I finally get to air part 1 of my chat with Travis Chance.  We actually sat down over a month ago to chat about all things Travis....  But thanks to the internet being the internet, a good portion of the conversation was lost.

I had the privilege to sit down with my friend Sean Lashgari.  We spent a majority of the time talking about where his health has taken him in the last few years.  If you know Sean, and who doesn't, you know he has an insane amount of energy and an incredible work ethic so it is tough to hear what he is currently dealing with.  All I ask is you give him some good thoughts.  

Todays show is an interesting one, I get to sit down with a person who I consider to be the best retailer in the nation, Travis Severance.  We had a good chat about what the hell is happening in the industry as well as getting real about working with (and not with) each other over the years.  So sit back and put Travis in your ears for an hour.

If you have never heard of Madden football, sit back and learn why you may never want to start playing.    

Max Holliday is one of those guys everyone sees at the show. He's always willing to lend a hand wherever needed and seems to have worked everywhere.  Max has gone through some deep stuff in his time on this rock and has come out on the other end a better person for it.  So sit back and put Max and I in your ears for the next hour.  

I sat down with Ryan (Mitchell) in what was the most fun episode we have had thus far.  Lots of laughs and pure disappointment once I discover the list of must see films Ryan has not even thought about watching.  Buckle in and stick me in your ears.

I decided to start this thing with a good friend and co worker in multiple companies , Richard Dracass.  Richard gets shot out of a cannon with his candid discussion about some past employers.  Also, since this is my first episode, my audio makes me sound like I'm in a can.  Working out the details folks, trust me, it gets better once I figure out how to work my mic!
