Dave and I are back in the studio, and we've brought along a friend—Joel J. Miller, Chief Content Officer of Michael Hyatt & Company. Dave and Joel are old pals, having worked together at another publisher back in the day, so listen in as they reminisce, while discuss:
Joel's career in publishing (and what he misses from his time in the industry) One of the authors Joel really regrets working with (but it's cool for him to share this since the dude he mentions went to jail for defrauding his congregation) What are some good books to read to help someone understand the Eastern Orthodox faith Joel's near-encounter with Owen Wilson What were the most controversial and/or fun books Joel worked on The resurgence of the library The importance of editors Our hot takes on Star WarsPlus, a challenge for our listeners: One of you needs to find a copy of this movie and send it to Dave. (Send it to us via work: 1 LifeWay Plaza, Nashville TN, 37234)
