52nd Episode! Released weekly, this means we've lasted an entire year on the air!
Pop the champagne? Nah. We went with hard cider from our friends at Black Apple Crossing.
This week we were joined by Spencer Jones with LineGard Med, and exciting company that was founded by Spencer under two years ago when he was working as a registered nurse. He saw problems with the status quo in the hospitals he worked in, and started down a road of creating medical devices. It's been over 400 days since he last scrubbed in, and he doesn't plan on turning back. Spencer is in the process of moving his company back to Fayetteville after participating in two accelerators, and working as the Entrepreneur in Residence at the HUBx LifeSciences Accelerator in Little Rock, AR.
Books recommended in this episode (with links to Amazon):
