Business of Home Podcast

I look forward to Business of Home every week—it’s become one of my most reliable ways to stay informed without feeling overwhelmed. The hosts have a sharp, often humorous take on complex topics like the economy and tariffs, especially as they affect the home and design industry. It makes subjects that could feel dry actually engaging and memorable. What I appreciate most are the interviews. The conversations with innovators—particularly artists and artisans—are consistently thoughtful and inspiring. I love hearing how people got their start, how their businesses evolved, and what they’re thinking about creatively and strategically. Each episode leaves me feeling up to date on industry trends and news, but also connected to the human side of the work. It strikes a rare balance between being informative and genuinely enjoyable to listen to.

I’ve been a part of the design and home furnishings industry for over 20 years and this podcast is an amazing platform! Cross connecting retail, manufacturers and designers from all over the world, I learn so much with each episode. Always enjoy listening!

This is one of my favorite podcasts! I’m just a design enthusiast, but Dennis and Fred make every aspect, from interviews to top topics so interesting and entertaining. I look forward to each episode!

Fun pace and even a bit lighthearted but with depth and respect for topics and guests. Very fun to listen to!!

I love this podcast. Dennis has so much insight. He respects the designers and the audience. He brings so much knowledge to the interviews. A pleasure to share in his experience.
