Consumer VC lets you hear interviews with people otherwise wouldn’t get to learn from. Great content.
I highly enjoyed it!
As a CPG founder, CEO and passionate student of the space, I love Mike’s podcast. Mike always has top tier guests, asks insightful questions and delivers informative content. I’m thankful for the golden nuggets found in each episode. Highly recommend!
Mike does a great job bringing on an amazing variety of guests to talk about their companies, backgrounds, challenges, and advice. I’ve discovered new companies I was never aware of and learned a lot about a variety of industries that I never knew (ex. the distribution laws that vary between beer, wine and spirits).
