DAVE NOLL -- WHY GETTING CHOPPED IS GOOD

Imagine if your job is selling a product that is likely be rejected by 29 out of 30 buyers. Those are terrible odds. Well if you're a TV producer trying to sell new shows, that's a pretty typical fail rate. On this episode I speak with Dave Noll, a wildly successful TV producer who has created, pitched and sold some of the most iconic TV shows in history, including the Food Network mega-hit franchise, Chopped. But Dave's path to the chopping block was loaded with booby traps, ridiculous detours, and, at one point, an angry butler and a dog. I'm telling you right now, it's a miracle any TV shows get made. In this really fun conversation, Dave shares his rocky road to the top of the TV heap and how every rejection is actually a positive thing. Plus, to keep him nervous, we play a very fun game where I test his knowledge of TV shows about sex. His answers genuinely surprise me. If you want to follow along with Dave's amazing adventures in the crazy world of creating and selling TV shows, you can follow him on LinkedIn, Instagram or Twitter @davenolltv. Even if you're not a TV geek like me, all of his stories are inspiring and ridiculously entertaining.
