Episode notes

I think things are still very, very, very early. Like I was listening to the founder of Brave and essentially how they they kind of see it going is that you are using this browser or using these apps. And instead of like these basic tokens that you know, you buy in a video game or whatever for points, everyone's just using that. There's so much more happening. The whole point with the bad is that eventually you won't even know what it is. You will just be it will be that user experience will be so seamless.

Today Josh speaks with Roy Steves about the chaotic life of the marketing and agency world.

Some of the topics we dive into are:

The emotional rollercoaster of starting and maintaining a marketing agency.
The issues of incentives, scope creep, and managing expectations with clients.
Advice for young people getting into marketing and the agency world.
What Roy and I would do differently if we had to start again.
Escapism, imposter syndrome, and the trappings of success.
Existential threats, and the importance of therapy for entrepreneurs.
AI, machine learning, and the unexpected implications of complex systems.
Crypto, Brave, and BAT.
The future disruptions in digital marketing, social media, and the attention economy.
And lots more.
