Introducing The PE Podcast: Private Equity for Sponsors, Searchers, and Business Owners — Joshua Wilson

There are two sides to every deal. On one side, the sponsor underwriting what a business could be worth in five years. On the other, the owner who built it and gets one shot at getting the transaction right.Most private equity shows talk to one of those sides. This one talks to both.EPISODE SUMMARYThe PE Podcast is a show for both sides of the deal table. Host Joshua Wilson, founder of One Iron Network, introduces a program covering deals, ownership, investing, and operating — with sponsors, independent sponsors, search fund entrepreneurs, family offices investing directly, operating partners, and acquisition lenders on one side, and founder-CEOs, second-generation owners, and lower-middle-market sellers on the other. Expect practical conversations about how deals actually get done: how buyers underwrite a business, what an owner needs to understand before signing a letter of intent, and what the people who have sat at that table learned from the wins and the failures. No pitches. No predictions.🎯 What We CoverWhy most private equity shows speak to one side of the table, and what gets missedWho the show is for on the sponsor side: funds, independent sponsors, searchers, family offices investing directly, operating partners, and lendersWho it is for on the owner side: founder-CEOs weighing an exit, second-generation owners in succession, and operators approached by a buyerWhat "one transaction that matters" means for an owner who spent a career building itHow sponsors think about a business across a five-year holdWhy the lender, the operator, the advisor, and the owner each read the same deal differentlyWhat a few thousand interviews taught Joshua about useful conversationsThe format: no pitches, no predictions, no market callsWhere the show lives, and how to get on it🎙️ Follow The PE Podcast 🌐 thePEpodcast.com 💼 linkedin.com/in/joshuabrucewilson/ ▶️ youtube.com/@thePEpodcast 🏢 A One Iron Network production — oneironnetwork.comDisclaimer: Joshua Wilson is a licensed Florida real estate broker (BK3038350) and holds FINRA Series 79 and Series 63 licensure.
