Jonathan and I have been social media buddies for a couple years now. Recently he made several leather products for All American Maker, and I had the privilege of producing candles for his grand opening! My wife and I drove down and spent the whole weekend hanging out, recording a podcast, and just being warm bodies in the shop and opening day. It was really cool to be a part of this experience with Jonathan, and I want all of you to meet this incredible entrepreneur that is definitely going places!  Support the show (https://www.allamericanmaker.us/members)

Last summer I drove out to the West Coast and visited several makers! One of these was Bryant who I met in the upper part of Washington state! While visiting him, I had a chance to see behind the curtain of how they make the different products. We grabbed lunch and had the opportunity to chat about life and owning/operating a business in this day and age. Bryant has a wealth of experience and information to share, as well as being super down to earth and willing to talk about pretty much anything! I hope you enjoy the episode and give him a follow! Support the show (https://www.allamericanmaker.us/members)

Christian has built a following around some of the things he really enjoys. Men&apos;s rustic fashion and whiskey. I had the privilege of recording the podcast over the phone in May of 2020, and shorting thereafter, during a work road trip that I took in July of 2020, I got the chance to meet up with Christian in Seattle for an afternoon to meet in person and chat. Christian is super down to earth, and has a ton of knowledge about working with brands, and shares tips for influencers that I feel will be invaluable!Support the show (https://www.allamericanmaker.us/members)

I&apos;ve known Jeremy for over 2 years now. It started when I reached out to him about considering custom candles for his business Jericho Home Georgia!

I apologize for the lower quality recording, but I trust that you will be able to pull out all the nuggets of amazing info that Jeremy had to share regardless! Support the show (https://www.allamericanmaker.us/members)
