Comfort Peace and Freedom Podcast
I'm Ken Rusk, and during each episode, I speak with a world-class personality about what made them successful and about their experiences with my three favorite words: Comfort, Peace, and Freedom!
Today, I'm interviewing EJ Herron
EJ started out working for caterpillar, then went on to start his own excavating company and now shows everyone how technology can help improve even one of the oldest blue collar jobs moving dirt!
