Marketing Geeks

Ep #122 - The Marketing Geeks bring you the latest updates in the world as of October 30th, 2020. We're 4 days out from an election that may have some mild stakes and we're simultaneously at the forefront of a murder hornet invasion of the United States with Washington as ground zero. Even more shocking than all of this is the demise of Quibi, everyone's favorite shortform content streaming app that we all thought was thriving until it suddenly disappeared... I even ordered the trial. Andros has been deeply emotionally affected by Quibi's shutdown and we're forced to do a bit of psychiatric counseling LIVE on air. Most importantly of all, an A.I. scientist has REVEALED the truth behind why aliens have not visited earth and it's probably very close to being verified.
