Customer Reviews
Interesting name
Great stuff
Engaging, Entertaining, Exceptional
These young brothers are all three! Their level of thought-provoking insight, genuine curiosity and emotional intelligence is truly an inspiration. And, they manage to “keep it 100” at the same time. Their book recommendations are always on point!
What an inspiring and thoughtful show
This has been my go-to morning podcast since it started. The conversations inspire me to read and re-read the books shared. I appreciate the care and thought that Jan and Miles put into preparing the questions. Thanks to all your guests as well for their generous gifts!
