Yes, We Are Open!

While not a Canadian resident, I find this podcast to be informative and entertaining, bringing light to businesses that are often overlooked and overshadowed by big name retailers. It brings the human side of these businesses struggles during the pandemic and other times of stress, showing how they persevered and were made stronger. Al’s easy tone and interview style bring a high level of professionalism to the format. I hope to hear about more stories of hope and triumph from this series.

I’m neither a business owner nor a Canadian resident but I thoroughly enjoyed this podcast. It’s incredibly educational & inspiring in easy to digest 20-25min episodes. Al does an incredible job introducing the company and telling their unique story that really gives the listener a sense on what makes the business owners and employees tick and what the company culture is. He treads the fine line of covering a lot of ground but keeps things concise.
