February 27, 2023 Episode 34 | Being a BMX Product Manager - Dave Paterson
I speak to Dave Paterson, We Make Things' (the parent company of Wethepeople, eclat, Radio Bikes and many other brands) BMX product manager. Dave is extremely knowledgeable in all things BMX products and it was awesome to publicly share that, considering I've been working on several products - including my signature Wethepeople Chaos Machine frame - with him privately over the last 3 years.

We'd love to hear your thoughts on any of the topics on this, or any episode.
