Harvey and Dave find themselves back together, standing side by side at the banks of a river that is well known to both of them.
Except. The River has changed. And. So have Harvey and Dave.
Mart and The Fishbowl gets a warm and thoughtful goodbye. Like a Viking funeral, the name gets gently placed on a wooden raft, let go downstream, and struck with a flaming arrow, sending it into its afterlife. Left standing is Mart and Dave, and in this first episode, the two waste no time diving deep into the swirling waters they now find themselves in, in this current season of life.
- How have the identities, characters, and personas changed over the years?
- Where has disruption and discomfort left its mark?
- What do the current models of transaction and transformation look, sound, and feel like in the different mediums they find themselves in?
- Why do you receive D-game introductions?
Join us as we navigate the ebbs and flows of this current waterway we all find ourselves floating down.
