A one-of-a-kind podcast!

It’s so unbelievably rare to find a smart, authentic, real marketing podcast. This is it. Inspiring and a joy to listen to.

Kazanov ,

Too much talk

The podcast covers good topics. I find it very wordy. Lots of talk about nothing. Sometimes after an hours chapter I am still unsure what is the take away.

EugeneOregon ducks ,

A Realtor

Your 6 day course topic was amazing, but then again all your shows are very helpful.
I have above average decades on my birthday card. But Jumped in using gpt4 in the fall. I am learning so much from your shows.
