Today's Dropping Bombs episode brings back Matt Ebert — founder and CEO of Crash Champions, and the man who built a $3 billion collision repair empire from starting with just a single shop.

Matt breaks down what it actually takes to scale a business, the real opportunity hiding in blue-collar trades, and why skilled workers are about to become the most valuable people in the workforce.

If you've ever wondered whether the trades are worth it, or how someone builds something this big from nothing, this one's for you.
