There are two levels of cool: Those that know how to play guitar and everyone else below them. Playing guitar is a skill that many want, some achieve and a few master. But how do you learn how to play a guitar? Bradley Fish knows how to play guitar and has been doing it for decades. He has travelled the world and played instruments in all corners of the globe. On top of that, he has trained hundreds of students to play guitar. But what is your goal with learning how to play guitar. As a professional musician, the business can be tough. Bradley opens up about the realities of making it in the music business, the changing landscape for artists, and why so few bands ever achieve major label success. He dives into his teaching philosophy, the evolution of technology in music education, and how he’s adapted his business to offer one-on-one guitar lessons both in person and online. Plus, Bradley gives us an exclusive peek inside his state-of-the-art music studio filled with unique instruments from around the world, and talks about his innovative approach to connecting with students.

  • Scaling Seasonal Success: Inside the Growth of Lang Lighting and Decor
    May 16 2025
    Brandon Lang - Lang Lighting and Decor On a Knowing What People Want: "And people like quick. They want their stuff done yesterday." The evolution of how a business came to be and grow is always interesting. With Brandon Lang, of Lang's Lighting and Decor, he started making elaborate haunted houses for the neighborhood and now runs a successful lighting and decor business. Brandon shares how an epic backyard haunted house for Halloween—built with his brother Dustin, a pile of recycled cardboard, and a garage full of ambition—sparked their passion for decorating and community connection. After their mega-popular haunted house was shut down for safety reasons, the brothers channeled their creative energy into a new business: helping families transform their homes with professional-grade Christmas and landscape lighting. Listen as Brandon pulls back the curtain on launching their company out of their dad’s garage, facing the countless challenges of growth (from tangled bins of holiday lights to wrangling their first employees), and figuring out how to scale quality work without losing the personal touch. If you’ve ever wondered what goes into making neighborhoods dazzle during the holidays—or dreamed of turning your favorite hobby into a full-time pursuit—this episode will leave you inspired, entertained, and maybe ready to up your own lighting game.
