Episode 3: This Is Where Most People Quit

Most people talk about starting a business. Oscar Lopez actually did it. In this episode, I sit down with Oscar Lopez, a former law enforcement officer who didn’t just “make the leap”—he built it from the ground up. He started with a hot dog cart… working events, figuring it out in real time. Now he’s taking on his biggest move yet—remodeling a historic building in Cameron, Texas to open his own brick-and-mortar: 1864 Grill. This is what building actually looks like: – Starting before you feel ready – Taking risks without guarantees – Figuring it out as you go If you’ve ever thought about starting something… or you’re already in the grind—this one’s for you. 👇 Follow the journey.

Episode 2: He Built an AI Hunting App From a Deer Stand… | GameSTALKR

What started as an idea sitting in a deer stand is now becoming a powerful AI-driven tool for hunters. In this episode of Building With Bruno, I sit down with Cody, founder of GameSTALKR, to talk about how he turned a real problem in the field into a tech solution designed to help hunters identify deer, track movement, and make smarter decisions—especially on shared land. We dive into the moment the idea clicked, the process of building an app from scratch, and how AI is starting to change the way people approach hunting and land management. This episode is about more than hunting—it’s about solving real problems, taking action, and building something from nothing. If you’re into entrepreneurship, tech, or the outdoors, you’ll get a lot out of this one.

Episode 0: Why I’m Starting This Podcast

This is where it starts. In Episode 0, I break down who I am, how I got here, and why I’m launching the Building With Bruno podcast. I’m not coming from a place of “I’ve made it.” I’m in the middle of it. I talk about: * Buying Big T’s and what that journey has really looked like * Where the business is today (~$600K) and the push toward $1M+ * The challenges—sales, systems, and figuring things out in real time * Why I started Zero Hour and what it represents * And why I think there’s a gap in content around real, unfiltered business building This podcast is about documenting the journey, having real conversations with other builders, and learning as we go. If you’re building something—or thinking about it—this is for you.
