2nd fave podcast

Fantastic podcast. I could listen to Rus talking about the phone book. I’m fast catching up on all the eps. Could never quite beat my #1 podcast Somehow Related. Sorry boys 🙂

Thought provoking

Love Gruen so am pleased to have a podcast like this available. I’m not in the industry but recall how fascinating I found marketing when studying for an MBA. It’s fascinating how this subject transcends so many aspects of society. Worth listening to!
