This week’s episode spans a wide range of topics – Canadian advertisements, Squarespace, and Spain, just to name a few. With Joel doing so much travel lately and Chris getting ready to undertake his own travel, it’s time for some sillier episodes!
Chris finally got over being sick! Joel has some travel coming up for work so we discuss why taking the time to meet with clients face-to-face can be good. We also tackle how to deal with the inevitable after-meeting drinks and shenanigans you might find yourself in while on a business trip.
Amidst sickness and Drynuary, Chris and Joel give some advice on financials and whether you should “tighten the belt”. Surprisingly, Joel says to look to video games for the answer!
This week’s big topic of discussion is podcasting! Joel is planning to start a new music podcast so Joel and Chris give some advice on pitfalls to avoid while scheming your own podcast. The future plans of NARJ itself also get discussed since it’s officially the new year now. We’d love to know what kinds of things you’d like to see from us at NARJ in 2015, so let us know!
2015 is mere hours away! As is tradition at this time of year, we discussed some of our own resolutions for the new year. We also laid out a few resolutions that we think might be beneficial for you this year! Let us know what you think and we’ll see you next year!
