A little experience goes a long way.

Kortni Lee parlayed her ability to use email and eBay into a job at Starcom where she was assigned to the new Internet Protocol (IP) group.

In this edition of Frap Rap, Aaron Goldman (GDogggggggg) reconnects with “Lee Kortini” (KSummerLee) to revisit the days when NetSol ruled the world, PalmPilots were cutting-edge, and “L” stood for Lotus Notes and LimeWire.

Plus: a quick spin through some old-school photos, a lot of talk about Indiana, and a freestyle rap about Coach Cignetti. 😎

How did a “misfit kid” become a senior agency exec and pioneering innovation consultant?

Aaron Goldman (GDogggggggg) catches up with Saneel Radia (SASaneel) in the latest episode of Frap Rap to revisit the early days of digital advertising, where 100-hour workweeks built lasting bonds, and discuss why the same transformational mindset that built the Internet is shaping today’s AI era.

Tune in to hear stories from Saneel about working on the US Army and Miller accounts, running the first broadband upfront for pre-roll video, and how he ended up leaving the Groupe only to get roped back in after Publicis bought BBH.

And of course, you won’t want to miss AG’s freestyle rap at the end and see what he rhymes with “Rishad-ism.”

It's part reunion, part industry history, and all heart.
