**Starting a Start Up — with Parker Dodson**

Most people who think about starting something never do. The reason usually isn't money — it's that they can't picture the first ninety days.

Parker Dodson can. As the first employee at PodcastVideos.com, he watched a one-person operation become a seventeen-person company in four years, shifting along the way from running the gear and editing footage to leading people and scaling a modern media business.

In Episode 101, Parker sits down with Matt, Shelby, and Taylor for an honest look at the startup stage — the part nobody puts in the highlight reel. The episode closes with a contrast worth the price of admission: four years of building against eighty years of holding, and what each one still has to learn from the other.
