Awesome podcast with amazing guests

Tom Tona and Juliet have put together one of the best podcasts for lawyers seeking to better their practices that you can find. Tom is the “real deal” - you can tell he is is an authentic guy who doesn’t just discuss the nuts and bolts of growing a law firm but also discusses how to improve yourself as a person. Tons of value in each episode. I am a personal injury lawyer in Staten Island and love listening to a fellow New Yorker tell it like it is. I listen to every show during my drive to the office and start my week with a new idea to implement. Thanks Tom!
