Episode 33 is The Working Stiffs true introduction to The Podhub Network. No better way to do it than to bring on the man who invited them into the network, Smitty the Sales & Talent Executive for the Podhub Network and Co-host of Around The 412 Podcast. Smitty shared with us what the network is about and a little bit about this adventures in podcasting. After that, it got "ranty". In their true "Doin' It Live" fashion, the boys spent a considerable amount of time solving all of America's problems. Well, not really. They got a lot of their pent up feelings regarding culture, big business, the and politics of their chests and Danny may have started a new political party.***** UNION BREAK*****Sponsored by Twist of Fate Productionshttps://www.facebook.com/twistoffateproductionsBig Atlantic - Battling ChainsFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/BigAtlantic/Instagram: @bigatlanticTwitter: @bigatlanticSpotify: Big AtlanticJoin us on:https://www.workingstiffspodcast.comhttps://www.podhubnetwork.comShop: https://workingstiffspodcast.threadless.comFacebook: facebook.com/groups/theworkingstiffspodcast facebook.com/workingstiffspodcastTwitter: http://www.twitter.com/wrkngstiffspodEmail: workingstiffspodcast@gmail.com

Grab a beer, open a box of Friscuits and enjoy the sounds of Zack gagging on an Imperial Stout aged on espresso beans, chocolate, vanilla and ancho chili peppers.
