    Dec 17 2025

    This week the guys talk with Kevin Sibley, entrepreneur, cinematographer, and motion graphics artist. The guys talk with Sibley about his career journey, which began with making home movies on a VHS camcorder and progressed through working in news production - including the unexpected virality of a leprechaun news segment he filmed (which, according to Wikipedia, has over 28 million views at the time of this writing).

    Sibley shares insights into his decision to become an entrepreneur and freelancer, discussing the challenges of marketing and the benefits of specializing in niche production skills like motion graphics. The conversation also touches on the changing media landscape, the impact of AI and other creative technologies on content creation, and wraps up with Sibley providing some advice for aspiring content producers.

  • Episode 0066 Buying Expensive Stuff
    Nov 22 2025

    This week the guys discuss a major capital expenditure (CAPEX) decision for Caleb's coffee shop business! Caleb is contemplating purchasing new, cutting-edge roasting equipment from a young company which would expand his business into the coffee supply chain by allowing him to roast beans in-house.

    They examine the potential 18-month return on investment (ROI), the risks associated with the new technology, and the strategic shift required to transition from solely a coffee shop to a coffee shop + roastery. Chris emphasizes the value of investing vertically within the current industry to mitigate risk and cautions against making decisions based on boredom, urging Caleb to be an objective "consultant to himself". The discussion concludes with an appeal to listeners for feedback on the challenging but important decision!
