    #6 - What Happened After We Told Our Story

    Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note. Eight months after the podcast was recorded, Kevin sits back down with Brendan to give us an update. The reaction went further than either of them expected, strangers stopping Kevin on the street, dealers around the country listening in their cars, and a new catchphrase he can't shake. Kevin also gets honest about a tougher year in the motor trade, why he's steering Kevin Egan Cars toward becoming a full new-car dealership, and what's next for H2O now that he's looking for someone to take it further than he can on his own. Episode 6 of The Kevin Egan Cars Story.
