The big rebrand and relaunch is less than one month away! So get psyched!
In the meantime… something completely different…
I’ve been enjoying presenting episodes from some of podcast friends. So, here’s an episode of Famous & Gravy. On each episode, host Michael Osborne and guests look at the life of a famous dead celebrity and ask themselves if it’s a life they would’ve wanted. The show gets into all sorts of things you will not in that person’s official obituary or biography. I’m a fan. Here’s how they describe today’s episode:
This person died 2011, age of 56. He dropped out of Reed College in 1972 and once said that taking LSD was among the most important things he ever did. In the early years of his career, his obsession with detail drove colleagues crazy, but later he inspired extraordinary loyalty. In the 1990s he bought a small computer graphics spinoff from George Lucas and built it into Pixar. He told the world he would step down as Apple’s CEO if he could no longer meet expectations — and then he did. Today’s dead celebrity is Steve Jobs.
