517 - The Inauguration of Donald Trump

Mark and Sean return on an important day for the history books. As (allegedly) millions of people filled into Washington DC to welcome the 45th President into office The People's Champ and your favorite podcaster went over the questions you all have about business, creativity, and well crafted underwear. How important is a logo to the success of your business? When should you take down an old piece if its still selling? What sort of scheduling apps does AID use for social media? No stone is left unturned and the International Bromance is joined by special correspondent JVP to go over his future plans that involve branding, planning, and action. All this and some color commentary over Trump's Inaugural Speech as he addresses a nation of confused yet hopeful people. Antics most definitely ensue.
