**Four years ago, PodcastVideos.com was one person. Today it's seventeen. Parker Dodson was employee number one.**
**Parker joins Matt, Shelby, and Taylor to talk about what building a business actually feels like from the inside — not the success story version. What it's like when you are every department. Which job you drop first when you're doing all of them. How you know when to hand something off. And what happens to the culture you had at five people once you're at seventeen.**
**Then the conversation turns: a four-year-old company across the table from an eighty-year-old one. What can a startup do that a legacy business can't? And what does eighty years know that four hasn't learned yet?**
**Parker's road ran from Van Buren, Arkansas, through a college hobby in underwater camera work, to Northwest Arkansas in 2011 — and into a media company he helped build from nothing.**
**If you've ever had an idea you didn't chase, this one's going to sting a little.**
**Presented by Lewis Automotive Group.**
