04.26.17 | This week on The Focus Group we address the trend where large companies are increasingly making small suppliers wait twice as long to get paid as in the recent past. It is having a devastating affect on small businesses when it comes to reinvestment, development, and human resources. But first, get out and help support your local LGBTQ non-profits. Dining Out for Life and the Keystone Gay Rodeo are two such organizations that raise money for local LGBTQ organizations. Find a "friend" through a new app: GAYBFF. Tim and John talk about the 20 year anniversary of Ellen's coming out and the ambiguous VW commercial that ran during the broadcast—the ad with the 2 guys and a smelly chair. We're they friends or a couple?
