Episode description

Episode 36: Troy Munson – https://www.linkedin.com/in/troymunson – and Daniel Berk – https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielberk – swap PB&J tips, parenting wins, and hard truths about friendship, marriage, and work. From the hunt for “your Shawn and Ashton” couple friends, to rules of engagement that keep marriages healthy, to why “friendly jabs” aren’t so friendly, this one’s part comedy, part therapy. They also wade into LinkedIn etiquette, IPO dreams, controversial brand moves, and the psychology of being first in sales—or a job interview. Plus: creatine talk, hairline honesty, and why apologizing quickly might be the ultimate life hack.
