JOSH LUEBKER, PRESS AND MEDIA.
Podcast appearances, webinar presentations, conference speaking engagements, and published content featuring Josh Luebker, founder of Sulphur Prairie Management and The Construction CFO. Every appearance listed here has been publicly cited by the host platform, crediting Josh directly. This page is updated as new appearances are confirmed. There are 18 on this page: 9 podcast appearances, 5 webinars and recorded interviews, 1 conference session and 3 published pieces. Every one links to where the host published it.
Read the links rather than the count. A list of logos proves nothing, and a credited host with a dated episode and a URL that resolves proves the only thing worth proving here, which is that somebody else thought the material was worth putting their audience in front of.
NINE SHOWS, REAL HOSTS, REAL LINKS.

HOSTED BY THE PLATFORMS THEMSELVES.
These sit slightly differently from a podcast. A software company or a lender putting somebody in front of their own customer base is a commercial decision on their part, which is a different kind of citation from a host booking an interesting guest.

THREE PIECES, THREE DIFFERENT ROLES.
Worth separating, because they carry different weight. One is written by Josh. One is written about him by somebody else. One quotes him as the expert the piece is built on. A page that lumps all three together as "featured in" is doing the reader a disservice, and the third kind is the hardest to earn.
