Hey everybody, Chris here. We're trying something a little bit different than what we normally do for the podcast.

0:04.8

We're doing solo episodes, these are shorter, more contained.

0:07.5

Built around certain themes and questions I think are very relevant for us to be talking about.

0:11.3

So wherever you're listening to this, however you're seeing this, let us know in the comments and the feedback, what you think, and we'll make some adjustments. I'm going to talk about another Scott Galloway concept of Professor G episode and he says

0:44.6

virtual reality is here but it's not happening in the eyes it's happening in the

ears he says if you think about it that's what podcasts are we're able to

1:26.3

And I just did not want to do that, but in that kind of classic Godfather thing, he made me an offer.

1:32.0
