This week on Houston Hustle, Dr. Paige Ward and Dr. Charlie Ward sit down with Feldman and Lee Trial Attorneys founder David Feldman for a raw and honest conversation about entrepreneurship, resilience, and the reality behind personal injury law.

David shares how he went from working in high-profile family law cases to building a personal injury firm from a spare bedroom with little more than a vision, peanut butter sandwiches, and relentless work ethic. From surviving the uncertainty of COVID shutdowns to navigating hiring nightmares, crazy courtroom stories, and battles with insurance companies, this episode dives deep into what it truly takes to build a business from the ground up.

The conversation also explores leadership, company culture, social media authenticity, expansion into new Texas markets, and why David refuses to become another “billboard lawyer.” Along the way, he shares unforgettable stories from his legal career that sound straight out of a movie.

If you’re an entrepreneur, business owner, or someone chasing a vision through the chaos, this episode is packed with real lessons, real hustle, and real Houston energy.

In this episode of Houston Hustle, we sit down with Josh and Sergio, the founders behind OdderTech—a fast-growing IT company taking a boots-on-the-ground approach to building something real in Houston.

From knocking on doors and getting kicked out of office buildings… to solving complex cybersecurity issues and building custom anime PCs that go viral online—this is entrepreneurship in its rawest form.

We dive into: • What it really takes to start and grow an IT business from scratch • The uncomfortable reality of cold outreach and how it built their brand • Why small businesses are overlooked—and how they turned that into an advantage • The truth about AI, cybersecurity threats, and what every business owner needs to know • Wild client stories (yes… including viruses you don’t want to explain 😅)

This episode is a reminder that success isn’t polished—it’s built through rejection, persistence, and showing up when it’s uncomfortable.

If you’re an entrepreneur, business owner, or just someone trying to figure it out as you go… this one’s for you.

Real hustle. Real stories. Real Houston.

On this episode of the Houston Hustle, we sit down with Robert and Christine Prohl, the owners of Odin's Place previously known as Dragon’s Lair Comics and Fantasy, one of the most unique and community-driven businesses in Houston.

What started as a long-time dream turned into something much bigger than a comic and game store. Dragon’s Lair has become a place where people from all walks of life come together to connect, compete, and belong.

But this story is not just about building a business.

Robert opens up about his past, including a major life mistake that changed everything and forced him to rebuild from the ground up. What followed was a bold decision to bet everything on a dream, using a small inheritance to launch a business in an industry they had no prior experience in.

From learning retail on the fly, to surviving COVID, to completely reinventing their business model, to building a full-scale tabletop tavern inside their store, Robert and Christine share what it really takes to create something meaningful.

You will hear how they built a loyal community, why they believe in saying yes before you feel ready, and how they continue to evolve, expand, and push forward even when the path is unclear.

This episode is about resilience, second chances, and the power of creating a space where people feel like they belong.

If you are building something, rebuilding something, or dreaming about starting something, this conversation will challenge and inspire you.

Jason shares how growing up in a family construction business shaped his work ethic and entrepreneurial mindset. After more than a decade working in infrastructure projects across California and Hawaii, he made the bold decision to move to Texas and start building something of his own.

The conversation dives into the realities of land development, including how projects can take years before a single home is built, the importance of infrastructure and utilities, and the long-term planning required to scale a business in this industry.
