Our guest for today’s episode is Stephen Colon, a fellow podcaster and founder of Knucklehead Media Group.

Stephen Colon is the Director of Business Development of Knucklehead Media Group which runs his podcast show, Knucklehead Podcast. He served in the Marine Corps for several years. After leaving the military, he entered the business world.
