“I love podcasts that inspire *and* give me something to do that improves my marketing that day. So not only are we dissecting the stories (and getting better at telling them) but also learning from them. Can’t wait for the next episode. 10/10 no notes.”

“Jay is the voice I always want in the back of my head. The way that he unpacks storytelling to make it really applicable is gold - he’s the first person to make storytelling feel achievable vs just something that you need to do.”

“Jay’s taken pod-ing to the next level, uncovering great stories and then deconstructing them and rebuilding them in real time.
If you want to influence or persuade, and if you want to amplify the impact of your stories, this pod might just be your new favourite pod.”

“Stories are more than what Pixar or Marvel make. And a lot of the principles that make movies great don’t really apply to the world of business and entrepreneurship. “How Stories Happen” fills that need and there’s no one better than Jay Acunzo to guide the path.”
