This is the story of how Pomodo was founded. We follow Dylan Pugh's journey as he tries to take an idea during lockdown of 2020 into what he hopes will be a successful sports & lifestyle podcast network. It's a warts and all account of what it's really like to start a business - charting the emotional highs and lows, the difficult decisions, the awkward conversations and the raw reality that this is the biggest decision of his life... And the best thing about this - we have no idea how this is going to end! So follow us on this wild journey into the unknown - we will be releasing new episodes charting our progress each week. Please like, follow, subscribe, comment, rate, review, tell your nan etc... we really appreciate your support. And Pomodo has a few other podcasts that you can listen to too - the first one is Couples Quarantine by James Haskell and Chloe Madeley, so please give that a listen. Thank you for listening to Pomodo and for supporting us on this journey.
