  • Less Noise, More Reach / Why LinkedIn Works | Episode 148
    Oct 27 2026

    Today's episode is all about the not-discussed-often-enough, business-first, social media platform: LinkedIn. In real estate, none of the marketing experts are talking about it consistently. In insurance, same. Pizza shop owner ... same. So why are we highlighting LinkedIn on B&R this week? Because not only has it helped grow the Bricks & Risk podcast community over the last 2+ years, but it has also helped Sean & Tim grow their individual businesses. Dive into another "Timmy G's Top 3" where we discuss why you should be using LinkedIn more today than you did yesterday for your small business. Let's gooo!

  • Reviving an Icon, David Arena Brings Back Horn & Hardart, Part II | Episode 147
    Oct 20 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    Welcome to Part II, Bricks & Riskers! As mentioned last week, Dave Arena was our first official Bricks & Risk guest to warrant two parts for his episode. I mean, the conversation was just too good not to go deeper; kudos, Dave! Anyhoo, the main reason Sean Mooney & Tim Garrity wanted to sit down with Dave Arena was to learn more about his current mission to revive an iconic brand, Horn & Hardart. While H&H was known for their automats, Dave is bringing back the brand in a different way ... amazing coffee through ecommerce. Dig into Part II as Dave shares more about slinging top-notch coffee online, how Google & Meta are helping him get the word out, and his end goal of bringing back the automat to Philadelphia.
