In the first duo guest episode ever, I'm joined by Tai Foster & Ben Taylor. Each of them have pretty recognizable names in the marketing space but they join me to talk about what they're working on together in Ren. They came together because of work but became friends because of their love of basketball & decided to come together on a project pushing the culture forward.

We talk about a ton on this episode with both Tai & Ben having extensive experience in brand building, I pick their brain a bit on the subject and they’re work experience. Tai worked with Under Armour during the height of the curry brand & Ben was the first brand Director of Yeezy. You shouldn’t miss this one.
