Thanks for putting this roundup together, Steve. I found A LOT of new podcasts to try out.
You bet Brian! Thanks for contributing. 🙂
This is an awesome roundup! I’m actually listening to EOfire again now. They just changed up the format from a daily show to a twice-weekly show, and now they’re getting much more focused on specific business growth tactics instead of inspirational stories.
Thanks Bill! JLD does a great job.
Great list – honored to see my little show on this list with giants!
