TL;DR: I'm starting a podcast. I'm launching a podcast for non-tech founders: Old School; New Tech

After nearly three decades building tech, launching products, and working alongside some of the smartest entrepreneurs out there — I've realized something that's been bugging me for a while:

The tech world has been leaving traditional businesses behind.

And that's a problem.

Because most of the economy aren't startups chasing funding. They're consultants, contractors, agency owners, service providers, and family-run shops. People who are brilliant at what they do, but weren't handed a playbook for navigating the modern digital world.

And the truth is: a lot of the technology out there is accessible, helpful, and ready to go — if someone shows you how to use it.

That's where this podcast comes in.

Why I'm doing this now

Over the past few years running Automaze, I've had a front-row seat helping non-technical founders adopt automation, integrate AI, and use modern tools to streamline operations and grow faster — without hiring a full dev team.

And the results are incredible.

  • A solo consultant closing more deals with a follow-up sequence.
  • A service business automating 20 hours a month of admin work.
  • A traditional agency scaling without growing headcount.

But here's the thing: Nobody's telling these stories.

There are a million podcasts out there about SaaS startups, venture capital, and the latest dev frameworks. But almost none about what happens when a "regular business" gets smart about systems. And that gap is exactly what I want to fill.

Old School; New Tech isn't just a podcast — it's part of a mission to level the playing field. Because tech doesn't need to be intimidating. It just needs to be explained in plain language, with practical use cases and a sense of what really works (and what doesn't).

Introducing: Old School; New Tech

It's a podcast where I talk to real-world founders and operators who've modernized their businesses using simple tools — not code. Not VC funding. Just strategy, insight, and execution.

We break down how they did it, what tools they used, and what they learned along the way.

This isn't about billion-dollar exits or SaaS unicorns. It's about practical wins, smarter systems, and staying competitive in 2025 and beyond.

Some of these guests are using Airtable to replace spreadsheets. Others are integrating AI tools to generate content or automate repetitive tasks. And many are just figuring out the basics of getting their systems to talk to each other.

No fluff. No buzzwords. Just business owners sharing what's actually worked for them.

The first full episode drops at the end of this month.

There's some great stuff coming up — real conversations with founders who've cracked the code on getting tech to actually help their business, not slow it down.

If you're a founder, owner, or operator who's using (or planning to use) technology to:

  • Improve operations
  • Grow your business faster

… I'd love to hear from you.

Whether you're a one-person show or running a company with a team of 50 — if you've found smart ways to leverage tech, I want to talk to you.

Let's level the playing field

Tech shouldn't be reserved for the people who already live inside it. Old School; New Tech is my way of helping more founders take advantage of what's already out there — and showing that you don't need to become a “tech company” to build a smarter business.

I truly believe this show can empower more business owners to make better, faster, more informed decisions about tech — and hopefully avoid some of the mistakes I've seen others make.

Hope you'll subscribe, share it with someone who needs it, and maybe even join me on the show.
