Dennis Meador
CEO & Founder
Dennis Meador is the CEO and Founder and is dedicated to bringing turnkey podcasting solutions to professionals across the United States, particularly attorneys. With over 20 years of experience in marketing for the legal profession, he is passionate about helping attorneys engage more clients and establish themselves as authorities in their specific areas of practice.
His entrepreneurial spirit has been evident since his teenage years, when he built his first business at just 14, selling snow shoveling, lawn mowing, or paper route jobs while his team did the work. This knack for business continued throughout his career, where he successfully grew three companies from under $1 million in revenue to over $3-5 million within just 1-3 years.
His background is rooted in business and podcasting. In 2019, he had a successful podcast focusing on food, music, and life in Austin, TX. This experience gave him a unique perspective as he created high-quality podcasts. Now, he combines these passions to offer innovative solutions for legal professionals.
Initially an Air Force brat who moved frequently, he eventually settled in Iowa for some of his childhood and most of his teenage years. He attended college in Ohio and later moved to Tulsa, OK, before making Austin, TX, his home. Outside of work, he enjoys spending time with his wife and chatting with his three grown children—Joe, Kai, and Isabella. He also enjoys traveling, snorkeling, and making BBQ on his smoker—The Notorious P.I.T.
Ben Buono

Ben Buono got his start in the sales world at Web.com, where he eventually would meet Dennis Meador, The Legal Podcast Network’s founder.

This would become a monumental achievement that would lead to him eventually starting his own web design business, Velvet Letters Web Design, where he ended up finding legal representation because of a podcast he was on. Turned out to be The Legal Podcast Network and Ben contacted Dennis to officially join his team as a Show Coordinator in hopes to help attorneys reach others like him who need representation but don’t even know where to begin.
