Just Some BS
Welcome to Just Some BS—the podcast for high-potential humans trying to figure it out without pretending they’ve got it all together.
Hosted by Brandon, this is where personal growth meets real talk, career chaos meets clarity, and leadership lessons are served with a side of sarcasm.
Each episode is part journal, part pep talk, part “did they just say that?”
Expect stories from the trenches of work and life, honest reflections, and the kind of insights you’d only get from someone who’s been through the BS and decided to podcast about it.
If you're into ambition, awkwardness, and a little bit of absurdity—you’re home.
New episodes every Tuesday.
Stay weird.

Leaving the Amish, Building a Brand: Jonathan Fisher’s Journey from Tradition to Disruption
Jonathan Fisher’s entrepreneurial journey is anything but typical. Born and raised in an Amish family with an 8th-grade education, Jonathan left tradition behind to chase something more. In this episode, he opens up about how he transitioned from his Amish upbringing to co-founding Bavanda, a promotional drinkware company that's now facing a pivotal rebrand.
We explore:
- The realities of building a business from scratch with no blueprint
- The internal battle of too much vision and not enough focus
- What public speaking, fine dining, and culture have to do with building a better brand
- The power of storytelling in both product development and personal growth
- How embracing naivety sometimes beats overthinking
If you’re navigating business pivots, chasing your purpose, or struggling with imposter syndrome, this episode delivers the wisdom (and laughs) you didn’t know you needed.
🎧 Let’s talk vision, purpose, product, and what really matters when building something from the ground up.
