for yourself that's more suited to the modern world.
    Matt also discusses what he learned from his time in radio, as well as what's been hard to learn as he's moved away from traditional broadcasting. Though challenging at times, building his own company has been well worth the rewards.
    To work with Matt and his team, head to Soundoff.network. You should also listen to Matt's show, The Sound Off Podcast, if you're at all interested in radio or broadcasting. As always, you can follow Matt on Facebook and Instagram to connect with him and keep up with new episodes.

    Greg Hemmings: Once A Host, Always A Friend

    Greg Hemmings: Once A Host, Always A Friend

    Some of our older fans might remember Greg Hemmings from the early days of the Boiling Point. For those who don't know him, he and Dave started the podcast years ago, but Greg eventually decided to step away and pursue a different line of work- but not before introducing Dave to Emily. In this episode, Greg's back to fill us in on all the different projects he's done over the past several years, including many motivational speaking gigs, a rapidly growing filmography, and the start of his own production company, Hemmings House. He speaks about what led him to step away from the Boiling Point, what inspires his current work, and where he's going next. For the original fans who miss Greg, don't worry: This certainly won't be his last time appearing on the show. We love Greg, and we have no doubt he'll be back on again soon enough.
    To keep up with Greg, you can follow him on Instagram or LinkedIn, or check out his personal website.
