David Lipsky

Message from Brian. Episodes like this one with David Lipsky are why I do the podcast. Sit back. Take a walk. Drive somewhere. But settle in. Lipsky wrote one of the best books I’ve read in a decade. And he is almost as good at talking as he is at writing. Dive in.   To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit https://podcastchoices.com/adchoices
