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.

Burning Out? Why Doing Less Might Be the Leadership Advantage You Need with Whitney Hahn
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if doing less made you a better leader?
In this episode of Just Some BS, Whitney Hahn (Founder of Provoke Better) joins Brandon to challenge everything you’ve been told about hustle, delegation, and what it really means to lead a growing company. From growing up inside a literal zoo (yes, with cobras and arctic foxes) to helping scale companies from 10 to 50+ employees, Whitney brings bold, BS-free insights that every founder, CEO, and operator needs to hear.
🧨 We unpack:
- Why “doing too much means leading too little”
- How founders become their company’s bottleneck
- What “useful ignorance” actually looks like in executive leadership
- Why radical candor and clear dashboards are non-negotiables
- How to delegate with confidence and results
- The “Got No Time for BS” toolkit for reclaiming your week
- Why vacation isn't a luxury—it's a leadership strategy
This one’s packed with humor, practical tools, real talk on burnout, and a new way to lead without losing yourself.
