E138: Sam George - Changing the way we interact with each other
Sam George is an author and communications expert who for decades has been discerning trends before they are recognized and communicating them to the public. In 1995, he was hired to put together the strategy for the campaign that ultimately succeeded in legalizing cannabis in 18 states. His newest book, I'll Get Back to You, explores why unreturned messages drive us crazy and what steps people can take to fix the "dyscomunication crisis." His mission is to help change the way we interact with each other.
