As the Dir of Dales for Pagely and one of the hosts of the show I’m not entirely impartial here but we’ve invested considerable effort to curate not just knowledgeable guests but all-around stellar human beings for this effort. The mission is to understand what’s worked for them and distill powerful, actionable lessons that listeners can then take and apply in their own lives and businesses. I see the content backlog and I feel super fortunate to have a role in bringing these conversations to people they can help.

We interview pillars of the Business of WordPress space, luminaries from peripherally-related technologies and accomplished domain experts who can help teach you powerful ideas to get ahead in business and in life.
