The Friend: I met Erik as a college freshman, but our friendship really blossomed in the summer of 1998. It is an honor to have Erik on the show as he is one of the pioneers of the podcast medium itself. He is a sought after speaker at media curation, leadership, and productivity events. But I remember his humble beginnings on terrestrial radio for the IWU campus station. In my senior year, I was a frequent guest on his night time show “A Case of the Mondays,” but that, as they say, is another story. You can find more about Erik at Beyond The To Do List.
