          • Blue Plate Special: Our 100th Episode

            Jill and Brad made it. They've talked to over 200 business owners over the lifetime of the podcast. They've yelled at each other a lot. They've shouted at you a lot. And their extraordinary producer, Lightning Atkinson, recounts several great moments for us all. You'll laugh. You'll cry. And then you should pay Jill and Brad 5% of whatever you make because they said so.
