Ep.116 - People Aren’t Broke, They’re Maxed Out

January has a way of telling the truth. In this episode, Joe and Jerry dig into why so many people feel broke even when the economy looks “fine” on paper. From maxed-out credit cards and tightening consumer spending to a housing market that feels stuck and businesses navigating slow seasons, this is a real conversation about what’s actually happening beneath the surface. They talk loyalty versus discounts, why slow months are when business owners have to lean in harder, and how discipline, relationships, and adaptability matter more than ever when margins get tight.

Ep.117 - Buried in Snow and Bleeding Cash

Snow days feel harmless until you’re the one running payroll. In this episode of Between 2 Bridges, amidst a historic winter storm, we’re measuring how much snow really costs small businesses. Lost revenue. Employees clocked in with no customers. Rising utility bills. And no clear path to relief. We talk about how prolonged snow and subzero temperatures ripple through restaurants, retail, service businesses, and startups. Why being open can actually be worse than being closed. How disaster relief programs exist but rarely reach businesses in time. And what happens when city infrastructure, budgeting decisions, and weather collide. This isn’t complaining about the cold. It’s an honest conversation about survival, risk, and the reality small business owners face when everything stops but the bills don’t. If you’ve ever owned a business, supported one, or wondered why snow days hit harder than people think, this episode doesn’t leave you out in the cold.

Ep.113 - Fake Money, Real Costs

Inflation isn’t a headline. It’s a daily reality. From rising software fees and utilities to fuel costs and junk charges that quietly stack up, small business owners are feeling the squeeze from every direction. In Episode 113, the guys unpack what it actually looks like when costs never go down, why raising prices is so uncomfortable, and how business owners are forced to adapt just to stay afloat. Along the way, they connect the dots between fake money in digital worlds and very real decisions in the real one, all while reflecting on social media, personal branding, and heading into 2026 with eyes wide open.

Ep.115 - Stability Can Quietly Kill Progress

Change is uncomfortable, especially when stability has worked for a long time. In this episode, the guys unpack the end of the Mike Tomlin era in Pittsburgh and what nearly two decades of consistency really delivered. Always competitive, rarely collapsing, but increasingly stuck in the middle. That same question carries over to Jerry’s world, as he opens up about a major shift in his business after 19 tax seasons and the toll that doing everything himself quietly took on his company, his family, and his sanity. From the Steelers’ definition of “the standard” to the difference between loyalty and growth, this conversation explores when playing it safe stops serving you. It’s about recognizing burnout, redefining success, and understanding that sometimes progress requires letting go of what once worked. Whether you run a business, manage people, or feel stuck in something that looks stable from the outside, this episode is a reminder that standing still can be the riskiest move of all.
