What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I love that they’re digging into the details and taught through various pros and cons, including the mindset it takes to be successful in an acquisition. I also liked that they’re not afraid to dig into tricky topics, like valuing an AI business.

hanks1415 · Aug 2026

Girdley, Mills, and Bill do an excellent job breaking down the key elements to look for in acquiring a small business by bringing their years of invaluable wisdom garnered through actually acquiring and running their own businesses all with the perfect amount of wit and humor.

Memokpae84 · Dec 2023

Mike, Bill, and I forgot the name of the other guy (haha), are all great. It’s the only podcast I tune into weekly now. It’s incredibly entertaining because they don’t take themselves too seriously, and it’s very informative. I’m learning things that are helping me prep my company to one day be acquired. Keep it up gents! All the way from El Paso - the forgotten city of Texas.

RoyalSkegee · May 2023

These guys bring valuable insights into smb investing/deals, but in a very entertaining way. I have gotten a lot out of regularly listening to Mike, Bill, and Mills. Must listen stuff if you are new to SMB investing. Even if you are not new, it’s highly entertaining to hear their thoughts on whichever deal they bring on the show each week.
