The Kash & Dash Show is where real conversations happen around business, entrepreneurship, real estate, and the people behind it all. Hosted by Ted Kaasch and Owen Dashner, this show goes deeper than the usual surface-level interview. We talk with investors, business owners, and high-level operators about the grind, the growth, the setbacks, the lessons, and the legacy they’re building. This is not just a deals podcast. It’s about the real person behind the business — what drives them, what they’ve learned, what they’re still figuring out, and what success has actually cost them along the way. Each week, you’ll hear honest interviews, unfiltered conversations, and the kind of stories you usually do not hear in a traditional business or real estate show. Grind. Growth. Legacy.

    #321: The Kash and Dash Show: Unscripted

    In this episode of The Kash & Dash Show Unscripted, Ted Kaasch and Owen Dashner recap a packed week coming off the REIA Mastery Series with Fernando Angelucci, where self-storage, seller financing, deal structure, and real estate strategy were front and center. Owen shares a real estate wake-up call after getting a surprise phone call about a seller-financed duplex loan that had ballooned without him realizing it. What started as an awkward “did you send the final check?” conversation turned into a lesson on tracking loans, knowing your balloon dates, staying organized, and using relationships with bankers and insurance pros to solve problems fast. Ted and Owen also talk about the power of AI for business owners, including how quickly it can build research and spreadsheets that used to take hours or days. They recap the self-storage event, discuss the upcoming REIA Mastery event on legal wholesaling, and look ahead to BiggerPockets Conference in Orlando. This episode is a mix of real estate lessons, business talk, conference FOMO, and the normal random Unscripted chaos you expect from Ted and Owen.

    #320: The 15% Interest Mistake That Nearly Crushed the Deal

    In this episode of The Kash and Dash Show, hosts Ted Kaasch and Owen Dashner sit down with Dalton Daeges for a real conversation about what it actually looks like to build businesses, buy real estate, and learn the hard way. Dalton shares how he got started flipping houses while still working a W-2 job, how his partnership with Neil grew into Beard Bros Build Co., and why showing up early, doing the work, and bringing value first made all the difference. He also breaks down how he moved into “boring businesses,” including Concrete Delivered and Precast Solutions, and what he has learned from operating companies that most people would never think twice about. The episode also gets into one of Dalton’s toughest lessons: a 12-unit deal in Lincoln that looked great on paper but turned into a brutal reminder that due diligence matters. Between high-interest debt, missed expectations, capital calls, and writing a painful check years later, Dalton explains what went wrong and what investors need to watch out for before jumping into a deal. Ted, Owen, and Dalton also talk about contractors, partnerships, family, business stress, DSCR lending, gold mining, and the challenge of building something meaningful without losing sight of what matters at home. If you are an investor, business owner, or someone trying to build wealth while figuring it out as you go, this episode is full of real lessons, honest mistakes, and a few stories that probably should not be repeated at the dinner table.

    #319: The Kash and Dash Show: Unscripted

    On this episode of The Kash & Dash Show – Unscripted, hosts Ted Kaasch and Owen Dashner are back with another episode full of real stories, bad luck, business lessons, and complete chaos. Ted kicks things off with a vacation story that turned into a rental car nightmare. After a long road trip, strict Airbnb rules, and a much-needed cigar lounge stop, he came back to a brand-new rental car with a massive dent. What could have turned into a $3,000 bill got saved by a quick call to a local dent repair connection. That leads Ted and Owen into the bigger question: when you damage someone’s car, do you own it or disappear like a clown? They share parking lot stories, rental car problems, and why having the right people in your network can save you a pile of money. Owen also breaks down his trip to the Savannah Bananas game in Lincoln, including 85,000 fans, strange baseball rules, baby races, flying baseballs, ruined shorts, and one guy who absolutely should have handed over the ball. The guys also get into real estate wins and headaches, including a refinance that dropped debt service by $7,500 per month, high-end cash buyer negotiations, deal retrades, and why $300,000 is still very real money no matter how big the deal is. This is exactly what Kash & Dash Unscripted is built for: real stories, business lessons, dumb situations, and a few laughs that probably should have been edited out but weren’t. Subscribe to The Kash & Dash Show on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts. The best gift you can give us is sharing this episode with someone who would appreciate the chaos.

    #318: Darin Zuhlke | 126 Units, Family Legacy, and Doing Business Right

    In this episode of The Kash and Dash Show, hosts Ted Kaasch and Owen Dashner sit down with Darin Zuhlke, a full-time real estate investor with 126 units and nearly $20 million in assets under ownership. Darin shares how he went from growing up on a family farm to building a real estate business across eastern Nebraska. The conversation covers creative finance, business credit, private money, multifamily investing, flips, rent-to-own deals, and why rental properties are often better for long-term wealth than quick monthly income. But this episode goes way beyond the numbers. Darin opens up about burnout, isolation, drifting away from his core values, hiring help, building a team, strengthening his marriage, and learning that growth means nothing if it costs you your purpose. He also shares the story behind buying a large family home in Omaha, creating a legacy for his family, and why community matters more than most investors realize. This is a real conversation about business, faith, family, leadership, and doing things differently in an industry that can pressure people to cut corners. If you are building a business, chasing financial freedom, or trying to grow without losing yourself in the process, this episode is worth the listen.

