The New England OCR Expo returned for its 4th year and it was the second time being at the venue of Ultimate Obstacles!
Katelyn spent the whole time at our table trying to get some more people to follow our social media and subscribe to the show. Mike spent the entire event interviewing all the vendors, some athletes, and plugged into the speakers for the speeches, and awards. The day went by way too fast and there were easily 20+ people who we wish we interviewed to have on the show as well!
This episode is part 2 of 2 and has the Teddy Bear Crawl announcement, speeches, awards, and about 9 more interviews!
