Podcast summary That episode where I walk around the Upper West Side and Central Park on election day. Some photos of the New York City Marathon finish line (it's still up!) and some jibber jabber about why traditional marketing culture sucks for successful sales.

Podcast summary

That episode where I walk around the Upper West Side on the first day of November, the last day of the Daylight Saving Time, the day after Halloween and the day before the New York City Marathon. I took my camera along with me and added random images to random timestamps (check your podcast player!). I also talk about the challenges of your running your own business (or, podcast, as the case may be).

Upon Consideration…

Reflections on leadership, technology, change.

The shorty episode where I walk around Central Park and the Upper West Side a few days before the 2025 New York City Marathon. Slow productivity. Digital photography. Film photography. Leadership.

How amazing is the Upper West Side? New York Marathon, Thanksgiving Day Parade (balloons), When Harry Met Sally, Seinfeld, The Beacon, American Museum of Natural History. (Pretty amazing!)

Talking Kool-Aid and how leaders and individual contributors shouldn't drink too much corporate culture.

AI note: I used ChatGPT for reformat the transcript. Which, if I'm honest, I don't feel great about.

The episode where I walk around a foggy Central Park after a nor'easter misses the city. Extreme phone minimalism, OpenAI, Sam Altman. Something about opposites attract.
