This podcast has great dialogue that would benefit anyone navigating the mysteries of a small to medium size startup. There are little nuggets throughout each episode and I would recommend this for not only my builder friends but any entrepreneur. Well done!

I have to say, I was a little sceptical when I saw APB jumped on the podcasting bandwagon. I’m a few episodes in and I’m hooked! I think the best part about this podcast in particular is how different each episode is. Tye’s story is not only inspiring, he’s relatable and the interviews with the coaches are incredibly insightful as to what APB actually do. Great content..Highly recommend.
