Tim & Ryan are joined by team members Deidre Miles and Laura Rickheim to discuss the lessons learned from Dave Ramsey’s Entreleadership One-Day Event in Nashville. We also discuss unique hiring techniques, the Golden Rule, Egrets, and Ryan’s breath.

In this episode, Tim and Ryan give you tips to write your own book (while shamelessly promoting their own). We also discuss writing tools, transcription services, circa-1986 Alan Ruck, and … most importantly … Rylie Patrick.

Welcome to the least funny episode, thus far, of Funny Business. (Yeah, we know. We’ve been unfunny for the first eighteen episodes … so why start now?) But this may just be our most inspiring episode yet. Tim and Ryan unpack the events of the past week and discuss how to not go “dark” when darkness is seemingly all around. We also discuss advertising after a tragedy, the beauty of Montana, and dive bars featuring tiki statues, mermaids, and an 83-year-old organ players singing “I Love This Bar.”

Tim and Ryan wrote a book! Along with Tim’s (and Ryan’s honorary) sister, Lynn Peisker, Brand Your Own Business will be coming soon to an Amazon.com page near you. Fortunately, this podcast doesn’t last as long as it took to publish the book. Because who wants to listen to a 48-month-long podcast?!?

Tim recently spent twelve straight hours interviewing 29 people. We are happy to report that he survived the ordeal. We’re also happy to report that he learned a lesson or two about marketing during the process. Because that’s the topic of today’s episode of Funny Business. Well, that and Tim’s mom’s midnight Instagramming sessions.

It’s time for another Podcast-On-Wheels! Tim & Ryan talk travel tips, TSA, and the fine art of throat punching as they drive through downtown Milwaukee.

Tim and Ryan welcome a celebrity friend to this episode of Funny Business. Steve Falcone is a writer, professor, lover of life, and a beloved mentor to many, including the hosts of this podcast. He’s also the subject of a brand new best-selling book called BEING A DAD IS WEIRD: LESSONS IN FATHERHOOD FROM MY FAMILY TO YOURS written by his son, Ben Falcone. Ben is one-half of the funniest couple in Hollywood (the other being his wife, Melissa McCarthy. Maybe you’ve heard of her?). In this funny and touching book, Ben hilariously compares and contrasts his dad’s irreverent parenting style to his own. The book is laugh-out-loud funny … and so is Steve. Enjoy this far-too-short chat with a dear old friend. 

In this episode,  Ryan wins an award, Tim puts his hand in his pants, and both guys share other people’s advice to graduates because, frankly, they’re too lazy to come up with their own.

What do Alex Trebek, Degrassi Junior High, Tim Horton’s, and this podcast have in common? They’re 100% Canadian. Okay, well, the first three are true-blue Canucks. Tim is just visiting. Tim & Ryan host their first ever intercontinental episode of the Funny Business Podcast, where they uncover traits that business owners and, well, human beings around the globe should emulate. We also talk hockey, Molsons, Bob & Doug McKenzie, and the plural of Moose.

Get ready to laugh like never before as Tim & Ryan welcome their favorite … accountant? Lawyer and CPA Adrian Van Zelfden joins the Funny Business podcast to talk about hilarious topics such as taxes, bookkeeping, accrual, banker reconciliation, and embezzlement! Seriously, though, if you’re a business owner, you’ll glean some valuable free advice from the smartest man in the room.
