Seth Godin is one of those rare people who gets you thinking about things differently. Today, he joins me to help explain the importance of having a strategy – and how strategy is not the same thing as a plan or a goal. He has wonderful examples to illustrate how a great strategy can propel your success - including strategies from AirBnB, the inventors of the telephone and more. Seth Godin is author of 21 international bestselling books, he has given 5 TED talks and his latest book is This Is Strategy: Make Better Plans (https://amzn.to/4gbhZ14).
Beer just may be the most important beverage in the history of the world – perhaps the universe! That’s what my guest Jonny Garrett believes and is going to explain. Beer has been made for thousands of years and by every civilization. It was the first alcoholic drink ever made and by all accounts it revolutionized the world in extraordinary ways. Yet beer is a delicate drink. Light, air and heat can ruin it in a matter of minutes. And many people store their beer all wrong. Jonny will help you correct all that. Jonny Garrett is an award-winning author, journalist, filmmaker and podcaster as well as the cofounder of the Craft Beer Channel on YouTube https://craftbeerchannel.com/. He is also author of the book The Meaning of Beer: One Man's Search for Purpose in His Pint (https://amzn.to/41cVtRg).
