This is Bob Hoffman, author of advertising for skeptics, and you are listening to authors in quarantine getting cocktails.

Hello and welcome to this hopefully short-lived series that will be airing in

addition to the weekly marketing book podcast interviews. I'm your host

Douglas Burdett and my goal is to reconnect you with past guests on the marketing book podcast

share some ideas and inspiration and maybe a much needed laugh or two.

I've interviewed over 200 authors on the show and my plan is to

continue this series until I run out of authors or quarantine, whichever comes first. A word of

warning, the host and guest may very likely be consuming

cocktails during these conversations. If you'd like to join the

conversation go to marketingbook podcast.com and click on the orange button

to record your question or comment, and I may include

it in a future episode. I'd love to hear from you. Otherwise, connect with you on LinkedIn

where we can chat. So Bob Hoffman, welcome to authors in quarantine getting

cocktails. How are you? It's great, it's great to be getting a cocktail.

I'll tell you that.

And talking to you isn't bad, but getting the cocktail is really good.

Yeah, you know, well, I had to make it cocktails or none of these authors would want to come

back for a conversation.

And hey, you know, I acknowledge that. I conversation and hey I you know I acknowledge that I

understand that but you know Bob Hoffman I think people may not remember you

may there may be some new listeners who don't know about Bob Hoffman and Bob Hoffman is the

and sorry to talk about you like you're in the third person but you know I am in the third
