Josh - you aren’t the smartest in the room. Quit boasting about all of what you know and your accomplishments and let the people on your show TALK. Shawn Ryan is successful because he is talking less than 5% of the show. Ask more questions and let them speak instead of always adding to what they say, f me.
Insightful and impactful conversations, always great to tune in. Josh is a treat to listen to!
