Boy! What a week.
\n\nJP and Steve talk about a lot of things, including the new Star Wars movie... although they don't spoil it, really, they do make some great spoiler horn noises.
\n\nThe conversation moves from holiday plans and what we both got as presents into JP asking Steve about whether or not he feels brands are necessary... and wow, did he step on a landmine!
\n\nWe get into talking about Apple, whether or not they were successful without Steve Jobs, how the brand continued through the Next era and into the return of Steve Jobs, and whether or not Apple is still innovating.
\n\nSpoiler: One of us says yes, and the other is skeptical. YOU'LL HAVE TO LISTEN TO KNOW WHO!

This week, we talk about Steve's new job, a would you rather, the need to read, and some of our favorite recent things.
\n\nWe talk about the desire to work, reading more for fun rather than a goal, how long steve is willing to talk in a werner herzog accent, and a couple of picks: "What is the Bible" by Rob Bell, and "Thor: Ragnarok" by a thousand people.
\n\nAlso JP accidentally swears for maybe the first time, and he's sorry.
