Business NoBS

Business NoBS is a show about what it's really like to start a business, only, we're not interviewing the founders of Facebook, Twitter and co. Instead, we're speaking to startup founders just like you, without the BS. Hosted by Eddie Whittingham, who recently sold his first startup business to a NASDAQ listed company, the series shines a light on what it's really like to be at the helm of a startup company. You'll hear all about the struggles, failures and occasional successes of everyday startup founders, without the Hollywood filter; ranging from topics such as mental health, the transition from being an employee to the CEO of a one man band and all the the way through to selling a business.
