I enjoy all the episodes. Each one has at least a few takeaways.
very much enjoyed this episode. I do wish that Rob would not talk over and chime in so much. there's enthusiasm and there's just too much. he's well informed and interesting, it would be something he might consider as he listens back over this interview.
