Slightly Unhinged With Justin Pavis

Should We Open a Bar? | Slightly Unhinged with Sean O’Hare


Listen Later

In this episode of Slightly Unhinged, Justin sits down with Sean O’Hare, founder of Evolution RoofWorks, owner of PDX DJs, flight attendant for Alaska Airlines, entrepreneur, casino enthusiast, and one of Justin’s favorite humans.

What starts with talk of opening a bar and spirals through business ideas, entrepreneurship, friendship, and chosen family turns into a much more real conversation about support systems, identity, ambition, and the people who actually show up for you when it matters. Sean has a way of turning the mic right back on Justin, which makes this episode feel a little different from the usual format in the best way.

They get into entrepreneurship, family complexity, allyship, social media, housing, roofing, and the emotional side of building something from the ground up. It’s chaotic, funny, honest, and unexpectedly personal.
