Big Conversations. No Filler.

Big and Lazy is the interview podcast hosted by Big B Fines, where creatives, entrepreneurs, and musicians sit down and actually talk. No surface-level questions, no PR-polished answers. Just real conversations with the people building something worth talking about.

From Louisville legends shaping the Black community to independent artists and business owners grinding toward their vision, we bring the stories that matter. Every episode is a reminder that behind every success is a person who didn't know how it would work out — and did it anyway.

New episodes every week on YouTube, Patreon, and every major audio streaming platform.

If you're tired of interviews that waste your time, Big and Lazy is built for you.

Your story deserves a seat.

From soccer player to construction boss to casino content creator: Money Made JR breaks down his multi-platform business strategy, Vegas wins/losses, and 30-sponsorship deals.

Money Made JR is a Louisville-based multi-platform entrepreneur scaling three primary income streams: a construction subcontracting operation with 9-10 employees (generating consistent monthly cash flow), casino content creation across TikTok (40-50K followers), Instagram (15-20K), and YouTube (10-12K subscribers), and a record label investing profits back into music production and video content.

His strategy balances high-risk, high-reward plays (casino banking and content sponsorships) with stable, scalable business infrastructure (construction). Currently managing 30 pending sponsorship deals worth $1,400 each while planning monthly Vegas filming trips. Advocates for consistency, reading the room, and refusing to stop despite setbacks.
