Today The Zweig Letter Podcast is more than just a branding tool for Zweig Group. It is a platform for elevating the AEC industry, one story at a time. That’s one of the reasons we decided to do a rebrand of our logo and other associated materials for the podcast. You need to slap on a fresh coat of paint to turn something old new again. So, if you used to be a listener of The Zweig Letter Podcast but stopped listening, or you’ve just been rotating out new shows, we encourage you to tune in again. Add us to your current podcast rotation and check out the direction we are headed. There is always a new and fresh topic for you to consider. If you are new to the podcast or podcasting in general, now is your chance to dive headfirst into great content. You can find us on all major podcasting platforms, including Apple Podcast, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Audible, Google, Amazon, etc. Also, keep in mind that we are available on most smart speakers like Alexa.
