We are back with our second episode of the Mindless Marketers with our friend of the podcast and fellow podcast host of That's What I Call Marketing, Conor Byrne.

We switched things up in the episode, where this time we selected three marketing topics drawing inspiration from Tom Fishburne's Marketoonist, while we introduced a new segment that we hope you enjoy!
