Great episode… I never tire of hearing James’ story.
thanks for the chat Terry

Great Episode guys, learned a lot.
Glad to hear!
Mr L, congrats on a superb podcast. You have a gift for extracting valuable nuggets of wisdom from your guests. I have only just picked up on your show and will be spending the next few days playing catch up.
Cheers
Mark
Hope you enjoy! Curious how did you find it?
Ezra Firestone has the interview you did with him on his blog, which is another new one on my radar, thanks to Mr S (below). You had him explain goal flow in Google Analytics, that really caught my attention. Also, although he seemed to be speaking at 100mph, you managed to steer the interview in such a way that my 10mph brain could take in. Nice work
Yeah Ezra is a machine!
