As the host of "Out to Lunch", a weekly show on the NPR affiliate in New Orleans , he's interviewed thousands of them.

This path isn't about achieving world domination. Instead, it's about creating a meaningful business by drawing on life experience and passion. It's entrepreneurship for the rest of us. Let's face it: Every one of us has an idea for a business we would just love to try out.
