This is a remastered version of one of my first interviews. That said, I’m sure that you will get a lot out of this conversation, even if you have listened to it once before. I know I did.
Brennan Agranoff is founder of Hoopswagg, a custom apparel design company specializing in basketball socks. You can see his products on his website https://hoopswagg.com/ and on Instagram @hoopswaggdotcom
I’ve recorded about 50 episodes for this podcast and wanted to revisit some of my earliest episodes, both to polish them up a little bit with better editing, and to explore and reexamine the wisdom the guests have to offer. I’m especially glad I took the time to listen again to Brennan Agranoff, founder of Hoopswagg. As I’ve said before, I’m constantly impressed not just by his business insights, but by his attitude and his maturity. I’m sure that you will get a lot out of this conversation, even if you have listened to it once before, because even going through slowly and editing the conversation, I found myself learning new things that I am excited to apply in my own life. So please enjoy this conversation.
