The Day One List
The Day One List is the podcast about the people you call first.
Every successful career, business, and life is built on relationships. Behind every opportunity is someone who believed in you, challenged you, opened a door, or showed up when it mattered most.
Hosted by Hunter Schwenke with co-host Andru Morgan, each episode features honest conversations with business leaders, entrepreneurs, and community builders as they share the people, decisions, and moments that shaped their journey.
Through recurring segments like The Day One Decision, Hired or Fired, Who’s On Your Day One List?, and The Day One Challenge, every episode delivers practical leadership insights and relationship lessons listeners can apply immediately.
Because a Day One List isn’t built when you need people it’s built long before you do.
Who’s on your Day One List?
