Summary
Hey there weekend warriors! I’m happy to announce that Tropical Talk Radio (iTunes link) will now be a weekly show for entrepreneurs seeking some weekend inspiration. That means I’ll try to get you new episodes by happy hour on Friday evening.
This week I’m joining you from from Vietnam’s capital city of Hanoi. Tiger beer (via nearby Singapore) is my unofficial sponsor. If a brand manager is reading this post, why not send me a tank top or something?!
QUICK NEWS: Most of you know we opened up our October Tropical MBA event 24 hours ago to the readers of this blog. We currently have 4 spaces open for the event. If you’d like to join us, I’m hoping you are able to make a decision fast. I’d like to sell these spots so I can get down to business with the crew! If there is anything I can do to help you make a decision, drop me a line Dan at TropicalMBA.com.

Back in the day, when I had a corporate gig, I had to have at least 15 shirts in the rotation to make sure that my coworkers didn't think I had some kind of mental disorder going on. And now, you know, the only people who know I wear the same thing every day are like the |

| 0:22.1 | And those people wear the same thing every day, too. |
| 0:24.6 | I think we should probably get to a podcast. |

| 0:31.3 | entrepreneurship, travel, and lifestyle. |

| 0:44.8 | along on our journey and expose the insider story on how we started a million dollar |

| 0:59.8 | the podcast I started so I could swear and stop editing the lifestyle business podcast. |
| 1:06.5 | You can subscribe to us in iTunes, give us a review ski. |
| 1:10.4 | A lot of the people that came to the |
| 1:11.8 | tropical NBA, they were the superfans, man. So if you're not a super fan, maybe you can flip |
| 1:16.4 | this thing off. It's not going to be as useful maybe as our traditional show. But the idea |
| 1:22.3 | of Tropical Talk Radio was so when I met interesting people, I could flip on that mic, when I've |
| 1:26.4 | got some ideas I can share with you. And now I've decided to add a little bit something else to the format, which is, |
