Welcome to The Plug Podcast
Welcome to The Plug: the podcast where real people talk real business. I’m Jeff Kohl, a builder, entrepreneur, and connector who’s made plenty of mistakes and learned a lot along the way.
This show is for anyone who loves business, building, or just hearing how people actually figure things out. Every episode, I sit down with founders, CEOs, athletes, tradespeople, and wildcards to talk deals, careers, construction, comebacks, and everything in between.
It’s honest, sometimes messy, often funny, and always real. Whether you’re a homeowner, business owner, or just trying to figure out your next move… you’re in the right place. Subscribe and get plugged in.
