Hiring feels like fishing in a dry pond lately—everyone’s looking, no one’s biting. This week, Mike and Blaine tackle the real reasons small business owners struggle to hire and keep great people. From job posts that scare applicants away to training that burns time but not results, they break down how to stop relying on unicorn hires and start building a team that actually sticks. Tune in for smart, scrappy strategies that don’t involve ping-pong tables or trust falls.

Don't miss the latest insights and entertaining discussions on entrepreneurship, small business, and random BS. Subscribe, follow, and like Mike and Blaine's "Business, Beer, and BS" and catch every episode!
