James Meery ,

Engaging, interesting podcast

I found this podcast to be very practical, interesting, entertaining and well put together. It was filled great insights into entrepreneurship and what it takes to start a business, and it was very surprising to hear hardships overcome along the way. Even a bit emotional. If you are thinking of starting a business, running one, or just enjoy rags to riches stories, you will find this pod to be well worth a subscribe I think.
