E495: Brett Cohen (https://www.linkedin.com/in/brettrcohen/ add him, say you found him through this show), Executive Director, Production and Partner Experience at Forbes, comes on the podcast!

He talks about preparing for the Forbes Under 30 Summit, cold calling Sony in 2012 to get them to allow a flagged YouTube video using copyrighted music, finding celebrity contact information, getting Kim Kardashian on his podcast as a 17-year-old kid, press release marketing, and more.

He's one of the most resourceful people I know when it comes to media.
