One bad apple in a good bunch
I've been listening since to Operators since it came out - the content lives up to the name. 3 of the 4 guys are true operators, people who are in the weeds of their business and want to keep pushing growth. Sean is exceptional at spotting trends across DTC. He always leaves me with a new thought to explore. He's the true "star" of the show with a big personality - but the ideas and insight to match. Mike has really pushed my thinking on people and leadership. Every time he speaks, I know I'm going to get a measured, respected view on the topic. Matt continually shares a nuanced perspective - both his successes and failures. He's humble yet aware of his own strengths and offers up his insight when appropriate. Jason is an issue. He goes on long monologues about how successful he is, how the problems they're discussing don't apply to him or his *aMaZinG*, crazy-margin business HexClad. He spent almost an entire episode name dropping someone he sat next to at a dinner. He has no interest in offering any true value to the listener. I reached a breaking point this past episode where he boasted about being drunk on the episode. Maybe because he's not a founder he doesn't understand the pain and blood that goes into getting a business off the ground and keeping it healthy - but it’s gotten to the point where I try to skip through anytime he begins talking because I don't ever want to approach my life or business the way he suggests.Read full review »

I really want to like this podcast but it’s so unbelievably boring. Really not actionable or tactical at all which could be the saving grace

These guys provided some really interesting and actionable insights, and they were a blast to listen to. Will definitely be adding this one to my rotation.
