  • Great show

    I just started listening to these guys a few weeks ago, and I can’t stop. It’s one thing to have a podcast that’s just people talking about their craft, it’s an entirely different to have one that also teaches you about the ins and outs of running a business. Thank you, Brian, Brian, and Pickle, keep up the great work. Also, don’t listen to the haters Pickle, Green is Good!
