With global uncertainty rattling supply chains and confidence, Mike and Scott lay out a four-question framework for owners to stress-test their business against a wobbling economy — grounded in real examples from their own portfolio.

You'll learn:

-How to separate a "blip" from a genuine "trend" in your numbers;

-Which lead indicators actually matter for import/export businesses

-Why annual pricing reviews are too slow for this environment;

-How to front-foot hard conversations with customers before you have the full solution;

-and why waiting for perfect information is itself a risk.

Beer: Black Sands Head Above Water Hazy Double IPA (7.3%)
Pie: Dairy Flat Bakery — Burger Pie

Running a business is one of the loneliest jobs in the world. Everyone thinks you've got it figured out. Most days, it feels like you're not so sure.

Pints, Pies & Profits is the weekly business podcast for founders and owners who want straight answers, not more noise. Every episode, Mike and Scott crack open a craft beer, cut into a pie, and dig into the real stuff, cash flow, team drama, strategy, growth, the decisions that keep you up at night. No jargon. No lectures. No pretending it's easy. Just honest conversations that leave you thinking more clearly about Monday morning.

Because business shouldn't feel like something that's happening to you. It should feel like something you're building.

New episodes every Thursday.
