The episode with Ravin, Al, and Austin was fantastic! They really went into detail about the issues facing Chicago. They provided logical suggestions on what improvements can be made to help the city we all love to get back on track and for future stability and success.
Absolutely love the podcast guys! Great behind the scenes stories from legendary entrepreneurs. And thanks for tying in a bit of Americana. First generation American here and I still think the American dream is possible. Thanks for providing real value here.!!!
