The Drew Gerber Show

Reese Queen is one of my closest friends and one of my favorite people to brainstorm with when it comes to using the power of the internet, digital marketing, and finding ways to make things happen.

Reese seems to always have exciting and new opportunities on the table and I would argue it's mostly because he is open to them. He is a man of faith and strives for a balanced work life.

He has worked in many startups and owned most of them. He can work up a user interface design on the frontend of a website in literal minutes and have a pitch deck ready in hours. Best of all, whenever I am stumped, he picks up the phone and walks me back off the ledge of creative paralysis.

His current company called Meeting Pair takes something as mundane as cold email marketing and leverages it to connect myself and their clients to just about anyone in any position.

He truly understands people and their need to simply be seen by someone that wants the best for them.

In this episode (which is actually the third time I have recorded it) I inadvertently tell you to not over think it, and when you do fail, how to deal with the shame of it on the other side. A New Year is upon us, and with it, those pesky resolutions you will inevitably not follow through on, whether it be now or 3 months from now. I bring up the analytics and how the Drew Gerber Podcast is pretty much famous now. With being famous, the struggles of that with friends and family - who will only benefit enormously from this transparency (that was a joke, but seriously what do they have to lose? Nothing. If this works out we can do Christmas in the Bahamas). But ultimately Drew just takes himself and others a little less seriously and only looks forward to good things to come. One day he will get an actual show schedule done, but for now he is loving the sporadic-ness of it all. And no that's not a word.

In episode #004, Jonah Prill exposed Quinn and one of his many "accidents". With Christmas here and him being in town, he decided to come on and redeem himself with his side of catching on fire and spending months in a burn ward. Quinn and Drew talk about their video company and some valuable lessons learned from it, discuss a Mexico style Christmas in Montana, and Quinn critiques previous episodes and what he wished he could have heard more of. Merry Christmas and Flame On! From the Gerber Brothers. If you know Quinn and Drew, this is not an episode to miss due to the constant same voice chuckles. Is Drew just changing his voice slightly and carrying out one of his alter egos!?! Only one way to find out! Please Rate and Review on Apple and Spotify Podcasts App!

Its been brought to my attention I should probably introduce myself, and I have stopped talking in third person. For those of you who don't know me. This is my story, I have saved some parts to dive in on more for when I can bring my wife on, my good friends, and others. I try to tell it with as much humility and honesty as possible. But that can be difficult now that I have "Fans". Its an Hour and 20 minutes long because then I don't have to do it again. Unless its on someone else's podcast... which could happen because I have "Fans" now...Thank You. I talk about cowboying, tech startup company, web design, my time in the oil fields, combining, competition shooting and a bit about my attachment issues. This podcast is a doozy. Listen up. Please and Rate and Follow and Subscribe. Doing so is free. It's only my dreams counting on it. Let's gooooo... and Merry Christmas :)

In this episode Drew discusses what good it does when you have others that urge you on in what you would like to do. He talks a little business and some faith based ideals. All in all this is his best podcast yet where the quality and content have seemed to come together. He looks forward to some future interviews and reiterates his biggest goal for this podcast is to be of use to others and even make some relationships. From it. Listen to the end for some bloopers. Keep Your Stick on the ice.

The Editing gets slightly better and Drew added some extra tune-age. He discusses why he is making this podcast and some of the struggles he had previously trying to find some type of self improvement. Drew does a quick flashback to another nugget he learned from Naval Ravikant and is just overall excited to be able to speak a little more life into his dream of getting paid to speak and letting you learn and listen along the way. Drew also talks about one of the times he made the mistake of working for something promised while doing something he didn't want to do but felt he had to do.

It will get better folks. Speech pattern was a little jumpy this time because Drew is obviously thinking real hard. And he is still getting use to literally thinking and speaking at the same time.

P.S. Should Drew keep writing these descriptions in third person?
