5. Serbian-American Entrepreneur: Andy Verich
Jul 08, 2023 Season 1 Episode 5
Every Week English

This time we have a special guest from church here in Moscow: Andy Verich.  A Serbian-American from the cold backwoods of Wisconsin.  He's a successful entrepreneur, businessman, and family man who talks about: the secrets of construction equipment, and his service in the US Army.  What makes a good business? Is there a difference between the civilian way of life versus the military way? What was it like for an American to visit the Soviet Union? All these questions and more are answered!

Idioms: Run around in circles = to do something with no results, On cloud nine = to feel extremely happy, Left out in the cold = to not be appreciated, Pick yourself up by the bootstraps = to build yourself from nothing with no help

Extra Words used: Dilapidated = a building that is old and not in use, DIY = Do It Yourself, Exceptionalism = you can do anything, Desk Jockey = someone who sits behind a desk with no real experience
