In Episode 160 of the Scratch Agency Podcast, Stephen Turnbull and Shawn Fitzgerald bring a special solo episode announcing the return of the Scratch Agency Mastermind Meetup—bigger, better, and more intentional than ever.

After an incredible response from last year’s event, this episode walks you through everything you need to know about the 2026 mastermind happening in New York City. From the structure and format, to what makes this event different from traditional conferences, Stephen and Shawn break down how this intimate, high-value room is designed to help agency owners at every stage grow faster—together.

This isn’t a sit-and-listen conference. It’s a true roundtable mastermind where you’ll get direct feedback on your agency, learn from others in the trenches, and build real relationships that extend far beyond the event.

🔍 If you’re building a scratch agency (or thinking about it) and want to surround yourself with the right people, ask better questions, and get real answers—this is the room you want to be in.
