    A Spicy Conversation with Blackwell Smith

    Blackwell Smith is on a mission to improve the flavor of your food with really great (and really fresh spices). AND he's on a mission to help people learn how to cook with his YouTube channel. Better yet - he does a great Jackie Gleason (Buford T. Justice) impression! In this podcast he shares his expertise. And we laugh. A lot. You might want to listen just before lunch or dinner, because you're going to be hungry afterwards. Fry Your Chickens and Blackwell Smith are not responsible for any poor decisions you make should you decide to make the punch we discussed in this episode.

    Caring for your customers and employees with Jamie Knight

    Jamie Knight is President of The Knight Team - a real estate agency in Port Clinton / Marblehead / Catawba. He is a great guy and a great real estate agent. In this episode we sat down and discussed his philosophies of leadership, real estate and of course... rubber chickens. Quote from the episode (Phil couldn't remember): "When I left the dining room after sitting next to Mr. Gladstone, I thought he was the cleverest man in England. But after sitting next to Mr. Disraeli, I thought I was the cleverest woman in England". - Jennie Jerome (mother of Wintston Churchill) Links: The Knight Team: https://tktrealtors.com/ Jamie's YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@LivinginVacationland Jamie on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamieknightre/

    Rob Hunter and Amy Yackowski join me to discuss super heroes, Mexico and Sea Lion farts

    Among other things... Here's what I love about husband and wife Rob and Amy. The conversation effortlessly flows from Rob and his team being chased out of Mexico by a Crown Vic to Super Hero powers to teams, to rubber chickens, to... yep... sea lion farts. This conversation really has it all.

    Amy Ruddell's conferences are almost as awesome as she is!

    I have spoken at Amy Ruddell's events throughout the US and Canada. And every time I've had a blast. Amy is an incredible conference organizer and an incredible human. She makes sure everyone has a great time (well we do talk about an exception... but it wasn't her fault). And that's why people keep coming back. We talk about work, Bridgerton, Game of Thrones, the Toronto Zoo Monorail, and of course her incredible Cocker Spaniel Teddy. It was great fun!

    Why Jenn Bedell's Sneezes Are Like Bohemian Rhapsody and So Much More!

    When I invited Jenn and Tom Bedell back for a second episode I had one rule. We couldn't do anything that wasn't completely silly. For the most part we stuck with that rule. We talked about geese (the sons of bitches of the animal kingdom), rules for dry January, and why a clipboard carrying duck is trustworthy. We heard from Darcy (but we had to censor her language). We discussed whether it would be better to have fingers for toes or toes for fingers. And then we really had some nonsensical discussions. If you learn anything of professional value on this podcast we failed. It was a blast. You'll enjoy this one for sure!