    #317: The Kash and Dash Show: Unscripted

    In this episode of The Kash and Dash Show Unscripted, hosts Ted Kaasch and Owen Dashner are back with another wild mix of real life, real estate problems, business decisions, and the kind of stories that make you question why anyone owns boats, pools, Airbnbs, or commercial buildings. Owen kicks things off with an update on his missing wedding ring, which somehow ended up stuck inside a baseball glove. From there, the conversation turns into boat ownership regret, pool problems, septic tank headaches, and the strange process of trying to figure out if a future pool can even fit in the backyard. Ted shares what is happening during College World Series week with his Airbnb, including slower bookings, price cuts, and a surprise sidewalk replacement that started while guests were staying at the house. Not exactly the five-star welcome basket. The guys also dig into a real commercial real estate decision involving an office building, a vacant floor, a possible state tenant, tenant improvements, and whether taking a lower rent number makes sense when the space could otherwise sit empty for years. They also talk about business coaching, motivation, childhood money lessons, material things, development projects, and what it feels like when years of tough deals finally start showing progress. This one has everything: wedding rings, pools, septic systems, Airbnb chaos, office leasing, business mindset, and enough side stories to prove once again that “unscripted” is not just a cute name.

    #316: Dwan Twyford — The $22K Deal That Changed Her Life

    In this episode of The Kash and Dash Show, hosts Ted Kaasch and Owen Dashner sit down with Dwan Bent-Twyford, known as the Queen of Short Sales, for a raw, funny, and powerful conversation about real estate, survival, faith, family, and betting on yourself. Dwan shares how she went from growing up in small-town Ohio, working factory and restaurant jobs, becoming a single mom, and facing a major life setback, to knocking on foreclosure doors with a baby on her hip and making $22,000 on her very first real estate deal. From there, her story gets even crazier. She talks about learning rehabs the hard way, using a Home Depot credit card to get started, building a real estate career with no fancy background, doing more than 2,000 deals, writing books, becoming nationally known in the short sale space, and eventually helping revitalize downtown Clinton, Iowa with her husband Bill Twyford. Dwan also opens up about Bill’s serious health battle, the decision their family had to make, and how that experience shaped their outlook on risk, faith, family, and taking action before it’s too late. This episode is blunt, emotional, hilarious, and full of real lessons for anyone trying to build something bigger than where they started. Listen now to hear Dwan’s story and why sometimes the best move is betting on yourself before anyone else does.

    #315: The Kash and Dash Show: Unscripted

    In this episode of The Kash and Dash Show Unscripted, hosts Ted Kaasch and Owen Dashner are back with another real, random, and brutally honest conversation about business, real estate, and life being a complete circus sometimes. Ted and Owen kick things off with a throwback debate about the best cereals from the 80s and 90s, including Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Captain Crunch, Frosted Flakes, and a few that probably should have never made the shelf. Then Owen shares the story of a major real estate deal that fell apart the night before closing after months of work, multiple inspections, and a payday he was counting on. He talks through the frustration, the mental reset, and how he had to rally instead of letting the situation bury him. From there, the chaos keeps rolling. Owen gives an update on finding a new house, discovering a basement full of high-end bourbon, dealing with septic inspections, water witching, lost credit cards, a missing wedding ring, and a boat storage nightmare that turned into a lesson in terrible customer service. Ted also shares a wild story about a client with a massive video game collection, plus how Omaha REIA tested direct mail with REI Print Mail and brought in new members from the campaign. The guys also preview their upcoming interview with Dwan Twyford and talk about the REIA Mastery Series self-storage event with Fernando Angelucci. This one has real estate, bad luck, bourbon, business lessons, nostalgia, and the kind of life chaos that makes The Kash and Dash Show what it is.

    #314: The Deal That Started an 8-Year Partnership with Brandon Tauber

    In this episode of The Kash and Dash Show, hosts Ted Kaasch and Owen Dashner sit down with Brandon Tauber for a conversation that has been five years in the making. Brandon shares his journey from college soccer and business school at Indiana University to consulting, trading at the Chicago Board of Trade, and eventually realizing the high-pressure world of trading was no longer the life he wanted. After years of watching markets, managing risk, and dealing with the mental grind of trading, Brandon made the move from Chicago to Omaha and started looking for his next chapter. That path eventually led him into real estate investing, house flipping, business partnerships, and private lending. The conversation covers how Brandon met Owen after losing a deal to him, how that one phone call turned into years of business together, and what he learned from flipping houses, handling losses, working through bad deals, building trust in partnerships, and adapting when the market changed. Ted, Owen, and Brandon also talk about brutal real estate lessons, hoarder houses, termite damage, deals that went sideways, the current flipping market, and how Liquid Lending became a major focus for Brandon and the team. This episode is about career changes, burnout, real estate, risk, partnerships, and the kind of lessons you only learn after getting worked a few times.
