In this week's episode of Out of Focus, we talk about the dark hand of Facebook and the power it has over our businesses as seen by the blackout last week. I talk to Greg Steele, a lawyer in South Carolina about what it is that we can even do about the power that Google, Facebook, and Amazon have over all information. Spoiler: Probably nothing. 

Greg also brings us insights from the world of Law Firm Advertising, a world known for cheesy commercials. Now that people are watching TV less and less, where do lawyer ads go from here?

Hey guys, didn't plan on making this episode, but after finally thinking about last week and the craziness of all the travel for Robert Schoolfield's project, I use this episode to reflect. It's raw, the audio quality isn't great, but I needed to get this out there.

I've been on the road this week with artist Robert Schoolfield documenting his project Special Delivery, where he's dropping off paintings across the US in various public spaces. I've had the honor to shoot photos and video of the project, and Robert is gonna tell you what it's all about in this episode of the podcast! Enjoy!

We're back! Starting Out of Focus with a new monthly tradition: Movie of the Month! I'm a big movie buff and I need a place to talk about this stuff, so why not talk movies once a month on the podcast? It's part of the visual arts, right??

Stay tuned for Robert Schoolfield's return next week as we go on the road for his project "Special Delivery"! We'll be headed to DC, Philly, NYC, and Chicago, and I'll be documenting the whole way.

Guys, it's here. 

For those who don't know, my wife and I have an annual Christmas podcast where we talk about a different film version of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol. I've decided to release it on this feed as well this time around, but you can access the official You, Me, and Carol feed here for all past episodes of the show. 

This year, we watch the origin story to The Christmas Carol titled "The Man Who Invented Christmas". We had a great time with it, and we highly recommend that you watch it as well!

Sit back, grab some cookies, and listen to two total professionals talk about Christmas Carol related dealings. 

Merry Christmas, Everyone.
