In today's episode, David speaks on the inevitability of change, and shares ways of preparing for, coping with, and capitalizing on that change in your business.

An Introduction
Welcome to the inaugural episode of The Buck Stops Here Podcast! If you're looking for silver bullets, you won't find them here. We have no time for BS and aim to cut through it with wit, sarcasm, honest forthright conversation, and Occam’s razor when need be. At its essence, this podcast is about responsibility for the actions that you take in your business and in your life. It aims to provide real actionable advice in business, marketing, and advertising through interviews, editorial positions on business news, real stories of business challenge and success, and to generally inspire business people to achieve more in their personal and professional lives. So pull up a chair and don’t be a stranger. We would love to hear from you and would like to see what topics you would like to see us cover in the future.
