62: Let's Talk Product Strategy

Jake & Jonathan kick-off the first episode of the new year by diving _straight into_ prodā€¦ no, they start by rambling for a good long while. But itā€™s good rambling: new year goals, journaling, setting OKRs, and Jonathanā€™s mom meets a random Irish guy that knows Jake. šŸ˜‚ But then! Then Jake and Jonathan talk about a super interesting article about advertising business models and going beyond them. Itā€™s a good one! šŸ¤‘
