We made it to 20 episodes! I know some people don’t like it when you talk about milestones like this, but I’m doubly excited for this one because I finally get to publish my interview with Kayne McGladrey from Integral Partners. I know many of your have been scrambling to finish up the quarter or fiscal year, depending on your industry, so hopefully this will give you an opportunity to sit back, relax, and listen to the excellent information that Kayne provided.
