Sit down and strap in for another white knuckle ride through the breaking news on Monday's Shop Talk with Mark Brickey and Sean Mort. The boys are once again taking the most pressing questions straight form Instagram Stories that range from dream wrestling matches to where to draw the line on a deal. We listen to some listener feedback on the recent interview with AIGA and what everyone thinks about the promises made and the challenges presented by Mark and AID to help make a giant in our industry a more relevant one. This Shop Talk also focuses in on how we select guests, what they bring to the table, and where AID is planning on going as the show continues to evolve. We're all in this together and Mark and Sean are here to help build a tight knit community of creatives who are driven on designing happiness into their lives.
