Entrepreneurs on Fire

John Lee Dumas has published a new episode of Entrepreneurs on Fire every single day since 2012. That's not a typo -- the show drops seven days a week and has accumulated over 4,500 episodes and 175 million total listens. The sheer volume is both the show's defining feature and its competitive advantage. No other entrepreneurship podcast comes close to that output. Each episode follows a tight format: JLD interviews a successful entrepreneur, digs into their journey, extracts their key lessons, and keeps the whole thing under 30 minutes. The brevity is intentional. JLD knows his audience -- busy founders and aspiring entrepreneurs who want concentrated insight they can absorb during a commute or workout. The consistency of the format means you always know what you're getting, which has built an intensely loyal listener base. JLD's own story adds credibility. After leaving the Army, he struggled to find his path before launching EOFire. He's been transparent about his revenue (the show has generated seven figures in net annual income for eight consecutive years) and publishes monthly income reports. His book, The Common Path to Uncommon Success, codifies his 17-step framework for building a business. In January 2026, he served as master of ceremonies at the Podcast Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony at Podfest Expo. The daily format means some episodes hit harder than others, which is inevitable at this volume. But the archive is enormous and searchable, and the best episodes contain genuinely actionable advice from founders who have built real businesses. For someone early in their entrepreneurial journey who wants daily motivation paired with tactical insights, EOFire delivers more consistently than any other show in the space.
