(RUN TIME - 17:00)

Welcome to The BG Podcast! Conversations at the intersection of business, community, and public policy, from the Austin metro and around Texas.

Today we speak with Jim O'Brien, Host of The Lobbying Show, a podcast about the world of lobbying: how it works, who’s lobbying, and how to be effective.

Each week Jim interview's government affairs professionals and lobbyists to get their perspective on the industry.

Jim, on his first visit to Austin, spoke with Bingham Group CEO A.J. about his podcast's development, lessons for professionals thinking about doing a podcast, and of course, lobbying.

Jim is also the Founder of The Connecticut Group, LLC, a government affairs and public relations firm.

This episode was originally recorded on August 15, 2019.
