What does it take to walk away from a $15M term sheet? Bob Knorr did just that — choosing ownership, control, and vision over outside capital. He built that company (then 2 others) with a poignant blend of business sense, ethics, and intuition. In this episode we discuss how he built a medtech company from the ground up, bootstrapped it with creativity (and a Costco credit card), and ultimately exited to a publicly traded company. We discuss his other ventures and what he’s learned along the way about hiring the right early employees, developing a go-to-market strategy, and how to stay true to a vision while adapting to reality. Throughout every topic we cover, Bob shares hard-earned wisdom for founders at every stage. --- Episode Resources Check out what Bob is currently building with his company “Timeless Tartans” (https://timelesstartans.com)

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
