  • When the Heat Is On: Handling Pressure in Your Practice
    Summer may bring sunshine and pool days, but it also brings rising stress—both outside and inside the practice. In this episode, Casey and Jarrod trade stories about brutal heat waves, sunburn-level mistakes, and the dental practice pressures that hit just as hard. From staff turnover and equipment failures to inflation squeezing every corner of your business, they break down what “the heat” really looks like for practice owners. Drawing clever parallels between surviving triple-digit temperatures and navigating high-pressure practice moments, the duo shares practical steps dentists can take to protect themselves. Think of it as the sunscreen, shade, and hydration your practice needs—knowing your numbers, preparing proactively, and avoiding the burn that comes from ignoring warning signs. Tune in for a fun, relatable, and seriously useful conversation.

Whether you're curious, skeptical, or already considering hiring your child, this conversation brings clarity, humor, and real-world insight to a topic dentists ask about all the time.

  • Practice Buying 101: What Most Dentists Miss
    In this episode, Casey and Jarrod break down what every dentist should evaluate before purchasing a practice—whether it’s your first or your fourth. From overhead and insurance mix to staffing, production trends, and hidden financial red flags, they walk through the “practice inspection” every buyer needs to perform.

  • Luck Won the Derby, But It Won’t Run Your Practice
    In this episode, Casey and Jarrod draw a sharp line between the thrill of an 80–1 Derby upset and the reality of running a dental practice. While a long shot can win a race, relying on luck rarely leads to financial stability, predictable income, or a healthy business. Together, they break down why so many dentists unknowingly “roll the ball out” and hope for the best—and what actually creates long-term success. From systems and cash flow to taxes, overhead, and leadership, this conversation shows why smart, steady decisions beat risky gambles every time.

  • The Tax Dentists Forget: Understanding Business Personal Property
    Jarrod and Casey sit down with Steve Levy, CPA & JD, to unpack one of the most misunderstood—and most commonly ignored—practice expenses: the Business Personal Property Tax. From dental equipment to furniture to the random items you don’t even think about, Steve explains what actually counts, what doesn’t, and why this tax matters more than most dentists realize. Steve breaks down how reporting works, why it varies by state and county, and how failing to track your assets properly can lead to unnecessary tax bills year after year. Whether you’re unsure what’s on your depreciation schedule or don’t even know this tax exists, this episode lays out the essentials so you can stay compliant, avoid overpaying, and finally take control of this forgotten corner of practice finances.

  • The Hidden Money Leak: Mastering Insurance Adjustments
    In this episode, Casey and Jarrod sit down with Josh Smith, Co-Owner and COO of Dental Claim Support, to uncover one of the most overlooked money drains in dentistry: insurance mismanagement. Josh breaks down why so many practices struggle with billing, insurance adjustments, and collections—and how even strong, busy offices quietly lose tens of thousands each year without realizing it. Together, they walk through the real warning signs that your practice is “drowning in insurance,” from inflated write-offs to aging claims to misleading collection percentages that look good on paper but hide serious problems.

  • Breaking Free From PPOs: The Smart Way to Take Back Control
    In this episode, Jarrod sits down with Jason Smith, Founder, CEO, and President of Four Quadrants Advisory, to expose how PPO plans silently drain dental practices—and why so many dentists feel trapped by them. Jason breaks down the hidden costs, the write-offs that quietly destroy profitability, and the dangerous mistake of cutting PPOs too quickly without proper preparation. Together, they walk through the strategic steps every dentist must take before dropping a plan: stabilizing cash flow, strengthening the business, negotiating fees, right-sizing the practice, and adding fee-for-service procedures that rebuild confidence and margin.

  • Should You Add a Partner? The Real Pros Behind the Decision
    In this episode, Casey and Jarrod break down the real advantages behind bringing a partner into your dental practice—beyond the surface-level ideas most people consider. From reducing the pressure of producing while you’re away, to gaining a trusted colleague to share decisions, responsibilities, and the emotional load of ownership, they explore why many solo dentists start feeling the pull toward partnership. They also unpack the nuances that make partnerships work—or fall apart. From differing personalities to varying clinical interests, the hosts discuss what makes a partnership mutually beneficial versus stressful.

  • The Hard Truth Dentists Aren’t Hearing, But Need To
    In this episode, Casey and Jarrod unpack a brutally honest reality many dentists face: clinically they’re elite, but financially they’re often surrounded by people who tell them what they want to hear—or nothing at all. From shallow advice on big purchases to unanswered questions during critical decisions, they explore why so many practice owners unknowingly settle for mediocrity on the business side. They also dig into the psychology behind it: why dentists, who thrive under precision and pressure, often avoid confrontation and accept subpar guidance until a major crisis—like a tax surprise or cash-flow shock—forces change.
