Answering the questions this week: Sean Dillon
More than 600 episodes of Beyond the Mic with Sean Dillon and he still doesn't know what he wants to be when he grows up. The last time Danny invited me on a podcast of his, it was the podcast's last episode, so his confidence in calling on me again is admirable.
