About this listen
This is the first episode of Businessing as a daily show—Monday through Thursday at 11am Central. Pat opens with a challenge: We're one month into 2026. Is your business still Groundhog Day? Or did you actually do something about those promises you made to yourself?
The lead story explains why this show exists. This is not a business show—it's a show for people who RUN a business. That's different. Business owners are isolated, exhausted, wearing the same sweatpants for three days, trying to keep up with technology that's moving faster than they can track. This show is a lifeline, not another obligation.
Pat then demonstrates the difference between AI chatbots and AI agents with a real example. A chatbot answers questions and you copy/paste. An agent actually DOES things. Over the weekend, Pat asked Claude Cowork to reorganize his YouTube channel. It researched best practices, logged into YouTube, deleted old videos, created playlists, optimized SEO—all while Pat walked on the treadmill. An hour later, done.
Three Idea Slam questions get rapid-fire answers: (1) Haven't taken vacation in 5 years? You didn't build a company, you built a job. Fix your delegation and raise your rates. (2) Competitor copying everything? You're not different enough. Become one-of-one. (3) Spouse doesn't understand your work hours? They probably have a point—review your behavior and explain the business model.
Fun closer: February 2026 is a perfect calendar month—starts on Sunday, ends on Saturday, four exact weeks. Oddly satisfying.
