  • S1:E1 Mark Henderson on Made In Mississippi
    Mark Henderson is co-founder of Lazy Magnolia Brewing Company in the Kiln. To spite the adversities that you’ll hear about in the podcast, Mark and his wife brought something pretty unique and amazing to Mississippi. Craft Beer. This interview was done in their lab right off of the brewery floor, so you’ll hear some beeps from fork lifts, employees working in the background, and maybe Justin our engineer fall out of his chair. That happened.    Mark tells some powerful stories in this episode. One of my favorite is the tanacity it took to overcome Hurricane Katrina destroying their entire operation and home. There’s loads of practical advice. Such as keep your day job, the level of hard work it takes to build a business, and finding a new plan when plan A doesn’t work.
