October 21, 2018 04:00 - 18 minutes - 17.2 MB

Recently at a mastermind, the chick who organized it gave me a magnificent compliment, when she said: “You’re like a crotchety old guy in a young man’s body.” Agreed.

Today’s podcast concludes my 4-part “Mount Rushmore” (hat tip to the great Brian Kurtz for the analogy) of people who get most of the credit (or blame…) for any success I’ve had. The first 3 were Matt Furey, Gary Bencivenga, and Ken McCarthy. All of which I’ve been fortunate enough to get testimonials from. This 4th one, I won’t be able to get one from. Why?
