This week we dive into everyones favorite topic: "How on earth can I be cooler than I already am?"
There's more to life than being a superstar barista - we promise.
Ever wonder what your boss is doing when they're not with you at the cafe? We can't tell you, but we can tell you what we're doing!
How do you get money to start a business? We're not experts but here's what we did.
How we hire and promote within our company, why management isn't for everyone, and understanding the weight that your words and actions have as a leader.
We sit down with our wholesale magician Alex Marse to chat about his experience at the Disney Institute. We go pretty hard with external education - but is it even worth it?

Thank you for sticking with us through these times we'll be back with regularly scheduled content so soon (we promise).
Baca and Alex talk about the implications of getting into the multiroaster game. Multiroaster or not we firmly believe in doing business with people who share your values and vision. As with most things in life the wholesaler / retailer relationship is a two way street and identifying a plan or target clientele will help you build a program with a strong foundation. Enjoy!
Chris and Jared talk about what goes down at orientation, how they first got introduced to barista competitions, and why they were motivated to do them in the first place. We have a fathers day sale going on through this Sunday the 18th at midnight, so if you want to get 10% off for someone special in your life, head on over to catandcloud.com to get the party started!
It's Jared's birthday! I didn't know what to get him so I got him this podcast. Listen in to learn more about this crazy character.
Part 1 of Baca's SCA Expo presentation - specially converted to podcast form. He chats things small independent businesses can do to capture larger market share and have more successful, sustainable businesses. What do people want in a coffee experience? What is good coffee? Should roasting be transparent? All this and more! Endless Bummer T Now Available: http://bit.ly/2smq6Rn Have questions? Email us at [email protected]
