More Episodes

My guest is Matt Friedman, an expert in public relations who lives with type 2 – we get his take on what’s going on in PR these days – with social media, crisis control, and even CHatGPT and AI – and of course we’ll talk about diabetes, and the bone Matt has to pick with restaurants.
