درباره این پادکست 🔗
The Last Bolt is a podcast about what it really takes to build, run, and pass on a small business when real people and real livelihoods are on the line.
Hosted by Steve Glod, each episode is a deep, practical conversation with founders, operators, buyers, and second generation owners who are living inside the work. We talk about succession, trust, family dynamics, buying and selling businesses, systemizing what lives in your head, and turning founder driven companies into ones that can scale, transfer, and survive beyond a single person.
These are not surface level interviews. They are the conversations about how businesses actually work, how decisions get made under pressure, and what it feels like to step into ownership, whether you are taking over a family company, buying a business, or preparing for the next chapter.
Produced by Rowan, the human centered, AI powered platform helping business owners prepare for succession, growth, and transition with clarity and care.
