Episode 212
Wednesday, 25 March, 2026
In this March edition of It’s 5 O’Clock Somewhere, Marc Shaffer and I are back with another happy hour-style conversation where business, life, and Kansas City culture all collide. We kick things off with Marc rescheduling our recording…for a TV appearance. I’ve officially been bumped. But it leads to a bigger conversation about visibility, promoting causes that matter, and the growing momentum behind Run for the Roses supporting the not-for-profit Growing Futures. Along the way, we cover: -A job candidate who flew himself to Kansas City for a chance meeting and got hired -Why younger professionals are thinking more entrepreneurially -Kansas City BBQ rankings (yes, Joe’s vs. Q39) -The power of relationships and reflecting on legacy -Health, continuous learning, and why growth never stops. We wrap with what really matters: family, fresh air, and T-ball season. Grab a drink. It’s five o’clock somewhere. This episode is brought to you by Searcy Financial.
