Crystal Coast PodcastMykal Zangwill - The Fuzzy PeachHave you ever met someone, and it just 'clicked'? That's how it was when I met Mykal. We chatted for over 30 minutes before I ever hit record, and then we chatted for 15 more minutes before the interview ever started, and then we chatted for another 30 minutes after the interview was over! It turns out that we both love the art of growing small businesses and share similar passions in that venture. You'll love Mykal too, and you'll also be craving some amazing froyo (frozen yogurt) from The Fuzzy Peach after listening to this episode.

Crystal Coast PodcastLet's Have Some Fun! - An Introduction to the ShowHey, there! We’re Aaron + Andrea Brewer. We have 3 girls: Andie, Aisley, & Avie (cute, we know 😊), and we moved to the #crystalcoastnc in October 2020 after 34 years of vacationing here - yep, our whole lives!
