9 w/ Tom Peters
The joyous Tom Peters joins me for what can only be called the most personal episode of Your Only Option. Personal, because it happened in my house with all my dogs, cats and wives (wife) continuing to do what they do with very little acknowledgment that a podcast recording is going on. It's... Interesting.

All the way back in 2011, we sat down with an old pal, Ms. Katie Hughes from around these parts then but now from Chicago. We never hear from her anymore, but that doesn't stop me from pretending we still have a friendship by playing this great old ep. Don't miss it!
