Outstanding podcast

Mr Marston, your podcast are educational and entertaining (edutainment) and your insights have helped me in my career (until I retired in late 2022). I listen to you while driving or relaxing in porch enjoying a adult beverage (burboun or rye and a nice Perdomo). Thanks for your mentoring indirectly.

Very informative, fabulous voice

I have thoroughly enjoyed listening to Cam Marston’s What’s Working. These easy and soothing interviews are like talking with a friend- a friend with a knack at getting to the crux of the matter. Wonderful information, a delightful format, a perfect voice, and always informative. An Important podcast for the south- and really any part of the country that wants to know about business, customers, people, and how they interact by discussing what really is working!
