We've done plenty of episodes telling you how a podcast can benefit you and help you build business.   This is just an example of 3 people having fun on an episode. Over the course of a Sunday afternoon I had several people stop by my office just to kind of hang out and watch football...Well, Pam and David were the "lucky" winners who were chosen to do this episode with me. We ended up hearing David's GREAT dating stories.   I think the best story is the one where he tells us about "the prettiest girl in Sears".    Pam gave both of these lonely single men some of her wisdom as David was telling his stories. Let us know what you think.  Should we start a podcast feed featuring these stories?   Welcome to "Your Podcasters" hosted by Mark "Friedo" Friedman, a professional producer with over 30 years of experience in the spoken word format.
