The Food & Beverage Lifer Podcast
Hello! My name is John Murray. I created the Food & Beverage Lifer Podcast to share some lessons and stories from my lifetime around the food, beverage, and specialty retail businesses. I am not a guru or know it all. I am just sharing my experience, and hoping people can learn from it and/or be entertained by it. Just real world info from someone who has done it.
