Episode 303 - David John Wyatt || A Vegan Joining The BO Family? Nov 29, 2022

Show notes

This is why we do this. David John commented on one of our posts - spoiler alert, he commented from the perspective of a curious vegan - and he got jumped on. But after some education and understanding, Robbie made the offer to him to be a regular guest on the podcast so we can explore these differences in value sets together. You’re not going to want to miss a single minute of this hour of iron sharpening iron conversation.
