BRASS KNOBS AND BACK TALK

Business EN ↓ 9 episodes

You've knocked yourself right to the podcast where brass meets sass. We're talking antiques, vintage decor, real business talk, and the kind of family chaos you can't stage for social media. It's part flea market, part therapy session, part business masterclass-- with a healthy dose of deadpan humor and no-nonsense storytelling.
