About Trust Me Bro

Trust Me Bro is like hangin with your bros. You talk about many things - culture, sports, business, politics (maybe) and current trends. You talk $&@#. You laugh. You debate ideas. You're childish. You're serious. You're multi-dimensional. You're interested in lotsa things. So are we - We don't believe in "a niche podcast". We'll have some well-researched insights. And trash takes. And have some fun 😈. Jay Hermele has been a practicing lawyer for 13 years and has also founded a legal tech company. He's an Oregon Duck to the core. Kevin Wagstaff recently co-founded, scaled and sold his software company, Spectora. In his 20s, he worked in tech, real estate and finance. He played college basketball at Colorado School of Mines & Fort Hays State University.
