Profitable Podcasting [Review]

by William | Book Reviews

Profitable Podcasting: Grow Your Business, Expand Your Platform, and Build a Nation of True Fans—look, I really, really didn’t enjoy reading this book, and before I get into why I’m glad I did anyway, I just want to get all this pent up bullshit out...
What The Hell Did I Just Read [Review]

What The Hell Did I Just Read [Review]

by William | Book Reviews, Reviews

What the Hell Did I Just Read, by David Wong, aka, Jason Pargin is the third book in the ridiculous sci-fi, fantasy, horror, whatever novel series John Dies at the End. This series of books just happens to be among my favorites of all time, next to Wong’s other...

Stamped from the Beginning [Review]

by William | Book Reviews

I have started, and stopped and started, and deleted, and started and deleted and started again, on this write up of Stamped from the Beginning by Ibram X. Kendi at least half a dozen times. There’s some part of me that feels like a ‘review’ is...

The Coaching Habit [Review]

by William | Book Reviews

The Coaching Habit by Michael Bungay Stanier is either really good or aggressively mediocre, depending what else you’ve already read. The book is aimed at helping managers and small business owners stop being the deus ex machina. The god in the machine. The one...
Go For No [Review]

Go For No [Review]

by William | Book Reviews

Go For No might just be my least favorite book on the topic of sales that I have ever read. Not because the advice is bad, but because it reads a little like cult propaganda. How it got more than a thousand 4 and 5 star reviews on Amazon I’ll never know. Lets...

Susan Sontag was a writer, philosopher and activist. She was born in 1933, did some stuff, and died in 2004. During that “doing some stuff” phase, she was politically outspoken with a brand that has since become the archetypical caricature of leftist nut jobs. In the...
