And the podcast has a new look and feel this week (if you watch on Youtube anyways!)

This week I talk about the plan to get Unscheduled as a brand to its first million in revenue. It’s going to be a long road, but it’s exciting to start something new again!

Oh, and you can write into the show now too (more on that in the episode).

Enjoy!

This week I talk about the biggest problem i’m seeing with CEO’s using AI tools. Hint: THEY’RE MAKING LESS MONEY BECAUSE OF IT.

But it’s even worse then that, because while they make less money, they get more and more lost in the AI-HOLE.

Listen or watch on Youtube for the full breakdown.

Oh and also I review a can of sparkling water.

Thanks to everyone for listening to this absolutely useless nonsense. I love you all.
