    Jake, these podcasts are amazing and the latest really resonates with me in terms of who I am and my why, which incidentally I don’t know due to lots of changes the last 5 years, including divorce, retirement, the loss of one of my brothers and more recently both my parents. Life goes on and these podcasts really help. Thank you

    I subscribed when I listened to the HexClad episode. I found it relevant, shared good story that is relatable and full of authenticity. However, the Liberty episode nearly pushed me to unsubscribe - vague, guarded and too much of holding cards to his chest. I’m glad I gave it another chance and listened to the Five Guys story. That was fantastic! I took a lot from it, I saved it and I hope to hear more of these honest, open and storytelling experiences that inspire and give relevance and good le... more
