About the show

AI, translated.
Twice a week.
No hype.

The Shift AI Show is a 45-minute live show for small business owners who are tired of AI headlines and want to know how to actually use it today.

Every episode starts with a real problem from a real business, and ends with a prompt, workflow, or tool you can ship today. No jargon. No enterprise buzzwords.

Jesse and Chris run the live demos, break things on purpose, and answer your questions in the mailbag. Miss the broadcast? Every episode is on demand on YouTube.

The two people you'll meet every Tue & Fri.

One runs the demos. The other keeps the demos from going sideways. Both read every mailbag submission.
