Rob Schad has his head screwed on straight - he realized at the age of 18 that college wasn't an effective means of doing what he wanted to do.

Jeremy Denniston has lived an interesting life as a "Cyclops". He was born blind, undergone nearly 20 surgeries, dropped out of college during his second semester, was fired at Target, worked at Apple at 22 years old, broke his back while drunk, and now he owns the most eclectic coffee shop in Bellevue. That coffee shops name - the Cyclops Cafe! P.S. I originally met Jeremy 2 years ago when he worked at the Tesla store - he made a memorable impression at me but I never saw him again after that... until I was "pounding pavement" with my organic tea product in Bellevue last week and happened to walk into the coffee shop he founded. As they say, the rest is history! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/the-fishbowl/support
