Stories Mean Business - Nick Warren

Nick Warren

About

One idea a day. Every day. But just the first draft!

After 1,000 episodes, the jury is in – this is the world's slackest podcast. 5-minutes a day on story, strategy or whatever's yanked my chain. No guests. No ads. No apologies.

This is me thinking out loud, putting things together, going down dead ends and making mistakes. It's more a forcing function than anything, but I'm okay with that.

Thanks for listening.
