Just Some BS
Just Some BS is where industrial leaders talk about what actually breaks when companies scale.
Hosted by Brandon Stanchock, CEO of an industrial construction company, this show challenges the myths industrial businesses tell themselves about control, accountability, and growth.
Because most industrial companies don’t struggle from lack of talent, they struggle with a lack of clarity.
And when clarity is missing, leaders tighten control instead of fixing the real issue.
This is not a generic leadership podcast.
It’s for operators responsible for execution — the ones dealing with scope definition, contract expectations, field-office tension, margin pressure, and modernization decisions that carry real risk.
Expect:
• Solo breakdowns of operational friction
• Honest discussions about leadership under pressure
• Execution failures that teach more than wins
• Accountability without control theater
• Conversations with industrial operators and subject-matter experts
If you lead in construction, fabrication, industrial services, or execution-heavy environments — this show is built for you.
No fluff. No buzzwords. Just real operational leadership.
Just Some BS
The Personal Branding Playbook (From a Reluctant Creator Who Figured It Out)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Brandon Stanchock wasn’t born to “build a personal brand.” In fact, he used to think he had nothing interesting to say. Fast forward to 2024—and now he’s helping others do it, too.
In this solo episode, Brandon answers a series of personal branding questions for Elevate and Inspire, a newsletter by Anthony Gaenzle on LinkedIn. But instead of giving buzzwords, he gives it to you straight: what’s working, what’s not, and how personal branding is impacting his life, his leadership, and his business.
🎙️ You’ll hear:
- How he started posting and podcasting while running a full company
- Why authenticity and humor are his brand's secret weapons
- How content has helped attract top talent and valuable collaborators
- The surprising ROI of giving away your best ideas for free
- How batching, AI, and time blocking keep the creative machine moving
- Why being “boring” is a branding lie you need to let go of
- How video editing became fun (eventually)
- And what “scroll stopper” really means in the branding world
Whether you’re a creator, a CEO, a young leader—or just tired of overthinking every post—this is your reminder that brand-building doesn’t require perfection. Just consistency, intention, and a little bit of BS.
