Ep. 69 - The B-Team Gets Grilled
Manage episode 491013639 series 3557173
Have you ever wondered what happens when podcast hosts become the subject of their own show? In this special episode of The B-Team Podcast, the tables are turned as local businessman Jim Corbett arrives claiming to be the president, CEO, and founder of the hosts' fan club—complete with questions supposedly collected from listeners.
What unfolds is a hilarious journey into the personalities behind the microphones. Josh, Matt, and Rob find themselves answering rapid-fire personal questions while sipping bourbon from an elk-shaped bottle. From celebrity doppelgangers (apparently Matt resembles Mark Wahlberg—a claim that draws immediate skepticism) to revelations about which host has a black belt in Taekwondo, the conversation peels back the layers on these Bentonville personalities.
The episode transforms into a game show of sorts, with Jim awarding points for correct answers about the podcast's history. We've discovered that we've created almost 70 episodes, totaling over 49 hours of content, with our interview with Jenny Marrs standing as our longest episode to date. Perhaps most telling is the revelation that of the three hosts' wives, only Emily regularly listens to the podcast—primarily because she helps with editing—while Angie and Karey have barely tuned in at all.
The genuine friendship between these three shines throughout, particularly when they unanimously agree that "Trailhead Tony" was their most surprisingly successful episode. What started as a podcast focused on Bentonville businesses and bourbon tastings has clearly evolved into something more—a platform showcasing authentic connections and unfiltered conversation.
Ready for a bourbon-fueled peek behind the podcast curtain? This episode offers exactly that. Subscribe now and join the fan club that Jim is apparently presiding over—you'll be in good company.
