This week we have our first guest, Alex Bayer of Genius. He details the successes and failures of being an entrepreneur, the hard truths of what is necessary sometimes, and how to juggle balls. Well, that last part is a bit vague, but listen in to get all of the details. This is an honest and open look into what it takes to remake a Genius.

Every week will tackle the consumer packaged goods industry from the food, culture, and branding aspects of things. You’re gonna hear some shit with which you may or may not agree. However, the perspective that is provided is open and honest. Frankly, it’s gonna make some people a little mad. It’s not done in a way to be assholes, but in a way to make you think of us as being jerks. After all, “Jeremy” and “Kirk”, does equal “Jirk”.
And with that, welcome to Jirk’s Podcast.
