0:05.2 | VaynerNation, how are you excited for a fresh new non-proback, non-edited from some sort of keynote |
0:12.3 | episode here live in Hudson Yards at the office? Really dynamic individual here that I think is |
0:20.2 | going to be able to give some insights and inspiration to a lot of people that are on their |
0:23.7 | journey of really creating content around a passion or trying to achieve attention in a modern |
0:32.4 | digital media landscape. And so when this opportunity arrives, I was like, this is actually the |
