Vendor Chronicles
A case of Budweiser and a bottle of Jack
"In this unapologetically raw episode of Vendor Chronicles, Q the Messenger and Shane the Brain Knox cover it all—from Tony Hawk and Simone Biles to Egg Beater Jesus, and even Buc-ee’s famous beef jerky. We swap wild stories about bugs in popcorn, bees in margaritas, and the hustle behind organic honey. Dive into our personal origin stories and the chaos of child custody swaps and baby mama drama. Things heat up as we talk small-town community service, shooting rats at the dump with Leroy, fueled by Budweiser and Jack. We reveal the grind behind our New York Times bestseller, Southern Hustle: Kettlecorn and Wooden Toys, and share lessons learned from Boot and Bert. With insights on keeping your family out of your business, unpacking the Dunning-Kruger effect, and how ‘thoughts become things,’ this episode hits hard and leaves nothing unsaid."
