Podcast #3: Behind the Bagel Biz

So, what the heck is a Cleveland bagel? Dan Herbst from Cleveland Bagel Co. talks about re-inventing an ages-old breakfast staple, explains where exactly Knife City is, tells the story about the company's Glastonbury-high bagel flag and dishes on his ever-appropriate rivalry with Donut (no, not the food). We also chat about the future of bulk schmear, what makes great business partnerships and how he hired the company's first employee.


Small Batch Dispatch is a podcast for makers and entrepreneurs who know it's not all Pinterest and cupcakes when you run a small, creative business. A co-production of Indie Foundry and the Cleveland Flea, the series features stories about the people behind the products and the life behind the business.
