| 0:00.0 | If you want your grill to sparkle like no other and you want to learn how to build an amazing culture in your company, then you're going to want to listen to this show. Hello, Hey, Hey, I'm a host, |
| 0:21.6 | Jake, Gino podcast, who |
| 0:36.6 | with my co-host, a multifamily mentor, the coach, Chef, the Father Six, the best line author, the G-Daddy. |
| 0:41.5 | Gino Barbero. Jim, how's going? |
| 0:43.1 | Jake? Trying to get it together this morning, my friend. Help me out here a little bit, bro. Help me out. |
| 0:47.4 | Hey, hey, all I'm going to say is, you know, according to my wife, nothing smells better than a can of WD40. And today's guest just so happens to be the chairman |
| 0:55.5 | and CEO of WD40 Company. He also co-authored the book, Helping People Win at Work. He has an |
