Paul and Craig talk about the BFF, the Big Fresno Fair. You might’ve heard about a particular new statue that’s causing some controversy.

The Two Guys also talk about whether the Fair is a positive or negative for our economy, lawns transforming into parking lots, and betting on the ponies.

This episode deep and wide into a jungle of topics, with plenty of laughter along the way. As always, we are grateful to our title sponsor, the beautiful people and place that make up Terry’s House.ep

Paul Swearengin and Craig Scharton talked with International best selling author Everett O’Keefe about the new, exciting world of self-publishing, on-demand printing, and hybrid publishing. In other words, there are NO more excuses not to author and publish a book. In fact, there are many benefits to publishing a book. Everett talks about how it clarifies your thoughts and opens opportunities for expanding your business reach, increasing your value in your industry and possibly opening up opportunities in consulting and speaking.

Everett and his family live in Clovis, California. He has authored six books and now helps others to go through the self-publishing process and has a specific marketing strategy that he uses with clients. This podcast should encourage many of our listeners to write their book! We mention some local authors and resources like Armen Bacon, Kurt Madden, and Phyllis Brotherton. In our What’s on Your Mind segment, we discuss the downtown Fresno’s oldest building’s (The Expositor) facade work and John Rup and David Robertson of Nolan Thomas Construction.
