VB's Pod

I sit down with my buddy Dan Trtanj to discuss how he got into starting his own CBD business, his military service, and just hang and catch up. We hope you enjoy!

In this episode I sit down with my buddy and insurance agent Dan Luigs. I expected this to be a quick pod about building his business but it went way more interesting directions and I am happy to share it with you.

I sit down with the very talented John Harder to discuss life in small business, how he got into photography and where he wants to go as his business continues to become more focused on what he loves. You can check him out at www.youtube.com/playlist?list

Rods got something to discuss which is an article he read about Steven Spielberg's daughter announcing her desire to be a sex worker. That topic turns into an hour going all over the place from sex work, to shifting attitudes and acceptance of different lifestyles. Great conversation and a great laughs is what this one is all about.

Ryan trolls me with more gas station coffee, discusses his new go to custom blend at QT, talk's coronavirus conspiracy theories, and both of us believe Libya serves a strategic purpose for America but our assistant Caleb doesn't get us the info in time so we fire him.

I was a guest on my friends podcast- and they asked me among other things about the evolution of VB Chocolate Bar- Upshot coffee. Along with sampling Kraut Juice and discussing fermentation and other fun stories from the last 20 years.

I sit down with my buddy Ryan Newman and talk about his journey from painting houses when I first met him to having a career in medical sales, a masters degree in healthcare, and active service for the guard. In this time he has moved to Alaska and back, gotten married, and started a family. All of this in a relatively short period of time.

I sit down with my close friend Todd Mueller to discuss rare childhood cancer he overcame, his beautiful wife and daughter, and how he has struggled to learn how to be a good partner to both of them while dealing with 2 emotionally devastating miscarriages. I thought it might be important to hear from a father's perspective how you survive and grow from loss and what that led their family to next.

I talk to my buddy Rod Lawrence about life in the suburbs of St. Charles.
