  • Brews & BizDev - Debating the Merits of (Verbally) Punching Nazis Online with Jonathan Mahan

    In this episode of Brews & BizDev, we do something a little different...

    Paul Greiner of Renoun Creative engages Jonathan Mahan, creator of the Courageous Conversations series, about the relative merits of verbally "punching Nazis" online.

    Yeah there's little to no "bizdev" to be found in this episode, nor is it an interview, so much as an alcohol-fueled debate about how to interact with hateful extremists.

    For the record, Jon's being fueled by Sam Adams '76, and Paul's enjoying a Powerful Pils by Community Beer Works.

    Enjoy, and let us know what YOU think!

    So here it is, 12ish minutes of rapid-fire insights and spit-takes from a slew of kickass professionals from 26 conversations over the course of a crazy year. Enjoy. We certainly did.
