  • Can’t hear it anymore

    Love this show and have listened for a few years. For some reason over the past few months it’s become a whisper show and the audio is too low to hear while doing any type of physical labor.

  • If your IN this industry, this needs to be IN your ear.

    I caught one of these podcasted bacaue I knew someone on it. After listening to one episode, I binged them all. Josh has a way blending personal growth and industry topics that are easy to relate and have value. A chilled elixir of Joe Rogan meets Marty Grunder with a side of David Goggins if you will. Definitely worth a listen if you recognize one of these name.
