All Value, No Filler

Listened to 2 shows so far and my thumbs are on fire from all the gold nuggets I’ve been plugging into notes. Entertaining host with tons of applicable knowledge who talks the good, bad, and ugly without a sugar coat! Keep it up!

Awesome Podcast Today!

Haley Evans from Triumph Pay was very informative. I love the review of the headlines! Very helpful in the morning!

MatTampaFL ,

Terrible

He might be knowledgeable about logistics, i wouldn’t know because the guy is terrible at making content. Listened to 10 minutes of a 30 minute show (an entire third of the show) and he was still talking about what the show was going to be about and never actually started the topic.
