John S. Is such underrated entrepreneur! His insights on business is out of this world.

Just found out about your channel. Thank you for the amazing content Tom!

100% the flavor is grape

How is beef jerky any different than a cookie? Pretty sure he’s mentioned they are working on a beef jerky as well.

Don Tom has a sit down with GodFather Shahidi talks about boss moves. 🗣⚫️◼️ Edited; thx autocorrect 🙄

Great episode!

Nobody does it like Nelkboys does 💪

Great podcast thank you

Let's go, John 🐐💪💯

58:51 Dave Portnoy

Ask Dave if he thinks he is the most underpaid person in media/sports ever? He sold both times for a lower valuation than what everyone said (he will disagree cuz he is humble about them) and he always provides more value in as deals than barstool is getting paid imo. He also should have a higher salary considering barstool and now Penn would take a huge hit if he left.

This video popped up on my suggest spot, you got yourself a new sub, I’ve had followed John since Nelk days.

Interview Dave portnoy. Ask him who he thinks the best talker scout ever is in media/sports… it’s him because he finds all the big names before they are big. Other companies have big names but they didn’t start with them.

THIS is good, talk about some motivation to get out there and do the damned thing!!

Pls put time stamps in large podcasts. It really helps
