The Business Brew Podcast

Business Brew started as a simple idea—just coffee with a business expert. Business owners and entrepreneurs could gather around that expert, ask questions, and get answers in real-time. It was an informal gathering created to support the small business ecosystem in the Spokane region. Typically, we met the morning of the first Thursday of the month in Downtown Spokane. Josh King served as the facilitator. In May 2020, Business Brew, like many things, had to shift gears and we switched to an online format. This podcast is the result of that shift. Features music from bensound.com.
